C438 He Was a Cold Man
"Alright, let's calculate the time. Mu Han and the others should be here by now. Let's hurry over. "
Mu Yan stood in front of the table and thought for a while. Suddenly, he turned his eyes to Grand Tutor Lin and said in a flat tone.
Grand Tutor Lin was caught off guard by his sudden change of topic. He could not keep up and asked, "Where. . . Where are we going?"
"We are naturally going to the Qiankun Palace. " Speaking of this, Mu Yan revealed a meaningful smile and said. "Don't forget. Mu Han. He's a filial son. When he found out that Royal Father was seriously ill, how could he not rush to visit him at the first possible moment? "
" What? Go and see the Crown Prince!" Grand Tutor Lin was shocked at first, then he said with a troubled expression: "This doesn't seem to be appropriate, right?"
"Why not?" Mu Yan replied with a question. He shot him a cold glance and said, "Lord Grand Preceptor, you have to think clearly. At a time like this, the more guilty you are acting, the more suspicious you will be. On the contrary, the more open-minded you are, the more you will be able to conceal your identity. "
After saying that, Mu Yan did not stop for a moment. He strode out of the Divine Martial Hall. Behind him, Grand Tutor Lin hesitated for a moment before finally making a decision. He gritted his teeth and chased after him.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Mu Yan and Gu Xing stopped outside the hall. At this time, Mu Han, Gu Xing, and the others had finally arrived.
"Yan!"
When he first saw Mu Yan, Mu Han impatiently rushed forward. However, when his eyes swept across Grand Tutor Lin, his facial expression changed a few times, as if he disliked Mu Yan walking together with him. However, due to the current situation, he didn't flare up and only asked in an unfriendly tone. "Grand Tutor Lin, why are you here?"
When he suddenly heard Mu Han calling him, Grand Tutor Lin immediately felt guilty and shivered. After all, he was the Grand Preceptor of a dynasty, an important official of the country. Although he did not have any real power, he had been an official for many years. Having seen countless big scenes, he regained his composure in an instant. Hearing this, he cupped his hands. Tears suddenly flashed in his eyes as he said, "Replying to the Crown Prince. The Emperor's dragon body is not feeling well and he has been bedridden for many days. As a subject, this old official sees that my Emperor is suffering from illness and suffering all day long. Of course, it is also difficult to sleep and eat in peace. He wished that he could replace him with his own body, but now, this old official felt helpless. He could only wait outside the hall day and night, praying for the heavens to show mercy to his emperor. If I am able to recover as soon as possible, then this old official will have no regrets even if I die! "
His words were spoken in an impassioned and righteous manner. However, how could Mu Han not know what kind of person he was? Disobeying the law for personal gain and accepting bribes for corruption. He had always been in front of everyone, but when it came to protecting the country, To benefit the people, he retreated faster than anyone else. They are all far away, this kind of person. . . If it was him, he would have died countless times already. However, he didn't know what kind of Ecstasy soup he had given Royal Father, but he still thought highly of him. He had climbed from Jie to the position of Grand Preceptor, step by step. A sinister villain who was ignorant and only knew how to flatter and bully others could actually take the position of Rank One. This was truly a great irony!
"Heh, Grand Tutor Lin is really thoughtful. Mu Han represents Royal Father and thanks him here. " Mu Han said with an indifferent tone. He looked at Mu Yan again and urgently asked, "Yan, you have been staying in the Palace these few days. Royal Father, you have been staying in the Palace. He. . . Is he alright? "
"Crown Prince do not need to worry. Royal Father's luck is deep and he is out of danger. The Imperial Physician said he only needs to concentrate on recuperating for a few days to recover. "
Mu Yan said with a smile, but it gave people a sense of distance that was hard to tell. Gu Xing and the others keenly noticed that Mu Han called Mu Yan Yan, which made him seem very friendly. However, Mu Yan did not call Mu Han 'brother'. Instead, he called Mu Han 'Crown Prince'. Invisibly, the relationship between the two of them became a lot more distant.
When the four Shadow Guards mentioned Mu Yan, they all called him Bo Liang. Now that they thought about it, it turned out that it was true. Gu Xing and the others immediately became more wary of him, because if nothing unexpected happened. . . All the attacks that they had encountered previously should have been done by this man, but they couldn't see any flaws on his face. It could be seen that this person was extremely shrewd and could not be unguarded!
Mu Yan seemed to have sensed that Gu Xing and the others had come with ill intentions. He smiled indifferently and asked Mu Han, "Crown Prince, who are these people again?"
"They are all good brothers that I met on the way. Speaking of which, it was all thanks to these brothers that I was able to come back alive this time. "
Mu Han didn't seem to realize that his biological brother was the one who had sent someone to kill him, or that he had already realized that it was just that he didn't want to admit it. He sighed and said.
"So that's how it is. " Mu Yan immediately cupped his hands towards Gu Xing and the others and said. "Thank you for your help. Everyone in the royal family will be eternally grateful!"
Gu Xing and the others naturally didn't have a good impression of such hypocritical people. Seeing this, they only smiled faintly. Mu Yan seemed to not take them seriously at all. Immediately, he turned his head and ignored them.
"Does this mean that Royal Father is fine now?"
Mu Han immediately beamed with joy, sweeping away the secrets in his heart. At this moment, he shouted out loud, "This is great, this is great! The heavens are really blessing the Great Chu!"
As he spoke, What?" Mu Yan asked. He was about to step into the main hall, but Mu Yan stopped him and said, Royal Father has given the order. No one is to be seen during the recuperation period. Crown Prince, please go back!"
Mu Han frowned slightly when he heard this. He said, "Even I am not to be seen?"
Mu Yan nodded his head heavily.
"Impossible!"
At this moment, the Azure Dragon from the four Shadow Guards suddenly stood out and coldly rebuked Mu Yan. "Previously, the Emperor sent us to find Crown Prince and said that he has something to tell us. Now that Crown Prince has returned, how could the Emperor be missing again? I'm afraid Martial Prince is lying. "
However, what answered him was Mu Yan's clear slap. Slowly withdrawing his right hand, Mu Yan could not help but squint his eyes. Instead of being angry, he laughed. "I am talking to Crown Prince. How can a small guard like you interrupt me? Step down!"
The Azure Dragon's expression turned ugly, but it held back its anger. At this moment, Mu Han looked at it indifferently, waved his hand and said, "Azure Dragon, step down. "
After hearing Mu Han's words, the Azure Dragon retreated to the side with a gloomy face.
"Since it's Royal Father's order, Mu Han can only obey it. " Everyone didn't expect Mu Han to give up so easily, because this matter seemed to be wrong no matter how they looked at it. Even Mu Yan's eyes flashed with a trace of astonishment. Obviously, he didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
"Royal Father, you should rest in the palace. I will come and pay my respects to you another day!"
After saying that, Mu Han turned around and left first. Gu Xing and the others were puzzled by what they saw, but they could only chase after him. Only Mu Yan looked at Mu Han's back as he left, and a trace of seriousness flashed across his eyes.
