Chapter 1386 Conflict with King Ding

Because of Wang Yue's reminder and her own cleverness, when Mu Zhuohua heard that the emperor was going to write about ruling by inaction, she discovered that Wang Yue had just discussed such a policy with her, and even cited Song Renzong as an example to her. After learning the example, he picked up his pen and started dictating it quickly.

It's just a pity that although she finished writing early, the Yantai on the table fell inexplicably. If she hadn't followed Wang Yue to learn martial arts and reacted quickly, she helped her the moment she fell. The papers will all be stained.

But it's not much better now. The paper in her hand has been finished, and there is no way to write another one.

So, Mu Zhuohua took the Hui Yuan examination well, but he was stained with disgrace in front of the palace. Fortunately, the emperor was more merciful. Seeing that he was really young, he took the half-stained examination paper and read it roughly. I was very appreciative in my heart, so I gave her a first-class twenty-one, which is the last one in the first class.

However, he was not directly awarded an official position. Mu Zhuohua was asked to serve in the Hanlin Academy, where he could study hard for a while and exercise his courage.

Wang Yue had already guessed that Mu Zhuohua would most likely be detained in the Hanlin Academy, but what he didn't expect was that it would be because of the lack of etiquette in front of the palace.

He looked at the unhappy Mu Zhuohua at the palace gate, and deliberately pretended to be curious and asked, "The food at Qiong Lin Banquet is not delicious? Why is he looking like this?"

Guo Juli was also ordered over by Wang Yue, and he said excitedly, "Miss, can you tell me what delicious food is in the Qionglin Banquet? The master said there is dragon liver and phoenix gallbladder, is it true? ?”

Mu Zhuohua was amused by Guo Juli, and her depressed mood was swept away. She patted Guo Juli's head and said angrily, "Why are you so stupid? The emperor said that he is the real dragon emperor, and the queen is True Phoenix, how could I give you a dragon and a phoenix to eat?"

When Guo Juli saw what Mu Zhuohua said, he looked at Wang Yue and said with some complaint, "Master, how could you lie to Juli? I just thought that the young lady would definitely sneak some for me if she was so kind to me."

Seeing Guo Juli's pitiful look, Mu Zhuohua said helplessly, "Okay, don't coax me with A Yue. The current situation is good, I will stay in the Hanlin Academy for three years."

Seeing that Mu Zhuohua's mood had stabilized, Wang Yue asked with some confusion, "What's going on? We were at the gate of the palace. I heard that you had behaved inappropriately in front of the palace. Fortunately, the emperor was generous and just looked at it. Your test paper gave you the last place in the first class, what happened?"

Mu Zhuohua told what happened during the palace examination, and then asked with some confusion, "I'm sure I didn't touch the inkstone, and I don't know who wants to harm me?"

Wang Yue thought about it for a moment, then said with some uncertainty, "I guess it's more likely that King Ding will do it, and it's impossible for others to tamper with the palace exam."

Mu Zhuohua didn't believe what Wang Yue said, and asked in confusion, "Isn't that right? Prince Ding is very optimistic about me. During the Hairpin Poetry Meeting, he and the eldest prince discussed my story with me. As for the strategy, he admired me very much."

Wang Yue shook his head helplessly, smiled and said consolingly, "The people who dare to take action in the palace examination are none other than the Emperor Dingwang and three other princes. The emperor ruled it out first, and the eldest prince was also impossible, leaving only Dingwang and the second prince. The three princes, these two little princes have no chance of winning in front of the eldest prince. At this time, we don’t dare to let anyone catch us, and only Prince Ding is left with some suspicion."

Guo Juli was a little confused. She said in disbelief, "But didn't the lady just say that King Ding was very optimistic about her?"

Wang Yue sighed and said helplessly, "Prince Ding is in poor health and has no heirs of his own. He probably doesn't have the throne in his heart. I heard that he has a better relationship with the eldest prince. Maybe he wants to protect you and doesn't want you to To be in the limelight at this time.”

After hearing Wang Yue's comfort, Mu Zhuohua's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly, "You mean that Prince Ding wants to leave me to the eldest prince, and after the eldest prince takes power, he will The prince promoted me?"

Wang Yue nodded and said with certainty, "After all, you are a woman. The emperor simply does not have the courage to ask you to become a parent official. After all, Daxi has no precedent for this."

Only then did Mu Zhuohua understand what Wang Yue meant. She needed to prove her strength first, and then she would have a chance to go somewhere. Of course, it is also possible that after proving himself, he will stay in the center of the imperial court.

Wang Yue was driving the carriage, and several people were talking as they walked, but they were stopped just as they arrived at the entrance of an alley.

Wang Yue looked at the person who came, then frowned and asked, "I seem to have seen you next to Prince Ding, but why does Prince Ding want to see me?"

The young man with a serious face said very coldly, "Our prince, please ask Mu Hanlin to move. The prince has something to say to Mu Hanlin."

Wang Yue raised his eyebrows. He hated being spoken to in such a tone. In addition, King Ding had just bullied Mu Zhuohua today, so he said with a cold face, "It's too late today. It's not convenient for a man and a woman alone." !”

The little brother didn't expect that Wang Yue would dare to refuse King Ding's summons and talk to him like this. Without thinking, he drew his sword out of its sheath, snorted coldly and said, "Bold!"

Seeing him draw his sword, Ma Zhong, who had been following Wang Yue silently, drew his sword at the same time and rushed forward without waiting for Wang Yue's orders.

Mu Zhuohua didn't expect that Wang Yue would dare to confront a prince, so he quickly smoothed things over and said, "A Yue, it's okay. I'm just going over to talk."

Wang Yue snorted coldly, then decisively refused and said, "No! I am your fiancé. I allow you to serve as an official in the court, but I will not allow you to have a private meeting with a man."

The reason why he is not afraid of a prince at this time is entirely because he is sure to ensure the safety of himself and Mu Zhuohua.

Now that a secret hand has been deployed near Mount Tai, he has the power of faith and can use Wujian. At worst, he will become a bandit. He is not too familiar with the place and has no worries about encirclement and suppression by the army.

Mu Zhuohua didn't understand what Wang Yue meant. She thought Wang Yue was just jealous, so she quickly asked, "Brother holding the sword, look, it's too late. Can I let my fiancé accompany me?" ?”

He held the sword but ignored Mu Zhuohua. When he saw Ma Zhong blocking his way, he seemed to want to test him, so he immediately stabbed Ma Zhong first.

Ma Zhong was only loyal to Wang Yue. He didn't care who the other party belonged to, not even the emperor, let alone the prince. Seeing that the other party was ruthlessly attacking, he became even more ruthless towards the sword-wielding subordinate of King Ding. Go away from the vital point.

The two of them were fighting each other, and for a while no one could win over the other, and both of them were very worried.

As if hearing the movement here, a carriage slowly drove out of the darkness and stopped not far from Zhijian and Ma Zhong.

Wang Yue looked at the shape of the carriage and knew it was the carriage of King Ding. He had no intention of saluting, and just waited for King Ding to speak.

After a while, Ma Zhong and Zhi Jian in the field had not yet decided the winner. As if he could see Ma Zhong's true level, King Ding finally said, "Hold the sword and stand down!"

Holding the sword, he wanted to retreat at this time, but he was on par with Ma Zhong. Ma Zhong was trained as a secret guard and would not stop just because you want to.

Therefore, when Ma Zhong was holding the sword and retreating back, he stabbed the sword in the throat without mercy.

Just when the tip of Ma Zhong's sword was about to hit the holding sword, another young man in front of Ding Wangma came forward, drew his sword and deflected the sword, and then looked at Ma Zhong warily with the holding sword.

Ma Zhong knew that there was no chance now, so he did not make any unnecessary attacks and just waited for Wang Yue's order.

After King Ding saw this scene, he snorted coldly and said, "Wang Yue, I know you are a recently famous knight in the world. How dare you dare to talk to me like this!"

Wang Yue snorted coldly, jumped off the carriage, and said casually, "I only know that you can't kill me. And if you and I conflict, I'm afraid some people in the palace will wake up laughing in their dreams. .”

King Ding thought that Wang Yue could control so many men in a short period of time, and he could also make his men surrender their lives one by one. He didn't know what Wang Yue's backup plan was?

In addition, when he stopped Wang Yue and Mu Zhuohua tonight, he had no intention of conflict at first. He only realized it later because he saw Mu Zhuohua at the Qionglin Banquet, who seemed very pitiful. I felt like I had knocked over the inkstone. For a little girl, the blow was too great.

He felt a little soft-hearted for a moment and wanted to comfort Mu Zhuohua, but he didn't expect that Mu Zhuohua didn't object yet and was stopped by Wang Yue anyway.

Looking at Wang Yue who was very calm, he suddenly had an idea and asked curiously, "Why are you so hostile to me?"

However, Wang Yue did not give Wang Liu face at all, and said very straightforwardly, "It is not an easy thing for a woman from my family, Mu Zhuohua, to reach this point in the imperial examination. It was not easy for her to go all the way. When it comes to the palace examination, you actually tampered with the palace examination. This is to destroy Mu Zhuohua, why can't we be hostile to you!"

King Ding didn't expect that Wang Yue not only guessed his little moves, but also said it so straightforwardly, which made him a little embarrassed. He quickly explained, "I just saw Mu Zhuohua as a woman, and it was too much." He's young, I just don't want him to be too out of the spotlight."

Wang Yue rolled his eyes and said with disdain, "You are trying to deceive an ignorant child with your words. If Mu Zhuohua's mentality is even a little worse, his lifelong struggle may be ruined just because of one action of yours. You have a habit of being aloof. But they don’t know that the people below need to work very hard to survive!”

Mu Zhuohua didn't cry when she was framed in the imperial examination; she didn't cry when she was ridiculed while waiting for His Majesty to arrange her ranking; she didn't cry when she was ignored at the Qionglin Banquet, but after hearing Wang Yue's words, her tears It flowed out uncontrollably.

Since the death of her mother-in-law, no one has ever protected her from the wind and rain. She needs to be careful and careful in order to survive in the Mu family.

Now that Wang Yue had scolded a prince for her sake, Mu Zhuohua let go of her last guard. She felt that she was very lucky to have met someone who loved and cared for her so much.

After hearing Wang Yue's words, King Ding was a little disapproving and said very grandly, "With my guarantee, how can anything happen!"
