Liu Wuyan's life was safe, but he was tied up for several hours for no reason, and missed the opportunity to participate in the peace negotiation.

He knew in his heart that he had fallen into the trap of the second prince, but his words were groundless and there was no key evidence, so this matter could only be ignored on the bright side.

All the dust has been settled, and the ceding of Rongzhou City is a foregone conclusion.The second prince was in a hurry to return to Beijing to report on his duties. He probably wanted to use his achievements this time in exchange for more support, so that his position as the crown prince would be more secure.

"Master Liu is fine, it's just a little flesh injury, just apply some medicine and it will be fine." Wu Xue said after checking. "It's normal if you still feel a little dizzy now. This kind of drug has a strong stamina, so you need to rest more."

The person who knocked Liu Wuyan out was afraid that he would wake up halfway, so he deliberately fed him the drug.Mu Yuanshu was still not at ease, so he asked Wu Xue to take a closer look.

"Don't leave any sequelae." Mu Yuanshu said.

But Wu Xue felt that there was probably something wrong with these people——Ye Guyun and Mu Yuanshu were the same, if they didn't believe him, why bother to see him?

But now he is facing His Royal Highness, the eldest son, and not Ye Guyun, who is sloppy and shameless. Naturally, there are some things that cannot be said.

Wu Xue could only say: "Then I'll prescribe another calming medicine."

After finishing speaking, he went out to find Sanqi decoction.

Only Mu Yuanshu and Liu Wuyan were left in the camp, and Liu Wuyan who was leaning on the head of the bed was a little tired. He looked at Mu Yuanshu and shook his head: "Your Highness shouldn't be like this, Doctor Wu is very skilled in medicine. . . . he will be in trouble."

Mu Yuanshu's gaze sank, and he held Liu Wuyan's hand while sitting by the bed.

"I don't want anything to happen to you." It was rare for him to show such a serious expression, and there was a hint of fierceness in his eyes. "I didn't want to argue with him, but he dared to threaten me with you..."

The glory of the ancestors, the safety of Liu Wuyan, the new and old hatred, are mixed together, making it difficult for Mu Yuanshu to stand idly by.

"Your Highness..." Liu Wuyan stared at him blankly, "Did you... change your mind?"

Before, Liu Wuyan had secretly asked Mu Yuanshu about the fight for the reserve, but Mu Yuanshu didn't give a clear answer at that time.Liu Wuyan thought that he had no intention of doing this, but now it seems that His Royal Highness Shizi has decided to face the difficulties?

"Fate is hard to break, and you can't avoid it." Mu Yuanshu smiled and blinked at him. "Didn't you teach me this?"

This is indeed what Liu Wuyan said when he was young. Liu Wuyan couldn't help but feel a little guilty when he thought of his original purpose of saying this.

"The right to choose...is still in His Highness's hands." Liu Wuyan hesitated for a moment, but chose to ask again: "Your Highness...have you really decided?"

Liu Wuyan wasn't sure whether Mu Yuanshu's decision was just a momentary dispute, or after careful consideration.He felt uneasy - after all, instilling these concepts into the ignorant Mu Yuanshu was all for the future survival.

He didn't want to relive the feeling of thousands of arrows piercing his heart, and he didn't want to see His Royal Highness, who was on the tip of his heart, being tortured to death by the second prince who became the new emperor after hovering over the capital for a long time.

"If there is an afterlife, you must firmly hold the right to choose in your own hands."

This is what he said to Mu Yuanshu in his previous life, and it is also a kind of vigilance to himself.

Back in a trance when I was a teenager, when everything could be restarted, counting step by step, step by step, everything has a goal, and it is all for the achievement of Mu Yuanshu's today.

The room was quiet and silent, Liu Wuyan's question lay between the two of them, Mu Yuanshu didn't answer immediately, Liu Wuyan thought he was still hesitating.

"Your Highness." Liu Wuyan who had been silent for a long time finally smiled and shook his head. "Actually...you don't have to force it."

He watched Mu Yuanshu grow up, how could Liu Wuyan not know what kind of temperament he is?The position everyone is chasing after is not his pursuit.

Having known each other for many years, Mu Yuanshu has never revealed his desire for power.He would raise doubts when he confronted Su Xiang, and he would complain for himself when he was forced to delegate power.

Everything seems to be developing in the direction of his own design... But Liu Wuyan suddenly realized at this moment, what Mu Yuanshu did, could it be that he did it deliberately after being aware of his thoughts?

Liu Wuyan raised his head suddenly, his eyes filled with shock.

Mu Yuanshu took the lead and said, "I won't force it."

"I don't regret it either." He clenched Liu Wuyan's hand, his eyes were hot and shining. "I know you are wishing for me and the world.The second prince is aggressive and pressing everywhere, which has made me very unhappy... Since the emperor also thinks so, why don't I take up this responsibility and be the master of the world? "

If others listen to these words, Mu Yuanshu will be charged with disrespect.

"Wu Yan, you have to help me." Mu Yuanshu looked at him with burning eyes, feeling quite aggrieved. "This burden is too heavy for me to carry alone."

There is a sentence that he wants to say, but dare not say.

For you, no matter how heavy the burden is, I will be happy.

Liu Wuyan's heart moved, and an inexplicable emotion raised his head in secret.He stabilized his mind and said with a leisurely smile: "I can't ask for it."

The two looked at each other and smiled, fingers crossed.

Liu Wuyan also had a sentence that he couldn't say——

If I can protect you from worry in this life, no matter how big the sacrifice is, I will be worth it.



The class teacher returned to the court, and the second prince received a lot of praise, and he was in the limelight for a while.

But those who know the inside story can't be happy——

Rongzhou is a frontier fortress, how can you just give it if you ask!

The emperor was already ill, but under the double stimulus of surprise and anger, he became even more ill.

"Get out! Get out!" In the imperial study, the emperor repelled the second prince who came to pay his respects, with a look of rage. "I don't have an unworthy son like you!"

Even if the emperor is obsessed with calligraphy and painting and ignores government affairs, he still knows that the foundation left by his ancestors cannot be moved.Besides, Da Qi was the victor in the first place, how could he be at a disadvantage when signing the covenant!

"Your Majesty calmed down and took a step back. Although the decision made by His Highness Second Highness, although on the surface, Daqi lost a city, it can be exchanged for several years of peace. Today's debt will definitely be recovered in the future. Don't worry, Your Majesty, lest you hurt the dragon's body."

Su Xiang's words are true, so it can be seen that the emperor has become a villain who doesn't know right from wrong.

The second prince knelt on the ground, pretending to be a filial son and grandson.

"Everything I do is for the people of Daqi, for the Mu family. I have a clear conscience, please learn from my father!"

Looking at the kneeling second prince and Su Xiang who was standing calmly, the sickly emperor felt sad, and spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Prince doctor! Tell the doctor!" The sharp voice of the old eunuch hurriedly sounded.

For a moment, there was chaos in the imperial study room, but the second prince still refused to get up, and kept saying: "Please enlighten my father!"

"You...you..." The emperor, supported by the old eunuch, tremblingly raised his finger and pointed at the second prince, but couldn't say a whole sentence for a long time.

"Father, please enlighten me!"

……

It has to be said that the second prince definitely has the talent to learn without a teacher when it comes to angering me to death.



Prince Qing's Mansion.

When Mu Yuanshu heard the news from the palace, he was shocked but also felt that it was expected.

"He can't wait." Liu Wuyan stood with his hands behind his back and smiled slightly. "There is news from the Imperial Hospital that the emperor is unconscious, and may not last for a few days."

The emperor in the previous life also died of illness.However, this illness in this life seems to have come on a bit quickly, maybe it has something to do with the sudden turn of the war.

After all, Rongzhou City was not ceded in the previous life, and they didn't know that the foundation of the ancestors was so important to the emperor of calligraphy and painting.

"Looking at it this way, the emperor has a bit of character." Mu Yuanshu said with emotion. "At first, I thought that the emperor's eyes were only those poetic and picturesque, but looking at it now, I am actually narrow-minded."

Before the war broke out, the emperor often summoned Mu Yuanshu into the palace to chat about the family affairs.

These things happened in the previous life, so Mu Yuanshu didn't take it to heart at first.However, all kinds of coincidences later made him feel that the emperor was probably the one who saw the most clearly. He had a premonition early on that there would be today's situation, so he summoned him in advance to pave the way for him.

"Yuan Shu, I know that my throne should belong to my brother."

The emperor's brother that the emperor spoke of was naturally Mu Yuanshu's father, King Qing.When King Qing was fighting abroad, the late emperor died of a sudden illness before he could establish a crown prince. The emperor, who wanted to be an idle prince, was helped by Su Xiang to the throne. When King Qing came back for the funeral, the late emperor had been buried for a long time.

At that time, there were rumors that the emperor's favorite candidate for the heir apparent was King Qing, but the emperor married a good wife, and Concubine Su Gui was Su Xiang's biological sister, so there was no reason for Su Xiang not to help his family.

"I also know that Brother Huang had the world in mind at the time, and he didn't want the people to suffer because of the struggle for imperial power, so he voluntarily handed over his military power and returned to the fiefdom."

The emperor counted the past of his youth in detail, and sighed lightly.

"But how can I be an emperor? Su Xiangquan has been in power for so many years, and I also have many responsibilities."

I feel so deeply that I even forgot to call myself.The emperor looked at Mu Yuanshu who was carved out of the same mold as King Qing, and said seriously and sincerely: "Yuanshu, you are a good boy."

The eldest son is a sick child with weak ears, the second son seeks skin from a tiger and is headstrong, and the third son is still young and can't see anything...

Turning around, only the only son of the emperor's brother is worthy of the big job.

"The foundation of the ancestors cannot be destroyed in my hands..." The emperor smiled lightly, and looked at Mu Yuanshu very seriously. "Yuan Shu, Mu's country, it all depends on you..."

At that time, Mu Yuanshu thought it was the emperor's temptation to him, so he hurriedly expressed his loyalty: "Your Majesty, please rest assured! Yuanshu will do his best to assist His Majesty and protect the ancestor's foundation together!"

At that time, after hearing this, the emperor just glanced at him lightly and showed a meaningful smile.

Now that I think about it, I'm afraid I'm lamenting his simplicity.

……

"The crown prince has not yet been decided, the emperor is critically ill, and the second prince is afraid that... he will make another ruthless move."

Liu Wuyan's worry was unreasonable, he gave Mu Yuanshu a meaningful look: "Your Highness, are you going to..."
