The servant retreated and closed the door according to her instructions, leaving her and Mu Jingchen alone.

The moment the door was closed, the duchess looked at Mu Jingchen, somewhat unconvinced: "Are you the master of that finger?"

Mu Jingchen nodded solemnly: "Yes."

After getting his affirmative answer, the duchess suddenly knelt on her knees, put one palm on the back of the other hand, and bowed to him.

In this regard, Mu Jingchen's eyes were indifferent, without any reaction.

"Get up."

The Duchess got up and said respectfully: "Mr. Mu, please sit down."

Mu Jingchen sat on the mahogany chair in front of him, looked at the duchess standing in front of him, and asked, "Why do you want to see me?"

The duchess began to think about Lin Ze's visit to the mansion to find her yesterday, and replied: "Yesterday, Mr. Mu didn't send someone to tell me that something happened in the palace, did the queen try to force her to abdicate?"

Mu Jingchen remained silent, looking at her blankly.

She continued: "I know, Mr. Mu, what you mean is that when there is a major change in the harem in the future, I can stand by the princess and help."

Judging from the current situation, the queen is already hostile to the king.

Although the queen now has the king's handle, the king has tolerated her, and has not reached the point of meeting each other.

But the two are already incompatible with each other, and sooner or later they will get to the point of death and death.

The king has country Y as the pillar, but the queen is not inferior, with country L as the backing.

Moreover, the queen and the current king of L country not only brought relatives, but their private relationship was also quite good.

If the king and her come to the point where they meet each other, the queen will definitely seek help from the L country.

At that time, war will inevitably be provoked.

If she finally meets the King Weapon, one can imagine what a farce this is.

Mu Jingchen thought far-reaching, in order to avoid this happening, let Lin Ze inform the duchess in advance, hoping that she can help the king at a critical time.

At this moment, he said bluntly: "Yes."

The duchess was embarrassed.

"Mr. Mu, I really want to help you, but I'm afraid it's powerless.

The queen is good at winning people's hearts, and now the prince has become the heir, and among the ministers of the DPRK, I am afraid that many people are approaching her.

Although my husband holds part of the military power, his power is small after all. The queen has not only the support of ministers, but also L country as a pillar.

In addition, the successive kings of the L country have been ambitious. When the first king was alive, the two countries continued a year-long war due to territorial issues.

Later, because of the marriage of the king and the queen, the two countries quelled the war for so many years, but I heard that the country L has been preparing for war privately.

It can be seen that the current king of country L is not satisfied with the status quo, and it is hard to guarantee that this opportunity will be used against country Y.

If this is the case, it is far from enough to have a single soldier in my husband's hands. Mr. Mu must make more long-term plans to ensure that nothing goes wrong. "

What she said was exactly what Mu Jingchen was worried about now.

If the queen breaks the tank and directly provokes the war, and holds the handle of Feng Suying in his hand, will the king have a 100% chance of winning by then?

The duchess saw his concerns and suddenly said: "However, Mr. Mu, I may not be able to help you, but if you want to keep the princess safe in this struggle, I have a way."

Mu Jingchen looked at her: "What?"

The duchess stepped forward two steps, approached his ear, and whispered in his ear a few times.

After Mu Jingchen listened, there was a suspicious look in his eyes.

"Sure?"

Seeing the suspicion in his eyes, the Duchess smiled and said: "Mr. Mu, the reason why you asked me to bring that finger to me for help should also know the meaning of that finger. What I said is true or false. Give it a try."

Mu Jingchen stared at the finger on his thumb, his eyes gradually darkened.



Chang'an Temple.

When Mu Jingchen returned here, he told Huangfu Liyue that he had to go to the far door.

She was very surprised, and asked: "Away? Now?"

Mu Jingchen nodded.

"right."

"So suddenly, is there something urgent?"

For her questioning, Mu Jingchen glanced around subconsciously.

Seeing Yi Ran and several maids by his side, he replied: "Well, the company has something urgent to deal with temporarily."

"This is too sudden."

Huangfu Liyue noticed something wrong.

Now is the time when the father needs their assistance. Isn't he confused about the priorities at this time to deal with the company's affairs?

But when you think about it carefully, he has always done things steadily, and would not make such a decision if he hadn't thought about it carefully.

Mu Jingchen saw the doubts in her heart, and said gently: "Don't worry, I will come back as soon as possible on the day of the death of the king."

She naturally understood the hint in his words.

On the day of the death of the king, the underground palace will be opened. At that time, they will have the opportunity to go in and search.

"Well, you go early and return early."

"Ok."

Before leaving, he gently wrapped her around her and hugged her in his arms.

Seeing this, the maids in the hall bowed their heads.

He lowered his head slightly, with his thin lips close to her ears, and said in a low voice: "Remember, before I come back, don't act rashly, even if there is any movement from the queen."

The voice was barely audible, no one could hear it except her.

Huangfu Liyue gave a light "um".

After the two said goodbye, Mu Jingchen greeted several children again.

After that, he left the Chang'an Temple directly.

He walked in such a hurry, Huangfu Liyue sensed something was wrong, but didn't have the opportunity to inquire deeply.

Seeing him leave, she was also thinking in her mind, what the **** did he do?

After her thoughts were fruitless, she was a little worried about her father.

All day long, there was no movement from the father's side, and the queen didn't seem to be angry at knowing that they were investigating their mother privately.

All this is too abnormal.

She was worried about the father in her heart, so she went directly out of the Chang'an Temple to find the father.



The king at the moment is closing his eyes in the back garden and taking a nap.

When Huangfu Liyue came here, he found that Richard was standing behind his father without leaving.

"Father."

She walked over and greeted her father if nothing had happened.

Richard looked alert when he saw her.

The queen has told him that he must never let the king be alone with anyone, especially Huangfu Liyue.

At this moment, the king slowly opened his eyes.

Seeing Huangfu Liyue's arrival, he glanced at Richard and said: "You go down first, I have a few words with Nuo Xi."

Richard naturally refused to leave, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the Queen has ordered that you are not in good health and you must take care of it every step of the way."

The king sneered, looking at Richard with sullen eyes.

"Richard, my king hasn't abdicated yet, so I'm telling you not to move?"

Aware of the murderous in the eyes of the king, Richard did not dare to move out of the queen anymore, so he could only retreat obediently.
