After wearing the book, the regent quit.

Chapter 18

Breathing stagnantly, Shen Mu was caught off guard and fell into Xiao Fan's deep eyes.

The same sentence, when the young man said it not long ago, his eyes dodged, but now he met his eyes without avoiding it.

Curling up his fingertips and sweeping lightly between his palms, Shen Mu's mind suddenly went blank, unable to utter a word of loyalty.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that no words could respond to the weight of Xiao Fan's words.

Xiao Fan didn't seem to ask for an answer. After speaking, he turned his head and looked down at Liu En who was trembling under the high platform and Gao Ying who had passed out, and said in a cold voice without anger, "Liu En, you still don't know what to do?" Have something to say."

These words were no different from ordering death, the fat man knelt down and kowtowed vigorously to Xiao Fan again and again, begging for mercy.

Bright red stars soon appeared on the gray and white stone ground, Shen Mu frowned in disgust, only to hear Xiao Fan speak again, "There are also those who want to deal with this matter seriously—"

"Your Majesty," the Empress Dowager, who had stood silently by the side for a long time, suddenly interrupted Xiao Fan's words in a calm tone, "Today is the Empress Dowager's cremation ceremony, please let your majesty let him go at ease."

Xiao Fan's Gujing Wubo's voice sounded like a thousand-year cold pool, "Then according to the empress dowager's intention, the empress dowager can rest in peace after letting go of the murderer who stole Wu Jinyou?"

The queen mother stared at her phoenix eyes, choked and speechless.

"Your Majesty," Shen Mu took a step forward, and politely stopped him, "Today is the day for the cremation of the Empress Dowager, so let's send the old man away first."

Xiao Fan gave him a deep look sideways, without asking why, "Are you sure about Father Ya?"

This is clearly the best moment for revenge.

Shen Mu nodded in response; with Xiao Fan's temperament, the disobedient officials might not escape death; although he didn't intend to let it go, but killing people and seeing blood during mourning is a taboo, no matter how many reasons Xiao Fan has, Public executions in ceremonies can cause popular discontent.

He didn't want Xiao Fan to be reprimanded again.

"Okay," Xiao Fan didn't hesitate, "It's all up to you."

The young man was deep and magnetic like a small hammer, and every word was knocked on Shen Mu's ear, causing his earlobe to feel hot for no reason.

Slightly taken aback, Shen Mu retreated two steps behind Xiao Fan, couldn't help but raised his hand and rubbed the red earlobe, watching Liu Gao and the two being taken away by Jing Fan.

The ceremony was complicated and long, and the people who listened to the endless chanting and prayers were drowsy; the big men brought more than a dozen barrels of Orgonian oil and poured them on the burning grass. Float to the southwest.

From the corner of the eye, she unconsciously looked at the back of the young man. For some reason, standing behind Xiao Fan, Shen Mu felt a faint sense of loneliness and depression.

In his impression, Xiao Fan's expression of emotion has always been forceful, tough and somewhat jerky; but the few short sentences just now were clearly deliberate.

Especially the last sentence "It's all up to you", even let Shen Mu hear a trace of helpless connivance as if delusional.

...so foul.

Racking his brains, he couldn't remember which sentence made Xiao Fan's attitude change drastically. Shen Mu endured the whole ceremony with some uneasiness, and was about to leave the palace with all the officials after it was over. And Xiao Fan called to live.

"The old man was reckless yesterday, and he offended His Majesty and the Lord Regent."

Shen Mu looked at Yang Che, sighing in his heart; the black-haired man gave away the white-haired man, and a general with one enemy to one hundred turned gray overnight; after the truth was revealed just now, the man seemed to have aged ten years in an instant, his face A gray and white color.

The old general was determined to resign from the position of the general. Shen Mu thought that if he left, no one would fight against the Japanese pirates for Daqi, so he couldn't help but persuade him; Xiao Fan agreed and settled the matter.

But thinking that Yang Che has served Daqi for many years, Xiao Fan promised to hold a banquet to see Yang Che off before he leaves Beijing, that is, tonight, and he will thank him for his protection for more than ten years on behalf of the people of Daqi, and Shen Mu will also join him accompany.

It was still early, and Shen Mu figured that the hairpin had already been sent to the capital, so he set off first and returned to the palace; but after returning to the mansion, Ah Qing told him that the person who had promised to sell the hairpin to him suddenly changed his mind and said Two more days to think about it.

Putting the book in his hand on the table with a snap, Shen Mu slowly frowned, feeling displeased.

The other party knew that he was distinguished and generous, but he was hesitant to wear this hairpin, there must be something wrong with it.

"Ah Qing dare to ask." The curiosity in Ah Qing's eyes was almost overflowing, and she blinked her big watery eyes, "That hairpin is very ordinary, why does the prince have to get it?"

Because this hairpin is the only thing that can prove that Xiao Fan's biological mother existed in this world.

There are very few descriptions of this mother in the book, and Shen Mu only knows that she is "gentle, weak and sickly". When Xiao Fan was not yet the sixth prince, she accompanied him through a difficult but warm childhood.

Later, she became seriously ill, and the young Xiao Fan couldn't make enough money to buy medicines, so he had to pawn off the valuables at home and sell them to make ends meet.

This hairpin is the only one in the book whose appearance and characteristics are described, and it was also found by Xiao Fan more than ten years after the woman passed away.

The mother's memorial day is just a few days later, Shen Mu wanted to find the hairpin for Xiao Fan before that.

Before the sun set, the palace sent a steady stream of news, without exception, they were beheaded, executed or suspended or demoted.

The young monarch still maintains his aggressive and decisive style of action. Xiao Fan didn't spare any of the more than [-] court ministers who wrote to impeach Shen Mu together with Gao Ying, and punished them one by one without mercy.

It is really worthy of his sentence on the high platform, "Shen Mu will not be wronged in this matter".

Shen Mu looked at the secret document sent out from the palace, and was silent for a long time.

When entering Mingcheng Palace again, the afterglow was just right, and the setting sun slanted across the sky, covering the whole sky with a layer of crimson gold powder.

Said it was a farewell banquet, the three of them seemed to have no appetite for the whole table full of Chinese and Chinese; Shen Mu's diet has always been light, and the big fish and meat on the table are too greasy for him; Drinking sake one after another.

Xiao Fan still had the same neither salty nor bland appearance during the day, he didn't say much and didn't eat a few mouthfuls of food.

Yang Che drank too much wine on an empty stomach, and he became a little drunk after a while; the man's eyes were red, and he cursed people with dirty words, and chanted his daughter's nickname, and finally grabbed Shen Mu's hand beside him, and repeatedly talked to him. He apologized.

Regarding Yang Shu's death, Shen Mu still felt guilty, so she couldn't bear to drink a few drinks with Yang Che, and let others hold her hand.

The farewell banquet became a real "one-table banquet", with more than a dozen dishes not moving much, but the drinks were brought up continuously; so that when Yang Che got up to leave the banquet, even the drunk people couldn't stand still.

Watching Jing Wen being ordered to help him out, Shen Mu let out a long breath with his shoulders slumped, smelling the lingering alcohol smell in the air, he frowned unconsciously.

After a busy day, fatigue gradually came up, Shen Mu leaned on the table and turned his body sideways, got up and wanted to say goodbye to Xiao Fan, but he didn't expect that his legs were numb after sitting for too long, and his legs became limp involuntarily when he got up for a moment.

Holding his arm firmly with a big hand, Xiao Fan finally took the initiative to say a word to him tonight, "...drunk?"

Shaking his head in denial, Shen Mu took a step back and wanted to withdraw his forearm from Xiao Fan's hand, but fell back to his seat unsteadily again, his head shook, and the things in front of him also began to shake.

Never expecting this wine to have such strong aftertaste, Shen Mu smiled wryly, supported his dizzy head, and apologized to Xiao Fan, "Your Majesty, please slow down for a while."

I planned to leave for a while, but the vertigo surged uncontrollably, my brain was chaotic and my senses were also blunted, and Xiao Fan's whispered voice was a little blurry.

Slightly lowering his head, Shen Mu clenched the armrest with his sweaty right palm, and forced a smile; he felt that the scene was a bit awkward, so he took the initiative to say in a daze, "Your Majesty today—"

A porcelain cup was steadily pushed into his hand, the wall of the cup was warm, and he instinctively retracted his fingers comfortably, but accidentally touched the knuckle of the index finger of the other hand.

The hand that handed over the teacup was too good-looking, with distinct joints and roots like bamboo, Shen Mu unconsciously took a second look, but the owner of the hand asked him in a displeased tone, "Didn't you already put a heater in the hall?" , why are your hands still so cold?"

"Is it because your Majesty is unhappy about this, that's why he didn't talk to the minister all night?"

When handing over the teacup, the owner of the hand leaned forward slightly, the sandalwood scent mixed with the clear wine scent was even more domineering; dizzy, Shen Mu only felt that every time he took a breath, the apex of his heart trembled.

Without waiting for anyone to answer, he shook his head self-consciously, "No, His Majesty is not happy during the day."

The foreground began to shake again, Shen Mu shook his head vigorously, and couldn't remember what he said yesterday after searching his stomach; so he put down the teacup, moved closer to the source of the fragrance, looked at the gradually enlarged face in front of him, Blinking his eyes slowly twice, he paused word by word,

"But I can't figure it out, what does Your Majesty care about what the minister said?"

In order to see the person opposite him clearly, he grasped the armrests with both hands and leaned forward, two of the four stool legs were hanging in the air; before he finished speaking, Shen Mu saw that beautiful hand supporting the chair, and at the same time, a sound rang in his ears. A hoarse male voice,

"Gu was just thinking about what kind of mood Yafu was feeling when he talked about 'not a good death' with Gu yesterday—!"

With his right hand resting lightly on the other big hand, Shen Mu casually compared the length of his fingers, and raised his eyes just to meet a pair of dark eyes that were slightly absent-minded.

The four eyes met, the hand under the palm suddenly tensed, Shen Mu patted the back of the hand softly, and asked a question softly,

"So Your Majesty felt sorry for the wronged minister, so he was depressed all day?"

Tuanzi pre-received Wenmeiren Shizun, his strategy was wrong [Crossing Book] Please collect it! !

Ruan Bo is transmigrated as the beauty master in the fairy tale novel, and the protagonist is his apprentice.

Like all protagonist masters, he will also experience a series of tragic fates such as failure of ascension, madness, deafness and blindness, and being imprisoned in a small black room by his apprentice.

Looking at the well-behaved protagonist who has not yet turned black, Ruan Bo decisively hugged the furry pet dumpling in his hand, very calm: hold on, don't panic, there is time.

In order to escape the ten-thousand-year curse of "either being suppressed or being killed", Ruan Bo sent someone to deliver medicine when his apprentice was injured, and Ruan Bo gave him remote guidance when his apprentice was hindered in his cultivation. Watch from a distance, don't give the apprentice any chance to close his little black room.

The only thing Ruan Bo has to do is to stay in the house, bathe, cook, and groom the soul pet dumpling every day, waiting for the day of ascension to come.

Everything went smoothly until Ruan Bo's ascension failed.

The protagonist's apprentice has not been blackened, but the fluffy dumpling that has been raised for more than half a year has suddenly turned into a human being, and has a face that is exactly the same as that of the demon king.

The weak Ruan Bo was carried onto the bed, and watched the young man lay down beside him, speaking in a low and lazy voice:

"Master's body is still so cold, why don't you let me warm you up."

Ruan Bo: "..."
