Rebirth: Missing the Beloved

When they heard this, all the princes in the imperial court were filled with anticipation. They were afraid that the Emperor's entrustment was a hint that the two people he was going to bring up were the candidates for the future Crown Prince.

The Emperor's illness this time around had given Mu Yufeng a huge opportunity, and the one among them would undoubtedly be him.

But who would the other candidate be?

"Your majesty, this subject believes that Prince Mu Xuyang can bear this heavy responsibility." Mu Ling Shao bowed towards the Emperor on the Dragon Throne.

The Emperor nodded with an air of importance as he looked at Mu Xuanyin.

"I believe that only one person in the imperial government can assume the responsibility and be compassionate. Only then will the matter be handled properly." The emperor looked around before speaking to his ministers, "Yu Feng, find a famous doctor to save my life. He can bear the burden. Mu Xuanyang has always been outstanding as well."

The two princes who were called stood up and bowed towards the old emperor.

"Thank you for relying on me, Imperial Father!"

The Imperial Court burst into an uproar once again, and the thoughts of the various officials were more or less formed in their heads. One of the two, Mu Yufeng and Mu Xuanyin, would probably be the new emperor in the future.

It was also a matter that he had to consider which power he should join in the future.

"Alright, I'm tired now. "Let's move on to the next assembly." The emperor rubbed his eyes as he was helped off the throne by Eunuch Huang.

Mu Ling Shao narrowed his eyes as he stared at Mu Yu Feng and Mu Xu Yang. His eyes were filled with an unreadable emotion.

Another few days had passed. The emperor had gone to the palace to take shelter from the heat. The officials didn't need to go to the imperial morning assembly. Naturally, they had more time to rest.

Seeing that Du Mu Zhou was bored, Mu Ling Shao brought her on a tour around the city.

In a country where the national winds were not rigid, a husband could take his married wife for a stroll in the streets, but few people would do that.

Du Mu Zhou had gotten up early in the morning, and it was rare for the two of them to go to the morning market.

"Woodboat, how are you?"

Mu Lingshao waited outside the door for a while before lightly knocking on the door to Du Mu Zhou's room.

Du Muzhou chose a simple white dress with layers of pink at the bottom, more like flower buds.

This set of clothes perfectly supported her fresh temperament, so there was no need to worry about being too complicated affecting her movement.

"It's done." Du Mu Zhou came out from his room.

She clearly saw Mu Lingshao's eyes light up.

"You wear this... "It's very beautiful."

Mu Ling Shao was even a little embarrassed.

She deliberately asked, "Did it not look good in the past?"

Mu Lingshao hurriedly shook his head, "I used to look good too, but I rarely wear it like this."

He, who usually had a cold expression, unexpectedly turned his head away in such an embarrassed manner.

Du Mu Zhou's face revealed a faint smile, but his heart felt incredibly sweet.

She took his hand and said, "Let's go."

The two of them got on the horse carriage and went on their way. They arrived at the busiest morning market in the capital.

There was a long old street inside. Legend has it that the previous emperor had built it since his youth, and it was still in use even now. The world was bustling with activity.

There were quite a few small gadgets for sale here, as well as quite a few jade stalls. There were also quite a few people who had come to pick up the loopholes.

Many craftsmen live on this street for the rest of their lives.

Du Mu Zhou got off the horse carriage and followed Mu Ling Shao to play.

She looked left and right, passing one stall after another. Linlang's goods were too much for her to take in.

"Wooden boat, follow closely." Mu Ling Shao reminded.

Du Mu Zhou lifted his skirt with one hand and answered.

She initially thought that this place was already bustling with life, but who would have thought that Mu Lingshao would drag her away along the way?

"Aren't we going to the morning market? "Why are you in such a hurry to leave?" Du Mu Zhou was somewhat reluctant.

However, Mu Lingshao waved his hand and held her tightly with one hand.

This secretive appearance made Du Mu Zhou feel as if there was a kitten scratching in his heart.

Finally stopping in an alleyway, Mu Lingshao said, "Woodboat, have you bet stones before?"

Du Mu Zhou lowered his body and looked up. In front of him, there were many small stalls filled with all sorts of strange stones.

However, in front of these stalls, there were quite a few people gathered.

She curiously moved closer and at the same time said honestly, "No."

"Then I'll bring you here to play today."

Mu Ling Shao smiled as he led her forward. He weighed a somewhat ugly rock from the booth and spun it in a circle around his white jade-like hand.

Hearing that someone was going to gamble, more and more people began to gather.

Du Mu Zhou stood beside him and reached out his hand to touch the stone he was holding.

"There's jade inside?"

Mu Ling Shao smiled but did not reply.

On the other hand, the people nearby came over to join in the fun. Someone came over to take a look and said to Mu Lingshao, "Little gongzi, the stall you're in doesn't have jade."

He had thought that this person's voice was soft enough, but who knew that the stall owner still heard it.

"What are you doing!?" It's fine if you guys lose the bet, but why are you trying to ruin my business! " The vendor scolded.

Du Mu Zhou looked at him and said, "They said that everything on this stall is fake, how about we go somewhere else?"

Mu Ling Shao shook his head and gave the ore in his hand to the vendor.

"This one. Drive from here."

He extended his hand to the booth owner, gesturing for him to take a seat.

Those people from before widened their eyes, ready to see this rich young master eat his food.

The stall owner accepted the silver, weighed the ore in his hand, and said to him, "Young master, are you sure? "You can't go back on your word after betting."

Mu Ling Shao nodded at him, "I will not go back on my word."

Du Mu Zhou was extremely nervous as he watched the vendor cut open the piece of ore that Mu Ling Shao had given him.

A clear green light flashed in everyone's eyes, and no one had the time to react.

The stall owner brushed off the dust on his jade face and called out, "This … This is high quality! "

Everyone began to shout in excitement. Who would have thought that this young master would have such a vicious gaze?

"Let me see, I want to join in too!"

Everyone rushed forward, pushing against the two of them.

Du Mu Zhou saw himself being pushed out of the crowd and accidentally bumped into someone.

"Sorry, sorry!"

Du Mu Zhou immediately helped him up. He didn't expect her to be a cripple if she knocked over someone.

And the place that Du MuZhou touched him was very soft...

Just like a person without bones!

She could not help but softly cry out. The crippled man felt her panic and quickly left without saying a word.

"What's wrong?"

Mu Lingshao heard her scream and immediately rushed over to surround her.

Du Mu Zhou looked at the figure that was walking away, and he felt a burst of panic in his heart.

"That person was very strange."
