Sheng Shi Merciful Light

Mu Ci's attitude can be said to be peaceful, and she has a delicate, beautiful and tender appearance, but Li Chenggong still feels the aura of a superior without anger, and dare not take it lightly.It was someone from King Chu's backyard who asked again, sweating even more nervously, and quickly waved his hands to clarify: "No! No! The person I admire is you, and there is no one who misses you..."

Oops, I accidentally said all the words of love.

Mu Ci was not surprised at all, there are quite a lot of people who admire him, he said blankly: "He is not my male favourite, and you call yourself 'I', so just say what you want!"

"That's right!" Li Chenggong breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Lian Shuang...it should be my cousin. My mother is the eldest daughter of the Wei family. When the Wei family was accused of crimes, my mother was not among the nine families because of her marriage. Not implicated. In the direct branch, the third... third uncle and sixth aunt of the Wei family were sold into the theater troupe. Both of them died of illness many years ago. My son. My mother was most concerned about her blood relatives, and she has been trying to help, but my father and my grandfather..." Li Chenggong sighed and shook his head, "I can't blame my father and grandfather for that situation. My mother died of depression soon, Before he died, he told my second brother and I to help out as much as we can when we are able in the future. It is a pity that the two of us are also... We cannot protect ourselves, and we are unable to help too much."

After finishing speaking, Li Chenggong clasped his fists and bowed deeply to Mu Ci: "Thank you King Chu for your kindness, for helping cousin Lian Shuang escape from the sea of ​​suffering."

Mu Ci knew that Li Chenggong was right, he had Ye Xingwei in his hands, and the detailed investigation report on Li Chenggong had long been on his desk.

Li Chenggong also had a younger brother Li Chengjing, and the deceased biological mother of the two was indeed Wei Jing, the eldest daughter of the Wei family.It turns out that Wei Jing and Tian Shudi's eldest brother, Mu Chun, were childhood sweethearts and grew up together.Although Wei Jing is a woman, she is extremely capable, very much like the Queen's family back then, and Emperor Yonghe wanted to hire her as the eldest daughter-in-law, so that she would be a good mother in the world in the future... It can be regarded as a compromise with the Wei family, and another queen will be born.It's a pity that the Queen's family also knows that the Wei family is too prominent, and the most important thing is that she doesn't want Mu Chun to take the throne and marry Wei Yu far away to the Zhenbei Gongfu.

Later, Mu Chun was poisoned and killed. Emperor Tianshou invited him to go to the northwest border. The fateful Li Qixin also pushed into the Tianshoudi camp.

But these kindnesses are insignificant compared to the revenge of killing brother and forcing mother.After Emperor Tianshou came to the throne, he did not hesitate to attack the Wei family.The Wei family collapsed, and the Emperor Tianshou just made a special decree not to affect the married daughter. He gave Wei Chuo many comforts and rewards, and warned Li Qixin, who was still the son of Zhenbei Duke at that time, to treat her better.

Her natal family has collapsed, but Li Qixin still cherishes his wife. In fact, Wei Chuo's life is still going on, but her younger brothers and sisters who have always loved her are suffering and humiliated in a dirty way, and she can only watch and cannot help.This heart-wrenching feeling caused Wei Jing to suffer from a heart disease at a young age, leaving behind her husband and two young sons to die.

Li Qixin has always been obsessed with his dead wife, but the Emperor Tianshou couldn't change the daughter of the Wei family. To compensate him, he appointed the county magistrate of Pingyuan as his stepwife.

The county lord of Pingyuan is the only surviving legitimate daughter of the four princes who died in the "five kings' struggle for the throne", and her mother is Wei Jing's second sister.Because Emperor Tianshou had to behave "very innocent", he treated his brothers' descendants very "benevolently", and all adopted the strategy of "unprincipled pampering". The Lord Pingyuan County is the one who is more favored and very domineering.

The children of the brothers have become bad-tempered and annoying "stupid white sweets" everywhere, but they are "cute" who are not annoying to Emperor Tianshou.Even back when Concubine Xie was concubine Xie, she was a little bit proud of giving birth to two sons, she almost got embarrassed when she said a few words about County Lord Pingyuan.

Emperor Tianshou also pampered him unprincipled. In the end, the county lord Pingyuan was not punished, but instead married Zhenbei Gong in a high-profile manner.Concubine Xie was forced to go to Jingye Temple to contemplate her mistakes, and that's why Concubine Xie Chen entered the palace.

County Lord Pingyuan's ferocity and domineering were uncompromising, especially Li Qixin dared to show in front of County Lord Pingyuan that he never forgot his ex-wife. Her stepmother could not be any better to Li Chenggong and Li Chengjing's two brothers.She didn't have the brains to imitate the way the emperor was appointed to "praise and kill", either beating or scolding, and she didn't even care that she was also born to a daughter of the Wei family, and she had a relationship with the two sons of the Li family and cousins.

After County Lord Pingyuan gave birth to her own son... the two brothers of the Li family were stumbling blocks in front of her son, and naturally became thorns in her eyes.

Obviously it was the Emperor Tianshou who threw the domineering calamity star there, so he jumped out to be a good person at this time, and brought the two brothers of the Li family into Beijing... The generals on the border of the town would send some of their blood relatives to Tianjing City, and put them under the eyes of the emperor of.For example, the Yang family, the old general Yang Ya himself retired in Lishan on the outskirts of Tianjing, leaving his children and grandchildren at the border.The Li family sent Li Chenggong and Li Chengjing to Beijing, in the name of being educated, but in fact they were protons.

At the beginning, Mu Ci didn't know this, and wondered how the Heaven-sent Emperor, who had been a conspiracy theory all his life, would marry the daughter of the fourth prince and the second daughter of the Wei family's direct branch to Duke Zhenbei?She has a blood feud with Emperor Tianshou, isn't she afraid of problems in the northern border?

Looking at the result now, Mu Ci realized that Emperor Tianshou was really scheming.

It is impossible for Li Qixin to be of the same mind as County Lord Pingyuan, and County Lord Pingyuan can't make waves.However, Li Qixin's favorite eldest son and second son were inevitably murdered and had to be sent to be raised by the Emperor Tianshou.Emperor Tianshou regarded Li Chenggong as his confidant and placed him in the Sixth Army as a general of the first army. In the future, Li Chenggong will inherit the Zhenbei Duke's Mansion, so he will naturally be more loyal to the royal family.

Emperor Tianshou had asked Ye Xingwei to keep an eye on Li Chenggong in secret, fearing that he would harbor resentment in his heart because of his biological mother, Wei Jing.But Ye Xingwei hasn't found anything wrong with Li Chenggong for so many years, and he doesn't seem to be affected by the grievances of the previous generation.

Mu Ci has a good understanding of people, and Li Chenggong doesn't look like a hypocrite.

In fact, Li Chenggong looks good, he is a clear-faced, broad-eyed and elegant general, with a bit of aristocratic demeanor on his body, he likes to compose poems when he has nothing to do, write calligraphy and draw pictures of beauties, and dance swords is also pretty, I can't tell at all Ferocity in horseback riding.

Oh, by the way, he still loves outstanding and handsome men. Of course, this kind of love is not like Mu Ci treats a man like "one couple for life" and still has to get married.

Luckily, among the upper-class families, there is a trend of admiration for the same sex. In fact, they still have wives and concubines on weekdays, and they still have children. Strictly speaking, they are heterosexual, but the masculinity...isn't it popular?

A nobleman who is not fashionable and does not catch up with fashion is not considered a qualified nobleman, and will be despised and discriminated against.

Mu Yunge is the representative of them. He admires beautiful and outstanding young men, and there are many who have had romantic relationships with him. If Mu Ci didn't allow him to provoke Le Shu, Le Shu would also become one of his "little friends".Of course, they are different from Mu Shengyu who plays with others. They are emotional, sincere and sincere.

Moreover, the more beautiful and outstanding the man you admire, the higher the grade, the more you can improve the grade of the son of the family, that is called "celebrity and romance".This kind of admiration doesn't necessarily require xxoo to do something he likes to do, of course, he can hold his little hands, and it would be even more perfect if he had a good night, and it would be regarded as a good story.

So, having said so much, I just want to explain that Li Chenggong has always been deeply in love with Chu Wang Muci.

Mu Ci, who was born out of nowhere, has a beautiful face that breaks through the sky, a glorious demeanor, like a real fairy descending from the earth, with unparalleled wisdom, virtuous and respectful, law-abiding and reasonable character, caring for the people, benevolent and charitable... (omit the word praise) , so Mu Ci has become the perfect type worthy of admiration in the eyes of the aristocratic young master.

If it weren't for the fathers of these sons, they had either been taught by the King of Chu, or they were being taught.These sons had already rushed to the feet of King Chu, begging to hug their thighs, begging to have a good night.

Under such a big environment, Li Chenggong, as a diehard fan among the children of the aristocratic family, never concealed his admiration for the King of Chu, and wrote many poems praising the King of Chu, describing his desire to be close and happy with the king.I guess I met face to face today, and I want to draw a picture of a beauty for King Chu when I get home.

However, Li Chenggong did not forget the serious business, and asked again: "I wonder if you can allow me to meet my cousin?"

Mu Ci said lightly: "You are familiar with each other, and he is still a slave. You are not afraid of being heard by the censor."

Li Chenggong clasped his fists again and bowed: "His Royal Highness believes in kindness. He can take pity on Lian Shuang's cousin, and he must also allow me to call him. Regardless of other things, in terms of blood relationship alone, he is indeed my cousin."

"He has very few relatives, so he should be very happy to have a cousin pop up suddenly." Mu Ci said.

"It's really..." Li Chenggong blushed, "We really don't know about Lian Shuang... Third Uncle and Sixth Aunt didn't mention it, and the troupe master also kept it secret."

"I don't blame you guys, what can you do if you know? Back when Wei Yitang was alive...you couldn't do anything about it."

"Yes, I also want to fulfill my loving mother's wish, but..." Li Chenggong sighed, really ashamed.Speaking of which, the third uncle and sixth aunt did want to help, but they were too young to help.Later, the two brothers were brought up by the Emperor Tianshou, and they didn't dare to have too much contact with the Wei clan.

So I was very helpless, I would offend others if I met him face to face, and aroused the suspicion of Emperor Tianshou.I feel sorry for not helping.So Li Chenggong has been secretly funding some property and giving some medicines, but he dare not... and has no face to jump out to recognize each other.

"Well, he's not in the mansion recently, he's in Master Xi's piano studio. But don't bother him first, I'll ask him if he would like to see you first. Also, Lian Shuang is a stage name, and Wei Yitang gave it to him Name. If he wants to see you, let him say his name himself."

"Okay!" Li Chenggong was very happy, it was a promise to let him meet.

Mu Ci's face was solemn, and her cool tone was filled with endless majesty: "But there is one thing I want to warn you in advance, I recognize him as my younger brother in my heart, and my love for him is not fake. I don't care what difficulties you had back then, It doesn’t matter whether you have other purposes or not. Remember to me—if you recognize your relatives with him, be a good brother, treat him better, and don’t break his heart... because you can’t afford to make him sad s consequence."

Li Chenggong's heart trembled, and an inexplicable chill came from the soles of his feet to his back. He looked at the calm and serious King of Chu in astonishment, remembered the fate of those who offended him, and knew that the beauty he admired was not easy to provoke—— This is a rose with steel thorns.

But now he likes idols more, why is it swollen?

With a trembling heart, he said, "I have no malice."

"It's not the best, I just put the ugly words first, so as not to make everyone look bad." Mu Ci said lightly.

"Yes, I understand."

"Go back." Mu Ci waved to him.

"Yes." Li Chenggong stepped back, walked outside the main courtyard, and then wiped the cold sweat off his forehead with his sleeve.Ma Dan, why does he feel like he can't hide anything from the King of Chu?Fortunately, he didn't have any malicious intentions, otherwise...he had a feeling of being unable to get out of Chu Palace.

Everyone left, only Qi Yan remained, reporting on the progress of the preparations for the wedding, and asking if the palace should be decorated with lanterns and festoons.

Mu Ci said: "No need for now, take your time, don't push the palace into a hurry."

Qi Yan nodded.

Mou Yu brought the file of Ye Xingwei to Mu Ci to read.

Mu Ci finished reading it quickly, took pictures of these files, and asked a little annoyed, "Have you found out who is behind the scenes?"

"The happy trick is finishing, and the result will come out soon." Mou Yu frowned, "You are not such a restless person, why are you so irritable?"

"Of course it's not for these troubles. Anyway, I can protect Xinghai without causing any real harm."

"Yeah, so why are you so irritable? Isn't everything under control?"

Mu Ci pursed her lips and said, "The problem is that I told Xinghai 'as long as he promises, I will take care of everything'. Now that these things happen more and more, Xinghai will always have more hidden worries and fears, and he will pretend to be fine and not give me anything." Increase the pressure and don't let me worry about him. There are a lot of things recently, and he keeps himself as busy as a spinning top every day to reduce the pressure. I see him exhausted physically and mentally, so I can't bear to do it... Don't you think it's tasted When the love is strong, you have to endure it for more than ten days until you can't touch it casually, is it normal to be irritable?"

Mou Yu: "..." Can't help but glance at Mu Ci's bottom.

"What are you looking at? If you want to let me vent my anger." Mu Ci grabbed Mou Yu's wrist.

Mou Yu shook off Mu Ci's hand and rolled his eyes: "Let's find you Sea God to solve it."

Mu Ci showed a wicked smile: "This little brother, your thoughts are not pure, I just want to find you to practice physical skills."

Mou Yu gritted his teeth, and shot like lightning: "Just do it, be careful that I will kill you someday."

Mu Ci dodged easily, and fought against Mou Yu... In the end, Mu Ci was really trained until he collapsed.

Mou Yu knew the way, threw him into the Bilan Pool to soak in the hot spring, took him back to the bedroom after a massage, dressed and wiped his hair... Mou Yucai said: "I'm so surprised, the current situation, said In the end, you asked for it yourself, and if you insist on marrying Mr. Mei at this time, you think he doesn't have enough affairs."

"If it is delayed, it will make him more dangerous if he is not named. Now, at least the assassination method is not dared to be used on him. No one can bear the consequences of completely angering me. And I know that Xinghai can last live."

Mou Yu nodded: "He can really hold on. Although I don't want to compare, but... I have to admit that Mr. Mei is more suitable for you. He has enough ability, a firm heart, knows you understand you, never gives up, and will always Walk side by side with you."

Mu Ci just smiled happily.

……

Two days later, Qi Yan took a few newspapers to Mu Ci to look over, two of them were rather rough in printing.

Because some people wanted to punish Mu Ci, they just grabbed Mei Rong who was the easiest to break through, and the wind of public opinion was always blowing in an unfavorable direction.Not only "Yan Bao", but two other tabloids also began to take advantage of the incident that the king of Chu wants to set up a beard to be the king, without naming her name, and used insinuations to belittle Meirong into the dust, and even dug out a lot Mei Rong's previous "scandals", such as annexation of other maritime merchants, killing people (pirates) and extorting goods, even exterminating a race with tens of thousands of people on the island, and directly eating people...

Because it is true to exterminate a race by directly eating people, and the testimonies of real witnesses were found, so some radical people said that Mei Rong was a sea devil, and asked the king of Chu to kill the bewitching evildoer.

Mu Ci rolled the two tabloids into a ball and threw them into the arms of Mou Yu who was accompanying him: "Find a reason and seal up these two newspapers."

Mou Yu opened up the things in his arms to look at them, and immediately knew what was going on. With a half-smile, he used what Mu Ci often said to complain: "Can't calm down? Didn't you say it yourself? There must be opposing opinions."

Mou Yu couldn't see anyone taking advantage of Mu Ci's obedience to punish him, and he wished Mu Ci could not abide by the rules.

"No!" Mu Ci waved a finger in front of Mou Yu, "The real objection is beneficial to the whole, but it is spreading rumors and personal attacks and inciting social civil unrest."

Mou Yudao: "I checked earlier, these two newspapers are still rigid, there is no good reason to seize them, and these two newspapers have just applied for establishment, dare to say these, they should be just pawns, abandoned sons, to annoy you on purpose You have dealt with the "Yanbao", if you deal with these two, the public opinion will be even crazier, saying that you are oppressive, and it will be even more detrimental to Mr. Mei."

Mu Ci snorted coldly: "And I don't need to take action, the news management department established by Mu Yunge and the others should also work, and start the news censorship system."

Mou Yu nodded: "That's about the same. In fact, you don't need to do many things, and some people can help you."

Mu Ci just smiled, and continued to read the newspaper, and saw someone saying that Gao Fan and Nanli Guosui coins would be exempted.

Mu Ci sneered: "It's really a wicked heart."

"Princess Xining and Prince Duan Ze are not having a good time these days. Nanli has been trying to use them to persuade His Majesty, but His Majesty seems to be loose."

"This is impossible!" Mu Ci said, "However, it happens that Xinghai's matter is not easy to deal with. His methods are indeed a bit cruel. Others don't care what he is doing. He is getting darker and darker. He just used Nan Li and Gao Fan , to muddy the water and divert your attention. Ask Le Shu to come over and ask him to help me write an article for the newspaper."

……

The King of Chu fought back. This time, he did not borrow someone else's hand, but published an article he himself published called "Great Country Style" in the official newspaper with the largest circulation, the greatest influence, and the most profound content in Daxing—— On "Daily Morning News", several other newspapers reprinted it at the same time.

"Great Country Style" published an article of a few hundred words dictated by Mu Ci, edited by Le Shu, and edited by the champion Dou Zhe, which directly set off a storm of public opinion.

Mu Ci, the king of Chu, who was signed by Guang Chong, has enough gold content to attract everyone's attention and discussion. This is not only the idol effect of the whole people, but also because the official strategic remarks made by the king of Chu every time are indeed beneficial to the country and the people, and are rich in gold content.

This "Great Country Style" does not mention the polished ancient style of writing, but only talks about Mu Ci's general idea: what is the style of a big country.

The demeanor of a big country means that a big country must have its own beliefs and integrity, and more importantly, it must adhere to the beliefs and integrity it should adhere to.

First of all, "sovereignty and dignity, property must not be trampled on!"

Secondly, "the life, dignity, and property of every common people under the rule shall not be trampled on!"

Suppose a robber enters the house, robs the property and hurts the life of the family.In the end, everyone repelled the robbers. The government convicted the robbers and ordered them to pay a huge amount of compensation. What if?Yes, should, not less, because this is compensation for the blood and lives of the family members, because "the dignity of the people and their property cannot be trampled on!"

In the future, I will become friends with the robbers, exchange what I need, turn hostility into friendship, okay!Then you have to forgive his crimes after you become friends, that's fine.However, the previous compensation cannot be exempted.Although money cannot be exchanged for life, they are all exempted. How can we be worthy of the fresh lives of family members?How to soothe their souls?How to ensure that the surviving family members live safely in the future, and no robber dares to come again?

Each small family constitutes our great country.

The former robbers came from afar, and we greeted each other with good wine and good food, smiling to wipe away all grievances and enmity, what a great country!There is no need for compensation, it's a big country style! The blood of 42 soldiers and the lucky people can be wiped away with a smile; the souls of heroes who are invited into the Hall of Martyrs can be regarded as nothing;

So some robbers said: "It's a big country, it has style, don't care about it with a small country today, don't pursue the responsibility, and the compensation is exempted."In the future, you can rob property and kill people again. If you are a big country and have a style, you will never care about responsibility or compensation again?

Everything is just frightening, and it must be exempted.

A big country gives tolerance to robbers, but is unable to protect the people of a big country. How can it be demeanor?

I want the robbers to stop coming to the door!

They must be held accountable and punished severely, in order to protect the people of a big country from being trampled on at will.

Evil examples should not be set first, people should not be insulted lightly, and a big country should not be insulted lightly. It is evil to tolerate evil and condone evil.

Today's avoidance will surely lead to disasters in the future!

Alas, great country demeanor! !

This "Great Country Style" was polished by Le Shu, and it was written with rich emotion and emotion, suitable for the lucky people to read. Once it was published, the "Daily Morning News", which had already been printed with 20 copies, sold out in half an hour, and had to be reprinted urgently. Print [-] points, or sell out all in the afternoon.The same is true for other newspapers, and countless people are asking where they can be sold.

The paper in Tianjing City's inventory was emptied again.

For those who didn't buy it, I had no choice but to take up a pen and write down this article word by word, and read it carefully.Although there are no gorgeous rhetoric, it is deafening and thought-provoking.

Scholars who used to keep claiming "the demeanor of a great country" seem to have been slapped in the face and reorganized their three views-this is completely contrary to the Confucian education that has been instilled in them for many years, which puts benevolence first, but it is really Makes sense.

Tolerance turned out to be a sin.

As a result, public opinion overwhelmingly supported the demand for the old coins and condemned those who wanted to exempt the old coins by pretending to be a big country.There were also revelations that several officials had accepted bribes from Gaofan and Nanli envoys, which aroused public indignation and demanded that the traitors be severely punished.

Another mausoleum king proposed to invite scholars and famous elders to represent the people to participate in Gaofan's business negotiations, so Mei Rong haggled over everything at the negotiating table and insisted on insisting that Gaofan must make up for the old coins to ensure the interests of the country. , but considering Gao Fan's ability to bear, the practice of proposing various compensation plans has been publicized and quickly affirmed by everyone.

This is the demeanor of a big country, that is, to ask for supplementary compensation, but also to have noble morals, and to be considerate of the burden of a small country, which is the way a big country treats "guests".

Everyone thinks that Mei Rong, with brown hair and blue eyes, is a person who will be beneficial to Yu Daxing.As for the tabloids slandering him for cruelty and extermination... it should be nonsense!

"Daily Morning News" took advantage of Dongfeng to publish the progress of the negotiations with Gao Fan on the special page of the political situation. The detailed and specific terms of each item were published, which reflected the real style of a great country-protecting the lives of the country and the people, Dignity and property cannot be trampled on, and sincerity to reopen border trade with Gaofan, he did not take advantage of the situation to suppress Gaofan, but traded fairly.

The Gaofan envoy saw that the general situation was over, and there was no hope of getting rid of the old coins. There was also the unlucky reference of the "chicken" that was killed by the monkey in Xiliang, and the positive side of friendship between Nanzhi Kingdom and Tai Li Dynasty. Propaganda, besides, the detailed business terms did not infringe on Gao Fan’s interests, they were very fair, so they signed the detailed business agreement, and both sides sent people to build the business area.

The envoy of Nanli gritted his teeth, but it would be useless to bring out Princess Xining and the crown prince.

……

The overall situation is settled, Mei Rong can be considered free, and can accompany Mu Ci for a few days.But the two of them didn't have a leisurely life. Le Zhao, who was in charge of investigating the situation, entered the bedroom, ignored the two tired people, and said directly: "Two bad news: First, Li Chenggong admitted that Wei Chongsha had other purposes. , the picture is not small; second, the person who found out the whole president is Li Qixin!"
