When Murong Xian caught the emperor's gaze, he immediately stepped forward, saluted and listened to the instructions.
The emperor looked at Murong Xian and said: "Second brother, you stayed out of everything that happened in Hongye Mountain today. Why is it such a coincidence?"
Murong Xian frowned and did not answer immediately.
Murong Xiu, who was next to him, said: "Second brother, when we went down the mountain together earlier, you said you had never seen Miss Luo. You were worried about Miss Luo, so you returned to Shuanghan Xiaozhu to look for Miss Luo. But when we went up the mountain to look for you,
I haven’t seen you and Miss Luo, your... mysteriousness will inevitably make people think too much. "
Murong Xiu didn't know how Jiang You and Murong Xian separated everything.
He had clearly arranged for people to wait at the foot of Hongye Mountain tomorrow morning, it was clear that Murong Xian had entered the mountain, and it was clear that neither of them showed up. How could he avoid all the plots?
He personally negotiated with Jiang You and confirmed that Jiang You was at the top of the mountain. Later, he saw Murong Xian going up the mountain with his own eyes. He was sure that these two people must have been to the weapon pool, but who knew that in the end it had nothing to do with them. Murong Xiuzhen
It's incomprehensible.
He thought he had mastered the heaven-defying script and manipulated everyone at his fingertips. This was what he was extremely good at. How could he lose control again and again when he got to Jiang You?
Murong Xian listened to Murong Xiu's words and was puzzled: "Third brother, what do you mean by this? Why is it that Miss Luo and I are mysterious and make people think too much?"
"What's going on?" The emperor frowned.
Murong Xian turned to the emperor and saluted: "Father, I did go back to look for Miss Luo, but before arriving at Shuanghan Xiaozhu, I met Miss Luo and her maid, and they went down the mountain together. After going down the mountain, I met Miss Luo.
Young Master Mu, who picked up Miss Luo, went to visit Young Master Mu's restaurant together. As for what the third brother said about being mysterious, it was really outrageous. The interactions between Er Chen and Miss Luo were open and honest, so why?
Is it called a mystery?"
Murong Xiu: "..."
He should know that if he talks about Murong Xian and Jiang You at this time, he is just looking for trouble.
Fortunately, someone came over to protect Murong Xiu from harm. The fifth prince immediately spoke arrogantly: "Second brother, it's wrong for you to be so aggressive. We were worried about you, so we went back to Hongye Mountain to find you. You guys are better.
Don't say anything even when no one is there! Why is Miss Luo so courageous and has such a bad temper? It's not impossible for her to escape into the weapons pool. We almost mistook Fourth Brother and Miss Qi San for you! This
If it's really you two, Su Yan will be taken advantage of..."
Murong Xian's face darkened and he glanced at the fifth prince.
Jiang You chuckled: "Your Highness, if you don't know how to speak, don't speak, so as not to make others hate you."
The fifth prince looked at Jiang You and raised his head arrogantly. When he saw Jiang You, he felt a little pain in his forehead. He was so annoyed!
Thinking of the tea cup that Jiang You had smashed before, he felt quite unhappy: "What's wrong? Why don't people talk anymore? I've told you, my father is here, how dare you throw it away again?"
Are you going to hit me with a teacup? Humph!"
Jiangyou: "..."
How dare she!
She simply turned to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, His Highness the Fifth Prince thinks that he has learned martial arts since he was a child and is very capable. He also wants to ask the Emperor for instructions to go to the border in person to help Prince Su! I really admire the courage of His Highness the Fifth Prince.
, I believe that the emperor will not disappoint His Highness the Fifth Prince."
The emperor was quite surprised: "Lao Wu, are you serious?"
"Father, son and minister..."
When the fifth prince was about to speak, Murong Xian continued: "Seriously. Father, when the fifth brother said this, we all heard it, brother prince, right?"
The prince nodded bravely and said: "Father, fifth brother did say such a thing, but... isn't this a joke?"
Jiang You said in disbelief: "A joke? Your Majesty, the war is so tense, how can the fifth prince joke about this matter? When the fifth prince talked about this matter, he swore so firmly, how can it be regarded as a joke? Your Majesty, you can't
We have betrayed His Highness the Fifth Prince’s devotion to serve the country.”
The fifth prince stared at Jiang You, his eyes almost popping out of his head.
He never expected that Jiang You would say these words directly at this time.
When the fifth prince was about to open his mouth to explain, Luo Jibei also spoke: "Your Majesty, this is a good thing! You were worried before that no one of the princes dared to resist the heavenly decree. This is very good, and it can be given to you.
It’s an opportunity for the Fifth Prince to practice. The Fifth Prince proposed it on his own initiative, so that’s really the best thing.”
Fifth Prince: "..."
He wanted to explain and refuse, but he swallowed it hard.
This is what it feels like to be unable to argue at all!
The emperor looked at the fifth prince, nodded and said: "Lao Wu, I am very happy that you have such a heart. I ask you, do you really want to sharpen your skills?"
"...Yes." The fifth prince agreed with difficulty.
The emperor was very satisfied and said: "In that case, I will give you this opportunity. Three days later, I will ask the Ministry of War to order 30,000 troops and horses for you. You can take them to the northwest to meet Su Yan and cooperate with Su Yan to defend against the enemy. You must
We must drive the Heavenly Mandate out of our realm of heaven."
"My son... take your orders." The fifth prince saluted, his whole body trembling.
He was almost mad to death, but seeing the emperor in such high spirits, he couldn't refuse, and his whole body was about to collapse!
The emperor was extremely pleased and said: "Okay, please step back first. I will make arrangements later. Have a good rest. I hope you can achieve military success, and you will not disappoint my expectations."
"Yes, Father, I will definitely live up to Father...your expectations." The fifth prince felt a little dizzy.
What a crime. Why did he take the blame?
The fifth prince retreated. When he went out, he staggered and almost fell.
The emperor was startled, and Luo Jibei said in time: "Your Highness, the Fifth Prince, is so happy."
The emperor nodded and said: "Yes, I am so happy and a little carried away, hahaha..."
The prince paused and asked: "Father, are you really sending your fifth brother... your fifth brother to fight in the northwest?"
The emperor disagreed: "What's wrong? Isn't it right? You guys, you really should learn from Lao Wu. Lao Wu still knows how to share my worries. He knows that I am most worried about the heavenly decree now. Look at you again, just don't share my worries.
You are still going through such troubles. Hongye Mountain is your territory. If such a big thing happens in your territory, how can you trust me to hand over the country to you? Please step back and think about it carefully when you go back.
Think, I hope you will think clearly about the responsibilities that a prince of a country should fulfill!"
"...Yes." The prince swallowed all the remaining words silently.
Murong Xiu couldn't help but glance at Jiang You and looked away.
The emperor said again: "Second brother, you should go back and have a rest. You are tired from all this going on. Others, please step aside, and I will talk to the chief minister for a while."
Murong Xian and Murong Xiu responded in unison and retreated.
Murong Xiu clenched his fists and slowly loosened them.
The emperor asked them to step down one by one, but he didn't deserve to be mentioned by the emperor himself, he only deserved to say...other people.
