Because of the two orders, the Prince An's Palace became restless. On the other side, the Prince Mu’s Palace was also in a similar situation.

Prince Mu had already sent off the eunuch who gave the decree, and when he turned around and returned to the residence, his thick eyebrows tightly knitted together.

"What does the emperor's imperial edict mean?"

He shouted at his son, his eyes wide and terrifying at first glance.

However, Mu Junhan did not take his vicious appearance to heart. Instead, the corner of his mouth hooked up into a playful and disrespectful smile.

"The Emperor wanted to take back the military power in your hands, so he found a reason to send me to gather troops."

Who didn't understand the emperor's thoughts, but did he care about the military power?

The Prince Mu's tiger's eyes widened even more as he angrily looked at his unruly son. "The Emperor wants to reclaim the military power, but he has a way. Why did he let you go to the Mo Bei to be a vice general?"

That Mo Bei is rioted by bandits all year round, so it's not a good place.

When Prince Mu thought about this, the frown between his eyebrows became even tighter.

He had been married to an imperial concubine for so many years, yet he only had this one son. No matter how much Mu Junhan refused to be taught, no matter how much he stomped his feet in anger, he was still his only son. If something were to happen to him, his Prince Mu’s Palace would be considered to have been severed!

Mu Junhan raised his eyebrows slightly, a carefree expression hung on his face. "Who knows why the emperor wants to send me to the Mo Bei. Who dares to guess the emperor's intentions?"

"Stop putting on an act for me!" Prince Mu was so angry that his beard was blown, anger rising in his large eyes, "You stayed in the palace for so long, did you not do anything?"

Although he did not have the intention to rebel, the current situation was extremely grim. For the sake of the safety of the Prince Mu’s Palace, he had no choice but to place his own men in the palace.

As soon as Mu Junhan went into the palace to look for the emperor, his men returned to spread the news.

The Prince Mu was very worried. He thought that Mu Junhan had only gone to the palace to see the empress dowager, but the emperor's decree had made him understand that the brat must have said something in front of the emperor to have caused the emperor to give out such a decree.

"I can't change the emperor's mind." Mu Junhan's expression did not change. "Your majesty has already suspected our Duke Palace for a long time, but you haven't found the opportunity to make a move against us. "It would be better to just give the emperor a chance and let him take back the military power. Only then will he feel at ease, Royal Father, you don't need to be so worried that the emperor will find a reason to take over the estate."

"Brat, what nonsense are you spouting?" Prince Mu's thoughts were exposed, and he became angry from embarrassment. He fiercely glared at his son and said, "The current emperor is a benevolent king, he wouldn't do something like framing an official."

As for whether the emperor could actually do that, the Prince Mu didn't know. But in front of Mu Junhan, he had to maintain the image of the Emperor.

Mu Junhan nodded his head, but he did not believe the words of the Prince Mu at all, "Royal Father, you are right. The current emperor is a benevolent ruler, so he sent me to the Mo Bei as a deputy general.

Previously, the one who suspected the Emperor of being meticulous was the Prince Mu, but the one speaking up for the Emperor now was still him.

Prince Mu choked, wanting to swallow his own words back into his mouth. This brat was clever, arguing with him, if not careful, he would forgive him.

"No matter what happens, you must not enter this Mo Bei!"

In the Prince Mu's heart, a person like Mu Junhan who had grown up in the capital could not bear such a cold and bitter place like Mo Bei.

Mu Junhan looked up, his eyes carrying a rare serious expression. "Going to the Mo Bei was something I brought up to the emperor. Royal father, it's useless no matter how much you object."

This brat was finally telling the truth!

The Prince Mu was so angry that he laughed out loud, pointing at his son. "You are begging the emperor to let you lead the troops into the Mo Bei? What qualifications do you, who have never fought in a battlefield or experienced a war, have to take on a soldier? "

His words were extremely rude, "Back then, the first time I went to the battlefield, I was by your grandfather's side. I studied for three whole months before daring to lead troops by myself. "Since you were a child, you've been surrounded by the Emperor in the capital. Although you have some skills, that skill of yours can block thousands of soldiers and horses, but you can still block open and dark arrows?"

The sternness in Prince Mu's words was because he was worried for his son's safety.

Mu Junhan's face became serious and his eyes became pitch-black and his thoughts could not be seen clearly. She said in a heavy tone, "Royal father, you saw clearly what kind of attitude your majesty has towards our Duke Palace. The Prince An's Palace is just our future marriage, so the Seventh Prince attacked them, but luckily he did not have any evidence on this matter, and left this matter at that. But if we do not let the emperor take back the military power, he will definitely make a move against the Duke's Mansion. At that time, if we aren't prepared in the slightest, won't we be at the mercy of the Emperor? "

"Then I'll go to court tomorrow and find an excuse to hand over the military authority to the emperor. He should be relieved now, right?" Prince Mu had long since figured out what the emperor was thinking, but he had taken the military power from the Old Marquis's hands. It would be more painful for him to hand it over obediently than cutting off his flesh.

However, compared to his son's life, the military power was nothing.

"With Royal Father's understanding of the Emperor, if you hand over the military power, would the Emperor let down his guard?"

Mu Junhan asked indifferently, completely extinguishing all the good fortune in his father's heart.

The reason they were facing the current situation was because of the Emperor's suspicion.

If he were to hand over the military power, the Emperor would believe that he had no ill intentions.

Seeing the Prince Mu sink into silence, only then did Mu Junhan speak, "Your Majesty is suspicious of his nature. Royal father, if you were to hand over the military power, he would also suspect that you might still have your own troops and horses in the shadows. Now that things are like this, the Emperor thinks that he is scheming against us, but he has no idea that I am scheming against him as well. "

His eyes were bright, and the smile at the corner of his mouth was meaningful.

Prince Mu's eyes lit up, with some hope in his eyes, "You have a way?"

"Naturally, as long as I go to the Mo Bei, the Emperor will be at ease."

This brat had brought the matter back to normal!

Prince Mu puffed his beard and glared, "Whatever you say, you just want to go to the Mo Bei!"

"It's not that I want to go to the Mo Bei, it's that the emperor wants me to go to the Mo Bei." Mu Junhan placed his hands behind his back and looked in the direction of the palace, "The emperor wanted to take back the military power from royal father, but he was afraid that doing so too much would cause the court to be displeased, so he sent me to the Mo Bei as a deputy general and sent another General Da to take charge of the military power. This way, he will be able to smoothly regain his military power, and will not arouse anyone's disapproval. "

"But Father, think about it. The Emperor's plan was to let the people he sent to outdo me. But what if he wasn't the one the Emperor sent to be loyal to?"

The corner of Mu Junhan's lips curled up slightly, his pitch-black phoenix eyes were filled with confidence.
