"You only need to check for less than two hours, and the effects can last for a day. Don't worry." Xue Moyun laughed, her heart filled with bitterness. She also didn't want to be separated from Mu Ying. The two of them had experienced so much and had finally gotten to know each other, but had not even been able to live a peaceful and beautiful few days, and had encountered so many difficulties.

She knew that she came from another world. In this world, she only had her soul. She was worried about what would happen if her soul returned after taking the pill as if she was going to die. She did not want to part ways with Mu Ying like this. This life was too short, she hadn't had enough of Mu Ying yet.

But if he did not use this method, it would create a dilemma for Mu Ying and the Emperor. If it was because of him that caused the war, then it would be a disaster for the nation.

The two of them continued to embrace each other in this sorrowful and desolate manner. He hated that he had wasted so much of his time on being together as soon as he saw her. At this moment, he wished that he could go a bit slower and a bit slower.

The next day, the comfort emissary came to ask for the emperor to grant him marriage. Mu Zheng thought about it for a moment and agreed.

They were surprised to see the emperor so relaxed, because their plan had failed.

"We have decided, this Xue Moyun is only the daughter of a lowly sinner, even though she is already the princess consort. However, since she has this good fortune, she will grant your king the title of concubine. It's just that if anyone asks in the future, you all must explain the reason clearly, so as to avoid saying that my West Cold is bullying others. " Mu Zheng said deliberately.

As expected, the envoys felt uncomfortable after hearing his words. They did not intend to marry Xue Moyun in the first place, but to stir up trouble instead. Now that the emperor had actually agreed to allow them to marry a sinful girl who had married someone, wouldn't that cause the king to be greatly angered?

Homeward Bound's complexion immediately changed. He held his breath as if he had swallowed a fly, not knowing what to say. Fortunately, he had Minhan Changyang, the great strategist by his side. At this time, he couldn't help but look at Minhan Changyang, hoping that he could think of a way to say something.

"Why are you not saying anything? Weren't you all asking all this time? Don't tell me you regret it now." I am not an ignorant person. As long as you are willing, you can go back on your word and choose from amongst the princesses. " Mu Zheng was shocked.

"Alright …"

Just as Homeward Bound said one word, he was interrupted by Minhan Changyang, "Why do you regret it?" Minhan Changyang laughed. As Homeward Bound didn't know what he meant, he could only swallow his words and sit down to listen to what he had to say.

"This Xue Moyun was chosen by us in the first place. Now that the emperor has agreed to it, we are overjoyed. We have not even agreed to it yet, how can we go back on our words?" Minhan Changyang still maintained his smile that was not really a smile, and looked at the Emperor sinisterly, with an expression that could not be seen from his eyes.

This time, Mu Zheng and Mu Ying's hearts were in panic, they did not expect Minhan Changyang to be so happy, "Could it be that he has already seen through our thoughts?" Mu Zheng guessed in his heart.

"Eh, since you two are happy, that's good. Everyone is happy." Mu Zheng had nothing to say, so he could only raise his cup and take a sip.

A strange smile appeared on Minhan Changyang's face, he also raised his cup and took a sip, then said: "Since the Emperor has already bestowed us with marriage, we have come to delay you for a long time, today we will bring our imperial concubine away." As he spoke, he observed the Emperor's expression.

"This," Mu Zheng was about to find an excuse. Mu Ying stood up.

"Your majesty, the marriage alliance between two nations is a big matter. No matter what, we have to make a big deal of it and send the imperial concubine away. How can we just let this matter go?"

"That's right. No matter what, this is the princess sent by my country. We need some time to prepare for it." Mu Zheng said as he listened to Mu Ying's words.

"The prince is truly magnanimous. Not only was he willing to give up his wangfei, he even prepared everything so meticulously." Minhan Changyang intentionally said these words to mock Mu Ying.

Hearing his words, Mu Ying gritted his teeth so hard that the veins on his hands were popping out, but he quickly suppressed it. His face returned to its usual cold expression and he did not answer him.

Seeing that he was asking for trouble, Minhan Changyang then asked the emperor: "What the emperor has said is also within reason. It's just that I don't know how long this preparation will take, we still have many things to take care of at our side, we can't stay for long, would three days be enough?"

Hearing Minhan Changyang's words, the emperor immediately agreed. "Sure."

"Alright, then we must bring Princess Hua-Yang away in three days."

Back to the dynasty, Mu Zheng kept Mu Ying here. "Looks like this Minhan Changyang is not so easy to fool, we have to follow our previous plans and let Mo Yun use that medicine to fake his death."

"That's the only way." Mu Ying said in a muffled voice.

"We can get the divine medicine now. We have to make sure that there are no mistakes. We can't let any of this go wrong with Muyun." Mu Zheng warned.

"I know." In his heart, he was even more worried by hundreds of times, thousands of times, than Mu Zheng. He had already checked these items many times. He had been looking forward to not using it, but to think that it would still be used in the end.

Seeing that Mu Ying's mood was extremely low, Mu Zheng didn't say much, and knew that he was worried about Xue Moyun, hence he couldn't stop worrying, and could only pat him on the shoulder. "We know that you feel terrible inside, and we had no choice but to do this. "Luoyun is extremely lucky, so nothing will happen to her."

Mu Ying glanced at Mu Zheng, and pursed his lips. In the end, he couldn't bring himself to smile.

The two of them were silent for a long time, then Mu Zheng spoke again: "Then go back earlier, I'll leave tomorrow for you and Wiping Yun to prepare, they will leave the day after tomorrow. Sudden death... "Fine."

Hearing the two words "sudden death", Mu Ying's heart felt like it was being stabbed by knives. Even if he had to pretend, he did not want to use these words on Xue Moyun.

"Chendi will be leaving now." Mu Ying said coldly, and withdrew.

Mu Zheng looked at Mu Ying's figure disappearing into the distance, and suddenly felt that he had let him down.

"My lord, this official doesn't quite understand why you agreed to this arranged marriage. Would Your Majesty want such a woman?" After returning to his residence, he asked Minhan Changyang about his whereabouts.

"What kind of woman is she? Isn't she good? If His Majesty can obtain such a woman, then it would be his fortune!" Minhan Changyang's eyes trembled, his brows knitted tightly as he reprimanded Homeward Bound.

It was rare for Homeward Bound to see Minhan Changyang this angry, he immediately shut his mouth in fright, not knowing what was wrong with him.

Minhan Changyang looked at him, took out his fan and fanned it a few times, and the anger slowly faded away.

"I have my reasons for doing so. Yesterday, I received news that they would agree to a marriage agreement …" Minhan Changyang said.

"Oh, is there some sort of trick to this?" It was only then that Homeward Bound realized the strangeness of the situation. Everything had been controlled by Minhan Changyang.

"They plotted their lives, faked their deaths? I'd like to see how they act in this show. " The corners of Minhan Changyang's mouth hooked up into a smile, he sat down and started pondering while holding his wine cup.

When Homeward Bound heard Minhan Changyang's words, he understood immediately.

Xue Moyun had been feeling uneasy these past few days, as news from the imperial government constantly travelled over. She knew that Mu Zheng and Mu Ying were trying to pretend to be troubled. Because in order to not worry Mu Ying, she would pretend to be relaxed and happy with him and reduce the burden on his heart.

But after Mu Ying went to court, she would still feel extremely sad, and worried that the two of them would not have much time to interact with each other.

"I can't say that I can see the temperament of everyone in this mansion, but I can tell that it's about 80% to 80%." Although the others seemed amiable on the surface, they were secretly jealous of each other. Although everyone admires your highness, I hope to be able to receive a little more of her love. "

"But their love is too selfish, and it often troubles the prince. "I can see that even though you're only saying that you're repaying him for his kindness, your heart has long since developed a deep affection for the prince."

"Your ability is extraordinary, but you're willing to be mocked by a few concubines and often help the steward. You're just hoping to manage the estate properly. Let the prince worry less. You are the one who truly cares for your highness. "

In Xue Moyun's courtyard, she called Liu Ruyi over and said this sincerely.

"Madam, chenqie definitely didn't mean it that way. You misunderstand …" Hearing Xue Moyun's words, Liu Ruyi was terrified, she immediately kneeled down and explained.

"Get up and let me finish." Xue Moyun supported Liu Ruyi up.

"I'm not blaming you for your actions. I just hope that in the future, if I'm not around anymore, you can take good care of the Prince." Xue Moyun said sorrowfully.

"Madam and Prince share a mutual affection. Your concubine has no intentions of interfering, and would not even dare to dream of replacing Madam and taking care of Prince. Please, ma'am, don't say that. " Liu Ruyi thought that Xue Moyun was testing her, and immediately shook her head and said.

"Sigh, you only need to remember what I said." Xue Moyun sighed, he could not explain himself to her anymore, so he could only remind her, hoping that she would remember his words.

Liu Ruyi was confused by her words, but from the sullen look on Xue Moyun's face and the sorrow in her voice, she could vaguely sense that her wife had a premonition that something was going to happen.

"You can go back first. Just remember my words." Xue Moyun sighed and said.

"Then, chenqie will take her leave first." Liu Ruyi still wanted to ask something, but seeing that Xue Moyun did not say anything and his face was filled with grief, she did not have any choice but to ask.

"Madam …" Lan Zhi suddenly cried, and kept wiping her tears.

"What's wrong? Why are you crying? " Xue Moyun turned his head, and asked upon seeing Lan Zhi in distress.

"Madam, you've been unhappy for the past few days, and now that you've given me so much information, this servant feels that something bad must have happened. Please hold back and don't tell anyone else." Lan Zhi said as she sobbed.

"Silly girl, you're already so grown-up, yet you still act like a little girl. I'll tell you later. However, promise me that if I'm not here anymore, I'll live a good life. "Also, take good care of your highness for me."

Xue Moyun said as her smoke circle turned red. She really couldn't imagine what Mu Ying would do if she were to vanish into thin air.

"Madam." Lan Zhi leaned on Xue Moyun's leg and started to cry.

"Alright, don't cry anymore. The prince should be back soon. Don't let him see and worry."

Xue Moyun wiped away her tears as she looked into the distance. She did not know if there would be any more days left until she could wait for Mu Ying like this.

As the two were talking, Mu Ying walked in from afar.
