Chapter 290: Cooperation

"It seems that the county lord is not happy to sit next to me." The man I saw on the road today looked at Zhou Xinzhi and chuckled.

Zhou Xinzhi blinked, she turned her head sideways and glanced at the man, but she didn't expect the man to look at her coldly, and when she turned her head, the man raised the wine glass in his hand and shook it at her.

The entire hall was quiet, and everyone's eyes gathered on Zhou Xinzhi's body for a while.

Zhou Xinzhi pursed her lips, she raised her head, looked at the threat and displeasure in the emperor's eyes, and still gave in: "Childe said he laughed." ”

"Then the county lord should take a seat quickly, don't be impatient with everyone waiting." The man raised his eyebrows at Zhou Xinzhi, looking like a hanger.

Zhou Xinzhi clenched her back molars, her fingers continued to tighten and release, and finally sat down in the position of the emperor's finger.

"County Lord." The man nodded at Zhou Xinzhi, he obviously had a great interest in Zhou Xinzhi, so he didn't care about the searching eyes of the people around him at this moment.

Zhou Xinzhi was still a girl after all, her cheeks were flushed, and she nodded helplessly: "What's the matter with the son?" ”

"Just call me Mu Yan." The man touched the glass in front of Zhou Xinzhi with his wine glass, and then drank all the wine in the cup.

Zhou Xinzhi pursed her lips and didn't speak, she lowered her head and looked at the wine glass in front of her, and only took a small sip when she was sure that it was okay.

"The county lord is really as sensitive and suspicious as rumored." Mu Yan hooked the corners of his lips.

"Childe, you also know my current situation, my husband is still in a coma, if something happens to me, then this family will not be able to hold on." Zhou Xinzhi deliberately aggravated the word husband.

Mu Yan naturally understood what Zhou Xinzhi meant, but no one knew about Zhou Xinzhi and Qin Qianyu, but he wanted Zhou Xinzhi to have other roles.

Zhou Xinzhi saw Mu Yan sitting there quietly without speaking, so she also withdrew her body and quietly lowered her head and drank water.

"Why is the county lord not interested?" Concubine Zhen poked her head out from the side, she held the wine glass, and looked at Zhou Xinzhi's eyes with a somewhat complicated gaze.

Concubine Zhen is an old man in the palace, and she couldn't have children because she was framed a few years ago, and Emperor Xuanjing felt sorry for her at first, but then somehow, she slowly began to ignore her.

"Concubine Zhen is too careful." Zhou Xinzhi was not in the mood to chat, she responded hastily.

Concubine Zhen knew that she was not likable, she laughed twice, raised her glass at Zhou Xinzhi, and then quietly resumed her appearance of not speaking.

Zhou Xinzhi was sitting on pins and needles, her fingers kept picking at her hands, and her eyes were rolling several times.

"County Lord, you can't leave this kind of occasion now, why don't you go out and talk with me?" Mu Yan turned his head sideways and looked at Zhou Xinzhi for a long time before he spoke.

Zhou Xinzhi didn't expect Mu Yan to talk to her, and she didn't react for a while: "Huh? Oh......"

"Let's go, then." Mu Yan shook his clothes, stood up, and stretched out his hand at Zhou Xinzhi.

Zhou Xinzhi didn't appreciate it, she pursed her lips, turned sideways, stood up and walked out behind Mu Yan.

"Tell me, what's wrong?" Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people, Zhou Xinzhi didn't dare to follow Mu Yan anymore, she stood still, her fingers clenching the pillar next to her.

Mu Yan felt funny about Zhou Xinzhi's composure, he reached out and rubbed his chin, and while Zhou Xinzhi was not paying attention, he suddenly approached Zhou Xinzhi.

At this moment, the moonlight fell on Zhou Xinzhi, and Mu Yan saw the emotions in Zhou Xinzhi's eyes clearly.

"Scared?" Mu Yan chuckled, he reached out and wanted to grab Zhou Xinzhi's arm, but he never thought that Zhou Xinzhi took two steps back as if he had been electrocuted, and then looked at Mu Yan with vigilance.

Mu Yan shrugged his shoulders indifferently, probably because he was afraid that Zhou Xinzhi would really get angry, and at the moment when Zhou Xinzhi was about to turn his head and leave, Mu Yan opened his mouth: "Cooperate with me." ”

"Cooperation?" Zhou Xinzhi didn't understand for a while, she blinked, and the steps under her feet that wanted to escape paused.

Mu Yan nodded, his tall body completely blocked the light in front of Zhou Xinzhi, Zhou Xinzhi's heart was overwhelmed, and the vigilance around him became more and more obvious.

"I know you're investigating the temple, and with me, I can give you a lot of clues." Mu Yan looked at Zhou Xinzhi, he had 'confidence, Zhou Xinzhi would definitely cooperate with him.'

Sure enough, Zhou Xinzhi hesitated, she clutched her sleeves, looking very entangled.

Mu Yan was not in a hurry, he leaned sideways against the wooden pillar on the side, and the cat's eyes became brighter and brighter in the dark night.

Zhou Xinzhi swallowed her saliva, she looked up at Mu Yan for a long time, and then she opened her mouth: "Why do I believe you?" ”

"Are you looking for this?" Mu Yan was prepared, he reached out and groped around his body, and then took out a red bead string and put it in Zhou Xinzhi's hand. Book 6 bar

Zhou Xinzhi sighed in her heart for a moment, she squinted her eyes, touched the inside of the bead string with her fingers, and determined that this bead string was the one that Qingyi gave her at the beginning: "The person who assassinated us that day ......"

"I can't tell you these things yet, but you should believe that I have what it takes to cooperate with you, right?" Mu Yan lowered his head, his gaze and Zhou Xinzhi's gaze met in the air.

Zhou Xinzhi nodded, and was even more skeptical of Mu Yan's appearance in her heart: "Hmm." ”

"Then I'll take you as if you agree to work with me." Mu Yan pursed his lips, he stretched out his hand and patted Zhou Xinzhi's forehead, turned around and walked in the direction of the main hall.

Zhou Xinzhi pursed her lips and followed Mu Yan back to the main hall quickly.

At this moment, the people in the hall have almost left, leaving a few concubines and the emperor to say this, and a few people were stunned for a moment when they saw Zhou Xinzhi and Mu Yan coming in.

Zhou Xinzhi also felt a little embarrassed, she thought that the two of them had not been out for a long time, who knew that it would be such a scene when they came back.

"Mu Yan, the palace is busy repairing these days, and there is no way to live in the side hall, so I'm afraid you have to go to the county lord for a few days." The Emperor looked at the two men and opened their mouths.

Zhou Xinzhi was stunned for a moment when she heard this, she looked at the emperor in disbelief, the emperor was planning to let Qin Qianyu face the bleak life?

Mu Yan glanced sideways at Zhou Xinzhi, then he ignored Zhou Xinzhi's gritted teeth, turned his head to look at the emperor and smiled: "Okay." ”

"Okay, it's not too early now, you two should also go back, by the way, Xiao Guizi, these medicinal materials are for the second prince, just let the county lord bring them back." The emperor glanced at Zhou Xinzhi and said.

Zhou Xinzhi gritted her teeth and bowed her head in response, and then she took the medicinal herbs from the maids and did not speak.

Mu Yan also opened his mouth to thank him, and the time was indeed not early, and the two of them went back to the house without saying anything more.

At this moment, the house was quiet, and the people had already gone back to the room to rest, and Zhou Xinzhi rubbed her hair a little tiredly.

Fortunately, Qiao Cui hadn't fallen asleep yet, so Zhou Xinzhi instructed Qiao Cui to clean up the guest room next to her, and as for herself, she naturally returned to Qin Qianyu's room.

Wei Qing was still sitting in the room reading a book, and when he saw Zhou Xinzhi entering the door, he raised his eyebrows, and pointed to the figure that flashed by the window with some confusion.

Zhou Xinzhi sighed, and said a few important words about tonight's events, the unknown origin of these two people who came in the house recently is really a headache.

"County lord, the second prince will probably wake up tomorrow, don't worry, have a good rest." Wei Qing also guessed what the emperor meant, he sighed and opened his mouth to say with relief.

Zhou Xinzhi nodded, she was a little tired and leaned on the soft collapse on the side and blinked: "You go and rest first, I'll just watch here." ”

Wei Qing nodded and went out.

The room was suddenly silent, the wind came in through the window, and the light of the candles flickered twice before it settled down.

Zhou Xinzhi fell asleep in a daze, she didn't know that Mu Han was looking at her outside the window.

The next morning, the light shone in through the window, and Zhou Xinzhi opened her eyes leisurely.

Qin Qianyu on the bed didn't know when he had opened his eyes, he looked at Zhou Xinzhi, his eyes were full of pampering and gentleness.

"County Lord, has the second prince woken up?" Mo Han's voice came from the door.

Zhou Xinzhi raised her eyebrows, she turned her head sideways and coughed, and after making sure that her voice was back to normal, she raised her eyebrows and opened the door of the room: "What are you doing here?" ”

"Send medicine, Dr. Wei was called back to the palace early in the morning today, so I came over to deliver medicine." Mo Han raised his eyebrows, his eyes were cold and expressionless.

"Put it there." Zhou Xinyi raised her hand and pointed to the position next to her.

Mu Han nodded, he carefully placed the bowl on the table next to Zhou Xinzhi, and then turned around and walked out.

"This person was sent by the emperor?" Qin Qianyu looked at Mu Han's movements and didn't speak, he leaned quietly on the head of the bed, and there was no temperature in his eyes.

Zhou Xinzhi nodded, she picked up the bowl and tested the temperature of the medicine, and after confirming that the temperature was normal, she pursed her lips and put the medicine on Qin Qianyu's mouth.

"Has anything happened at the temple lately, is everything still normal?" Qin Qianyu lay on the bed and took a sip of medicine from Zhou Xinzhi's hand, probably a little bitter, and he frowned a little unhappily.

"Don't worry, I'll let Qingyi keep an eye on it, there's nothing going on lately, but there is a person named Mu Yan in the palace, and the emperor seems to have the heart to push me to him." Zhou Xinzhi hesitated for a moment and still said the matter roughly, after all, now that Mu Yan lives in the mansion, everything will eventually be discovered even if it is concealed for a while.

"Mu Yan? Who? Qin Qianyu's face sank sharply after hearing Zhou Xinzhi's last words, he didn't care about wiping the medicinal juice from the corner of his mouth, his eyes stared straight at Zhou Xinzhi's eyes and asked.
