Chapter 40
Mu Chen didn't know that whenever she looked at the night sky, a person on the roof looked at her so affectionately.

A night without dreams.

Sure enough, when Mu Chen got up the next day, Qing'er happily whispered in Mu Chen's ear.

"Miss, you are so powerful, the people in the whole city are all healed, and they are all saying that the shopkeeper of Luochen is a living Bodhisattva!"

"It seems that Xiao Feng's ability to handle affairs is good." Not only he cured the disease, but also won the hearts of the people for Mu Chen.

Mu Chen is more and more satisfied with Xiao Feng, with such subordinates, Mu Chen can save a lot of things.

These few days Mu Mingqing is no longer in the mansion, most of the things in the mansion are taken care of by Su Rou, the old lady also stays in the Fushou Hall for the sake of retirement and does not take care of things, plus these days there are always noble people in the mansion Visiting, even if the father-in-law in the palace is here at this moment, there is no trace of panic.

Just after Mu Chen had breakfast, the emperor couldn't wait to announce her into the palace. It must have something to do with yesterday's plague and yesterday's condition.

"The daughter of the people sees the emperor, long live the emperor."

When Mu Chen came, the emperor was not alone in the palace, there were also Xuanyuan Haotian, Xuanyuan Ming who hadn't seen each other since that time, and several ministers.

"Get up! You have healed my people, tell me what you want, and I will honor that condition."

"Your Majesty, Minnv has no other conditions. Minnv wants to break off her engagement with the Third Prince."

As soon as Mu Chen finished saying this nonsense, he felt that the surrounding air became a little cold, one was on Xuanyuan Haotian's body, and the other was on the emperor's body.

"Oh? Second Miss Mu, is she really saying that the third son is not good enough for you?"

The emperor's voice became cold and aggressive.

"Your Majesty, you are serious. It's because women feel that they are not worthy of His Highness the Third Prince." Mu Chen lowered his eyes and sneered in his heart.

"What if I insist on letting you marry the third child?"

"The emperor wanted to say something, but he didn't believe it, and the daughters of the people had to obey."

Seeing the emperor's posture, Mu Chen knew that today's affairs would not escape smoothly, and felt very uneasy in his heart.

"Haha, good, that's great, the Mu family is full of talents!"

What Mu Chen said, Mu Chen didn't regret it. He knew that this person was the emperor, but Mu Chen still had no hesitation. In this life, he lived for himself, and no one could force him to change him.

The emperor was threatening and laughing at times, Mu Chen really couldn't figure out what this meant, but he would never let himself marry Xuanyuan Haotian.

"Okay, then I will dissolve your engagement with the third child."

"I also have a condition, you don't want to be my concubine, I don't blame you, but you must marry someone in the royal family, what do you think of the Ninth Emperor Brother?"

Mu Chen was very happy when he heard the emperor said that he was in contact with the marriage contract, and he also saw Xuanyuan Haotian's body stiffen and clenched fists, revealing his mood at this time.

But when Mu Chen heard the emperor's words, he was stunned for a moment. The relationship between Xuanyuan Ming, Xuanyuan Haotian and Mu Chen seemed to outsiders to be two royal men pursuing the daughter of a wealthy private businessman at the same time. What does that mean?

Mu Chen looked at Xuanyuanming from the corner of his eye, wondering if this was what he meant, but the latter still had the same expression as Mu Chen entered the palace, with an indifferent expression, as if everything had nothing to do with him in the slightest.

"What do you think of the Nine Emperor Brothers?"

"The courtiers are all determined by the emperor."

The two sang together and completely ignored Mu Chen. Mu Chen was full of anger and had nowhere to vent. He could only lower his eyes to hide the emotion in his eyes. There was a feeling in his heart called secret joy.

Compared to Xuanyuan Haotian, Xuanyuan Ming is still acceptable.

As soon as this idea appeared, Mu Chen was taken aback. When did he think so highly of Xuanyuan Ming?

"Then it's settled like this. I will draw up the imperial decree tomorrow and choose a date to get married."

Mu Chen didn't know if it was an illusion, but when he walked out of the hall, he saw a vague smile on the corner of Xuanyuan Ming's mouth, but the next moment he returned to normal.

Mu Chen returned to Mu's mansion in a restless mood, and didn't even listen to what Qing'er said. Finally, Qing'er saw that Mu Chen was absent-minded, turned around and retreated, leaving Mu Chen alone in a daze.

With Qing'er's voice missing from her ear, Mu Chen didn't feel it. There was only one thought in her mind that kept lingering, would she really want to marry that weird eighth prince?
Mu Chen sat quietly at the table thinking about this simple and straightforward question.

A gust of evening wind blew in, Mu Chen raised his head and saw a man in a purple robe sitting on the opposite side, his face was still the same as in the daytime, without any expression on his face.

"Angry?"

"Eighth prince, although the emperor said it during the day, he didn't make an order. It's not appropriate for the eighth prince to appear in my boudoir like this!"

When Mu Chen saw Xuanyuan Haotian, he felt annoyed for a while. Now Mu Chen wondered if this man had colluded with that emperor.

"Is the lady despising her husband?"

The smile on Xuanyuanming's face didn't have the aura of no strangers just now.

"Eighth Prince, we haven't gotten to know each other to this extent yet, the imperial decree hasn't been issued yet!"

"It's okay, sooner or later."

"That's not necessarily true!" Mu Chen's voice was extremely low, but the man opposite still heard it, and even raised his pretty eyebrows.

"Woman, don't try to run away from me, you are the woman I, Xuanyuan Ming, believe in, you cannot escape, the tone that cannot be questioned is very domineering.

It seems to have seen Mu Chen's doubts: "Brother Huang and I have no collusion."

With a firm tone and the unquestionable expression on his face, Mu Chen couldn't take his eyes off for a while.

In terms of beauty, although Xuanyuan Haotian is good, he is not on the same level as Xuanyuanming. According to Mu Chen, this Xuanyuanming looks like a monster, especially when he smiles at you, he will definitely take all your Thinking is all stopped, such as now.

It was the first time for Mu Chen to see Xuanyuan Ming smile, and it could be said that regardless of the first time in his previous life or present life, he saw a man who could smile so nicely, like Mu Chunfeng, his normal appearance was simply two extremes.

After a long time, Mu Chen pricked himself hard with the silver needle hidden in his sleeve, and then he regained his sanity and became fully awake.

Cursed secretly, the man opposite was still smiling like a flower.

He continued to lower his head and ignored the evildoer on the opposite side, after a long time, another scent of bamboo passed by, and there was no one on the other side, if it wasn't for the scent of bamboo, Mu Chen would have thought he was dreaming, this man's martial arts is not so high.

Mu Chen lay on the bed tossing and turning but couldn't sleep at all. He opened his eyes and looked at the curtain beside the bed. As long as he closed his eyes, he would see someone's evil smile. Mu Chen thought she must be poisoned. Poison!
