Chapter 21
But Chu Xuanjin seemed to have just noticed Chu Xuanpu's existence, and looked at him strangely: "It's really rare, why did the fourth brother come to the mother's side today?"

"Brother Huang, aren't you hitting people too hard? Thinking of me, I look like a beautiful tree, and I have a dignified appearance. Wherever I stand, it is a scenery. You didn't even notice my existence..."

"Stop talking! I don't know your temper yet? Sit aside obediently and don't let your sister-in-law see the joke." Chu Xuanjin also asked casually. he stopped.

Chu Xuanpu pursed her lips, and said weakly: "Yes, my brother obeys the order." After speaking, he walked to the chair next to him and lazily put it on it.

At this moment, Chu Xuanjin didn't have the time to correct the sitting posture with him, so she raised her eyes and looked at Chu Xuanyu with concern: "Third brother, how was your wedding going yesterday? Eldest brother just happened to have something to do and didn't have time to congratulate you at Prince Rui's mansion yesterday. I don't know if you will blame big brother?"

There is a little self-blame in the sincerity, and the tone is kind and gentle. It seems that the eldest brother of an ordinary family expresses concern and apology to his younger brother. If he didn't know that he is the emperor and the fierceness hidden in his eyes, Mu Xinran would have thought it was really A good brother who loves his brother!

However, judging by the servants he placed in Prince Rui's mansion, he knew that the emperor was not a good bird, and yesterday's deserted wedding, if it wasn't for Chu Xuanjin's acquiescence, how could it be like that; The spies who were watching them in the dark, in her opinion, the most visible person who sent people to spy on Prince Rui's Palace was the Emperor.

Although Mu Xinran was not ashamed of Chu Xuanjin's hypocrisy, her face did not change at all, her face was slightly lowered, making it difficult for people to see her appearance clearly.

Seeing that Chu Xuanyu kept her mouth shut and did not answer, Chu Xuanjin narrowed her eagle eyes slightly, and asked again: "Is the third brother satisfied with the princess arranged by elder brother?"

Chu Xuanyu grabbed Mu Xinran's hand, as if he didn't hear Chu Xuanjin's question.

Mu Xinran was secretly amused, no matter how calm a person is, he would get sick when he meets a silly prince who doesn't play cards according to common sense. From her point of view, this emperor of Western Chu is not a simple character, but it is a pity that he met Prince Rui. , and I only have to hold my breath, who said that the emperor's love of face is not good, and he will lose his face.

Chu Xuanpu stared at Chu Xuanyu with a look on his face. This silly third brother is quite capable. He has a lot of questions in front of him, and he always makes him speechless. He became dumb, but for the current emperor brother, it would be even more embarrassing for the third brother not to speak.

Chu Xuanjin took a deep breath, then turned to ask the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, why don't you see Princess Rui? You asked Erchen to come here to drink tea, right?"

The Empress Dowager's complexion was not very good either, she glanced at the men and women who looked like two pillars in the center of the hall, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the Ai Family invites you to uphold justice."

"Administration of justice?" Chu Xuanjin's slightly surprised voice escaped from her mouth, her eyes flashed, and she said coldly, "Which one is so bold as to dare to anger the Queen Mother?"

"Hey!" The queen mother sighed, glanced at Eunuch Li intentionally or unintentionally, and then glanced at the sky, Prime Minister Mu should be coming soon.

Just at this moment, a eunuch came in outside.

"Report to the Queen Mother, Prime Minister Mu and Miss Mu are here."

"Let them in quickly." The Queen Mother said hastily.

Seeing this, Mu Xinran sneered in her heart, do you want to confront him in court?snort!She also wanted to see how old man Mu and Mu Xinxiu argued.

"Hey, why did Prime Minister Mu come to Changqiu Palace? What Miss Mu is there? Isn't Miss Mu married to Brother Sanhuang? Could it be another lady of Prime Minister Mu?" Chu Xuanpu's eyes kept rolling in their sockets. Turning around, it seemed to be puzzled, and it seemed to be thinking of some bad idea.

Chu Xuanjin took a sip of the tea handed over by the maid, and looked out of the palace, as if wondering why Prime Minister Mu and his daughter came to Changqiu Palace.

In his heart, he is like a bright mirror. Eunuch Li is a big celebrity around the Queen Mother, and now he has come back from a visit to Prince Rui's Mansion with this appearance. Presumably he suffered a crime in Prince Rui's Mansion. He is really curious about who in Prince Rui's Mansion would dare to be so bold It was just that the time was too short to beat Li Quan, the spies placed in Prince Rui's residence had not had time to report to him before he was called here by the Queen Mother, but it seemed that they would find out soon.

"My humble minister sees the emperor and the empress dowager."

"The courtiers see the emperor and the empress dowager."

Soon, an old man and a young girl walked in, and Mu Hanbo and Mu Xinyu saluted the empress dowager and the emperor together.

When Mu Xinran saw Mu Xinyu, the coldness in his eyes deepened.

"Excuse me." Seeing that the emperor didn't make a sound, the queen mother had no choice but to wake them up.

A pair of sharp phoenix eyes sized up the young girl beside Mu Hanbo.

Mu Xinyu kept in mind Prime Minister Mu's words and dared not glance casually, but she couldn't help shivering under the watchful eyes of the Queen Mother.

Mu Hanbo also had a nervous expression on his face. Although he had already thought up his speech, he was afraid that the emperor and the queen mother would not let him go, so he would still be punished, especially when he saw Mu Xinran standing with Prince Rui, My whole heart was raised.

"Prime Minister Mu, the Ai family invited you here not to make you bow your head and keep silent, why? Although the water spilled by the married daughter is at least your own, not to mention that she just got married yesterday, and now she keeps saying hello after seeing her." Have you saved it too?" The queen mother glanced at Mu Xinran lightly, with a sneer on her face.

An alarm bell sounded in Mu Hanbo's mind, and he hurriedly shouted: "The empress dowager is clear, with the empress dowager and the emperor here, the old ministers dare not pry on their own, so they ignore Prince Rui and Princess Rui."

After speaking, he turned around and bowed to Prince Rui and Princess Rui.

"So Prime Minister Mu also ignored the existence of this king?" A cynical but majestic male voice sounded from the side.

Mu Hanbo's back shivered. Prince Yu can be regarded as an alternative to the royal family of Western Chu. He never looked at the occasion when he spoke. This Prince Yu, I don't know how he will be teased!
With that in mind, he quickly bowed and saluted Chu Xuanpu, and Mu Xinyu beside him naturally followed suit.

"I don't know which Miss Mu is the first lady of Prime Minister Mu? She looks really iconic. I heard that my king's wife of the Three Emperors is also Prime Minister Mu's daughter, but she is the most beautiful woman in Western Chu. Why is it that Brother Sanhuang is now in?" Didn't Gong see her? Prime Minister Mu doesn't think it's strange?" Chu Xuanpu asked doubtfully with his lips curled up, even if he had doubts, there was still a smile on his face, as if the red lips were always hooked upwards.

"Excuse me, old minister, Lord Yu may have made a mistake." Mu Hanbo knew that this matter could not be concealed, so he thought that he would admit it first so as not to have more names of deceiving the emperor.

But with the trick he used to steal the beam, isn't it considered deceiving the emperor?
"Oh! Prime Minister Mu, what is wrong with me?" Chu Xuanpu smiled brighter, her bright eyes bent into crescent moons, but in Mu Hanbo's eyes, she thought it was a devil's smile.
