Rebirth: Dominating the Country

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

The woman's slightly anxious voice pulled the young emperor back from his nightmare.

Mu Bai took the handkerchief wet with warm water from the opponent's hand, and wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead.

"Isn't it a nightmare? You're making things too difficult for yourself, and even the slaves feel distressed." The one who handed Mu Bai the handkerchief was Su Momo who brought him heart-nourishing soup from the imperial dining room.

After Mu Bai ascended the throne, she began to call herself a servant girl again, she was the same publicly and privately, and she didn't miss it for a while from that day on.

As the new emperor, Mu Bai naturally couldn't spare himself to negotiate with Prince Rui's remaining forces.From the beginning until now, the benefits of this mysterious force to him are only reflected in Su Mama, Mu Bai can't see any other benefits, and only hopes that the other party will not make trouble for him.

The organizational forces he doesn't understand are factors of restlessness until they can't be guaranteed to be controlled by him, and they may be detonated at any time.If they cannot be used by him, he will still have to eradicate them one by one when everything stabilizes.

"It's nothing, I just dreamed that Brother Huang came back and had some private conversations with me. You have worked hard these few days, and I understand what they mean."

Mu Bai's upper body leaned back, his feet relaxed a bit, and he adjusted his sitting posture to make himself more comfortable.

"Your Majesty is thinking of brotherhood, and this servant knows it too. I just allow this servant to offend and say that the crown prince is gone in the East Palace. Your Majesty should mourn." This was for her to hear, and even more so for the side attendants. Palace people said.

Mu Bai's eyes darkened, and he didn't answer the other party's remarks, but added another one to his previous words: "In a few days, when the Queen Mother's birthday is over, you still have to go, just say that I agree to give you a little bit of things. Bring it in. There are still three days until the Empress Dowager's birthday, and I will leave the specific matters to you, and you should also recognize the maid who is close to the Empress Dowager. The former emperor has not been there for long, and it is the Empress Dowager's birthday, you should know how to behave, Madam Su."

"My servant knows, and I will definitely live up to His Majesty's great trust." Su Momo washed the handkerchief again in a golden basin filled with hot water, wrung it half dry, and wiped Mu Bai's hands carefully again.

She was a head and a half shorter than Mu Bai, because Mu Bai was sitting at the moment, she bent down, or slightly bent her knees, putting herself in an almost humble position.

Mu Bai looked at the top of her hair, it was black and shiny, and it was not inferior to the young girls in the palace at the age of twenty-eight.

The young emperor watched quietly for a while, waited for his hands to be wiped clean, and then ordered: "Send over the antidote that the elders need. I don't want any troubles to arise over there at this time." .”

When he really rested, the humble female officer Su Momo straightened up immediately after she had shown gentleness to the emperor just now, and she got angry at the maid and eunuch who was serving in the imperial study just now with a frosty face: "This servant Are you all blind, His Majesty is sleeping here, it is so cold, if His Majesty catches a cold, I will see how you explain it!"

In order to prevent the former prince's people from doing some unforgivable things to the new emperor, the servants who can serve by Mu Bai's side are selected from outside, except for the servants of Prince An's mansion. The new servants of the palace, they are not allowed to have any weapons on their bodies, and they are all very young, so there will be no threat to Mu Bai's life.

Today, all the eunuchs and maidservants who are serving in the imperial study are about ten years old, and the oldest one is only twelve. After hearing the news from Madam Su, a shrill voice whispered back. He said: "If so, what if His Majesty was alarmed when we put on clothes for His Majesty? As soon as we got close to His Majesty, he woke up."

Compared with the reprimand and punishment from the nuns, what they were more afraid of was that Mubai's Long Yan was so angry that they would lose their lives.

"Could it be that your hands and feet can't be light, and your movements are so loud that you can wake up your majesty? Your majesty is terrified, and your brains have been taken away by dogs. Don't you know what to think?!"

Mu Bai will indeed react defensively when approached by unfamiliar people. Although the woman scolded her a lot, she only punished them a little in the end. If she breaks this group of people, teach her where to find them again Replace these palace people who have been trained to a certain extent.

The future will be long, let's wait until she arranges the Queen Mother's birthday, but she still has to assign two more capable people to take care of it here, if Mu Bai really suffers from the cold, she should be very distressed.

Regardless of whether Mu Baideng took that position or not, what Su Ying changed was only her verbal address.Whether Mu Bai is King An or the Emperor, in her heart, the other party will always be the child who needs her to take care of him. He may catch a cold if he doesn't pay attention, and he can't be sloppy every moment.

Being an emperor is not so easy, especially when the throne came too suddenly and easily.Even in his dreams, Mu Bai would dream that Mu Yan brought his subordinates back to the imperial city, and those generals who were temporarily attached to him suddenly changed their faces, and all of them opened their mouths wide, accusing him of killing their father and brother, just for the sake of seek the throne.

Su Zhiran, who had vowed to guard him, was shot to death by random arrows in the army brought by Mu Yan and the Imperial Forest Army who suddenly betrayed, and Mother Su was also poisoned, and two lines of blood and tears flowed unwillingly from those gentle eyes.

And he was locked in the stone house under the imperial city. The room was dark, and the sound of water ticking outside the stone wall could be heard.When the door opened, it was Mu Yan's ferocious face, and the other party's handsome face showed what could be called a gorgeous smile, his lips opened and closed, mocking that he was destined not to win.

When he woke up from the dream, he was always drenched in cold sweat. The imperial physician only said that His Majesty was suffering from nightmares and was overwhelmed with worry, so he prescribed some calming medicine to make Mu Bai barely sleep without dreams.

But heart disease still needs heart medicine, Mu Bai can't find Mu Yan for a day, he can't live in peace for a day, he doesn't feel guilty, no matter who sleeps on the side of the couch, an invisible tiger can't calm down and pretend to be dangerous does not exist.

Mu Yan's influence on him was too great, even if he sat on the throne and became the winner on the surface, but as long as he knew that Mu Yan was still alive and well in a place where he could not see, he could not feel at ease.

If he could find Mu Yan, maybe he should poison him in the same way, or shut him up in the room that Wen Yishao told Mu Yan to prepare for him. If he couldn't kill him, he should let him live in his own. Only under the eyelids can one's heart be at ease.But all of this is premised on finding Mu Yan.

After suppressing a small rebellion, several courtiers were mobilized, and some of the people sent to find the "dead" prince were taken back.With the joint efforts of the Zhang family and the pawns laid by Mu Bai, the crumbling imperial court finally stabilized.

Those noisy courtiers were also forced to silence by a note, and until Mu Yan didn't show up, they were still doing what they did when Emperor Qiwen was there, neither provoking nor passively sabotaging their work.

At the beginning, there were six books handed out in succession, one by one complaining about illness, and talking a lot, all of which had the same meaning: "I'm old and weak, I'm afraid I can't come to the court."

A large number of officials followed them to ask for leave. They only asked for sick leave and did not come to the court for several days. The court hall, which can be noisy and noisy, lost more than half of its people. When standing there, the huge Golden Luan Hall seemed particularly deserted.

After two days like this, the new emperor's decree arrived at the mansion of the six ministers, saying the same thing, sympathetic to the elders, allowing sick leave, and a long vacation, because they can no longer use it , Take the money and you can retire and return to your hometown, and then find a blessed land with beautiful mountains and rivers, and take care of yourself for the rest of your life.

As soon as the imperial decree was issued, several ministers packed their robes and entered the palace to beg to see Mu Bai. The new emperor's personal lady said that His Majesty would be resting, so they waited outside the palace for a whole day, and then dragged on. body back home.

On the second day, these people really went to the morning court with their sick bodies, but on the surface they still seemed to be in good spirits. After the court, they immediately rushed to the new emperor to admit their mistakes, and they all patted their chests to promise I have a very strong body and bones, and I can still devote myself to my great northern country for many years.

"I'm confused. I just thought of such a bad idea because I was greedy for the joy of life. I also ask my emperor to forgive me. I swear that I will never do it again in the future!"

A group of old courtiers who usually put on airs are now crying tears, which is not as good as those beauties crying pear blossoms and rain, which makes people feel pity, but it is also very funny, it is best used as a joke.

Mu Bai naturally had a cold face at first, but later he forgave these people, and waved his hands to signal them to go down: "This person is here to stay, but the punishment is still to be punished, and the Qing family will be exempted from their salaries for half a year. Do you have any objections?"

Although Shangshu's salary was quite a lot, it was not much compared to other incomes. Several people immediately shook their heads, expressed gratitude and then withdrew.

The beautiful palace maid serving by Mu Bai's side watched such a good show, poured a cup of tea for the new emperor, and served it to Mu Bai after being tested for poison.

"Master, why don't you dismiss them and save them for trouble?" The maid's voice is completely different from that beautiful face, hoarse and rough. Although she is very good at poisoning and dispelling Gu, Jinxiu has no way to destroy herself. His throat was healed.

Fortunately, Mu Bai, the master, didn't dislike her broken gong-like voice, but when speaking in front of the other party, she tried to use simple sentences to express all her meanings.

"If they are all dismissed, how can I find someone to hold the Zhang family back? Besides, they still have room to use, and they have to deal with it one by one. Now is not the time." The matter is finally partially resolved, and it is rare for Mu Bai to be happy. He explained it to his loyal subordinates emotionally.

After about a month like this, except for those families who were too close to the former prince Mu Yan, the life of the dignitaries in the capital is not much different from the past, whether it is the enthronement or the most unstable period of time. The "dead" crown prince did not suddenly come out to cause trouble for the new emperor, the transition to the throne was natural and smooth, as if the throne had been prepared for Mu Bai.

That person's name seemed to have been deliberately forgotten, no matter whether it was in the palace or the restaurants and teahouses in Kyoto, no one in the market mentioned it, and no one dared to mention the matter of the deposed prince.

Until one day after a month, the people sent by Mu Bai finally found the trace of the "dead" prince. It was in an extremely desolate place. The extremely clever prince seemed to have something wrong with his mind.
