The pretty mistress of Hou Ye's family

Chapter 281

The dusty iron box was placed in front of Yao Yao.

Yao Yao's eyes lit up instantly, and she raised her eyes in surprise, "Master Hou, you are really amazing! Where did you find this box?"

"By your mother's grave."

"what?"

Yao Yao hurriedly asked, "How did Lord Hou guess that the thing was buried next to my mother's grave?"

"I wrote a letter to them just now, making them think that the things have been taken away, and they will definitely go and have a look. And I guessed the route they are going at a glance. I will dig the grave one step ahead of them. Sure enough, after digging a few holes, we found something."

Yao Yao raised her eyes full of admiration, "Master Hou is still amazing, and the little girl admires him very much."

"Heh, come on, it's time for Madam to pay the salary, right?"

Yao Yao's smile fell, and she coughed awkwardly, "Can't... er... just wait for two days? Don't look at the room full of people."

Qin Yilan thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's really not a good place. Let's go, madam, let's go to the small forest."

"Huh? Don't—"

Yao Yao couldn't resist, so she could only be carried by him and flew out of the house.

If the place is not right, change the place, but what is owed to him cannot be let go for a moment.

In the middle of the night, Yao Yao lay down in the man's arms drowsily, and went back to the house from the small woods to get a rest.

The Mu brothers and sisters blocked their way.

Seeing the happy little woman with a flushed face, Mu Li felt very uncomfortable, "Master Hou, the Second Highness has been rescued, what's the next step?"

Qin Yilan responded softly, "I will arrange a place for you to settle down first before discussing."

Mu Li hurriedly said, "While my brother is here, why don't you send troops to attack Yu Wenhong?"

Qin Yilan didn't have time to say anything, but Mu Yuanqing said, "What is the crusade? He is the eldest son, and we use the name of the Second Highness. That is not a crusade, but a rebellion."

Mu Li gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, you also saw that Yu Wenhong turned the entire capital into a smog before he sat on the dragon chair, and the people are in dire straits. Isn't this a crusade?"

Mu Yuanqing snorted sullenly, "I don't think the Second Highness can do anything after taking over the throne."

Mu Li was taken aback, and shouted awkwardly, "At least he's better than Yu Wenhong! At least...at least...at least he's obedient! He listens to me very much!"

Mu Yuanqing narrowed her eyes and stared at her, "So you want outsiders to say that our Mu family is controlling the government?"

"This--"

Mu Yuanqing yelled angrily, "Don't think it's easy to go to war. Fighting is a waste of people and money. Without the king's supply, it's useless to have power and soldiers in my hand. It will take only three months and I will be defeated. What's more, my army Most of them are at the border, and the delays will wear us down. Unless..."

Mu Li hurriedly asked, "Unless what?"

Mu Yuanqing bowed his head and remained silent.

Qin Yilan said in a low voice, "There is nothing unless, I don't allow you to take the Second Highness to the border and establish yourself as king. The territory of Dahe cannot be divided into two."

"Establish yourself as king?" Mu Li said with a smile on his face, "That's a good idea!"

Qin Yilan snorted with a straight face, "I told you, it's not allowed, didn't you hear?"

Mu Li choked, and his heart was sour when he was told, "Master Hou, I don't know what you are thinking now, and you are not willing to submit to His Highness, and you are not willing to stand up for His Highness. What do you mean by hiding like this?" ?”

Qin Yilan turned her head and said, "I'm waiting for the emperor to wake up."

Mu Li asked in surprise, "Is the emperor still alive?"

"Well. He was in a coma due to poisoning, and he hasn't woken up yet, but I think he can wake up. So please wait patiently."

Mu Li suddenly laughed loudly, "Ha, that's a good relationship! If the emperor wakes up, he will definitely kill Yu Wenhong immediately! The eighth son of the white-eyed wolf king kills his father and abuses his wife. He will never have a good life. By the way, if If the emperor wakes up, if Yu Wenhong is removed from the stage, won’t the Second Highness be made the crown prince in the end? Since they all end in the same way, why didn’t Lord Hou let the Second Highness take the throne earlier?”

After hearing this, Mu Yuanqing also nodded, "Indeed, if the emperor wakes up, he will definitely depose His Highness the First Highness and make the Second Highness the Crown Prince. Since the Second Highness will ascend the throne anyway, how about we?"

Qin Yilan said softly, "The position of the prince is still unknown. Everything will be decided after the emperor wakes up."

Mu Li froze suddenly, "Master Hou, how do I feel that the unknown you mentioned is the emperor's illegitimate child?"

Mu Yuanqing gasped, "What? The emperor has an illegitimate child?"

"I vaguely heard people in the palace mention that the emperor seems to have an illegitimate child."

"Where did this rumor come from?"

"It was reported from His Majesty's palace. It is said that in order to suppress rumors, Yu Wenhong killed many slaves and slaves, and blood flowed all over the city."

Mu Yuanqing took a deep breath, "This—"

"But the news is still uncontrollable. People in the palace are still spreading rumors. I have heard some, but I haven't taken it to heart. Lord Hou's procrastinating attitude now obviously doesn't want His Royal Highness to be enthroned. The meaning of the king."

Mu Yuanqing hurriedly turned her head and asked Qin Yilan, "Master Hou? Is it true?"

Qin Yilan asked Mu Yuanqing in turn, "What if this is true? Who will General Mu support?"

"What, what?"

"If the emperor can't wake up, even if I send troops, I won't send troops in the name of my second brother. I want to support the emperor in my heart. What about General Mu? Do you want to follow your sister's husband-in-law, or the emperor I believe?"

Mu Yuanqing blinked numbly, unable to recover for a while.

Mu Li was the first to question, "Who is the third prince? Where is he? How does he look? How is his character? These are all unknown! Although the Second Highness is relatively mediocre, he was trained by the cabinet ministers after all."

Yao Yao opened her eyes, and said quietly, "As an emperor, one shouldn't be mediocre."

Mu Li almost choked when he heard that, and roared angrily, "That's what your father taught you too. When you say that about Second Highness, are you saying that your father taught you badly?"

"Yes." Yao Yao replied straight away, "It is true that he did not teach the two princes well, he is guilty."

Mu Li was startled, and blinked speechlessly, "You will really make things difficult for your father!"

"What's the matter? This is the truth! How dare he say that he has taught well? Two students, one became a tyrant and the other became a mediocre. He is self-willed, blind and heartless, and likes to listen to slander from villains, so in the end, he taught two useless apprentices. Heh—"

Mu Li was instantly silenced by her.

After a moment of silence, Mu Yuanqing suddenly asked, "Then Madam Hou? If you were me, how would you choose?"

"If I were you, I really need to think about it. At least I have to meet the third son of the emperor before making a decision. If the third son of the emperor is as cruel as his highness, it is better to make his second highness the king."

Mu Yuanqing narrowed her eyes and asked, "Does Madam know who the third son is?"

"understood."

Mu Yuanqing gasped and asked, "Who is it?"

"I can't tell you yet."

"I know! It's that monk!" Mu Li snorted, "It must be that monk! Otherwise, Yu Wenhong wouldn't be able to post so many wanted lists of that little monk."

After thinking for a while, Mu Yuanqing said, "Madam, I don't ask who the third son is, I just ask you, what is his character like?"

"Not bad, at least, I am satisfied."

Mu Yuanqing's heart moved slightly, and he said, "Okay! As long as Madam is interested, then I am willing to face him squarely. If the emperor does not wake up in the end, I will listen to Madam. Whoever Madam takes a fancy to will be made king."

Mu Yuanqing's words attracted the attention of the three of them.
