After traveling through time, I became a thorn in the eyes of the sickly prince

Chapter 173 The An family is so powerful that the dead can be resurrected

He held up the plum blossom, put it to his nose and inhaled it, then shook it like a cicada pupa again. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind, "The fragrance of plum blossom comes from the bitter cold, and the sharpness of a sword comes from sharpening. Hahaha, I finally remembered a sentence." He picked up the wine bowl, took a sip, smacked his pink lips, and put a dumpling into his mouth.

"Good poem!" Murong Yue praised sincerely.

"Everything about your place is good except that your winemaking technology is not very advanced. This wine is like water and I won't get drunk no matter how much I drink." With a look of disgust, he took another big sip.

"Xi'er, drink slowly!"

"Your Highness is a man of great learning. Can you write a poem about plum blossoms?" Mu Xi's cheeks flushed and her eyes were full of little stars.

Murong Yue thought for a moment, then slowly said, "The plum blossom blooms alone, smiling proudly at the frost and its fragrance overflows forever."

"Write a couplet," Mu Xi rolled her eyes, "A beautiful woman is alone, looking at her lover from afar with tears streaming down her face!" After that, she put another dumpling into her mouth, looking very proud. Emma, ​​she finally climbed out from the team of ordinary people.

"That's right," Murong Yue continued, "Plum blossoms, osmanthus, and roses are fragrant in two seasons."

Mu Xi quickly swallowed the dumplings in his mouth and blurted out, "Pig manure, dog manure, yak manure, it stinks everywhere."

Murong Yue frowned slightly, rolled her Adam's apple a few times, and stopped talking.

The atmosphere became awkward.

An Muxi also felt that he was a bit vulgar, and smiled awkwardly, "Hehe, Your Majesty, that doesn't count, Xi'er, say it again," after thinking for a while, he shook his head, "Red wine, yellow wine, and red wine, the fragrance is everywhere, how about this time?"

Murong Yue did not respond and swallowed the dumplings in her mouth, not knowing what they tasted like.

"Your Highness," Mu Xi put down his chopsticks, crawled over like a reptile, raised his slightly drunk face, his eyes full of expectation.

"That's right. It rhymes well and increases my appetite."

The two looked at each other, stared for a second, and suddenly laughed.

Murong Yue held Mu Xi in her arms and let her sit beside her. "You always make me angry, but you also make me laugh. Sing a song for me. I haven't heard it in a long time."

"Humph, I'm not an actor, I haven't finished my drink yet," Mu Xi climbed back to his seat and picked up the wine bowl.

"Your Majesty, let's drink one more bowl. This time, I wish Your Majesty to soar to the sky, have two dragons playing with a pearl, have three sheep bring prosperity, have wealth from all directions, have five blessings come to your door, and have everything go smoothly..."

Seeing that Mu Xi was talking endlessly, Murong Yue reached out to grab her wine bowl.

"Xi'er drank too much!"

"I don't have much," Mu Xi avoided the big hand that was stretched out, leaned back to eat, smacked her pink lips, picked up the apple and took a bite.

Prince Duan had no choice but to light the oil lamp and place it on the table.

The two ate and talked for a long time. After a while, a shadow appeared on the wall, shaking its head, as if thinking about something.

"A few plum blossoms bloom alone in the corner of the wall in the cold winter. From afar I know it is not snow, only the subtle fragrance comes!"

"Not bad, another one."

applause.

"Haha, my IQ finally takes the top spot. I'm surprised that the plum blossoms are so late, and I'm rushing to peek in the snow. The lower branches are visible, but the higher ones are far away and hard to see. We are all ashamed of exposing our wrists, and we give way to each other, saying that our waists are thin. We must go back to cutting and picking, and learn a few skills."

Poems about plum blossoms burst out from Mu Xi's mouth one after another. Murong Yue stared at Mu Xi's tipsy eyes and doubted her life again. How could this woman be so talented and yet so vulgar?

Mu Xi and Prince Duan lived a comfortable life in the abandoned city of Yazhou, while they were arguing fiercely in the court of Kyoto.

Kyoto.

The palace hall.

All the ministers shouted "Long live the emperor" and knelt on the ground in salute.

Emperor Kangning sat upright, scanning every face in the hall, and finally fixed his eyes on the face of the second prince Murong Wenzhuo.

"My dear ministers, please stand up!" Emperor Kangning made a lifting gesture.

Sun Chongshan, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, stepped out of the queue and said, "Your Majesty, the Second Prince has made great contributions in resisting the invasion of Tianqi this time. Moreover, the Second Prince's character, knowledge, and strategy are superior to those of the Crown Prince. I hope Your Majesty will reconsider the candidate for the crown prince."

"We second the motion!" The second prince's supporters and the Sun family's party knelt on the ground one after another.

The prince frowned slightly, staring at Emperor Kangning's face, afraid of missing every micro-expression. Ever since Sun Chongshan learned that Sun Yaozong was killed by him, he has been against him in every way. If he had known this, he would not have framed An Muxi. Now it seems that he has shot himself in the foot.

Prime Minister Chu walked out of the queue, knelt on the ground and saluted.

"Your Majesty, this is absolutely unacceptable. In every dynasty, the selection of a crown prince must not be indecisive, so as to avoid turmoil in the court and instability among the people!!!"

"I second the proposal!"

"I second the proposal!"

A large number of Chu family officials and supporters of the prince knelt down.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the hall fell to a freezing point, and one could hear a pin drop. Everyone was watching their noses and eyes, fearing that they would stand on the wrong side and lose their heads. A few neutral parties dared not even breathe, fearing that they would be questioned.

Emperor Kangning looked at the kneeling ministers, and there was anger in his eyes. Every day, they kept arguing about the issue of appointing a new crown prince, which was annoying. He looked at the second prince,

"Zhuo'er, what do you think about this?"

The second prince walked out of the queue and bowed. "Father, I believe you will make a judgment. However, when I was fighting with Tianqi, I seized a large number of prisoners and weapons. After careful inspection, I found that the weapons in their hands were sold by my Great Xia Kingdom. In addition, on the way back to the capital, I encountered a bomb attack. I hope that Father will thoroughly investigate this matter and give me justice!!!"

General Sun Chongwei coughed lightly and walked out of the queue.

"Your Majesty, murdering the Second Prince and selling weapons to the enemy are both serious crimes. This matter concerns the survival of our Great Xia and cannot be taken lightly. In addition, I was wounded by an arrow in the Suizhou battlefield and my life was hanging by a thread. It was Princess Duan who rescued me. At that time, the Tianqi Kingdom attacked our army camp and the army was in chaos. I have not thanked you in person until now!"

Upon hearing this, the people in the hall immediately started talking:

"What? Princess Duan is not dead. The bomb is only owned by the Crown Prince?"

"That's right, I'm so lucky!"

"It turns out that the Sun family wanted to put Princess Duan to death, and this time they are asking for a reward on her behalf. The crime of assassinating the Second Prince is punishable by death!!!"

……

How could Emperor Kangning not know that the Second Prince was attacked by a bomb when he returned to the capital? If this matter is not handled properly, it will trigger a mutiny. There is also news that An Muxi and Prince Duan were not burned to death. Yesterday, the Ministry of War reported this matter and said that Prince Duan took the initiative to report to the Yazhou government office. For some reason, I feel cheated. After thinking about it for a long time, my eyes look behind the hall.

“Zhongzhou Sima, you are so capable of the An family that you can even revive the dead!”

An Jinshan's face turned pale, he walked out of the queue hunched over, knelt on the ground,

“Your Majesty, I have just learned the news that the princess has been resurrected. Since the princess is not dead and has cured General Sun’s arrow wound, it must be the protection of the Great Xia Kingdom and the grace of Your Majesty.” I had just been promoted and it was my first day in court, so why did the emperor criticize me?
