Du Weizhen glanced at Li Yu deeply, and a warm smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, "Miss Li really has a sharp mouth." ”

Li Yu's face was very unnatural, knowing that the crown prince was sarcastic about himself, he still replied stiffly, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your compliment." ”

"Sixi, send Miss Li out."

Sixi walked out of the corner with his head down, made a gesture to Li Yu, and said, "Miss Li, please." ”

Li Yu blessed Du Weizhen, so he lowered his head and quietly followed Sixi.

Du Weizhen drank wine by the lake for a while before leaving with Sixi, bypassing the Huangcheng Street, turning into an alley, and arriving at the door of Mu's mansion, the little servant opened the door and saluted him and let him go in by himself, he didn't go to the lobby to wait, and went directly to the study, as he expected, Mu Shengbai was processing the account books in the study.

Mu Shengbai heard the sound of the door opening, and when he looked up, he was surprised when he saw the comer, "Wei Zhen, why did you come so early?" ”

Du Weizhen found a place and sat down, "Shengbai, I went to see Li Yu this morning, do you know why?" ”

Mu Shengbai put down his pen, "But for my reputation?" Actually, it's not a big deal, I don't mind this very much, my mouth grows on other people's faces, what other people say is someone else's business, I don't have much interest in interfering, and I don't mind what comes out of other people's mouths. ”

Du Weizhen was upright, "But this affects not only your reputation, but also your future, a notorious person will be in danger on the journey, not only other officials will block your promotion, but the unreasonable people will also express dissatisfaction with your promotion, no matter how much the emperor needs to respect the will of the people and the intentions of the officials." ”

Mu Shengbai didn't expect the matter to be so serious, he was surprised for a moment, and he was also a little annoyed, he was not afraid to play scheming and strategy, but these involved feelings, especially feelings made out of nothing, he really had a headache.

Like him, Du Weizhen, who has no emotional experience, at this age, other princes have accepted a lot of concubines, and there are many people who secretly go to the land of Qinglou, that is, the second prince has accepted it, and as far as he knows, he has also been to Qinglou many times, but Du Weizhen has not even touched the girl's hand because of this lack of thought, and his feelings are like a blank piece of paper.

Du Weizhen thought of a reliable candidate, although she had no previous emotional experience, but women have to be delicate and men, and they always understand better than the two of them.

Du Weizhen asked Mu Shengbai to think about it alone, he had something to go back to the palace first, Mu Shengbai was very worried, and he didn't keep it, so he asked Huang to send him out.

As soon as she saw Du Weizhen coming, Du Yueyan, who was still absent-minded just now, immediately jumped off the beauty couch and hurriedly ran over, "Brother Prince, can you discuss it with Li Yu?" Did she promise to help Shengbai regain her innocence? ”

Du Weizhen sighed deeply and said gloomily: "It's not that you don't know that your little sister has always been thoughtful, and she is not something to be messed with, this time, alas, the prince's brother has nothing to do, it seems that Mu Shengbai is going to suffer a dumb loss." You see that Shengbai himself doesn't pay attention to it, and I can't do anything about it. ”

He sighed, his eyes flickered on Du Yueyan again, and he looked nervous. Knowing that he must have an idea in his heart again, he raised his legs and walked out, "There are a few fewer guards on my side, and I don't need you here, so I'll bring the few outside back." ”

Du Yueyan's eyes lit up, and she didn't care if she could see it or not, she only nodded frantically.

It was getting late, and after obediently finishing dinner, she proposed to go for a walk alone, Nuan Chun was a little worried, and wanted to follow, Du Yueyan immediately scolded: "This princess is going to the imperial garden for a walk, why are you following?" ”

Nuan Chun's face was full of helplessness, "Your Highness, you still changed into men's clothes and told me to go to the imperial garden, how can I rest assured, if something happens to you when you leave the palace so late, we won't be able to eat and walk around, so you can take the slave and maid with you." If you don't worry about the slave maid, you can also take March with you, but you can't go out of the palace alone at night. ”

Du Yueyan's face flashed with the embarrassment of being exposed, and she faked coughing a few times, "You don't have to worry, this princess will let Eleven go out with me." ”

Nuan Chun breathed a sigh of relief, Eleven was given to the princess by the emperor, and her strength must not be underestimated, "The slave is naturally relieved." ”

"Childe, Young Master Du is in the lobby."

This night, Mu Shengbai was thinking about what Du Weizhen said, and he couldn't figure it out for a long time, when Huang Lai came in and said this in his ear, for some reason, he naturally breathed a sigh of relief.

The boy grinned, revealing his snow-white teeth, "Wei Yi." ”

Du Yueyan's face was full of worry, "Shengbai, why do you still look so heartless, if it weren't for the fact that I heard from the prince today that the young lady of the Li Dutong family is unwilling to help you clarify, you would be worried about me." ”

Mu Shengbai's heart warmed, and he was also a little puzzled, "This matter is true, but the prince only met Miss Li today, and you will know it at night, it seems that you have a good relationship with the prince." ”

Of course it's not shallow, we're brothers and sisters with the same father and mother.

Du Yueyan complained in her heart, and a natural smile swayed at the corner of her mouth, "I have known His Royal Highness the Crown Prince since I was a child, and I have a very strong relationship, today I went to the palace to see my aunt, and I happened to meet the prince, so I chatted, and he just mentioned you and he said about it, so that people can enlighten and enlighten you." ”

Mu Shengbai suddenly realized, "So that's the case." Then he was pleasantly surprised and said, "What is the best way to do that?" That's something I'm bothered about right now. ”

"Those ministers are mainly making a fuss about the fact that you don't have a wife in your house but you have three children, you can tell outsiders that you are still deeply in love with your wife who died of illness and can't bear the suffering of your children, so you don't plan to get married in the past few years, so won't the doubt about your inferior character be self-defeating?"

Mu Shengbai frowned, his right fist clenched, and he looked very struggling in his heart, "I can sit upright, why do I have to fabricate something out of nothing to explain other nonsense?" ”

Du Yueyan just likes his bright and upright temperament, but people are floating in the rivers and lakes, if there is no sinister plan and will not be overthrown by some evil people, "Having said that, but this is already the best way, if you let things ferment, it will not only affect your development, but may even affect the reputation of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who is tied to you in a jumping boat. ”

Mu Shengbai's brows furrowed even tighter, knowing that she was indeed right, she covered her eyes tiredly, and said heavily, "Let me think about it." ”
