King’s Landing: The Proud Empress

Chapter 535: come as scheduled

  Chapter 535 Come as promised

   Instead of riding in a carriage, he rode on a horse and ran directly outside the palace.

   Seeing this, how could Eunuch Yu be at ease. Immediately ordered the guards to follow Junli.

  Riding a fast horse, like a gust of wind, quickly drove towards the direction of Mu Mansion.

   Along the way, everyone who saw Junli stepped aside and lowered their heads in awe.

  Junli realized later that he was wearing a silver-white dragon robe because he was in a hurry to leave the palace, and he hadn't changed into casual clothes.

  After the fast horse passed by, a group of guards on horseback followed closely, hanging not far behind Junli, looking nervously at the surrounding environment.

  When Jun Li came outside the Mu Mansion, he looked at the guards and attendants who were blocking the gate of the Mu Mansion, and Eunuch Duan was still lying on the soft couch with a relaxed expression on his face. After all, he couldn't help it, and sighed softly.

   I have to say that Jun Li's clothes are extremely conspicuous. In just an instant, the people who had been watching the show gave way one after another.

   Seeing Junli, the guards quickly knelt down, "See Your Majesty!"

   Seeing this, the surrounding people also reacted and quickly knelt down!

  Eunuch Duan, who was lying on the soft couch and was about to close his eyes to rest, immediately opened his eyes and turned to look at Junli.

   "Your Majesty, why are you here?" Saying that, she got up and walked towards Junli.

  The servants of the Mu Mansion also knelt down when they saw this. It was just one of them, but sneaked towards the mansion.

   "Get up, everyone." Jun left his mouth, and then looked at Eunuch Duan with helplessness on his face.

   "Your Majesty, that Mu Yao really doesn't know what's good and what's wrong, and dares to resist the order!" Duan Gong said publicly, with a cold killing intent flashing in his eyes.

  Seeing this, Jun Li shook his head, "It's because the Emperor didn't explain it clearly to you."

   After saying that, he walked into the Mu Mansion, and ordered the guards and attendants outside, "Bring in all the betrothal gifts."

  Hearing this, everyone looked at each other. Could it be that His Majesty is planning to buy and sell by force?

   The guards outside Mu's residence had never seen Junli before, or Muli. So at this time, everyone opened their mouths to Junli's words, but they didn't dare to stop them.

  Junli took a few steps, and then said to the servants, "Go and tell Patriarch Mu, and say that you will come as promised, and the dowry has arrived."

  Hearing the words, everyone was puzzled. Several servants were also puzzled, but they still went to inform Mu Yao as they said.

  —

   "Patriarch, it's not good! It's not good!" The servant who had sneaked away before ran over panting, his face flushed.

   Seeing this, Mu Yao's heart sank. Could it be that Mu Li came and clashed with those people outside?

   "What's going on? Slow down." Mu Yao frowned, and couldn't help but reached out and rubbed his forehead.

  The servant took a few breaths and said, "Patriarch, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is here."

  Hearing this, Mu Yao froze, and then said, "Who do you think is here?"

   "Your Majesty, it's just outside the mansion." After the servant finished speaking, he couldn't help wiping the sweat from his forehead.

  At this moment, another servant ran in, "Patriarch, Your Majesty is here."

   Mu Yao nodded, "I already know."

  The servant shook his head and continued, "Your Majesty said, let me tell you, just say that you will come as promised, and the dowry has arrived."

  Hearing this, Mu Yao was stunned. What's the meaning?

   Come as scheduled...

  She has no agreement with His Majesty, and it is still about the dowry.

  Suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he vaguely guessed something.

   "Where is Your Majesty now?" Mu Yao asked, feeling more and more that the guess in his heart was not very likely.

"At the lobby."

   Mu Key nodded, and was about to leave.

  A voice behind her suddenly stopped her, "Sister, I'm going too."

   Mu Yao turned his head and looked at Mu Xiuzhu. Obviously, what she thought of, Xiu Zhu also thought of.

   After pondering for a moment, he nodded and said, "That's fine." As he spoke, he pushed the wheelchair himself and took Mu Xiuzhu to the hall.

   From a distance, there are guards standing outside the hall. The hall was filled with boxes of betrothal gifts, and even the hall couldn't fit in, and some of them were placed outside the hall!

   Seeing this, Mu Yao felt satisfied. Of course, it's just satisfaction with the dowry.

   Entered the hall without encountering the slightest obstacle, when he saw the familiar face sitting on the main seat, wearing a silver-white dragon robe. Mu Yao couldn't help shaking his head slightly in his heart.

   Sure enough, she had underestimated Mu Li too much before.

   No, maybe it should be called Your Majesty now!

  Mu Yao's eyes flickered slightly, and he knelt down and said, "Cao Min sees Your Majesty, Long live Your Majesty, Long live, Long live!"

  Seeing this, Junli hurriedly stood up, stretched out his hand to help Mu Yao up, "We will be a family from now on, sister, you don't have to be polite."

  The call "sister" really startled everyone in the hall.

   Even Mu Yao is no exception!

  In the past, she didn't know Junli's identity, so she called her sister. But now that Junli's status is here, and she still calls her sister in front of so many people, then there is more meaning in it.

  Mu Yao only thought for a moment in his heart, and then he understood the truth. Immediately he raised his head and said to Junli, "How dare the grass people be your majesty's sister? But according to our folk marriage affairs, your majesty has given the dowry now, and Xiuzhu will be yours in the future. According to the logic, it is true You should call Cao Min my sister."

   After saying that, before Eunuch Duan had time to get angry, he said again, "However, His Majesty has a noble status, and the grass people really can't bear this call of sister."

Seeing this, Jun Li said, "From now on, we will be a family, and my sister doesn't have to treat you like this." As he spoke, he turned his eyes to Mu Xiuzhu who was staring blankly at him, and said with a smile, "Why, I haven't seen you in two months , Xiu Zhu doesn’t know me anymore.”

   After the words fell, everyone in the hall realized it. It turns out that His Majesty has known Mu Yao for a long time!

  Mu Xiuzhu lowered his head with a little shyness on his face, his face was slightly red.

  Eunuch Duan was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, what's going on?" Why do they look so familiar?

Hearing this, Jun Li said with a smile, "I forgot to say before, that the Emperor and Patriarch Mu had an agreement long ago to come to give the betrothal gift. It's just that the Emperor has not informed Patriarch Mu of his identity, so there was a previous misunderstanding." Junli attributed everything to a misunderstanding, leaving Eunuch Duan speechless.

   "Do you want to see the dowry?" Jun Li looked at Mu Yao and asked with a smile.

  Mu Yao shook his head, "Your Majesty's betrothal gift is definitely not ordinary. You don't need to look at it."

  Hearing this, Jun Li raised his hand. A servant came over with a dowry list.

  Passing the betrothal gift list to Mu Yao, Jun Li said with a smile, "Then Patriarch Mu will take care of it."

   Mu Key took it, smiled and nodded.

   "I wonder if Patriarch Mu has time? Let's discuss matters about getting married together."
