Chapter 458 What is the truth
Xiao Qingyu looked at Mu Chu for a while, and his eyes gradually darkened.
There was an extremely depressing atmosphere in the hall, coupled with Xiao Qingyu's dignified face, people began to feel nervous constantly.
Mu Chu silently waited for Xiao Qingyu's answer, not in a hurry.
Xiao Luochen stood behind Mu Chu, and the three of them stood facing each other in the empty hall. The eunuch at the door didn't notice anything strange inside, and all of them looked out the door intently.
"I also want to know what you said!"
"Xiao Qingyu, don't fool me, do you really know nothing?"
Xiao Qingyu paused, looking at the anger in Mu Chu's eyes, his heart sank slightly.
"If you really want to know, then I will tell you!"
Xiao Qingyu was silent for a long time, and then he let go: "Although I didn't find evidence, I vaguely guessed some people who can mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops without going through my hands. Except for my father, the only one who founded The patriarch of the Apocalypse Dynasty, that is... my grandpa!"
As soon as Xiao Qingyu said this, Xiao Luochen and Mu Chu looked at each other.
"Your majesty, so you suspect that your father is not dead?"
Hearing Mu Chu's question, Xiao Qingyu shook his head again: "My father was buried with my own eyes, there is no possibility of him surviving!"
"You have faked your death once, so why don't you allow your father to also fake his death?" Mu Chu hooked the corners of his lips, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes. If Xiao Qingyu's father didn't die, he was secretly manipulating everything, even Tianqi With an army of hundreds of thousands, this matter is very interesting.
If this is the case, what exactly was the late emperor planning?
"Mu Chu, what you said makes sense, but there are still some things I can't figure out!"
"What's the matter?"
Xiao Qingyu raised his head slightly, a dark brilliance flashed in his eyes, he said in a low voice: "If my father hadn't died, it would have been impossible for Tianqi to be in crisis back then, and it was even more impossible for the ministers to say the kind of thing that would leave the mother behind. As for the son, the father still has some feelings for my mother and concubine, how could he just watch my mother and concubine die!"
Mu Chu bowed her head, she really had no way to answer this matter, the emperor's heart is unfathomable, who knows what the first emperor thought.
If he is dead, that's all. If he is really alive, he must be a cold-hearted person. However, in the hearts of Tianqi people, the first emperor is a wise and wise emperor. Put Apocalypse in such a dangerous position.
If it wasn't for Xiao Luochen's presence back then, there would be no apocalypse at this time, Baiyue Kingdom would have annexed it long ago.
"So, the emperor guessed that the person behind the scenes is your grandpa?"
Mu Chu finally understood the meaning of Xiao Qingyu's words, but after she finished speaking, she turned her head and looked in Xiao Qingyu's direction.
With just one glance, Xiao Qingyu, who was still pretending to be the fifth child, already understood Mu Chu's thoughts.
If the ancestor is not dead, he should be in his sixties.
This person's age may be several years older than Feng Xuan's, and now he is already a white-haired old man.
In this era when everyone is generally short-lived, it is not easy to live to the age of sixty.
Xiao Qingyu didn't speak, but he acquiesced to Mu Chu's answer.
The three of them fell silent for an instant, Xiao Qingyu glanced at Xiao Luochen's direction, and said lightly, "I'm afraid you are the only one who can be trusted by Mu Chu, Uncle Luo... No, the King of Chu!"
Xiao Luochen slowly reached out and took off the mask on his face.
That cold and unparalleled face instantly appeared in front of Mu Chu.
Mu Chu was a little helpless, she had the nerve to say that she was the most familiar with Xiao Luochen, but Xiao Qingyu recognized Xiao Luochen at a glance.
Xiao Qingyu's face softened a little: "The last time I was poisoned, thanks to your help, but in the future, we are both monarchs of the two countries, and there may be times when we have to deal with each other. I hope that when the time comes, we can care less about the previous affection! "
Mu Chu smiled lightly: "Your Majesty, you are too worried. Although the Chu Kingdom has risen, it will not attack other countries. It's just that if the Apocalypse army commits another crime, don't blame me for having a way to repel you!"
Mu Chu's words were really arrogant, but Xiao Qingyu listened in his heart. If it was before, how could he have thought that those powerful cannons were actually made by a woman.
On that battlefield, it was not that Tian Qi had never obtained a model of a cannon, but it was difficult for someone to make some small parts and components, requiring precise design drawings.
Otherwise, even if it is researched, the power is not too great, and the range is not too far. Such things will not be very useful on the battlefield.
"Don't think that I will hand over the drawings to you. I plan to keep this thing for my family to pass on!"
Mu Chu spread out her hands, and directly stated her words. The reason why she did this was because she didn't want to popularize cannons.
One is for protection, and the other is to ensure the absolute status and interests of Chu State.
Whether you say she is selfish or unreasonable, she always thinks about her own people.
All the people in Chu State are now her subjects, and she doesn't want to end up standing on her own because of the cannon she made.
Xiao Qingyu shook his head helplessly: "You woman, you are really cautious!"
"If I'm not careful, it's impossible to stand here and talk to the emperor!"
A smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Qingyu's lips. At this moment, the curtain not far away was lifted, and Xu Nan slowly walked out of the hall with the sleeping child in his arms.
When Mu Chu saw Xu Nan again, his expression softened slightly, and there was a little excitement in his eyes.
Concubine Xu is about to be crowned empress, and she is much more energetic now.
"Chu'er, long time no see, how are you?"
Concubine Xu's children are now one and a half years old, and they can already run and walk. They were gently placed by Concubine Xu on the low couch beside them, sleeping soundly.
Xu Nan put down the child, then turned around and came to Mu Chu, and looked Mu Chu up and down.
"Look at you, you're skinny again!"
She reached out and held Mu Chu's cheek with a smile on her face.
Mu Chu held Xu Nan's hand instead, feeling a little warm in his heart.
In the palace, she was most worried about Xu Nan. Seeing that Xu Nan was doing well, Xiao Qingyu also turned around and treated her well, so she felt a little comforted.
When she looked up, she saw the scar left on Xu Nan's forehead, her eyes darkened slightly.
"Sister Xu, has your injury improved?"
"It would have been a long time ago. If it wasn't for Chu'er, I'm afraid I would really die. I was also confused at the time. What would Zhe'er do if I died!"
As soon as Mu Chu looked up, he saw Xiao Qingyu sitting by the bed, and he carefully stroked Xiao Zhe's hair.
Seeing this scene, Mu Chu's eyes narrowed slightly, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
