Before Mo Xiaochuan went to Chu State, he went back to Beijing. The emperor disappeared for more than ten days and suddenly returned to the capital, shocking many people. Especially Gu Lianqing, who ran to the palace in a hurry.
Mo Xiaochuan was vomiting and his wife's suffering. When he heard Gu Lianqing's arrival, he couldn't help but feel that the old man was a little bit puzzled. However, Gu Lianqing was a loyal minister no matter what, and he did his best whether it was for Mo Xiaochuan or Xi Liang. He couldn't help Gu Lianqing's old heart, so he had to meet him in the study.
Seeing Mo Xiaochuan, Gu Lianqing knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, if you don't come out, I will die of panic."
"Isn't he coming back?" Mo Xiaochuan looked at Gu Lianqing helplessly and said, "Get up and talk."
Gu Lianqing stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the war in the Southern Tang Dynasty is very tense now, and you are not in charge of the overall situation in the court. All the ministers in the court are somewhat at a loss"
"Have I not come back yet? Kou Yilang and the others are here in the Southern Tang Dynasty. As long as there is no problem with Mu Guang's cooperation, there will definitely be no trouble. You are looking for me today just to accuse me of not returning to the capital. Bar?"
"I don't dare!" Gu Lianqing said hurriedly: "It's just that some people have mentioned the Supreme Emperor recently"
Mo Xiaochuan frowned and said, "Who mentioned it?"
"It's hard for me to say this. They are all rumors in the market and have been suppressed. However, there is no guarantee that some people in the court will not do anything secretly." Gu Lianqing said with hesitation. In fact, he had some idea as to who the news came from. However, the matter was very involved. If he told it, even Mo Xiaochuan would find it difficult, so he had to stall it. In fact, in his heart, he was afraid that Mo Xiaochuan would insist on asking.
Fortunately, Mo Xiaochuan also understood this and did not ask him any more at the moment. He just nodded slightly and said: "I understand this matter. I will handle it after a while. If there is nothing else, you can go down Bar."
"Yes!" Gu Lianqing retreated.
After Gu Lianqing left, Mo Xiaochuan frowned. In fact, the news of Mo Zhiyuan's death was not announced. Mo Xiaochuan was mainly concerned about the reputation of regicide and the feelings of the old queen. However, this matter now seems to be beneficial. Of course, Mo Xiaochuan's reputation has not been damaged too much, and the old queen mother also has a glimmer of hope in her heart, but it has also given many people with evil intentions a lot of ideas.
Mo Xiaochuan also has a headache. Now, the war in Southern Tang Dynasty is stable. In half a year at most, the Southern Tang Dynasty should be destroyed. Mo Xiaochuan is already in great power, the imperial power is stable, and he is no longer afraid of others making trouble. It is also a suitable time to announce the news of Mo Zhiyuan's death at this time. But, what should the old queen do?
For this grandma who loved him so much, Mo Xiaochuan really couldn't bear to make her sad.
¡°Bang bang bang¡¡±
There was a knock on the study door.
Mo Xiaochuan raised his head, recovered his thoughts, and said softly: "It's Hui'er, come in."
"Yes, I obey!" Then Liu Huier laughed and pushed the door open and walked in: "Husband? I heard from my sister-in-law that you are back. When I went to find you, I heard that the old man had called you away. No. Excuse me?"
Mo Xiaochuan shook his head and looked at Liu Huier's naughty smile. He also smiled and waved to Liu Huier.
Liu Huier came to him obediently and sat on his lap.
Holding Liu Huier's soft body and smelling her body fragrance, Mo Xiaochuan couldn't help but enjoy it. He was very lucky for Liu Huier's innocent character. Back then, Liu Huier witnessed the tragic death of Liu Suizhu. Mo Xiaochuan once thought that she would change. Although he had been trying his best to protect her, he still felt unsure. Now Liu Huier's behavior made Mo Xiaochuan feel sad in his heart. There was a feeling of warmth.
"Husband, my mother mentioned you a few days ago and said that the husband I chose was right. She has never seen an emperor who values ????such affection. She said that you are different. Even if you are not a good emperor, you must be a good one. Husband" Liu Huier said with a smile.
Mo Xiaochuan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. It is estimated that Liu Huier's mother would want to tear her mouth off if she heard these words. However, there were no outsiders here, and Liu Huier could talk to him without any grudges, which made him feel relaxed.
Since becoming the emperor, he has not enjoyed this kind of relaxation for a long time. He has always been afraid that as his identity changes, his home will no longer be as warm as before. Although many people in this era regard women as playthings, Mo Xiaochuan cannot do this. What's the point of asking your woman to obey your orders completely, like a subordinate???
"What else did your mother-in-law say?" Mo Xiaochuan asked softly.
"Mom has said a lot, but most of them are to praise you. I'm a little jealous. If I didn't know my mother well, I would have thought that she also likes you Hehe"
"Don't talk nonsense." Mo Xiaochuan slapped her on the butt. This girl was too open-minded.
"I'm kidding, I'm not afraid of making you bored." Liu Huier said, standing up: "By the way, my sister-in-law asked me to come over and call you to eat. They are already waiting. Don't keep them waiting. We will soon Let's go." Taking Mo Xiaochuan's hand, Liu Huier walked outside.
Mo Xiaochuan had no choice but to follow her out.
The two of them came outside. It was already very late. Ever since Mo Xiaochuan had a bonfire dinner, they seemed to be obsessed with it. This time, the dinner was in the garden again.
When Mo Xiaochuan and Liu Huier came over, they were already seated.
Little Mo Zheng now has the air of a prince. Although Mo Xiaochuan has not yet been appointed as a prince, several tutors have taught him according to the standards of a prince. Sitting there, his waist is actually straight. Even when his two younger sisters were playing around, he didn't participate. He just watched with a smile. People who didn't know better thought he was some kind of elder.
Looking at his appearance, Mo Xiaochuan felt relieved in his heart. However, at the same time, he also felt that little Mo Zheng's changes were a little too fast and seemed a little too premature. At his age, he should grow up carefree. right.
However, he did not correct these. Living in this era and shouldering the future of this country, perhaps this is also the price of power that comes with his birth.
"I brought my husband here, sister-in-law, you said you would reward me." Liu Huier ran over and acted coquettishly towards Liu Qingrou, holding her neck with both hands and shaking her.
Liu Qingrou was a little dizzy. She patted her hand and said, "Okay, I can't even breathe."
Mo Xiaochuan watched them quarreling and came to the oven and said, "You foodies, must you be greedy again" After that, he cooked and grilled meat for them. That night, Mo Xiaochuan had a very happy time and did not tell her about his plan to go to Chu State to find Xiaoyao. Moreover, even if he wanted to go, he would not be able to leave at once. Mo Xiaochuan always felt that something might happen if he left this time. Therefore, he had to stabilize the entire Xiliang. After the war in the Southern Tang Dynasty was resolved, he could Really put your mind down and do this.
That night, Lu Qi moved into the small building prepared for her by Mo Xiaochuan. Seeing this change, Xia Chuyue's eyes lit up. She watched everyone else go back to their rooms, but Mo Xiaochuan left because of something. Then he quietly came to Lu Qi's residence.
When Lu Qi heard her tiptoeing, he knew who it was and ignored her. He simply locked the door and bolted it. When Xia Chuyue heard Lu Qi's movements inside, she couldn't help but patted the door and said, "Sister, given our friendship as sisters, do you treat your sister like this?"
"Don't worry, I know what you want to say. I'm not free tonight, let's try another day." Lu Qi said, without any intention of opening the door.
Xia Chuyue paused for a while and said: "If you really don't open the door, then we can talk to Hui'er. I believe she will be very interested." .
When Lu Qi heard Xia Chuyue's words in the room, he frowned. While hesitating, he already felt Xia Chuyue's footsteps moving downstairs, so he hurriedly walked over and opened the door. If Xia Chuyue was really allowed to tell Liu Hui'er , then everyone should know about it. By then, we still don¡¯t know how it will be spread.
Xia Chuyue knew Lu Qi well and had no intention of really leaving. When she saw her opening the door, she walked in with a smile: "It's the right thing to do. Sister, I won't eat you. What are you afraid of? I'm afraid I will really eat you." Your people are here, but you are happy"
"What's the meaning?"
"Are you pretending to be stupid? Haven't you been eaten by the emperor?" Xia Chuyue's smile was very ambiguous.
"Is your butt itchy again?" Lu Qi said, then went directly to the bed, lay down on it, and simply ignored Xia Chuyue.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk" Xia Chuyue looked at Lu Qi, shook her head gently, and suddenly asked, "How do you feel?"
"How do you feel?" Lu Qi wondered.
"You're still pretending to be stupid. Of course it was when the emperor went in. In fact, let me tell you, I was deceived by that girl Yu'er. It hurt a lot. She actually said it didn't hurt at all and was very comfortable. You said"
Xia Chuyue said and stopped speaking, because she had already seen Lu Qi clenching his fists.By this time, if she still doesn't restrain herself, Lu Qi should kick her out.
"Ahem" Xia Chuyue coughed a few times and said, "What are you doing? What are you so shy about? Don't get excited, just keep talking"
"You think I'm like you? So thick-skinned?" Lu Qi sat down.
"Well, how should I put it? You can't say that you are thick-skinned. My husband is nothing to be afraid of. You see, those little girls don't shy away from this anymore. What are you afraid of? Could it be that you haven't?" Xia Chuyue asked tentatively. road.
"Shut up, you can go back, I want to sleep." Lu Qi lay down, covered his head with the quilt, and stopped looking at Xia Chuyue.
There was some confusion on Xia Chuyue's face, and then she sighed softly, shook her head, and said: "Let me tell you, why are you doing this? Women have to do this once. You haven't tasted this kind of thing. , if you knew it, you would definitely not be so fickle, it feels so good, you don¡¯t know, when the emperor¡¯s hand touches this place, your heart almost bursts out" Xia Chuyue said, He put his hand on his chest, kneaded it twice, and then said with a smile: "You don't know, at that time, you felt that there was a fire and a pool of water below I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s hot or humid. I really can¡¯t describe that feeling, especially when the emperor strips you naked and your skin is close to each other. That feeling isah"
With a scream, Xia Chuyue was kicked out and fell heavily on the stairs outside. She stood up angrily and shouted: "Lu Qi, you heartless girl" As Lu Qi Qi closed the door tightly, and Xia Chuyue's curses came.
After cursing a few words, she stood up, patted her dress gently, and a sly smile appeared on her face, and she whispered: "It depends on how long you can endure it, I'm afraid it's starting to get hot now." Come on." Xia Chuyue smiled and left Lu Qi's small building.
As Xia Chuyue said, Lu Qi did feel something strange in her body at this time. In fact, as Xia Chuyue described it, she remembered that day when Mo Xiaochuan hugged her tightly and kissed her, and when Mo Xiaochuan's hand touched her chest At that moment, it was exactly what Xia Chuyue said, and her heart almost jumped out of her mouth. She couldn't help but wonder, is it really as Xia Chuyue said? Will it feel so wonderful?
Thinking like this, she couldn't help but look forward to it, but then her face turned red and she hurriedly buried herself in the quilt, not daring to think about it anymore.
Mo Xiaochuan had already left the palace at this time, and took Jianjiu and others directly to the prison.
He has not been to this place for a long time. Even when he learned that the Heavenly Prison was where the Divine Guards were, he never came to check it again and left all matters to the old man Qishan.
For this aspect, Qi Shanzhong is obviously more suitable than Mo Xiaochuan to handle it. All the members of the Divine Guard who could be incorporated into Qishan have been incorporated. Those who cannot be incorporated have had their martial arts skills revoked, and a special place has been placed for them to live, and they have been completely placed under house arrest.
After all, they know too many secrets, especially people above the Earth Guard level. If they are allowed to get out, it will definitely be a huge hidden danger.
This time, Mo Xiaochuan came to Tianlao not to see them. The main reason why he came here was to see a person. The person who frightened him before, then made him feel mysterious, but later found out that he didn't He was controlled by Mo Zhiyuan silently.
This person is Butler Wang, Wang Xiaoyan, and Wang Xin. He has too many identities, but in the end, he could not escape Mo Zhiyuan's methods. Maybe he made a mistake for a moment, or maybe Mo Zhiyuan caught him He just relied on luck.
However, no matter what, he is indeed defeated now.
When Mo Xiaochuan came to the depths of Tianlao and looked at the old man with a pale face sitting where Bai Changqing was once locked up, he couldn't help but be a little surprised. Today's Butler Wang is no longer as energetic as before, and he no longer seems to be able to figure things out at any time.
At this moment, he looked more like an ordinary old man, with all white hair and no beard. He looked a little weak, just like a powerless old eunuch.
Seeing Mo Xiaochuan, Butler Wang showed a sad smile. He walked slowly closer.
Mo Xiaochuan said softly: "I didn't expect that once we met, we would meet in such a place or under such circumstances."
Butler Wang smiled again and said nothing.
Before Mo Xiaochuan came, he had already learned about Butler Wang's situation. His tongue had been cut out by Mo Zhiyuan. Judging from his current appearance, it seems that his anger had also been cut off by Mo Zhiyuan.That¡¯s it. Mo Xiaochuan waved his hand gently, and Jian Jiu handed the paper and pen that had been prepared to Butler Wang, and also ordered people to prepare tables and chairs.
After seeing them finish all this, Mo Xiaochuan waved his hand gently, and Jian Jiu and others left.
In the huge prison, only Mo Xiaochuan and Butler Wang were left.
Mo Xiaochuan sat down on the side and said softly: "I'll talk, you write, let's have a chat."
Butler Wang laughed again, then dipped his pen and ink and wrote a few words on the paper: "What's there to talk about? You are the emperor now, and I am just a prisoner. I am afraid that my life will not last long. , what else is there to say?¡±
"It seems that they have said a lot to you." Mo Xiaochuan said.
"Don't you want me to know this? If you don't let them say it, how can he say it? The reason why you let them tell me this is probably to save some effort during the conversation. So, what's the matter? Just say it straight, no need to waste time." Butler Wang wrote again.
Mo Xiaochuan nodded slightly: "Okay, actually, I have always had a question. You and Mei Shichang both said that me and Mei Shaochuan look exactly the same. Do you really think there is no difference? You are actually made to admit your mistake. Although, it was revealed in the end But it seems that you didn't feel it from the appearance. Moreover, looking at the reactions of Han Cheng and the people in Luocheng later, it seems that there is indeed no difference in appearance. Is it possible that in the world, two people can look so good in front of each other? So similar?"
Hearing Mo Xiaochuan say these words, Butler Wang had a complicated expression on his face, and suddenly he opened his mouth to laugh, revealing his hollow mouth, teeth, but no tongue. After laughing for a while, he lowered his head and started writing again: "Don't say you are surprised about this, I am also very puzzled. How can there be such similar people in the world, even with an inconspicuous stone on their necks?" The little moles are all exactly the same. If Mei Shaochuan's body had not been found, Mei Shichang and I would not have dared to conclude that you were not him. Perhaps, we would have thought that your body or Mei Shaochuan was just a different soul. Bar."
"So, are they really exactly the same?" Mo Xiaochuan sighed.
"Of course. Now that things have happened, I have no need to lie to you. In fact, I have always wanted to ask you this question, where are you from? I checked your origins, but there is nothing to find out at all. It seems that you appeared in the river out of thin air that day. At that time, the river was covered with ice. I checked it for several miles up and down, and no one appeared there at all. Judging from your situation at that time, you I have no ability to pass through elsewhere, nor can I hide under the water in advance, because I have already asked that before Mei Shaochuan fell, the surface of the river was covered with disease. Could it be that you are some kind of mountain spirit monster?" Wang After the housekeeper finished writing, he looked at Mo Xiaochuan with curiosity.
"I didn't expect that you would have so many questions in your mind. You are so tolerant that you haven't asked me about them for so many years."
"I wonder if you can tell?" Steward Wang smiled bitterly and continued to write: "Besides, it doesn't make much difference to me whether I asked before or not. Mei Shaochuan is an important chess piece, but he is not very good. Use, that¡¯s why I never used him. Then you appeared and you are much easier to use than him. I didn¡¯t want to alert the enemy and disturb your chess piece.¡±
Mo Xiaochuan smiled and said: "A chess piece? Maybe. I was indeed the first time I came here. I was completely unfamiliar with this place. I was even a little panicked and scared. I didn't know what would happen. In this way, it is a blessing for me to be alive today. You?"
"Not only are you alive today, but also the reason why Mo Zhiyuan began to value you is also because of my relationship." Butler Wang finished writing and smiled again.
Mo Xiaochuan shook his head gently: "Do you want me to thank you?"
"No, I'm just using you. You should be grateful that you are valuable, otherwise, you would have become a corpse long ago. I would not be so boring as to take advantage of a worthless person. I know , you came to see me today, it should be my death day, before I die, can you tell me how you appeared and what your identity is?"
"It seems that you have a deep hatred for the Mo family. You even suspected that I was a monster and wanted to use me at the same time."
Butler Wang didn't write anything more, just stared at Mo Xiaochuan and waited.
Mo Xiaochuan thought for a while, nodded slightly, and said: "Well, since you want to know, then it doesn't matter if I tell you. In fact, I am not a monster. Maybe, I am not what you think at all. I I'm just an ordinary person. When I came here, I didn't know why this happened. If I told you that before coming here, I lived in a world more than a thousand years later, would you believe it? "
Butler Wang opened his eyes suddenlyHe opened his eyes and stared closely at Mo Xiaochuan's face, with a look of surprise on his face.
Looking at him like this, Mo Xiaochuan knew that Butler Wang believed it. Perhaps, this is more difficult to believe than that he is some kind of mountain spirit, but Butler Wang is a smart man, and he should understand that there is no need to deceive him now.
Butler Wang was in a daze for a while, then a wry smile appeared on his face, and he lowered his head to write: "It's really hard to believe. No wonder, I feel that sometimes, you are like a simple child who doesn't know anything." I understand. Sometimes, I feel that your knowledge is extraordinary and what you say is unbelievable. It turns out, it turns outit turns outI understandthis is really God's will. It seems that everything is possible. Destiny, I didn¡¯t believe this before, but now I finally understand it. You are the destiny, or in other words, you are a variable"
Mo Xiaochuan waved his hand gently and said: "No fixed numbers or variables are important anymore. What is important is that I don't understand how all this happened and why I appeared here. Until now, I even I was a little confused, was the writing about life in the past a dream? Or was it real?"
¡°Only you know this clearly,¡± Butler Wang wrote.
Mo Xiaochuan chuckled and shook his head, took a long breath, and said: "I have never said these words to anyone. I didn't expect that the first person to listen to these words would be you. Maybe, it's just like what you said. Yan, all this is an arrangement from somewhere, otherwise, why would I appear at the place where Mei Shaochuan was before he died, look exactly like him, and get involved in your revenge plan."
"Hahaha" Butler Wang suddenly laughed loudly again.
"What are you laughing at?" Mo Xiaochuan asked.
"I'm laughing. In fact, we are all fools. Whether it's me, Mo Zhiyuan, or Liu Chengqi, we are all too naive. I thought I could get revenge through you, even if you become the emperor of Xiliang , Mo¡¯s bloodline is gone.¡±
