Sheng Shi Merciful Light

Chapter 328 Who Is The Oriole

Mu Ci needs energy and gets hungry recently, so the two moved to the restaurant.The layout of the restaurant has not changed at all, Mu Zhan sees things and thinks about people, and thinks of Concubine Xie Chen accompanying him to dine, which is one of the few warm experiences he has of "home".Therefore, even though there were three hundred brocade guards guarding outside, Mu Zhan didn't feel uneasy at all.

I just feel a kind of relaxation at home.

The meals must have been re-prepared, and snacks were served first.Mu Zhan picked out two dishes: "This is your favorite five-bean cake and chestnut cake."

Mu Ci sniffed it, then shook her head critically: "If there is no fragrance made by Qin Shan, I won't eat it."

Mu Zhan didn't take it seriously, and picked out other dishes, but Mu Ci still didn't eat them.Mou Yu took a snack bag from his waist and handed it to Mu Ci. Mu Ci opened it and poured it on the table. After eating one, he said to Mu Zhan, "This one is more delicious, do you want to try it?"

Mu Zhan didn't ask anyone to test the poison, and under Li Hai's nervous gaze, he picked up a small white cube and stuffed it into his mouth.It was tasteless at first, but after melting a layer of rice film, it melted silky on the tip of the tongue, and the thick sweet and milky flavor filled the mouth...it is absolutely delicious.

Ninth brother really knows how to eat, and Mu Zhan's intoxicated expression is comparable to sucking some kind of fan.

Mu Ci said generously: "If you like it, I will make an extra serving of dim sum in the future and send it to the palace for you to eat."

"Okay!" Mu Zhan was not polite to his younger brother, nor did he have the slightest idea that children only eat toffee.

We haven't come for lunch yet, so we can talk about serious matters first.Mu Zan took out a memorial from his arms.This memorial has been touched to the rough edges, and it is worn next to the body, and there is also the body temperature of Mu Zhan's chest.

Mu Ci recognized that it was the memorial he submitted last month about the insect infestation after the warm winter.

Mu Zun asked: "The ninth brother said that last year was a warm winter, and that there will be a large-scale insect disaster this year. Do you have more evidence?"

"I wrote the reason in this memorial. The insect eggs on the grass blades were not frozen to death by the winter snow, and most of them survived. In the spring, they will flood and produce more than ten or even dozens of times the number of insects...crops All will suffer."

It was precisely because of this that Mu Zhan had a headache, rubbing his forehead and said: "Not only did the court fail to come up with a disaster relief plan, but they were still arguing. Some people said that the insect disaster was caused by the anger of the heavens and the earth. Sacrifice to heaven'. Some people say that you are alarmist, pretending to be a ghost, and daring to speculate on natural disasters based on a few grass blades based on the weather, and you will definitely provoke even greater punishment from the heavens."

Mu Ci was not surprised that there would be feudal superstitions. She didn't get angry or argue, and asked calmly, "What do you think? It's already April, and someone must have reported that there are more bugs in spring than in previous years."

"Yes, I asked Uncle Qinghe to make an unannounced visit to the place. After a walk, the news from him is: farmers and scholars have confirmed that this year is coming... No, there are already signs of insect infestation."

Because of this, Mu Zhan couldn't sleep for several nights. In a few days, he would be 29 years old and his first birthday, but he didn't feel at all.

However, pest plagues, how can we say that they can be cured by governance?Moreover, what should we do if we mobilize the power of the whole country to eliminate insects and delay the farming season?Besides, what is the effective method of extermination?In some places, locusts are still worshiped as messengers of the gods, and they dare not cull them. They can only watch the locusts cross the border without leaving a blade of grass.

This year is a nationwide outbreak of insect disasters, what will happen next year, coupled with the floods and droughts that will occur every year... Fortunately, the people will have a hard time. If one is not careful, the mob will riot, and the whole country will be in turmoil!

Now, neighboring countries are eyeing it with covetous eyes.

Internal and external troubles!

Mu Zan looked at Mu Ci expectantly: "Ninth brother, you must have a solution, right?"

Just as Mu Ci was about to speak, Li Hai came in and reported, "The Empress has arrived."

Mu Zhan suppressed his impatience and said, "Xuan!"

A woman with a leisurely demeanor and a graceful manner entered.

This is Empress Mei. She is not gorgeously dressed, but she does not look like a queen.Her appearance is not stunning, she doesn't have much resemblance to Mei Rong's aggressive handsomeness, but she is more gentle and amiable, with an elegant and noble smile on the corner of her mouth, which is very similar to Mei Rong.

Mu Ci noticed that Empress Mei's eyes were as clear and soft as clear springs, without any trace of haze or resentment, which made people feel comfortable even though they were not stunning at first glance;

When Empress Mei saw the emperor, she saluted with a smile: "May your family be blessed and safe!" It seemed that Mu Zhan's current black face and ten-year estrangement did not exist, and they naturally looked like a model couple who met every day and respected each other as guests.

Embarrassed and cold-faced, Mu Zun replied gently: "Excuse me!"

Mu Ci bowed to her: "Sister-in-law Wanan!"

Queen Mei's smile was even gentler: "Ninth brother is well!" Then she didn't talk too much, just sat next to Mu Zhan with a smile, and she was a very competent background board.

Mu Ci didn't take the initiative to talk to her, or was in a hurry to match her up.This woman has not been favored for ten years, but she doesn't look miserable, she has her own merits.

When the lunch was served, Mu Ci invited Mou Yu to eat together.At any rate, Mou Yu was the only adopted son of the first emperor, he was enshrined as the protector of the state, and he still had the qualifications to have dinner at the queen's table.

Many dishes were made by Qin Shan, Mu Ci enjoyed eating them, Mu Zan tasted them twice, his eyes lit up, and he exclaimed that they were delicious.Li Hai beside him broke out in a cold sweat... Oh, Your Majesty, I haven't found anyone to test the poison yet!

Empress Mei also noticed that she hadn't tried the poison, but she didn't point it out, nor did she hesitate at all. She stretched out her chopsticks with a smile, and tasted the food in front of her gracefully, with all manner of demeanor.But both Mu Ci and Mou Yu observed that Empress Mei only touched the same kind of food that Mu Ci had eaten on her plate.

However, Mu Zhan, who tasted every kind of food, did not appear to be in a state of poisoning, and Queen Mei gradually let go... the atmosphere became more harmonious.Then...the waiter brought four soups on a tray.Mou Yu's nose twitched slightly, and his brows frowned slightly.Mu Ci didn't change his face, and waited for the servants to put down the soup and file out, then he said calmly: "I don't drink this soup, it has medicine, and it tastes very strange."

Mu Ci thought the medicine was bitter, didn't like to smell the medicine, and didn't like to drink the medicine, which would damage the glorious image of the king of Chu who descended from the stars, so Mou Yu blocked the news, and not many people knew about it except his confidantes.Most of the various medicinal meals stewed by the Chu Palace every day entered the stomachs of Mou Yu and the others.

So the palace brought out this medicinal soup, although it was good for Mu Ci, but Mu Ci didn't eat it.

Mu Zhan was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and immediately understood, because Concubine Xie Chen was not in good health and often fell ill, but she didn't like to drink medicine, which made the Emperor Tianshou almost crazy at that time!He couldn't help laughing, took the soup bowl, stirred it, and took a sip, persuading him: "The taste is not strong, can you drink a little?"

Mu Ci willful said: "No!" Looking at the few people, she became more domineering, "You are not allowed to drink, you will talk to me later, I can't stand the smell of medicine."

But I don't know if a bowl of soup is right or not, so Mu Zhan didn't insist, and put down the spoon: "Okay, okay, I'll ask Yu Shansi to change the soup."

Mu Ci still shook his head: "Forget it, let's put it aside, I picked fresh mushrooms in Weiqiu, and Qin Shan can make ten fresh soup, so the taste is really delicious."

Mu Zan salivated: "Very good!"

The bowl of soup was left on the sidelines, no one cared about it, only Empress Mei looked at it thoughtfully.

The four continued to eat, and after a while, Li Hai suddenly crawled over, his voice trembling: "Your Majesty...it's not good..." Then he saw Mu Ci and Mou Yu who were sitting upright, he was very surprised for some reason, He was stunned.

Mu Zhan drank in a low voice: "Why are you in such a panic?"

Li Hai just came back to his senses, looking at Mu Ci was like seeing a flood of beasts, his voice trembled even more, and he could hardly complete a sentence... "Your Majesty... Your Majesty... King Chu's... Dian Shan is... Zheng Qin... Qin Shan wants to use it ...Her Majesty was harmed with meals...on the spot..."

"Tch!" Mou Yu sneered, because Li Hai's words should not be too obvious - the tone was set before the matter was clarified.

Mu Zhan's eyes widened, his brain didn't fully understand the meaning of Li Hai's words, but he knew that something was wrong, his subconscious mind reacted first, not because he was afraid, but he looked at Mu Ci with no suspicion, but just kicked Li Hai Kicked over, stared at him fiercely and roared: "What the hell are you talking about?" Then yelled frantically: "Yu Linjun! Yi..."

He didn't know whether it was because of anger or what, but he felt a little dizzy and couldn't help holding his forehead.Queen Mei hurried over to check, but was pushed away by Mu Zan...

fortunately!This is in Chonghua Palace!Fortunately, there are three hundred Jinyiwei here...

Mu Zan didn't have time to get scared, and he was strangely relieved, feeling extremely grateful, fortunately, he quietly let Jin Yiwei guard the Chonghua Palace.Then...he felt even more groggy, his eyes were blurred...is it?Poisoned?

He felt his scalp tingling and goosebumps popping, and he dared to slowly look at Mu Ci with blurred vision.

Mu Zhan shook his head, blinked, trying to see clearly!

Mu Ci's complexion did not change at all, she was still eating, her flowing movements did not stop and sluggish, she calmly put the food into her mouth, chewed slowly... her eyes were calm, like a true god above nine heavens, Throwing a mirror image into the mortal world at random, and then watching with cold eyes one scene after another as the reality leaves the ruins... It's a good show.

Mu Zun felt his heart being grasped by a big hand...

Only by controlling everything can he be so calm and calm, because he knows that all the storms in this world cannot shake a corner of his clothes.

Ninth brother?

Mu Zhan's vision was blurred again, and his ears were buzzing. It seemed that the heavy and orderly footsteps of armored soldiers were rushing towards him... Louder, heavier, closer...

Mu Zhan's eyelids jumped wildly, he tried his best to stand up on the table, stumbled and took a step... Empress Mei came to support again.

Mu Ci gently put down the chopsticks, but with a "snap" it seemed like a huge thunder exploded in Mu Zun's ears, and then he heard his voice so clear that there was no trace of impurity, and he said without the slightest emotional ups and downs: "Sit down!"

Mu Zhan's feet were firmly fixed in place by the words neither high nor low, neither fast nor slow.

He felt that he should be afraid at this moment, but he didn't feel it. His mind went blank, his heart seemed to have been dug out by a big hand, and he didn't feel any pain. Only his facial muscles trembled uncontrollably.

Mu Ci said coldly: "If my people make any mistakes, I will investigate to the end." He said this while looking at Li Hai who was kneeling on the ground and trembling.

But Mu Zhan felt a chill rushing down from the back of his head, and the blood flowed backwards all the way, congealing to the brain, and then he heard a sentence that was obviously made by him, but seemed to be separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, and he didn't really argue: "It's not... …I……"

Mu Ci glanced at him, extremely indifferent...then kicked Mou Yu under the table.Mou Yu, who was still eating at the moment, raised his head in a daze, and looked at Mu Ci suspiciously.

Mu Cihei stared at him with inorganic eyes.Rao even Mou Yu couldn't bear this look, and muttered: "I'm not full yet." But he still stood up!

This little movement startled Mu Zhan so that he subconsciously took a step back. He couldn't stand still, and Queen Mei couldn't support him, and he fell too.With quick eyes and quick hands, Mou Yu grabbed his chair and swung it in a circle in the air...and got under Mu Zan's buttocks, but he heard Empress Mei scream and hugged Mu Zan tightly.But Mu Zan fell into the chair, embraced Queen Mei, turned his face subconsciously, and almost wailed, "Don't kill me!"

Mou Yu: "..."

He realized that the movement of throwing his chair was really like hitting someone with a chair!With his force value, he will smash people to death.Also, because when Mu Zhan was still the third prince, he ruthlessly "given" him a pot of Yuquan spring wine according to the order of the heaven-sent emperor. At that time, it must have left him with the shadow of death, so he subconsciously feared that he would kill someone!

Then, an even weirder thought came to his mind: This guy's psychology is normal, he didn't shout "Don't slap your face!"

So many thoughts just made him flash, and he was slapped on the face.It was Empress Mei who glared at him: "How dare you dare to scare the Jun family?"

"Sister-in-law played well!" Mu Ci also patted Mou Yu a few times, "Even if the situation is urgent, you must be careful, even I will be surprised by you."

Mou Yu hurriedly made an apology, then rubbed his face, went to the window to check, and gave an order to the Jin Yiwei who was guarding outside: "Don't go out, go to the wall, first warn, then stop. Anyone who dares to step into Chonghua Palace , shoot to kill!"

At the same time, he raised his arm, and the arm crossbow shot a red signal arrow, which was improved and made a shrill sound, piercing the sky in the bright afternoon sun.That light, obviously not strong, seemed to tear open a bloody scar in the sky.

Mou Yu muttered: "He Chunhui's stuff is really good."

Mu Zhan's drowsiness was still there, but he barely knew that Mu Ci would not hurt him. He pushed away Queen Mei and sat on the chair, but his eyes were still empty, with a desperate expression on his face.

Mu Ci sighed and stood up.

Mu Yan's eyeballs also moved.But still lifeless.

Empress Mei also understood, and she was still graceful, but she showed a wry smile: "Ninth brother, if there is any misunderstanding between brothers, sit down and discuss it! The Jun family has loved you since childhood, and will never let you be wronged."

Mu Ci's gaze softened visibly, and he said innocently: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, it will be fine!"

Although Empress Mei met Mu Ci for the first time, she had gotten to know the young man through many channels, and she trusted him for no reason.Even at this tense and weird moment, she was supposed to be on guard against Mu Ci, but she had a feeling that with Mu Ci around, she felt at ease.

Then, she silently walked behind Emperor Deguang.

This is a man, an emperor, and he will not let a woman stand in front of him.

Mu Zan and Mu Ci, the two brothers face each other directly.

Mu Ci walked over, stood in front of Mu Zan, then leaned slightly, and hugged Mu Zan's head in her arms: "Third brother, I know, it's not you!"

"Yeah!" Mu Zhan raised his hand very hard, controlled his soft hand, and hugged Mu Ci. There was a kind of grievance and peace of mind that a wronged child finally believed, just like back then, he obviously didn't push the sixth brother, but Only his aunt believed in him and saved him.

He hugged Mu Ci, with tears streaming down his face, and asked weakly, "Am I poisoned? Will I die?"

"It's just a drug. It's in the medicinal soup. You only take a small sip, and you'll recover in a while."

"you know?"

"I can smell it, but you drank it before I stopped it. Also, there are drugs in those plates of snacks." Mu Ci said.

Mu Zhan couldn't help repeating: "It's really not me!"

Mu Ci patted his back and comforted him: "Well, I know, otherwise you wouldn't know how to drink soup."

"How's it going outside?" Mu Zhan felt better, and the sound of killing outside could be heard more clearly.

"No one can come in, don't worry."

Mu Zhan struggled to stand up: "I want to go out!" He wants to go out to control the situation, he is the emperor.

But Mu Ci hugged him tightly: "Brother, don't go out! I won't let you go out."

"Ninth brother?" Mu Zhan raised his head in doubt.

"I don't doubt you, I'm just afraid that you will be in danger." Mu Ci lowered his head, looked at Mu Zhan calmly, and said something shocking lightly, "Some people say that I murdered you. If you have something to do, I don't care if I do it or not." However, this charge cannot be cleared, and I will definitely die, understand? Brother..."

Mu Zan stared at Mu Ci, his vision was still a little blurry, he couldn't see Mu Ci's expression clearly, only felt that Mu Ci's dark eyes like a pool were so dark that they couldn't reflect any light from the world.

However, Mu Zan is no longer afraid!

Because that "brother" was a curse that completely recalled Mu Zhan's soul, returning his three souls and seven souls to their positions.He suddenly laughed, extremely happy, as if he was perfect in this life without any regrets; and extremely sad, as if he was a lone star of heaven and earth...

Mu Zhan said: "Understood!" He hugged Mu Ci's waist so tightly that Mu Ci couldn't breathe.

Mu Zan was happy, and then smiled sadly and said: "Brother, I have been betrayed... only you are left!"
