They were tired after walking all the way, so they found an inn to stay. After they settled their luggage, Murong Xue and Mo Nian ate in the lobby downstairs. During the meal, they listened to the discussion about eating in this restaurant one after another.

What they talked about was the tax increase today, saying: "Hey, the sudden increase in taxation has made the common people miserable. Originally, the harvest of this crop was not good this year, and they still have to pay such a large tax," they said. Up to now, no one showed reluctance on their faces. Murong Xue was listening quietly, but she held the chopsticks of the mobile phone very tightly.

They kept mentioning one person, and that was the city lord of this city. Murongxue came here this time because of an unannounced visit, so the city lord naturally didn't come to welcome him, so they heard people say: "The city lord of this city is so dependent on power There is no humanity at all, and she also accepts bribes and judges cases indiscriminately, and she has several unjust, false and wrongly decided cases in her hands."

Murong Xue has a straightforward temper, and she really puts the people first, just hearing that person's discussion, her face immediately sank, and she threw her chopsticks on the table, until she lost her appetite to eat any more.

Murong Xue could be regarded as keeping her composure, she lowered her temper and listened quietly with her sideways face. After a while, she waved her hand and summoned an attendant.

"Lan Feng, go, inquire about what the man said, and ask why!"

Murong Xue said in a low voice, no one could hear it, the anger in her tone, the attendant hurriedly ran to ask something, Murong Xue couldn't hear clearly, so she just played with herself Pick up the chopsticks in your hand.

Lan Feng pretended to be curious and passed by the woman, and said with interest: "Just now I heard that you were angry, what's the matter, can you tell me?"

"This...you don't know something." The man paused tentatively, seeing that Lan Feng remained calm, he continued.

"Recently, a great event has happened here!" The man was a little agitated when he spoke, clapping his fingers and pointing to the ground angrily.

"There is a well-known wealthy businessman named Liu in this place. His daughter has always been domineering and domineering. Others don't look down on her. Even ordinary people like us are scared to detour..." The woman seemed to be happier as she talked, not only her expression It was so rich that I was so excited that I stood up and gestured twice.

Lan Feng quietly listened to her say a few words, and she was a little impatient, but in order to show respect, she straightened her clothes, stretched out her hand to ask the person to sit down, and then sat down again to continue listening.

"A few days ago, the strong woman of the Liu family fell in love with the male wife of a poor girl. If you want to say that the male wife is also famous for her beauty..." the woman said eloquently, her face He also showed a silly expression.

"Girl, don't you want to laugh at the villain, if you want to see that husband and wife, you must look like this!" The woman looked at Lan Feng staring at herself, and explained a little embarrassedly.

"Don't dare...you continue to talk." Lan Feng was a little embarrassed when he heard this. She followed Murong Xue since she was a child, and she hadn't thought about not having a wife before, so she responded in a daze.

"If you say that the person Chen's strong woman likes, I'm afraid she won't be able to escape, and if she gave it to her for nothing, it's just an end, but that poor girl has a strong temper, and she is very affectionate with that man... "The woman became nervous as she spoke, and even Lan Feng could sense that the foreshadowing ahead was finally coming to an end.

"This... the strong women of the Liu family actually killed that poor girl after all this going on and on!" The woman looked at Lan Feng as she spoke, and Lan Feng seemed to be very cooperative, showing a surprised expression.

When the woman saw Lan Feng's reaction, she probably felt that it was because of her wonderful speech, and the smile on her face became three points thicker, "If you think it's over here, you're wrong!"

"The poor girl's old mother filed a complaint with the city lord, but who knows..." The woman paused just right, which made Lan Feng a little puzzled, and hurriedly asked: "What's the matter?"

"The city owner was bought by the Liu family... This case has been fruitless until now."

Lan Feng thanked the speaker, hurried back to Murong Xue's side, and said in a low voice: "Just now that person said that there was a wealthy businessman of Liu sex nearby, who robbed the husband and wife of a poor girl and killed him. A poor girl, her old mother sued the city lord, but... but the city lord seems to be in collusion with a rich businessman, and this matter has not been judged for a long time."

After hearing this, Murong Xue couldn't help herself, and was about to get up when she patted the table. She was very surprised. Although she was in the royal family since she was a child, she had experienced many such things, but no matter what, she kept them hidden. Now Outside the city, the aboveboard harming people...is it so chaotic?
"It's abominable, such absurd things can happen in our Snow Country! The city lord colluded with the powerful and oppressed the common people, he's so tired of his life!" Murong Xue was used to being bold and unrestrained when he spoke, and his posture was shocking. Everyone who was eating at the table next to him looked sideways.

Seeing this situation, Mo Nian quietly gave Murong Xue a look, which was really like a miracle medicine, and quickly calmed her down.

"It's just that person's one-sided words, and it may be embellished. Why don't you go and visit the poor mother who lost her daughter?" Mo Nian said calmly from the side, "You have to understand it first before making a decision."

Murong Xue looked at Mo Nian with great interest, this man was indeed different from those weak men, he was thoughtful and considerate.

"Forget it, then I'll listen to you, and I'll go see the mother-in-law who lost her daughter first." Murong Xue stood up after speaking, beckoned her subordinates to hand over the money to the shopkeeper, and the group left in a hurry.

Along the way, Murong Xue was a little displeased. When she thought of the city lord here colluding with the powerful and bullying the common people, she couldn't control the anger factor in her heart, but because Mo Nian was by her side, she always wanted to restrain herself.Murong Xue thought about it, and smiled foolishly, since when did she start acting like a shy man.

"Master... there seems to be someone in front of us, blocking our way!"

An alarm dragged Murong Xue back, she shook her head, trying to wake herself up, and then said leisurely after a long while: "Follow me and have a look!"

He heard his voice before seeing him, the further he walked, the more clearly he could hear the group of people, it seemed that there was the sound of whips... After turning around the corner, everything became clear.

A woman was standing in front of a truckload of goods, beating a man with a whip. It looked like she was a villain bullying a trader. Murong Xue smiled, since she was bumped into by her, she must be dealt with...

Murong Xue was inspecting outside, but the excitement in the palace did not decrease by half. It was the Queen's birthday, and all civil and military officials were facing the Queen. After celebrating the birthday, they were discussing how to make the evening banquet more lively.

Murong Shuang thought quietly, this banquet might be a wonderful opportunity, some suggestions at the right time would not only make the empress value her more, maybe even win her back...

Murong Shuang thought about it and knelt in front of the queen to salute, and her voice resounded through the entire hall, "The Queen Mother's birthday, the kindness of the world, the picture is just a lively scene, why not let all the lovers bring their families into the palace to celebrate together? To show His Majesty's kindness, virtue and love, to show the Queen's great kindness!"

Although the empress was sitting on the dragon chair on the high platform, she was only three steps away from Murong Shuang. She could hear her daughter's words clearly. After getting along with her for so many years, she naturally understood what she was thinking, and agreed without even thinking about it." Forget it, what Shuang'er said is right, all the lovers will bring their relatives into the palace tonight, and they will also enjoy the joy of this birthday with me!"

After the empress finished speaking, all the ministers knelt down and thanked the empress for her gift. Taking advantage of this time, Murong Shuang walked into Murong Ya quietly, and whispered in her ear: "Daughter, I heard that there is a rare gift in the female prime minister's house." It's just that women love their wives like life, and the sons and ministers are miserable..."

Feng Youyou stood at His Highness and looked up, she saw Murong Shuang whispering something in the Queen's ear, she rolled her eyes quietly, this woman, she has figured it out a long time ago, what kind of calculations are being made now, how could she I don't know?
Although Feng Youyou has seen through Murongshuang's little tricks, she is still a little helpless, who made her just a woman, unable to control the woman on the stage.

Feng Youyou hadn't finished complaining, when she heard what she didn't want to hear, the clear voice of the queen in the hall sounded, "I heard that there is a peerless beauty in the female minister's house... don't hide it now, and attract people together for you!" I wish you a happy birthday!"

Feng Youyou lazily knelt down, and lazily made a promise.

Feng Youyou went back to the house and changed his clothes, and ordered his servants to call Yixuan, Yixuan was a little panicked after hearing this, and said that he still needs to dress up, Feng Youyou jokingly said, "This beauty still needs to be dressed up? The clothes have been prepared for you, hurry up and change, and you will enter the palace in half an hour."

Yixuan stood still, staring at the unhappy Feng Youyou absentmindedly, he felt as if he had caused some trouble for her, he was never nervous, but she was so unhappy, maybe it was because he was afraid of Murongshuang snatch yourself away?
Yixuan laughed out loud thinking about it, but was surprised by Feng Youyou who was changing clothes beside him, "What are you laughing at? This banquet is not fun..."

The two hurriedly changed their clothes, tidied up carefully, and then got into the prepared carriage. Yixuan looked at the wind leisurely and was a little displeased. He wanted to break the quiet atmosphere, and after thinking about it, he said, "Yes. Is there anything to order?"

When Feng Youyou was asked such a question, she suddenly came back to her senses, looked at Yixuan and smiled, and said word by word: "Indeed there is, if you don't mention it, I'm afraid I'll forget it..."

"There are a lot of people in the palace, talk less, don't make trouble!"

"When you see the empress and other adults, you have to salute like me. You know these etiquettes..."

"The most important thing is to stay away from that woman Murongshuang."

Feng Youyou couldn't stop talking, looking at Yixuan with earnest eyes, Yixuan was actually a little moved when he saw it.

After a long while, Yixuan squeezed out two words: "No problem,"

After thinking about it, he added: "Young lady just take care of herself, don't worry about me."

Yixuan's words seemed to have magical powers, Feng Youyou slowly calmed down, the carriage stopped at this time, and the two of them were about to get off together, when they arrived at the main gate of the palace, ordinary carriages were not allowed to enter, and the empress gave them a special gift. Feng Youyou can enter on horseback, but she is always unwilling to show off.

The two came earlier, there was still some time before the dinner party, and there were not many people at the main entrance, Feng Youyou just thought it would be great, she didn't need to greet other adults, she was always bothered by this.

However, God is always unwilling to fulfill Feng Youyou's thoughts. As soon as the two got out of the carriage, they saw a familiar figure head-on.

That figure, although thin but straight, rode a horse and looked here from a distance, and saw Feng Youyou and the other at a glance.
