In the yard, a middle-aged woman in dark brown brocade clothes sat next to a corpse covered with a white cloth, crying her heart out!

"My poor grandson!"

When a white-haired old woman saw the corpse of the middle-aged woman in front of her, her legs suddenly went weak and she sat on the ground.

"The youngest was such a good child, how could he just leave like that? He didn't even have a chance to enjoy anything! His father always beat him! How tragic!"

"Uncle, you died so tragically. You still haven't given me the sword you promised me!"

"Uncle, please don't die. You haven't become a hero yet, how can you die..."

The sound of crying and wailing echoed throughout the entire courtyard. Shen Qiuchi stood in the corner, and for the first time, cracks appeared on his usually expressionless face.

Why are the Mu family members crying in the yard?

"Okay, stop crying. My son found the source of the poison and gave us clues. He also saved the princess. He died a worthy death." Although he said so, the sharp-eyed Shen Qiuchi still saw the tears flowing from Prime Minister Mu's red eyes.

"Prime Minister Mu, Madam Mu, don't be so quick to cry. I have something to tell you." When Xiao Qi got the news and rushed over, Madam Mu and Old Madam Mu were already crying so hard that they were out of breath, and Old Madam Mu was almost fainting.

Shen Qiuchi stood behind the Mu family, ready to explain, but Madam Mu asked first: "Your Majesty, how can you say that! The person lying there is your cousin, how can you let us not cry!"

From ancient times to the present, people have always said that emperors are cold-hearted, but the Mu family never thought so.

It’s because Xiao Qi has lived in the Mu family since he was a child, so it can be said that he grew up right before their eyes!

But the words Xiao Qi just asked made the Mu family feel disappointed.

It seemed like they only truly got to know the emperor in front of them on that first day!

The emperor's heart is as unfathomable as a needle in the sea. After all, everything is different when you become an emperor. Alas!

"This...are you sure this person is Yun Zhou's cousin?"

"How can it not be? The boots next to it belong to my Yun Zhou." Xiao Qi was startled by Mrs. Mu's roar.

This was the first time in his life that he knew that Mrs. Mu had such a loud voice.

"Your Majesty! My Mu family has always been loyal to our country and our king!"

"Yunzhou's youngest son grew up with you and admired you very much. Now he has lost his life protecting the princess. Why do you say such chilling words!" Old Madam Mu used all her strength to hit the ground hard with her crutch.

"No, I want to say..."

“What else did you say? Stop it. You only say things that I don’t like to hear.” Madam Mu’s chest heaved violently with anger.

"Auntie, can't you just listen to what I have to say?"

"Humph……"

……

"You, what did you say...Mu Yunzhou, is dead?" Shen Qingxu had just dressed and came out of the room when she heard the bad news.

Xiao Qi was interrupted again when he was about to speak!

Shen Qingxu took heavy steps and walked towards the corpse covered with white cloth in disbelief.

"Qingxu, it's not like that." Shen Qiuchi hurried to Shen Qingxu's side. Just as he was about to reach out to support Shen Qingxu's shaky body, he didn't expect that Shen Qingxu had already arrived in front of the Mu family.

"Ahem. Prime Minister Mu, there may be some misunderstandings in this matter."

"What?" The old Prime Minister Mu raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Qi.

"Cousin Yunzhou is not dead. He is resting in the side hall now." Xiao Qi coughed lightly twice. The man's figure looked obviously different from Mu Yunzhou. No one knew who threw Mu Yunzhou's boots aside. Why did the Mu family recognize the wrong person? I think they must have seen the boots next to him.

"Your Majesty, do you mean that I would mistake my own biological son? Yunzhou is my youngest son! I have held him in my hands for fear of breaking him, and held him in my mouth for fear of melting him. Even if he turns into ashes, I will never mistake him!" Madam Mu said, and she was about to cover her face and cry in despair again.

Her poor son!

"Mom... I'm here..." Mu Yunzhou had a pale face and disheveled hair, which was very different from his usual appearance. At this time, he and Xu Xingyi supported each other and walked into the yard.

Madam Mu was startled by the sudden voice of "mother", and she was even more frightened when she saw the person who looked exactly like her son.

"you you you you!"

"Well, well, well, you are such a good emperor, you actually found someone to impersonate my Yunzhou..."

"The real disappointment is not in starting a war!" Madam Mu pointed at Xiao Qi with a trembling hand. At this moment, she no longer cared about the crime of insubordination!

She only knew that her poor son was truly pitiful.

I will never stop even if I die!

As soon as a person dies, a replacement appears!

It was all the Mu family's fault for not being able to judge people well. If they had discovered earlier that Xiao Qi was such a cruel and cold-hearted person, they would definitely not have allowed Mu Yunzhou to have too much contact with the royal family!

It's a pity that Xiao Qi still calls her aunt and treats her like this.

Xiao Qi frowned. It seemed that the brains of the Mu family were all on Prime Minister Mu!

The entire Mu family doesn’t even have a complete brain!

"Mom, I don't want to die. Is it too late for me to go home and get out of the family tree?" In this world, his mother is the first person who dares to point her finger at the emperor and accuse him!

Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Mu hurried over to Mu Yunzhou's side.

"Youngest son? You are not dead?" Prime Minister Mu was the first to react and frowned in confusion. Such nonsense that was out of the family tree could only be said by his youngest son, which meant that this man must be his son.

If this is Mu Yunzhou, then who is the one lying on the ground?

"Dad, I just injured my shoulder. I won't die." Mu Yunzhou couldn't understand why everyone said he was dead.

Did he live at the wrong time?

How about he die first?

Wait until the time comes to revive?

"Shut up, you are not my youngest son, you fake! My youngest son's body is still warm, I won't allow you to pretend to be him!" Madam Mu was so emotional that she hugged the corpse on the ground and cried heartbreakingly.

I heard there is a kind of disguise technique in the world that is difficult for ordinary people to tell the real from the fake!

"Grandson, is it really you?" Old Madam Mu still had a trace of rationality left. She tremblingly got up from the ground and walked towards Mu Yunzhou with staggering steps.

"Grandma, it's really me, I didn't..." Before Mu Yunzhou could finish his words, he felt a chill in his lower body.

Everyone looked over subconsciously.

"Grandma, is it too late for me to die now?"

Xu Xingyi dug his toes tightly into the ground to prevent himself from laughing out loud. While he was pulling up Mu Yunzhou's pants, he said, "It's probably too late to die now."

Fortunately, Madam Mu was old and not very strong, so she only pulled off Mu Yunzhou's trousers, leaving him with only his underwear to cover his shame.

"It's Yunzhou! It's really Yunzhou! The birthmark on his thigh can prove that he is Yunzhou!" Old Madam Mu was overjoyed and spoke incoherently with joy.

The feeling of loss and recovery enveloped the hearts of everyone in the Mu family.

"Then, who is he?" Mrs. Mu looked at Mu Yunzhou in confusion, and then lifted the white cloth covering the man.

A strange face suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

“What a sin! What a sin!” Madam Mu bowed and respectfully put the white cloth back on the body.

"This is the guard Jiang Ping whom we went to rescue today. He was injured by the thieves and died from excessive blood loss. We wanted to send him out of the palace for a proper burial, but who would have thought that just as he was covered with a white cloth, Madam Mu came with people." A palace maid lowered her head, sobbing and explaining timidly.

God knows what's going on with the Mu family. She was still cutting candles in Concubine Liang's palace tonight. Jiang Ping's good brother went to inform her to come to Fengyi Palace as soon as possible, saying that Jiang Ping was dying and wanted to see her for the last time.

She rushed over in a hurry, and before she could cry for a while, a large group of people from the Mu family rushed in, and then pushed her aside like crazy, surrounding Jiang Ping's body. She tried to get in several times but couldn't. She wanted to explain, but was interrupted by their crying!

The Mu family member, Jiang Ping, who cried his heart out, cried even more heartbreakingly than her lover.

The scene was too chaotic just now, so she could only wait on the side and let the Mu family finish crying first, and then she would follow to see her brother Ping off for the last time.

The Mu family members looked at each other in bewilderment. What a huge mistake, it was so embarrassing. The table where the guard who was carried away was lying was too gorgeous, and their kid's boots were placed next to it. It was hard not to recognize the wrong person.

"Ahem, Mu Yunzhou, listen to my orders." The emperor signaled the eunuch to read out the order.

"Yunzhou is here." Mu Yunzhou knelt down, and the other members of the Mu family also knelt down to listen to the order.

"Mu Yunzhou is a brave and righteous man. He risked his own life to find the source of the poison. He has saved the emperor and I grant the Mu family a gold medal of immunity from death!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace. Long live the emperor!"

At this point, everyone dispersed and planned to go back to their own homes and find their own mothers.

"Golden medal of immunity from death?" Mu Yunzhou looked at the gold medal that the eunuch brought over on the tray. He held it in his hand and looked at it for a long time. Just as he was about to bite it to see if it was real, Prime Minister Mu took it respectfully and told Madam Mu to keep it well.

"Dad, Dad, that's my golden ticket to immortality..."

Prime Minister Mu looked at his little son jumping up and down and sighed!

Alas, his silly son, is it possible that the golden medal of immunity from death was bestowed upon your father by the emperor through you?

"Prime Minister Mu, the emperor has ordered me to take you to the Qianqing Palace to discuss important matters." The eunuch Liu Fu leaned over and whispered in Prime Minister Mu's ear, then took Prime Minister Mu to the Qianqing Palace.
