Grab a Handsome Guy as Strategist - C65
“This commoner accepts the decree.” Shen Bai’s heart couldn’t help but rise. If he was forced to enter the palace by the decree, he would have already begun to wonder if this method of forcing someone to fight to the death was feasible.
Unexpectedly, not only did he not do that, he even made Shen Bai jump in fright.
“Shen Bai, I order you to protect Mu Yizi in the dark.” No matter what happened, he mustn’t let anything happen to her! “Otherwise, I will only ask you this question!”
Before Shen Bai could react, he could only accept the decree in a hurry.
Mu Yurou was his daughter. The fewer people who knew about this matter, the better. She did not dare to guarantee that Shen Bai would be trusted.
However, once this royal decree was passed down, Shen Bai, no matter how unwilling he was, had to stay by Mu Yizi’s side and observe well.
Regardless of who Shen Bai’s lover was, he always knew that Mu Yizi was worried about him.
Just because of this, she wanted to deliver all the things that Mu Yizi wanted to her. He would just treat it as making up for the debt he owed her this year.
However, Shen Bai was completely relieved. This way, he would have even more reason to stay by Mu Yizi’s side.
At this moment, loud noises came from outside the door.
“Princess, why have you come?”
“Eunuch Zhou, is the Queen Mother in there?” Get out of the way, I have something I need the Queen Mother for! Queen Mother. Queen Mother! ”
Lin Mu Yu’s face sank, why did this girl come over?
The person who came was the son of the Prime Minister. In the eyes of outsiders, he was Lin Yu’s only daughter.
The others thought that she would definitely be the only one to inherit the throne, but with Mu Yizi’s return, Lin Mu thought that she was more suitable than her.
When Shen Bai saw that he did not move, he opened the door to welcome the Princess Lian`er in.
As soon as Lian-er entered the door, she rushed over. Naturally, she did not notice Shen Bai, who had already retreated to the side.
“Queen Mother, Lian-er has been looking for you for so long!” Lian-Er hugged Luo Yu’s arm and shook it, her voice was so soft that it made people’s heart itch.
Not only did Lin Mu Yu not coax her as usual, he instead frowned and said angrily: “Impudent, this is outside the palace, what are you doing pulling around?!” Is that what the Imperial Tutor taught you? ”
Lian`er didn’t receive the usual doting and she was scolded head to toe. She immediately pursed her lips and cried out.
“Why is the Queen Mother so fierce today?” “He’s actually roaring at Lian-er!”
Perhaps it was because Lian-Er was usually spoiled, but she didn’t care at all. Tears streamed down her face, and very quickly, the blush on her face bloomed.
While rubbing his throbbing forehead, this child was really spoiled by him!
In the past, he could not find any trace of Mu Yiran, so he had poured his love for her into her body. However, he did not expect her to be this delicate and refined.
Mu Yizi walked in awkwardly with a cup of tea. When she saw Lian`er dressed in luxurious clothing, she couldn’t help laughing out loud.
Only then did Lian-er notice Mu Yizi, who had just come in, and wipe away the tears on her face.
“Who are you?” Lian`er wasn’t the least bit polite as she circled around Mu Yizi a few times before stopping in front of her. She had one hand on her waist while the other pointed at her as she asked loudly.
Mu Yizi didn’t rush to reply and only placed the teapot on the table before bowing towards Lian-Er, “Reporting to Your Highness, this is your servant’s residence.”
It means that if you stand on my territory now, you better behave!
How could Lian`er understand the meaning behind Mu Yizi’s words? When she heard that this was her mansion, she became even more arrogant.
“You’re just a mere subject, why didn’t you kneel before me?”
In the past, Lian`er had been used to being arrogant in the palace. The servants that served her were all in-laws, so she rarely had any court officials present. She often saw the Imperial Tutor, but as her teacher, the Imperial Tutor was naturally exempt from kneeling.
Mu Yizi glanced at the silent Lin Mu as she curled her lips slightly.
“This official’s knees are like the knees of the heavens, kneeling down in the middle, kneeling down to the parents of the Son of Heaven. May I know which one of these is occupied by the princess? ”
You think it’s great just because you’re here? The court official was the pillar of the kingdom. Did she not believe that she could be punished for protecting her daughter?
She deeply believed that she would never do something like this when she was ruling the world by virtue.
Sure enough, Lin Sanjiu smiled as she glanced at her, seemingly quite appreciative of her rebuttal.
Lian`er was agitated as she said, “I am the biological daughter of His Majesty. Why can’t the true body of the Phoenix receive a bow from you?”
Mu Yizi lightly glanced at her flawless face, “Then wait until the day Princess ascends the throne, then this subject will properly kneel down before Princess!”
Heh! Make her kneel? In his next life!
How could he inherit the throne with just Lian-er like this? If she really became the queen, wouldn’t the people in the world suffer a painful death?
“You … How dare you! Queen Mother, look at him! He actually dares to contradict me in front of everyone, quickly punish her for her crimes! ” Seeing that Mu Yizi couldn’t win, she turned to Lin Xin for help.
Her daughter had suffered such grievances. Even if she wasn’t the empress, she couldn’t be ignored as a mother!
But not only did he not help her, he taught her a lesson instead, “Enough, is this enough? Aren’t you ashamed of yourself? What have you come to me for? Hurry up and say it! ”
Hearing the impatience in Lin Mu Yu’s voice, Lian`er didn’t dare to be rash anymore.
“Queen Mother, I heard that there’s a general in the imperial court, so I wanted to meet him. Just what kind of person was she to be cared for like this by the Queen Mother? Once you entered the imperial court, you were given the title of a fourth rank officer. Even General Ji Weiji was promoted from an adjutant officer in the military! ”
As he was speaking, he pointed his chin towards Mu Yizi, “Look, didn’t you already see it?”
Lian`er rolled her eyes and said disdainfully, “It’s indeed extraordinary to see her today. “Just like a mountain villager, he was extremely rude.
Mu Yizi pursed her lips and said, “She’s a country bumpkin?” How good was her flowery face?
“Your Highness is truly wise. I presume that when you look in the mirror every day, you would feel like a celestial being had descended to the mortal world?”
Lian-er did not hear the mockery in Mu Yizi’s words, and instead raised her head like a proud peacock, and said: “That’s only natural. They all say that I am a natural born beauty! ”
Mu Yizi did not reply. Instead, she turned her head and took out the copper mirror on her dressing table.
She used to use the mirror only when she had her hair tied up, but today, she used it to look at Lian-er’s ugly face. It was truly a pity! Later on, he would definitely have Ku Mo throw away the mirror and replace it with a new one.
“Then, I would like to request that Your Highness look at your own face, so that you don’t have to look at the face of this country bumpkin under me.”
