Chapter 166: Ominous Signs (A Must-See) (2 / 2)

Qi laughed, “Rather.”

“By the way, I heard that the Emperor is going to bestow a marriage this day, is this matter true” Mrs. Marquis Su asked in a low voice.

“I don’t know.” Qi raised her eyes to look at Lady Marquis Su, seeing that there were a few more points of worry in her expression, she knew that she was concerned, and then said, “This matter is nothing more than a rumor.”

“Then I will rest assured.” Mrs. Marquis Su was relieved, if Mu Zi Yan really give marriage to the Prince, is not into the dragon pool and tiger’s den at that time this Marquis Su how to deal with themselves!

Wait until a shrill shout comes from the distance, “The Empress Dowager arrives, the Emperor arrives.”

Only then did the crowd get up, kneeling and bowing in unison, “See the Empress Dowager See the Emperor”

Straight to wait until the Empress Dowager and the Emperor took his seat, the Emperor swept through the kneeling in the ground of a group of courtiers, because this night is in addition to the year, so between the eyebrows since a few points of the ground with joy, whispered, “leveled off.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty.” After everyone thanked him, they rose and stood.

Wait until the eunuch shouts, “Sit.”

The crowd then took their seats, and then became silent.

The Empress Dowager raised her eyes to the front, her side is seated is the moon princess, the fourth princess and the fifth princess, and the emperor’s side is seated in the concubines, and then the next head is the crown prince, and then is the prince, followed by princes, county lords, the three ministers in the court.

The majestic palace, the jade tower, surrounded by festive red lights, far from seeing since a piece of joy, the scene of peace and prosperity.

The emperor looked since the dragon heart is very happy, and then said some impassioned speech, followed by the crowd since the voice of concurring, shouting long live.

MuZiYan since is and, straight wait until the ears ringing drums and music, high platform since there is a song and dance, to the Prince as the head of the congratulatory speech, and some of the laughter.

Waiting until the end of the Yun Fei led Jun Qianrui up to salute, Jun Qianrui dressed in crimson brocade robes, the pair of eyes like a bright pearl, now flashing with bright light, respectfully went up to kneel, made enough effort to say some auspicious words, amused the empress dowager and the emperor joyful.

This came down one after another, and then another hour passed.

The Emperor raised his eyes to look ahead, before settling his gaze on the Crown Prince, “It’s time for the Crown Prince to establish a Crown Princess.”

“Father, this matter is all up to Father.” Jun Qian Che respectfully rose and bowed.

The crowd was quiet at the moment, and all of their gazes fell on Mu Zi Yan’s body.

The Empress Dowager was no exception, her eyes flashed with a flash of ghostly light, and then she saw the Emperor look at her, “I wonder if the Empress Mother has a favorite”

“It seems that the Emperor already has a candidate.” The Empress Dowager said as she looked at the Emperor.

“There is one.” The emperor said and then also looked in Mu Zi Yan’s direction.

Mu Zi Yan lowered her eyes and did not say anything, for a while the whole palace banquet became silent, only waiting for the emperor’s golden words.

Su Qin Rou looked at Mu Zi Yan worriedly, while Mu Zi Yan sat with a stoic face, openly accepting the gazes of the people looking over.

Now even Jun Qian Che and Jun Qian Hao’s gazes had fallen on her.

The corner of Zhong Xuan’s mouth hooked up into an evil smile, and her eyes crossed a cold light, as if she was waiting for something.

Mu Qinyuan and Qi both looked at her as well, and without realizing it, His Majesty was silent for a quarter of an hour, which made everyone not dare to make a sound and be silent.

“The Mu family’s girl can be in” the emperor finally opened his mouth, and the crowd sucked in a mouthful of cold air since.

Su Qinrou was even more anxious now, looking at Mu Zi Yan’s eyes overflowing with worry.

Mu Zi Yan slowly got up, and then slowly stepped forward, and when she reached the center, she respectfully kneeled down and bowed, “My daughter Mu Zi Yan see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor”

“En.” The emperor looked at Mu Zi Yan, “I remember that after the spring year, the Mu family girl will be twelve, right?”

“Back to the Emperor, it will take some more time.” Mu Zi Yan returned without being humble.

“Rather.” The emperor nodded slightly, “You go and keep the spirit for Yu’er since you are there, and I will reward you for it.”

“Go to the wake, is the subject daughter voluntary, do not dare to ask for reward.” Mu Zi Yan truthfully back, now listen to the emperor this, Mu Zi Yan will know, the emperor is just to use her to test the crowd.

The emperor nodded his head and said, “It’s a resourceful girl, both so, the king is not joking, since said reward, since it is to reward, you voluntarily guard the spirit of the feather child for three years, since it is the whole of the empress dowager to the feather child’s grandparents and grandchildren, but also to let me have some comfort in my heart, this sincerity has a sense of the sky, I’ll be sealed you for the Cheng’an County Lord.”

This statement, the crowd is even more surprised, is not said to give the marriage for the Prince Consort how to be sealed for the County Princess!

Zhong Xuan’s eyes flashed with surprise, since she hadn’t expected it, her face sank, flashing a touch of hostility, and then she hung her eyes.

Jun Qian Che looked at the Emperor in shock, rather puzzled.

Su Qinrou and Hou Yi Yi looked at each other in disbelief.

The old lady’s face more and more gloomy, this girl really is not simple, originally thought that she was sent to the imperial tomb, since she was rejected, must be no return, did not expect that she actually have this kind of ability, the old lady raised her eyes to the Empress Dowager, eyes flashed a flash of ghostly light, dark, it seems to be the Empress Dowager’s blindfold, just why the Empress Dowager secretly help Mu Zi Yan it!

Such a flipped ending caused the crowd to be amazed.

“My daughter thanks the emperor for his grace.” Mu Zi Yan also did not expect the emperor to appoint her as a county princess, just a flash of surprise in her heart, then she accepted it openly.

“Good, good.” The emperor said in a deep voice, “After the three-year period, I will reward you properly.”

“Your Majesty’s grace,” the people thought Mu Zi Yan will be sent into the mausoleum is unfortunate, but now realize that this is not unfortunate, is simply fortunate, with three years of mourning in exchange for the title of the County Lord, such a good thing, but the other side can not be hoped for.

Qi’s instantly froze, this this was named as the county princess

Mu Qingyuan, however, felt that there must be other conspiracies in this, and his heart was not half-joyful, but more worried instead.

After Mu Zi Yan was rewarded and retired, the emperor did not mention the matter of the crown prince’s bestowal of marriage again, but said, “Tonight is the New Year’s Eve, since it is to be a double happiness, I have enrolled a county princess, since it is to marry a princess.”

“Xuan’er.” The Emperor said as he turned his eyes to the already prepared Fifth Princess.

“My son sees Father.” Jun Yuxuan rose and knelt respectfully.

“I will give you a marriage today.” The emperor looked at her and said, “I remember that the Yu Nan Wang family’s son and your age is similar, talent and appearance is not bad, Xuan child think how”

“My son is willing to do so.” Jun Yuxuan whispered.

“Good, since that’s the case, then we’ll choose a date for the marriage.” The emperor responded cheerfully.

“Thank you, Father.” Jun Yuxuan happily responded, but that emperor’s son-in-law did not appear.

The Yu Nan Wang family mentioned by the Emperor, however, caused a lot of sensation, although the Yu Nan Wang family is not a century-old family, but it is still a famous family, and how can it be compared to a family?

Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, only feeling that she had gained a lot tonight.

Just don’t know how the fifth princess and the Yu Nan Wang family has been involved she raised her eyes to look at the fifth princess Jun Yuxuan, see her color flat, and there is no any joy, nor the slightest sadness, think she is early to know.

Mu Zi Yan only felt that things seemed to be getting more and more complicated, while many unknowable seemed to have completely messed up the trajectory of her previous life.

While she was in a daze, Su Qinruo whispered, “Sister Mu, what exactly is going on”

Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at her, “I don’t know.”

She raised her eyes to Zhong Xuan, who was sitting not far away, and saw that there was nothing unusual about her expression, but Mu Zi Yan felt that something was wrong.

Straight to the end of the palace banquet, all the people are out of the palace.

On the other hand, there were many more voices of congratulations beside Mu Qingyuan and Qi.

Qi Xuan and Chapter Staffer came up to look at her, but both had heavy hearts at the moment.

This Cheng’an Sheriff is not as honorable as it seems on the surface.

Mu Zi Yan only felt that this was only the beginning, and was afraid that something even more deadly was yet to come.

Only until Mu Zi Yan returned to Marquis Mu’s residence, she still felt that things were too smooth, she then leaned back on the soft couch, carefully pondered over the things that happened at the palace banquet today, and seemed to have thought of something.

She got up in a hurry, and the next thing she knew, she heard a scream from not far away, and she rushed out to see blood and red in front of her.

The two of them, Yunxiang and Bi Yun, rushed forward, “Eldest Miss, I don’t know who it is that threw in many dead birds.”

“Dead bird,” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly as she whispered, “All packed up.”

“Yes.” Biyun hurriedly turned around and told Cuihong to hurry up and clean up.

Mu Zi Yan wearing a brand new dress went to Jiyueyuan, from the palace back, since it is to keep the New Year’s Eve, she can not rest, so it went to Jiyueyuan.

Just stepping into the courtyard, he heard Mu Ling Jue’s flooding cries coming from inside, Mu Zi Yan’s eyes flashed with a cold light, lifting her steps she entered the house.

“Father, mother.” Mu Zi Yan stepped forward and saw Qi frowning, worriedly holding Mu Ling Jue with a grave expression on her face.

Mu Qinyuan saw her coming, “Smokey, you give it a look, came back and cried non-stop, couldn’t be coaxed.”

“En.” Mu Zi Yan went up and looked at Mu Ling Jue, only to feel that there was something strange, followed by a careful inspection.

And just then, Lu Zhong rushed in and whispered, “Master, outside”

“What’s wrong,” Mu Qingyuan said in a deep voice as he looked at Lu Zhong’s flustered expression.

“There are dead birds piled up outside the mansion.” Ru Zhong whispered.

“Dead Bird,” Mu Qingyuan’s eyes flashed with a cold light as he raised his steps and headed out.

Mu Zi Yan’s face condensed, turning her eyes to Yun Xiang, “Go and see where there are also dead birds in addition to the Marquis Mu’s residence”

“Yes.” Yun Xiang hung her head and answered, then she retreated.

Mu Zi Yan carried Mu Ling Jue over from Qi’s arms, and after taking a closer look, her eyes flashed a cold light, “Like she’s in shock.”

“Frightened” Qi looked at her in disbelief, “He was in my arms the whole time, how could he be frightened”

“It doesn’t matter.” Mu Zi Yan looked at Mu Ling Jue, then set him down before looking at Bi Yun, “Go bring the medicine chest.”

“Yes.” Yun Xiang answered and then retreated.

Not long after, he saw Yunxiang come, “Eldest Miss, nowadays there are dead birds all over the capital, moreover, outside the gates of all the major families’ mansions as well, even in the palace.”

“How come there are so many dead birds all of a sudden” Mu Qingyuan asked in disbelief.

Mu Lingxuan also rushed over, “The entire capital is filled with dead birds.”

“Tonight is the New Year’s Eve, and there is a dead bird, since it is an ominous sign, signaling the decline of the Great Amazing Kingdom.” Mu Zi Yan said in a low voice.

“Is this man-made or providential” Mu Lingxuan but asked the key.

“Artificial.” Mu Zi Yan said in a low voice, “I was only made a county princess this evening, and for this to happen right now, isn’t it too much of a coincidence?”

“If it’s really aimed at sister, then it will be troublesome.” Mu Lingxuan whispered, “This is related to the Dragon Vein, and it’s even more of a public outrage.”

Mu Zi Yan sneered, “So it was waiting for me here.”

“I’m afraid it’s more than that.” Mu Qingyuan said in a cold voice.

Yunxiang then ran back, “Eldest Miss, Eldest Miss Su and Eldest Miss Hou are unconscious, so are the two cousins, and just now Elder Zhang said that Miss Lu also fainted.”

“But they are all close to you.” Mu Lingxuan said as he looked at Mu Ziyan.

“If that’s the case, I’m afraid there’s more.” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed, followed by Yun Xiang rushing over.

“Eldest Miss, Zhang Shizi and Qi Shizi suddenly vomited blood, and so did Elder Zhang.” Yun Xiang’s eyes sink slightly as she looks at Mu Zi Yan and says.

Mu Zi Yan’s eyes flashed with a cold light as she raised her eyes to look at Mu Ling Xuan, “Brother, you shouldn’t”

Mu Lingxuan was about to open his mouth when he felt a pain in his heart, followed by vomiting blood.

Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at Mu Ling Jue, and then at Mu Ling Xuan, and then she looked at Yun Xiang, “Hurry up and help your brother to lie down.”

“Yes.” Yunxiang answered with her head hanging down, then she went forward to support Mu Lingxuan.

Mu Zi Yan then sent the message out, and in a short while, he saw Bai Xuan fall.

“Lei Shi Zi” Mu Zi Yan just felt strange, now this just remembered that Lei Yichen did not enter the palace.

“Lei Shizi,” Bai Xuan looked at Mu Zi Yan, “has the same symptoms as Mu Shizi.”

Bai Xuan raised his eyes and glanced at Mu Lingxuan, who was lying on one side, and said in a low voice.

“Can there be a solution,” Mu Zi Yan whispered.

“There is.” Bai Xuan continued, “Lei Shi Zi suddenly vomited blood and fainted before entering the palace.”

“How was he poisoned,” Mu Zi Yan only felt a little strange.

“Smokey, I think the Emperor has already sent someone.” Mu Qingyuan said as he looked at Mu Zi Yan.

Mu Zi Yan whispered, “Since I’m here, I can only enter the palace.”

She looked at Bai Xuan, “Send out all the great doctors in the manor, we can’t let them get hurt.”

“Yes.” Bai Xuan responded, then flew away.

Bi Yun came with the medicine box, Mu Zi Yan turned to look at Mu Ling Xuan, and then at Mu Ling Jue, first stabilized Mu Ling Jue’s mind with a silver needle, turned to look at Mu Ling Xuan, and in a short while, he saw Hidden One drop down, holding the antidote in his hand, “Master, this is what Bai Xuan gave.”

“En.” Mu Zi Yan took the porcelain bottle, “There are other situations in the palace”

“Everything that has come into contact with the master has gone wrong.” Hidden One continued, “Even the Empress Dowager has not been spared, and Concubine Yi, along with Concubine Yun and the Twelfth Highness, are all in a coma now.”

“Rather wonderful.” Mu Zi Yan coldly laughed, first giving the antidote to Mu Ling Xuan and turning her eyes to look at him, “Save the people first.”

“Yes.” Hidden One hung his head and answered.

Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at Qi and Mu Qing Yuan, stepping forward to probe her pulse, her eyes sinking slightly before handing them two antidotes, “Father, Mother, take this antidote.”

“What the hell is going on here,” Qi said in a deep voice as she took the antidote and took it.

“It’s someone who wants to put me to death.” Mu Zi Yan said in a cold voice.

“Eldest Miss, just now news came in that the bridge to Yunshan Temple in the palace suddenly broke, and a stone emerged from it that reads,” Yunxiang looked at Mu Ziyan, “The Mu Clan’s daughter is out, heaven and earth are in turmoil, and the nation’s fortunes are broken.”

“This is to exterminate the clan.” Qi said in a deep voice, “Just who is it that wants to bring the Marquis Mu Mansion to its death.”

Mu Zi Yan’s eyes overflowed with wickedly cold light, “I’ll enter the palace first.”

“No.” Mu Qingyuan looked at Mu Zi Yan, “Wouldn’t you be sending yourself to death by going forward now”

“Father, my daughter can’t not go.” Mu Zi Yan looked at Mu Qing Yuan, “Since there is someone who wants to completely ruin the Mu Family, I will make it difficult for her to turn around again.”

She raised her steps and stepped out of the Jiyue Courtyard, Yunxiang and Bi Yun hurriedly followed.

Mu Lingxuan hurriedly got up and was about to follow.

When Mu Zi Yan had just stepped out of Marquis Mu’s residence, she saw that the imperial guards had already felt it, and Zhang Xi respectfully stepped forward, “His Majesty has declared that County Lord Cheng’an has entered the palace.”

“Good.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and replied, then she got into the carriage.

Bi Yun and Yun Xiang hurriedly followed, but were stopped by Zhang Xi, “The Emperor has decreed that only County Princess Cheng An will be declared.”

Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at Yun Xiang and Bi Yun, “Both stand down.”

“Yes.” Bi Yun and Yun Xiang hurriedly hung their heads and answered in a low voice.

Mu Zi Yan to be sitting on the royal whisky, immediately rushed to the palace, she sat in the royal whisky, Zhong Xuan is how to poison it can not be the poison she carries, then it will be who is it

She slowly closed her eyes, unexpectedly the imperial chauffeur traveled to half of the time suddenly stopped, Mu Zi Yan secretly screamed that it was not good, her eyes flashed a cold light, she lifted the curtain, she saw that the imperial guards and Zhang Xi outside had been subdued by the assassin, while surrounded her.

Mu Zi Yan did not panic in the slightest, but slowly went out of the royal chu, and then stood in front of them, “This is to kill to silence.”

“An ominous daughter, but she has been cursed by the heavens.” The leading man in black said.

“Oh.” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyebrows and raised her eyes to look at Zhang Xi, then she saw him step forward and remove the human skin mask from his face.

Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly, “En, not a bad ploy.”

“Why don’t you send Great Miss Mu on her way.” Immediately afterward, they saw those black-clothed men gradually approaching Mu Ziyan.

Mu Zi Yan’s eyes were calm and wave-free, the corner of her mouth hooked up a touch of evil smile, looking straight at the killers in front of her, waiting until those killers gradually approached.

“Since you’re here, why don’t you show yourself,” Mu Zi Yan raised her voice.

Those black-robed men suddenly stopped in their tracks, and Mu Zi Yan continued, “This kind of scheme is good, but it’s still slightly worse.”

The people hidden in the shadows still don’t come out.

“Don’t delay.” The leader in front of him said in a cold voice, then looked at the assassins beside him, “Don’t do anything yet.”

“Yes.” The killer then flew up, the cold ground knife in his hand slashed straight towards her, since he wanted to dismantle Mu Zi Yan.

“Haha,” Mu Zi Yan’s wrist moved, and a long whip suddenly appeared in her hand, and then she lashed out, and the loud sound that the whip made resounded through the sky.

Mu Zi Yan’s eyes flashed with a flash of ghostly light, the corner of her mouth hooked up with an evil smile, while the cold knife in the hands of the assassin in front of her was knocked out, and with a spin, she kicked the assassin in front of her out.

“Rather underestimated you.” Seeing this, the leader immediately waved his hand, and the remaining assassins all raised their swords to slash at her.
