Chapter 116 Dangerous situation
capital.On this day, Mu Yan stayed in the mansion for a rest.

In the middle of the morning, Kan Er knocked on the door of the study: "Master, the lady has sent a lady here."

"Do what?"

"Say it's tailor-made for the young master."

"unnecessary."

Don't want to make more clothes?This young master.

I am willing to wear those blue, black and black clothes every day.Where does this look like a young man in fresh clothes and angry horse?He is simply a wasted person who Qian Fan spent the rest of his life in.

Kan Er was a little distressed, and took a look at Li Yi.

Li Yi took a step forward: "Ma'am should have received an invitation to the Empress Dowager's Celebration. There are only Madam and your two masters in our house. I'm afraid they will all go. I just want to make some bright clothes, so it's not easy for people to look at them." lighter."

Mu Yan paused, put down the scroll in his hand: "Let them in."

Kanji breathed a sigh of relief.

In the hall, Mrs. Cheng was also stretching out her arms for the mother-in-law to measure, and when she heard that Mu Yan was willing to be measured, she was relieved and smiled.

Liu Momo covered her face and smiled: "Our young master, he was very similar to his grandfather, Lao Hou, when he was a child, but now he has a stern face, and he looks more serious. He was so cute when he was young, and he loved to laugh. Anyone who teased him would quack him. Laughing. The old master likes him the most. When he came back from outside, he would come to hug him, hold him high above his head, and listen to him giggling. He said that he could eat an extra bowl of rice when he heard the young master smile."

Cheng also laughed, "I'll follow behind, with care, lest he lose his temper from laughing."

"No."

After the master and servant finished laughing, Cheng's face darkened.

Seeing this, Nanny Liu sighed and persuaded: "Madam, the young master is by your side now, which is better than anything else, he still looks so good now. You should be happy."

Cheng squeezed out a smile and nodded: "I'm happy, I'm happy. Nurse, go ahead and make some more clothes for Yan'er, some bright ones. He thinks I made them, so he should know how to wear them."

"Oh, good. I would like to see him wearing bright clothes, blue, black and gray all day long. He looks lifeless at first glance. He is not good at taking care of people. Madam, look, do you want to send him away?" How many maidservants are there?"

Cheng paused, then shook his head, "It still doesn't work. He's used to being taken care of from time to time, so sending his maid over there doesn't have to upset him."

Nanny Liu had no choice but to give up and talk to Mrs. Cheng about giving gifts at the Empress Seal Ceremony.

In the study, Mu Yan stretched out her arms impatiently, and was fiddled with, finally measuring the size.The wives asked him to choose the color of clothes, he waved his hands impatiently: "Follow Madam."

The servants retreat respectfully.

Mu Yan spread out on the chair.

After a while, Mu Kun came to report: "Received a report from Yunnan, Lord Hou placed Geng Qi's family in Yangcheng Castle in Jinning Prefecture, and sent officers and soldiers to protect them properly."

Mu Yan clenched his fists.

Long Jiu: "Let our people in Yunnan keep an eye on us."

"Yes."

After listening to Mu Kun's report on some situations, he waved people to leave.

Li Yikan and the two looked at each other with solemn expressions: "Young master, Yunnan has many eyes and ears now, even if Hou Ye hides him, I'm afraid he won't be able to hide from... the investigation." Li pointed up with one finger.

Kan Er glanced at Mu Yan worriedly, Lord Hou didn't expect the young master's situation in the capital by doing this.

Seeing the young master with a cold face, he dryly comforted him and said: "This should be ordered by Mrs. Tai. Mrs. Tai and her natal family have always been close. Now that uncle and grandpa have hanged themselves, Geng Qi took his family to seek refuge with Mrs. Tai, an aunt. Ignore it..."

But when he thought of the young master's situation, Kan Er fell silent again.

Mu Yan looked far away.

Changxing Marquis Geng Wen was the elder brother of his own grandmother Mrs. Geng Tai, who was the founding hero of the Wei Dynasty.But the only ones who are loyal are Taizu and the first emperor.

Now that the new emperor ascended the throne, Marquis Changxing hanged himself, and his son Geng Qi took his family to Yunnan to join the Mu family.

"Your Majesty probably doesn't want to kill them all, otherwise Geng Qi's family will not be able to escape to Yunnan." Li Yi wanted to comfort him, but seeing the young master's face was cold and silent, he didn't continue.

Mu Yan agreed with Li Yi's words, if the new emperor wanted to kill Geng's family, Geng Qi might not even be able to get out of the capital.

As the adopted son of Taizu, his grandfather had a deep relationship with Empress Gao and Prince Yiwen. Empress Gao collapsed and his grandfather vomited blood. Prince Yiwen died of illness.

Prince Yiwen died of illness, and the throne passed to Emperor Jianwen.

His own father, who grew up in the capital, played with Emperor Jianwen from childhood to adulthood, and was Emperor Jianwen's playmate.After his stepfather left, the title of Marquis was not passed on to him, and Emperor Jianwen passed the title of Marquis of Xiping to his own father.

Now Xiping Hou Mu's family, in the eyes of outsiders, are all on the side of Prince Yiwen and the late emperor.It hasn't been long since the new emperor ascended the throne, and he has frequently dispatched troops and generals to carry out military deployments against Yunnan and the entire southwest.

First, the King of Min was sent back to Yunnan to become a fan.In the southwest frontier, the Mu family was first asked to quell the chaos in the southwest, and then the clan and princes were sent to make Yunnan a feudal country.

In the second month of his ascension to the throne, Zheng Xiang, the governor of the right army, was ordered to guard Yunnan.In a few days, Yuan Yu, the governor of the left, was ordered to go to Sichuan and Yunnan to clean up the army, saying that "to comfort the army and the people, and to wait for the border to be peaceful" to guard Yunnan.

Last month, Cao Long was appointed as the commander of the Yunnan capital, and Wang Chuo, Fang Jing, Wang Zheng, and Liu Jian were appointed as the commanders of the Yunnan capital; soon after, Shunchang Bo Wang Zuo was appointed to Yunnan, saying that he was helping Xiping Hou Musheng to manage Yunnan .

Not only that, but the new emperor also ordered Gu Cheng, Marquis of Zhenyuan, to go to Guizhou to rectify his armaments; he ordered Han Guanpei, the governor of the right army, to take charge of the seal of the Southern General, and serve as the general officer to go to Guangxi to rectify the armaments, and to control the two capitals of Guangxi and Guangdong.

Before that, Yunnan and even the entire Southwest were peaceful.

The new emperor moved frequently. First, he had just ascended the throne and wanted to consolidate his throne. Second, he was obviously in Shiwei Yunnan.To put it bluntly, they were monitoring the Mu family who held power over Yunnan's military, government and people's livelihood.

It's a pity that his dear father can't see the situation clearly.

When the new emperor ascended the throne, not only did he not send anyone to congratulate him, nor did he come to give gifts, he also accepted the Geng family.Not to mention hiding people, but also sending troops to protect them.

In Yunnan, who would dare to harm the people under the care of the Marquis of Xiping?They also sent special troops to protect them. Who are they defending against?
Mu Yan's face was as cold as ice, and he looked at Li Yikan Er: "The queen's ceremony is going to be a gift to the palace, you two go and choose carefully."

"Madam's side..." Kan Er wanted to say that Madam's side should be prepared, but Mu Yan gave him a cold look, and replied: "Yes."

He Li retreated.

After the two left, Mu Yan slumped on the chair and sighed.

The new emperor dispatched troops to the southwest, and the Mu family of Marquis of Xiping was feared by the new emperor.

If his grandfather and stepfather were still there, the crisis would be alleviated.But his own father was not good at wielding knives and guns. He was good at reading since he was a child, and because he liked reading, he was liked by Taizu.

Now the entire Mu family is in dire straits, and his father is not yet capable of turning the tide.

Most of the resources in the hands of his grandfather and stepfather went to his father.

Mu Yan didn't know what to do.If he was a few years older...

Sitting in a chair, staring into the distance.

As for Huo Xi, the atmosphere was harmonious.

The Huo family invited everyone to have a good meal at the Guazhou Wharf, and Huo Xi also invited a few good friends to have a good meal, and spent the night near the Guazhou Wharf.

Set off before dawn the next day.

Waiting for the box, running all the way, finally returned to the boundary of the capital before the sunset of the ninth day.
