Chapter 665
Mu Yunyao repeated the news that Prince Jin might be involved in the kidnapping of Princess Yu's wife to King Yue. After hearing it, King Yue frowned,
"Yao`er, your guess is right. Prince Jin has already sent a letter today requesting to marry the princess of the northern border.
"
Mu Yunyao's eyes flashed,
"Has the Emperor agreed?
"
"Father has already agreed.
"
Mu Yunyao was a little puzzled.
"The Emperor should have already known about the movements of Prince Jin and the northern border. Why would he still agree?
"
"You saw royal father's body condition, he only wants to help second brother clean up the situation …
"
"In other words, the Emperor is prepared to give up on Prince Jin as well?
" Mu Yunyao couldn't stop her heart from sinking. The Emperor had a total of four adult children, and now he had to personally give up on two of them. Her heart couldn't be more troubled. King Jin took the initiative to propose marriage, causing royal father to be extremely disappointed. In the recent years, when royal father has grown older, he has actually forgiven us princes a lot. But in the end, he has always placed more emphasis on the important matter of the empire, even if he wanted to personally kill his own sons.
Sigh, I can't let all the people in the world suffer together with you. Fortunately, there is still royal aunt accompanying him right now. royal father's heart can feel a little better, but he said that he needed to take good care of his health and no longer cared about politics …
"
Mu Yunyao nodded,
"This is also good …
"
The two of them had a heavy heart and were also tired from all kinds of things. After chatting for a while, they didn't mention the matter of getting married. Mu Yunyao secretly let out a breath of relief as she leaned into King Yue's embrace, the heat continuously flowing in. She didn't have to worry about the cold during the night and quickly fell asleep. When her breathing steadied, King Fu opened his eyes. Through the darkness of the night, he could only see the faint outline of her face. Although it was blurry, it still made him feel as if …
He felt his heart palpitate.
He secretly sighed and suppressed the agitation he had because he came into contact with Mu Yunyao's soft and warm body. After kissing between her eyebrows, he embraced her and fell asleep.
The next day, Mu Yunyao walked back to her room symbolically. When Xu Yanhan saw that her cheeks were rosy and her expression was normal, he heaved a sigh of relief.
"Yao`er, is Jun Yue nice to you?
"
Mu Yunyao held onto Xu Yanhan's arm and nodded heavily.
"Don't worry mother, Fourth Master treats me extremely well.
"
"That's good.
" Xu Yanhan saw that Mu Yunyao's expression was still pure. Thinking about what had happened recently, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Yao`er, you and Jun Yue still don't have a marriage?
"
Mu Yunyao's cheeks slightly blushed.
"Mother … I have been busy these past few days. Second Sister-in-Law and Master Liu were injured in succession. Fourth Master and I were so busy that our feet didn't touch the ground, so …
"So …
"
"Alright, alright. Mother knows. Is Imperial Concubine Yu and the six taels of silver doing well?
"
"Yes, Second Sister has King Yu to accompany her. She has also thought it through and recovered well these few days. However, her injuries are very severe and she still needs to recuperate carefully.
" Yao'er, mother is someone who has been through a long time. I'm afraid you have some ulterior motives. Have you decided what to do?
" The word 'love' hurt the most, and six silver was a good thing. If she could, she didn't want such a good person to get hurt, but Yao'er only had one … She and
Furthermore, both of them were in love with each other. Now that they were married, it could only mean that they were fated to be together. Mu Yunyao lowered her head,
"Mother, I really didn't think it through. I know that matters of the heart are constantly in disarray, but now that six of them are heavily injured, he has been holding himself back from saying a single word to me. If I want to refuse, I have no choice but to take it one step at a time. Maybe it's been a long time
Six or two will meet someone more to his liking.
"
"Alright, it's been a while. I don't even know if I'll be able to figure it out by myself …
" Xu Yanhan handed over the handmade Eight Treasures Rice.
Mu Yunyao suppressed the complicated feelings in her heart and happily ate the entire bowl of food. Xu Yanhan felt very happy when she saw this.
Just as he put down the utensils, a report came in from the outside:
"We've come down from the Palace.
"
As soon as King Yue entered, he bowed towards Xu Yanhan:
"Greetings, mother.
"
Xu Yanhan smiled and looked at Mu Yunyao,
"Jun Yue, you and Yao`er are very close, so there's no need to intentionally unify the names. Just follow what your imperial aunt said and call each of you your own.
"
King Yue raised his head to look at Mu Yunyao. Seeing the faint smile on her face, he couldn't help but calm down.
"Mother, Yao'er and I will call you mother when we meet at the Grand Princess's side.
Xu Yanhan nodded and thought of Mu Yunyao calling her mother. On the other hand, Ning Junyue wanted to call her elder cousin. She felt a little awkward,
"That's fine, Si Qin. Go and get a bowl and chopsticks.
"
After King Yue finished his meal in Jade Flower Palace, he then went to pay his respects to the Emperor and Grand Princess Yi. Only then did he accompany Mu Yunyao out of the palace.
On the carriage, King Yue suddenly thought of a question:
"Yao'er, it seems like you have a crush on the Eight Treasures Rice that your mother cooked?
" Mu Yunyao was stunned and couldn't help but nod her head,
"That's right, in my previous life's dream, before my mother was sold to the Li family as my concubine, the last meal she cooked was the Eight Treasures Rice. At that time, my family's food supply was in short supply, so my mother sold the hairpin my father gave her before finally buying enough to cook.
"Food.....
"
Yue Yang hugged Mu Yunyao tightly in his embrace,
"Yao`er, stop thinking, I shouldn't have asked such a question.
"
Mu Yunyao shook her head. Now that she had a peaceful and sweet life, even if she recalled the past, she wouldn't have that heart-tearing and lung-splitting feeling anymore.
"It's alright. Actually, every time I eat Eight Treasures Rice right now, I feel extremely fortunate. I'm glad that I had a dream. I'm glad that mother is safe by my side.
"
"I hope that the turmoil in the capital will end soon. This way, we can put down the matters here as soon as possible and take advantage of royal father's health to bring father, grandmother, and mother to the South Sea to take a look …
"
Thinking about the Emperor's body, Mu Yunyao's heart became heavy,
"Fourth Master, if we work together, we'll definitely be able to quell all these troubles.
"
"Alright.
"
In the next period of time, due to the rule of King Yu, many officials in the imperial court gradually treated him like a future monarch, doing their utmost to serve and assist him.
According to the plan, King Yu began to weaken the Li Clan's influence step by step, starting with the subordinate officials and searching every single one of them. As long as he found any problems, he would be demoted to a demoted official, and his sentence would be sentenced.
Li Qingzhou's expression was exceptionally gloomy as he went to court every day. He thought that even if the Emperor wanted King Yu to manage the country, he would not completely give up power. After all, who would not be tempted by the throne? How could the Emperor be willing to hand over his power to King Yu? However, what he didn't expect was that the Emperor really let go completely. He didn't seem to be greedy of power at all. This action caused the Li family to fall into an exceptionally passive state.
