"I've heard that wangfei suddenly died last night. No matter what, she was chosen by me as my imperial concubine, so as a subject, I have to come and see her." Minhan Changyang said hypocritically, and went up to burn some incense.
"Since it's my imperial concubine, then let's take her away. It would be better if we handle the funeral." Minhan Changyang intentionally said these words, and secretly observed Mu Ying's expression.
"Envoy, thank you for your consideration. Although the emperor has granted her a marriage, she was still this king's main wife before she died. She hasn't written a letter of rest, so this funeral has to be handled by my Duke's Mansion." Mu Ying stopped Minhan Changyang and said with a dark expression.
"Uh, since Your Highness says so, then there's nothing wrong with it. But no matter what, I should take a look at the princess' appearance. to express my desire to comfort him. " As Minhan Changyang spoke, he went to the other side and knocked on the coffin, and then extended his hand out to lift the lid.
"Envoy!" Mu Ying flashed to Minhan Changyang's side at an extremely fast speed and blocked his hand.
Minhan Changyang secretly used all his strength to block off Mu Ying's arm.
However, Mu Ying pressed down on the coffin board, and remained motionless. His entire arm was locked onto the coffin board like a boulder.
This Minhan Changyang was originally a famous general of the comfort zone, his martial arts was also first-rate. Faced with Mu Ying's provocation, he was naturally unwilling to fall behind. He extended his left and right hands, confronting Mu Ying with his right, while his left was about to move the coffin.
At the same time, Mu Ying also extended his left hand and blocked his attack. The two fought back and forth for a long time. In the end, Minhan Changyang did not fall at all, the coffin did not even budge an inch, and Mu Ying's body did not even move an inch.
"I thought this Xue Moyun was an expert, but I didn't expect her martial arts to be even more profound than hers. As expected of the great generals of the conquest who have been famous for a long time. Minhan Changyang secretly said in her heart.
Although he really wanted to fight with Mu Ying, he had something important to do first, and that was to see if Xue Moyun was truly dead.
Therefore, Minhan Changyang did not continue interacting with Mu Ying. Instead, he changed his expression and said: "What, I want to see the imperial concubine's face. Since even the Duke wants to stop her, could it be that there is some unspeakable secret?"
Although Minhan Changyang had a high level of martial arts, he preferred to use his mouth to defeat others.
However, when Mu Ying heard him, his expression did not change: "There are no secrets hidden from me, and I am not trying to stop the envoy. I only wanted to remind you, the dead are big, please respect them a little and do not beat around the bush and disturb her." When Mu Ying said this, why did his heart hurt so much?
After Minhan Changyang heard his words, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he recovered his old face: "I did indeed offend you just now, can I look at it now?"
Hearing Minhan Changyang's words, Mu Ying let go of his hand and used a bit of force to push the coffin lid to the back, revealing half of the person inside.
Mu Ying took a few steps back and stretched out his hand.
Minhan Changyang cupped his hands at Mu Ying and walked forward.
Inside the coffin, Xue Moyun was lying down quietly. Her hands were crossed in front of her, and her black hair was scattered down to her sides. Her eyelashes were long and slender, casting a shadow before her eyes. Her long and narrow almond eyes were tightly shut, and her snow-white skin could be easily broken by the wind. Her brows were tightly knitted, and it seemed as if there was an endless amount of worry contained within them.
This was the first time Minhan Changyang saw her at such a close distance. Although she lay still, he was more beautiful than anything else in the world.
From the moment Minhan Changyang saw her, he could no longer keep his eyes open. His mind kept repeating Xue Moyun's every frown and smile; Now, looking at her sorrowful face, even 'sleeping' was so unhappy. He really wanted to pacify her worries and let her have a peaceful life.
As he looked at her, he suddenly felt suspicious of his purpose in life. Previously, he wanted to unify the world. But now, he wanted to be together with this person and give her happiness.
Even he didn't think that he would have such strong feelings for someone he had only met a few times. They began to doubt their own goals in life.
As he thought about it, he actually started to reach out his hand, wanting to touch Xue Moyun's face.
"What do you want to do?" At this time, Mu Ying who had his back facing Minhan Changyang was worried, he turned around and realised that Minhan Changyang was just about to reach out and touch Xue Moyun's face, he immediately grabbed his hand, her face full of sullenness.
"I... I just wanted to touch the temperature. " Minhan Changyang explained with an unchanged expression.
"The wangfei is suffering from an ill disease, envoys be careful not to spread the infection." Mu Ying said righteously.
"Oh, then forget it." Minhan Changyang retracted his hand, thinking that he had really lost control of himself earlier, and had almost been rude towards Xue Moyun.
"Since the envoy has confirmed, I will close the coffin." Mu Ying said as he pushed the coffin's lid, causing it to immediately close tightly.
Mu Ying and Minhan Changyang walked over, looking like they were about to send their guests off, but Minhan Changyang had burned some paper in front of them. He didn't seem to want to leave at all, instead, he stayed behind.
"Since the envoy has already been appraised, and the cubic evil has already spread far and wide, we should not stay any longer. Please leave as soon as possible." Mu Ying couldn't wait to send Minhan Changyang off so he could wake Xue Moyun up.
The corner of Minhan Changyang's mouth lifted slightly, but he actually lifted his skirt and sat down: "No matter what, she is still our imperial concubine, we are subjects, and there is a need to be completely loyal to his. How about we temporarily borrow your Duke's Palace for a while, and when tomorrow's funeral is over, I'll go back."
Hearing Minhan Changyang's words, Mu Lingfeng was secretly happy in his heart. He raised his head to see how angry Mu Ying was. Whether it was Xue Moyun faking his death to become true or Mu Ying being forced to admit that it was a person faking his death, the two of them would not be able to escape death.
When Mu Ying and the others heard Minhan Changyang's words, their hearts skipped a beat. They never thought that Minhan Changyang would be so troublesome to deal with, and since he had already reached such a stage, he did not give up. He would rather waste his time on a dead person.
If it was not because he was smart and had his suspicions, then it was because he had already seen through Mu Ying's plan.
"Could someone have leaked it?" Mu Ying began to doubt it in his heart.
He looked around and saw many people present, but he could not find anyone he was suspicious of. He recalled that the people who knew about this were all from the West Cold, so no one should be so daring as to go and snitch.
"He probably doesn't know yet and is only testing me." Mu Ying thought as he looked at Minhan Changyang.
"Since envoy has a piece of sincerity, please do as you wish." Mu Ying said as he walked towards the rear hall.
Since Minhan Changyang wanted to stay, Mu Lingfeng and the rest of the officials also stayed behind. Only Mu Zhuoshi came over to report the situation.
"What, this Minhan Changyang is actually so hard to deal with, he wants to force Mo Yun to a dead end?" After Mu Zheng heard this, he was extremely furious.
"Yeah, if you still refuse to accept the antidote tomorrow, this Xue Moyun will definitely die, but if you let her take the medicine, then it will definitely expose our plans." Mu Zhuoshi was also furious.
"This King has already tolerated them. If you continue to be arrogant and arrogant like this, This King can't care so much. I'll just start a war with them!" Mu Zheng's eyes suddenly released a blazing rage, the anger he had accumulated during this period of time erupted.
"Calm your anger, royal father." Mu Zhuoshi detected Mu Zheng's rage and quickly kneeled down to persuade him, "This consoling matter has caused so much trouble just to start a war. West Cold was currently in the process of developing his people. He was not as strong as them, so it would not be good for him to go head to head with them. "Yueying is at a disadvantage. Once they have passed this period of time, we will naturally have a day to vent our anger."
Mu Zhuoshi maintained his clarity of mind and advised Mu Zheng rationally.
Sure enough, after hearing what Mu Zhuoshi said, Mu Zheng gradually suppressed his anger and sat down.
After calmly thinking for a while, he began to feel that something was not right. Minhan Changyang seemed to be leading them around as he saw through everything. He guessed that there must be a traitor in West Cold.
"I don't believe that Minhan Changyang is that smart. Someone must have snitched on him."
"Ah, who dares to be so bold?" Mu Zhuoshi was surprised and angry at the same time.
"For now, I don't know. I'll leave this to you to investigate first. You must find out what happened!" Mu Zheng ordered.
"Yes, your son will obey."
"Don't let this matter spread out for now. You want to go to the Prince's Mansion? If you have anything else, come and report to me as soon as possible." After Mu Zheng finished speaking, he returned to the Purple Jade Palace.
Seeing Mu Zheng come back with a heavy heart, he must have heard about Minhan Changyang staying and not leaving.
"Now, as long as we move Mu Ying away, tomorrow, this Xue Moyun will definitely die." Zheng Ziyi thought with an evil smile.
Mu Ying walked to the back of the hall, and returned to his own room to rest. In fact, after closing the door, he suddenly punched the pillar in rage.
"This Minhan Changyang, he is simply going too far." Mu Ying was furious, if not for looking at the big picture, considering the future of West Cold, the safety of the people, he would have already killed Minhan Changyang.
"Your Highness." At this time, Wei Ming's voice sounded outside the door.
Mu Ying hurriedly opened the door and let Wei Ming in, "How is it, has Minhan Changyang left yet?"
"Nope." Wei Ming shook his head, "Not only did he not leave, a few emissaries even started staring at the coffin, afraid that the Madame would come back to life."
"Extremely hateful." Mu Ying angrily hammered on the table as he walked around the room.
After walking for a while, he couldn't sit still any longer, so he took his sword and was about to leave.
"Your Highness, you can't. If you act now, the consequences will be unimaginable. All that we have done is for naught. " Wei Ming hurriedly stopped Mu Ying.
Mu Ying glanced at Wei Ming, and then sat down angrily.
"Your Highness, there is still a long time until noon tomorrow. This subordinate believes that they will not be able to hold on for long." Wei Ming comforted Mu Ying.
"If they still have no intention of leaving by night, they must persist until tomorrow. "Then we'll just wait until midnight when they come and rescue the Madam in the middle of the night when they get tired." Wei Ming thought of an idea.
Mu Ying thought, this could also be considered as a solution, so he decided to wait for a while.
