Chapter 164 You can hide for a while, but not forever
Chapter 164 You can hide for a while, but not forever
Chu Jian and Fusang in Jinling City got married. Regardless of whether it was true or not, the Emperor of Nanbang had already announced it to the world and sent letters to Emperor Lingyin and Queen Beisai.
Emperor Lingyin has always been annoyed with Emperor Nanbang, but considering that Prince Fuso gave three pills last year and saved Jing Muyang, he reluctantly sent a gift.
At this time, the capital of Lingyin Kingdom was in chaos as mentioned before.
Jing Muyang returned to the capital before the New Year and reported everything to the emperor in detail. The prince had no power to refute as there were witnesses and evidence.
It was he who rescued the deserter, it was he who imprisoned the Fourth Prince and snatched the Tiger Tally, it was he who found out that Buhe had leaked military intelligence, and even his people were the ones who were finally captured in the rebellion in northern Syria.
Some of the things he did do could not be refuted, while some of the things he could not prove were not his doings and he was unable to refute them. Anyway, they were all blamed on him.
The emperor was so heartbroken that he had locked him up in the Eastern Palace, but at this point he had no excuses. Not immediately deposing the crown prince was the emperor's last act of kindness to him.
Jing Muhao was also in the clan residence, but he told everything clearly, explaining everything in detail.
The general meaning is that he listened to all the decisions made by the prince and everyone else, and he never did anything privately.
In addition, Jing Muyang, Gao Le and many others testified that Jing Muhao fought bravely and never retreated. This calmed the emperor down a little and he released him on New Year's Eve, but confinement was inevitable.
Now, the wind direction in the court of Lingyin Kingdom has changed. The ministers have almost seen the end of the crown prince who was imprisoned in the East Palace and have no hope.
The Queen's Party has been jumping around for half a year without any improvement, so it's probably over.
There was no hope for the third prince to return; the fifth and sixth princes were not even among the options they supported;
Compared with the Fourth Prince and the Ninth Prince, it is obvious that the Ninth Prince, His Royal Highness the Prince of War, is more qualified to rule the world.
Especially after the sudden arrival of the Queen of Beisai after the New Year, the entire wind direction turned to Jing Muyang's side.
"Xiaojiu, I didn't expect that Toya would come to the capital." The fourth prince joked, "I was thinking of bringing you and Ruyi together before, but now it seems that I have to go back and have a good talk with Ruyi. Facing such a competitor, she has no chance."
"Fourth brother, please stop laughing at me. My head is about to explode. Tuoya is just a child. You can't hit her or kill her. The key is that the emperor agreed to it. It's ridiculous!"
Jing Muyang has been hiding in the Fourth Prince's Mansion for several days. After Toya came to Beijing, she went to Prince Zhan's Mansion to find him every day.
The emperor was so happy to see her that he would not allow anyone to stop her, and no one dared to stop her. She went straight into Prince Zhan's mansion as if it was her own home.
Fortunately, Toya still had one last rule. She was afraid that Jing Muyang didn't like her, so although she went to Prince Zhan's mansion every day, she never wandered around randomly. She would ask but would not ask about anything that happened when they first met.
"Xiaojiu, it's rare to find someone who cares about you. Please consider it."
"Fourth brother, please help me think of a solution."
"I can't think of anything. In fact, Fourth Brother is very supportive of you two. Xiaojiu, maybe you should change your mindset and try to get along with Toya. I think she is playful and lively, which should be the type you like. Moreover, she brought Jiangshan with her. She is really sincere."
"Brother-in-law." Li Ruyi took Liu Yiyi to the mansion.
Jing Xu followed Liu Yiyi happily. When he saw Jing Muyun, he immediately came up to him and threw himself into his arms, "Daddy!"
"Hey, Xu'er is back." Jing Muyun picked him up. Jing Xu spent most of his time in the Taifu Mansion under the care of Li Ruyi.
"Your Highness Prince Zhan, the Fourth Prince!" Liu Yiyi saluted.
"Miss Liu, there's no need to be polite. You can be as polite as Ruyi." Jing Muyun asked them to sit down.
After Liu Yiyi broke off her engagement with the Eighth Prince, she openly followed Ruyi to the Fourth Prince's Mansion frequently. The elders had already turned a blind eye, and it was only a matter of time before this couple would be together.
"Why is His Royal Highness the War King here? Didn't he say he went to the camp outside the capital?"
Li Ruyi was very confused. When she just went out, she saw Tuoya riding a horse at full speed on the street. She heard that she was going to the camp outside Beijing to find Jing Muyang.
"Ruyi, it seems that His Royal Highness the King of War is hiding from someone." Liu Yiyi covered her mouth and laughed.
"Oh~ But, Your Highness, I also think Toya is pretty good. She had tea with us a few days ago. She is cheerful and straightforward. She is not cunning and very sincere. Yiyi and I like her very much! Your Highness, why don't you marry her?"
Li Ruyi smiled. She became closer to the brothers in the Liu Mansion. She felt that she didn't like Jing Muyang as much as before. Although she truly admired and loved him when they were young, but for someone who let go so easily when he made a bet with Chu Xia, maybe she really didn't like him that much.
"Ruyi, don't talk nonsense!" Jing Muyang's head hurt even more. Why did they keep grabbing him one by one and wouldn't let go?
"Okay." Li Ruyi behaved herself and stopped teasing him. They gradually started talking about other topics. Mainly, the two girls told them about what happened in the capital in the past six months, but it seemed that Jing Muyang already knew most of it.
Jing Muyang avoided Toya, but he could not avoid her forever. During the Lantern Festival banquet, the emperor specially arranged for Toya to sit next to Jing Muyang.
This made Toya very happy. It can be said that except for Jing Muyang who was particularly awkward, all the ministers in the hall had smiling faces.
The emperor was also happy and ordered Jing Muyang to take Toya to the lantern festival in the evening and be fully responsible for her safety.
Jing Muyang had no choice, he could neither dodge nor push away, the key point was that Tuoya had finally caught him this time, and she was like a dog-skin plaster, he couldn't get rid of it no matter how hard he tried, she was sticking to him.
No one was willing to help him out, so he had to take Toya out.
Toya, who went out, was like a wild horse. She looked around and was interested in everything. She bought countless lanterns. However, no matter how interested she was in other things, she would not stay too far away from Jing Muyang. She would just jump and dance happily beside him.
"Your Highness..." Qingshan tried to express his opinion.
"Shut up! You and Qingye watch her, I'm going to have some tea."
Jing Muyang turned into the teahouse in a blink of an eye. He roughly knew what Qingshan wanted to say.
But his head was buzzing and he really needed to calm down. Where did Toya get the energy to be so talkative and to go out so much?
Jing Muyang probably forgot that Chu Jian was more active and energetic than Tuoya.
During the Lantern Festival last year, she not only visited the Lantern Festival, but also promoted the Xunyi Clinic. The whole street was bustling with excitement because of the advertisement that was first seen. The focus of the Lantern Festival that night was overshadowed by the advertisement of the Xunyi Clinic. In order not to reveal his identity, Jing Muyang wore a mask and ordinary clothes and followed her the whole time, watching her go crazy.
Yuxian Teahouse.
Jing Muyang did not go to the exclusive private room, but sat in the most inconspicuous seat in the hall which was half blocked by beams and pillars.
He ordered a pot of tea, a plate of snacks, leaned back on a low chair, and read a book. He liked quietness more and more, and it would be best if no one disturbed him.
He could hear Toya's voice looking for him on the street. She had also been to the Yuxian Teahouse. Qingshan led her to the private room to look, but when she didn't find him, she went out and looked somewhere else.
Well, not bad. To borrow what I said at first sight, I can give Qingshan a chicken drumstick when I go back.
