"If I want the throne, I can fight for it myself. Why should I go through so much trouble to cooperate with the Lige tribe? I cannot bear the charge of collaborating with the three kingdoms."
After Mu Yunyu finished speaking, he threw away his pen, walked over and sat opposite Ali Zhuomu, waiting for his next words with a confident look on his face.
But in Ali Zhuomu's eyes, Mu Yunyu looked like a fool who didn't know his own position.
Suddenly, Ali Zhuomu laughed out loud.
"Your Highness made it sound so easy, but from what I know, your Emperor Damu only wants to train his crown prince to be his successor, and you don't seem to be within his consideration."
"How can Lord Ali, an external envoy, guess what the emperor is thinking? Moreover, the prince and I have a deep brotherly relationship. My brother will inherit the throne. Apart from envy, I want to assist the prince well. There is nothing else I want."
Mu Yunyu looked at Ali Zhuomu with a fake smile, and pretended to have no other thoughts while speaking.
"Really? Then why is Concubine Shu still worrying about the prince's wife?" Ali Zhuomu was very disdainful of Mu Yunyu's behavior of being too concerned about face and suffering.
These words touched Mu Yunyu's sore spot. Mu Yunyu's emotions visibly fluctuated, and his eyes showed irritation and anger.
My mother was so stupid that she actually went to talk about such a private matter with Juqu from another country. So what even if Ali Zhuomu was his uncle?
If you are not careful, you will be controlled by others and lose the initiative.
Mu Yunyu had been thinking about it since Ali Zhuomu first approached him.
He first married Princess Arina, and then used Li Ge to get rid of Mu Yunchen. After Mu Yunchen's death, Mu Peiyun became a widow.
Princess Arina seems to be a person who does not follow the rules, so she can be divorced at will based on the seven grounds for divorce and sent back to the Lige tribe, leaving the position of principal wife vacant.
And if he did not despise Mu Peiyun because she was a widow at this moment, and welcomed her as his principal wife, the Prime Minister's Mansion would surely be grateful to him and remain loyal to him.
By then, with Mu Peiyun as his principal wife and the support of the Prime Minister's Office, the most likely person to inherit the throne of Mu Kingdom would be himself.
How could Mu Yunyu refuse such a win-win solution?
However, if he wanted Ali Zhuomu to be the knife in his hand, an obedient knife, he had to take the initiative, which was why he rejected Ali Zhuomu again and again.
But mother...it's fine if you can't help me, but why do you always find things for him to do?
In this way, Ali Zhuomu knew his own weaknesses and how he could take the initiative into his own hands.
Seeing that Mu Yunyu didn't speak for a long time, Ali Zhuomu felt even more proud. He thought, how could a boy in his early twenties have the ability to fight with him.
"Why, if Prince He still doesn't want to listen to me, I will go find Crown Prince Damu. I think Crown Prince Damu will not refuse such a good proposal."
"When the time comes, Your Majesty, please don't blame me for not considering the relationship between uncle and nephew."
Hearing Ali Zhuomu's absolute tone, as if he was really going to look for Mu Yunchen, Mu Yunyu began to panic and lost his composure.
"Wait, I didn't say I didn't want to."
After getting the desired result, Ali Zhuomu smiled evilly and said, "Your Majesty, you must be more decisive next time. If you had agreed earlier, the princess would not have gone to live in the prince's mansion."
Mu Yunyu's face turned pale and blue. He couldn't bear to see Ali Zhuomu's smug face, but he had to.
"Then will the princess still be willing to marry this king?"
Mu Yunyu heard about Alina moving to the Prince's Mansion as soon as he left court yesterday.
But he only thought that he could use this opportunity to make Mu Yunchen unhappy, and let Mu Peiyun see Mu Yunchen's infidelity, so that there would be a gap between them, and maybe Mu Peiyun would think of his own good.
For a moment, Mu Yunyu didn't think so much.
But now, it is obvious that Alina has chosen Mu Yunchen, so how can he marry Princess Alina?
When Ali Zhuomu saw that he agreed, he stopped hesitating and his eyes were full of conspiracy.
"You don't have to worry about this, my lord. As long as you agree to cooperate with me, the princess will have no say over it."
Mu Yunyu nodded. Since they wanted to cooperate with him, they had to show some sincerity. This was not something he should worry about.
Mu Yunyu didn't want to be like a peacock, trying to please that princess.
As a great prince of Mu, it was really a loss of face for him to bow to a princess of a foreign country, not to mention that she was just a woman.
But after a while, Mu Yunyu realized it.
"Master Ali, I have already agreed to cooperate with you, but I don't know what Master Ali wants me to do after the matter is accomplished."
Although he didn't want to help Ali Zhuomu do anything, he still had to ask about the purpose of this cooperation.
If the stakes were small, then Ali Zhuomu's promise to help him kill Mu Yunchen would be unbelievable. If the stakes were large...
Ali Zhuomu's expression was a little distorted and he laughed sinisterly.
"We'll talk about it after it's done."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will not be polite to you. You want to be in power, and I, Li Ge, naturally have someone who wants to be in power."
After Ali Zhuomu and others left, Mu Yunyu sat alone in the room for a long time, with confusion and helplessness in his eyes.
But when he came out again, he had regained his gentle appearance, his eyes were warm but firm, as if he had made some kind of decision.
On the street, Mu Peiyun was wearing a light goose yellow silk dress, with the lively Arina beside her.
Since coming to Zhongdu, she has never had a good time strolling around the city.
It was a rare day when the troublemakers were not around, so Alina impatiently pestered Mu Peiyun to bring her out.
But her tone was very arrogant: "Crown Princess, I want to go to the street to buy some things. As the host, you should entertain me well."
During the two days that Alina stayed at the Prince's Mansion, Mu Peiyun had already known that she had no bad intentions and only thought that she was a child with a bad temper.
After lunch, he used some vegetarian wine and brew to pack up briefly, then took Alina out of the house. She just wanted to go out for some fresh air.
As soon as she was on the street, Arina had a great time. When she entered the city that day, she only took a quick tour and had not noticed that there were so many new things in this capital city.
Not long after, Alina was attracted by the street performance not far away, and ran forward with Mu Peiyun in her arms.
Alina had learned martial arts, and the shortcomings of Mu Peiyun's pampered life were fully exposed at this moment.
It seemed like she was forcibly dragged away by Arina. Mu Peiyun couldn't help but sigh that the princess had great strength. She was so tired that she wanted to go home immediately.
"Sister, what is this?" Before leaving, Mu Peiyun specifically told Alina not to call her the Crown Princess outside, otherwise with Alina's noise, she might get into trouble.
Mu Peiyun finally calmed down, looked in the direction Alina pointed, and smiled.
"This is Huagu Opera, a form of opera performance in which common people combine singing, dancing and acting to tell strange stories."
