The king's apex spoils him and is reborn

The sun hangs in the sky, and the scorching sun is mostly covered by dense branches and leaves. Weeds grow wildly under the towering green trees, and an octagonal gazebo sits beside it.

An ice basin is placed on the limestone bricks in the pavilion, and three petite children are playing in a circle.Suddenly, a familiar voice came from not far away, and the children were in a mess.They tried to carry the ice basin but failed, so they rushed out to block people, leaving only the youngest among them who hastily pulled the gauze curtain to cover it.

"What are you hiding, you've already seen it." Ji Muqing has sharp eyes and saw it from a distance.However, he is in a good mood now, and he doesn't care too much, he just said indifferently: "Summer is not here yet, you guys are enjoying it."

Among them, Mo Yan, who was the oldest, saluted solemnly: "The Taifu sent someone to move here, and the slaves dare not refuse."

Hearing this, Ji Muqing raised his eyebrows slightly, slowly sat down on the stone bench in the pavilion, and said in a cool tone: "I haven't seen you for a day, dare to speak?"

After all, Mo Yan came out of the palace. Although he was intimidated by Ji Muqing's power at first, after being brought to Ji's mansion, he always remembered that he came from Qinghui Palace, so he had full confidence to be neither humble nor overbearing.

However, he has been working in the palace since he was a child, and he has long been used to pretending to be weak in an unfamiliar environment. When he realizes that the people around him are not malicious, he will show a little childishness.In this respect, he is quite similar to Rong Yunfei, but he is obviously more sophisticated and tactful, knowing how to measure.

Sure enough, after seeing Ji Muqing sit down, he bent his waist even lower, "The servants are assigned by His Royal Highness, and will definitely listen to your arrangements carefully."

Ji Muqing didn't want to criticize anything at all, so he waved his hand to express his disrespect.Afterwards, seeing that Rong Yunfei had been hiding behind Ah Ye, he first asked Mo Yan in a low voice: "How is the painting that I ordered you to do yesterday?"

Mo Yan understood, opened a wooden box on the stone table, and took out a painting.With his eyes, he motioned to Ah Ye who was beside him to help open it, "This servant girl has finished a picture, please look at it, General."

Ji Muqing took a close look at it for a long time, and saw that the imitation painting did have the flavor of the Chijin Kingdom, so he nodded in satisfaction, "Perfect, as expected of a master of painting."

"Thank you General for your compliment." Mo Yan said.

"I will trouble you to draw a few more pictures in the next few days. You can stay at ease and tell General Ben what you need."

After hearing this, Mo Yan hesitated a little, and asked tentatively, "Did Your Highness ask the servants to go back?"

Ji Muqing was slightly taken aback, but the little eunuch still disliked that the food in Ji's mansion was not as good as in the palace.He straightened his back and said: "It's enough for your master to have this general, and if he hurried to find him to block this general, I'm afraid he has forgotten you long ago."

"Then, general, can you still run back?" Mo Yan lowered the corner of his mouth in disbelief.

"You don't understand, it's love." Ji Muqing smiled, "It's only interesting if you really run away."

When Ji Muqing first left the Changhua Hall, he saw Xiao Beichen was already waiting on the railing of the high platform, and the other party quickly saw him.When the two people's eyes met, you came and I went back and forth with a lot of meaning. In the end, seeing Xiao Beichen was completely uncompromising, Ji Muqing had no choice but to find another way.

He turned his head to the eunuch seeing off the guests and asked, "Dare to ask Eunuch, does this hall have a back door?"

"Yes, there are, but Your Majesty is still inside."

"Go back and have a look." Ji Muqing didn't mind telling the truth to Xiao Tianze, but this time it seemed that God was going to help, as soon as he returned to the main hall, he saw Xiao Tianze lying on the table and dozing off.

Afterwards, he frowned slightly, and asked Xue Tao who hurried up to him, "Your Majesty, have you been so tired recently?"

"Your Majesty lost sleep yesterday." Xue Tao lowered his voice, and realized something was wrong after answering, "Why did you come back?"

"Shhh—" Ji Muqing motioned for silence with her fingers, blinked and mouthed, "The back door."

Xue Tao was experienced, although he didn't know the specific reason why Ji Muqing couldn't walk through the main entrance, but in the end he lured him away as a matter of expediency, lest Xiao Tianze suddenly wake up and everyone present would be punished.

In this way, Ji Muqing rushed to the gate of the palace quickly, and Duan Yan, who was waiting for him, joined him and left the palace together.

"It's just that I couldn't witness His Highness's expression when he found out." Ji Muqing thought to himself.He came back calmly all the way, but now he can't hide the ecstasy in his heart.

When the people around him lost their eyesight, he came back to his senses and coughed lightly twice.Afterwards, he raised his hand and stroked his chin, seeing that Rong Yunfei hadn't come forward to greet him, he called softly first: "Rong'er, come here."

Rong Yunfei clasped his hands in front of him, seeing that the others were helpless, so he stepped forward tremblingly.

From pretending to cry to being prickly at the beginning, and now deliberately hiding from others, this child has grown more and more inferior.Although Ji Muqing was very strict, she never beat or scolded her.Thinking of this, Ji Muqing secretly sighed: After all, it is different from the previous life.

"It seems to have grown taller." He lightly stroked Rong Yunfei's forehead hair, and then gently touched his head.He was looking up and down for any changes in the child, and suddenly fixed his eyes on his collar, like a corner of a piece of paper. "You stuffed something in your pocket?" he asked.

Rong Yunfei gradually calmed down the tension.Hearing this, he paused for a moment, then lowered his head and held the thing to Ji Muqing, "It's the little eunuch Mo painted for my mother."

Ji Muqing was taken aback for a moment, but finally answered calmly: "Do you still remember your mother?"

"Well, Little Eunuch Mo is amazing. Rong'er described it, and he drew it." Rong Yunfei was completely relaxed when he mentioned the familiar person.He was expecting the compliment, but he only watched Ji Muqing's pupils constrict the moment he opened the drawing paper.

"This is your mother?"

His heart skipped a beat, feeling a little lost, but he still tried his best to persuade him: "My mother looks a bit dusty, but she is just a luthier, and she has taught young ladies from wealthy families before."

"I know." Ji Muqing could only murmur unconsciously.

The person on the small portrait clearly does not look like the late Empress Dowager, with a face like a lotus, flesh like creamy fat, and cold and pretty eyes, without the gentle temperament of a Jiangnan lady at all, and even worse than Lu Lanzhao's resemblance to the Empress Dowager.

The things that were originally clear in his mind suddenly became chaotic. Although some inferences, such as Xue Tao's intention to beautify this evil relationship, could explain all this, Ji Muqing always felt that the truth was still deeper.

In a daze, he heard Rong Yunfei's call again.In order not to arouse suspicion, he calmed down and deliberately joked: "I just think... why didn't you inherit your mother's beauty."

"..." As soon as the bad words came out, the faces of the people around had different colors.Rong Yunfei snatched the statue away as if he had been greatly wronged, wanting to cry but not crying.

Ji Muqing laughed softly for a while, then patted him on the shoulder calmly, and said, "You guys continue to enjoy the shade. Duan Yan, follow me to the study."

***

Whether you are busy or not, the days go by quickly.Regarding the matter of doing business with the Chijin Kingdom, Ji Muqing traveled to various ministries every day, and did not leak any face.At the same time, news of Moyanguan kept coming.Finally, after ten days of summer, General Zhao Ke escorted the envoys to visit the capital.

"As expected of a royal capital, the changes are really great." Zhao Ke rode a horse and galloped slowly. When he approached the city gate, he saw people lined up in two rows, and they all waved enthusiastically.Seeing this, he couldn't help sighing: "People are getting more and more handsome, even children are beautiful."

After hearing this, Xie Zhuo, the deputy general at the back, worried and said: "Although brothers have not returned to the capital for a long time, it is inevitable to be touched by the scene. But you are a general after all, so you will be careful in the future, so as not to make people laugh."

Zhao Ke didn't care about Duan's airs, and said confidently: "It will be Lingjing to welcome the old man. We haven't seen each other for a long time, and I feel even more emotional."

Xie Zhuo felt ashamed, and was about to persuade him again, when Zhao Ke snorted and pouted, "Mother, mother."At the right time, the brigade happened to be at the door.

"Welcome to General Zhao." Ji Muqing waited outside the door in a purple official uniform, and when he saw someone arriving, he stood solemnly in place and saluted.

Zhao Ke dismounted immediately, and after clenching his fists awkwardly, he led the people back.

The accompanying soldiers surrounded two carriages from other countries.The person in the car in front had already lifted the curtain and came out, it was a grinning face.

Seeing Ji Muqing approaching in a majestic manner, the man guessed the identity of the other party immediately.He hurriedly got off the carriage, put his right hand on his heart, bowed his head and said, "General Ji, he has been famous for a long time."

This man speaks fluently.Ji Muqing raised his eyebrows slightly, and turned his head to listen to Zhao Ke's introduction: "This is the envoy sent by Chijin, named Yale. The name is not bad, and he looks like..."

Ji Muqing suppressed a smile.The old man who was about to run five now seemed to have a lot of joy in his mind.In the past few months, the two exchanged letters, and Zhao Ke also lamented that after the guards left, those rough men under him were really not pleasing to the eye.

After listening to the words, Ji Muqing turned his head and saluted the others: "The envoy has been exhausted all the way, please go to the Sifang Pavilion for a rest first. The monarch will summon you, and then we will go to the banquet together." After speaking, he didn't wait Many people asked for details, and they turned sideways to the carriage behind.

"General Ji!" Yale panicked when he saw this, and quickly followed up to explain: "This is the holy son specially offered by our country, and you must not show your face when you see the king."

"Holy Son?" Ji Muqing could probably guess who was coming, but just wanted to confirm.But now hearing what the envoy said, he suddenly felt ignorant karma, "Who is it for?"

He was smiling, but the cold light in his eyes could already make people shudder.

Zhao Ke beside him also just found out about this.He twirled his beard, and his wooden head had a rare flash of inspiration.The Chijin Kingdom has always sent princesses for marriage, but today they sent their holy son... a man!He hastily motioned to the left and right to pull the envoy back before the world turned pale, but he still couldn't speak faster than Yale:

"It is dedicated to the prince of your country."

Ji Muqing: "..."

……

The atmosphere continued to stagnate.The envoy had already been carried back to the carriage, but Zhao Ke could still see that Ji Muqing's sleeves were about to tear apart.After another half hour, Ji Muqing smiled with him to show that it was all right, then turned to the carriage beside him, and nodded to the people inside through a crack in the curtain.

"Holy Son, right?" Ji Muqing said deeply, "I wish you the best of luck."
