This was the first time that Mu Yizi had officially entered the imperial court as an official.

Because the uniform had not yet been rushed out, she had to wear her own clothes. She could not care about whether her clothes were fitting or not. She could only hope that the morning assembly would let her calm down a little, even if only once.

It was only at the morning assembly, when the Prime Minister had accused her of disrespecting His Majesty, that she finally realized what the heavens were trying to do.

"Prime Minister, there's something wrong with your words." We all knew that General Mu had just accepted the imperial edict yesterday, and that she was justified in wearing it. If you insist on not letting go of this matter, I will inevitably suspect that you are targeting her! "

Mu Youzi, the elder who had spoken previously, had never seen him in the imperial court before. However, seeing that he was standing opposite of the Prime Minister, his status was quite influential.

Seated on the Dragon Throne, Lin Mu only looked at the courtiers indifferently, making it hard for people to tell what she was thinking.

"Lu Xiang, you didn't attend the morning court yesterday and came today to favor General Mu in this way. Could it be that you want to win over the court officials to form a personal alliance? " The Prime Minister didn't show any sign of weakness. Instead, he blamed the elder, who was also known as the Prime Minister, for forming an alliance to form a private relationship with the Prime Minister.

"The Prime Minister also said that I was on leave yesterday and today is only my first time seeing this little general. How could he win her over? Heh, I think the one who has the intention to form a private party must be someone else! " Lu Xiang snorted coldly. Both of his hands were tucked into his sleeves. He looked no different from the old man at the east side of the village.

Mu Yizi, as the person in question, did not say much as she watched the Prime Minister and the Minister argue.

As a child, she had already heard of Lu Xiang's name.

Lu Xiang, full name Lu Zhi-an, Jinli Country when the Prime Minister. He and the Prime Minister were to assist the Empress and were her trusted aides. He was usually low-key and didn't want to involve too much conflict within the imperial government. It was rare for someone to come for two days on the fifth day of the morning assembly. However, he still spoiled her and allowed her to take her leave. Mu Yizi was truly lucky to be able to see him on the first day of the morning assembly.

"You … How could Lu Xiang slander people like that? Be careful that I may accuse you of false accusations! " The Prime Minister was so angry that he nearly yelled at him while pointing his finger at the Prime Minister. If the empress wasn't here, Mu Yizi suspected that he might have thrown himself at Lu Zhi-An and punched him a few times.

When he did not like the names of the left and the right, he decreed that the Prime Minister and the Prime Minister should be in the same court and should be on equal footing. In addition, Lu Zhi-An was one of the empress's men, so she was a little more at ease.

"This is the first time I've heard that the Prime Minister and the Prime Minister are actually close friends. I guess even that shrewd woman can't match up to the two of you in terms of eloquence." Although he said those words, his eyes looked at the trembling Prime Minister.

The prime minister immediately understood and took the lead to kneel down. Your subject is reckless, please forgive me, your majesty! "

On the other side, Lu Xiang didn't make a move. On the contrary, he snorted in disdain at the actions of the Prime Minister.

"Alright, it's about time for this farce to end. Since General Mu's court uniform was incomplete, it wasn't inappropriate for him to wear it today. Forget it! Chief Steward Zhou urged Shantou to the back. Do all of my beloved officials still have a story to play? " His cold eyes swept across the faces of the court officials below. Seeing that no one replied, he called for a retreat.

As if their butts were on fire, the officials left in haste. When the Prime Minister passed by Mu Yizi, he even flicked his sleeves in disdain and snorted before leaving.

Mu Zhizi looked at the Prime Minister's back in confusion. Why did she provoke him? She went to the banquet yesterday and didn't even settle the score with him when he drugged her? She was even targeting him in the court, why did it seem like it was all her fault?

"You don't have to care about him. That old man is so stubborn." Lu Quanan was still standing at his original spot. He waited until everyone had left before he spoke to Mu Yizi.

Mu Yizi turned around, cupping her fists in the direction of Lu Quanan, "Thank you, Lu Xiang, for your help today."

"Mu Yushan narrowed his eyes and swept a glance at her before striding to her side with his long legs." "Follow me." And then he left.

Mu Yizi did not have time to ponder before she quickly followed suit. Although she didn't know whether or not this Lu Quanan was on her side, if she relied on the empress now, she should still be considered an ally, right?

When Lu Zhi-An arrived at the Prime Minister's Estate, Mu Youzi was surprised that the layout of the Residence of Prime Minister was exactly the same as that of the Mu Army's Residence.

"Do you think that it's no different from your Mu Jun Residence?" Lu Quanan said to Mu Yizi as he broke off a few pieces of steamed buns and threw them into the fish bowl.

"What do you mean, Lu Xiang?" He might as well get straight to the point. Mu Yurou was too lazy to make those twists and turns. From the looks of it, Lu Quanan did not intend to harm him. It would be great if they could become friends. However, if he was to become her enemy, she would not be afraid of him!

Lu Quanan clapped his hands, and a manservant respectfully walked over with a tray with clothes on it.

"This is the uniform of an old friend of mine, but he is of the first rank. Today, I shall make the decision to gift it to General Mu. "

Mu Yizi could not help clenching her fist and looking at him, but she quickly let go and put on a smile, "Lu Xiang, you must be joking. I am only a fourth rank student now, how can I accept your first rank imperial uniform? Besides, you said it belonged to an old friend. Furthermore, I cannot accept them as I please. "

"If I say I'll give it to you, I'll give it to you. Could it be that General Mu did not believe that one day he would be able to wear this uniform? Or could it be that General Mu despised the idea that someone else had worn the uniform? Since General Mu is not accepting me, I will get my men to throw it away! "

Lu Quanan scolded, then waved his hand to signal the manservant to throw away his clothes.

Mu Yizi quickly took the tray away, and after a moment of hesitation, she said, "It's such a pity to throw it away. Since you, Lu Xiang, want to give it to me, I'll respectfully accept your request."

The corners of Lu Yishan's lips curled up, as if Mu Yizi's reaction was already within his expectations.

"I'll give you my court uniform. If General Mu has nothing else to do, I won't be entertaining you then." This prime minister is not an idle person after all. "

Mu Yizi hugged her clothes awkwardly. Didn't he tell me to come? When the matter was done, they were going to send their guests off. How could there be such logic in the world?

She moved her lips and was just about to ask him what he wanted to do when the butler suddenly appeared beside her. He looked at her respectfully, as if she had stayed behind just to stay.

She hugged the clothes in her hands tightly and was too lazy to argue with him anymore. You're the boss, you're the boss. Who told her to be just a fourth-grade girl? He was a first rank Prime Minister. Could he not hide from her even if he couldn't afford to offend her?

Since he wanted to chase her away, she should just leave. It wasn't a good place to be. If he stayed long enough, it would be easy for others to criticize him. If the Prime Minister's spies saw this, they would inevitably think that she was plotting something with him. Tomorrow morning, the morning court will not be at peace.

Under the respectful escort of the butler, Mu Yizi left the Prime Minister's Estate. As he walked out of the door, he couldn't help but turn his head back and look at the Prime Minister's plaque. He wondered what the relationship between him and his father was.
