Let's follow the king, little master

On the Yushui Ferry in Kyoto, countless ships gathered here, there were constant sounds of delivery and unloading, and passenger ships kept saying place names.

When Li Mu walked to the pier, he heard a voice shouting "Congxian, Congxian, go to Congxian." and hurried over.

"Boatman, are you going to Cong County?" Li Mu asked.

"Yes, yes, go to Congxian." The boatman continued to shout, "Go to Congxian, Congxian." Seeing Li Mu standing there, he said, "Go to Congxia and get on the car, one tael of silver."

"Boatman, I don't have any money now, can I give it to you in Cong County." Li Mu pleaded.

"If you don't have money, why don't you go by boat, and go, wasting my time." After speaking, the boatman pushed Li Mu away, and continued to invite customers.

"The boatman." Li Mu walked up to the boatman again without giving up, "I will definitely give you the money when I get to Cong County. Just let me take the boat, okay?"

"You boy, I said you can't do it if you don't have money, so get out of here and delay my business." Said the boatman.

Li Mu wanted to give up when he heard this, but he didn't want to be hit by the people around him and accidentally touched the boatman, but he didn't want the boatman to get impatient, kicked Li Mu's body, and shouted:

"I tell you to get lost, do you hear me? I want to take advantage of such gorgeous clothes."

As soon as the words came out, everyone around stopped and looked at the two of them. Li Mu stood up in shame. Just as he got up, he bent down and patted his clothes. Seeing that Zhang Xia was about to punch him while cursing the boatman's clothes, Li Mu hurried forward to stop him.

"Don't hit him, I really don't have money to pay the boat fare." Li Mu stepped forward and said.

Zhang Xia pushed the boatman away, and the boatman ran away in fright, Zhang Xia turned to look at Li Mu with a smile and said:

"How are you in Kyoto?"

"Some things." Li Mu replied perfunctorily, then looked at Zhang Xia and said, "You are going to join the army, why are you here?"

"I participated in the Southern Expedition and became the head of the capital. Now I can be regarded as a small official. The army has arranged to return to my hometown one after another. I will see Zishu from my hometown in these two days." Zhang Xia said with a smile , I couldn't hold back the smile on my face.

"I think a lot of interesting things happened in Nanzheng." Li Mu looked at Zhang Xia with a smile, and the pain in his heart lessened by him.

"Of course, where are you planning to go? If you want to go back to your hometown, we can take the same boat. There are all my robes and companions on the boat." Zhang Xia said.

"It couldn't be better." Li Mu nodded hastily.

So Li Mu boarded Zhang Xia's boat back to his hometown like this, and just after the boat got out, he suddenly heard four bells ringing from all around, and then all the people on the shore bowed to the west.The person wearing it did not know who said "The emperor is dead", so everyone knelt down to the west, only Li Mu was stunned, and Zhang Xia grabbed the hem of his clothes, and then realized that he also knelt on the ground, thinking in his heart It was Yu Che.

There were bursts of crying in the palace where music, dancing and gold and silver were usually played, and the ministers were all dressed in sackcloth and filial piety, but the first thing the emperor had to do besides dealing with the funeral was the question of who would inherit the throne.

After the emperor passed away, Yu Che called Prime Minister Cheng Fang, and the two met in Yu Che's mother's palace, the main hall of Anle Palace.

"Master Cheng may not know why I came to you." Yu Che said.

"Your Highness, now that the emperor passed away, His Royal Highness will take the throne, and the ministers are just waiting for His Highness to come out and read the will." Cheng Fang thought that Yu Che was in a hurry to ascend the throne, so he said.

"I just want to tell Mr. Cheng about this matter. The emperor only summoned the two of us when his father passed away. Only the two of us know my name written in this edict, so I want to ask Mr. Cheng one thing."

"Please speak, Your Highness."

"Change Muziche in the edict to Muziqi." After Yu Che finished speaking, he looked at Cheng Fang.

"Your Highness." Cheng Fang exclaimed after hearing this, "What is your Highness doing? It is the emperor's last wish to let His Highness ascend the throne. How can it be changed?"

"If Mr. Cheng announces that I will inherit the throne, I am afraid that there will still be disputes in the harem, so now Mr. Cheng has two choices. One is to let the fourth prince Mu Zihui inherit the throne, and the other is to let the fifth prince Mu Ziqi inherit the throne." Inherit the throne. Master Cheng thinks that is good?"

"Your Highness, I want to know, is it possible that Your Highness will abandon this great country? Then why does Your Highness go to the palace to participate in these battles?"

"Master Cheng doesn't need to ask any more questions. I am the reason. Let Master Cheng answer the question."

"Your Highness, Your Highness sees it clearly. Although the fourth prince is kind-hearted, he is cowardly and incompetent and unable to inherit the throne. Although the fifth prince is still young, he must have a certain ability to survive in the palace without his mother, concubine and sister. Yes. Is it just that His Highness really intends not to inherit the throne?"

"I have made up my mind. Today's conversation must not be leaked out, and the will must be kept a secret. As for the general who has been beheaded now, I will recommend someone to Mr. Cheng, and he will bring my letter to you. I also hope Master Cheng will help the little emperor well." Yu Che said with a smile.

"Yes, Your Highness." After Cheng Fang finished speaking, he knelt on the ground and watched Yu Che leave.

Speaking of the fate between Yu Che and the fifth prince is also very deep, but the basis of this fate is because of the appearance of the fifth prince Mu Ziqi, Mu Ziqi's eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Li Mu.So ever since Yu Che met the fifth prince once in the palace, he stopped for a while every time he saw him. Qi is very smart and kind.

One day he was playing with a kite in the palace, and the eunuch behind him followed him but stared at the kite from time to time, but he didn't want Mu Ziqi to bump into the queen by accident. This is good, Mu Ziqi The eunuch behind Qi quickly knelt down and apologized verbally, but he didn't want the queen to be reluctant.

"You slave, don't look at the master and really start playing by yourself. Your master is so impolite after learning from you slaves. Now you still hold that toy and don't let go." Although the queen said, the eunuch really looked at Mu. Ziqi.

Mu Ziqi did not rush, and said:

"Mother." Mu Ziqi suddenly knelt on the ground and said with a frustrated face, "It's all my fault. Brother Sanhuang gave me this kite when he saw that I was bored, because I like it very much. Every time there is wind, I want to take it." When I came out, I was very happy every time I thought it was a gift from Brother Sanhuang, thinking that Brother Sanhuang would give it to me only because he wanted me to be happy, but I ran into my mother for fun, and hoped that she would punish me."

When the queen heard that she was still angry, she coughed lightly and her voice softened:

"Be careful in the future." After speaking, he left with a group of court ladies and eunuchs.

Seeing that the queen was gone, Mu Ziqi stood up and handed the kite to the eunuch and left with her mouth pouted.Yu Che, who was standing aside, watched this scene with a smile.

It's just that Yu Che didn't know that although his decision made Mu Ziqi a success, it also caused him a lot of pain.

This palace, which has experienced wind and rain and changed countless people's residences, seems to never remember anyone, and the coldness is shocking.The crying in the palace was loud, but how many of the crying were sincerely sad for the emperor's death, most of them were because of his lost status, or because he was forced to be helpless.

Yu Che walked out of the hall, not wanting to hear this voice again, but when he came out, he saw Xiao Ba appearing in the air and screaming.Yu Che looked up at it with a frown.That little Ba flew to Yu Che's shoulder, and there really wasn't any letter.Yu Che suddenly felt that something was wrong, he didn't care about anything else, he jumped on the wall, flew over several city walls and left the palace, then a whistle summoned the horses and drove towards the mansion.

It was late at night, and the mansion was still brightly lit, but there was a panic inside, so Yu Che directly drove his horse to open the door.Then the butler saw Yu Che and hurriedly knelt down, and the servants beside him also knelt down one after another.

"Master." The butler said, "It's the villain's fault. The villain didn't take good care of the young master."

Yu Che didn't say anything, he got off his horse and walked into Li Mu's room, looking at the empty bed.Yu Che walked out of the room, and a shadow guard appeared in front of him.

"What's going on." Yu Che said expressionlessly.

"The young master went to see a woman, and there seemed to be a quarrel, and then three people appeared who wanted to kidnap him. Among them, the masked man fought with Qing Qi, but those two people had robbed the young master, but they didn't see the young master. The young master came back and took the girl away. The masked person asked the two of them, and the two replied that they hadn't caught up. At this moment, Qing Qi unbuttoned the person's mask, and it was Zhang Hai. Someone caught him." The shadow guard finished speaking and looked at Yu Che, "We have already sent people to track down the whereabouts of the young master. Someone once saw the eagle appearing at the Yushui Ferry. We checked the passenger ships around, but there was no one Find out which passenger ship the young master took."

"Send a letter to people from the village. He will definitely go home or go to the temple in these two days." After Yu Che finished speaking, he was about to leave the mansion, but he didn't want Bai Yuzhen to enter the mansion and stop him.

"Zi Che, where are you going?" Bai Yuzhen asked.

"I'm going to Cong County."

"Zi Che, now that the emperor has passed away, the crown prince committed suicide, and the second prince left, you are the only one who inherits the throne. What are you going to do?"

"I'll go find him. I've already made arrangements for the capital. Someone will make arrangements for you and Guan Zhihuan." Yu Che said as he walked forward.

"Don't you understand?" Bai Yuzhen suddenly shouted.

"Understand what?" Yu Che turned around and frowned at him.

"You already understand that he left voluntarily." Bai Yuzhen said.

This is correct, after seeing Xiao Ba, Yu Che knew that Li Mu was not in danger, because when he was in danger, Xiao Ba would be by his side, and Xiao Ba came just to tell him that Li Mu was gone.

"It seems that you met him before he left." Yu Che suddenly looked at Bai Yuzhen indifferently.

"Yes." Bai Yuzhen said, "He told me that he didn't want you to give up the throne for him and be cast aside by the world. So don't you understand? He wants you to become emperor." Bai Yuzhen looked at him.

"Then I want to ask you, don't you understand?" Yu Che asked back, "I want to give up the throne for him. Besides, to me, the throne is nothing compared to him. It’s not as comfortable as wandering around the world with him.” Yu Che sneered and left the mansion.

On the other side, Li Mu, who didn't know anything, was sitting in the boat floating on the water. The group of Zhang Xia beside him was already snoring, but Li Mu couldn't sleep with his eyes wide open, his mind was full of memories of the past. Everything, in his heart, he already felt that he would never see Yu Che again in this life, and that he was probably the best person in the world to him, who only treated him wholeheartedly.

Then fate and fate are things that you can't imagine, not to mention there are people who would rather give up everything to pursue fate with the one they love, naturally all kinds of entanglements and disputes will unfold again.
