    Chapter Index

    The staffer issued a post early in the morning, and after Mu Ziyan went to Cuiyun Xuan, she saw that the others had already arrived as well.

    “First cousin.” Qi Xue’er and Qi Yu’er have not been out of the mansion for a long time, and now that they see Mu Zi Yan, they are extraordinarily affectionate.

    Mu Zi Yan smiled lightly and stepped forward, “You look flushed, but something good has happened”

    Qi Xue’er did stumble upon a good thing this day, and now that she saw Mu Zi Yan, she followed suit and laughed, “It’s a happy thing.”

    “Tell me about it.” Mu Zi Yan said as she looked at her.

    “Does first cousin know about Mingyue Academy,” Qi Xue’er asked in a low voice as she held Mu Ziyan’s hand.

    “Since I know, Mingyue Academy is a women’s academy run by Princess Yuehua.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and responded.

    “Yes.” Qi Xue’er couldn’t hide her excitement, “I’ll go to Mingyue Academy next month.”

    “Oh,” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes slightly raised, “This is a happy event.”

    “Eldest cousin, are you going,” Qi Xue’er asked hurriedly.

    “I,” Mu Zi Yan shook her head, “Mingyue Academy is not for me.”

    “Eldest cousin, this Mingyue Academy selects ten women every three years, and these ten women are all rare talents from the famous families of the Great Amazing Country, and I heard that Second Miss Zhong has also been selected to enter.” Qi Xue’er continued, “Princess Yuehua has admired you.”

    “How could I not know about this matter” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyebrows and turned her eyes to Yun Xiang.

    Yunxiang hurriedly stepped forward and blessed herself, “Eldest Miss, this news the slave girl also just found out.”

    “First cousin, I also just got the news.” Qi Xue’er hurriedly held Mu Zi Yan’s hand, “Eldest cousin, are you really not going?”

    “I’ll think about it.” Mu Zi Yan pondered for a moment, “However, I did not expect this Second Miss Zhong to be selected.”

    “I heard that she offered a plan.” Qi Xue’er said as she looked at Mu Zi Yan.

    “Offer a plan,” Mu Zi Yan suddenly felt that her news was closed, originally thought that she had grasped all the news, how could she not know about Zhong Xuan’s offer of a plan?

    Yun Xiang also looked at Mu Zi Yan with a face of ignorance.

    Qi Xue’er continued, “That’s what I heard by hearsay on the way here.”

    “Oh.” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at Su Qin Rou and Hou Yi Yi, and after meeting her salute, the group sat down together.

    Just because they are acquaintances, so they are not formal, men and women sitting at the same table, but more than a few points of cordiality, such as Qi Xue’er has not yet spoken, it will see Zhang Zong and Lv Maiden also entered, which are complete, since Mu Zi Yan’s birthday, a lot of things have happened, the people have not been a good get-together, and now instead of re-gathering in one place, the people look at each other and smile.

    However, compared to the last time, nowadays, it could be considered as the achievement of two pairs of people, but instead, it made the atmosphere become more and more lively.

    Chapter metatarsal sitting on the side of the chapter Staffer, with the older one sitting at the top, Mu Lingxuan is the first, and after that, the woman is the right, the woman is the left, after the line is seated, Qi Xue’er will tell the story.

    “North in recent years there are bandits rampant, the emperor several times to send troops to besiege, because of the dangerous terrain, so has not been cleared, the bandits are self-established as a king, the local people are flattered that people as God, they also unknowingly formed a party force, naturally became the emperor’s heart.” Qi Xue’er looked at Mu Zi Yan said.

    “I know.” Mu Zi Yan looked at Qi Xue Er then said, “they are so rampant, because of the control of the local people, because of the remoteness of the terrain, so become a party of the hegemony, I remember that the head of the bandits is a young and promising young man, or the local famous talent, only so occupy the mountain as the king, in fact, is due to the incompetence of the local government, but also a corrupt official, the selfishness and greed of the money due to the local people are not enough to live, but also the talent home is not local gentry, but also considered a solid family, early years to participate in the imperial examination is also to return to the local welfare of the people. Make the local people do not want to live, the showman’s family is not local squire, but also counts the solid family, the early years to participate in the imperial examinations, but also in order to return to the local welfare of the people, Naihe, the sky does not comply with the wishes of man, there is a sister at home, is the local famous beauty, but was the local outside the occupation, but also the blood wash of his family, his sister was abused. After the abuse jumped well and died, that the outside collusion with the government, he sued without a door, but also was planted and framed into prison, he escaped, was forced to jump off a cliff to kill himself, did not expect to get back a life, this is in the mountains to do the robber’s hook.”

    “Eldest cousin, how do you know,” Qi Xue’er’s eyes flashed brightly as she looked at Mu Zi Yan and asked.

    “This person is a person of nature, doing so is also forced.” Mu Zi Yan continued, “I think Second Miss Zhong invited someone to go forward to recruit him.”

    “Exactly.” Qi Xue’er nodded her head in response.

    “That person was this scholar’s mentor back then, and is also the current Prime Minister.” Mu Zi Yan said faintly.

    “Not bad.” Qi Xue’er looked at Mu Zi Yan and only felt that she was too divine.

    “That scholar will beckon to surrender.” Mu Zi Yan lowered her eyes and said, “Zhong Xuan’s ploy is very useful, after all, no one wants to be a rebel, let alone a scholar who is well read in poetry, however, the scholar will end up in a miserable situation.”

    “Cousin, why do you say that” Qi Xuan looked at Mu Zi Yan and asked.

    “How could the emperor tolerate such a popular person to stay in the world” Mu Zi Yan sneered, “Zhong Xuan’s plan is to use the prime minister to persuade the recruitment of peace, and offer all kinds of conditions, and each of the conditions are exactly in the heart of the scholar, the scholar will agree, and so on, after the complete recruitment of peace, will be one by one to attack his power to eat up one by one until finally let him disappear without realizing it. forces, one by one, eating away at them, until finally letting him disappear without realizing it.”

    “It’s a good idea.” The Staffer responded in a warm voice, “But how did Cousin Zi Yan come up with this idea?”

    “This person I’m going to keep.” Mu Zi Yan said as she turned her eyes to look at him.

    “What are you going to do,” Mu Lingxuan said as he looked at Mu Zi Yan.

    Mu Zi Yan of course know, the previous life of this person is so utilized thoroughly, became Zhong Xuan’s stepping stone, and she is more because of the offer of the plan, and was valued by the emperor, and then succeeded in granting the marriage to the third prince, became the side consort of the third prince.

    “I need to think about it.” Mu Zi Yan didn’t intend to ruin Zhong Xuan’s plan, she wanted to let Zhong Xuan climb higher and fall harder, Zhong Xuan wanted to use this to raise herself up, then she didn’t let go of handing Zhong Xuan a ladder, just, how far this ladder went, that would have to be her call.

    “This person should not be underestimated.” Mu Lingxuan looked at Mu Ziyan, “Sister, you’re going to this Mingyue Academy”

    “Princess Yuehua admired it, so I have to go since.” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at Mu Ling Xuan, “Zhong Xuan going there must have her plans, since she has something in mind, I am going to go and take a look.”

    “Eldest cousin, is this Second Miss Zhong really this powerful” Qi Xue’er only felt that such a woman was too sinister and scary.

    Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and responded, “You will know in the future.”

    “En.” Qi Xue’er nodded her head in response.

    “Being able to enter the Mingyue Academy is a good thing, so today will be a celebration.” Zhang Staffer looked at the crowd’s somewhat gloomy expressions and then said.

    “Naturally it’s a happy event.” Mu Zi Yan then concurred, knowing that she did not come here today to talk about these heavy topics.

    “That’s not right, Sister Mu, where is Yi Yi and I” Su Qin Rou raised her eyes to look at the two of them and asked in dissatisfaction.

    “You guys.” Mu Zi Yan cocked her head and pondered for a moment, “That depends on Princess Yuehua.”

    “Ai.” Su Qinruo sighed quietly and turned her eyes to Qi Xue’er, “Sister Xue’er, you and tell me.”

    Qi Xue’er looked at them and continued, “This candidate has already been decided, and I think it has been announced now.”

    Mu Zi Yan light smile said, the heart has already had a number, the previous life of this Mingyue Academy since there is no her, so this life she has not cared about, but after the rebirth, all the things have changed, and she also has a new start, since it is different from the previous life.

    Although some things still happened according to the previous life, however, the result was different.

    Her eyes flashed with a touch of cunning as she turned her eyes to look at Mu Lingxuan, “Brother, if Sister Su is enrolled in Mingyue Academy and has to stay for three years, I’m afraid that your marriage to her will be delayed as well.”

    When Su Qinrou heard this, she raised her eyes and looked at Mu Zi Yan, “What does entering Mingyue Academy have to do with getting married?”

    “Naturally there is a relationship.” Qi Xue’er looked at Su Qinruo and said, “Female students who have joined Mingyue Academy cannot get married within three years.”

    “Ah,” Su Qinrou hesitantly looked at Mu Lingxuan and thought for a moment, “Then I’d better not go.”

    Mu Lingxuan saw Su Qinruo’s little face is wrinkled into a ball, at the moment look very cute, can not help but a smile, “You go by yourself, I can afford to wait.”

    “But” Su Qinrou small face a red, he can afford to wait, she is happy, but she does not want to wait, face the night long dream ah.

    Mu Zi Yan saw Su Qin Rou’s thoughts and turned her eyes to look at Mu Ling Xuan, “Brother, Sister Su is trying to be impatient to get started as my sister-in-law.”

    “Sister Mu,” Su Qinrou was poked and prodded, and hurriedly turned around and lunged at her.

    When the crowd saw Su Qinruo’s behavior, they burst into laughter, and the atmosphere in the elegant room then became lively.

    After a while, the people also began to eat wine, so they did not mention the side of the matter, but instead relaxed and joked.

    It wasn’t until late at night that the crowd dispersed, rushing back to their homes before curfew.

    Mu Zi Yan slightly drunk off the carriage, raised his eyes at the three words Mu Houfu, the corner of his mouth hooked up a faint smile, slowly opened his arms, as if embracing her home, she will definitely protect the Mu Houfu, not allowed any to it in the slightest.

    Mu Lingxuan see her white cheeks with two flushed red, seems to be dyed rouge, now reflected in the moonlight, through a few points of the naive state, he smiled and went forward, touching her hair, “there is a brother with you to guard.”

    “En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and replied, who could understand the bitterness and regret in her heart

    She took a deep breath and only felt her eyes slightly moist, she forced down the sadness that was churning inside her and turned her eyes to look at Mu Lingxuan, “Brother, you’ll be very happy.”

    “En.” Mu Lingxuan whispered, “My sister will also be happy.”

    “As long as father and mother, as well as my elder brother, and my younger brother who is about to be born are happy, I will be happy.” Mu Zi Yan raised a bright smile and said contentedly.

    “Silly girl.” Mu Lingxuan spoke with emotion, and in his heart there were a few more points of relief and despondency.

    The two of them entered the mansion, and Mu Lingxuan sent Mu Ziyan back to the Smokefall Courtyard before slowly heading to his own courtyard.

    Mu Zi Yan leaned against the soft couch, the window was open, the night breeze was pleasant, blowing on her face, with a slight coolness, at this moment, she did not know why, she just wanted to lean against someone’s arms.

    She hugged herself with both hands, and sure enough, drunkenness was most likely to be sentimental and more likely to reveal emotions.

    Green silk scattered behind her, moving with the wind, silk entanglement, she tilted her head so embracing herself gradually fell asleep, Yunxiang carefully went up, covered her with a brocade quilt, will be careful to put down the window, and then turned around and went out of the inner room.

    “Eldest Miss has too much heart.” Bi Yun sighed quietly, her heart aching.

    “Yes.” Yunxiang raised her eyes to look at the moonlight outside the window, “Which young lady is like her, bearing so much at a young age.”

    The next morning, Mu Zi Yan woke up only to feel an incomparable headache, raised his hand and rubbed his brow lightly, slightly opened his eyes, Bi Yun was already waiting at one side.

    “Eldest Miss, sobering soup.” Bi Yun saw that she had woken up and handed it over with both hands.

    Mu Zi Yan raised her hand to take it, lowered her head to drink it, and raised her eyes to look at her, “The announcement came out”

    “Eldest Miss, it came out yesterday.” Bi Yun said in a low voice, “The Emperor has issued a decree, and it will arrive at all the houses in the next two days.”

    “En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded and responded, “This is lively.”

    “Eldest Miss, do you still want to take a rest,” Bi Yun asked carefully.

    “No.” Mu Zi Yan saw Yun Xiang come back, “You send someone to keep an eye on that place in the north, if that scholar is really recruited, you’ll have Hidden One secretly save him and send him to the hot spring manor.”

    “Yes.” Yun Xiang answered and then retreated.

    Mu Zi Yan slowly got up, and when she was washed and dressed properly, she heard Cui Hong report outside, “Eldest Miss, Miss Zhu Cousin and Third Miss have come over.”

    “En.” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes slightly raised as she lifted her steps and walked outside.

    “Cousin.” Zhu Yue looked at Mu Zi Yan with a smile.

    Mu Zi Jing also went forward and made a half bow, “Big sister.”

    “Cousin and third sister came for what” Mu Zi Yan looked at the two of them and asked.

    “I have specially come to apologize to cousin for what happened yesterday.” Zhu Yue said and ordered the maid behind her to come forward, she whispered, “Although this multi-precious vase is not as expensive as the one of cousin, it is still a rare one, please accept it.”

    “Then thank you Cousin Zhu.” Mu Zi Yan did not be polite, but readily agreed.

    Zhu Yue did not expect her to be so quick, obviously froze for a moment, and then piled on the smile, “Cousin, this day is to enter the palace.”

    “Since I have to go.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and responded.

    “This is what I prepared to offer to the Empress Dowager, I am not feeling well today, why don’t you let the third cousin go with you” Zhu Yue lowered his tone and asked beggingly.

    Mu Zi Yan can not help but feel funny, this is what reason, she went to the palace to see the Empress Dowager, why should they take them while they are rightfully thought she must take them

    Mu Zi Yan whispered, “I’m afraid this isn’t right, after all, the fourth princess is now in the palace, and third sister’s status”

    Mu Zi Jing was thinking of going to the palace to see the empress dowager, if the eyes of the empress dowager, a reward for what, and later go out is also extremely decent, but did not expect Mu Zi Yan actually refused, and also said that she was extremely unwilling to listen to the cause, her face slightly sunken, eyes flooded with tears, “big sister, what do you mean by this is not the big sister thought that I have any ideas about the fourth princess not “

    “Third sister, your words in turn make me puzzled.” When Mu Zi Yan saw that Mu Zi Jing had also learned this trick of crying and hanging herself, her eyes flashed with a coldness.

    Mu Zi Jing met Mu Zi Yan’s cold eyes, and immediately put back her tears, before respectfully bowing, “Sister will first retire.”

    And then he ignored Zhu Yue and turned around to go out of the courtyard.

    As she was passing through the corridor, she saw someone blocking the way, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Zhu Cong standing in front of her, looking at her with a smile.

    She blushed slightly and stepped back slightly, “Cousin.”

    “So it’s third cousin ah.” Zhu Cong looked at Mu Zi Jing’s reddened face, but also just felt that it could hurt some, and did not have too much heart, after all, today’s Mu Zi Jing is really too small.

    Mu Zi Jing was aware of Zhu Cong’s nature, and also knew Zhu Cong’s thoughts on Mu Zi Yan, so she whispered, “Cousin knows that big sister has joined Mingyue Academy.”

    “I only learned about it this day.” Zhu Cong saw that Mu Zi Jing actually brought this up, so he couldn’t help but be a bit more interested.

    “Any woman who enters the Mingyue Academy, after she completes her studies, she will be a model for women, and if she marries, her husband’s family will follow her, and she will also be favored by the Emperor.” Mu Zi Jing whispered, “The big sister is now the Empress Dowager’s front person, if she marries her, in the future it will be a prosperous and honorable family.”

    “That’s true.” Wish Gravel nodded in response.

    “However, the fifth prince of the big sister’s heart is well known, although the fifth prince is not in the capital now, but the empress dowager has long had the meaning of marriage.” Mu Zi Jing said with downcast eyes, “Now the big sister and into the Mingyue academy, I’m afraid it is more to get the eyes of the Empress Dowager, I think the next time the Fifth Prince returned to the capital this matter will also be water to the end.”

    Wish gravel once heard, his eyebrows slightly knit, then he has to grasp the hands, to rush before the bestowal of marriage to take Mu Zi Yan, just how to take it

    Mu Zi Jing continued, “Big sister has joined the Divine Healer Sect, in time, this medical skill will be outstanding”

    Zhu Cong was visibly stunned, “She is still a disciple of the Divine Healer Sect”

    “Could it be that cousin doesn’t know,” Mu Zi Jing couldn’t help but look at him in surprise, her eyes flashing a ghostly light low in the sky.

    Wish Gravel nodded and responded, “Rather unheard of.”

    “It’s also true that cousin has only been in the capital for a few days, so he doesn’t know.” Mu Zi Jing slightly blessed herself, “I’ll take my leave first.”

    “Cousin please,” Zhu Cong could not help but be delighted, and hurriedly lifted his steps to go to Old Lady Pingxi County’s place.

    When Mu Zi Jing saw Zhu Cong’s hurried back, the corner of her mouth hooked up with a touch of coldness, and she turned around and went back to her own courtyard.

    Old Lady Pingxi County saw him hurrying to come and asked in a low voice, “What’s going on here”

    “Grandmother, there is a change in plan.” Zhu Cong looked at Old Lady Pingxi County and said, “My grandson learned just now that my cousin is a disciple of the Divine Doctor Sect.”

    “What,” Old Lady Pingxi County’s eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing this, “This girl’s ability is not small.”

    “Therefore, grandmother, this matter of using medicine is afraid that it will not work.” Zhu Cong said carefully, “I heard that the empress dowager favored cousin early on, and waited until the fifth prince returned to the capital to bestow the marriage.”

    “Looks like you need to hold on tight.” Old Lady Pingxi County said in a deep voice.

    “Grandmother, picking up the day is better than bumping into it, so let’s just pick the day of the big wedding.” Zhu Cong looked at Old Lady Pingxi County.

    “Good, that day full of guests, she is unable to deny, not to mention the fourth princess wedding, the emperor and the empress dowager must be personally present.” Pingxi County old lady said, “then take the opportunity to let your sister get the emperor’s eyes, really is a two birds with one stone.”

    “Grandmother said yes.” Zhu Gravel hurriedly responded.

    After the grandchildren and grandchildren had made some more plans, Zhu Cong left in triumph.

    The old Sister came forward, “Old Lady, I’m afraid this is not a good move.”
