After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

In fact, it is unnecessary to ask these questions. He is Yan Mu. He has great methods and strategies. He can even use his own amnesia and accurately grasp the time to restore his memory. How could he not even take these things into consideration.

Liu Yunxiang stood up and turned around to see Yan Mu glance at her, then quickly lower his head and continue to play with the petals of the crabapple.

She was silent for a moment and said, "Give it to me."

Yan Muyi was puzzled, "What?"

"Sipa."

"Are you curious?"

"Unless you didn't send it to me."

Yan Mu didn't hesitate here and quickly took it out of his sleeve pocket and gave it to Liu Yunxiang.

"Make it clear that even though I'm angry with you, I still love you."

Liu Yunxiang put the silk handkerchief on his hand, with begonia flowers embroidered on it, which represented lovesickness. He bought it for her before he recovered his memory. He loved her more purely then, but now, his love is too mixed.

She put it away and looked through the window to see Changning in the courtyard. She was still sitting at the stone table busy with something, "At least she is sincere to you and has risked her life to save you several times."

The stamper sneered, "I want to marry the woman who loves me and is sincere to me?"

"At least don't take advantage of her."

"Am I, Yan Mu, some kind of saint? You should know how bad I am. As long as I can use it, I will use it completely, except for you and the two children."

Liu Yunxiang sighed, this was Yan Mu, but in her eyes, he was not as miserable as he said.

After coming out of the main room, Liu Yunxiang walked into the yard, and then he saw Chang Ning kneading noodles. Because of his unskilled technique, the white noodles were scattered everywhere. But she was making it very seriously, adding white flour when it was soft and water when it was hard.

"It seems like too much water was added."

She whispered, picked up the noodle bowl, and poured the whole bowl directly into it.

Liu Yunxiang couldn't help but said: "You have to release it little by little, this won't work."

Chang Ning looked up and saw her, a little surprised, and then said: "When Yan Mu and I were in Beijin, he liked my hand-made noodles very much, and he would eat a big bowl every time."

Liu Yunxiang pouted, "It's probably not very tasty."

"Why don't you, princess, stay and try my handiwork?"

"Forget it, I won't be tortured with him."

Chang Ning looked at Liu Yunxiang again, with a look in his eyes, "The Queen intends for me to marry into the Zhenbei Palace."

"Yes, congratulations to the princess."

"Would you object?"

"Some people protect my husband from knives, some make medicine for my husband, some make dough for my husband, and take care of him with all their heart. I am happy and free. It's not just a status, I give it to her."

Chang Ning narrowed his eyes, "But I am greedy and want the only one. He can only be my husband."

"Then it depends on the princess' ability." Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "Before, the princess assassinated me outside the city, but she failed."

"You know it's me?"

"If anyone wants to kill me, they must plan carefully. Only the princess is eager to kill me. Oh, by the way, the princess was also the one who presented Yan Mu and Begonia lanterns that night. She also disguised herself as a man. She really took the trouble. Just look at it. , you gave him crabapples, but he gave them to me."

As she spoke, Liu Yunxiang took out the Haitang silk handkerchief Yan Mu gave her, unfolded it and gave Chang Ning a look.

Seeing Chang Ning's lonely expression, Liu Yunxiang smiled and said, "Princess, please continue making noodles. It's best to add less water later."

A few days later, Chau Meng met with the Luzhou chief envoy and military governor in Yanzhou and provided evidence that they had secretly forged weapons. At this time, Shangguan Xu was off guard and hurriedly defended Luzhou. However, the emperor had been to Luzhou and knew it well, so he didn't listen to Shangguan Xu's explanation and reprimanded him in court.

The emperor was still hesitant, so Yan Mu gave the emperor a detailed account book of the taxes and money embezzled by Luzhou's governor and governor over the years. When the emperor saw the last series of figures, he was furious and immediately decided to exempt Luzhou's governor. Zhenghe was given the title of military governor and recalled to Beijing for investigation.

Luzhou, together with the north and south, is not far from Shengjing. The chief executive and military governors have been withdrawn at the same time, so the vacancies must be filled as soon as possible. Shangguan Xu's old nest was here and he couldn't miss it, so he recommended Shen Yunzhou despite his anger.

There is currently no other suitable candidate in the DPRK, and Shen Yunzhou is indeed suitable.

However, Yan Mu stood up and objected, saying that Shen Yunzhou's political performance was mediocre and nothing outstanding, and Luzhou was in a mess right now, and he was afraid that he did not have the ability.

Shen Yunzhou recommended himself, and Yan Mu said that it would be better to simply promote a new official from the Hanlin Academy rather than a mediocre person like Shen Yunzhou.

The two faced each other tit for tat and had a quarrel in the court.

The emperor was troubled, said it would be discussed later, and went down to court.

After coming down from the court, Shangguan Xu invited Yan Mu and Shen Yunzhou to the restaurant.

"After all, you two are good brothers who grew up together. You shouldn't be making such an ugly scene in the court today." Shangguan Xu said and poured a glass of wine for each of them.

Yan Mu sneered coldly, "Brother? When I went to Beijin, he was the one who put poison in my mouth, right? Oh, by the way, he was ordered by your adoptive father. You two are a good father and son!"

Shen Yunzhou picked up the wine glass in front of him and spilled the wine directly on the ground. "Since we are torn apart, there is no need to drink this wine."

Yan Mu threw the wine glass away, "There's really no need to drink, and there's no need to be hypocritical."

With that said, he stood up and rushed to Shangguan Xu and said proudly: "I finally changed the fate of Luzhou, and there is no way I will let you fill in my own people."

"King Zhenbei is too loud. Do you really think you can control this matter?"

"By the way, Master Shen suffered a lot when he was in Nanzhou, right?"

Shen Yunzhou was stunned for a moment, then slapped the table and stood up, "I was assassinated several times, and it turned out to be you!"

Yan Mu twitched the corner of his mouth and said with cold eyes, "You are lucky, but sooner or later, I will kill you."

Shen Yunzhou couldn't help it anymore and punched Yan Mu with his fist. After Yan Mu dodged, he immediately struck back. The two of them fought in the private room, while Shangguan Xu stood in the corner and watched them quietly.

Both of them used their full strength to target each other's vital points without sparing any mercy.

Seeing that Shen Yunzhou was suffering all the time, Shangguan Xu narrowed his eyes and went up to catch Yan Mu's fist.

"Lao Qi, please give your adoptive father and your fifth brother a face this time and let him go to Luzhou."

Yan Mu shook off Shangguan Xu's hand and sneered: "Absolutely impossible!"

After saying that, he strode downstairs.

Shen Yunzhou took a deep breath and said, "Father, Luzhou is too important and must not be lost. Since he is targeting me, let's change him to someone else, as long as he is one of ours."

Shangguan Xu stretched out his hand and patted Shen Yunzhou's shoulder, frowning and said, "I didn't expect him to come up with such a trick to drain the fire. I was negligent."

"Our people were trapped in Nanzhou, which gave him an opportunity."

"I think this is also a step in his plan. This kid is too scary."

Liu Yunxiang was sitting here with Qu Moran, not expecting Yan Mu to come, and not long after, Shen Yunzhou also came with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

Shen Yunzhou covered the swollen half of his face and glared at Yan Mu, "You're too damn harsh!"
