The Penglai envoy returned to the posthouse, feeling a little disappointed.
Xian Le was waiting in the room, still anxiously waiting for news from the envoy.
"Sir, you are back. The princess has been waiting for a long time." When the maid saw the envoy coming back, she hurriedly greeted him.
"What did the Emperor of Fengtian say?" Xianle looked at the envoy nervously.
The envoy did not dare to look into the princess's eyes and quickly bowed. "Princess, in order to implement the new domestic policy, His Majesty the Fengtian Emperor set an example by loving only one person, and... he already has his heart set on something."
Xian Le was stunned for a moment and stood there.
The maid was a little worried, but she didn't dare to say anything more.
Sitting feebly on the bed, Xianle was silent for a long time, looking very sad. "I will only love one person in my life, one husband and one wife. The emperor of Fengtian is really admirable."
"Princess, your majesty has agreed that you stay in Fengtian and will treat you with courtesy as a princess. You can give her a princess palace and recruit a husband for you. Penglai will definitely be satisfied." After all, Penglai gave a lot of help in the battle at Jiayuguan.
help.
Xian Le lowered her eyes in despair, her eyes red. "I don't want to marry anyone else."
"Princess, Your Majesty has agreed to your stay. This is already a good thing. No matter what, we will take it one step at a time." The maid quickly reassured.
Xian Le sat on the bed in despair, saying nothing.
I had a surprise glimpse in the palace today, and it seems to have been imprinted in my heart.
What's more, that person has really been to the Poison Valley in Southern Xinjiang, and he must have seen it before.
I originally thought this would be a good fate, but unexpectedly... the other party already had his heart set on him. "I really want to know what kind of woman he likes."
"We have never heard that His Majesty Fengtian has anyone he admires... There was a queen and two concubines before, but later... the queen committed suicide out of fear of crime, and there was no news about the two concubines." The envoy only inquired,
What exactly happened cannot be verified.
However, the emperor of Fengtian had no new members in the harem since then, and even the maids were transferred out of the inner palace, leaving only a few trustworthy people to serve him.
"There are also rumors that Fengtian likes the south wind. The reason why His Majesty Fengtian...has no one in the harem must be because he likes men. I also heard that the Fengtian emperor's lineage inherited the news that Qin Wang Xiao Minyan liked the south wind and had a broken sleeve.
It has spread all over the streets, even three-year-old children know it."
The maid told the princess what she had heard, and wanted to tell her not to be too sad. Marrying such a person would not lead to happiness.
But Xian Le became more and more disappointed. Could such a man with a beautiful tree like the wind actually like men?
…
Mujia, ancestral temple.
Mu Family General Tomb, all generations of Mu family members were buried not far from the imperial mausoleum after death, indicating that they remained loyal to the monarch and defended the country after death.
Brother Shu Zheyu has been in Kyoto for many days, but has never set foot in the Mu family mansion.
If Mu Jingche hadn't personally come to the Shen family's door to invite him, his brother Shu Zheyu probably wouldn't have chosen the so-called acknowledgment of his ancestors.
"Zhe Yu, this kid... looks like our Mu family at first glance." Mu Jingche looked up at the boy who was half a head taller than him, and patted his shoulder with satisfaction. "A very strong young man.
people."
Brother Shu Zheyu looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, a little strange.
The other party is somewhat similar to Mu Jingyan, and his brother Shu Zheyu also knows that the other party is the current head of the Mu family and Mu Jingyan's biological brother, Mu Jingche.
But it was inevitable that Brother Shu Zheyu was a little unfamiliar with this uncle.
"Zhe Yu, this is your uncle." Shen Qingzhou took the initiative and asked his brother Shu Zhe Yu to recognize him.
Brother Shu Zheyu was silent for a long time, but still raised his hands and bowed. "Uncle."
"Zhe Yu is a good name." Mu Jingche smiled and nodded, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.
I originally thought that my younger brother had been dead for many years, but I didn't expect that he was resurrected from the dead and found again. Now he not only has a wife, but also has a son as old as him.
Very good, very good!
"The name was given by Uncle Mu Di." Ge Shu Zheyu explained.
Mu Jingche's smile was somewhat unnatural and he said nothing.
Shen Qingzhou lowered his eyes. "Since you have chosen to come back, you will naturally recognize your ancestors and return to the clan. Today you will worship at the ancestral temple. In the future, you will take on the responsibilities of the Mu family, be loyal to the emperor and patriotism, and support the burden of the Mu family."
Brother Shu Zheyu took a deep breath and nodded.
Mu Jingche glanced at Shen Qingzhou and said nothing more.
Once upon a time, the Mu family and the Shen family became fierce rivals after Mu Jingyan's death.
Now, this is also an opportunity to bury the hatchet.
Indeed, all Shen Qingzhou's actions against the Mu family back then were all to protect the Mu family.
If he hadn't done that, how could the late emperor's suspicious temper have kept the Mu family alive until now.
Mu Jingyan is dead, and there is no need for the Mu family to keep him.
However, Shen Qingzhou acted as an enemy of the Mu family at every turn, so the late emperor felt that the two parties could act as a check and balance.
The late emperor knew the way of an emperor well, so Shen Qingzhou did the opposite.
If there is anyone who knows the late emperor best in the world, it is probably Shen Qingzhou.
Shen Qingzhou always protected the people he wanted to protect in his own way, but never thought of asking for anything in return.
It's just that...it hurts my daughter and makes her suffer too much.
If Shen Qingzhou had a clear conscience in his life, he was only ashamed of Chaoyang.
This is a sin that he will never be able to atone for, even if he tries his best for the rest of his life.
"Zhe Yu, you are Jing Yan's only son and the youngest of my Mu family. You have two older brothers, and they will protect you." Mu Jingche asked his brother Shu Zheyu to offer incense.
There were very few people who came to worship this time. After all, they were on the Huangling Mountain outside the imperial city.
Outside the ancestral temple.
Jiufeng is sitting on the top of the mountain, whistling.
The figure that was always mixed with snow and gray rushed over.
"Little one, have you missed me?" Jiufeng brought a lot of food and happened to feed it.
The little wolf nuzzled in Jiufeng's arms, bit into a piece of roast chicken, and after two bites, it went into his stomach.
Jiufeng smiled, rubbed the little wolf's head and gave it some meat.
Suddenly, the wolf pricked up its ears alertly and stared at the distance not far away.
"Ouch!" He raised his neck and roared, and Xiaolang asked Jiufeng to look down the hillside.
At the foot of the hillside is the Mu family's ancestral temple, and several men in black are approaching quickly.
Jiufeng's heart tightened, he picked up the bow and arrow on the ground and shot towards the ancestral hall.
…
In the ancestral hall.
Ge Shu Zheyu completed the ancestor worship ceremony and stood there looking at the ancestral tablets up and down the Mu family, lost in thought.
When people live, sometimes they live for burdens and invisible responsibilities.
In the past, he was alone and never thought about how to live or why he lived.
He only knew that he wanted to live, and since he wanted to live, he had to become strong.
The road to becoming a strong man is lonely, and he has to walk it slowly.
But now, he suddenly has a family, a lover, everything...
Invisible pressure was on his head, forcing him to change and think deeply.
I have to think carefully about how to walk more steadily and make the people I care about and those who care about me feel at ease.
"Whoosh!" A vision cut through the air and made a harsh sound.
Mu Zheyu turned around warily and looked outside the ancestral temple.
"It has a tail." Shen Qingzhou leaned against the window and took a look outside.
Mu Jingche was stunned for a moment. "Who wants to touch the Mu family in Fengtian?"
"You're not here for the Mu family, you're here for Zhe Yu or me." Shen Qingzhou's eyes darkened.
The killers were approaching, but Shen Qingzhou... didn't notice it. "It's the medicine man!"
[The author has something to say]
My dear brother, Shu Zheyu has officially changed his name to Mu Zheyu, hahaha... I actually don’t think it sounds as good as my brother Shu Zheyu.
