Chapter 44： Toast each other and wish Pengcheng,

When Juesheng Yanliu was full of the imperial capital, the Ministry of Rites selected auspicious dates and announced to the world: the fifth prince was named king, and he was given the title of Su, and the seventh prince was named the king and given the title of virtuous.

Seven days later, the wise king Fu Ji set up a banquet in the palace of the prince, and all officials came to congratulate him.

Mu Zhiming went with his father to congratulate him. The carriage had not yet reached the Wangye's mansion, and it could no longer go an inch farther. All the streets were full of red lanterns, lit up with lights, the doors were like a city, and the guests were like clouds.

Wen Heyin, who was following Mu Zhiming, was speechless: "What a big fight."

Mu Zhiming said: "Everyone knows that His Royal Highness King Xian has been favored by the emperor since childhood, and it is not surprising that the place is full of high friends.

Although there were many carriages and horses outside the palace, the house was in good order. As soon as Yan Guo’s carriage arrived at the gate of the mansion, a servant immediately stepped forward to invite Mu Boren and Mu Zhiming to enter the mansion, and Wen Heyin, as a guard, could only Go to the side courtyard to wait, can not follow to the main hall.

Passing through the elegant and winding corridors, I saw lush green trees, flowing pills in flying pavilions, and strange flowers and stones. Finally, Mu Boren and Mu Zhiming met Fu Ji'an on the second floor of the banquet attic of the mansion.

The little prince is no longer the little baby who was dragged by Mu Zhiming's ears and still shouting if I can sleep a little longer. Today, he is full of high-spirited spirit, and the dragon's brain is full of fragrance. Everyone in the world calls him Tianshanglang. "Yan Guogong! You are here!" Seeing the Mu family father and son, the little prince immediately smiled. "His Royal Highness Xian Wang." Mu Boren saluted and sincerely congratulated after the greeting.

Fu Ji'an was courteous and responded with every sentence, and then called his servants to lead Mu Boren to sit down at the main table of the banquet, and told him not to be neglected.

As soon as Mu Boren left, Mu Zhiming and Fu Ji'an were no longer bound by etiquette, and the little prince happily stepped forward and gave Mu Zhiming a hug: "Brother Mu, long time no see! You are willing to come back from the frontier."

"You are His Royal Highness King Xian now, so it's inappropriate to call me Brother Mu again?" Mu Zhiming pretended to be serious. "Okay, okay, then I'll call you a salute. Lord Shilang, is this the head office?" Fu Ji'an teased.

After speaking, the two looked at each other and laughed.

After a joke, Mu Zhiming thought of one of the purposes of this trip; reminding Fu Ji to protect the villain. In the previous life, after Fu Ji'an was named King Xian, the emperor ordered him to deal with the flood disaster in Qiongzhou in order to help him become famous.

After receiving the order, Fu Ji'an went to Qiongzhou in person. In order to save the people from suffering and hard work, he was conscientious and conscientious. Who would have thought that when he returned to Beijing to return to the command, someone had bribed his subordinates to tamper with the expenditure ledger, and was found out by the Ministry of Personnel. If it wasn't for the emperor's trust in Fu Ji'an , sent someone to Qiongzhou to investigate carefully, then the crime of embezzlement was about to fall on his head.

Mu Zhiming said: "I have something to tell you, can you spare some time for me?"

Seeing his serious appearance, Fu Ji'an knew that there was something very important, so he immediately invited Mu Zhiming to enter the quiet tea room of the cabinet and backed away.

The two sat face to face, Mu Zhiming opened his mouth and asked bluntly, "Did the emperor send you to Qiongzhou for disaster relief?"

Fu Ji'an was surprised and said with a smile: "Brother Mu, how did you know that? The father and emperor only talked to me about this this morning, and everything is still undecided!"

"The emperor valued you so much, and he would definitely send you to disaster relief. Since ancient times, disaster relief has been used to support corrupt officials, so you must see the money, accounts, expenditures, etc.! Furthermore, the people in the court are complicated and undercurrents are surging, so you have to keep your eyes open. , pay more attention to the villains around me who are plotting evil." Mu Zhiming said bitterly. "Thank you Brother Mu for your kind words, keep it in mind, I will review the ledger carefully, and don't give others the opportunity to take advantage of it." Fu Ji'an smiled, "But it's really strange, is there such a coincidence in the world? Brother Mu, what you said, Someone said the exact same thing to me today"

Mu Zhiming was slightly startled: "Who?"

Fu Ji'an smiled and said, "Brother Wu Huang, he also reminded me to pay attention to the money account for disaster relief. He also said that we should be careful and watch out for accompanying officials."

Mu Zhiming was instantly stunned, and a thought emerged in his heart, because it was so terrifying that the blood in his whole body coagulated, like a thorn in the back.

Could it be that Fu Yi was really reborn?

"Brother Mu, what's wrong with you?" Seeing his face suddenly pale, Fu Ji'an asked in confusion, "What happened?"

"...It's okay." Mu Zhiming took a deep breath, suppressed the horror in his heart, looked at Fu Ji'an with a complicated expression, and said after thinking, "Jian, you have been favored by the emperor since you were young, and you have a concubine who is dedicated to protecting you. You are innocent and ignorant of world affairs, but the human heart is complicated, and the tricks are so treacherous, you must pay more attention, and the heart of guarding against others is indispensable!"

Fu Ji'an sighed: "Brother Mu, I actually understand what you said."

Recalling the dusty past, his eyes dimmed, and his hands clenched his fists: "On the cold winter day when I was six years old, I have already seen the sinister heart, and I will never forget that scene."

Mu Zhiming said softly, "You are six years old, Bitter Winter Yuanri..., what you said was about falling into the water?"

"Yes!" Fu Ji'an raised his head, "It's exactly what happened to Brother Wuhuang who fell into Qinxin Lake!"

Mu Zhiming had only heard a little about what happened in that year. He heard that the emperor held a wedding banquet in the imperial garden on the first day of the Spring Festival. At that time, the princes were all young, laughing and playing by the Qinxin Lake. Who knew that the fifth prince, Fu Yi, accidentally fell into the water. , it was the imperial concubine who recklessly jumped into the icy lake and rescued him.

Later, Fu Yi became seriously ill and had a high fever. Wu Jieyu's medical treatment and medicine were all treated indifferently. Later, the noble concubine took their mother and son to Fengyi Palace and took care of them carefully before pulling Fu Yi back from the gate of hell.

Mentioning this matter, Fu Ji'an clapped the table angrily: "I saw it at the time! Brother Wu Huanggen. It wasn't accidental falling into the water, it was Prince Fu Qi who pushed him into the water!"

One word shook the world, tearing apart the humble hypocrisy of the brothers, and spreading the blood of the sinister people.

"And on that day, the guards were all there, and when they saw someone falling into the water, they only shouted at the lake and didn't go to rescue. If it wasn't for my mother and concubine's ability to swim, Wu Huangxiong would have been long ago..." Fu Ji'an became sick. He frowned, "I also know that Fu Qi originally wanted to push me into the water that day! He just accidentally pushed the wrong person!"

"Later, the emperor clearly noticed the clue, but he didn't want to go into it, so I buried this matter deeply in my heart and didn't mention it again." Actually, I know everything."

Mu Zhiming looked at Fu Ji'an, and then realized that he underestimated His Royal Highness King Xian. For Fu Ji'an, the emperor's favor has always been not only a blessing, but also a series of iron hoops and pressures. Since ancient times, the emperor's family has been ruthless. In the deep palace, openly and secretly, how many pairs of eyes are staring at him and the noble concubine. Be careful like a mirror, the fire of jealousy can burn them to the bone!

Having said that, I don't dare to delve into it any more. The two of them use honor instead of wine and toast each other.
