Prince Mu Jingluo was not timid, and looked at her calmly and said: "Father, you love sister Jincheng the most, and you definitely hope that she will live forever and have a beautiful face. Why don't you ask my son to help her first!"

Mu Xianyi who was on the side heard the words, and immediately kowtowed: "Father, the prince brother is crazy! If you burn my son with fire, will my son still survive? He clearly wants to kill me under the pretext of helping me live forever! Hope!" Father and Emperor Mingjian!"

Ling Xuetang, who was kneeling beside him, also said in a cold voice: "Your Majesty! I don't know how I and the princess have offended His Highness the Crown Prince. His Highness the Crown Prince actually wants to use such a vicious method to kill the Princess. Please enlighten me!"

But Mu Jingluo looked sideways at the couple, and seriously reprimanded: "Nonsense! Haven't you heard the story about Yang Yuhuan being hanged to death by Li Longji in Maweipo, and later called Fairy Yuzhen? I'm clearly doing it for you Alright, but you guys are slandering me with murderous intentions, you really don't know what is good or bad!"

"This is just a fiction of unofficial history. Have you ever seen a mortal who really achieved Taoism? If there was a chance to achieve Taoism, why did Qin Shihuang die on the way out? And the death of Qin Dynasty II was not because he was dedicated to pursuing the art of immortality. But don't you know the reason why the country is governed and good ministers are promoted!" Mu Xianyi said loudly and straightened his neck.

The people listening, including the prince, broke into a cold sweat for her.

This is clearly ridiculing Emperor Zhang Wu's study of Qin Shihuang's obsession with immortality, but he didn't think about governing the country, and he stayed away from virtuous officials and approached villains...

The face of Emperor Zhang Wu at the top changed a few times, like the cloudy sky before a thunderstorm, and the wind and clouds changed color.

There was deathly silence in the hall.

Emperor Zhang Wu was about to fly into a rage when he suddenly saw Mu Xianyi walking forward on his knees, kneeling and crying, "Oh, Father, don't be angry, it's all the prince's brother's idea, and he asked me to say these words, It's not that I intend to offend you, I can't say these great truths, if you want to get angry, you can take it on him, I'm wronged!"

Who is his father?Isn't it clear what the two brothers want to say?It's better for him to recruit himself first, and sell it to his father. Moreover, he seems to put all the blame on the prince, but in fact he is giving the credit to the prince.

When his father heard this, he knew that the crown prince wanted to persuade him, but he was afraid of offending him, so he came up with such an idea.

The prince Mu Jingluo on the side was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then he immediately came back to his senses, clasped his fists and said: "Father, my son has no choice but to come up with such a ridiculous idea, I implore the father to consider the opinions of all the ministers." Submit a letter to suspend the construction of the Xingyu Building!"

At this time, King Yu hurriedly stepped forward to hit the iron while it was hot: "Your Majesty, although Princess Jincheng's words are harsh, they are loyal words. Since the first emperor of the Qin family, there have been countless emperors who have asked for immortality. How many people are there? Rather than seeking immortality, it is better to seek immortality and fame through the ages, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Zhang Wu's livid face softened a little, presumably the words of these three people pointed out his previous stubborn thoughts.It's just that his face is still gloomy, and he doesn't seem to have the slightest intention to speak.

Ling Xuetang looked at Mu Xianyi with some doubts, who knew that Mu Xianyi blinked at him, and said to Emperor Zhang Wu who was standing above him:

"Father, my son knows that you built the Xingyu Building to watch the sky at night and see if there are any disasters that endanger the people. You are not seeking immortality. They have misunderstood you. You can scold and punish you. Don't get so angry... If you are really angry, why don't you beat the elder brother of the prince, so that all the officials will know that you didn't take your anger on them because they disobeyed you, right?"

The prince on the side was first annoyed, and said helplessly: "Father, it is indeed my son's fault that I misunderstood you. You have to vent your anger, even if you punish my son."

It is said that Emperor Zhang Wu built the Xingyu Tower not to seek immortality, but to predict disasters for the people. He had conflicts with the officials not because the officials objected, but because the officials misunderstood him, which gave Emperor Zhang Wu a step down. Coupled with the fact that the prince took the initiative to take the blame, Emperor Zhang Wu could not punish his officials anymore.

I saw Emperor Zhang Wu purposefully put on a straight face, glared at Mu Xianyi, and said: "You are the one who is the best at getting cheap!"

"Hey hey." Mu Xianyi gave him a cute smile.

"Forget it, you all go away, I won't argue with you anymore!" Emperor Zhang Wu waved his hand, and finally let go.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Qi Qi quit.

The courtiers kneeling outside heard that the emperor had let go, and they all looked at each other in amazement—they all thought that it would be impossible to be kind today, and they would definitely see blood. Who knew that it would be resolved so easily?

Mu Xianyi didn't stay either, since she was a "princess" after all, it wasn't suitable for meeting foreign ministers, so she took the carriage back to Zhen Guogong's mansion first.

As long as the Ling family and the son-in-law know what he has done, let the crown prince enjoy the praise of these ministers!
