Lord Prime Minister

The case of the Long family has dragged on for nearly a month, and the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple have thoroughly investigated it no less than five times. Even if a stone was missed that year, they would be found out and interrogated again and again, but the emperor will never let go of this matter. After Shangshu mentioned it a few times, he wisely stopped mentioning it, but every few days the emperor suddenly brought it up again, and the case that he thought could be put down has been dragging on, like a stone on his head, always worried that he will relax a little bit Come down and hit yourself in the foot.

Huangfu Yunhua got up from his chair again and walked around the Hall of Mental Cultivation, then sat down impatiently. It's been a full month, and it's been a month with Long Xiu's affairs, and he still doesn't have the slightest intention to come back.

He couldn't wait any longer.Huangfu Yunhua stood up irritably, opened the door to go out, the little eunuch at the door was startled when he saw the emperor coming out, saw that the emperor was about to leave, and hurriedly reported: "Your Majesty, General Long is begging to see you."

As early as half a month ago, Long Xiu came to the palace every day to ask for an audience. Huangfu Yunhua naturally knew what he was doing, he kept walking, and without thinking, he replied: "No see!"

Seeing that the emperor was in a bad mood, the little eunuch bowed his head and saluted, then turned around to return the favor.

Huangfu Yunhua's whole heart is on Mu Zihuai of Ji County, this is the first time he has been away from him for such a long time.

I do like him a little bit.Huangfu Yunhua has known this for a long time, maybe it started in the desert of the dead, maybe it was earlier, he can't remember clearly, he always felt like it and stayed, didn't let him go, tied him up It's good to be around.

I didn't expect that Mu Zihuai's departure would have such a big impact on him this time. What I thought was a bit of liking and affection seems to have exceeded a lot, so much that if I wait any longer, Huangfu Yunhua wonders if he will What did I do wrong again.

He called someone to come and get a carriage, and when he came to his senses, Huangfu Yunhua was already on his way out of the palace.

Prince Minqing's mansion has changed its plaque and turned into the prime minister's mansion. Huangfu Yunhua got off the carriage in casual clothes, saw that the servant at the door hadn't changed, and the mansion looked the same as in memory, and the chaotic mood finally calmed down.

The old butler was instructing his servants to take out the bedding to dry in the sun when the weather was fine. The backyard was covered with white cotton wool, giving off a warm halo in the sun.

"Housekeeper." Huangfu Yunhua smiled for the first time in a month, and called the old man standing in the center of the courtyard.

The old housekeeper turned around and saw that it was Huangfu Yunhua. He was both happy and excited, opened his mouth, and finally just knelt down to salute with a trembling body, crying in his mouth: "Old servant sees the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor!" Long live."

Huangfu Yunhua stepped forward to help him up, and said with a smile: "The butler doesn't need to be too polite, is everything in the mansion all right?"

"It's the same as before. Mr. Mu ordered...Speaking of which, Your Majesty, do you know where Mr. Mu has gone? I haven't seen him for a whole month." The steward quoted Huangfu Yunhua as Sitting down in the hall, he asked.

The smile on Huangfu Yunhua's face froze, "I don't know either, but I will go find her right away."

The housekeeper has served Huangfu Yunhua for more than 20 years, so he can naturally see the disappointment on his face. Thinking of the bad relationship between the emperor and Mr. Mu, after thinking about it, he decided to say: "Your majesty, do you still remember that you were raped a few years ago?" Yao, did you ask me to find something about a young lady?" The housekeeper took a careful look at Huangfu Yunhua, and continued: "Actually, it wasn't the young lady from Qinglianju that day, it was Mr. Mu."

"I know." Huangfu Yunhua wanted to laugh, but found some difficulty, so he had to give up.

As soon as the emperor knew, the butler sighed and said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Mu has suffered a lot these years. When he first entered the mansion, he was still a kid who liked to be lively."

"En." Huangfu Yunhua recalled the first time he saw Mu Zihuai, the other was just a fledgling child, with short hair, a messy bun, a pair of bright eyes curious about everything, All things can be seen at a glance.

Huangfu Yunhua couldn't remember the last time he saw Mu Zihuai's thoughts clearly. He didn't know when Mu Zihuai became deeper and hid his thoughts so deeply that he couldn't even see through them.

"Since the emperor moved to the palace, the mansion has become more and more deserted. Now Mr. Mu won't come anymore. Even Mr. Kong Qing stays behind closed doors and hides in his room all day." The housekeeper hasn't seen Huangfu Yunhua for half a year. , opened the chatter box and kept talking for a moment, suddenly remembered Mr. Kong Qing in the backyard, and hurriedly said: "Now that the emperor is here, why don't I let the old servant inform Mr. Kong Qing, the emperor may not have seen him for a long time."

Huangfu Yunhua was taken aback, if the housekeeper hadn't reminded him, he would have almost forgotten about Kong Qing, he thought about it and shook his head: "No need."

The old butler frowned, with deep furrows forming on his face, and said something else. "Since the emperor is here, please stay a little longer before leaving."

Huangfu Yunhua stayed for dinner, walked around the prime minister's mansion again, and when he left at dusk, just got into the carriage, Kong Qing, who got the news from nowhere, hurried out, holding the window of the carriage , I only knew that I called the prince one after another, and tears fell down.

"Kong Qing." Huangfu Yunhua sighed, the Kong Qing in front of him obviously put some rouge on in a hurry, the bright red robe on his body hung down on the ground, and the appearance of crying with his head up was not as glamorous as he remembered .Maybe it's the rouge soaked in tears, maybe no matter how beautiful a person is, it can't withstand the time, maybe it's because I can't tolerate other people in my heart.

"Why are you crying?" Taking out a handkerchief and handing it to him, Huangfu Yunhua spoke softly and wiped away the makeup on his face.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please bring the villain into the palace. Your Majesty, please bring the villain into the palace." Kong Qing just kept crying, saying her request over and over again. "The villain doesn't need a name or distinction, just let the villain follow the emperor, and ask the emperor to bring the villain into the palace."

Seeing that he couldn't extricate himself, Huangfu Yunhua sighed again. "Why are you doing this? If I don't have you in my heart, even if I bring you into the palace, what can you do?"

Kong Qing froze for a moment, tears fell even more. "It doesn't matter, as long as the villain is with the emperor, the villain is willing to do anything."

Huangfu Yunhua shook his head, and said: "I promise you a hundred taels of gold, from now on you can leave the Prime Minister's Mansion, find a lover for yourself, don't hold on to your life, you will always suffer yourself in the end."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Kong Qing to speak again, he let the groom set off in a loud voice.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Kong Qing chased a few steps behind the carriage, shouting unwillingly.Remembering that the prince went to Ji County for disaster relief a few years ago, I also chased him like this, but at that time the prince would stop and patiently persuade him, saying that it was for his own good to keep him.After the farewell that time, when we meet again, I know that the prince doesn't have him in his heart, but fortunately, he can still be by his side.

Only this time, I'm afraid we really can't see each other again.

Huangfu Yunhua ordered the groom to speed up, and the voice behind him gradually decreased.He could persuade Kong Qing to let go, but Huangfu Yunhua himself couldn't let go.He is different from Kong Qing, what he wants is not just to be with him, what he wants is Mu Zihuai's whole person, and his whole heart can only be on himself.

He hammered the chair with his clenched fist, Huangfu Yunhua

"Stop! Don't go back to the palace for now, go to Ji County!"

Mu Zihuai picked up the teapot from under the tree and touched it to make sure that the tea in it had cooled down. He went to the first built kitchen to fetch some tea bowls and walked towards the main house.

The craftsmen hired by County Magistrate Li built the house very quickly. In more than a month, a small house was built. Although it is not exquisite, it is also solid and firm.

Mu Zihuai distributed the herbal tea to a group of craftsmen, looked around, and found that even the ground had been treated, and he could live in today.

"Mr. Mu, I'll rearrange the ground later so people can live there." The foreman took a sip of tea and greeted Mu Zihuai with a smile.

"Thank you very much. I will personally deliver the wages tomorrow." Mu Zihuai looked around, and the newly built house was empty. "Brother Du, do you know where to buy cheap furniture?"

"I know!" The foreman drank the tea in one gulp and put down the bowl. "I'll take you to have a look when I finish the ground."

"I'm sorry to trouble you." Mu Zihuai nodded, and wanted to add some tea, but the foreman waved his hand and refused, "No, this matter will be settled within a quarter of an hour. Sir, please wait for a while, I will be ready soon."

After waiting for a while, Mu Zihuai followed the foreman to buy some furniture and asked them to deliver it tomorrow, and it was already dusk when he returned home.

Mu Zihuai's house lived alone, and there were no other houses around. You could only hear the sound of gurgling water and birdsong when you walked all the way, so it was a quiet place.

The sky was getting dark, Mu Zihuai carefully walked around the stones on the ground, looked up towards the direction of home, but found a little candle light coming from inside.

Mu Zihuai stood at the door and looked around. He saw a gorgeous carriage not far away. He already had some guesses in his heart, so he hesitated for a while before stepping in.

"Zihuai!"

As soon as he entered the door, he ran into a hug, and a familiar voice came from his ear.

"Your Majesty." Mu Zihuai took a step back and looked up carefully by the candlelight.

Huangfu Yunhua's face was a bit haggard, looking dusty, but there was obvious joy in his brows and eyes.

"Zihuai, I'm here to take you back to Beijing." Huangfu Yunhua said in an almost joyful tone, his face lit up with deep joy.Even if Mu Zihuai broke free from his embrace, he was only slightly lost for a moment, and then stepped forward to hold Mu Zihuai's hand.

"Your Majesty." Mu Zihuai looked down at Huangfu Yunhua's tightly clenched fingers, and took a deep breath. "Since the emperor is here, I will intercede with the emperor and ask the emperor to allow me to resign."

"Why?" The hand holding Mu Zihuai's wrist was clenched tightly, almost breaking his hand. "Wouldn't it be nice to stand shoulder to shoulder with me and to be proud of the world and share the glory and wealth?"

Mu Zihuai frowned in pain, the prince was still the same as before, he held what he wanted in his hand, and if it disappeared, he held it tighter, never caring whether the things in his hand would hurt or not.

"Not good." Mu Zihuai shook his head, "I'll stay here first."

Under the candlelight, Huangfu Yunhua's gaze flickered, he stared fixedly at Mu Zihuai who was bowing his head, and finally said in a compromised way: "You don't need to be an official, you don't need to be a prime minister, you don't need to go to court early, you don't care about the court, as long as you wait By my side."

Muzi's heart was slightly rippling, and he looked up at Huangfu Yunhua, and saw that his eyes were looking at him expectantly, the dark eyes reflected his own figure, making him appear extremely small.

"No." Mu Zihuai shook his head and did not speak.

"Then you don't want to stay by my side?" A surge of anger rolled up from the bottom of his heart, Huangfu Yunhua pulled Mu Zihuai, his body pressed together, the anger made his eyes red, and the last one that was always tense The string almost broke. "You, don't like me?"

Mu Zihuai was stunned by this sudden question, and his heart was like a messy ball of thread, which became more and more chaotic, and finally avoided Huangfu Yunhua with his eyes dodging.

"The emperor should go back, Zihuai just wants to live here."

Huangfu Yunhua narrowed his eyes slightly, suppressing the stormy anger in his heart, restraining himself from hurting the person in front of him again, the fists placed by his side trembled slightly due to excessive force.

"You know what? I'm trying to break your leg sometimes so you can't go anywhere."

Gritting his teeth, each word popped out from between his teeth, a dangerous message flashed in Huangfu Yunhua's eyes.

Mu Zihuai trembled in fright, looked up at Huangfu Yunhua, and found that he was staring at him fiercely, without doubting what he said at all.

"Then I will hate you."

The momentum of Huangfu Yunhua's whole body was lost in an instant, his anger turned into self-blame, and his broad shoulders shrugged, looking a little pitiful. "So you don't hate me now?"

Mu Zihuai didn't speak. He really didn't hate Huangfu Yunhua, but more, he blamed himself for being cowardly and easily bullied, for thinking he would treat him well, and for letting him down again and again.

Huangfu Yunhua saw that he had nothing to say, hope was rekindled in his heart, he took a small step forward, and said excitedly and cautiously: "Can I stay tonight?"
