Mu Xinyu knew what he meant, but she didn't want her to be in the limelight anymore, after all, to Xiao Mengning, they were just outsiders.

Just as Qin Wu was about to take her away, Xiao Yibo suddenly called them.

"Is there something wrong with Lord Xiao?" Qin Wu asked lukewarmly.

"I heard that Princess Jiling met with the little girl yesterday? I don't know what the relationship between Princess Jiling and the little girl is? Xiao Yibo asked.

"Lord Xiao thinks too much." Qin Wu didn't give Mu Xinyu a chance to speak, and replied for her, "Yesterday, Neizi went out, but I saw the eldest princess talking to the second princess on the street, so I stepped forward to say hello to them. ”

"Then I wonder why the king and princess of Jiling are here?" Xiao Yibo asked again.

"I heard that there was an accident in the Second Prince's Mansion, this king and the princess came to see the excitement, but I didn't expect ......" Qin Wu paused for a moment, pretending to sigh, "Lord Xiao's day mourning, since the second princess has gone, you two elders should still take care of themselves." The king still has something to do, so he won't bother and take his leave. ”

After speaking, he hugged Mu Xinyu and turned to leave.

While they were talking, Mu Xinyu was also secretly looking at the couple Xiao Yibo and Duan.

Xiao Yibo, a scholar of the palace, is only in his forties, not tall, but his temperament is elegant and stable......

The tragic death of his daughter in front of him can still be done without panic, sadness or joy, isn't this father's love as stable as a mountain?

Let's talk about that Duan's ......

Alas! Still don't talk about it, my father has become a stepfather, what else does my stepmother have to say?

"Lord Wang, are you just leaving?" She still has a meal with Xiao Mengning, and now seeing Xiao Mengning's tragic death, she really doesn't feel good in her heart.

Let's say it's uncomfortable, it may feel fake, after all, they have only known each other for two days. But thinking of Xiao Mengning's tragic end, there was an inexplicable hatred in her chest.

"Let's go back, it's none of our business here." Qin Wu said in a deep voice.

Mu Xinyu glanced back again.

Xiao Yibo stood in front of his daughter's corpse, still didn't see much reaction, Duan looked like he was crying for his stepdaughter, but the dry howl couldn't hear how sad it was.

That's how parents ......

Back at the house, it was already dawn.

Sister-in-law Zhou prepared meals for them, but Mu Xinyu sat at the table, but she had no appetite at all.

Sister-in-law Zhou asked tentatively: "Princess, but what the slave maid did is not to your liking?" Why don't you remove the slave and redo it? ”

Mu Xinyu shook her head: "No, sister-in-law Zhou, don't get me wrong, I'm just in a bad mood and I can't eat a little." She immediately squeezed out a smile, "I always thought that being born in a powerful family and enjoying fine clothes and food since I was a child should be the happiest thing, after all, once I was born, I can have a height that others can't reach in a lifetime." But now I have found out that, in fact, no matter how good a person is born, he may not be able to enjoy glory and wealth, and no matter how well he marries, he may not be happy, just like the sun, even if it is shining, there are places that cannot shine. ”

Her emotion came from the bottom of her heart, but Qin Wu, who had never spoken, heard it darkly.

"Are you saying that this king can't give you happiness?"

"You...... I just think it's a pity that the second princess died, and I don't mean anything else. Mu Xinyu glanced at him angrily.

"Humph!" Qin Wu got up suddenly and left the room without looking back.

“……！” Looking at his angry back, Mu Xinyu was extremely speechless.

When did this guy become so stingy?

She is sighing for the tragic life of the second princess, where did she offend him?

"Princess, do you want to go with me?" Seeing her sitting still, Sister-in-law Zhou couldn't help but remind.

"I ......" Mu Xinyu frowned. He himself was inexplicably angry, could it be that he wanted her to coax him?

But she couldn't refuse, so she got up and followed.

In the garden, the man stood under the tree with his back hand, and he could feel the cold breath on his body from afar.

She pursed her lips and walked over to him and tugged at his sleeve behind him.

"Do you want to eat?"

"This king is not hungry."

"But I'm hungry! If you don't eat it, why am I embarrassed to eat alone? Do you think I've gained weight recently and want to help me lose meat? ”

Qin Wu turned around and pulled her into his arms.

The arms strangled her waist like an iron hoop, the deep eyes stared at her coldly, and the cold and hard face could be said to be full of 'I'm angry'!

"Lord ......"

"It's called Husband!"

"The Prince's Husband ......"

"You owe it to clean up!"

"Then call you 'Wu'!"

"You ......"

"What, don't you think the title is intimate enough? It's my exclusive nickname for you, it's like calling Zhen'er 'baby', are you sure you don't want to? Mu Xinyu pointed her finger at his chest.

The fire in Qin Wu's eyes was originally quite strong, but after her 'exclusive endearment', the fire in his eyes was instantly extinguished, and even his handsome face became sunny.

The previous unhappiness also disappeared like smoke, and Mu Xinyu couldn't help laughing: "Such a big person, because he ran out of his anger because of a few words, is it a shame?" ”

Qin Wu grabbed her slender fingertips and said with a smile: "If you don't chase it out, this king will naturally be embarrassed." If you chase it out, what shame is there to be there? ”

The corners of Mu Xinyu's mouth twitched fiercely.

"Lord Qiqi, the emperor sent someone to urgently summon you into the palace." Lei Fei suddenly ran into the garden.

Mu Xinyu hurriedly pushed Qin Wu away.

Qin Wu's thick eyebrows frowned slightly, glanced at Lei Fei, and then said to her: "Go back to the room and have a good rest, don't go anywhere, this king will come back as soon as possible." ”

"Hmm." Mu Xinyu nodded.

Seeing them leave, another ripple rippled in her heart.

It's not so much that they're husband and wife now, it's that they're in love, and she doesn't know if it's good or bad if they continue like this......

......

Qin Wu went and didn't come back for a whole day and night.

Regarding Xiao Mengning's death, Mu Xinyu sent Li Yuan to inquire about the news, and it is said that the emperor has sent someone to the Second Wangfu to deal with Xiao Mengning's funeral after hearing the bad news.

The funeral was simple, and it was buried on the same day.

Just because Xiao Mengning had smallpox before her death......

Seeing that there was no news of Qin Wu the next night, Mu Xinyu was inexplicably a little uneasy, so he asked Li Yuan to inquire.

At night, she couldn't sleep, waiting for Li Yuan to come back with news.

Unexpectedly, in the second half of the night, she suddenly heard a strange sound outside, and she even faintly heard a sound similar to splashing water.

She was startled, jumped out of bed and ran out, rushing directly into Ah Kui's room.

"Nurse, there is danger here, get out quickly!"

"Princess...... What's wrong? Ah Kui was scared by her.

Mu Xinyu quickly picked up the child from the cot, pulled out his legs and ran out: "Quick!" Go and call Sister-in-law Zhou and Xiaoyue! ”

Ah Kui came back to her senses, jumped out of bed and chased her out without even putting on her shoes.

However, when the three of them trotted out of the room, their faces changed drastically!

The room where Mu Xinyu lived was already on fire, and the fire spread rapidly like a wandering red snake. And on top of the high wall not far from them, there were several masked men in black!
