Chapter 207 I Don’t Want You to Settle Down

The emperor has sent people to verify the identities and experiences of the two men. The reason why he was in a hurry to call them here was, on the one hand, because he was afraid that the two men would collude and conceal the truth over time, and on the other hand, he was also afraid that the assassination would alert the enemy and the two men would get away.

"here……"

The two's satisfactory answers had made her a little suspicious whether they were already prepared. Seeing Madam Mu's obviously wavering attitude, the emperor dispelled his doubts:

"Madam, do you know him? If you have anything to say, just say it. I will forgive you."

"I wonder if your Majesty could tell me what this pattern is?"

When the emperor heard Madam Mu use the word "pattern" to describe the emblem of the Dragon Spirit Sect, his heart sank, but he did not show it on his face. He just said:

"It's a very important pattern for finding someone. How can I say this person? She might have some connection with the murderer. More importantly, I have doubts and would like to ask her for advice. If Madam is concerned about her life, I can guarantee her safety or let Madam handle it in the future. Please don't hide anything from her."

"I am terrified, I dare not."

Handing the paper back with both hands, Mrs. Mu said:

"Your Majesty, I have never seen the round sun-like pattern before, but the moon-shaped one does look familiar to me... I just can't remember it right now, so I am a little hesitant."

"Since Your Majesty said it's related to finding someone, it could be a pattern of clothing or accessories. I know which direction to think about it."

Frowning, Madam Mu pretended to be thinking, but she couldn't give an accurate answer for a long time.

The more she refused to deny it, the more His Majesty believed it.

Afterwards, the emperor asked the two about their experiences over the years and the details of the assassination. They almost told the truth, and also took the opportunity to report the injustice of the Marquis' Mansion again.

When the emperor heard that they were going to stay and accompany their daughter, and had already bought a house next to the marquis's mansion to settle down, he felt relieved. In the end, he did not force them, but let them think about it slowly. He even gave her a token so that she could come to the palace to report at any time when she remembered.

Then, the two elders were personally sent back home by Eunuch Defu.

Mu Lianzhi received the news very quickly. When she heard that the emperor was talking about her marriage and that it was not suitable to get married because there was no spring this year, Mu Lianzhi could not help but sneer and shook her head:

"I forgot about that."

Isn't this the reason why Ling Feier wanted to get married before the New Year?

"Miss, why are you still in the mood to laugh? After this year, we will have to find another good day next year. If we delay, it may take more than a year. The longer the night, the more dreams we have."

"Yes, Miss, please don't treat Master Beitang as a dish. Master Beitang is handsome and one in a million. You don't know how many women out there envy you to death, and also scold you to death."

"That's right. If we don't decide quickly, what if someone copies our example and something unexpected happens?"

"Yes, Miss, we have counted all the household belongings and servants. Will we have to stay here forever?"

Seeing that the maids were all so anxious that their faces turned bitter, Mu Lianzhi stood up and tapped each of them with his fingers:

"How come you still have a brain full of stone after following me for so long?"

"If you don't break, you can't build. If you can break, you can build. I don't know gossip or fortune-telling, but I know there must be a solution. I can come up with a solution for you at random. Isn't it just that it's not suitable to get married? Then if I just hold the wedding ceremony and don't go to the government to register, is it still not a marriage?"

With just one sentence, she stumped all the maids.

"On the other hand, marriage is just a formality. If he wants, there is always a way to solve it. Similarly, if people's hearts want to change, even if we get married today, they will change."

“Just let these things take their natural course.”

"No matter what, I will take you away. If you have time, go find your own happiness. I will buy a house for each of you as a dowry. No matter what happens in the future, we can live well on our own."

"Miss……"

When they looked at each other, the maids' eyes suddenly lit up with excitement and their eye sockets turned red.

"Okay, if you have nothing to do, go walk around the yard. Didn't Jiang come here last night? Keep an eye on her."

"Yes."

……

Almost at the same time, the news from the palace spread to every corner it should reach.

Beitang Mansion, upon hearing his subordinates' report, Beitang Yi sneered:

"In order to prevent me from getting married, they really did everything they could. They will try their best to stop me as long as they can."

Si Chao couldn't help shaking his head while fiddling with the folding fan in his hand:

"You, don't be so unconvinced. If it were someone else, this wouldn't be the case."

"Maybe it's God's will! Others' self-torture tricks somehow worked for her. She was a widow in her widowhood, and all the disasters that should have been avoided were avoided by others. How could your two horoscopes plus her name break it? I've never seen anything like this before."

"Two trees make a forest, grass also makes a tree, and Mu Lianzhi has branches. This year there is no spring, but her name contains two trees and there is no lack of spring. The two of you are really a match made in heaven. The sixth day of June is a good day. If you miss it later this year, it will be gone."

How should I put it? It's really the right time, the right place and the right people. When marriage comes, nothing can stop it.

Si Chao couldn't believe that such a thing could happen.

"However, I'm afraid that no one will believe my calculations even if I tell them to others. You should probably ask the Imperial Master to personally calculate your fortune. This way, the doubts from the outside world and the court should be easily resolved."

As soon as Si Chao finished speaking, a strong male voice floated in from outside the door:

"How difficult is this? I'm already here, right?"

When he saw the Imperial Master coming, Beitang Yi walked out, knelt down and bowed to him:

"I have met my foster father and would like to thank him for his kindness."

If it weren't for the Imperial Master's words of rescue back then, and his secret care and support over the past few years, Beitang Yi knew that he would never have survived, let alone today.

In the past, he never believed in or liked these things, but this did not include Master Tianhong.

Reaching out his hand, the old Taoist helped him up:

"Good boy, get up quickly. It was His Majesty who asked me to come. Even if you don't want to get married right away, you still have to see if His Majesty agrees. Isn't this what I am here to help you solve your problems?"

When their eyes met, they understood each other tacitly.

The emperor must have some doubts or requests about the Mu family now. He will certainly promote anything that can help. Why would he care whether his marriage is auspicious or not?

When the two of them got closer, Master Tianhong whispered again:

"It's the Prince's Mansion that doesn't want you to settle down too quickly."

In one sentence, Beitang Yi understood what was going on. Either someone was gossiping about him or someone was trying to trip him up. However, the emperor's will was already made, so who could disobey it?

The marriage was done.

The Imperial Master came this time for two purposes. On the surface, he was concerned about his adopted son, and secretly, he wanted to do what the Emperor had told him to do. In addition to checking the Gu King, he also wanted him to work hard at the Mu family. Inside the house, the three of them were drinking tea and acting, but in fact, they were talking freely without any taboos.

"What do you mean, godfather? Are you saying that in addition to the ones we have targeted, there is another invisible black hand?"
