Before the noble Meng could finish his words, he was suddenly pinched by a hand. His eyes widened with pain on his face.
"You, you dare... um..."
Yan Mu really dared to do so. The strength on his hand increased and he could break Meng Guiren's neck in the next moment.
"So what if I kill you?" Yan Mu sneered.
Meng Guiren panicked a little and slapped the pillar behind her vigorously. However, the suffocation became more and more severe and she could no longer hold on.
"Yan Mu!"
Liu Yunxiang rushed over and grabbed Yan Mu's hand, asking him to let go.
Yan Mu's eyes narrowed crazily, and then he let go of his hand. Watching Meng Guiren soften to the ground, panting and coughing vigorously, he leaned against the pillar next to him.
"Didn't you ask me to kill you? Why are you afraid again?"
Meng Guiren covered his neck and raised his head, but saw Yan Mu's face smiling sarcastically, but his eyes were full of cold murderous intent. She thought he would take the overall situation into consideration, she thought he wouldn't dare, but she didn't expect him to be so crazy and completely disregarded when he was crazy.
"Meng Guiren, looking at the way you tried so hard to ask for help just now, you probably don't want to die, right?" Liu Yunxiang bent down and looked at Meng Guiren.
Remember URL
"Killing people in the forbidden palace, killing the emperor's most favored concubine. How is this different from forcing the palace to rebel? Do you really dare?" Meng Guiren raised his head and looked at Liu Yunxiang.
"Do you have to push us into a hurry?"
"..."
"Killing you is indeed a bit more troublesome, but it's not impossible to handle."
After saying that, Liu Yunxiang stood up straight and said, "Mengxi, take care of yourself!"
Then, Liu Yunxiang pulled Yan Mu out of the verandah.
"You shouldn't have stopped me just now." Yan Mu whispered.
"The Emperor is looking for her."
"so what?"
"Have you not seen from what happened this time? The Emperor is fascinated by her and will do anything for her. If you really kill her, the Emperor will go completely crazy and kill you. Destroy our Zhenbei Palace and even destroy Da Rong."
Hearing this, Yan Mu stopped and his face suddenly became cold and gloomy.
"Meng'er, who bullied you? Tell me quickly. I will kill him to relieve your hatred. Tell me who it is?"
Yan Mu turned around and saw the emperor walking to the entrance of the hall in his middle coat. Meng Guiren came crying and hurriedly put him in his arms.
"Your Majesty... I am... I am..." Meng Guiren kept sobbing.
"But the prince?"
"Woooo..."
"It must be this evil obstacle, I will destroy him now!"
"Your Majesty... I just miss my child so much..."
"Good boy, let's go back and I'll give you another child."
"good."
Such a ridiculous scene immediately made Yan Mu feel murderous again.
Liu Yunxiang held Yan Mu's hand and told him not to be impulsive. At this time, Xue Changfeng ran over and said that the minister who could not hold on had collapsed.
Now that the snow and wind were getting worse, Yan Mu wrapped Liu Yunxiang tightly in his cloak, and then hugged her to the Royal Garden.
The ministers were still kneeling there, with the snow covering them and the wind blowing it away, making them shivering with cold.
Yan Mu stepped forward and shouted to the ministers: "All ministers, please take care of yourself and leave the palace and return home quickly!"
Hearing this, everyone looked at Yan Mu.
Cabinet scholar Wu Min was in front and asked: "But the emperor asked us to go back?"
"I asked you to go back."
"Your Highness, you have made your own decision. I am afraid that the Emperor will punish you."
Yan Mu's lips curled up, "It's better for the Emperor to punish me alone than for everyone to suffer here."
"this……"
"An old sacrificial wine is enough. You are all important ministers of the country, so you should take care of yourselves."
Seeing that everyone was motionless, Yan Mu walked up to Wu Min and whispered: "If you want to end this matter properly, this is the only way. I hope Mr. Wu will put the overall situation first."
Wu Min changed his mind and saluted Yan Mu, "Then thank you, Your Highness."
With that said, he stood up first, and then called for other ministers to stand up.
"Now that His Highness has spoken, we listen to him and leave the palace as soon as possible."
The great bachelor said this and took the lead to walk back. The others only had 10,000 grievances in their hearts and could only follow suit.
After all the ministers had left, Hongxuan stepped forward and said worriedly: "Your Highness, if you let them leave the palace, what will the Emperor say to you?"
"No explanation."
"ah?"
"If he wants to pursue the case, I will ask him what crime these ministers are guilty of."
Hongxuan clicked his tongue. Asking this question was tantamount to slapping the emperor in the face. Naturally, others would not dare to do so, but Yan Mu had nothing to fear.
At that moment, they dispersed, and Yan Mu took Liu Yunxiang back home.
On the way back home, Liu Yunxiang was held in Yan Mu's arms. Thinking about what happened today, he still felt uneasy.
"The emperor humiliated the ministers like this for Meng Guiren, I'm afraid..."
"The king and his ministers are at odds."
"Um."
"Just wait, there must be big trouble."
Liu Yunxiang rolled his eyes, raised his head and rubbed Yan Mu's chin with the tip of his nose, "The Chinese New Year is almost here, you might as well just call it sick and stay home, and let's have a peaceful New Year."
Yan Mu lowered his head and kissed Liu Yunxiang, "I will ask for sick leave tomorrow. I'm afraid that if it's just one day later, the old guy will be sick."
Liu Yunxiang smiled, "As for those ministers, they still need to be appeased."
"How to appease?"
"It's almost the Chinese New Year. I'll prepare some New Year's gifts and send them to them from house to house. It doesn't matter how big the gift is, as long as they know your thoughts."
"That's fine."
After saying this, the two of them returned to the house, first to dissipate the cold air from their bodies, and then went to see the Three Treasures together. Entering the east room, I saw Jinyan and the nurse were doing needlework, while Sanbao was lying on the warm bed, with the elder sister on the left and the elder brother on the right. The three little guys were sleeping soundly.
Afraid of disturbing the children, Yan Mu pulled Liu Yunxiang out.
Back in the back room, Yan Mu hugged Liu Yunxiang from behind, lowered his head and kissed the back of her neck.
"The Emperor is crazy for Meng Guiren, and I am crazy for you. He doesn't care about the country, the country, and I don't care either. If he kills anyone who dares to hurt Meng Guiren, I will kill him too."
Liu Yunxiang was hugged to the bed by Yan Mu, and all his clothes were taken off.
She smiled and hugged Yan Mu's neck, "Are you going to be a fool in the future too?"
"If you want me to be a wise king, I will be a wise king. If you want me to be a foolish king, I will be a foolish king."
Yan Mu lowered his head and kissed Liu Yunxiang while whispering, "If you want me to live, I will live. If you want me to die, I will die."
Liu Yunxiang followed Yan Mu and said, "You are who you are. I like you no matter what you look like."
And she knew that Yan Mu was an upright man and he would not become a weakling.
Yan Mu handed in his sick leave certificate and stopped going out after that. This time a year ago was often the busiest time for Liu Yunxiang. Because the industry was so huge, there was a mountain of account books submitted from various places. She didn't read them all. She had Zhang Qi and the accountants, but there were still a lot of chores.
The palace should be the busiest at this time of year, but the door to the palace is closed and visitors are declined, which saves a lot of trouble. Liu Yunxiang and the housekeeper drew up a list of gifts and took advantage of the New Year to send them out one after another.
In a blink of an eye, it was twenty-nine and one person came back.
