Chapter 250 The Secret History of the Palace

"That's right, Cai Yan helped me. I can't just sit and watch her being transported around like cargo. Although she lives here quite comfortably, as I said just now, this kind of comfort requires I paid the price. As a woman, I can feel the loneliness and helplessness in her heart." Mutsuki's eyes shot out a light of tenacity unique to women.

"What price?" Zhiming asked knowingly.

Mu Yue didn't answer him, and continued: "Later, I said goodbye to my brother-in-law and came to Yacheng alone. With the help of an expert, I entered the palace and met Cai Yan. She was very surprised when she first met me. For safety reasons, I did not reveal to her the real purpose of my visit, but only asked her to find a way to let me enter the palace as a priest. She then recommended me to Shikibu Daisuke (the official responsible for personnel appointments). Seeing that Cai Yan was accepted For the sake of the prince's favor, and Shenzhi Pavilion just lacked a Shaoyu (a priesthood higher than the assistant priest), Daisuke Shikibu arranged for several people to test me. There is no doubt that I passed Tested, entered the Shenzhi Pavilion."

"You're pretty good. You got into the palace by yourself to become a priest." Zhiming complimented unconsciously.

"That's because I do have talent in this area, and I deserve it. I didn't get in by 'connection', but by ability." Mu Yue corrected his language error.

"Sorry, I used the wrong word." Zhiming apologized, "Don't you know that the prince is from Yidu?"

"I don't know, because Yidu language and Yamatai language are the same, and he can't tell the difference. I made up a reason to make him believe that Cai Yan only knew me after coming to Yamatai country. Moreover, I have gone through many levels. The prince will not disqualify me from serving because of my nationality."

"You thought you would be admired by everyone after becoming a priest, right?" Zhiming winked at her.

"That's right, but my original intention was to save Cai Yan, and I was not greedy for wealth. Later, I realized that things are not that simple..." Mu Yue's face darkened instantly, "It turns out that only female personnel are recruited as priests here, so I have a chance to get in."

"Only recruit female personnel?" Zuo Mu wondered.

"That's right, it's exactly what you imagined. Don't you realize that there are no men in the Shenzhi Pavilion? Excluding the two warriors at the door, from top to bottom, including the deputy director, Dayou, and the assistant priest, are all All women are like a super girl group." Mutsuki's tone was full of resentment.

"It's really not normal. I thought it was what the queen meant." Zhiming had discovered the problem just now.

"No, this is all to satisfy the prince's selfish desires. The Shenzhi Pavilion is not managed by the Taizheng Pavilion. It has an independent organizational system. In principle, it only obeys the queen. The prince seized this opportunity and deliberately recruited only women to serve as priests. The purpose is obvious. Not only Shenzhi Pavilion, but also those kabuki including Cai Yan, have been defiled by the prince. In order to cover up his bestiality, the prince issued a decree a few years ago to incorporate kabuki into The guard of honor was merged into the Shenzhi Pavilion, and was managed by the Shenzhi Division. As long as people who enter the Shenzhi Pavilion are generally considered pure and flawless by the world, they can just let the prince do whatever he wants." Mu Yue said angrily.

"Why didn't you expose him to the queen? Are you just letting this beast do what it wants?" Zhiming's ears burned when he heard that.

"He warned us not to leak it to the outside world, or we would be killed; moreover, we don't want to expose our family ugliness, and we are too ashamed to reveal it, so we can only swallow our own bitterness. But I think the Queen knows a little bit, but she just doesn't want to Just ignore him, after all, he is the co-principal, and he is in charge of many major national affairs. The most important point is that he is the Queen's younger brother, so the Queen just turned a blind eye. In fact, there are still people in the palace who know about this. , I just didn’t dare to come forward to denounce it, for fear of getting burned. A well-behaved Shenzhi Pavilion was completely unrecognizable by him. If I knew it at the time, I might not have joined.” Mu Yue said helplessly.

"That would no longer be the lair of three thousand beauties from the harem..." Zhiming accidentally told the truth again.He did not expect that such a sacred place would be turned into such a mess by the prince.

"Not necessarily, this is just one aspect." Mu Yue has become accustomed to his speaking style and doesn't care about it, "Actually, Shenzhi Pavilion is still very authoritative to the public, and many matters related to the gods have to be handled through us. Arrangements, such as the annual regular ritual of offering sacrifices to the heavens, the blessing ceremony before the soldiers go out, etc. Usually, these rituals require some personnel to perform ostentation, singing and dancing, and those kabuki come in handy. I can see that that For a while, Cai Yan really had nothing to love in her life. She wanted to commit suicide many times but couldn’t do it. Maybe she didn’t want to make me too sad. I have been holding back from telling her the real purpose of coming here, because I can’t find anyone to save her. Opportunity; she won't have a chance to be free until Tai Shixiang appears."

"She is relieved, what about you? Are you going to endure it like this?" Zhiming, as an audience, couldn't bear it anymore.

"Of course not. Isn't today's war a proof that we can't bear it?" Mutsuki asked rhetorically.

"It seems that you are not the only one who colludes with the enemy's country." Zhiming said bluntly.

"That's right, I have been promoted from Shaoyou to the position of Shenzhisi. In the process, I have also attracted many people as internal support to help me connect with the Goguryeo people. Not everyone in this palace is convinced by the prince. There are not a few people with rebellious hearts. We have planned this war for a long time and thought it would be foolproof, but unfortunately it ended in failure. I never thought that God would make a big joke on us and let you two become saviors!" Mu Yue said Excited, he tapped his palm on the table, and his slender hands almost scratched the skin.

"Miss Muyue, please calm down, we really didn't know about it." Zhiming, who was compassionate and caring for jade, said hastily.

"Don't worry, I didn't blame you, after all, we are on the same boat. Otherwise, would I have said so much?" Mu Yue pushed back her hands, brushed away the strands of hair that covered her eyes, and smiled sweetly.

This smile can't be said to be overwhelming, but at least it can fascinate all living beings.To Zhiming's surprise, the most senior official in charge of the priesthood in this country turned out to be a beautiful woman, although her appearance was a little more mature and beautiful.

Seeing that Zhiming's attention salute to her was a little longer than the limit, Zuo Mu waved his hand a few times in front of his eyes, pulling him back from his fantasy.

"You're right, we are the same people." Zhiming said casually to hide his inner embarrassment.

"I also suddenly predicted that you would come last night, so I hurriedly asked the Taizheng Pavilion to find a few gangsters over early in the morning, using the excuse of testing your strength to see if you are the same group as the one who kidnapped Cai Yan; It was to drive you away so that the Goguryeo people could sneak attack on the capital. Unexpectedly, your strength was so powerful that it seriously affected our plan, which I could not have foreseen. Not only did I fail to avenge Master, but I also killed many innocent people People, I have committed a lot of crimes." Mu Yue's heart suddenly had countless dark tides.

"We came at the wrong time, ashamed, ashamed..." Zhiming quickly comforted.

"Why did the prince poison your master?" Zuo Mu changed the subject in a timely manner.

"After I took office in Shaoyou, Master took good care of me and treated me like a younger sister, because she also saw that I was superior in certain aspects. It can be said that I can become a god secretary and have a close relationship with her." It has a lot to do with it. The only reason why the prince poisoned her was because she really couldn't stand the prince's ravages and wanted to expose what he did!" Mu Yue said through gritted teeth.

"It seems that the prince has committed a serious crime and must be punished by heaven." Zuo Mu gritted his teeth and said.

"If you don't act, maybe he has already been sanctioned." Mu Yue has always been worried about this.

"...By the way, when Goguryeo's ghost corps appeared, the entire sky was overwhelmed by dark clouds, as if they were covering their actions. What's going on?" Zhiming suddenly thought of this.

"Actually, my special skill not only predicts the future, but also calls the wind and rain. I can summon the Heavenly Dragon God to help." Mu Yue said shocking words.

"Tianyulongshen?" Zuo Mu remembered that he had heard a minister mention it in the square outside the hall before.

"That's right, the Heavenly Dragon God will regularly appear in the human world as a human being, and at the same time possesses the wisdom of a dragon and the power of a god." Mutsuki seemed to have had contact with the Dragon God before.

"Really? Isn't it awesome?" Zhiming couldn't believe it. It turned out that the gods here would also descend to the human world.

"It's absolutely true. The great earthquake six years ago, thanks to the divine power of the Dragon God, managed to save some small island countries, including the country of Ito." Mutsuki looked at Zuo Mu and said, "You should know about this, right? ?”

"I probably know. I heard that the Dragon God of Heaven personally resolved this catastrophe. If it were not for the God of Dragon's manifestation, how many innocent lives would have been lost, and some small countries might have perished because of it. It seems that God of Heaven's Dragon The avatar is still in the world." Zuo Mu still had lingering fears when he recalled the great earthquake that year.

"There was internal strife in the God Realm, and Ksitigarbha Pluto was dissatisfied with the rejection of the gods, and deliberately launched this shocking earthquake, intending to vent his anger by destroying human beings; fortunately, he was discovered and stopped by the Dragon God of Heaven. The degree of influence, but in the end the lifeline was saved. Tianyulongshen probably has banned Jizo Pluto, otherwise there will be many major earthquakes in these years." Mu Yue's tone seemed to be very familiar with the gods.

"It seems that you are a Goddess who lives up to his reputation! I admire you!" Zhiming did not expect that this trip to a foreign country would allow him to meet such a Goddess.

"However, it is impossible for Tianyulongshen to help me overthrow Yamatai. After all, this is a human society, and it cannot exceed its authority." Mu Yue did not accept his praise, and continued, "With my current skills, I can only let It creates a vision of dark clouds and thunder in the short term, and it cannot attack the enemy fundamentally."

"Since you have such great supernatural powers, why should you submit to the prince's majesty?" Zhiming asked.

"As I said just now, I was willing to commit myself here to save Cai Yan. Shenzhi Pavilion was originally a highly respected department, but the prince made it so..." Mu Yue couldn't say it.

Zhiming comforted again: "No, you are still very dignified in front of the public. I guess no one outside the palace knows about these things, right?"

"I'm not sure about this. Anyway, the prince strictly forbids Shenzhi Pavilion to have contact with people outside the palace, because he is afraid that these palace scandals will spread to the outside world." Mu Yue has been used to living in the palace for a long time.

"Then how did you keep in touch with the Goguryeo people?" Zuo Mu was curious about this.

"There are many methods, so it's inconvenient for me to disclose them. In modern warfare, aren't espionage, scouting, and flying pigeons all commonly used methods?" Mu Yue summed up everything in one sentence.

"Understood." Zhiming suddenly thought of it, and asked, "Miss Muyue, do you know where the Queen is now?"

Asked here, Zuo Mu also pricked up his ears, waiting for the answer.

"About this question, you have to find the answer by yourself." Mutsuki's answer was disappointing.

The two were really disappointed when they heard this, after all, this was what they were most concerned about; as for collusion with the enemy country, they didn't care too much.

"I know why you are looking for the queen." Mutsuki looked at Zuo Mu and said, "Your eyes have betrayed your inner thoughts. I admire your courage."

"You...have mind reading skills?!" Zuo Mu was extremely surprised.

"A little bit, the power is not deep. I can remind you to go as high as possible. The closer you are to the heaven, the closer you are to the queen. But remember one thing: be careful. The queen is proficient in the way of ghosts and gods. Under me; and she has ghost warriors as bodyguards." Mu Yue said mysteriously.

"Ghost Warrior?" Zhiming felt that the name was a bit eerie.

"Okay, that's it. I hope that the content of the conversation just now will only stay in this shrine, and everything will be cleared when I go out." Mu Yue didn't want to say too much.

"Don't worry, we each get what we need. Since you have indirectly told us the answer, we won't do anything against you. It's just... I really want to know, what are your plans for the future?" Zhiming asked.

"The position is high and powerful, so there must be changes. I have already caught some handles of the old fox Himiazu, and I still need time to brew and ferment it. Now that Cai Yan has been rescued, I can deal with him with all my strength. Today's The war is just the beginning, I will not end it, I will definitely make him pay the price, and make him regret everything he has done before!" Two ghosts of will-o'-the-wisps appeared in Mu Yue's eyes.

Both Zhiming and Zuo Mu were intimidated by this momentum, fearing that she would fall into the devil's way; Zuo Mu even suspected that she was also a demon walker, but he didn't say it.

A few seconds later, Mu Yue returned to the original state and said: "Since I stepped into this land, I have put my personal life and death aside. I just don't worry about Cai Yan, and my brother-in-law. For them, I would rather incarnate into this land A pinch of yellow mud on the ground, or the drizzle that nourishes the earth."

Zhiming did not expect that this seemingly ordinary woman in front of him actually contained such a huge energy.Her frowns and smiles are full of charm, and her words are powerful. There is not only the softness and gentleness that women should have, but also the fearless determination to die for the country.He couldn't help admiring the woman's courage and strength.

"I wish you success in your actions." Mu Yue lightly raised her teacup and offered tea instead of wine to the two of them.

The two toasted and said together: "I wish Ms. Muyue realize her dream as soon as possible."

After drinking tea, Muyue suddenly remembered something, got up in a hurry and said, "I have to go to save people. Those Goguryeo people are all trapped in the dungeon, I can't let the prince execute them."

"Then let's take our leave too. We will meet later." The two stood up and said goodbye.

Just as Muyue was about to go out, she suddenly paused for a few seconds, then turned around and said, "Tianyulongshen told me just now that he wants to see you!"
