After He Xiang left, Su Mu looked at the imperial decree placed on the table for a long time, then suddenly swung his sleeves and swept the imperial decree to the ground, got up and ran to the backyard of the Princess Mansion to find Chi Ranzhi.

Glimpse glanced at each other, then reluctantly stepped forward to pick up the imperial decree and put it away, and followed Su Mu to the backyard.

At this moment, in Yaoyue Dianchi Ranzhi's study, Gong Nai, Gong Song and other faces were present, and the atmosphere was very silent and chilling.

Su Mu ran into the study and came to Chi Ranzhi's side, pulled Chi Ranzhi's sleeve, and asked eagerly, "When will we arrange to fake death and go to Yuanyang?"

Chi Ranzhi sat on the grand teacher's chair, looked at Su Mu, pulled Su Mu to sit on his lap, and said lightly: "We can't fake death and go to Yuanyang."

Su Mu stared at Chi Ranzhi in puzzlement, "Why?"

Chi Ranzhi glanced at the others, and everyone exited the study.

The emperor celebrated the Longevity Festival, and a son suddenly appeared, and the news that he was sealed as the prince on a jade plate overnight spread quickly in the capital.And this son is the son-in-law of the previous seventh princess?

There was a lot of discussion between the ruling and opposition parties, and it was not until after the early court that the important ministers got the emperor's version of the truth about this matter——

When Concubine Xuegui gave birth to the prince and passed away, the emperor found a wandering fairy teacher to tell the little prince's fortune.The little prince is destined to be robbed, and needs to exchange identities with others, and the child who is transferred to the palace must dress up as a boy, so that the little prince can grow up safely.After growing up, it will be exchanged after the emperor's birthday this year, good luck.

According to fortune calculation, the child to be exchanged with the little prince is in Anguo Gongfu.

At that time, An Guogong's wife had a miscarriage and adopted an old friend's newborn son as her own.After receiving the imperial edict, Mrs. An Guogong understood the righteousness and exchanged the two children.Unexpectedly, in the end, the gangster plotted against him, causing the little prince to be exiled outside.

Fortunately, now finally returned safely.

The emperor decreed to reward Anguo Gongfu.

The ministers have nothing to say.

Those who wanted to participate in Chi Ranzhi's disguise as a woman to deceive the king, all returned in defeat.

Only Su Mu and Chi Ranzhi were left in the study. Chi Ranzhi looked at Su Mu, reached out to stroke Su Mu's hair, and said calmly, "Because the timing is wrong."

Su Mu: "..."

Chi Ranzhi: "According to the original plan, just fake death and run away. At this time, it arouses suspicion, and the follow-up troubles will continue.

The emperor's eagle, dog, dragon shadow guard, and inner government inspector have now sent many more people to monitor the Princess Mansion layer by layer. The Duke of Zhen and various forces in the court are also paying attention to this place.Let’s not talk about whether the suspended animation plan can be successfully implemented under so much attention. Even if it is implemented, no one will believe it at this point in time, and there will be layers of cards. We will face endless investigations—there will be endless troubles , there will never be peace. "

Su Mu thought about that scene and fell silent.

After a while, Su Mu said: "How about we wait for this period of time before implementing the plan? After a few months, or, after a few years?"

Chi Ranzhi kissed his forehead lightly, and then continued to analyze him in detail with great patience:

"The reason why the previous plan is sure to succeed is that besides the timing, there are also human factors. The emperor seems to have favored me, but in fact he has secretly let the Dragon Shadow Guards try. treasure.

If I die by accident, the treasure will be completely lost.Even if there is a slight doubt, but in order to find me who has died with a high probability and the treasure that has no trace, the huge manpower and material resources will be weighed against the treasure...

As he said, the Qian Dynasty is not what it was 20 years ago.Now under his management, Wufu Minfeng, he is indeed not short of money.Even if the investigation is done in a small area, it is unlikely to take a lot of effort. Instead, these manpower and material resources will be used where they are more needed.

However, you are different. "

Su Mu: "???"

Chi Ranzhi stroked Su Mu's long hair lightly, "The current emperor has a warm face and a cold heart, but anyone with eyes can tell that his love for you is beyond words, to the point of not hiding it. This is probably your father and son. Otherwise, do you think that anyone who asks him for a marriage will agree to it?"

Hearing this, Su Mu touched the bandage wrapped around his neck, and looked at Chi Ranzhi accusingly.

You call this liking?

Chi Ranzhi looked at the injured part of Su Mu's neck, narrowed his eyes slightly, and after a while, he continued:

"He is such a person, he will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. The reason why he gave you the jade certificate last night, canonized the prince, gave you the prince's mansion, and gave you countless rewards was because he was afraid that I would take you away, and he was also warning me. The degree of importance. No matter where you go, no matter how much manpower and material resources are spent, you will never let it go."

Su Mu touched the wound on his neck that was still hurting. After a long time, he raised his eyes to look at Chi Ranzhi. His eyes were crystal clear, and his face was sincere and eager to try. "Then let's put him..."

Su Mu wiped his neck with gestures.

Chi Ranzhi looked at Su Mu with a smile on his brows and eyes.

"No, I want to help you and inherit his throne."

Su Mu: "??? No!"

Su Mu looked disgusted, "What do I want the throne for? You said you would take me to the ocean! Be free! Your words don't count!"

As Su Mu talked, he stared at Chi Ranzhi aggrieved and angrily.

He thought of a way to solve the trouble of the emperor so that he could go to the ocean, but this guy wants to put him on the throne?

Chi Ranzhi went to kiss Su Mu's forehead, but Su Mu avoided it.

Su Mu stared at him with burning eyes.

Chi Ranzhi was helpless: "Instead of being endlessly pursued by the superior, it is better to replace it directly."

Su Mu was silent for a long time, thinking, it is not impossible to be the emperor, after becoming the emperor, no one can control him.

However, this does not conflict with the emperor who is about to click.

Su Mu looked at Chi Ranzhi suspiciously, "Then let's force the palace directly and let him... abdicate?"

Chi Ranzhi nodded, "Yes, it is possible, and with the influence and strength of the identity of 'Gu Linyuan', it is absolutely possible to give it a try. But——

To avoid future troubles after being forced into the palace, the emperor and prince must be killed.

This is not enough, but the forces behind them have to be killed, and the blood is flowing like a river.And you will inevitably bear the eternal infamy of killing brothers and fathers.This is not counted, today's emperors and people want to, after the palace is forced, the people and the local tyrants are bound to rise up against you under the impetus of people with good intentions.The people have lost all support, and all they can do is continue to suppress.

When the war is together, the lives will be ruined, and the surrounding countries will take the opportunity to invade. "

Chi Ranzhi asked Su Mu: "Are you willing to see this? Are you willing to bear such infamy?"

Su Mu was silent. After a while, he raised his eyes and looked at Chi Ranzhi. Just as he was about to say something, Chi Ranzhi said first:

"Even if you want to, I can't bear it."

Chi Ranzhi kissed Su Paopaoyamu's forehead lightly, "If I haven't met you, I've been forced to a certain point, maybe I can give it a try, I don't care. But I won't let you bear any infamy."

Su Mu was silent, he looked up at Chi Ranzhi, "But you said you wanted to take me to the ocean."

Chi Ranzhi: "..."

Su Mu: "The emperor is in the prime of life, with a strong physique. At least he can live for 40 years. Even if I can become the emperor, I will already be an old man! Do you want to take me there after 40 years!"

Chi Ranzhi: "..."

What did Su Mu think of: "How about we take the initiative to hand over the treasure, give up everything, explain to him, let him not chase us, okay?"

Chi Ranzhi sighed: "How is this different from raising one's hand to surrender and abolishing one's own martial arts? If you expose all your cards, you can only walk into a desperate situation where you can be slaughtered, and your final destiny is to be destroyed. In a short period of time, Gu Linyuan's identity cannot be revealed. That is the last hole card and retreat."

Su Mu lowered his head and remained silent for a while, "Then what do you want?"

Chi Ranzhi looked at Su Mu deeply, and said slowly: "Since ancient times, sage emperors must have a pure and innocent appearance."

Chi Ranzhi looked at Su Mu seriously, "Since you want to be an emperor, you must be a sage monarch who has never been seen before or since. I will assist you, step by step, make solid achievements, and take your time. Even if you are Little old man, I will take you to the ocean too."

Su Mu looked at Chi Ranzhi, the good expectations for the future in his heart were shattered, and he fell into infinite confusion. He was a little angry and aggrieved.

Although he knew that Chi Ranzhi was doing all this for him, he was still very angry when Chi Ranzhi broke his promise!

But can't be angry.

Su Mu looked at Chi Ranzhi, at a loss.

Chi Ranzhi stroked Su Mu's head gently, and walked out of the study with Su Mu in his arms.

Outside the study, Nanny Gong, the eight faces, and many Anbu leaders that Su Mu had never seen before were there.

Chi Ranzhi let go of Su Mu, walked up to Su Mu, knelt down on one knee facing Su Mu, and bowed his head: "See young master!"

The others followed Chi Ran and knelt down, bowing their heads: "See the young master!"

Su Mu shivered suddenly and couldn't help taking a step back.

He stared at the top of Chi Ranzhi's head for a while, and then at the top of other people's heads.

Her lips were pursed tightly, her face was pale and her eyes were full of bewilderment.

Looking at these people, it seemed that there was an invisible burden on his shoulders for no reason, and the sudden fate suddenly weighed on his unprepared head.

It was a fate he never imagined.

Su Mu took another step back.

Chi Ranzhi looked up at Su Mu.

Su Mu stared at Chi Ranzhi, wanting to find something, but at this moment, Chi Ranzhi's eyes made him unable to see through.

strangeness.Bottomless.It also seems to be a hidden danger.

Just like the first time I saw you.

Su Mu took another step back.

At this moment, Chi Ranzhi got up and flew up with Su Mu in his arms. Su Mu quickly turned around and wrapped his arms around Chi Ranzhi's waist.

Chi Ranzhi took Su Mu to the top of Huiyue Tower, gently dug out Su Mu who was buried in his arms, and made Su Mu turn to look into the distance. He put his hands on Su Mu's shoulders and stood there. Behind Su Mu, he stood facing the wind.

There was a heavy snow yesterday, and the whole capital was covered in silver, which was too beautiful to behold.

However, Su Mu only felt cold.

Snow doesn't cool down, snow turns cold.

Today's weather is gloomy, there is no sunshine, only the bitter cold wind blowing from the north.

Standing behind Su Mu, Chi Ranzhi held Su Mu's waist with his left hand, straightened his right arm, pointed in the direction of the palace, and said lightly:

"I will help you go to the top of the cloud."

"do not be afraid."

"I'm here."

Su Mu was silent for a long time, turned his head, and looked up at Chi Ranzhi.

Chi Ranzhi looked down at him.

Su Mu remembered what Chi Ranzhi said when the two stood on the deck overlooking the endless ocean—no one can arrange my fate.

At that time, Chi Ranzhi's eyes were so bright that he couldn't look away for a long time.

But now, that light is gone.

Chi Ranzhi bowed his head to the fate that he had been fighting against, and said with a smile that he wanted to assist him to ascend the throne, and he took the initiative to get into the shackles with a smile.

Just because this is the best of all paths.

Su Mu stared at Chi Ranzhi in a daze, as if his heart had been hit hard by something, it was sore and painful.

Su Mu looked at Chi Ranzhi's phoenix eyes full of his figure, and couldn't look away for a long time.

During lunch time, Su Mu was very preoccupied and had no appetite. After eating, Chi Ranzhi took Su Mu's nap, but Su Mu couldn't sleep, so he played with Chi Ranzhi's hand.

After a while, Su Mu suddenly said, "Tell me about the princess of the ancient country."

Chi Ranzhi was silent for a moment, and said: "The ancient country is a powerful country in the west of the Qian Dynasty. Although the territory is only half the size of the Qian Dynasty, the land is fertile, the water and grass are abundant, farming and animal husbandry are very suitable, and the soldiers are strong. They are good to their neighbors and have been with the Qian Dynasty for generations Friendly. Princess Gu Luoxue of the ancient country was in poor health, and the climate of the ancient country was not conducive to recuperation. She was sent to the Qian Dynasty when she was young, where the medical skills were developed and the climate was more suitable. The secret dowry is run by the queen's confidant, that is, Wen Shuqing's mother..."

Su Mu felt drowsy as he listened.

Chi Ranzhi said softly: "Mu Mu, don't worry, when the time comes, everything from the Wen family will be returned to you. It will be more wealth than treasures. Wait a little longer."

When mentioning the treasure, Su Mu thought of cutting off his hands and feet again.

Chi Ranzhi said that he lied to the emperor and the others, so...

He looked at Chi Ranzhi: "What is the method to open the treasure?"

Chi Ranzhi looked at him and smiled.

"Before the death of the princess of the ancient country, she explained how to open the treasure. My mother, as the leader of the Anbu, took the initiative to avoid suspicion. The princess handed over this secret to the head of the Wen family. He died of a sudden illness soon, but he was actually killed by someone. He didn’t even have time to tell the way to open the treasure. The position of the head of the Wen family is passed on from daughter to son, and the brothers of the Wen family don’t even know the existence of the treasure and the origin of the Wen family. .”

Su Mu was at a loss, "How to open the treasure?"

Chi Ranzhi looked at Su Mu's right hand, which was playing with his fingers, "All the bloodlines of the ancient kingdom that can open the treasure have a secret, don't you have one too? Maybe that is the key to opening the treasure."

Su Mu paused, let go of Chi Ranzhi's hand, silently hid his hands under the quilt, and looked up at Chi Ranzhi innocently.

Chi Ran smiled.

Su Mu blinked: "So, you already found out? When did you find out?"

Chi Ranzhi, "Let me think about it. Was it when you demolished the Minghua Palace on the second day of your wedding and almost killed me? Or was it when you demolished the Princess Mansion recklessly? Or..."

Su Mu shrank his neck, slowly, slowly retracted into the quilt, and fell asleep.

After waking up in the afternoon, Su Mu didn't see Chi Ranzhi. He learned that it was An Guogong, father and son, and the old lady who asked to see him. Chi Ranzhi went to the front yard. Su Mu didn't want to see people from An Guogong's mansion, so he went for a walk in the back garden .

In the flower hall for guests in the front yard of the Princess Mansion, the four people from An Guogong's Mansion looked at Chi Ranzhi dressed in men's clothes, and were a little dazed.

After some courtesy, I sat down.

The purpose of An Guogong's visit was to ask the truth about Changzi, and he didn't believe the emperor's rhetoric.

Chi Ranzhi repeated what he said to the emperor yesterday in a few words.

After the four members of Duke An's Mansion listened, they were silent for a long time.

The first person to react was the old lady of An Guogong's mansion. She burst into tears and slapped herself four times, sighing: "I almost...killed the child of my savior."

An Guogong's eyes were red.

Back then, when the Qian Dynasty was in chaos, he and his father, Old Anguo Gong, were fighting on the western front. Just when the entire army was about to be annihilated, it was the ancient army who arrived and saved their family's life.

The ancient country had a life-saving grace to the Duke of Anguo, so when the ancient country asked for help, it was the only one who wanted to save the Duke of Anguo.

Later, the old Anguogong and Anguogong wrote letters to connotate the emperor, and the mansion of Anguogong, who had made great military exploits, fell out of favor.

A few years after the ancient country was destroyed, the old An Guogong had a difficult heart, so he just left.

Since then, people in those days never mentioned anything about the ancient country, and it was classified as a secret. The younger generation and even many people did not know about it.

Seeing their expressions, Chi Ranzhi said lightly: "Back then, the reason why Wen Shuqing, the head of the Wen family, married you with a large amount of property when the Chu family was crumbling, raised two young sons for you who were away from the army, and respected your mother. In addition to the son-changing plan, I also deeply feel that the Chu family is upright, loyal, and trustworthy, but I never expected..."

Everyone was silent for a long time, and An Guogong stood up and cupped his hands and said: "He is Shu Qing's child, and he is also my child. On the premise of being loyal to the Qian Dynasty, I, An Guogong's mansion, will do my best to protect him."

On the way from the bedroom to the garden, Nanny Gong and Fu Guang Lve Ying followed Su Mu and talked a lot.

Su Mu's heart, which had been slightly calm just now, became turbulent again.

Although the conversation between Chi Ranzhi and the emperor yesterday was very brief, Su Mu could guess that, as his shield and substitute, Chi Ranzhi's fate arranged by the previous generation, in addition to protecting him, might also submit to him, Assist him to restore the country and ascend the throne.

But obviously, Chi Ranzhi didn't want to obey this arrangement, but led Anbu to develop in the sea in the opposite direction.

The words of Gong Nai and others confirmed this point. Although Anbu was left in the territory of Moburo, which annexed the ancient country, there has been no action.

Until the Huns were defeated and attacked Mobulo, Chi Ranzhi ordered the Anbu people to rebel and stabbed Mobulo in the back, leading to the destruction of Mobulo and avenging the ancient country's destruction.

The reason why Chi Ranzhi was not there last night was because he went to the posthouse to kill the remnants of Mobulo.

Madam Gong: "Although the forces of Anbu have been in Moburo for a long time, His Highness...no, the leader...he seems to have no intention of revenge and restoration of the country. We have been puzzled for a long time by the sudden action. Now, finally understood."

Su Mu looked at Nanny Gong.

Gong Nai sighed: "He is for you."

Su Mu: "..."

Grandma Gong: "Although he has long been planning to take you to the ocean, he is worried that if you find out the truth one day...he doesn't want you to bear the heavy fate of returning to the country, and he doesn't want your hands to be stained with blood, so, in advance Done."

Gong Nao looked at Su Mu with a smile: "You two must be well."

After finishing the words, he walked away with a fleeting look, leaving Su Mu some time to be alone.

Su Mu stood by the lake, staring blankly at the water surface.

He suddenly remembered why Chi Ranzhi was afraid of water.

When he was young, he was pushed into the lake and almost drowned.

The heart is sore and hurts.

I want to be nicer to Chi Ranzhi, and the better I can be.

After an unknown amount of time, a tall and slender figure approached Su Mu, "Mu Mu."

Su Mu turned his head and saw the prince standing beside him.

Su Mu looked at the prince, not knowing what to say.

The prince looked down at Su Mu and said with a smile, "I know, you can't help yourself. So am I."

Su Mu heard the words and looked at the prince carefully.

He didn't expect the prince to say that.

The prince looked at the lake, "There are no fathers and sons, no brothers in the Tian family. That position will make everyone fall into mutual suspicion. You die, I live. Those who stand behind us naturally or for various purposes are the same. The fate of everyone, everyone loses, everyone wins. But..."

The prince looked at Su Mu: "Perhaps, we can be like Xiao Shuo and his brothers. The father and emperor are in their prime, let's compare and see how much they can do for the common people over the years? What do you think?"

Su Mu looked at the prince for a long time, but turned and left without answering.

Prince: "..."

The first time he failed to talk to his younger brother as an older brother, the prince looked at Su Mu's leaving back and then at his own chest.

The heart inside seemed to be broken into eight petals.

He looked across the lake and sighed.

He couldn't help thinking that everyone said that Su Mu liked him at the beginning, but he didn't realize until now that maybe it was a natural attraction between bloodlines.

Su Mu completely fits the image of his younger brother in his childhood dreams, but now this lost younger brother...

Completely ignore him.

The prince looked at the lake for a long time, and went to Chi Ranzhi.

Su Mu returned to the bedroom silently, and stood in front of the window in a daze for a long time.

The last time he was so helpless was...

Su Mu's eyes suddenly lit up.

How did Chi Ranzhi untie him at that time?

"Are you in danger of me?"

Chi Ranzhi said.Then, he took him to see the military factory in Linyuan City.

Su Mu's eyes became brighter and brighter.

Small dangers see big dangers.

Little witch is a big witch.

Got it!

Su Mu ran to the secret room Chi Ranzhi had prepared for him, where all his belongings were placed.Su Mu took an inventory of his family fortune.

Laughed.

If you want to play, play a big one.

Let me protect you this time.
