General Raiders

He didn't forget to grab a handful of melon seeds and chew them with relish, giving one to himself and another to his concubine... After Mu Chengpei finished speaking, Changyin Pavilion was so quiet that even a needle could be heard falling on the ground. The crisp sound of the melon seeds breaking the skin was extraordinarily clear.

Mu Chenghuan: "..."

At a glance, there were at least a dozen pairs of eyes staring at him, and the emperor also looked over.

Mu Chenghuan had no choice but to hide the melon seeds in his sleeve, nodded solemnly and said, "You continue."

Mu Chengpei scolded the fifth prince in his heart, and smiled at the emperor: "Father, I found out that the fourth brother was sitting with the fourth emperor's wife, and the fifth emperor was sitting with the fifth emperor's wife. My son thought, If Erchen marries Zhengfei, he must be sitting with Zhengfei. But seeing Sixth Brother, Erchen is confused again."

After his words, almost everyone's eyes were focused on the sixth prince, and then they found that the person sitting next to the sixth prince was Yun Xi.Normally, this would not be a big deal at all, but Mu Chengpei deliberately used other princes and concubines to induce them, and when everyone looked at the sixth prince and Yunxi again, they figured out a somewhat different meaning.

"What did I think you wanted to say." Mu Ziyue's tone was relaxed as if joking: "Yun Xi and Cheng Ze have always been close, so it's worthwhile for you to say it deliberately?"

Mu Chengpei smiled and bowed: "Father taught me that. My son and I just don't understand how to be close, between brothers, between master and apprentice, or between husband and wife?"

Mu Chengjun also couldn't stand the Seventh Prince's deliberate show-off, so he couldn't help but said: "Ask the question knowingly. Of course it counts."

Mu Chengpei smiled and glanced at Yun Xi: "Then Brother Six and Cousin Yun Xi, which one is it?"

Mu Chengjun didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd, and said, "Of course we are both brothers and mentors."

Mu Chengpei just shook his head.

Mu Zi got a little impatient, combined with what the Seventh Prince said before, he said coldly: "You don't mean that Cheng Ze and Yun Xi are like your royal brother and sister-in-law, right?"

Mu Chengpei was very pleasantly surprised: "So the emperor also thinks so? It seems that I don't need to be confused."

"Presumptuous!" Mu Ziyue reprimanded lightly, "It's empty talk, you dare to say it!"

Seeing the emperor and the seven princes singing together, Mu Chengze felt bored without knowing their intentions.

Yun Xi was indeed a little frightened, he was most worried about the sixth prince, but Mu Chengze was not in the slightest, and Yun Xi herself could not show any flaws, it is true that he has a relationship with the sixth prince, but if there is no evidence to talk nonsense, it may be a fraud Their.

Mu Chengze moved his hand on his lap, and Yunxi saw him sign a word.

Fake.

The corner of Yunxi's mouth trembled suspiciously.

Mu Chengpei spoke with such enthusiasm that those who listened seemed to be in a fog.Mu Chengjun was silent now, Mu Chenghuan opened his mouth wide and forgot to eat the melon seeds, and said in surprise, "Ah?! You mean cousin and sixth brother..."

He looked back and forth between the sixth prince with an indifferent face and the seventh prince with a sinister smile, and scratched his head in confusion.

Mu Chengpei annoyed him the most, and he said loudly: "Do you not understand people's language? I mean the two of them have selfishness! Do you understand selfishness!"

"Seventh emperor brother, I understand." Mu Chenghuan weakly reminded: "You can't talk nonsense, you have to hit the board!"

Mu Chengpei gave him a contemptuous look, then turned to Mu Ziyue and said confidently: "Father, my son dares to say that there is certainly evidence."

Yun Xi frowned when she heard him say the word "evidence", but Mu Chengze remained calm.

Mu Ziyue waited for his words and said, "Submit it."

Mu Chengpei raised his hand and pointed at Yunxi: "It's on my cousin, my father will know it at a glance."

Mu Chengpei smiled and said, "My cousin has changed his clothes today, but the hairpin hasn't changed. Father, don't you think this jade hairpin looks a little more delicate?"

Yun Xi's heart sank, the Seventh Prince really came prepared!Actually guessed the origin of the hosta.

Mu Zi Yue frowned and took a look from a distance, said: "It does look familiar."

A servant came over and stood beside Yunxi, asking him to pull out the jade hairpin. Yunxi and Mu Chengze looked at each other and were about to raise their hands when Mu Chengze suddenly said, "Wait a minute!"

Mu Chengpei's eyes shot out with urgency, he wished that the sixth prince would make a fuss, and that would be tantamount to calling himself a fool.

Mu Chengze said slowly: "Father specially asked this son to come to listen to the opera, presumably for this reason. It doesn't matter what this son is, it's just a matter of his cousin's name, and this son has an ugly saying first."

"You said."

The more Muzi was displeased that he directly stated his intentions, he simply turned down his face, and didn't bother to continue acting.

A few days ago, Concubine Yang mentioned to him with a strange expression that the servants in Qixiang Palace accidentally bumped into the sixth prince crowning the brave general, and looked at the two with strange expressions.The more Muzi didn't think about how the servants of Qixiang Palace were in the harem, how could he "accidentally" bump into the sixth prince and Yunxi in the front court, instead he followed Concubine Yang's words and felt that the sixth prince and Yunxi were indeed too close. Even if the Sixth Prince's Mansion was built, the Sixth Prince would often spend the night in the General's Mansion, which is not the case for ordinary masters, apprentices and cousins.

Mu Ziyue carefully interrogated the servant, and the servant deliberately mentioned the jade hairpin worn by Yunxi, and asked about the style of the jade hairpin. Mu Ziyue already guessed in his mind that the sixth prince must have an affair with Yunxi, and that the prince and the prince concubine were married. The jade hairpin of love was given to Yun Xi.

Mu Ziyue had been emperor for decades, and asked himself what kind of secrets he had never seen before.Although the sixth prince and Yun Xi are cousins ​​in name, they are not related by blood. If one of them is a woman, they might have talked about marriage earlier.Even incest between brothers and sisters is not unheard of in history. In comparison, what is the goodness of Longyang?If you have to talk about master and apprentice, why did the royal family put seniority in their eyes? Some of his concubines were not allowed to marry in terms of seniority, didn't they all enter the palace anyway!

Mu Ziyue didn't care what happened to the sixth prince. In the past, he might just reprimand and let them go, but now he has a heart to suppress Yunxi. This affair came at the right time, and he can always make use of it if he wants to. of.

It's just that Mu Ziyue, who was begged by the officials in the Xuande Palace that day, also saw that "the sixth prince flirted with Yunxi" and "the sixth prince often stayed in the general's mansion" were not real evidence, and they were not enough to convince the public.Mu Zi became more and more eager to find evidence, and the jade hairpin with the prince's name on it was naturally the best evidence!Mu Ziyue is the king, and Concubine Yang is a woman in the deep palace, and the concubine mother of the sixth prince, so it is inconvenient to make trouble on this matter, so Mu Ziyue called Mu Chengpei, and after discussing it in this way, Concubine Yang was summoned by order. The theatrical troupe was singing in Changyinge, and Mu Ziyue hurriedly summoned the Sixth Prince and Yun Xi on the way, forcing them to have no time to respond, and then Mu Chengpei sat next to him, and after he saw it clearly, he questioned him on the spot.If Yun Xi didn't wear her hair, then she would secretly send someone to the General Xiaoyong's mansion to search, although this method is a little clumsy, but she can always find it in the end.

Everything was as he expected, as soon as Yunxi entered Changyin Pavilion Mu Ziyue paid attention to his attire, and sure enough there was a jade hairpin.Seeing that the job was done and the jade hairpin was about to be obtained, Mu Chengze suddenly jumped out and wanted to say something, but Mu Ziyue didn't take it very seriously.

Mu Chengze said slowly: "If there is something wrong with this jade hairpin, I have nothing to say, and I can deal with it as my father should. If there is no problem, what should I do?"

Mu Ziyue's eyes froze. Could it be that there was something deceitful in the Sixth Prince's tone?

Mu Chengpei thought he was just scaremongering, and said with a sneer, "If I wrong you and him, I will move out of Yuyang Palace and never enter the court again!"

"Cheng Pei!"

Muzi hurriedly wanted to stop drinking, this punishment was too much.

"Father, my son is very confident!"

Mu Chengpei nodded firmly. When he mentioned Yuzan just now, Yun Xi's expression changed for a moment, and he was not blind. The seat was rowed by Concubine Yang. Except for the sixth prince, he sat closest to Yun Xi and could Can't figure out what this hosta is?This time the emperor is with him all the way, what's so scary, it is exaggerated at this time, the emperor will definitely appreciate his contribution, and at the same time, he can get rid of the sixth prince and Yun Xi, killing two birds with one stone!

The more Muzi saw that he was so calm, he thought that the Seventh Prince should have seen it clearly a long time ago, so he didn't say much now.

The sixth prince was very satisfied with the promise of the seventh prince, he hooked his lips, and looked at Concubine Yang: "What about you?"

Concubine Yang groaned in her head, how could the sixth prince know that she was the one who informed him?Could it be that she secretly sent someone to follow the sixth prince and Yunxi and was discovered?

Mu Ziyue and Mu Chengpei looked at her together, Concubine Yang gritted her teeth, there were a hundred or eighty people who were not happy, but she still squeezed out a smile: "Your Majesty, if what I said is false, I would like to..."

She was suddenly dazzled, everything in Changyin Pavilion was dangling in front of her eyes, among them was the pale, unbelievable face of her daughter Yongyan.

Concubine Yang closed her eyes and said, "I wish to demote myself to be a palace servant."

Mu Chengze said coldly, "That's very good."

Yun Xi met his eyes, and immediately took off the jade hairpin that bound her hair, and handed it to the waiter who had been waiting.

From his seat to the front of the emperor, it is less than five feet.The servant held the hairpin forward with both hands, and walked slowly in front of everyone's eyes.

Mu Chengze only waited for the emperor's reaction. After he found out that he was being followed, he deliberately missed some loopholes, and then asked Wang Xiaohuan to find out the identity of that person, and soon found out that it was Qixiang Palace.Wang Xiaohuan sent someone to follow the servant, and found that he was indeed asking the Ministry of Internal Affairs about the jade hairpins of the princes.Mu Chengze ordered Wang Xiaohuan to bring out another hairpin, imitating the original style, and the difference in details can only be seen when you put it in front of your eyes. The later jade hairpin didn't have his name engraved on it, just waiting for someone to deliver it to your door.

Called urgently in the palace, Yunxi and him are not sure what is going on, it is always right to be cautious, so Yunxi is wearing a fake jade hairpin, which does not have the imprint of the Sixth Prince, in other words, she wants to use this to conclude that he and Yunxi have personal interests, is impossible.

73. Innocence

The servant presented the hosta, and after Mu Ziyue looked at it, a strange smile appeared on his lips.he will hairpin
