Chapter 1237 Golden Cage (70)

There was a slight noise outside the palace, and then the door was opened.

She didn't care, thinking it was a palace maid who came in, and closed her eyes again.

Until the man reached out and touched her face.

Shen Mubai frowned, endured it, and pretended to be asleep.

A pair of big hands slipped under the quilt and held hers.

With a slightly rough thin cocoon, it is warm, as if it is going to burn people's heart, making people tremble for no reason.

Shen Mubai frowned and suppressed his anger, "Third brother, I hope you respect me."

The man held her hand slightly tighter.

Shen Mu was in pain and couldn't help but open her eyes. This time, she was the first to be stunned.

"Sister Ninth, I'm back." The handsome face of the visitor came into view. After not seeing each other for a long time, the original skin color turned into a light bronze, the lines on the face became deeper and deeper, and under the high bridge of the nose, there was a sharp thin lip. And those dark eyes were looking at her intently at the moment, unable to see the edge at a glance.

Shen Mubai was really a little stupid. It took him a while to find his voice, "Wen Renren?"

Wen Renzhen touched her face and said lightly, "She's sick and has lost weight."

His voice was hoarse, and his eyes were so dark and heart-stopping.

Shen Mubai should have been happy. After all, Wenren's return meant that the capital was saved, but she felt inexplicably uneasy, "...when did you come back?"

Wen Renyu's eyes lingered on her body. He raised his eyes and said, "Hurry up and return to the capital today."

This short sentence overshadowed the hardships, worries, anger and various emotions along the way.

Shen Mubai opened his mouth, "Second brother and third brother?"

Wen Renyi said calmly, "All those rebels have been imprisoned."

He was calm and gentle, but the suppressed look in his eyes made people feel chilly at the back.

Shen Mubai hesitated for a moment, then slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

No matter what happens to the court in the future, with General Murong here, he will never watch the palace become a mess.

But she still doesn't know that there is no choice in the current situation. Wen Renzhen is destined to become the emperor of this country.

The situation was reversed, and the turbulent capital was calmed down.

Shen Mubai was placed in Hua'an Palace and reunited with Concubine Rong.

But even though there was an imperial doctor, Concubine Rong's heart ailment had already declined, and her emaciated body was not getting better.

She touched Shen Mubai's cheek and said softly, "Unexpectedly, it was your fifth brother who saved this capital in the end."

She sighed, remembering that the other party had been good to Luo'er since childhood, but she prevented the two from getting along. After all, Wen Renzhen still had feelings for Luo'er, perhaps because of his childhood kindness. But no matter what, she felt relieved that Luo'er could be protected by the other party.

Shen Mubai was surprised, "Has General Murong not returned to Beijing yet?"

Concubine Rong said with an ugly face, "General Murong was ambushed when the Xiongnu retreated. Before leaving, he handed over the military power to Wen Renzhen."

Chen Mubai was slightly stunned.

Concubine Rong sighed and said, "Now that the court has become like this, the people's morale is in great chaos. Among the princes, only Wen Renren is the one who can take on such a big responsibility."

Shen Mubai looked at the pale Concubine Rong and couldn't help but said, "Concubine, please rest in peace and recuperate."

"Concubine Mother is fine, but it's you." Concubine Rong said resentfully, "I won't let him have an easy time."

After all, Concubine Rong still loves the emperor. Half of her eyes are dead, and the rest is living on her daughter.
