"It seems that His Royal Highness, if you don't make a song, you will become a blockbuster." Su Mu turned the vase in his hand. Although he was a science student who didn't know how to appreciate cultural relics, he could still distinguish the vivid paintings of flowers, birds, insects and fish on it.of.

Liu Xiaoran frowned and asked in a low voice: "You mean..."

"King Ning's murder of Zhongliang is not a good person, but the crown prince has held the evidence for several years but has not revealed it, which shows that this matter is just a bargaining chip for him, a bargaining chip that can provide assistance when necessary." Su Mu put downHe took out the porcelain vase, lifted his robe, and sat across from Liu Xiaoran, "And now, it should be what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thinks—when it is necessary."

Facing Liu Xiaoran's gaze, Su Mu seemed a little uncomfortable, and turned his head slightly to the side.

"Does Yan Xuan think that I'm weird?"

Before waiting for an answer, Su Mu lowered his eyes, shaking his head and talking to himself slowly.

"It's clearly related to the grievance of my father's death in battle, but he can still say these words like a bystander, and even... hesitant to avenge his father."

If the original little Marquis were here, he would have had a good fight with himself.

The prince has already given the deal, as long as Su Mu reports the matter as a family member, the emperor will be nostalgic, seeing the old man's son, and thinking that the old man might be framed and died in battle, the thunder is inevitable, soAt that time, when the confessions of those corrupt party members came out again, King Ning could no longer get away, and the prince could sit firmly in the court, and no one could shake his position.

It seems that since this transaction can save them the time of arguing with the emperor, it is still difficult for a father to believe that his son is such a cruel and merciless person, but if he puts the old things together, he will get twice the result with half the effort, and... the prince seems to be sure to win this time, if he reaches a cooperation with him, then the prince will definitely provide protection in the future.The emperor is in poor health, and it is only a matter of time before the crown prince ascends the throne. With such a powerful backer, who can say that he is not moved.

but……

Su Mu couldn't believe the prince.

It has been dormant for many years without chaos, and it can be regarded as the right time. On the surface, it seems that the right to choose is given to Su Mu, but in fact, it is forcing Su Mu to make a quick decision. Such a city, compared to King NingNot necessarily bad.

With all the birds hidden, the blessing may not be true. In the end, he ended up implicating the Marquis Mansion, and he really felt ashamed to see the original owner.

Moreover, as a variable in this world, he harbors the deepest fear deep in his heart.

His every move may affect the development of the entire history. If... If the crown prince becomes a foolish king or a tyrant after ascending the throne, how should he face the people of the world?If the butterfly's wings are tilted, will everything after that be changed, and will the consequences of doing so cause more serious consequences.

He is just an ordinary person. A year ago, he was an ordinary high school student who was worried about whether he could go to college. He really couldn't figure out so many problems.

"You have your concerns." Liu Xiaoran's voice suddenly sounded, interrupting his thoughts.

"But Yu Zhi, I once said that no matter what happens..."

"Ok?"

"I will always be here." Liu Xiaoran sighed softly.

This is also the situation he was least willing to see. Being involved in this vortex where there is no right or wrong, everyone will only consider their own interests, and if they make a mistake, they will be lost forever, but now they are deeply trapped.Where, once you've shot the arrow, there's no getting it back.

As Su Mu said, King Ning is a cruel and cunning person, but the prince may not be a kind person at heart. Since the two sides have been fighting openly and covertly for many years, it means that they must not be ordinary people.

"The matter of Marquis An Ding is ultimately related to the Marquis Mansion itself. Since you are the master of Marquis Anding Mansion, you should make the decision. No one else can force you to do so."

Although this is the truth...

Su Mu put his head on his arm and closed his eyes.

But they are all heavy human lives. I have never done such a difficult multiple-choice question.

One side is the father, those innocent people who died, and the other side is the common people, which is the bloody storm that may be set off in the future.

Su Mu quietly opened his eyes, feeling a bit self-defeating.

"Let's deal with the matter at hand first."

In the past few days, the matter of military equipment corruption has come to light, and there are as many as a hundred officials involved. Naturally, Ji Xiao was so angry that he almost turned the table, and immediately ordered the three divisions to interrogate, which is bound to eliminate this disaster completely.Clean is good.

For this matter, Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice and Yushitai worked overtime for several days, and Su Mu, who was the leader at the beginning, gradually became more relaxed.The interrogation still needs to be handed over to a professional.

There are a lot of people to be interrogated, and the manpower of the three parties is obviously insufficient. When Su Mu was struggling with the letter in the house, the Dali Temple was so busy that even Lu Lingjue didn't have much time to rest. The adults on top,From Dali Sicheng to Dali Siqing, naturally there is no free time.

Su Mu walked in front of the table shaking his head for a long time. After he announced the identity of Mo Shu, Ji Xiao was not an emperor who could not afford to play with., and even ordered to thoroughly investigate the case of exterminating the family that year.

But there is still the same problem, the manpower is not enough, so it is only a blank check.

After Mo Shu left, Su Mu could only think about these profound issues by himself. When the storm was about to come, he seemed much calmer than before.

There are only a few major events in the history books about the change of dynasty, not to mention the minor fights between two brothers.

It's just such a small sum, but I don't even have the courage to write it down.

"Little Marquis, there is a girl looking for you outside." Ah Huan's voice sounded.

girl?

Su Mu made a move.

"Little Marquis?"

"Which girl is it?"

It's better not to get involved in any weird things now, it's not good if someone charges them with some messy crimes.

"That girl seems to say—that her surname is Liu."

Liu Luoxian?

Why is it her again?

Although Su Mu didn't have any unpleasant experiences with this Miss Liu, every time this Miss Liu appeared, it always seemed to bring an inexplicable awkward atmosphere.

Isn't she Liu Xiaoran's distant sister, what is she looking for?

"Let's just say that I'm not fit to see guests. I won't see you today. I'll apologize another day if I have a chance." He made a decisive decision.

"Yes." After Ah Huan agreed, she told Liu Luoxian unchanged.

A look of disappointment quickly appeared on the latter's pretty face, but he didn't make any fuss. He just looked back and took a deep look, then turned and left, and Ah Huan, who had finished talking, was biting A Ying quietly.Ears go back to life.

"Little Marquis, that girl has left!" Ah Huan came in with tea, and put down the teacup gently, still unable to hold back his curiosity.

The little marquis is so kind, presumably he wouldn't blame her for asking one more question.

"That girl looks a little sad."

"Huh?" Su Mu raised his eyes and frowned slightly.

"Little Marquis, seeing her like that, we feel...we feel...she seems to want to meet you very much." Ah Huan considered his words.

She remembered that a few days ago, Qin Anhe had mentioned intentionally or unintentionally that her child was already weak, and it was time to find a good marriage. If that was the case, she should share her worries for his wife and inquire about the girl's background.

"Who is this girl?"

"It's Liu Shaoqing's cousin." When Su Mu said it, he always felt a little weird, especially when coupled with Ah Huan's suddenly enlightened and somewhat delighted expression.

"It seems that she has a good background." Ah Huan summed up silently in her heart, "This girl's appearance is not to be picked, and her words are soft and pleasant. Isn't she the best seed for a young lady?"

While she was thinking secretly, Su Mu uttered a bit of doubt in distress: "That's right, it's not relative, so I don't know why you are looking for me?"

"Little Marquis, that girl, maybe she's interested in you?"

"What?" Su Mu almost dropped the teacup.

"Don't be annoyed, little Marquis, but Ah Huan can see it clearly, the girl's look is written on her face!"

"No." Su Mu categorically denied this possibility.

I've only seen it three times in total, so it wouldn't be such an exaggeration.

"But"

"No, no, it's definitely not like this." When Su Mu tried his best to prevent Ah Huan from diverging his thinking in this direction, his face also started to get hot, "That Ah Huan, I want to eat some snacks, help meGo and see what else is available, preferably peach blossom cakes or something, hurry up and go."

After receiving the order, Ah Huan naturally couldn't stay any longer, but seeing Su Mu's blushing expression, she ran out with a snickering smile, and replied from a distance: "Okay."

After walking out a few steps, she suddenly turned around again, "Little Marquis, it's been rumored outside that you have made great contributions, and you will be rewarded later. Madam said, I will take you to see her in the next year."Seeing the lady of Duke Qi's family, if little Marquis wants to belong, then there is no delay."

After speaking, she disappeared in a flash.

When the surrounding area finally calmed down, Su Mu felt that his state of mind was no longer as calm as before.

No, I'm only twenty!Only twenty!

But at this age in ancient times, it is indeed time to start a family—no, Liu Xiaoran hasn't even started a family yet!

And... how can it be possible that the heart belongs to something?

Su Mu tried hard to get rid of the familiar figure in his mind, but it seemed to be in vain. An inexplicable tension filled his chest, so that he felt his heartbeat was deafening.

"I don't have time to think about this kind of thing..." He sat down muttering, and forced himself to return to the power distribution map he had sketched. The paper full of lines was full of crosses, which shows his hard work these days.

With a tiger... seeking skin?
