"That's what I said, but it may not be a deadlock - Your Highness doesn't need to take this matter too seriously, we just need to discuss it in the long run."

Mu Qiu shook his head with a slight smile, then said something warmly, then suddenly stopped talking, and looked towards the door.

"Brother Mu, are you feeling better?"

The Xiongnu boy peeped in from the door, his expression became a bit shy, and he pursed his lips before saying, "I'm here to deliver breakfast, and I want to stop by to see Brother Mu...I always feel that I'm sorry, my lord, if I hadn't helped Big Brother Mu at that time, this wouldn't have happened."

"Su Tuhe? It's cold outside, come in first, don't stick around outside."

Listening to him saying "Brother Mu", Song Zichen, who still called him little uncle according to his seniority, felt a little bit dumbfounded.He waved at him, and greeted him in: "Why did you get up so early, have you had breakfast yet?"

"It's been used, it's been used—the guard brother said to get up early to practice kung fu, and to practice three-nines in the summer and three days in the winter, so that he can practice good kung fu like Brother Mu."

Su Tuhe nodded quickly, put down the plate he was holding in his hand, and straightened up solemnly to answer.Song Zichen couldn't help laughing, shook his head helplessly, and patted him on the shoulder lightly: "Okay, you really have ambition. You, Mu—Brother Mu, he's fine, don't worry, just go and practice."

"really?"

Hearing that Big Brother Mu was ready to go, Su Tuhe's eyes suddenly brightened, and he looked expectantly at Mu Qiu beside him.But Mu Qiu also nodded with a smile, and patted him on the shoulder lightly: "Really, I just take this opportunity to lie down for two more days and take care of my body. It's actually not a problem."

Hearing his personal assurance, the Xiongnu boy finally showed a little relaxed smile in his eyes.Nodding vigorously, he stood up and gave Song Zichen a salute before turning his head and running out quickly.

"Come on, let's have a meal first, and we'll talk about it later if we have anything to do."

Song Zichen smiled and shook his head, carefully helped Mu Qiu up and sat at the table.Seeing the thin layer of sweat oozing from his forehead, he carefully wiped it off with a handkerchief, and there was a bit of helplessness in his eyes: "You, you always say you will take care of yourself, but in fact, you still try to be brave at every turn— —Obviously it’s already exhausting, why bother talking with Lao Peng for so long?”

"Although it's strenuous, it's not so weak that I can't do anything. It's nothing more than doing what I can while I can do something for His Highness."

Mu Qiu responded with a gentle smile, leaned against the table to rest for a while, and then took the initiative to pull his own bowl over: "Your Highness, you need to remember that today the Yunhui Hou Mansion will send someone to take away the son's nanny. I don’t know who it will be. I always have an inexplicable hunch that Marquis Yunhui might come to the door in person..."

"No way - no matter what, I'm just a little prince. I have no job, no power, no relatives, no reason. What's the matter with his old man coming to the door in person?"

Startled by his words, Song Zichen shook his head quickly, with a bit of embarrassment in his eyes: "Mu Qiu, I know you are not a person who shoots at nothing, since you have such a premonition, maybe it's true There will be such a thing. I really have no idea in my heart, you help me think about it, if he really came by himself, how should I deal with it?"

"I don't know how this premonition came about today-in fact, I don't know much about Yu Yunhui, and I don't know as much as His Highness. It's just that I always feel that the emperor's handwriting is too big this time. It is impossible for there to be no reaction, and His Highness is behind closed doors, which makes many people puzzled, even the Marquis Yunhui may not be able to hold his breath..."

Mu Qiu thought about it, then shook his head slightly, looked up at him, with a bit of speculation in his eyes: "Besides—when we brought Su Tuhe back, we never deliberately deceived others. Since That father-in-law already knew about it, the sixth prince also knew about it, I'm afraid that Marquis Yunhui probably already knew about it..."

"Oops—how did I forget about this?!"

Song Zichen's complexion couldn't help changing, he stood up abruptly, and looked at the innocent looking person in front of him dumbfoundingly: "Mu Qiu, you came up with a good idea--bringing him back, I don't know if it will be useful, but give me more tricks I have a little uncle, I have to admit it whether I want to..."

"Your Highness can't blame me for this matter. In fact, I might not be able to confirm Su Tuhe's identity at that time. I finally confirmed it after I came back."

Mu Qiu blinked innocently, shook his head with a light smile, lowered his head to grab a bite of rice, and picked up some food for him: "If Marquis Yunhui comes in person, His Highness will probably be scolded—— How should I put it, Your Highness just needs to agree, and try not to talk back..."

"I understand, the overall situation is the most important thing. Don't worry, as long as he doesn't say anything too extreme, I won't get angry."

Seeing that person finally took the initiative to eat, Song Zichen felt overjoyed in his heart, nodded his head happily, and responded without thinking.But Mu Qiu just couldn't help laughing, and shook his head helplessly: "No——I'm just worried that His Highness has been afraid of Lord Ling since childhood, and once he talks back, with Master Ling's behavior, he will definitely hit His hand. Your Highness arrives I dare not hide from time to time, and the one who suffers in the end is His Highness..."

"...Mu Qiu, I think you are probably making fun of me. But what makes me feel the most depressed is that I can't even answer half a sentence."

Song Zichen shook his head wanting to cry without tears, sighed heavily, and threw his head on his arms: "You are right, I really dare not fight back and hide, for my own sake, I still don't argue with him It's..."

Mu Qiu couldn't help but chuckled, rubbed his head comfortingly, and slowed down his voice, "Your Highness, bear with it, if you come back and get angry with me, it's okay."

"No - I won't lose my temper with you. I don't think it's enough to be with you all day long. How can I do such a waste of time?"

Song Zichen shook his head resolutely, and took a few more mouthfuls of rice, making his cheeks puff up.Mu Qiu blinked lightly, and couldn't help but smile a little more in his eyes, and raised his hand to poke his cheek lightly: "How old is your highness, and you still have such a childish temper - eat as good as you want, after a while If Marquis Yunhui really came, His Highness might not even think about having a good meal for a day."

"It can be counted as one time, you can teach me to eat well..."

Song Zichen replied vaguely, swallowed what was in his mouth, and took some food for him: "Mu Qiu, you should eat more too. I'll ask someone to close the door in a while, and say you're resting inside. Just deal with him alone, so that he won't pick on you again."

"Speaking of which, Marquis Ling seems to have really never found fault with me - except when we first met, he said that my writing was weak and not manly, and then he didn't say anything else. "

Mu Qiu couldn't help being slightly stunned, subconsciously put a mouthful of rice into his mouth and chewed slowly, his eyes showed some contemplation: "I didn't think about it carefully before, but now that I think about it, this matter is indeed a bit strange... Lord Ling and my father once had such a fierce confrontation, why didn't he feel sorry for me?"

"Because...you are likable?"

Song Zichen rubbed his head, asked a guessing question, then shook his head nonchalantly and said, "I don't think there's anything strange about this, you're smart, you can learn everything, you're humble and polite There are few elders who don’t like you—Yunhuihou has always been a meritocracy, Song Zixuan is so ambitious, I don’t believe he didn’t see it, but he still tolerates and indulges you again and again, isn’t it just to watch? Did you fall for his talent? I don't know how to say this... But I think he may also appreciate your father in his heart."

"Actually, he didn't intend to force my father to take Zuihongchen. At that time, my father took the poison for the emperor. It is said that Lord Ling was also furious. He even tried to detoxify my father, but he still failed in the end."

Mu Qiu replied slowly, with an inexplicable complex look in his eyes.Song Zichen didn't know what was going on in his heart, and thought he was worried that the antidote was too hard to get, but his eyes couldn't help but darken, and he held the man's wrist again, looked at him solemnly and said, "Mu Qiu , you believe me - no matter how difficult it is to make it, I must gather the antidote..."

"I believe in Your Highness, I have always believed in it."

Mu Qiu couldn't help being slightly startled, then nodded with a smile, and patted his arm lightly: "I wasn't thinking about this just now—I was thinking about the relationship between Marquis Yunhui and my father. Does it matter? Because even if I was adopted by my father, my father still has his own son, and he must have a wife... But none of us know who my father's wife is. "

"This kind of thing—is it possible for no one to know?"

Song Zichen couldn't help being startled, blinked his eyes in surprise, and gently opened his wrist.But Mu Qiu just smiled helplessly, nodded lightly and said: "When my father adopted me, there was only my father in the family, and I didn't have the chance to see my wife describe it with my own eyes... Hearing what His Highness said today, I am Suddenly came up with some ideas."

"I see—could it be that your father's wife is actually some kind of relative of Hou Yunhui, or even his daughter?"

Speaking of this, Song Zichen also reacted, and asked in a low voice, with a bit of uncontrollable laughter in his eyes: "If this is the case—Mu Qiu, then you should also follow me, honestly Calling Su Tuhe as my little uncle..."
