The tyrant thinks I love him miserably

On the day when Xiao Luobei led his army back to the court, all the courtiers lined up to welcome him to celebrate the great victory of the Holy Lord in the Western Regions. The left minister Tao Zhen also brought Tao Yu to pick him up.Mu Wanzhou quietly looked out from the chariot, and saw Tao Zhen's livid face at a glance, and the hand that was raised to salute was trembling slightly.

Beside him was Tao Yu with a happy face.Unlike his father, Tao Yu had been looking forward to seeing Mu Wanzhou for many days.Before that, he learned that Mu Wanzhou had gone to the Western Regions with Xiao Luobei, and he was worried day and night, for fear that he would encounter any accidents.Now, seeing that he came back safely, he was so happy that he raised his head slightly and looked into the carriage, only hoping to see the person he was thinking of.

Xiao Luobei only took a glance, and saw Tao Yu's excited look, and felt bored for a while, squeezed Mu Wanzhou's hand beside him, and whispered in his ear:

"Your son, came here to pick you up."

Mu Wanzhou was stunned, glanced at him and said with a smile, "Your Majesty is so jealous?"

Xiao Luobei hesitated, sneered and said: "Is he worthy? I was just thinking, in the court, I have to sing a bad face to the left minister to frighten me. But you might as well go to Tao Yu and make a side attack. I will give him some advice on what the left minister thinks."

Mu Wanzhou thought for a while: "The Holy Majesty's words are justified, the minister will ask him to meet another day."

While talking, his eyes moved to Tao Yu's face outside the car, met his eyes, and smiled faintly.Tao Yu didn't expect Mu Wanzhou to focus on himself, and was so happy for a while that he didn't know what to do, so he quickly forced out an unnatural smile in response.

Although it is unnatural, it is sincere and unreserved.

·

After Xiao Luo returned to the North, he rewarded all the ministers who made contributions in the Western Regions War, and also rewarded the officials who stayed behind in the capital as a celebration.He sat under the high dragon chair, his eyes swept down sharply, and they were precisely fixed on Tao Zhen's face.

"Master Zuo Xiang stays in the capital," Xiao Luobei said sharply, "I have done my best to take care of everything, and I have contributed so much that I can focus on killing the traitors without distraction. I think I should reward you heavily."

Tao Zhen turned pale, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, this is the duty of an old minister."

Xiao Luobei waved his hands coldly and said: "Don't give in to the left. The emperor's uncle is raising private soldiers in the Western Regions and intends to plot against him. There must be someone behind him to help. I still have to rely on Mr. Zuoxiang to find out this matter! I must find out the emperor's uncle His fellow party members will be severely punished and will never be tolerated!"

Tao Zhen's lips trembled, his body swayed slightly, and he almost passed out.

Xiao Luobei's snake-like gaze seemed to poke a hole in his body: "Why doesn't Prime Minister Zuo answer?"

Tao Zhen forced his composure, and replied in a low voice: "The old minister will definitely not disgrace the holy order..."

"Well," Xiao Luobei nodded in satisfaction, "I will ask Mr. Mu to assist Prime Minister Zuo in this matter, Prime Minister Zuo has no objection?"

Tao Zhen's legs softened, and he knelt down with a plop: "Old minister... dare not..."

Mu Wanzhou on the side looked sideways and smiled brightly at Tao Zhenming: "Master Zuo, Wanzhou will definitely do her best to help."

Tao Zhen was sweating profusely and was speechless, but Tao Yu, who lined up in the back row, was elated.He didn't know what his father was doing, he just felt that in this way, he could see Mu Wanzhou more, and his whole heart was like a restless little rabbit, jumping around non-stop .

After several hours of discussion, Mu Wanzhou was thinking about how to proceed to the next step, and returned to Chengye Hall absent-mindedly, but saw a person standing in front of the window, carefully picking the edge of the latticed paper window with the tip of a sword, It was Lu Zhuchuan who hadn't seen him for many days.

"Zhuchuan," seeing him, Mu Wanzhou couldn't help but feel a little brighter, "What are you doing?"

Lu Zhuchuan didn't turn his head back: "The latch of your window is broken, let me fix it."

"Let the palace people do it," Mu Wanzhou stepped forward to persuade, "You don't need to do it yourself."

Lu Zhuchuan frowned and shook his head: "I installed a mechanism so that if someone wants to open the window to attack at night, he will be injured by a hidden arrow."

"..." Mu Wanzhou was speechless for a while, feeling an inexplicable feeling in her heart.In the past, when he didn't know Lu Zhuchuan's intentions, he only thought it was the care of a family member, but now, he has inadvertently caught a glimpse of the other party's affection, and when he looks back on the details of the past, he only feels the countless bits and pieces of the past. , are all Lu Zhuchuan's most subtle and sincere expressions.

For example, he gives flowers for the New Year that never falls once a year.

For example, his occasional sarcasm that conceals concern.

For example, in order to save himself, he left thousands of troops and went deep into the loess.

……

Too many, too many to count.

Mu Wanzhou's heart was turning a thousand times, only to hear Lu Zhuchuan said lightly:

"I've already inquired about Tao Zhen. After Xiao Yi's defeat, he didn't do anything special. He just renovated the prime minister's mansion up and down in the name of the New Year. But, you should understand that this What does that mean?"

"Yeah." Mu Wanzhou nodded.Tao Zhen must have cleaned up the secret passage between the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Lin'an Prince's Mansion, and it is estimated that those letters and evidence have also been destroyed.

However, even if the letters were destroyed and the workshops for making private weapons were also removed, as long as Mu Wanzhou wanted to investigate, he would always find some clues.

"One more thing," Lu Zhuchuan pressed the tip of his sword slightly, and inserted the small hidden arrow mechanism into the window latch accurately, "He didn't know where he learned that his son Tao Yu was closely related to you, and not only did he not punish you , but encourage Tao Yu to keep in touch with you more."

"Heh..." Mu Wanzhou couldn't help laughing, "It seems that he knows that he is to blame, and wants to get close to me, so that when the Dong Chuang incident happens, there will be someone to rely on."

Lu Zhuchuan nodded: "Even if it's a drop in the bucket, he has no better choice now."

Mu Wanzhou thought for a moment: "If that's the case, how can I take good care of him? Zhuchuan, tomorrow you will lead the Yulin army to search the Lin'an Palace."

"clear."

Mu Wanzhou paused for a moment, and then said: "As for the secret passage in the palace's study..."

"I know how to deal with it, don't worry." Lu Zhuchuan interrupted him lightly.

Mu Wanzhou knew that he knew her own thoughts best, so she stopped talking.

"Okay." Lu Zhuchuan put down the latticed paper window and locked it, "Look, opening and closing the window from the inside will not trigger the mechanism. But if someone tries to force the window open from the outside, he will be stabbed in the back."

Mu Wanzhou looked at it carefully, and smiled with her lips pursed: "Zhuchuan, you are still so dexterous. I remember when I was in the Western Regions, you also helped me install such traps on the windows and doors. Those villains with ulterior motives ended up being him..."

In the middle of his speech, he suddenly stopped speaking as if he had said something that shouldn't be said.

Lu Zhuchuan's eyes were a little turbulent, and he only said "um", and his eyes were stained sadly.

The late fourth prince Xiao Chenying is now like a taboo between the two.In the past, Mu Wanzhou might have mentioned one or two intentionally or unintentionally, but now, he knows that every word he says is poking at Lu Zhuchuan's heart.

The two were speechless for a while, and the atmosphere was a little awkward and low.At this time, a black shadow quietly fell into the courtyard, and the vigorous figure knelt down on one knee in front of Mu Wanzhou, "Lord Mu."

It was Sun Jian, as sharp as ever, with a steady light in his thin triangular eyes.

"What's the matter?" Mu Wanzhou turned her head and asked, secretly glad that his timely appearance eased the atmosphere a little.

"Your letter was sent by Mr. Tao entrusted by his subordinates." Sun Jian respectfully handed over a letter paper exuding a faint sandalwood fragrance.

Mu Wanzhou took it and opened it for a while, only to see that the letter read:

"Wanzhou sees the letter as if we have met. Ever since you went to the Western Regions, there have been many difficulties and dangers. I am very worried. Now that you have returned safely, I am happy to congratulate you. I wonder if we can get together tonight? I am thinking hard about the three-autumn wine in Linglong Pavilion, and I don't know you Do you agree with me? Ziqi."

Mu Wanzhou laughed dumbfounded: "Young Master Tao's invitation came quickly."

Lu Zhuchuan commented lukewarmly: "I want to see you tonight? It seems that I have a deep love for you."

Mu Wanzhou thought for a while: "I won't see him until the palace is searched."

As he said that, he went into the room and wrote a reply, asked Tao Yu to meet him in Linglong Pavilion three days later, handed it to Sun Jian, and said to Sun Jian:

"Sun Jian, after you finish delivering the letter, order the hidden guards to investigate to find out what secret Zuo Xiang had in the past."

Although Sun Jian didn't understand his arrangements, he never questioned his orders, and retreated quickly after receiving his orders.

Just as Sun Jian left, Xiao Luobei's slightly angry voice came from the door:

"He can't wait to see you so soon?!"

Mu Wanzhou got up to greet her: "Your Majesty..."

When Lu Zhuchuan saw Xiao Luobei approaching, his face was as calm as water, and he stepped aside.

Xiao Luobei went straight forward, squeezed Mu Wanzhou's chin with jealousy and kissed her.Mu Wanzhou was pressed down by him, and retreated steadily, until she retreated to the bookshelf behind.In a panic, he grabbed with his backhand, but he didn't grab anything. Instead, he knocked the books off the shelf and smashed them to the ground.

"Hmm..." Although Mu Wanzhou wanted to restrain himself in front of Lu Zhuchuan, the influence of the Gu worms had not been completely eliminated, and his face was still blushing and trembling slightly because of his provocation.Xiao Luobei pinched his wrist again, and held him firmly until he had tasted enough, then remembered that there was someone else beside him, and finally controlled himself to stop.

Looking back, Lu Zhuchuan was no longer in the room.

"Huh?" Xiao Luobei was a little confused, "Where is Zhuchuan? Isn't he still there just now?"

Mu Wanzhou panted slightly: "He... is going to prepare for the inspection of the Lin'an Palace tomorrow."

"Yeah." Xiao Luobei didn't delve into it, but in the past, as long as the intimacy between him and Mu Wanzhou was not about the bed, Lu Zhuchuan would basically not avoid it.But today he actually backed away silently, which surprised Xiao Luobei for a moment.

Xiao Luobei thought it was just a coincidence, and didn't pay much attention, nor did he catch a trace of helplessness in Mu Wanzhou's eyes.

"You and Tao Yu will see you in three days? Huh?!" He still couldn't hold back his jealousy.In recent days, he has become more and more concerned about Mu Wanzhou's relationship with other people, even beyond his own expectations.Just now, when he bumped into Sun Jian outside the door and knew about the three-day agreement, the jealous jar in his heart was overturned.

"Well," Mu Wanzhou held his face with a light smile, "tomorrow when the palace will be inspected, the left minister will definitely be restless. I will make some indirect remarks later, and I believe that Mr. Tao is not a stupid person, and he will definitely be able to tell his father and lord. .”

Xiao Luobei stared at him lazily: "Do you know that you are going to search the imperial uncle's palace on this side, but Li Detian has already taken action on the other side?"

"Oh?"

"He has already asked me to investigate the location of the weapons where the emperor's uncle privately forged weapons. I think he wants to drag Tao Zhen into the water in a hurry."

Mu Wanzhou focused her eyes and said word by word: "He thinks beautifully."

Xiao Luobei seldom saw his tone like this, but he was amused by his resolute and indignant look, couldn't help pinching his face and said:

"Wan Zhou, you... are so cute..."

But Mu Wanzhou gently grabbed his collar very seriously: "How does the sage plan to deal with it? I immediately ask Zhu Chuan to stop the factory owner, otherwise, if he is asked to obtain some evidence first, the left prime minister is afraid..."

Xiao Luobei smiled nonchalantly: "Don't worry, he will never find anything, instead he will fall into my palm."

"?" Mu Wanzhou looked puzzled, but Xiao Luobei didn't intend to continue talking.He picked up Mu Wanzhou by the waist and walked to the depths of Chengye Hall.

"Your Majesty..." Mu Wanzhou blushed instantly, "I'm afraid it's not very good to be promiscuous in the daytime..."

"So what?" Xiao Luobei whispered close to his ear and sighed, "Or are you playing hard to get?"

Mu Wanzhou smiled, hooked his neck and said, "Well, yes, Ah Bei, you guessed it right. Since you entered the door, I have..."

He leaned close to Xiao Luobei's ear and whispered something, after Xiao Luobei listened, his ears turned red and his Adam's apple rolled.

"You bastard..." He could only feel the scorching heat spreading from the base of his ears, dyed his cheeks, and spread all over his body.

It's not that Mu Wanzhou didn't say unrestrained things before, but when he was regarded as Feng Yuehua's substitute, it sounded like a completely different feeling and mood from now.Where did this different heartbeat, passion and excitement come from?

Xiao Luobei couldn't tell what the change was, he only knew that he was dizzy when he heard those words, his heart was beating like a drum, and he couldn't control himself at all.

He gritted his teeth and pressed Mu Wanzhou, who was also blushing, onto the couch.

·

The next day, Lu Zhuchuan led the Yulin Army to search the Lin'an Palace, found numerous evidences of Lin'an embezzling official money, and confiscated them all. He even took back the tokens of hundreds of armored soldiers in the capital and the palace and returned them to the emperor.As for other large and small bribes, they are also recorded together, and the officials involved in the DPRK and China will be investigated in detail afterwards.

In the evening, Mu Wanzhou and Zuo Xiang Tao Zhen visited Lin'an Prince's Mansion in person to check and accept the inspection results.Tao Zhen watched nervously as boxes of evidence were transported out of the palace, fidgeting like ants on a hot pot, but since Mu Wanzhou was by the side, he could only force himself to remain calm.

Mu Wanzhou glanced at his white and trembling fingers, and asked with concern:

"Master Zuo Xiang is unwell?"

"Old minister...no problem..." Tao Zhen raised his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his forehead tremblingly, "It's just that the weather is a bit stuffy..."

"It's stuffy?" Mu Wanzhou supported him very considerately, and looked at the sky, "It's not spring yet, how can Mr. Zuo feel stuffy? It must be a cold. Do you want Wanzhou to call Zhuchuan to come?" Do you see?"

Although Lu Zhuchuan didn't know much about medicine, he had profound internal skills, so it would be no problem to take a rough pulse check.

"No need, thank you, Master Mu..." Tao Zhen didn't have the heart to see a doctor, "Searching the Lin'an Palace is an important task entrusted to the old minister by the Holy Majesty, and the old minister is just worried about insulting the holy order..."

Mu Wanzhou's dark and deep eyes stared straight at him: "Your Excellency Zuo, don't worry. Your Excellency is the pillar of the imperial court. You should be more confident."

"Yes, yes..." Tao Zhen stammered, staring nervously at the Habayashi army coming in and out, restless.

In the end, Lu Zhuchuan came out of the mansion in person, met Mu Wanzhou and Tao Zhen, stepped forward coldly, and without saluting, he opened his mouth and said loudly:

"Master Mu, all the physical evidence that was confiscated is here."

Mu Wanzhou nodded slightly: "Are there any other suspicious discoveries?"

Lu Zhuchuan replied decisively: "No."

Mu Wanzhou clearly felt that the matter of the secret way hadn't been discovered, and Tao Zhen's body softened and he relaxed.

"Well," he nodded in satisfaction, turned his head and smiled at Tao Zhen, "Lord Zuo Xiang, I have tried my best today, and I can explain to the Holy Majesty."

"Yes." Tao Zhen's footsteps were floating, and he was almost unable to stand still. Seeing him smiling like a spring flower, he finally calmed down a bit.

Mu Wanzhou enthusiastically supported him who was weak, and they drove back together, caring about his physical condition several times on the way.Tao Zhen had already relaxed, but he was embarrassed to be asked.When approaching the prime minister's mansion, Mu Wanzhou bowed her hands to Tao Zhen and smiled:

"Lord Zuoxiang, Wanzhou will sort out the materials found in the Lin'an palace before showing it to him. What do you think?"

"Of course the veteran has no objection," Tao Zhen replied, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Mu."

He saw that Mu Wanzhou respected him, without the slightest domineering like the emperor's favorite minister, so he couldn't help feeling fond of him.Thinking about my current situation, I want to make more friends with him.

I can only regret that I was conservative in the past, and I can't see the estrangement between him and the emperor.

As if reading through his mind, Mu Wanzhou said softly again: "King Lin'an's rebellion this time is no small matter, and His Majesty attaches great importance to it. From now on, everything in the court will depend on Lord Zuoxiang, and Wanzhou will have to work hard for you, Lord." gone."

"Don't dare..." Tao Zhen murmured before uttering the word, the carriage had already stopped slowly.Mu Wanzhou lifted the car curtain and took a look:

"My lord, the prime minister's residence has arrived."

"Thank you, Mr. Mu, for seeing him off." Tao Zhen said goodbye to Mu Wanzhou, and got out of the car a little uneasy.

Tao Yu was already waiting at the door. Seeing his father's return, he hurriedly greeted him, "Father."

A pair of watery eyes couldn't help but just looked at the carriage parked aside.

Mu Wanzhou lifted the curtain and smiled at Tao Yu: "Young Master Tao."

"Master...Master Mu, thank you, thank you for sending my father off." Tao Yu caught a glimpse of his voice and smile, and felt that his eyes were bright, and he almost lost his words and shouted the wrong thing.

Mu Wanzhou nodded slightly, her clear eyes seemed to say, "See you sometime."

His eyes were gentle, and the little ripples in them, like the most brilliant sparks in the night sky, scattered on Tao Yu's heart finely and densely.
