As soon as Mu Yunchen returned to the East Palace, a servant came forward to report: "Your Highness, the Ninth Prince is here and has been waiting for a long time."

"Cloud Sequence?"

As expected, as soon as Mu Yunchen entered the front hall, he saw a man in royal blue clothes with his back to the door, imitating his usual behavior, with his hands behind his back and looking up at the big words on the hall in front of him.

"When did you come?"

Mu Yunchen walked straight over and sat down, then picked up the teacup prepared in front of him and took a sip. He couldn't help but nodded. The tea in his palace was still the best. The tea in the Huguo Temple was really bitter.

"Brother, you are finally back."

Mu Yunxu smiled instantly, ran over and sat next to Mu Yunchen, and pretended to pick up the tea.

But after taking a sip, he immediately put it down, muttering: "I really don't know why you have to drink tea every day. In my opinion, it is not as delicious as the milk tea made from sheep milk powder tribute from the Western Regions."

Mu Yunchen was amused and said in a coaxing tone to a child: "When you grow up, you will understand that tea has a thousand flavors and you can never taste them all."

Yes, he is just a child, isn't he? He is not even sixteen yet.

Mu Yunxu is not Mu Yunchen's biological brother, but the son of a palace maid. When he was young, even the palace maids and eunuchs did not take him, the so-called prince, seriously.

Mu Yunxu's mother endured until he was six years old, but finally couldn't bear it anymore and jumped into the well.

It was a serious crime for a concubine to commit suicide, but the crime did not extend to a young child. The empress was kind and kept the child by her side because of his young age, so that he could be a companion to Mu Yunchen.

I thought that the Queen and Mu Yunchen would look down on him like everyone else.

But what he didn't expect was that when the Queen brought him back to Fengyi Palace, she changed him into a clean and neat brocade robe and took him to Mu Yunchen's study.

When he first met his third brother, Mu Yunxu stepped back unconsciously, his fingertips turned white, his eyes were filled with fear, his mouth couldn't help but tremble, and he couldn't utter a word.

But the Empress standing behind him blocked his way, bent down and whispered softly in his ear: "This is your third brother, would you like to let him play with Yun Xu in the future?"

Mu Yunxu was at a loss for a moment. He wanted to break free from the "shackles" of the Queen, wanted to leave this place where there was no place for him, and wanted to find his mother.

Mu Yunchen put down the writing in his hand, walked around from the other side of the desk, put his hands behind his back, and had a faint smile on his face.

There was no sympathy or contempt in his eyes that he saw in others. Instead, there was joy and kindness. It was that look of a little adult that made Mu Yunxu remember it for the rest of his life.

"Yun Xu, I will teach you martial arts, and no one will be able to bully us in the future. I will also teach you how to read. Let's write a lot of articles and show them to our father, okay?"

Yes, he asked him to call him brother, not Your Highness the Crown Prince or Emperor Brother.

Since then, there has always been a happy little boy following behind Mu Yunchen.

Time passed so quickly, and the little boy has now grown into a little adult, his every move and gesture are exactly the same as Mu Yunchen's.

"Brother, why didn't you take me with you when you left the palace? I wouldn't have to stay in the palace all day and get bored.

I'm not even sixteen yet, but my mother has already started arranging a concubine for me, and I was hoping you could take me to hide away."

"Really? Yun Xu is indeed not a child anymore. It's time to think about it. When you pay your respects to your mother the other day, you need to remind her to put the matter of your concubine on the agenda."

Mu Yunchen deliberately teased the person in front of him and enjoyed himself very much.

"Brother, you absolutely cannot do this. How can you be so unkind as to put your brother in dire straits?"

Mu Yunxu was very frightened. He couldn't stand that woman being around him in a coquettish manner all day long. He got goose bumps all over his body.

"Hehe." Mu Yunchen chuckled. Children are really funny.

Mu Yunxu paused for a moment, then suddenly remembered why he came to the East Palace to find Mu Yunchen so early, and hurriedly said: "Royal brother, you should take care of yourself. I heard that your Crown Princess has been decided."

Hearing this, Mu Yunchen raised his eyebrows. This was not the first time someone had mentioned this matter in front of him.

"Oh?! Who told you that and where did you hear it from?"

"Where else do you need to hear it? Isn't everyone in the palace talking about it? Before you returned to the palace, your father summoned the prime minister and the minister of rites to the imperial study.

Not long after that, my father went to Fengyi Palace again. I watched my mother send my father off, and the smile on her face did not diminish at all. What else could this be but good news?"

Mu Yunxu couldn't help but sigh: "I think my mother is particularly satisfied with your future crown princess, that's why she is so happy."

In fact, what Mu Yunxu wanted to ask more was, his royal brother had previously been deeply in love with the Prime Minister's daughter. How did he feel now that his wish had come true?

But unfortunately, his brother had forgotten about it after he woke up, so he didn't dare to ask him again.

There was no emotion on Mu Yunchen's face. No wonder his fifth brother was so anxious to meet the Prime Minister's daughter today and instigate her to refuse the marriage.

It turned out that there was no other way. It seemed that his father had already made up his mind. Now if he wanted to disrupt his marriage with the Prime Minister's daughter, he could only start from there.

But how could Mu Yunyu be so stupid that he could come up with such a method, instigating the minister's daughter to refuse the marriage and disobeying the imperial decree. Which fool would listen to such a serious crime?

Mu Peiyun in the previous life: ...Yes, yes, I am a fool.

Seeing that Mu Yunchen didn't respond for a long time, Mu Yunxu stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his eyes and shouted: "Third brother, you are so beautiful that I can't speak?"

Mu Yunchen came back to his senses and looked at Mu Yunxu with a serious expression: "Can you memorize the "Lanting Preface" today? After a quarter of an hour, write it down in the study and bring it to me for inspection."

Mu Yunxu was stunned and curled his lips. He should have known not to come to inform him next time.

Thinking of this, Mu Yunxu stood up and walked towards Mu Yunchen's study, looking back every few steps.

Even though the Third Imperial Brother was good to him, he was not nice either. He kept an eye on his studies and martial arts and swordsmanship every day. Even from the day when the Third Imperial Brother was named the Crown Prince and moved to the East Palace, he never let him slack off for a single day.

Bi Qi, who had just walked in, looked at Mu Yunxu's pitiful appearance and couldn't help but say: "Your Highness, the Ninth Prince is still the same as before, and he listens to you in everything."

Mu Yunchen sighed slightly and said: "He doesn't listen to me, he just knows right from wrong." Then he turned his head and glanced at Bi Qi: "Is he back?"

Bi Qi bowed his hands and answered seriously: "Your Highness, just now, I heard that the Fifth Prince ordered people to check the dignitaries who went to the Huguo Temple today. They should know that you have also been to the Huguo Temple."

Mu Yunchen nodded thoughtfully: "Then I guess his feet are not swollen."

Bi Qi: ...
