Not long after Chu Ziyu returned to the East Palace, someone came to report, and the Marquis of Boyuan asked to see him.

He was a little surprised. Ever since this cousin took over the title of Houhou, he has been depressed and seldom walked around the palace. What kind of wind blows him here today.

Although he is a cousin, Chu Ziyu was not less taken care of by Mu Chongjin when he was a child. Although he was a little rusty when he grew up, but the past affection is still there, so he immediately asked the palace servant to welcome people in, watch the seats and prepare tea, and also himself. Follow out.

"Meet His Royal Highness." Mu Chongjin was about to put down his crutches and kneel down to salute.

Chu Ziyu hurriedly strode forward to support him, and said with a smile, "What is Uncle Biao doing? Why are you giving a big gift when you come to see your nephew?"

Mu Chongjin knew that he said that because he saw that he was inconvenient to move. I was grateful, but still bowed down.

Chu Ziyu received the ceremony and felt regretful in her heart.

If Mu Zhongjin was disabled, it would be the loss of the Yan Dynasty! Otherwise, with his martial arts and commanding talents, he will definitely be able to achieve another achievement, instead of being an idle prince like he is now.

"Uncle, please take a seat."

Chu Ziyu admired him, and naturally he would not put on the air of a prince, but he also wondered why Mu Zhongjin came to find him today.

His doubts were written on his face, but he didn't hide it.

Mu Chongjin is not a person who likes to go around in circles. After drinking only half of the tea in front of him, he could no longer bear it, and said, "The matter in the Weichen Mansion has troubled His Highness a few days ago. A capable person and a different person came to help, and Zhuojing escaped the catastrophe."

Chu Ziyu nodded, he naturally knew about this, but at this moment Mu Chongjin said this for more than just thank you.

Mu Zhongjin pondered for a while and said, "Wei Chen dares to say something offensive, please first ask the prince to forgive him."

"Uncle, but it's okay to say it."

Mu Zhongjin took a deep breath and said: "Wei Chen knows that His Royal Highness and the Regent have a close relationship, and they should be brothers and sisters. Now His Majesty has ordered the marriage of the eldest princess to the Regent. Only the prince and the eldest princess are related to the lifelong happiness of the eldest princess, and Wei Chen hopes that the prince will pay more attention to it."

Ok? Chu Ziyu's eyes moved slightly, and he heard something mysterious.

"Uncle Biao said this, but what is your dissatisfaction with the Regent?"

"Don't dare." Mu Zhongjin said so, but his face was not covered at all.

"What's the matter, uncle, let's talk straight."

Chu Ziyu was really aroused by curiosity, and if someone else spoke ill of Xiao Jue in front of him, he was afraid that he would have been beaten out by a big stick.

But Chu Ziyu knows Mu Chongjin's character. What this cousin hates most on weekdays is the villain who makes irresponsible remarks behind him. If he can make him come to the door and talk about right and wrong, then something must have happened, and it is also involved. Chu Qingyi's marriage!

"The Prince Regent already has a confidante, so he shouldn't delay the eldest princess." Mu Zhongjin said straightly: "His confidante is not a good friend, and the eldest princess will only suffer if she wants to marry into the palace. "

Mu Zhongjin frowned and shook his head heavily.

He really didn't like to talk about people's strengths behind his back, but it was related to Chu Qingyi's lifelong happiness, and she was the only daughter of the first empress. Even if she became this villain, he had to talk about it today.

After he finished speaking, he saw that His Highness the Prince did not answer, but lowered his head as if thinking about something.

soulmate? Chu Ziyu was very puzzled, if Xiao Jue had a confidante, how could he not know? On the contrary, did Mu Zhongjin know? Shouldn't it be...

"Could you be talking about the master in his house?"

"Exactly!" Mu Zhongjin nodded.

Cough, Chu Ziyu almost choked with a sip of tea, looking embarrassed, it's really her...

"She... looks very close to the Prince Regent?" Chu Ziyu asked with his head sullen, his eyes gurgling.

Mu Chongjin looked serious, "The two have a close relationship, and the Regent even cares about her."

Tsk tsk tsk, Chu Ziyu's heart is so playful.

The two were still pretending to be disgusted with each other in front of him, but when they got outside, they immediately fell in love with each other? Tsk tsk tsk, are you revealing the stuffing?

"What else? What shameful things have they done?" Chu Ziyu asked eagerly.

Uh... Mu Zhongjin's expression is a little weird, is it an illusion?

Why does His Royal Highness look like those aunts and elder sisters on the street who are inquiring about gossip?

After coming out of the East Palace, Mu Chongjin's expression was still gloomy. He felt that his trip today might be in vain. After listening to his words, His Royal Highness didn't mean to take it seriously at all, and his smile almost reached the back of his ears.

Mu Chongjin sighed, feeling ashamed, he was dereliction of duty as a cousin.

He knew that the two brothers and sisters had a bad relationship, but when he came in, he heard that the relationship between the two had improved a lot, but it seemed that the rumors were clearly not true!

Where is this getting better, I'm afraid it's getting more and more evil!

When I heard that my sister was about to fall into the fire pit, I laughed happier than the enemy!

Back at the Hou Mansion, as soon as Mu Chongjin entered the front hall, he heard the chattering laughter, clearly not his wife's.

"Who is laughing in the front hall?" Mu Chongjin couldn't help asking.

"Master Hou, the wife of the Minister of Rites is here, along with the servant of the Ministry of Housing and the wife of the Taixue scholar. They said they came to visit and have been chatting with the mistress for a long time!"

Those three scumbags!

Mu Chongjin's eyes widened, thinking of the fact that his wife was bullied by them, and he passed away with a sullen face.

Although he was a crippled man, the other party had gone too far, causing such a disaster to implicate Yurou, and now he dared to come to the door to be presumptuous.

Mu Chongjin was standing behind the curtain and was about to go in when another burst of laughter came from within, he stopped his feet, this laughter was clearly Yurou's.

How long has it been since I heard her smile so happily?

Mu Chongjin was stunned, and motioned for people not to go over and report to them, but walked to the corridor and looked at them from a distance.

In the front hall, the women chatted for a long time, during which Qin Yurou laughed several times.

When it was time for lunch, Qin Yurou still kept Li Shi and the others to eat, but they were all declined.

Mu Chongjin saw the real faces of these women, and they were nothing special, just like the wives of other courtiers in this capital, but he always felt that something was wrong.

Mu Chongjin frowned and looked at it, and finally found something strange. Why didn't the Li family make a sound when they walked? That gesture, like a cat? !

cat? !

Mu Chongjin was startled, just at this moment, Li Shi suddenly turned his head, his eyes were directed in his direction, and he nodded and grinned.

The corners of his squinted eyes when he laughed, and the expression between his brows, clearly resembled a cat.

Mu Chongjin's face changed slightly, and his scalp was numb.

He strode towards the front hall. Qin Yurou was about to get up and go back to the room. When he saw him coming back, he was very surprised, "Master Hou, when did you come back?"

"Are you all right?" Mu Chongjin looked her up and down, "Did those women do anything to you?"

Qin Yurou was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Mrs. Shangshu and the others are here to apologize, Lord Marquis, they have sincerely repented. The concubine had a good chat with them just now, um...they don't seem to be that bad..."

Mu Chongjin couldn't tell the origin of the strangeness in his heart, "Don't you think that the Li family is a little strange?"

"Strange? It's a little weird, like a different person. However, maybe it's a wake-up call after experiencing life and death. All in all, it's a good thing."

good thing?

Mu Chongjin didn't dare to say what he was thinking, for fear of scaring Qin Yurou.

He even suspected that the cats lying in Li's body were not driven away at all, but occupied the magpie's nest.

"Yurou, don't you really feel uncomfortable?"

"No." Qin Yurou shook her head blankly.

Mu Chongjin was still worried, but he didn't show it on his face, "It's fine, maybe I'm over-hearted."

Qin Yurou glanced at him sullenly, and said, she went on to change her clothes, and then she left gracefully. Mu Zhongjin stared at her feet, confirming that she made a sound while walking, and her posture and behavior were the same as usual, so she relaxed. breathed.

Fortunately, Yurou is fine...

However, the Li family...

Mu Chongjin lowered his head and pondered. Could it be that when the goddess rod kicked him away, he was actually letting him go one by one? !
