The night falls and the breeze blows.

After washing and bathing, Yan Li, who was dressed in pajamas, leaned on the bedside and read books casually.

The candlelight flickered, and the inner room was quiet.

The girl's eyebrows are delicate and her face is beautiful and refined.

The long and curled eyelashes cover the cold eyes, and the bright white skin becomes even more stunning under the light of the lights.

Yan Li's heart was not in the book, and her thoughts couldn't help but drift away.

Thinking about what Mu Cang was doing at this time, was he happy or nervous about the wedding tomorrow?

When did he see her and express his admiration for her?

The Ninth Prince, who is under one person but outnumbers ten thousand people in the Mu Kingdom, has 300,000 troops and has great military exploits. He is powerful and noble.

Regardless of whether it is a prince or a noble official, whoever sees him must not pay three homages to him?

Noble and glorious, the scenery is outstanding.

Are you really willing to give up everything for one person?

Yan Li sighed, the word "love" is really difficult to understand.

No wonder the ancestors said that it is difficult for a hero to be a beauty.

When she was young and studying, her emperor never once reminded her that a king should avoid paying too much attention to love, especially the love between men and women.

You can like it, you can pamper it, but you can't be infatuated.

If an emperor is too infatuated, he will easily become a foolish king.

How could she see that Mu Cang's behavior was exactly the same as the emperor's "faint king"?

Suddenly, a slight knock on the window penetrated my eardrums.

The maid on duty didn't hear it, but Yan Li raised her head and said calmly: "You go to rest first, there is no need to stay here."

"yes."

Yan Li closed the book inside and put it aside, then stood up and walked to the back window.

Gently open the window a little, as if admiring the night.

"The wedding is tomorrow... Your Majesty has really decided?" Ming Qi, who had been absent for several days, stood in the dim view outside the window and said in a deep voice, "The Queen of Jin is about to arrive in the imperial city, which will inevitably involve the Mu and Jin states. His Majesty will inevitably be involved in the secret marriage. "

Yan Li was silent for a moment: "Tian Shu came to report last night and said that the emperor had sent someone to pay attention to the movements of the Nine Princes' Mansion."

Ming Qi frowned: "The Ninth Prince has too much power, so it's normal for the emperor to be a little wary."

Yan Li hummed: "The emperor is very thoughtful. Even if he trusts Mu Cang, it is impossible for him not to be on guard at all."

She had frequent contacts with Mu Cang during this period, and she did not shy away from talking to Ming Qi in the teahouse.

Gu Heyu was poisoned in the teahouse, and then Mu Xiuyu personally arrived at Jiang's house to ask for the antidote.

The emperor must know these things, and it is impossible that he has no idea.

"If the emperor is really suspicious of the Ninth Prince." Ming Qi looked at Yan Li, "Your Majesty will not sit idly by."

Yan Li shook his head: "Emperor Mu is a king who takes the overall situation into consideration. Mu is currently facing the eyes of Jin and Northern Xinjiang. Compared with the emperor's fear, the stability of the country is more important."

So even if he had some thoughts about Mu Cang in his heart, Emperor Zhaocheng would not make any move for the time being.

Unless Mu Cang clearly reveals his disobedient ambition.

"I think the Ninth Prince is more suitable to sit on the throne than those princes." Ming Qi muttered, and then he suggested, "Your Majesty, why don't we simply help him ascend the throne and become emperor?"

Yan Li looked at him strangely: "What are you trying to do?"

Ming Qi touched his nose: "This is my sincere suggestion, from the bottom of my heart."

"Mu Cang has no idea about the throne." Yan Li leaned against the window and spoke in a leisurely tone, "Besides, this is another country's internal affairs and has nothing to do with us. Don't make bad intentions."

Ming Qi sighed.

He felt that the marriage between Mu Cang and Yan Li was not suitable at all.

If Mu Cang can really become the emperor, he will be indispensable for the three palaces and six courtyards, so your majesty will naturally not have anything to do with him anymore.

What's more, once he ascends the throne as emperor, Mu Cang will be able to stay in Mu country for the rest of his life and will not be able to go anywhere. Sooner or later, His Majesty will return to the southern country, and we will never have contact with each other until death.

Isn’t this marriage just in name only?

"If you have nothing to do, go back and rest early." Yan Li stretched out his hand to close the window, "I'm worried about the matter with Mu Cang."

Ming Qi stretched out his arms for a moment, with a serious expression on his face: "The Ninth Prince of the Mu Kingdom is a very outstanding man. Does Your Majesty like him?"

Yan Li was stunned. Do you like it?

She thought about it seriously: "It feels pretty good, but not to the level you said."

Ming Qi frowned: "I have a bad feeling."

Yan Li raised her eyebrows and looked at him without saying a word.

"Your Majesty, it's better to get away now." Ming Qi persuaded, "The love between a man and a woman is the most hurtful and should not be touched lightly, especially when Your Majesty still shoulders the heavy responsibility of the country, and he should not focus on the love between his children. superior."

The most important thing is that Mu Cang has a special status and his leader is so powerful.

If you don't get involved with him clearly, I'm afraid it will lead to unimaginable consequences. m.

"You worry too much." Yan Li closed the window calmly and stopped talking to him. "Go back and rest early. Don't think too much about anything else."

Don't say that she doesn't want to be involved in the love between men and women.

Even if you really fall in love with someone, you will always remain rational and decide whether your family, country, society, or personal feelings are more important.

Letting emotions dominate reason is definitely not the behavior of a qualified emperor.

Ming Qi left.

Yan Li walked back to the inner room, slowly lay down on the bed, and quietly stared at the hanging soft smoke bed curtains.

Love between children?

Ming Qi is really worried.

She is an ambitious empress. Even if she is betrayed by someone she trusts and has a setback, she will not doubt her ability.

Her responsibility is the country and the people of the South.

She wants to be a wise and unparalleled empress and create a prosperous era for the South.

Let the South become the hegemon of the Nine Provinces and let her be remembered forever.

Instead of being immersed in the corrupting love and affection and losing her will and self.

Yan Li closed her eyes gently and thought so in her heart.

Until the subtle sound came again.

Yan Li opened her eyes, turned her head to look in the direction of the rear window, and frowned unconsciously.

The window was quietly opened, and a thin man in black jumped in.

Yan Li just looked at him quietly without saying a word.

Until the man closed the window and turned around.

The handsome and noble face was reflected in the light without any concealment, like a flawless treasure carefully crafted by God, perfect and impeccable.

Yan Li couldn't help but sigh, with a hint of teasing in his tone: "When did the Ninth Prince learn to break into a woman's boudoir at night?"

The person who came was Mu Cang.

The night clothes took away some of the cold and stern pressure, and he looked thin and agile, and his slender and thin perfect body was fully revealed under the fitted night clothes.

Walking into the inner room, Mu Cang looked at Yan Li lying on the bed in his pajamas, and pursed his lips: "Who was here just now?"

Yan Li hummed, his face was normal, and it was obviously not surprising that Mu Cang knew.

Mu Cang said calmly: "It was a man."
