Chapter 171: Feelings Need Catalysts

"I'm tired, let him wait."

After listening to Xiangxiang's report, Su Ruoxi just replied coldly.

Why can Mu Zihan go out to hook up, she went out for a while, as if she wanted to ask the teacher for a crime?

Seeing Su Ruoxi walking straight in the direction of returning to the room, Xiangxiang looked embarrassed.

"This ......"

Su Ruoxi ignored Xiangxiang and went back to her room directly.

In order to prevent Mu Zihan from coming in, she deliberately locked all the doors and windows, and sprinkled medicinal powder on the doors and windows.

Anyone who trespasses in without permission will faint immediately if they get the powder she sprinkled on the doors and windows.

After doing this, Su Ruoxi was ready to sleep peacefully.

Regardless of whether Mu Zihan explained Ya'er's matter or not, she was ready to have a cold war with him for two days first, and let him reflect on himself first.

Maybe it was because he didn't sleep well, but just after dawn the next day, Su Ruoxi woke up.

I saw that everything in the room remained as it was, and there was no trace of anyone coming in.

She should have been happy, but she was inexplicably a little lost in her heart.

"Damn Mu Zihan!"

Su Ruoxi cursed in a low voice, then got up and opened the door to breathe in some fresh air.

It rained lightly last night, and the morning air was exceptionally fresh.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Tianyu lying in front of the door, looking like she had fallen asleep.

Seeing that Tianyu was actually sleeping outside his room, Su Ruoxi immediately realized something, turned around and ran to get a glass of cold water, then put a little medicinal powder in the water, and gave it to Tianyu to drink.

After drinking the antidote, Tianyu woke up in a daze.

"Tianyu, what's the matter?"

Su Ruoxi helped Tianyu up from the ground and asked.

She sprinkled the medicine powder on the doors and windows last night, and Tian Yu must have come to her for something, so she was stunned by the medicine powder.

Tianyu shook his head, but didn't say anything.

At this time, Wan'er came over with something, and saw Su Ruoxi and greeted, "Miss, why did you get up so early today?" ”

It was just dawn that day, and she rarely saw her young lady get up at this time.

"Did the prince come last night?"

Su Ruoxi returned to the house, and Wan'er and Tianyu also followed.

"Nope!"

This time, Tianyu answered quickly, he had been guarding outside, and he knew the situation better than Wan'er.

"Why not? The prince clearly came last night, but he didn't come into the courtyard! Wan'er retorted.

Su Ruoxi frowned and asked again: "Is there any?" ”

"Nope!"

"Yes!"

Tianyu and Wan'er said in unison, but Su Ruoxi chose to believe Tianyu, because Tianyu would not lie.

"Wan'er, since you said that the prince has come, then tell me, what did you see the prince do?"

She decided to fight with Mu Zihan for two days, no matter what, she would not meet Mu Zihan for these two days.

Even if you accidentally bump into him, you won't talk to him.

Therefore, if she wanted to know about Mu Zihan's situation, she could only ask Wan'er and Xiangxiang.

"I ...... I ......"

Wan'er replied a little hesitantly, and after a long time, she finally decided to tell the truth.

"Last night, I saw the prince standing outside the courtyard for a long time, and his whole body was wet before leaving."

Wan'er knew in her heart that it must be her young lady who had a conflict with the prince again, so she was afraid that she would help the prince speak and be disliked by her young lady.

After Su Ruoxi understood the situation, she asked Wan'er to retreat.

On the other side, in a chic manor.

Mu Zihan sat in the rocking chair and closed his eyes, the courtyard in the open air was very quiet, so silent that only his even breathing could be heard.

Across from him sat a woman in blue, who looked to be only fifteen years old.

The woman made tea in style and made a small cup for Mu Zihan.

"Zihan, try it, see if my tea-making skills have improved?"

Ya'er handed the teacup in her hand to Mu Zihan, with a satisfied smile on her face.

Everything she learned about the Central Plains was all for him.

Mu Zihan opened his eyes calmly, took the teacup in Ya'er's hand, and took a sip gently.

After a long time, Mu Zihan spoke: "Ya'er, tomorrow I will send someone to escort you back to Mu Liao." You've been gone for so long, and your father will worry about you. ”

Hearing Mu Zihan say these words, Ya'er shook her head reluctantly.

"I left a letter to my father, telling him that I came to you, so my father won't be worried."

Mu Zihan was silent for a while, closed his eyes again, and gently rocked the rocking chair.

"You want to drive me away because the princess doesn't like me, right?"

Seeing that Mu Zihan didn't speak, Ya'er said guessingly.

"Ya'er, don't say that, no one doesn't like you."

Mu Zihan explained indifferently that Ya'er is the princess of Mu Liao, and Mu Liao is the largest country except for Northern Qi and Cangyue, with strong soldiers and horses, and is a backing force that cannot be ignored.

When his uncle took him to Mu Liao for the first time, he said a word.

In order to maintain the status of the Central Plains, the Northern Qi State needs the friendly state of Mu Liao.

Moreover, the king of Muliao's kingdom treats him well, and the Yaer people are not bad, and he cannot really turn against them.

"You don't have to help her say good things, I'm not a child anymore, I still know how to read words."

Ya'er smiled and continued, "I can see that you care about her a lot. ”

"We have a saying in Muliao that when the center of gravity shifts strictly, the original balance will be lost."

"It's like when we raise sheep, and the sheep are the hope of our lives. But we also need wolves on our grasslands, and although we will lose some sheep, the ones that survive will be stronger. ”

Mu Zihan looked at Ya'er, he knew what Ya'er wanted to express.

He is too partial to Ruoxi, or the tighter he grasps her, the faster he may lose her.

Seeing that Mu Zihan was just silent, he thought he didn't understand what he meant.

Ya'er sighed and said, "I didn't learn the original dialect well, maybe you didn't understand what I was trying to say." ”

"Look at this cup of tea on the table, put it on the table like this and it will be fine, but what if that?"

As she spoke, she moved the teacup toward the edge of the stone table, so that the bottom half of the teacup hung outside the stone table.

"The relationship between you and the princess is like this teacup now, and it will be shattered with a slight touch from an external force."

After speaking, Ya'er tapped the teacup with her finger, and the teacup immediately fell off the stone table.

Mu Zihan nervously caught the teacup with one hand, "This king won't let it fall!" ”

"Then you need a strength to pull it back!"

Ya'er said excitedly, it was just a teacup, and seeing that Mu Zihan was also so nervous, she knew that she was completely hopeless.

But even so, she didn't want to see Mu Zihan living in dire straits and being tortured by that woman.

So she decided to help him and be a catalyst between him and Su Ruoxi.
