He Yan was relieved and asked Hongqiao to combed her hair again. After changing her clothes and washing her, she followed Xiao Jue to the door of Cui Mansion. While walking, she asked Xiao Jue in a low voice: "Governor, why did you say that my master is your martial arts master?"

He also said "Yunlin Layman" rather than "Liu Buying".

Xiao Jue raised his eyebrows: "Your master seems very reluctant to reveal his identity. If you say that he is my master, at least he can save people from doubt."

As He Yan was thinking, he suddenly heard Xiao Jue say, "But your master has a very difficult identity, and it seems that he is an old acquaintance with the princess."

He Yan was horrified: "How could it be?"

"He looked at Mu Xiaolou, as if he was looking at other people through Mu Xiaolou. If he guessed correctly, he should be the princess." Xiao Jue said slowly: "Why don't you know anything, you are an apprentice?"

"He didn't tell me anything!" He Yan could not hide his shock. Liu Buying and Mu Hongjin were old acquaintances? This was the most shocking news I heard today! But He Yan vaguely felt that what Xiao Jue said might be true. Liu Buying's gentle doting to Mu Xiaolou, the sadness in the sound of the piano, and the refusal to go to the palace with Cui Yuezhi. The lines seemed to indicate one thing, at least Liu Buying and the Mu family were not completely unrelated.

But what is the relationship?

This question was not answered, and Cui Yuezhi had already urged them to set out to the royal palace.

Mu Xiaolou was sitting in a soft sedan chair, while He Yan and his group were sitting in a carriage. Cui Yuezhi personally escorted the guards, all of whom were armoured and swords. It was probably because Mu Xiaolou said just now that he was kidnapped by thieves yesterday, which made people feel that Jiyang City was not as harmonious and safe as it seemed.

The royal mansion is on the north side of the center of Jiyang City, covering a very wide area. As soon as he arrived at the gate of the mansion, soldiers came up to interrogate. Cui Yuezhi took them into the royal mansion and took Mu Xiaolou in first, asking He Yan and Xiao Jue to wait in the outer hall, and then call them in later.

He Yan and Xiao Jue sat in the outer hall, bored, and He Yan asked Xiao Jue: "Governor, do you know the daughter of Mengji?"

"I don't know much." Xiao Jue said lazyly: "I only know that King Mengji had a son and a daughter, and his eldest son died before the eighteenth year. At that time, King Mengji was not in a very stable position."

If you are not in a stable position, you need to unite forces to consolidate. Your Majesty is kind to the government, but there are always confidants who don’t like the power of the vassal kings, and they want to disappear all the vassal kings of the Great Wei.

In the end, the daughter of Mengji married the son of an important official in the court. The husband of the king was a member of the court and could monitor whether Jiyang was rebellious at any time. It was precisely because of this that Mengji King preserved his status as a vassal king.

However, the son of the courtier, the husband of the Queen of Mengji, died of illness shortly after the Queen of Mengji gave birth to a son. Their son also had the same problems as his father, and his daughter passed away when she was young. Therefore, in the Mengji Palace, there are actually only the queen Mu Hongjin and her granddaughter Mu Xiaolou.

He Yan was not very curious about Mu Hongjin, but after Xiao Jue said that, he knew that this person might have been an old acquaintance with Liu Buying, so he developed some expectations, wanting to know who had appeared in Liu Buying's past life. Liu Buying was so good at Mu Xiaolou. A man and a little girl were good. If it weren't for his gentle nature, it was very likely that it was because of this little girl's relatives.

After they sat for a while, a maid with a gauze dressed with braids came forward with a smile and said, "Please come with me, your highness, you are going to see you."

He Yan and Xiao Jue got up and walked in with the maid.

As soon as I entered the palace, I realized that the palace was larger and spacious than outside, and it was magnificent. The colors were mainly chiaki, and the railings and pillars in the palace were carved with myths and legends about the water gods. In the backyard of the palace, there was even a bronze statue, carved into a naked goddess who was traveling in the sea merchants with Kun.

It is hot in Jiyang, so there is no need for Liangzhou to be bitter and cold. It is spring. When the sun is sunny in the morning, it is also a bit hot. Copper basins with ice are placed in all corners of the courtyard, so they don’t feel hot, cool and pleasant. As for the flowers, plants and cereals, they feel like Jiyang City, they are prosperous and lively, and arrogant.

After walking through the courtyard and passing through the corridor, the maid stopped at His Highness and smiled and said, "Please come in, two of you."

He Yan and Xiao Jue stepped in, and they felt a sudden enlightenment in front of them.

The hall is very wide, with columns carved with water gods at all corners, and above the head is painted with auspicious patterns of cloud patterns. A thin blanket is covered with veil, as clear as veil, with some gold and shimmering light. For a moment, He Yan felt that the legendary Dragon Palace was probably like this.

With a mysterious beauty of wild growth.

There is a main seat in the hall and a side seat next to it, but there is no one on it at this moment. Isn’t the princess here?

While He Yan was puzzled, he heard footsteps from someone behind the palace, and then someone walked out from the high seat behind the palace.

This is a very beautiful woman.

She is very tall, very thin, and is already a little older, but she does not show any beauty's old posture. She is wearing a red robe, with gold thread embroidered with waves, her hair is woven into a braid, and she is only wrapped around her head, wearing a small golden crown. Her skin is extremely white, her eyes are extremely dark, her eyes are a little red at the end of her eyes, her facial features are gorgeous and deep, but her expression is a little cold. Even if there is a smile on the corner of her lips, the smile is still high, like a bright and cold frost flower that is standing on a cliff, she can only be seen from a distance and cannot be seen from a distance.

It is hard to see a woman with such a formidable aura. She is already very beautiful, but her arrogance makes her beauty a burden.

Mu Hongjin slowly walked out, sat down on the high seat in the middle, and looked down at He Yan and the others.

He Yan pulled Xiao Jue's clothes a little, lowered his head, and said respectfully: "Yu Yan has seen Your Highness."

No one answered for a while.

Just when He Yan thought Mu Hongjin was going to continue to remain silent, Mu Hongjin spoke, and her voice was also very cold, gorgeous and unrestrained, and it was a little bit embracing to people's hearts.
