Chapter 401 What do you want to say
In Mu Chengyan's view, this is a cooperation.
But in Chen Guangzhi's view, this is his fate.
"My daughter," Chen Guangzhi went to find Chen Meihua after dinner. "Don't you like Xie Jingmo? There's no need to settle for second best. How about I go find Xie Jingmo and ask him to marry you as his concubine?"
In Chen Guangzhi's opinion, Xie Jingmo's bottom line is much higher than Mu Chengyan's.
If I could only choose one of these two people.
He would rather choose Xie Jingmo.
Chen Meihua shook her head. "Forget it. Xie Jingmo doesn't have me in his heart. Even if I become his concubine, he won't even look at me straight in the eye. In fact, I gave up before. Xie Jingmo went to Xiongnu for so many years for the Queen Mother. There must be no other woman in his heart who can replace him. So, I'd better choose Mu Chengyan."
Chen Guangzhi knew that it would be in vain no matter how much he tried to persuade her.
Chen Guangzhi sighed deeply, "Okay, then Mu Chengyan, as long as you are happy, everything is fine."
That night.
Chen Guangzhi handed the young emperor's wet nurse to Mu Chengyan, and then said to Mu Chengyan: "I am going to prepare for your marriage with the girl. The fifteenth of this month is a good day. Then, you can come and marry my daughter."
Mu Chengyan raised his head and looked at Chen Guangzhi with a smile, "You seem to have forgotten something."
Chen Guangzhi's heart trembled.
Mu Chengyan said, "Come with me to the palace tonight and find the young emperor. Have him write his will and hang it behind the plaque that reads 'Zhengda Guangming'."
Just get it all done.
The little emperor can die, and so can the Chen family.
Chen Guangzhi's face turned pale. "Can't you just do this yourself? I'm your uncle after all. How can I threaten him with his nanny's life?"
Mu Chengyan remained unmoved and said coldly, "Whether you do it or not, you've already done it, haven't you? Let's go."
That day.
The weather is bad.
Dark.
It looks like it's going to rain heavily.
Mu Chengyan was wearing a black cloak and walking towards the palace in the cold wind.
Chen Guangzhi walked to the back and looked at Mu Chengyan's cold and solemn figure, and felt a chill in his heart.
Push open the door of the little emperor's room.
Mu Chengyan pushed Chen Guangzhi in and stood at the door as if it had nothing to do with him, just like last time.
Chen Guangzhi turned his head to look at Mu Chengyan and felt that this man was really cold-blooded.
He seemed to enjoy watching other people's pain and struggle.
Build your own happiness on the collapse of others.
Can such a person really be a good match?
Chen Guangzhi once again fell into deep worry.
There is no light in the room.
The little emperor seemed to know they were coming and sat down on the edge of the bed.
This was the first time Chen Guangzhi saw the little emperor sitting like this.
He was wearing a golden dragon robe.
The little face looked very white in the moonlight coming through the window.
Chen Guangzhi was startled. After seeing clearly, he patted his chest and asked, "Why are you sitting up?"
The little emperor smiled, which made Chen Guangzhi feel a chill in his heart.
"My uncle is here, please sit down."
Chen Guangzhi sat down.
The little emperor said softly, "My uncle always comes late at night, and I never seem to see his face clearly. Please light the candle so I can take a good look at you."
Chen Guangzhi went to light the candles.
At the same time, I feel creepy.
Chen Guangzhi lit the candles and sat down opposite the little emperor.
"Uncle wants to talk to me about something, right?"
Chen Guangzhi pursed his lips and glanced at the door. Mu Chengyan was standing by the door, casually fiddling with the sachet in his hand.
Chen Guangzhi had no choice but to turn back and said, "Yes, there is something I want to discuss with you."
The little emperor laughed, "Uncle, have you heard that people can place curses before they die?"
When Chen Guangzhi heard this, he almost fell to the ground in fright!
"ah?"
"Uncle, tell me, if I die, who should be cursed?"
Chen Guangzhi's heart trembled, and he immediately stood up, "Well, it has nothing to do with my uncle, don't blame my uncle."
The little emperor smiled and pointed at the person standing by the door, "Then let him come in and talk to me."
Chen Guangzhi followed the little emperor's gesture and saw Mu Chengyan standing at the door.
Mu Chengyan raised his eyebrows and walked in.
"I've heard some things about you and my mother before." The little emperor spoke first. Mu Cheng Yansheng was tall, and when he walked in, he blocked part of the moonlight in the room, making the room seem a little darker.
However, the little emperor did not seem afraid, and Chen Guangzhi was quite surprised by this.
Mu Chengyan was the teacher of the late emperor. He had a sense of majesty and intimidation. Many people in the court were afraid of Mu Chengyan, but the little emperor was not afraid.
With her fresh little face, she looked at Mu Chengyan and said, "I heard that you stayed in my mother's palace for a while."
Mu Chengyan didn't like discussing the matter between him and Yun Zhao with others, especially since the other party was a child that he could crush to death with one hand.
"Yes." Mu Chengyan's eyes were cold. "How?"
The little emperor smiled gently. "Although I have never seen you with my mother, I know from the moment I see you that even if my mother once had feelings for you, she would never establish a long-term relationship with you. She would definitely give up on you in the end."
The little emperor smiled leisurely, "Or rather, she has given up on you now. Compared to you, I am more optimistic about Xie Jingmo."
Mu Chengyan narrowed his eyes slightly, sending out a dangerous signal.
Chen Guangzhi, who was standing by, was so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe.
"I know you took my wet nurse away."
The little emperor didn't even look at Chen Guangzhi. "If I remember correctly, my wet nurse is also a member of the Chen family. Mu Chengyu, you are very good at exploiting people's weaknesses to achieve your own goals, but one day you will understand that in this world, everything can be calculated, but you can't calculate the human heart."
Mu Chengyan scoffed, "Is that so? I won't worry about it in the future. Right now, I'm looking at the wet nurse who raised you. Can you let her go?"
The little emperor shook his head.
Without a moment's hesitation.
"I can't."
Mu Chengyan smiled more and more proudly.
The little emperor looked at Mu Chengyan and asked him, "Do you have a weakness?"
Mu Chengyu snorted coldly, "Of course not."
The little emperor was confused for a moment, "What about the Queen Mother? Isn't she enough to be your weakness?"
Mu Chengyan was silent.
If there is a cliff in front, whether he jumps or Yun Zhao jumps, this is indeed a problem that needs to be considered.
"If it's Xie Jingmo, I think he would have the answer without even thinking about it."
Mu Chengyan frowned.
The little emperor had already taken out the yellow imperial edict from behind his back. "Here is what you want. I hope you are a man who keeps your promise and release my wet nurse."
Mu Chengyan took the imperial edict and saw the words on it.
He curled his lips and smiled smugly.
"You've said so much, but you still gave up the principles you uphold because of me."
Mu Chengyan stared at the little emperor sitting on the edge of the bed, "And the price you pay for giving up your principles is—"
When Chen Guangzhi heard these profound words, he suddenly turned around and stared at Mu Chengyan in a daze.
He was startled and immediately asked, "What are you going to say?!"
