Chapter 526 Xiao Junze is trying to get hold of it?
Royal palace, inner palace of the palace.
The sky was extremely gloomy, there was no sunlight in the morning, and it was still as dark as a dark night.
Chaoyang hugged the human-shaped pillow beside him on his hands and knees, seeming extremely insecure and unwilling to let go.
She had a dream, in which she fell into the water and floated on the endless water, with only a piece of driftwood in her arms and nothing else to rely on.
Xiao Junze allowed Chaoyang to hold him, not daring to move.
He smoothed her slender black hair soothingly, and her eyes were full of endearment.
The years are quiet and peaceful, which is probably the scene in front of me.
But for Xiao Junze, this kind of tranquility is just a gift when Chaoyang is drunk.
"Your Majesty, it's time to get up early and pay your respects..." Ah Cha's voice came from outside the palace.
Xiao Junze frowned, looked at Chaoyang with some reluctance, and couldn't bear to push her away.
"Your Majesty..." Ah Cha was a little confused.
"It's rainy today and I'm not feeling well. I'll allow them to hand over a note and leave." Xiao Junze was a rare act of selfishness. He didn't want to go to court and just wanted to indulge himself.
Ah Cha didn't say much and hurriedly sent someone to deliver the message.
There are still Gu butterfly eggs in His Majesty's body that have not broken out of the cocoon. Originally, the imperial physician and Divine Doctor Xue did not allow him to go to court. The ministers all knew it well. Even if Xiao Junze did not come, it would be excusable.
But Xiao Junze was silent for a moment, then quickly stood up and walked out of the inner hall.
…
The imperial city was shrouded in gloom, and the rain was still pattering.
Mujia, mansion.
"Cheng'er, tell your father, what do you think?" Mu Jingche took a sip of tea and asked with a frown.
He quite understood his own son. The family had tried hard to force him to get married before, so why did he suddenly change his mind and demand to marry Rouran's princess?
Although his Mu family is worthy of a little Rouran princess, after all, this matter has risen to the level of a family and country matter and cannot be taken carelessly.
If Mu Huaicheng has no interest in the princess, then this marriage may not be a good thing.
"Although parents make the final decision on marriage matters, you have to know that without feelings, marriage will be boring and boring, and it will affect your emotions." Mu Jingche sighed and looked at Mu Huaicheng who had been silent.
Obviously, his son was not entirely happy about this marriage.
Whether you love someone or not can be seen in your eyes.
"My son only knows that marrying Princess Rouran will be helpful to the peace between Fengtian and Rouran." Mu Huaicheng's voice was low.
"My Mu family has dedicated our lives to the royal family. This sacrifice is nothing..." Mu Jingche frowned. Although he said so, he sacrificed his son's marriage to seek peace. After all, he felt that there was a gap.
A little bigger.
"Father, have you ever loved your mother?" Mu Huaicheng asked in a low voice.
Before meeting Chaoyang, Mu Huaicheng never thought that a woman could occupy a big position in his heart.
If the family, country and world are not at peace, he will not be as affectionate as his uncle Mu Jingyan.
At least, he would not abandon the world for a woman.
Mu Jingche's hand holding the tea cup stiffened for a moment and he blew on the tea foam. "Mu family members, loyalty is more important than anything else."
Mu Jingche said it very euphemistically. He didn't love Mu Huaicheng's mother, but he had to marry her because Emperor Chengde granted her marriage.
He is the eldest son and the pillar of the Mu family.
Mu Jingyan can be willful because he is there to support him.
He also had a girl he liked, but feelings were the most powerless and useless thing to him.
"Ha..." Mu Huaicheng smiled sarcastically.
He understands.
Because we are from the Mu family, His Majesty's marriage grant is more important than anything else.
He obviously doesn't love his mother, but he still wants to marry his mother into the house.
Over the years, my father and mother have treated each other like guests, but their lives have been too peaceful, like a pool of stagnant water. These days... there are no waves.
"Emotions are worthless in front of the country. The fact that you agree to ask for the princess shows that you have figured it out." No matter what the reason was, Mu Huaicheng suddenly understood. "Since you have married the princess, you should take the responsibility."
It is your duty as a man and as a husband."
Mu Huaicheng's palms were already covered in blood. He stood up suddenly and left straight away.
This feeling of being suppressed by invisible hands to the point of suffocation drove him crazy.
…
Royal palace, inner palace.
When Chaoyang woke up, his head was still a little heavy.
This wine left in the soil should not be drunk casually as it has a bit of stamina.
"Are you awake?" It was still dark outside the room. Xiao Junze thought he was very gentle and asked, but he was so frightened that Chaoyang almost attacked him.
When his fingers were about to touch Xiao Junze's neck, Chaoyang stopped his hand in annoyance.
"If Your Majesty doesn't go to the morning court, do you plan to let those ministers continue to kneel outside and force you to draft girls?" Chaoyang still felt a little resentful for no reason.
This resentment was not vented even though I was drunk last night.
Xiao Junze stood up with his head propped up and said resentfully, "I'm back."
He originally didn't plan to go to the morning court, but he was afraid that those ministers would come up with some bad ideas, so he hurried to beat everyone.
Chaoyang was stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed. "What time is it now?"
It was all because of the weather that she mistakenly thought it was still early morning.
"As a maid, you slept in my bed after noon. What do you think I should do with you?" Xiao Junze's eyes turned black. Chaoyang bit and hit him last night. If he wasn't afraid that he would take advantage of others' danger,
Even if he regrets it too late, he will not stay up all night and endure it until he goes crazy.
Chaoyang's ears turned red and he stood up abruptly. He saw the tooth marks on Xiao Junze's neck and his head exploded. "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, I remember that I still have some things to do, so I'll go first..."
"Cleaning the courtyard? Chunlan has already finished it for you." Xiao Junze still said quietly.
"And..." Chaoyang looked like she still had something to do.
"Bring me lunch? Ah Cha is ready." Xiao Junze raised his chin and pointed in the direction of the table.
The exquisite snacks and crystal steamed dumplings are all neatly arranged and are still steaming.
"Ha... Your Majesty, please hurry up and eat, slave..." Before he could finish his words, Chaoyang was about to run away.
She thought she would handle everything calmly, but recalling that Xiao Junze's current "embarrassment" was all her fault, she just wanted to escape.
"Last night, a fox bit me and punched and kicked me. The wound was split open and my body was bruised. In the end, it held me in its arms and refused to let go. This fox was so audacious that it made me
I didn't close my eyes all night, but I didn't dare to touch it, for fear that the fox would wake up and run away and disappear..."
Xiao Junze trapped Chaoyang in a corner and punched the wall behind her.
This punch was not of anger, but of forbearance.
Chaoyang's heart skipped a beat, and he lowered his eyes and said nothing.
"Chaoyang, I will give you another chance, leave now... hide in the Mu family. As long as you are in Fengtian, I, Xiao Junze, will definitely protect you, Aya, and the Mu family. You can trust me." Xiao Junze said.
The voice was forbearing and hoarse.
He let Chaoyang go for the last time.
Is this what Xingyi told him this morning, asking him to try hard to get?
To be honest, he is more scared than anyone else right now, and he doesn't dare to use this method...
With Chaoyang's temperament, if you let her go, she might really leave.
I still felt a little regretful, and secretly scolded Xingyi for having a bad idea.
If the morning sun just went down the steps, he would have hung the star on the altar to be exposed to the sun for three days.
