Reborn as a King in the Hand

"I believe you."

The question Mu Rugui imagined did not appear, Xia Chaosheng lowered his head again, held Uncle Jiu's injured hand, and whispered softly, "Uncle Jiu, who is Xia Yu talking about?"

His calmness infected Mu Rugui.

Mu Rugui told him Yue Ji's origin in detail.

"You said, the person who is pregnant with the prince's flesh and blood is called Yue Ji?" Xia Chaosheng raised his head in surprise.

Mu Rugui thought he had heard of Yue Ji, nodded and said, "Yes, it's Yue Ji."

When Yue Ji first arrived in Shangjing, it caused a small commotion.

Because she has Di Ren's blood flowing through her body, she has a tall nose bridge and light green eyes.

Di people from Youyun Sixteen Continents often invade Daliang, and women with Di people's blood are exiled in Shangjing, and can only be reduced to the land of fireworks.

He just remembered that in his previous life, Yue Ji was the most beloved concubine of the commander of the Jinwu Guard.

Back then, when he married the crown prince, Yan Yuhua, the commander of the Jinwu Guard, brought Yue Ji to congratulate him. At that time, Yue Ji seemed to be pregnant with a child.

"Is the son in her womb really the Crown Prince's?" Thinking of this, he couldn't help asking.

Mu Rugui changed his expression slightly, instead he held Xia Chaosheng's hand, and said solemnly, "I won't lie to you."

He also disdains to use such inferior means to cut off the former affection between them.

Xia Chaosheng belatedly realized that Uncle Jiu had misunderstood.

He quickly explained in a gentle voice: "Uncle Jiu, I don't doubt you, it's just..."

Xia Zhaosheng hesitated for a moment, and tentatively explained what had happened in his previous life in a different way: "I once heard from my father that the commander of the Jinwu Guard is interested in Yue Ji."

Xia Rongshan naturally didn't say such a thing, he just wanted to find a reasonable excuse.

As expected, Mu Rugui was not suspicious, and asked Hong Wu to go out of the house to investigate the news.

"Uncle Jiu, if the commander of the Jinwu Guard is really interested in Yue Ji, how could Yue Ji become the prince's concubine and conceive the prince's child?" The more Xia Chaosheng thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and pulled Mu Rugui's hand Yixiu said that he was going to see Yue Ji.

Mu Rugui thought for a while and nodded in response.

Yue Ji is pregnant with the flesh and blood of the Tian family, and has a special status. It is inconvenient for Mu Rugui to arrange her in the servant's residence, but to set up another courtyard for her to live alone. It is precisely because of this that Xia Yu, who sneaked into the palace, saw her. misunderstood the relationship between them.

After passing through the courtyard, passing the side courtyard where the servants lived, and even the warehouse, they stopped in front of a clean and tidy side hall.

"My concubine liked to paint here before she was alive." Mu Rugui said in a low voice, "In spring, this place was once full of peach blossoms."

It's a pity that after the first emperor left, the virtuous concubine became sick with grief and went with her. The peach trees here withered overnight, and Mu Rugui had no choice but to order people to turn this place into a courtyard, and it has been desolate ever since.

Yue Ji lives here now.

"My lord, my concubine." She showed her bosom just now, and she was dressed in common clothes, saluting to them.

Xia Chaosheng carefully looked at Yue Ji's appearance, confirmed that she was the person who married the leader of the Jinwu Guard in the previous life, and asked softly: "Do you know the leader of the Jinwu Guard, Yan Yuhua?"

He only mentioned it tentatively, and Yue Ji was so excited that she shed tears.

It turned out that she had met Yan Yuhua as soon as she entered Shangjing, and she had been waiting for her lover to redeem her body. Unexpectedly, a crown prince broke out halfway and forced her into the East Palace.

Yue Ji is a singer with Di Ren's blood, and she has no one to rely on in Shangjing. She wants to ask Yan Yuhua for help, but she is trapped in the back house, unable to deliver the news, until she becomes pregnant, is drugged and thrown into the river , was rescued by Bai Liu, and it was considered escape.

"I already have the flesh and blood of His Highness the Crown Prince in my stomach, yet he is so cruel that he threw me into the river!" Yue Ji touched her lower abdomen, crying like pear blossoms, "I really hate him!"

"...It's just a bitter word, and I still think that I am greedy for glory and wealth, marrying into a wealthy family, but I don't know that the person who kidnapped me is his most trusted His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

The relatives around the prince took Yue Ji away, and the Fireworks did not dare to say more, even if Yan Yuhua came to ask in person, they could only say with a bitter face that Yue Ji had been redeemed by the nobleman.

In the world, how many people are richer than the commander of the Jinwu Guard?

Yan Yuhua was in pain.

He can't go to the house of the children of the imperial city, he can only let people investigate secretly.

However, he trusted Mu Ruqi too much, never thought that Yue Ji was in the East Palace, even if Mu Ruqi took Yue Ji to the Lishan paddock, Yan Yuhua didn't notice it.

"What kind of virtue and ability can I have, and I can get help from the Ninth Prince?" Yue Ji finished crying, wiped away her tears, and knelt down on the ground, "If the prince is sent by me in the future, I will be smashed to pieces, I will not hesitate!"

"I just hope that after the matter is completed, the Ninth Prince can let the concubine meet Yan Lang."

It's a sensible one, no wonder the commander of the Jinwu Guard, who is used to beauties, is tempted.

Xia Chaosheng bit his lower lip, rolled his eyes a few times, and sneaked a look at Mu Rugui.

Mu Rugui was also looking at him.

He is always looking at him.

Xia Chaosheng's cheeks were slightly red: "Uncle Jiu..." "Do whatever you want." Mu Rugui touched his earlobe, "With me, don't be afraid."

Xia Chaosheng's face turned even redder, he covered his mouth with a handkerchief, coughed a few times, calmed down, and helped Yue Ji up from the ground: "Perhaps, there is really something that needs you."

Yue Ji understood: "But according to the order of the princess."

"Do you want to go back to Yan Yuhua, the commander of the Jinwu Guard?"

Yue Ji nodded vigorously: "Although I am pregnant with the flesh and blood of the prince, I only have Yan Lang in my heart."

"Do you want to take revenge on the prince?"

"My concubine thinks! If it wasn't for him, my concubine and Yan Lang fell in love with each other, how could I fall into the river and almost kill two people?"

Between questioning and answering, Xia Chaosheng had confirmed Yue Ji's determination.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and in the blink of an eye, he connected several things together.

It is not a matter of overnight for the prince to lose his sacred heart.

The most urgent task is to let Mu stay in Shangjing as scheduled, so that he cannot take the credit of Uncle Jiu.

Yue Ji is an introduction that can keep the prince.

Xia Chaosheng slowly stuffed his fingers into the armholes, revealing half of his snow-like white wrists: "You have been in the capital for a long time, and you have stayed with the prince for a while, you should know that even if this matter is stabbed In front of His Majesty, His Majesty, considering the status of the crown prince, can at most reprimand him a few words."

"As for the courtiers...who will investigate? Not even your Yanlang will know that the girl Di who was almost drowned was you."

How could Yue Ji not understand?

She knew early on when she was taken captive into the East Palace that she could never shake the prince by herself.

"Your Majesty will never uphold justice for this concubine, and ask the concubine to point out the way for this concubine!"

"Fifth prince." Xia Chaosheng sighed, "In today's court, only the fifth prince can fight against the crown prince. If he uses your affairs as a raft, his followers will stand above the court and defend you .”

"It's just that before that, I'm afraid you still won't be able to meet Yan Yuhua."

The commander of the Jinwu Guard has a very close personal relationship with the prince, and can even be said to be a close minister of the emperor and the prince.

Xia Chaosheng didn't dare to bet on Yue Ji's status in Yan Yuhua's heart.

If Yan Yuhua was willing to give up a female Di in exchange for the trust of the Tian family, then even with the help of the fifth prince, this matter would surely become a farce that would not hurt or itch for the prince.

Maybe, Yue Ji would even be brutally murdered by her ex-lover the moment she walked out of the palace.

Yue Ji comprehended quickly, frowned and thought for half a stick of incense, and nodded readily: "I understand."

No matter how much she trusts Yan Lang, she must first consider the lives of herself and the baby in her womb, and dare not trust her.

"It's so good." Xia Chaosheng saw that there was no hesitation between her brows, and he relaxed slightly, and reminded, "I shouldn't be in a hurry to send you to the fifth prince's residence, but the prince will return to Youyun Sixteen soon. Zhou, if you stay alone in the palace, you will always be in danger of being discovered, in case the prince becomes malicious again..."

"Princess, you don't need to talk anymore." Yue Ji interrupted him, two flames of hatred ignited in her eyes, "I can't wait to stand in front of His Highness the Fifth Prince right now, tell what I know, and then ask that cold-hearted How can you get away with it!"

So it can be concluded that Yue Ji was secretly sent to the fifth prince's mansion by the people of the palace late at night.

And Xia Yu, who was thrown in the mass grave, slowly woke up.

He rubbed his bloody cheeks, stood up tremblingly, staggered over the rotting corpse, and yelled ecstatically.

He is not dead!

He is still alive!

He...he escaped from the palace!

Xia Yu tightly covered her mouth before she let out a second scream.

In the distance, where the lights were brightly lit, it was the bustling night market in Shangjing. Two lines of hot tears rolled out of his eyes, and soon, tears flowed down his cheeks.

He hated the prince who tricked him into the palace, but now, the only one who can help him avenge him is the prince.

So Xia Yu, who was exuding a stench all over his body, ran wildly. When passers-by saw him, they avoided him. What's more, they poured swill on him.

When Xia Yu ran to the East Palace in embarrassment, the stench from his body was disgusting even a dog.

"Who dares to break into the East Palace at night?" The attendants of the East Palace noticed him and walked over quickly. Before he got close, his eyes were blackened by the stench, and he backed up again and again, "Where did the beggar come from? Get out!"

"I...I want to see His Highness the Crown Prince..." Xia Yu murmured with trembling teeth, "I want to see His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"His Royal Highness, are you a beggar like you who can see it?" The attendant couldn't bear the stink, and for a moment he couldn't do anything about Xia Yu, so he drew his sword from his waist and yelled, "If you don't leave, don't blame me for being rude! "

Xia Yu had just escaped from the palace, so he naturally didn't want to lose his life, but he also didn't want to give up the opportunity to take revenge on Mu Rugui, so he stubbornly stood in front of the East Palace, yelling at the top of his voice.

"I want to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Let me meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

…………

It was also Xia Yu's life that should not be lost. Just when the attendant was about to cut him down by the sword, the prince's carriage came slowly from a distance.

Mu Ruqi heard Xia Yu's call from a long distance away.

After all, it is the person whom he favored in the previous life. Although he no longer regards him as Bai Yueguang, he always feels unbearable: "You..."

Mu Rugui lifted the curtain of the car, and the pity that was full of pity disappeared after seeing Xia Yu's bruised face.

If he hadn't been familiar with Xia Yu's voice, he would have wondered who this foul-smelling, stooped beggar was!

"His Royal Highness!" Xia Yu didn't notice the change in Mu Ruqi's attitude at all. He rushed over, "His Royal Highness, you sent someone to send me to the palace, you..."

"Come here, come here!" Mu Ruqi was in a daze for only a moment, and the stinky swill was stained on the hem of his clothes. He was so angry that he almost fainted, and he didn't care about his past life, so he asked his servants to pull Xia Yu away from him. Go, "I'll kill him..."

When the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back abruptly.

"That's all." Mu Ruqi called the attendant wearily, "Save him, wash him up, and bring him to Gu to see what he has to say."

Xia Yu was brought into the East Palace just like that, was washed roughly by the attendants with cold water, changed into a rough linen clothes, and was thrown in front of Mu Ruqi like a piece of rag.

"What do you want to say to Gu?" Mu Ruqi stared at his male queen in a previous life with a complicated expression.

His face was ruined, his voice became hoarse, and the most frightening thing was that he couldn't straighten his waist.

Xia Yu gritted her teeth and got up from the ground, kneeling heavily in front of Mu Ruqi: "His Royal Highness, I... I saw a Di girl who was pregnant with a child in the palace!"

"What?!" The teacup in Mu Ruqi's hand fell to the ground with a bang.

"It's absolutely true!" Xia Yusheng was afraid that Mu Ruqi would not believe it, and kowtowed as he said, "Your Highness, the Ninth Prince has been stationed in the Sixteen Continents of Youyun all year round, and he has a sworn feud with the Di people. The child's daughter Di, doesn't that mean...he is suspected of having an affair with Di Ren?!"

"Your Highness, what the Ninth Prince has done is treason!"

In fact, the war between Daliang and Youyun Sixteen Continents has been going on for a long time. Di people are also common in Daliang. Countless articles can be made.

Mu Ruqi's eyes lit up.

He didn't want to be deprived of the throne again, if he could use this matter to suppress Uncle Jiu, why not do it?

"You can see clearly, it's really Di Nu?"

Xia Yu gritted her teeth and said, "Her eyes are green, she can't be mistaken, she is definitely Di Nu!"

Di people all have green eyes.

Mu Ruqi was completely relieved.

He didn't associate Di Nu with Yue Ji at all. Firstly, he buried Yue Ji in the river, and secondly...he made all men in the world as cold as himself.

Just like he didn't believe in the reason why Mu Rugui rebelled in his previous life.

Is it worth it for a Xia Chaosheng?

Mu Ruqi felt that Uncle Nine Emperors was just coveting the throne under the guise of revenge.

Is there anything more enticing than imperial power and wealth?

"Let's go down." Mu Ruqi thought about it, but he didn't show it on the face, so he called his followers and asked them to inquire about the news.

The servants of the Eastern Palace had been busy all night, and finally found some useful news.

First, Xia Chaosheng was imprisoned by the Nine Princes, and he was afraid that he would return to the west soon;

Second, in the fifth prince's mansion, there was suddenly a pregnant woman named Di.

"Chaosheng is really not easy." Mu Ruqi sighed endlessly, "But... where did you say that there is an extra pregnant Di girl?"

Followed by: "Five Prince's Mansion."

"Fifth brother..." Mu Ruqi didn't pay attention to the fifth prince who also has Di Ren's blood, and shook his head amusedly, "I think he is confused, and the Nine Emperors dare to take him in?"

"Your Highness Fifth Prince, I'm afraid you want to win over the Xuanjia Cavalry?"

"Stupid stuff." Mu Ruqi rolled his eyes in disdain, leaned on the couch, and said to himself, "Don't worry about him, when the time comes, Father and Uncle Nine Emperors will be accused of colluding with foreigners, and he won't be able to please him!"

"Then, does His Highness still need his subordinates to continue to investigate the fifth prince's residence?"

"No need." Mu Ruqi consciously predicted things like a god, and the old god waved his hand on the ground, "They want to hide it, but we don't... I will go to court tomorrow, and I will report this matter to my father, and let the world judge!... …By the way, if you want to spread the news all over the capital, you must make the noise known to everyone.”

It's all true, Mu Rugui will definitely be cast aside by thousands of people, and will definitely be severely punished by his father.

Mu Ruqi thought farther and farther, and even fantasized about the scene where his father was furious, deprived Mu Rugui of the military power, and handed over the black armored cavalry to him.

Jin Wuwei plus Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, Daliang... No, Youyun Sixteen Continents, Jingye Nineteen Counties, which one does he still care about?

At the same time, in the palace, Xia Chaosheng was playing chess with Mu Rugui.

He claimed to be superb at chess, but in front of Mu Rugui, he was killed like a child who just learned to play chess.

"Oh, I made a mistake." Xia Chaosheng was in a hurry to regret the move as soon as he made a move.

Mu Rugui just smiled and said nothing, letting him make trouble.

Xia Chaosheng pressed the chess piece where he wanted to play, raised his eyelids, and looked at Mu Rugui with a smile: "Uncle Jiu, your people are following Xia Yu?"

"Ah."

"He went to the East Palace?"

"good."

"I don't know if the prince heard that there is a pregnant Di girl in Uncle Jiu's mansion, would he think of Yue Ji who was thrown into the river by him to try to destroy her body?" The white son in Xia Chaosheng's hand fell with a crisp sound.

Xia Yu, who was deliberately let go, didn't know Yue Ji's name, nor did she know that the prince had ever had a concubine Di Nu Ji.

Therefore, he would only treat Di Nu as Mu Rugui's favor, and use this matter to claim credit for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Mu Rugui's slender fingers randomly dropped a piece, and the white piece was swallowed by the black piece without making a sound.

"will not."

How can a cold person shed tears for a chess piece?

When Xia Chaosheng heard this, he first smiled, his eyes fell on the chessboard, and then he sighed angrily.

He stared angrily at the chessboard, struggling for a moment, trying to regret the move again.

Mu Rugui pressed his hand: "It's getting late."

"Okay." Xia Chaosheng immediately threw the chess piece in his hand back into the chess world, "I didn't lose, it was Uncle Jiu who stopped me from playing."

"Well, you didn't lose." Mu Rugui took his hand and walked towards the couch, intentionally changing the subject, "There are also people around Yue Ji secretly protecting... The fifth prince has already called several relatives into the mansion overnight, I want to come, In the next few days, many memorials to impeach the prince will be written."

"If the prince really thinks that Yue Ji is Uncle Jiu's concubine... maybe he is also writing a memorial." Thinking about the scene, Xia Chaosheng found it funny, lying on the couch still dishonest, rolling around with the quilt in his arms, "Which of them will speak first in the court tomorrow?"

Mu Rugui took off his coat, lifted the quilt, held Xia Chaosheng down, and said helplessly, "Don't make trouble."

"Uncle Jiu, don't you think it's interesting?" He hooked Mu Rugui's neck, trembling with laughter, "Prince now, I'm afraid I think I can join you!"

Of course Mu Rugui also found it interesting, but no matter how interesting things were, it couldn't compare to Xia Chaosheng, who was half undressed and full of smiles.

Snow fell on red plums, and speckled petals shattered on the side of his slender neck.

Many people in Beijing have special hobbies, and they prefer thin and weak young people. Mu Rugui thinks that the current Xia Dynasty is beautiful, but it lacks the wanton publicity and peace and joy before taking Yizi medicine.

How do you look, how do you feel distressed.

Mu Rugui leaned over and blocked his mouth.

The extremely lingering and domineering long drive finally cut off Xia Chaosheng's laughter.

He covered half of his flushed face with the quilt, obediently curled up beside Uncle Jiu, and fell asleep peacefully.
