Seeing the opportunity, Chi Wan hurriedly raised his steps and prepared to leave, but Mu Zhufeng turned around and came back, and Chi Wan hit his chest in a daze.

"But you'll have to hear me first," Mu Zhufeng said, "and then you'll be deciding whether to leave or not." ”

Chi Wan pursed her lips, forcibly suppressed the impatience in her heart and said, "Okay, you can say it." ”

Mu Zhufeng said: "Recently, the world outside has not been peaceful. Staying here, first of all, your safety can be guaranteed, this is the general's mansion, where you may suffer, but here you can be safe, so some people don't have to bother. ”

Chi Wan said: "You don't have to worry about this at all, although I don't have the ability to fight Chi Wan, but I still have the ability to save my life, as long as I want to escape, no one can catch me." ”

"That's just one of them," said Mu Zhufeng, "don't you care about others?" I think you should know who I'm talking about, sometimes your life is often more cherished than you think it is. ”

Chi Wan couldn't help but think of Xie Yutang, but then she shook her head again, she couldn't be deceived by these ambiguous words that Mu Zhufeng said now, the other party had no way of knowing for what purpose she was locking up.

"I'm leaving, let me go."

Mu Zhufeng sighed, he still wanted to fight for it after all, he said: "Anyway, I'm giving you a day to calm down and think about it, if you still want to leave at that time, I will naturally not stop you." ”

Seeing Mu Zhufeng's sincerity, Chi Wan asked him rhetorically, "Really? ”

Mu Zhufeng nodded and said, "Really, a manly man, it is difficult to chase after a man." ”

Chi Wan thought that she was not in a hurry, so she had to compromise with Mu Zhufeng, and Mu Zhufeng naturally ordered that the door of the courtyard should not be locked, and then the meal would be delivered by the maid herself, of course, it was also Chi Wan's favorite dishes.

Everything is still so attentive, he is more careful about taking care of her than he is on the battlefield, his care is as silent as spring rain, he doesn't want to embarrass Chi Wan and satisfies his wishes.

Back in the study, Mu Zhufeng sat at the table, he leaned back in the chair, thinking about the conversation between the two when the prince looked for him not long ago.

At that time, the crown prince was in his mansion, and on the table was the plan he had prepared.

He said: "The current situation is really becoming more and more unfavorable for me, the king of Chu has won the emperor's trust three times and twice, Xie Yutang has also benefited, and the people sent by the king to assassinate them have failed one by one, if I continue like this, I am afraid that there will be no chance." ”

"I wonder what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has to do?" Mu Zhufeng asked.

The prince said, "Since the secret guard Deadpool sent by him can't kill them, it's better to start from elsewhere." ”

Mu Zhufeng felt a little uneasy in his heart, especially after listening to what the prince's family said, the emotion was even stronger: "I found that Xie Yutang seems to be very interested in a woman, and I also sent someone to investigate her, that woman's name is Chi Wan, she also opened a shop in the capital, if we can use her to attack Xie Yutang, it will be equivalent to grasping his weakness for so long, and then Xie Yutang will not be at our mercy?" ”

Ji Wan? Unexpectedly, the prince was ready to extend his magic grasp to Chi Wan, which surprised Mu Zhufeng. Mu Zhufeng naturally didn't want the prince to do this, after all, he still had old thoughts about Chi Wan. But after all, the other party is his master, and now there is really no place for him to speak, and he is not qualified to admonish the other party not to do this.

Then the prince began to talk, he had already thought of many ways to catch Chi Wan, the simple thing was to directly seize Chi Wan and put him under house arrest, if the other party didn't start to have some vicious methods, Mu Zhufeng couldn't bear to listen to it.

He had a thought in his heart, and then came up with a brilliant idea and took the initiative to ask the prince: "Your Royal Highness the prince, it is better to leave this matter to the last general." ”

The prince still didn't believe Mu Zhufeng at that time, after all, Chi Wan and him were husband and wife before, and it was inevitable that there might be an act of covering up from it.

However, Mu Zhufeng then said: "Your Highness, rest assured, since Your Highness released the last general from the dungeon, the last general knows in his heart which is more important, and who is his life for." ”

Hearing his statement, the prince was a little relieved, and he thought that the last time Chi Wan took the initiative to frame him, it had completely hurt his heart, even if the remaining feelings might only be resentment.

"Okay, tell Your Highness what exactly you plan to do with that woman?"

Mu Zhufeng replied: "Since you want to control Xie Yutang through her, then you must first ensure the safety of that woman and that her life cannot be harmed, but you must restrict her freedom, so naturally you want to put her under house arrest." In this way, not only can we ensure that the woman will not mess around, but also can put a long line to catch big fish, so that Xie Yutang will be willing to work for us. ”

"This method is very good, and His Royal Highness will send someone to assist you at that time, since you took the initiative to ask for instructions this time, then the important task of house arrest of that woman will be handed over to you." The prince also thought that he could take this opportunity to take a good look at Mu Zhufeng's sincerity, and in the face of Chi Wan, a former acquaintance, could he stick to his true heart?

So the current Mu Zhufeng, on the surface, is actually doing things for the prince, but he is just protecting the people he wants to protect in disguise. So no matter what, he has to persuade Ji Wan to stay and save her life, which is the most important thing.

The next day came in a blink of an eye, and Ji Wan obviously didn't change her mind, she still wanted to leave. When Mu Zhufeng stood at the gate at the agreed time with Chi Wan, Chi Wan was already one step ahead of him, tidied up his clothes and was ready to leave at any time, just waiting to say goodbye to him.

"Do you really want to go?" Chi Wan nodded vigorously, and Mu Zhufeng was a little disappointed.

"It's not for me to say, Chi Wan, for the sake of our old feelings, I'll tell you what will happen to you once you get out of this door." Mu Zhufeng seemed to have made up his mind, because he knew that if he didn't tell her the truth, she would definitely not be moved by himself.

"This is a very difficult time, the prince is ready to move, I think he has done some bad things to you before, you should be aware of it. Now the prince's target is not the King of Chu or Xie Yutang, but you, and he wants to use you to threaten people who are more worthy of use. ”

"Like I said, there are some people who value your own life more than yourself, and they will be willing to give anything or even their life for you, and as for who they are, I don't think I need to say that you know it yourself."

"If you stay here, I can protect you, and the prince believes me, so he won't do anything to you if you stay here. As soon as you leave, he will send people to arrest you, use you, and even torture you, and he will not hesitate to do so. ”

"So once you get out of here, you have to think about what the consequences will be, and if you are willing to suffer such consequences, then you can leave."

Mu Zhufeng said a long list of words in one breath, and Chi Wan was stunned for a moment, and after he finished speaking, he turned around and left, and really didn't have any intention of continuing to stop Chi Wan.

After hearing all this, Chi Wan only felt that if this was really the case, Mu Zhufeng's image would suddenly change from a bad guy to a good guy, which made Chi Wan shocked.

But thinking about it, all this he said is not unreasonable, and she has also learned the viciousness of the prince's methods, so if she leaves here, it is very likely that what Mu Zhufeng said just now? Something.

Chi Wan calmed down, and not long after Mu Zhufeng left, she also turned back to her room to think about what she had just said, he didn't want to implicate other innocent people because of himself, or hinder them.

It's like saying that Xie Yutang, if he is caught by the prince, with Xie Yutang's heart for himself, he will most likely work for the prince for himself. Wouldn't he have become a sinner for the ages?

Therefore, Ji Wan, who has always been afraid of trouble, suddenly sorted out all these things. Yes, she can't just leave like that, and it's not too late to go out when things calm down.

Besides, looking at the way Mu Zhufeng treats himself, he no longer has the obsessive appearance he used to have, which makes Chi Wan feel a lot more relieved.

Considering the pros and cons of everything, Chi Wan finally made up her mind, she lay on her back on the made bed, and said to herself: "Okay, then let's stay, just give yourself a vacation." ”

On the other side, Mu Zhufeng was sitting uneasy in the study, he stood by the window for a while, hesitated for a while, and paced back and forth in the room for a while, he was really afraid that Chi Wan would leave without regard to the consequences.

"Master, what do you have to tell you to find a slave?" A doorkeeper in Chi Wan's courtyard was summoned.

Mu Zhufeng asked her, "Has the young lady in the courtyard left?" ”

"Does the master mean Miss Chi? She did not leave," replied the maid, "and after listening to what her master had said, she went back to her room and never came out again, and the maid who went in to deliver the meal said that she was indeed inside. ”

Great, she didn't leave, Mu Zhufeng breathed a sigh of relief, and the big stone he chose in his heart also fell. He dismissed the maid, and for some reason there was some relief and some joy in his heart.

The relief is that Chi Wan did not bet with her life, and at that time, her heart will be hurt and uncomfortable; The joy lies in the fact that he can get along with Chi Wan and the two, although there is no intersection, but being able to live under the same roof and be able to see her every day is enough.
