General Raiders

They didn't like each other again.

Mu Ziyue waited for a long time, and when he fell asleep, there was already a person standing in front of the dragon couch. Mu Ziyue pulled himself together and reluctantly said: "Chengze, you are here."

Mu Chengze bowed to him, and chose a seat not too close or far from him to sit down. Mu Ziyue didn't speak, and Mu Chengze didn't speak.

Muzi sighed more and more. He called King Ning over to restore some of the father-son relationship, but he didn't know until he came that he hadn't been close to this son for many years, and the estrangement was deep. .

The candlelight flickered in the sleeping hall, shining on King Ning's indifferent face.The sooner Mu Zi couldn't remember Chen Pin's mediocre appearance, he tried to retrieve some memory from King Ning's face, but found it was futile.

After a long silence, Mu Ziyue said abruptly: "Jian Guo...you did a good job."

"The ministers taught it."

There was no joy on Mu Chengze's face, as if none of this had anything to do with him.

Mu Ziyue couldn't say a word of praise next, and sat for a while speechless, and finally realized that the relationship between King Ning and him could only be like this. It is passed on to you, how do you plan to deal with Cheng Pei?"

Although the imperial doctor didn't say it clearly these days, Mu Ziyue knew better than himself, he probably won't get better from this disease, Mu Ziyue was depressed for a while, had to accept the reality, and thought about his own funeral.During his reign, scandals such as the killing of the crown prince and the treason of the fourth prince have occurred one after another. If another seventh prince dies badly and his descendants wither, how will the history books evaluate him?All his life as a king, what he cared about most was his own reputation. It is probably impossible to clear his name, so he can only take a step back and hope that the historians will be merciful, saying that he is not strict in teaching his children, but he was not very honorable when he took the throne. Will it be said that there are many evils and that the retribution is not good?

However, King Ning would not care about his reputation behind him.This is also the reason why Mu Ziyue is extremely unwilling to choose King Ning. How can a prince who is not close to him be expected to succeed?

Mu Ziyue thought that no matter what, he had to raise the throne of his younger son, so that King Ning could not easily punish Mu Chengpei for his crimes. Apart from King Ning, he only had Mu Chengpei as his son. If Mu Chengpei can respect the king in the end, maybe he can still remember his father-son relationship and take care of him a little bit.

Thinking of this, Mu Ziyue said: "I have made a decree that he can't enter the court anyway, and he can't block your way, so just ignore it."

The emperor's meaning was already very clear, and most people would be flattered to accept it without hesitation, but Mu Chengze said succinctly: "If people don't offend me, I won't offend others."

To him, Mu Chengpei wasn't even a fart. The few times he made a move, it was Mu Chengpei who committed suicide.Mu Chengze will never forget who he is just because of Mu Ziyue's temporary overtures. He has not come to this point because of the emperor's favor.

He knew that there was a person standing just across the wall. That person had been supporting him with his arms, protecting him, and sheltering him from the wind and rain. Family affection and love have long been indistinguishable. It moved him, and the emperor was nothing.

"You mean, you don't want to let Cheng Pei go?" Mu Ziyue frowned. He knew the enmity between King Ning and King Wei very well, so he subconsciously reprimanded, "You... how could I have such a ruthless person like you?" son!"

Mu Chengze never cared about what the emperor thought, saying he was ruthless, Mu Chengze was a little funny, the most ruthless person in the world actually accused him in turn.

"Father, rest well."

The cursing had begun, and Mu Chengze couldn't bear to listen any longer. Before Mu Ziyue could react, King Ning quickly turned around and walked out of the hall.

Yun Xi guarded for a long time under the shadow of the wall, and there was no movement in the bedroom. Mu Chengze walked over slowly, his expression as usual, Yun Xi still felt that A Ze was not in a good mood.

Yun Xi stepped forward swiftly, and when Mu Chengze saw him, the snow and ice in Mu Chengze's eyes melted instantly.

"sorry to keep you waiting."

Only in front of his cousin, Aze is still the little prince who can cry, laugh and hurt others.

Yun Xi shook her head lightly, and under the cover of her robe sleeves, she took King Ning's hand and gave him a little warmth with her warm palm.

Mu Chengze said, "Cousin, don't you want to ask?"

"what?"

"Ask my father what he said when he saw me, and about Brother Wuhuang..."

Mu Chengze couldn't hear what the subordinates were whispering all day long, but they could guess it. Even Mu Chenghao, who grew up with him, would be suspicious of him.

"Ace, what do you want to say?"

King Ning has already supervised the country, and Yunxi can no longer always follow behind in everything, even though deep down in her heart, she still worries about Aze.

He also wondered why Cheng Huan asked himself to be the successor for no reason, but if it was said that A Ze pushed Cheng Huan, it was unlikely, A Ze never suspected others, if someone really did something bad to him, he would clean it up directly, Cheng Huan was not him Even against his opponent, he didn't even bother to use tricks to bypass Cheng Huan.

Mu Chengze stopped and said, "I want to say that Father is testing me. As for Brother Five, it's really not me."

He just wanted to give his cousin an explanation.He doesn't care what other people think.

Yun Xi nodded, even if A Ze didn't say anything, he wouldn't make wild suspicions, but A Ze actually explained it seriously, Yun Xi had a thought, and scratched A Ze's palm under her sleeve to reassure him.

At this time, someone trotted over from behind and called out in a low voice, "Your Highness, General."

Mu Chengze and Yun Xi both turned their heads, and Wang Xiaohuan had already rushed to him and saluted.

Wang Xiaohuan quickly said: "Your Highness, the news just came that Concubine Zhou of the Wei Palace is pregnant for one month. Your Majesty's spirit has improved a lot after hearing this good news."

"Ok?"

Yun Xi didn't realize it for a while, what did Mu Chengpei's side concubine Youxi have to do with them?

Yun Xi didn't know about it, but Mu Chengze knew very well that it was absolutely impossible for King Wei to make his side concubine pregnant.Moreover, when a woman is pregnant, she will wait until the fetus is stable before revealing it to the outside world. Mu Chengpei's side concubine was only a month pregnant, so she hurriedly reported it to the emperor, which is unusual.

It seemed that Mu Chengpei didn't want to admit defeat easily.

The emperor's heir is a very important point when the emperor chooses the prince.Before, because King Ning and King Wei had no heirs, and both of them were young, the emperor's heirs did not seem to be important, but so far, apart from the emperor's favor, there is another merit in Wei Wang's face.

97. Cheng Luo

The news that Concubine Zhou was pregnant almost caused Mu Chengpei to crush his teacup.At that time, Qi Guozheng was discussing matters with Mu Chengpei, and when he learned that his daughter was happy, Qi Guogong was very excited. Since the emperor announced that King Ning and King Fu will supervise the country, many people who had previously stood for King Wei quietly withdrew and separated from King Wei. If there is no relationship, Qi Guogong is Wei Wang's family, and he can't withdraw if he wants to withdraw, so he can only go to the dark one by one.But besides helping King Wei think about how to please the emperor more, he has no other plan.The flesh and blood in Zhou Yuer's belly made Qi Guogong's eyes light up. King Ning has no heirs. King Wei has a queen at this time, and the emperor will definitely favor King Wei. This child may have a bigger fortune in the future, and his daughter may return. A child is more valuable than a mother.

Qi Guogong talked eloquently, Mu Chengpei's expression changed, he only thought about his side concubine, and said goodbye in a hurry without saying a word to him, and went to Zhou side concubine's yard after returning home.Zhou Yu'er was sitting on the bed and thinking about something anxiously, when she saw Mu Chengpei coming, she hurriedly got up to greet her, Mu Chengpei's hand hanging by her side trembled, and she swung her palm suddenly, Zhou Yu'er's tender cheeks suddenly swelled took a slice.

A group of maidservants who were beaming and wanting to congratulate King Wei retreated in fright, Zhou Yuer held her face and burst into tears.

"Bitch!" Mu Chengpei said angrily, "This king will marry you even if he offends his father, but you are repaying him like this?!"

Zhou Yuer was sobbing, she was a woman like a dodder flower, she had nothing but love, Mu Chengpei didn’t know why she always ignored her recently, Zhou Yuer felt wronged, and as time passed, she complained to a guard who often talked to her in the Wei Palace Sincerely.But as soon as that man heard that she was pregnant, he had already fled, Zhou Yu'er couldn't leave Prince Wei's mansion, so he could only stay and beg Mu Chengpei to forgive him.

She told about the vigorous love with that guard. She had similar feelings with Mu Chengpei once, and she felt that Mu Chengpei must understand her difficulties and let her stay and fly with her lover, but Mu Chengpei But kicked her to the ground.

"Whore, bitch!"

Mu Chengpei kept cursing, grabbed Zhou Yu'er by the hair, and dragged her all the way to get the sword. He was going to kill the prostitute and the child in her womb.He was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. He completely forgot that even though Zhou Yu'er was a side concubine, she was also on the jade certificate. How could he let him deal with him at will?

"Chengpei, stop now, calm down!"

A gray-clothed man wearing a bamboo hat broke into the door without telling him. Mu Chengpei was about to scold him, but the man quickly took off the hat and nodded to Mu Chengpei. Mu Chengpei immediately opened his eyes, Unbelievably said: "Brother?!"

The person who came was Mu Chengluo who was expelled from the imperial city because of the prince case.

After leaving the imperial city for these years, Mu Chengluo's appearance has changed a lot. He is wearing coarse clothes, his hands are weather-beaten and extremely rough, and the eyes of the gentle gentleman in the past have become extremely cloudy.

"Brother, why are you back?"

Mu Chengluo stepped inside, closed the door with his backhand, and said in a low voice, "Chengpei, I know you and King Ning are the only ones left now, so I'm here to help."

"Really?" Mu Chengpei was both surprised and delighted, "Brother, with you here, why should I worry about things failing?!"

The Duke of Qi is loyal, but his strategy is not good enough after all. Mu Chengpei has no particularly capable people under him. Together, they can't even deal with a single King Gong, let alone confront King Ning directly.But Mu Chengluo is different. When he was still the third prince, he was the most talented of all the princes, and even the emperor was full of praise.
