186 How can one person die for another
With one step of chess, no one can think of a way, let alone choose to give in.
"Chuluo, even if you get the throne, you can't sit firmly in the country. There are many ministers who oppose you in the court. How can you inherit the orthodox country as an outsider? For the first time, the prince felt powerless.
This time, Chu Luo put his palm directly on the back of Mu Xiran's hand protecting his lower abdomen and suddenly smiled, "I suddenly thought of a funny one. All three of you may become the highest, and now, here, as long as one of them can kill the other two, how about I let her go?
Between family, love and rights, Chuluo is looking forward to their choice.
"I'll give you a quarter of an hour. After a quarter of an hour, as long as I see only one person alive, I will let Mu Xiren go. If none of you choose to do it, I will push her down from here. I don't know what the prince will feel like for a while.
This is probably the most difficult choice that three people have encountered in this life. No one wants to hurt the people around them in this way, and they can't watch Mu Xiyan roll down from the stone steps.
Chu Luo looked up at a bright moon hanging in the vast night sky.
At this moment, a black arrow cut through the night and shot at Chu Luo's back at a very fast speed. Chu Luo's body shook. Mu Xilan took the opportunity to escape from his arms, but while Chu Luo fell back, he still reached out and grabbed Mu Xilan's wrist...
"Xi'an!" Qin Yu's pupils suddenly shrank and ran quickly to pull Mu Xilan into his arms.
On the white jade steps, the three people kept rolling down from the top stone steps, and the blood stains under Chu Luo's body kept dyeing the white stone steps red. Qin Yu hugged Mu Xilan tightly and tried to protect her stomach.
On the stone steps, the royal army guarding the dark has dispatched to take down all the people in black.
Mu Xilan looked at Qin Yu lying on her side covered with blood. Her hands could not stop the blood flowing from the wound. She shouted around, but no one answered, and she looked helpless.
"Second sister! Second sister, wake up!" A gentle voice sounded in my ear.
Mu Xilan went looking for his voice, slowly woke up, and saw the woman in front of him, "Mu Yu?"
"Second sister, it's me. Did you have a nightmare? Mu Yu carefully helped Mu Xi'an up and put a cushion on her back.
"Where is this, Qin Yu... Where is the prince? Where is he?!" Mu Xiyan grabbed Mu Yu's wrist and asked anxiously, with his eyebrows tightened.
His head was full of scenes before he fell into a coma, and Qin Yu kept rolling down from the stone steps with her in his arms.
Mu Yu pressed Mu Xiran's excited arm, "This is a house built by the prince in the suburbs. The prince is elsewhere.
Mu Xilan's heart fell a little when she heard the words, and thought about why Qin Yu didn't come over because she had nothing to do. Her heart instantly raised her. Thinking of Qin Yu in the dream, she struggled to get out of bed. "Then why didn't he come, but he was injured? Still... No, I'm going to see him in person."
At this moment, the curtain rang, and Qin Yu came in alone and saw Mu Xilan's eager appearance. He warmed his heart and strode over and pressed Mu Xilan's shoulder. "I'm just explaining their affairs in the study. Look at you in a hurry."
Mu Xilan hugged his thin waist and frowned, "Qin Yu, are you really all right?"
When Mu Yu saw the picture of the two hugging each other tightly, she was so envious that she turned around and retreated silently.
"What can I do to stand in front of you?" Qin Yu stroked her long hair with a smile, endured the pain behind her body, and comforted her, "Don't worry. Don't think about the past. It's all over."
"But..." Mu Xilan wanted to ask anything else, but when she saw Qin Yu leaning against her forehead, she changed her words, "As long as you're fine, as long as you're fine."
Seeing that her body was eased little by little, Qin Yu kissed her forehead and comforted her, "Be obedient and lie back obediently. I'll ask Qin Yi to make some hot porridge for you.
"Good." Mu Xi'an's mouth bent and looked at his handsome facial features. "Wait, you call in the sixth sister."
After a while, Mu Yu came in with hot porridge and sat down by the bed, holding a spoon and stirring constantly.
Mu Xian reached out and touched her head, "How are you doing here? Do you still want to go back to the Mu family or the capital?
Mu Yu lowered her head and shook her head, and then raised her eyes. It was still pure inside. "Second sister, I can't go back to the Mu family. I don't want to go into the capital again, so I don't know what I should do?"
"Do you like it here?" Mu Xi ran and touched her cheek again. She hadn't seen her for a year, and Mu Xiyan had grown up a lot.
"I like it. I like to learn some medicine in the backyard with Uncle Qin." Mu Yu's eyes are full of interest.
Mu Xian was relieved when she heard this, "Then you can still stay here, but you are still young, so you don't have to worry about marriage."
When it comes to marriage, my daughter's family is always a little shy. Mu Yu blushed and said hesitantly, "Second sister, I don't want to be a concubine like... fifth sister."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't let someone save you from Su's house." Mu Xi'an followed her words and saw her tilted her head and smiled sweetly. Mu Xi'an was also in a much better mood. "I'm relieved that you can take good care of yourself." Then he took the porcelain bowl and drank it slowly.
Mu Yu looked at Mu Xi's quiet look and suddenly sighed, "I envy the second sister."
Mu Xiyan raised his eyes and blinked, "Why?"
"When the second sister was asleep, everyone knew that the prince sacrificed his life to save the second sister from rolling down the stone steps. People in the whole city are very envious of the prince's feelings for his second sister. Mu Yu can't figure out what kind of emotion it takes to make a person die for another person. Mu Yu tilted her head and kept fiddling with the sachet around her waist.
Mu Xi'an smiled helplessly: "Mu Yu, one day you will know that only a stable life is the best, and people who have experienced life and death will be the most terrible." Just like herself, she lost her original innocence.
Mu Yu nodded as if he didn't understand.
After staying in a courtyard in the suburbs for two days, Qin Yu took Mu Xilan back to the capital. On the way back, Mu Xilan fell asleep in Qin Yu's arms again. Returning to the royal palace, Qin Yu sent Mu Xiran back to his room and hurried into the palace.
The atmosphere in the palace was a little quiet, and what happened in front of the Qianqing Palace that day had already been silent. When Qin Yu rushed to the Qianqing Palace, the prince and the queen were guarding. Qin Yu silently walked up and knelt down for a while, and then got up and knelt down next to the prince.
The prince smiled reluctantly when he saw him, "Uncle Wang is back?"
"When will the funeral take over?" Everyone knows that the ministers will still have some scruples before the emperor is buried in the imperial mausoleum, but as long as the emperor is buried in the imperial mausoleum, those ministers who are ready to move will not live in peace.
"Tomorrow." The prince answered helplessly.
Qin Yu patted the prince on the shoulder, "It may not be a good thing earlier. The earlier the time, the better for you.
The prince was tired and even a little haggard. "I know Uncle Wang doesn't want to participate in these things, but the situation is turbulent. I'm afraid that I can't stand the country handed down by my father."
"Anhe, you have to remember. You are the prince who can inherit the throne, and there are many ministers who turn to you in the court. You have to believe that you can be a good emperor. Qin Yu withdrew his hand, put the paper money into the stove, and sneered, "Those people are just clowns."
Hearing this, the prince felt much more at ease, "Thank you, Uncle Wang."
"I am also a member of the Jun family, and I will not coldly watch the throne fall into the hands of unfaithful people." Qin Yu also gave a promise. After saying that, he patted the prince on the shoulder heavily and left.
In Jing'an Palace, Mu Xiran woke up sitting at the round table drinking hot porridge.
Nan Shi kept saying, "That's right, madam. Two days before the emperor's death, Qin You, the second wife of Qin Mansion, had married Su and You back. In these days when my wife is away, the second room is very noisy. Even in the East Courtyard, you can occasionally hear Su and the second lady arguing.
"That Qin Mansion is more lively than before." Mu Xian hooked his lips coldly.
Su and You are people who don't like to care about everything, and they don't like others to care about everything. Although the wife is in the name of virtuous, she has known for a long time that the second lady doesn't like to give in everything. It's normal for the two of them to look at each other, but the second lady of Qinfu really has some ability to make a scene with a light woman like Su Heyou.
When Nan Xiao saw his wife's eyes with strong interest, he hurriedly exhorted and advised, "Madam, you have a body now. Don't fool around, let alone go to the West Courtyard often. I guess they can't wait for you to have a baby."
Nan Xiao's words reminded Mu Xilan that the two young grandmothers in the big room did not have boys under their knees, and the second room did not have any. If the big room and the second room know that she has a body, maybe they will do something.
"So I have something to do with my body, and I can't tell anyone."
In the evening, Qin Yu, who was in the study, heard Mu Xilan going to say good-you. His face darkened. He put down the book in his hand and went back to the room and grabbed Mu Xilan's arm. "Don't go to say good afternoons these months."
Mu Xi'an smiled at him, "If you don't ask him, it's not in line with the rules, and it will make people suspicious." His fingers penetrated his fingers and clasped with his ten fingers. "Don't worry, the second room still has no time to take care of me now."
Hearing this, Qin Yu's face suddenly softened and rubbed her head. "It's better to be so. If I hear that someone is making things difficult for you. I don't mind the complete separation of the royal palace and the Qin mansion.
"I know, go ahead." Mu Xilan let go of his hand and went out with Nianhua and Nanxiao.
Qin Yu thought about it and still felt uneasy, so he called Mu Xilan, "Wait. Nanxiao doesn't need to go if he doesn't understand martial arts. I can rest assured that Qin Yi will follow you at any time in the future.
"Good." Qin Yu took a step back, and she should also take a step back.
