Chapter 441 Life is in his hands

When the sixth prince was keeping vigil for the emperor, he actually flirted with a maid from the Chengqian Palace behind the mourning hall, and was interrupted by the queen and several ministers. Even with the help of the imperial concubine Ming and the support of his chief minister Murong Chi, he could not get past the wall.

Lost the qualification to compete for the throne.

The King of England was quickly established as the new monarch, and the enthronement ceremony was held first, and then the new emperor presided over the state funeral.

This work lasted for a month, and at this time Beijin had also entered winter. After a while, it snowed, making it difficult to travel due to the snow, and they would have to wait until the next spring before they could go south.

But as time goes by, it is difficult to guarantee that changes will not occur.

Therefore, Liu Yunxiang was very anxious these days, but Leng Yuxie never issued an edict.

The beggar sat at the door, holding his broken bowl and tapping it with his fingers. "There are guards inside and outside the house. Are they really just protecting us?"

Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath. He was able to go out a few days ago, but these days he can no longer go out. It is said to be for protection, but in fact it is more like confining them.

But she still remembered that day when she met Leng Yuxie, he looked at her and said, "I treat you as a friend, sincerely."

"Actually, if I were the monarch of Beijin, especially the new monarch, I probably would not ignore the opposition of all ministers and let go of people who may become enemies of Beijin in the future. Promises are nothing, he has already taken that position.

We have no value to him."

"I'm still willing to believe him."

Liu Yunxiang entered the back room and saw Yan Mu sitting on the Arhat bed. He was getting thinner and thinner, and his face was not good. When the weather got cold, he caught the wind and cold, which always affected him badly. He had been to many doctors, and they all said it was cold.

The body is too weak and needs to be nursed back to health slowly.

The window lattice was opened, and the cold wind blew in. He stared outside blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Liu Yunxiang sat on the Luohan bed, leaned over and closed the window first, then turned to look at Yan Mu, and saw that he had retracted his gaze and looked at her with an expressionless expression on his face for a long time.

"Why, you don't recognize me anymore?" she joked.

It was just a joke, she smiled, and suddenly her heart trembled, "You..."

Yan Mu smiled, "I was just thinking about Yan'er and Xingyi. They must have grown a lot taller, and they probably can't remember me anymore."

Liu Yunxiang breathed a sigh of relief, "They were still young when you left. After another three years, they probably don't recognize you anymore, but that's okay. You are their father, and they are still looking forward to your return home."

Yan Mu sighed, "I miss them."

"We'll be home soon."

"I wonder if I can catch up with the red plum tree in the yard when it's in full bloom."

Liu Yunxiang sat over and leaned into Yan Mu's arms, "I can definitely do it."

After Yan Mu went to bed, Liu Yunxiang came to the door of the mansion. Before he could step out of the threshold, he was stopped by two imperial guards.

"I want to see His Majesty," she said.

One of the guards said: "There is no decree from the Holy Spirit, so you can just stay at home."

"Then the Holy One's will is for you to imprison us or to protect us?"

"Nature is protection."

"Since it's for protection, then I insist on going out. Do you dare to touch me?"

The two guards looked at each other, and one of them said: "You go back first, we will enter the palace to ask for instructions from the Holy One."

Liu Yunxiang shook off his sleeves and said, "I won't embarrass you. I'll just wait here for your news."

With that said, she sat down on the verandah on one side and would not give up until Leng Yuxie replied.

In this way, I waited until it was almost dark before the palace replied.

"Your Majesty is waiting for you at the Prince's Palace."

When Liu Yunxiang went out, two imperial guards followed her all the way to the Prince of England's Mansion. When she came to the backyard, she saw Leng Yuxie sitting on a stone bench in the courtyard, holding a pot of wine in his hand, drinking alone, looking very lonely.

Behind him stood the imperial guards, and beside him were the palace maids and eunuchs. Today, Leng Yuxie was in the ninth position, and was no longer the former His Royal Highness.

Liu Yunxiang stepped forward, hesitated for a moment, and then bowed respectfully, "Your Majesty Jin An."

Leng Yuxie was holding the jug to drink. Hearing this, his hand paused, then he put down the jug and gave a wry smile.

"It turns out that there are so many things I can't help but do when I sit in this position. Many times, I begin to regret that I shouldn't have fought for this position."

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "Not just kings, everyone has times when they can't help themselves."

Leng Yuxie took a sip of wine, swallowed it, was silent for a moment, and then his eyes became sharp: "I don't want to kill people, but to cut the grass, we must get rid of the roots."

Liu Yunxiang felt a chill, "I think that whether you are a king or an ordinary person, the so-called inability to control yourself is just an excuse."

Leng Yuxie raised his head and looked at Liu Yunxiang, his eyes serious: "Are you accusing me?"

Liu Yunxiang pursed his lips, "You said we are still friends, are we still friends now?"

Leng Yuxie was startled for a moment, turned away and said, "Of course."

"Leng Yuxie, I'm not blaming you. I know it's difficult for you, so I'm a little worried about you."

"No one dares to call me by my first name."

"Can I be an exception?"

Leng Yuxie smiled, "Of course."

Liu Yunxiang walked over, sat down opposite Leng Yuxie, grabbed the wine bottle from his hand, poured himself a glass, touched it with him, and drank it.

"Wine in the palace?"

"Um."

“It tastes good.”

"My father's treasure has been hidden for more than 20 years according to the eunuch beside him, and he has been reluctant to drink it."

"It's easier for you."

Leng Yuxia burst into laughter, this time his smile was bright and clear.

"Let me tell you something funny. After the morning court today, the Minister of Rites came to see me. He was hesitant and it took him a long time to explain. You can't even guess that he suggested that I choose ten concubines at once.

Eight, and then...haha!"

Having said this, Leng Yuxie burst out laughing, laughing so much that he lay on the table and couldn't get up.

Liu Yunxiang raised his eyebrows, "Then what?"

Leng Yuxie laughed for a while before continuing: "He proposed to let Lao Jiu sow seeds for my concubines."

"ah?"

"I even said it in a high-sounding way, for the sake of my country's stability."

The corner of Liu Yunxiang's mouth twitched, "You didn't tell him that you could have children?"

"Am I crazy enough to explain this to everyone?"

Liu Yunxiang couldn't help but laugh, "Don't blame me. It was you who hid your thoughts and didn't tell me clearly."

"I will blame you and restore my innocence!"

Liu Yunxiang covered his mouth, "You won't still..."

Leng Yuxie blushed, "Shut up!"

Liu Yunxiang's eyes widened, "It's true!"

Leng Yuxie narrowed his eyes, "You know too much!"

Liu Yunxiang laughed and said, "Actually, this is a simple matter. Hurry up and get a few more concubines and work harder to get them all pregnant. Then the rumors will be broken."

"Hmph, I don't want so many women. They're annoying me to death. I only want one. The fate hasn't come yet, so I'll just wait."

"I support the emperor!"

"Tch, do I need your support?"

Liu Yunxiang pouted, "By the way, how is Zhixi doing?"

Leng Yuxie's expression changed, "She ran away with the adulterer."

"Oh, it's a pity that I didn't say goodbye to her."

Leng Yuxie took another sip of wine and said, "See me, are you okay?"

Liu Yunxiang paused and said, "I would like to ask the emperor to issue an order to let us return to Dayong."

Leng Yuxie clicked his tongue, "I'm afraid that what I let go is an enemy who will be our enemy in Beijin in the future, an enemy that is so powerful that we are helpless, and now his life is in my hands."
