Chapter 51: Rare
When Ning Yunxi left, her eyes were bitter and she felt like she was dying.
Lin Mu was slightly moved.
Gao Jing looked down on him.
Noticing the change in Lin Mu's expression, Yan Yu gave orders in a deep voice.
"Come in, everyone."
Lin Mu and Gao Jing followed the sound and walked in.
Gao Jing's face was filled with joy.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations, Your Majesty."
"I saw that she seemed to be crying, and I guessed that the prince must have driven her away."
"Very good, this burden is finally gone."
"No one will ever seriously injure the prince again."
Yan Yu did not respond, but turned to look at Lin Mu and asked with interest.
"What do you think about this matter?"
Lin Mu had a stern look on his face, not smiling, and there was a hint of pity in his eyes.
"The prince was so angry that he didn't have time to react. But now that he has come to his senses, he has seen through the prince's plan."
"Why do you still want to turn Miss Ning San away?"
"Forgive me for speaking frankly, but if Miss Ning San really intends to harm you, how can Your Majesty sit still at this moment?"
Gao Jing pushed him hurriedly and reminded him in a low voice.
"What are you talking about?"
"Why are you so ignorant of etiquette?"
"Do you know who you're talking to?"
Lin Mu ignored him and continued speaking.
"Your Highness treats his advisers so poorly. I am afraid that this move will discourage other ministers."
"Who will be willing to assist the prince in the future?"
"In my humble opinion, too much is as bad as too little. The late emperor trusted too much, and Your Highness is too suspicious. Both of these are not the actions of a wise ruler!"
Gao Jing was shocked and hurriedly pulled him to kneel down together.
"Your Highness is wise. This is just drunken talk. It doesn't count."
"The late emperor was a model of a wise ruler, and the prince is a role model for the world. I, your humble servant, have no way to repay your kindness."
Yan Yu didn't have too many thoughts of ancient people, so he naturally wouldn't be angry about this.
"Stop kneeling, sit down."
"Lin Mu."
Lin Mu replied.
"Wei Chen is here."
Yan Yu continued to ask questions.
"Tell me, why are you willing to believe her?"
Lin Mu said frankly.
"Miss Ning San's contribution to His Majesty does not need me to elaborate on it. His Majesty will speak for itself."
"Miss Ning San is resourceful and unpredictable. Anyone would have hesitated for a moment."
"But, she is extremely rare, and because of this, she is coveted by all parties."
"In my humble opinion, rather than trusting someone, I would say that I have to trust them."
"Your Highness has seen through the Prince's plan today."
"With her ability, she can completely control the prosperity and decline, success and failure."
"No matter whether she is someone else's counsellor or the prince's think tank, the prince's safety is the same and depends entirely on her will."
"In this case, it is better to keep her by my side."
"First, maybe if I appeal to her emotions and reason with her, she will be convinced."
"Secondly, after all, they are the monarch and his subjects, just like the late emperor and the emperor. With the common people as witnesses, at least it won't disrupt the relationship between the monarch and his subjects."
"I am disrespectful and blunt, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Yan Yu smiled back.
"fine."
"Thank you for your honesty."
Gao Jing was like seeing flowers in the fog, not knowing what was going on.
"What does this mean?"
"Even if Miss Ning San is a bad person, the prince has to take her in?"
"Master Lin, you don't have a fever, do you?"
"She is just an orphan who was abandoned by her family. Everyone in Ning Mansion despises her."
"What's more, she is the abandoned concubine of Prince Chen."
"Why would the prince want such a person? Why would he be so kind to take her in when she is not even related to him?"
"That's strange. You actually pleaded for her. Could it be that... you like her?"
Lin Mu's face turned red and he gritted his teeth in anger.
"Why did you say that?"
"I was discussing the strategy of the imperial court, but how come you thought it was a romantic relationship?"
Gao Jing continued to misunderstand.
"Are you... shy?"
"Could it be that Lord Lin really fell in love with Miss Ning San at first sight?"
"She is the abandoned concubine of the Prince of Chen. You are single and have no wives or concubines. This is really a bit of a loss for you."
Lin Mu was extremely angry.
"Master Gao, this concerns the reputation of Miss Ning San, please be careful with your words!"
Gao Jing misunderstood even more.
"You love her with all your heart. Fine, I won't say anything."
"I'm sorry for the offense, Lord Lin, please forgive me."
Yan Yu carefully considered Lin Mu's words and remained silent for a moment.
After thinking about it, he gave the order.
"Gao Jing."
"Go to Cisha Mountain and check if there are any signs of an ambush in the outer circle."
Gao Jing stood up and responded.
"Yes."
Not long after, Gao Jing came back.
"Reporting to the prince, there are indeed signs of an ambush in the outer circle!"
"When you read the letter, you guessed that there was an ambush in the outer circle."
"Now it seems that fortunately the prince is very wise and good at planning, and changed the strategy in time."
"Otherwise, if we really listen to the words of Miss Ning, the more than 600 people in the Guardian will be gathered together and annihilated by the King of Chen."
"She has indeed always been the Prince of Chen's person, planning for the Prince just to gain his trust."
"Alas, even Lord Lin was bewitched by her."
"This person is too scary. Your Majesty, please come up with a plan to get rid of her as soon as possible!"
When Lin Mu heard him mention his love again, he became angry and glared at him.
Yan Yu smiled.
The heavy stone in my heart has finally settled down.
"Is there something in your brain?"
Gao Jing was stunned for a moment.
"I don't know."
"I have never opened a skull, so I have no idea what is inside the brain."
"Why do you ask this, Your Majesty?"
"Is there something in the prince's brain?"
Yan Yu smiled self-deprecatingly and nodded.
"Ah."
"It's flooded."
Gao Jing scratched his head.
"I seem to remember the prince saying that having water in your brain is not a good thing."
"Why is your Majesty scolding me?"
Seeing him so confused, Lin Mu suppressed his anger and explained patiently.
"In the inner valley, the King of Chen made full preparations for retreat. He retreated at lightning speed, leaving no trace of an ambush or fight."
"In this case, how is it possible to leave traces in the outer circle?"
"This is obviously a plot by the Prince of Chen to sow discord."
"do you understand?"
Gao Jing didn't think twice and just insisted.
"can understand."
“I understand.”
"If you understand everything, how could I not understand it?"
After saying that, he began to rack his brains to think and ponder.
……
Xiangzhu Garden.
Qiu Bi came in ecstatically with her parents, helping them carry their luggage.
"girl."
Ning Yunxi calmed herself down and went to meet him as calmly as possible.
"Why are you still carrying so many bags? Aren't you going home to settle down?"
Qiu Bi explained as she put down her luggage.
"The seals on my house have not been removed, and I have no money, so I have no choice but to bring my parents to seek refuge with you."
The words fell,
Feng Yan and Feng Wendan knelt on both knees.
"Thank you girl for saving my life!"
Ning Yunxi saw this and quickly reached out to help.
"Uncle and aunt, no need to be so polite."
"Qiu Bi and I have always gotten along like sisters."
"So to me, you are all elders, how can you kneel to me?"
As she spoke, she turned her gaze to Qiu Bi.
"The seal is still there?"
"how can that be possible?"
"Originally, after the injustice is redressed, Tinghetai should send someone to remove the seal."
At this moment, a man ran in in a panic.
"Third Miss, something terrible has happened. The Tinghetai token has been lost."
"Lord Qin is suggesting that the target of this matter may be the Third Miss!"
Ning Yunxi recognized him at a glance. He was the fourth-rank court attendant beside Qin Hongzhong, named You Xiancheng.
