The night is thick

Princess Yongyang stood in the corridor, without any sleepiness, and looked up at the moon with her eyes open.

"Princess, it's getting late, it's time to rest." Huiju lowered her voice, afraid of disturbing Princess Yongyang. Since the news came from the palace, Princess Yongyang has been silent and staring blankly from time to time.

"I don't know how Xiaoqi is doing in the palace."

"The lady is so smart, she can definitely protect herself. Besides, the lady is not a guilty person, so there may not be anyone in the palace to treat the lady harshly." Hui Ju advised.

After saying this, Princess Yongyang felt a little relieved. She sniffed for a while and was awakened by the nightmare. "When is it?"

Huiju hurried forward, "It's the fifth day, don't you sleep for a while?"

"No, help me up."

I lost my sleepiness and felt uncomfortable lying down. It was dawn outside, and today was the tenth day of Concubine Zheng Shu's death.

"Princess, Mrs. Changping Hou is here."

Princess Yongyang raised her eyebrows and said after a while, "Please come in."

After a while, Mrs. Changping Hou arrived and sat beside Princess Yongyang, "I heard that you have been sick for a long time and have not gone out to meet guests. I have been worried, how are you doing now?"

Princess Yongyang shook her head, "No problem, I'm just worried about Xiaoqi in the palace."

"I guessed that Xiaoqi fell ill. The palace is now rigorous. If you really can't find out, don't worry. After a while, Xiaoqi will naturally be released back." The wife of Changping Marquis paused and said, "Yesterday the Emperor had issued an order to ask the Marquis to order the army."

"Select the troops?" Princess Yongyang's eyelids suddenly jumped and she looked at the Changping Houfu in a daze.

Mrs. Changping Hou nodded, "Not only the Hou's Mansion, but also General Shangguan and Hou Bei'an are all ready to go, just waiting for an order to set off at any time."

"This is going to change..."

No wonder the Bei'an Hou Mansion hurriedly sent a letter, repeatedly reminding Princess Yongyang not to act rashly and wait for the news. Even Wei Wanning had no news, so it should be to avoid people's eyes.

"The second prince of Beijin ran away, and the prince Jin's mansion was also ready to move. The emperor must have been forced to force this time. There was a panic outside, and even the people knew that things were unusual."

Princess Yongyang closed her eyebrows, held a cup of tea in her hand, took a sip, and after a while, she asked, "I can't help but come here to tell me this. I haven't gone out for a long time, and I don't know that outside has reached this point."

"Why should we be so polite in our friendship?" Mrs. Changping smiled faintly, but soon the smile on her face calmed down again. "If this battle continues, I don't know how many people will suffer from misfortune in the future. They will commit evil."

Princess Yongyang sighed.

"I'm here today, there's something to ask for." Mrs. Changping Hou simply threw away his face. Princess Yongyang nodded and signaled that Mrs. Changping Hou would say it directly.

"If a family is married and helping each other, it may save a lot of trouble. My wife and Duke Zheng Guo were still in love, so I would also help persuade her..."

As far as he said this, although there was no mention of it, Princess Yongyang immediately understood that Mrs. Changping still cares about Mu Heng!

Princess Yongyang didn't know what it felt like, but for Mu Heng, he helped Wei Xi plead with Duke Zheng's wife, but wanted Princess Yongyang to be a lobbyist and let Mu Heng compromise on the marriage.

"I understand your intentions. This child is used to making trouble on weekdays and doesn't know whether he did something wrong. If he really did something wrong, even if the emperor gave her death, I, a mother, would have nothing to say."

Princess Yongyang pretended to be entangled, "After all, it is a life, and there is still a young prince who has not been born, but if it weren't for Xiaoqi's work, the emperor wouldn't have wronged Xiaoqi."

Mrs. Changping Hou was choking and couldn't believe her ears. How could she say such words?

In my memory, Princess Yongyang loved Wei Jing the most. As long as Wei Jing suffered a grievance, Princess Yongyang would feel distressed for a long time.

"Last time Miss Zheng had an accident at the Marquis' Mansion of Changping, the wife of Duke Zheng had already annoyed you. I really have no face to disturb you and asked you to ask the wife of Duke Zheng. Besides, although Concubine Shu is the daughter of Duke Zheng's Mansion, she is also the imperial concubine. She can't let go of this matter by pleading with others a few words."

Mrs. Changping looked embarrassed and quickly picked up the topic. She didn't mention it anymore, but just talked about some of the other people.

I sat down for a while before leaving.

"Princess, what does Madam Hou mean? Even though he knew that the princess was worried about the lady, he still thought of Lord Mu."

Huiju couldn't even see it, it was clearly a threat.

Princess Yongyang sighed, "One code is the same as one code. Xiaoqi is Xiaoqi, and Hengge is Hengge. There is no reason to be wronged. Hengge goes to save Xiaoqi. Besides, I believe Xiaoqi was wronged. At present, I cannot act rashly."

She posed and ignored Wei Yan. The Emperor of Southern Liang had to consider it. Wei Wanning had already married the Marquis of Bei'an, and was protected by the Marquis of Bei'an. She could not be a hindrance to Wei Baixiao.

What we are comparing now is patience.

Whoever surrenders first will lose.

Emperor Nanliang could obviously conquer Wei Baixiao, but he used the most intense method, which was counterproductive.

...

When Mrs. Changping Hou returned to the mansion, Wen Qiyan quickly came forward, "Mother, what do you mean by the princess?"

After saying what happened just now, Wen Qiyan's face froze and was full of incredibleness, even Wen Rufeng was stunned.

"Princess, do you care about Wei Jing's life or death?"

Mrs. Changping Hou nodded, "It's true. I just talked about this in front of me. Perhaps we were all wrong."

"No, right!" Wen Qiyan shook her head, "It must be Wei Jing who said hello in advance, or the princess gave up her daughter for her son."

"Wei Jing has not been convicted yet. Wouldn't it be that he pleaded for Wei Jing at this time admit it? Perhaps the princess is waiting for Wei Jing to be convicted."

Wen Rufeng thought for a long time and could only draw this conclusion. He had lived for more than ten years and believed that he had seen countless people, but he just couldn't guess the ideas of the Wei family, and they were different every time.

"Why might as well try Lord Mu's side?"

Looking at Wen Qiyan's impatient look, Mrs. Changping Hou asked, "Why are you so sure that Lord Mu must like Wei Jing?"

Wen Qiyan bit her lip, "If you don't like it, Lord Mu will not save anyone. If you like it, you will definitely agree."

Mrs. Changping Hou was really helpless. The Liu family had been so busy these two days that she had no choice but to look at Wen Rufeng, "You and Lord Mu are classmates. You invite Lord Mu to your home as a guest."

Wen Rufeng looked at Wen Qiyan and hesitated a little, "The Mu family and the Wei family have an entangled relationship. If Wei Baixiao really rebelled..."

"No, even if Wei Baixiao rebels, Lord Mu will not rebel." Wen Qiyan interrupted Wen Rufeng's words simply and neatly, "Wei Baixiao is a traitor. The Mu family will definitely have too deep contact with such people. It would be enough for the tragic incident in the Princess's Mansion eight years ago. How dare Lord Mu repeat the same mistake?"

"Mr. Mu is a clear person, otherwise he would not have come to Kyoto City from the border." Mrs. Changping Hou recognized Wen Qiyan's words.

"Okay, I'll go there."

Wen Rufeng found Mu Heng and respectfully called him Lord Mu. Mu Heng frowned, "Why is Lord Wen here?"

"That's right. If you have something to do, please give me some face to visit the humble house and discuss it in detail."

Mu Heng had a calm face, "Sorry, I'm in business..."

"It's about Miss Wei who is under house arrest in the palace."

An hour later, Mu Heng sat in the yard of Changping Hou Mansion and set up a table of good wine and dishes. Wen Rufeng personally treated him. Midway through, Wen Rufeng found an excuse to leave.

Mu Heng remained motionless.

"Mr. Mu!"

A soft voice came from behind, and Mu Heng was not surprised at all. He looked at Wen Qiyan who was sitting opposite him. Wen Qiyan's face turned slightly red and his voice was gentle, "I know Lord Mu is worried about Sister Wu, so this is not a matter of worry."

Wen Qiyan poured a glass of wine and handed it to Mu Heng, but Mu Heng did not take it. He just said coldly, "I don't know what Miss Wen is going to say. If nothing else, I will have important things to do. Let me say goodbye first."

"Mr. Mu!" Wen Qiyan hurriedly called Mu Heng, "I can help you find out about Sister Wang."

Mu Heng sat down again after hearing this.

Seeing this, Wen Qiyan was not surprised. She realized that Mu Heng liked Wei Jing.

"Please also say it clearly for Miss Wen."

"Mr. Mu, I'm also worried about being a sister. But this matter is very involved and I can't explain it clearly in a few words."

Mu Heng was patient and waited.

Wen Qiyan was always talking to herself. Occasionally, Mu Heng would deal with a few words, but he really lost his patience.

Wen Qiyan choked and said, "Last time, Lord Mu and the future of Marseille, I am also in a deep trouble now. I wonder if I can ask Lord Mu to help me. I know that it is a bit abrupt to say this, but I really have no choice. The Liu family is very forced..."

Mu Heng frowned and said nothing.

"Can you ask Lord Mu to take a marriage? In the future, if Lord Mu feels it is inappropriate, you can terminate the marriage at any time and save me from the water and fire?" Wen Qiyan's eyes turned red and she stared at Mu Heng in a daze, looking aggrieved.

"Mr. Mu, my sister is talented and gentle. She is also well-educated and well-educated, and was born in a famous family. She is worthy of the Liu family, which is like pushing people into a fire pit." Wen Rufeng appeared appropriately and helped persuade her.

"I am a rough man and I am a illegitimate child, so I am not worthy of Miss Wen. Miss Wen should think of it differently." Mu Heng said in a deep voice.

"Mr. Mu, the mansion has already told the Liu family that my sister had made a marriage with Lord Mu. The situation was urgent that day, and it was urged by the Liu family that there was no way. Please forgive me." Wen Rufeng bowed his hand and held his fists.

Compared with the weak and incompetent person of Master Liu, Wen Rufeng still hopes that his brother-in-law is a talented person, and he is very optimistic about Mu Heng.

"Mr. Mu, when you have someone you like in the future, we can terminate the engagement at any time. You just need to pretend to be like and block this disaster for me. Qi Yan is very grateful." Wen Qiyan bent her knees at Mu Heng, lowered her head, revealing a piece of slender and white neck, showing her gentleness.

Mu Heng stood up with a stern face, his slender and upright body, and raised his hand slightly at Wen Qiyan, "Ms. Wen is polite. It is related to Miss Wen's innocence and reputation. I will not obey my fate. For this matter, Miss Wen should look for someone else."

Wen Qiyan's smile froze on her face, "Now only Lord Mu can help. Apart from that, I don't know who I should look for. Besides, I can trust Lord Mu. As for my innocent reputation, I will not blame Lord Mu, as long as I overcome this difficulty."

"I am just such a sister, so I can't watch her jump into the fire pit. If you help, the Changping Marquis' Mansion will definitely plead for Miss Wei and deal with me everywhere, and will not hesitate." Wen Rufeng followed closely.

Mu Heng pursed his lips tightly and said nothing for a long time.

"The Changping Marquis Mansion is an important official around the emperor and holds real power. Even if Lord Mu doesn't think about Miss Wei, he should think about it for the Mu family. One more person will help you more."

After talking for a long time, Mu Heng did not give a clear attitude. Wen Qiyan took a step forward, "I know that Lord Mu already has someone he likes in his heart. Sister Wu is still young, but Lord Mu is talented and has a majestic talent. How many women in Kyoto City are thinking about Lord Mu. If one day Lord Mu is forced to marry someone, what should I do if Sister Wu?"

These words undoubtedly hit Mu Heng's heart, and they suddenly felt a little loose. Wen Qiyan smiled faintly, "Don't worry, if I really have this day, I will definitely let go. I also know that the forced melon is not sweet, and I don't think I will force Lord Mu."

After saying this, Mu Heng couldn't help but look at Wen Qiyan, generous, gentle and virtuous.
