Chapter 25: Suspicion

"Linglong, there have been floods in the surrounding areas of Tongzhou?"

Carefully flipping through the map on the book, Ye Li's fingers curled slightly, and slowly drew a circle on the word Bingzhou, "I have an intuition that this locust plague should have nothing to do with it." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

"Why?"

"Of course it is," suddenly stopped the conversation, Ye Li's calves trembled, and he almost fell off the round bench.

Standing up straight with a shudder, Ye Li opened her red lips slightly, her glass eyes were full of incredulity, and standing in front of her was the prince and husband who she was determined to never appear.

"Why didn't you say it?"

Sitting down leisurely beside Ye Li, Chu Muhan reached out and took the book on the long case, and after flipping through a few pages, he put it back again, "I'm still waiting for your answer." ā€

Hehe laughed a few times, Ye Li pretended to be calm and cleared her throat, but her steps did not stop, but before she could move a few steps, she felt a tightness in her waist, and when she reacted, she was already trapped in Chu Muhan's arms.

"You, you, you!" Stretching out her hand to Chu Muhan, Ye Li straightened her back and tried her best to distance herself from him, but her reddish cheeks still revealed her thoughts.

Unexpectedly, after living for twenty-four years and still having a blank emotional experience, she was hugged by a man the day after the crossing!

Although this person is her rightful husband, they really don't know each other!

Subconsciously refusing Chu Muhan's approach, Ye Li twisted his waist more and more hard, bent on escaping from his confinement, but he never thought about it, but in exchange for the two of them getting closer to each other.

Chu Muhan was a little irritable.

He always thought that he could face Ye Li's estrangement calmly, and even planned to let her out of the identity of Princess Jing, but when he really met those eyes that were as timid as a deer, inexplicably, he wanted to hold her in his arms.

Then, he did it, but he knew that the person who would be so impulsive should not be him.

Silently looking at the hand around her waist, Chu Muhan hesitated and shrunk, but the still calm heart lake suddenly rippled layer by layer.

He was not a person who indulged in lust, and he was used to being alone on weekdays, but Rao was like this, he still found that Ye Li had lost most of his body.

It turned out that all her resistance was real!

He thought that he was as proud as Ye Li, and he would not give up his self-esteem so resolutely, and it was precisely because of this belief that he did not pay attention to Ye Li's subsequent actions, but he never thought that she could really be crazy so much.

And in this way, his previous self-confidence is really ridiculous.

He doesn't understand the **** of the world, but he doesn't understand it, but he still thinks about a woman's heart and tramples on her feelings, so what is the difference between him and Mu Binjing, who is willing to manipulate people's hearts?

Secretly clenched his fists, Chu Muhan tugged at the corners of his lips, and was about to say something, but suddenly heard a long sigh from the woman in his arms.

"Okay, I say!" Looking up at Chu Muhan's eyes, Ye Li pointed to the hand on his waist, finally breaking the strange silence between the two, "However, can you let me go first?" ā€

Yi Yan let go of his hand, Chu Muhan quietly looked at the slender back left by Ye Li, and the eyes that could not be reflected in the prosperity of the world in both directions actually showed a little uneasiness rarely.

Because he had an intuition that the former Ye Li would never come back, and he missed it forever.

In front of the case, Ye Li was holding a pen in her right hand, drawing stick figures on rice paper that even she couldn't bear to look at, and her mental concentration was enough for her to ignore the burning gaze that was staring at her back.

If she knew that she would one day travel to such a parallel ancient dynasty, she would definitely learn Chinese painting from her grandfather, instead of being unable to draw anything to see except for drawing circles and horizontal and vertical bars.

Silently spitting on himself in his heart, Ye Li turned slightly sideways and gave Chu Muhan some place to come out.

"Let's talk about it first, you can't laugh at me!" After carefully looking at Chu Muhan, and seeing that he still had a face with a deep expression, Ye Li's heart was relieved, and he no longer cared about his clumsy painting skills.

Finger tapped to the river sign on the screen, Ye Li did not stop long, but followed the direction of the river directly over Tongzhou, and then stopped on Bingzhou.

"At the end of March, there was a flood in the state, but it has been resolved." Supplementing the information in time, Chu Muhan stretched out his hand and drew a circle on the word Bingzhou, "So, what exactly is the relationship you want to talk about?" ā€

Sure enough, talking to smart people is a pleasure!

Complimenting Lord Fujun in his heart, Ye Li slid his finger back to Tongzhou, "That flood also had an impact on Tongzhou, but because it was not a hard-hit area, the imperial court didn't pay much attention to it, and because of this, this locust plague appeared." ā€

"In other words, this locust plague was actually caused by a flood?"

"Indeed,"

Picking up the "Lingyun Survey Gazetteer" that she had just consulted, Ye Li flipped it to the Tongzhou chapter and handed it to Chu Muhan, with various marks she made with a brush, "In order to control the locust plague, the prince must have studied the geographical environment of Tongzhou a long time ago, but the locust plague is a stubborn disease, and it can not be eliminated in a day. ā€

"So how can we cure the root cause?" Staring at Ye Li's eyes seriously, Chu Muhan held her thin shoulders with one hand and slowly grasped it, "Within three days, can you come up with a way?" ā€

Gritting her teeth, she squeezed out the word "can" from her mouth, and felt the strength on her shoulders gradually unloaded, Ye Li hurriedly took a step back, and her pale lips were bitten out of a bewitching red.

What about the gentle gentleman who said he was good? This hand is so strong that she almost crushed her bones, where is the attitude of begging!

made a sad face in her heart, although Ye Li was aggrieved, she still maintained a gentle and decent smile on her face, but those eyes that seemed to be soaked in spring water still leaked her heart.

"I'm sorry, I'm a little excited."

Apologetic in a deep voice, Chu Muhan immediately grabbed Ye Li's wrist and pulled her in front of him again, and his slender fingers gently put on Ye Li's neck. Then, under Ye Li's dull gaze, he moved his fingertips slightly and cut open Ye Li's placket.

Standing stunned in place, Ye Li, who was shocked by the scene in front of him, had already forgotten about his struggle, and let him lower his head close to his neck and look carefully.

I have to say, Chu Muhan is really beautiful!

is not more enchanting feminine than a woman, but the kind of moonlit and clear handsome, just like a tree of cold plums under the moon, obviously surrounded by the coldness that rejects people thousands of miles away, but it can easily attract everyone's attention.

Therefore, it is not without reason that Mu Yunhua has admired him for many years.

He is too good, too perfect, a humble gentleman who is as gentle as jade, and has always been the ideal husband in every woman's mind.

It's a pity that he is a cold person, from the first time she saw him, she knew it. And this kind of man often has great self-control, and is a fierce beast hidden in the dark, and she has always stayed away from it.

But how does this situation make her run away now?

She is Chu Muhan's woman, not to mention that he stripped his clothes, even if he pressed her on the bed, she couldn't resist.

What's more, hate is not a good excuse, and how much hatred a woman has in her heart is enough to show how much she loves.

Let's go with the flow, didn't Zhuangzi and his old man also say that they should conform to all things in heaven and earth?

Forcing herself to calm down like this, Ye Li's eyes narrowed slightly, and she turned to stare at the patterns on the embroidered shoes seriously, so as to drive away the chaotic thoughts in her heart, but her honest body betrayed her again.

"It hurts, or are you afraid of me?"

Letting go of the hand that was caressing her shoulder, Chu Muhan's left hand was still holding Ye Li's wrist, but with the other hand, he took out a round porcelain box like a trick.

Hearing this, Ye Li's heart was stunned for a while, and she opened her mouth to defend something, but she swallowed it back again.

Of course she was afraid of him, but she couldn't say such straightforward words, and as for deception, she couldn't do it.

Because Ye Li knows very well that the terrible thing about lies is that in order to fulfill the original lie, she needs countless lies to fill in the future, and she is not so hardworking, and she doesn't want to live in a world woven of lies for the rest of her life, so she simply chooses to be silent.

And silence was Chu Muhan's expected answer.

Ye Li is a smart woman, he never denies this, although she has always been gentle and virtuous, but the former brilliant elegance is difficult to extinguish.

It's just that the current Ye Li is a little different.

Recalling the painting he had just seen, Chu Muhan looked at Ye Li thoughtfully, the hand that was originally holding her slowly let go, and then when Ye Li raised his eyes to look at him, he suddenly clamped Ye Li's chin.

"Let's say," carefully looking at Ye Li's face, Chu Muhan's magnified handsome face was reflected in Ye Li's eyes little by little, and a warm breath was sprayed on the back of her neck, "Who are you?" ā€
