Chapter 878 Meat on the chopping board

Jin Yan's marriage was finalized, and a big stone in Liu Yunxiang's heart was relieved.

She was about to go to the study to find Yan Mu and tell him about her plan to send her three children back to Zhenbei, when Zi Jin Dian Dian ran over.

"Girl, someone is coming to look for trouble!"

Liu Yunxiang frowned, "Who?"

Given the current status of the Zhenbei Palace in the court, would anyone still dare to come looking for trouble?

"The formation is quite big."

Liu Yunxiang thought in his heart and hurriedly followed Zijin to the front yard. He saw the servants at home gathered around, not knowing what they were looking at. Liu Yunxiang saw that Yan Mu was also there, so he walked towards him.

The servant made way for her, and when she walked forward, she saw a dozen mutton fans placed on cutting boards a few steps away...

It was absolutely fresh, and the blood was still flowing, forming a large patch on the ground.

"The Fourth Highness said that Your Highness, Your Highness, has done a great job for your hard work. As the royal brother, he feels sorry for you and sent these freshly slaughtered muttons to help you recuperate. He also told the Prince not to be too grateful. He and you have a deep brotherly relationship.

Please accept it as you wish."

The person who said this was probably someone close to the fourth prince, with a sense of ridicule.

Yan Mu's lips curled up, "What kind of breed are you raising?"

"Well?"

"I, the king, have gold branches and jade leaves, and the food I eat must be of the highest quality. Brother, please do not give me the food he eats. I will look down upon you."

The man probably didn't expect that the prince's focus would be on the breed of sheep, "Black goat from Liangzhou."

"It's hard to get in."

"..."

"Okay, then I will accept it."

The man thought that Yan Mu would get angry and even scold the fourth prince, so that he could learn from the fourth prince vividly when he went back, but it didn't happen at all, and the prince seemed to be very happy to receive such an offer.

The man scratched the back of his head and left with his subordinates carrying the mutton.

Liu Yunxiang laughed, "The meat on the chopping board can only be slaughtered by him. Is that what he meant?"

Yan Mu snorted, "Idiot."

"Your Majesty is picking things up, but there are only two of you. One of you can't control it, and the other can't hold up the wall with the mud." Liu Yunxiang said with a smile, "What can he do? He can only scoop up this mess, thinking that he can threaten you.

."

Yan Mu narrowed his eyes, "Same stupid."

"What about this meat?"

"It's stewed. The whole family will eat mutton stew tonight! Oh, by the way, send a bowl to the fourth prince's house so he can try it too."

That night there was a lively mutton stew in the Zhenbei Palace, and the fourth prince was very angry after hearing about it.

"It doesn't matter that he is the King of Zhenbei, it doesn't matter that he is the crown prince. My father told me that he only has a legitimate son like me. The cold treatment he gave me before was just a slap on my face. The appointment of Yan Mu as the crown prince was just a matter of circumstance.

Forced, the throne will be mine sooner or later! Humph, he won’t be proud for long, from now on he will be meat on the chopping board, let me slaughter him!”

"That's what His Highness said."

As soon as he finished speaking, the boy in the front yard brought a bowl of mutton sent by the palace.

The fourth prince looked at the steaming bowl of mutton on the table and threw it to the ground in anger.

"Whoever came up with this bad idea is out of his mind, right?"

The next day in the court hall, the emperor was sitting on the throne. He probably thought about the death of Meng Guiren. His face turned pale and his eyes were gloomy. He glanced at Yan Mu first.

Today we discussed going to Ling'an for peace talks, but the ministers all lowered their heads and no one spoke.

The emperor shouted angrily, "Why, are you all mute?"

"Your Majesty, I think this matter is of great importance. The prince should go there in person to show my great sincerity. Moreover, the prince is very resourceful and will definitely be able to fight with others and win a good result." The fourth prince stood up and said.

Yan Mu lowered his eyes, knowing that the fourth child would push him out.

The emperor scanned the area again, but still no one came forward. He secretly gritted his teeth and looked at Yan Mu: "Prince, what do you say?"

"My son is willing to go to Ling'an, but..."

"Just what?"

"It's just that this time we have high mountains and long rivers, and the journey is difficult and dangerous. When we get to Ling'an, we don't know what the situation will be like. I would like to invite King Suping and King Qing to go together."

As soon as these words came out, Qin Feishi's mouth twitched, but Lu Changan still looked calm, as if he expected Yan Mu to do this.

"King Suping and Prince Qing hold important positions..."

"You two are important ministers in the DPRK. When the Ling'an peace talks come, I will be able to discuss with you so as not to make wrong decisions."

At this time, Wu Min stood up first and said that what the prince said was very true, and it was really appropriate for the two princes to go to Ling'an. Other ministers stood up one after another to second their opinions, and they all agreed with the prince's proposal.

When the emperor saw this scene, his face became darker and darker. When he spoke, no one spoke. As soon as Yan Mu spoke, all the ministers agreed.

The matter was not settled at the moment. When the next court came, the emperor called Yan Mu and His Royal Highness to the study room.

"The King of Purging and the King of Qing, one is in charge of the Northwest Army, which can protect Shengjing, and the other is in charge of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, which can also protect Shengjing. If you take these two away, wouldn't it mean that you have hollowed out the defense around me and replaced Shengjing?"

I am in danger." The emperor said angrily.

"Yes, you asked these two people to protect you, who will protect the father?" the fourth prince snorted.

Yan Mu took a deep breath, he had truly understood the stupidity of these two people.

"Father, do you think the two of them are loyal to you and the court?"

The emperor frowned, "What do you mean?"

"If they are loyal ministers, keeping them in Shengjing will stabilize the court. If they are ambitious, keeping them in Shengjing will be equivalent to putting you, father, under the tiger's mouth, and there will be two tigers."

The emperor lowered his eyes and said nothing for a moment.

"Father, the prince is just making alarmist remarks..."

"Shut up!"

The emperor shouted at the fourth prince. He was so angry that he didn't think of this, and neither did this good-for-nothing.

"My son will take these two men away and go to Ling'an together. It would be best if the peace talks can be successful. If not, when the troops are sent out, they will be implicated. Then we will not be afraid of them adding to the chaos.

"

The emperor snorted coldly, "You are thoughtful, but this battle cannot be fought."

Yan Mu lowered his head and said nothing. He could guess what the emperor was going to say.

"We must not fight. If we lose, the great glory will be destroyed in your hands! Even if we cede Ling'an City or even more cities, you have to talk to them and give up their plan to go north."

Destroyed by his hands?

Yan Mu sneered, it was obviously ruined in his hands, he couldn't afford it, so he wanted to pass it on to him.

He also ceded the city. If he really signed such a contract, then he, the prince, would not do it anymore. He would be scolded by his subjects and would be infamy for thousands of years.

"The Southern Jin Dynasty was not greedy enough, and the peace talks were just a cover."

"It must be negotiated anyway."

Yan Mu stopped talking and the emperor waved him away.
