Entertainment of Spring and Autumn

Chapter 632: Taking the fiancée to meet the mother-in-law

Xue Mu couldn't answer Xia Houdi's "forced marriage" and fled six doors in embarrassment.

It's not that he wants to drag Xia Houdi, but because this is really not the right time for him to establish a relationship with Xia Houdi.

Maybe Xia Houdi never believed it, but the man's sensitivity made Xue Mu very, very sure that Ji Wuyou's thoughts towards Xia Houdi were definitely not pure.

Why was Ji Wuyou, who was secretive at first, exposed in advance? It wasn't just because Xia Houdi was suddenly recognized as a princess that her sister-in-law's heart was broken to pieces. Xue Mu dared to say that one of the main reasons Ji Wuyou wants to fight for power now is to be able to subdue all voices and marry his sister back to the palace.

Otherwise, why doesn't he stand up as a queen now? It was simply infatuated.

Therefore, Xue Mu once composed the song "Love the country, love the beauty even more" for Ji Wuyou to listen to, and the meaning behind it was obvious.

The marriage of the eldest princess must be approved by the emperor. If Ji Qingyuan were in office, he might have a good chance with his current momentum, but with Ji Wuyou in office, how could he agree to this? Don't even think of mentioning the marriage until Ji Wuyou is beaten and forced to the ground.

Yue Xiaochan was giggling all the way. She found it very funny that a politician or a chief police officer who was discussing world affairs one moment would suddenly start forcing marriage the next moment.

"dare you laugh……"

"Why can't I smile..." Yue Xiaochan said with a smile: "Just because she is not convinced by me and can't help but speak, should I feel slighted?"

"It turns out that you also know that others are not convinced by you..."

"Of course I know." Yue Xiaochan smiled and said, "Actually, not even you, including you, understand some things."

"What?"

"You could have stayed away from a wife."

"ah?"

"Whether it's me, Master, or Qin Wuye, Mu Jianli, and Mo Xuexin, who cares whether you marry or not? Does it matter? The only person who cares about the wedding ceremony is Xia Houdi. After all, she represents the face and rules of the dynasty. , unless she changes her name and elopes with you, she really must go through such a procedure, and we all understand."

"..."

Yue Xiaochan blinked: "Then here's the problem, it's okay if you don't marry a wife. If you marry Xiahoudi but not the master, wouldn't the Xingyue Sect be exploded? So the master can be married regardless of this, but now he must Deal with it, you must at least marry someone from the Xingyue Sect before you can explain it to the sect. In other words, in fact, we were tricked by Xiahou Di into having to get married, not that we wanted to get married first. She was forced into marriage. She did it the other way around, is it funny or not?"

Xue Mu: "...It seems that I didn't expect this level either."

"Then who from the Xingyue Sect will you marry? Either the master or me, or both together. The master wants to erase the shame of stealing the man from his apprentice, so he let me have the exclusive title. Otherwise, if they are together, I will become Incidentally. This matter is just to resolve the knot between me and Master, what does it have to do with others?" Yue Xiaochan said leisurely: "So what if Master doesn't have a status? Do I treat her as a concubine? Or Xia Houdi dares ? After all, the master of your house can only be your master..."

"Then you said at that time that you couldn't do anything to them, and you looked like you were trying to convince them?"

"That's the truth. I need to tell anyone that I have a reason to match this status, and it's not just because I'm the first to know you." Yue Xiaochan said seriously: "I, Yue Xiaochan, am not Master's accessory, but to Xue Mu A real insider who plays a big role in his career.”

Xue Mu was stunned for a long time. He found that he usually claimed to know a lot about women, but he had never thought about the thinking mode of "you don't have to marry a wife". He was in a wrong direction. He had never understood the witches. Real thoughts.

It's so enchanting and ridiculously casual. I think Xia Houdi would be even more confused if he listened to this.

On the contrary, Ye Guying, who was hiding behind her, took it for granted. She had never thought about marrying Xue Mu. Why would she marry her? Does it make any sense? Being able to be by your side like this and participate in all his trajectories is better than anything else...

"So, I think you and Xia Houdi are a good match. They both have a strange etiquette mentality in this matter, as if they are sacred, and they have not yet followed some so-called old-fashioned casualness... This is the temple and the world. Are your thoughts different?" Yue Xiaochan suddenly came closer and said, "Hey, have you eaten Xiahou Di?"

"No...no."

"Have you changed your gender these days? Your apprentice won't eat even if you push him..."

"I haven't even eaten you, and you're still engaged..."

Yue Xiaochan choked and bit her lower lip lightly without answering.

Xue Mu didn't care about her performance, he just said it casually. He looked up at the sky, it was almost dusk, and said, "Let's go into the palace first. There should be some information from Wanxi."

Hearing the name "Wanxi", Yue Xiaochan stopped talking and followed him outside the palace wall silently.

This is also the changing point of the capital.

The outer palace has been guarded by "royal guards", forming a new force system in addition to the original three systems of palace guards, worship hall, and shadow guards.

The force of this system is not weak, and most of them are outstanding children from the families of high-ranking officials, and some of them have already become Taoists. The force alone is not enough. The most important thing is that they are also staunch supporters of the imperial power. In this regard, even the three sect leaders such as Xiang Guo and Li Yingqing have little influence on the imperial guards.

Originally this was Ji Wuyou's move to break the force structure in the inner palace, but the effect was not as ideal as he imagined.

The so-called support for the imperial power is rather the support for the royal orthodoxy. To a certain extent, the Queen Mother can also represent the imperial power. Therefore, when the "Royal Guards" were selected, Liu Wanxi was involved. So far, she is not aware of any of them. She was more or less one of Liu Wanxi's people. If Ji Wuyou used the imperial guards to do things, it would be difficult for most of them to avoid her.

Although there is no saying in the Zhou Dynasty that "ruling the world with filial piety", filial piety is always valued by people. Liu Wanxi's constraints on Ji Wuyou can sometimes be said to be more headaches for him than Xia Houdi, especially when Liu Wanxi It can be said that he has been in charge of the emperor for a long time, and he has also listened to the government from behind the curtain. There are supportive cronies everywhere in the government and the public. Once he gets together with Xiahou Di, the emperor is really passive.

Thinking about it when Xue Mu replaced him with this headache constraint, he felt depressed for Ji Wuyou. He had always been worried that Ji Wuyou would take risks and use the dark force of Xu Jing and others to harm Liu Wanxi, so Eunuch Li did not leave the palace during this period and guarded Liu Wanxi for a long time.

Xue Mu took Yue Xiaochan through the Imperial Garden and straight into Cining Palace in a familiar way. The path was as familiar as his own home. Yue Xiaochan followed and squinted sideways. From this familiarity, he could figure out how he and his mother messed up the palace when he lived in the palace.

When they got nearby, they heard a soft and lazy voice coming from Cining Palace: "Xiao Lin..."

Eunuch Li's voice replied at the door: "I'm here, old slave."

"They said that Marquis Changxin entered the city an hour ago?"

"Yes, Marquis Changxin reprimanded the City Defense Department for molesting women and scolded the Jingtian Sect. Yilaonu thought that this meant that he was clearly separate from the Jingtian Sect. Otherwise, it would be inevitable that some people would always associate the Jingtian Sect's origins with him. ." Eunuch Li said: "There are others who came with him..."

"Well, it doesn't matter who's with us. Is it getting dark now..."

"……blacken."

"Then it's time for him to come, right? I miss him so much..."

Xue Mu: "..."

Yue Xiaochan: "..."

Eunuch Li turned his head and looked at the shadows where Xue Mu and Yue Xiaochan were standing, but hesitated to speak.

Of course, their arrival could not be concealed from Eunuch Li's aura, but Eunuch Li felt the aura around Xue Mu that clearly belonged to Yue Xiaochan, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer...

My queen mother, although you are all your own people inside and outside the palace, can you be more restrained in your words...
