Chapter 288: It will never be easy

Mu Anle winked at Bai Shilin, understanding that he had other things he wanted to tell himself, but he didn't say it, so he immediately asked without hesitation.

"Anyway, it's just the two of us here, whatever you want to say, just say it boldly, no one else will know, don't worry!"

Bai Shilin watched Mu Anle grimace at himself, which made his originally heavy mood finally feel better, so he nodded and smiled at her.

"Actually, to put it nicely, the emperor has never had any precautions against King Nan'an and Qi Junyi, and even cares for them very much, otherwise he would not have valued Qi Shizi so much."

"But ......" said Ke Ke, Bai Shilin suddenly frowned, and seemed to be a little anxious, "I always feel that things will not be so simple." ”

"After all, the emperor has taken back the country from the hands of the king of Nan'an, and Qi Shizi should be a candidate for the emperor, he must still be on guard against them, but they have never been discovered by us."

"I think it's ...... too"

Mu Anle nodded at Bai Shilin, and there was a look of affirmation in her eyes, in fact, as early as when Bai Shilin told her all this, she vaguely felt that the emperor would never let them go so easily.

If the emperor is really kind, he doesn't have to put the king of Nan'an in the capital, and he will always remember that he has won the country every day.

He can give King Nan'an a fief and let him take care of himself, away from the capital, out of sight and out of mind, and no one will provoke anyone and hinder anyone.

Not only that, but he also recruited the young and ignorant Qi Junyi into the Royal Academy, and let him study with a group of princes and nobles, presumably to monitor his every move, in case he might do something unexpected outside his sight.

But no matter what the emperor thinks in his heart, in fact, these things have nothing to do with Mu Anle.

So in the end, she just raised her head and smiled indifferently at Bai Shilin, and even reached out to pat him on the shoulder.

"Okay, actually, we shouldn't be here to discuss what the emperor thinks in his heart, no matter what he is

None of this is something we should care about, so don't worry about it! ”

"You're right." Bai Shilin nodded lightly at Mu Anle, "So by now, you should understand why the third prince said such a thing to Qi Shizi, right?" ”

Mu Anle nodded at Bai Shilin without hesitation, with a touch of gratitude in his eyes.

"It's just ......" But after that, she suddenly thought of something very important, "I don't know who the emperor intends to appoint as the crown prince, if it is really the third prince, then there will definitely be turmoil in this country again." ”

Bai Shilin was slightly stunned, originally thought that Mu Anle would say what kind of words, but he didn't expect that she was actually worried about this matter.

After hearing this, he couldn't help laughing, and slowly shook his head at Mu Anle, he really couldn't understand what she was thinking about all day long in her little head.

"Anle, this matter you are thinking about is not something we should worry about. What's more, you also understand what kind of temper the third prince is, and the emperor probably knows it in his heart, so we don't need to worry about this matter. ”

"It's ......" Mu Anle nodded to Bai Shilin, and just as he was about to say something more, he suddenly heard footsteps approaching them.

So the two looked at each other, immediately became alert, immediately returned to the place where they had put the dry firewood just now, immediately picked up the firewood, and then walked out expressionlessly.

That is, when they had just walked a few steps, they happened to bump into Qi Junyi who walked in, and the three of them looked at each other until Mu Anle laughed first.

"Your Royal Highness, we have already picked up firewood, and we are just about to go out, what are you doing when you suddenly come in?"

Qi Junyi did not answer Mu Anle's question, but scanned her and Bai Shilin from top to bottom, and stared at the eyes of the two of them tightly, as if he had to see something.

Looking at his vigilant and doubtful gaze, Mu Anle couldn't help but get nervous, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and kept muttering in his heart, hoping that Qi Junyi would never see any difference.

And that's what she's so worried about

At that time, Qi Junyi finally chose to give up, and just spoke coldly to the two.

"Is it really that hard to just pick up dry firewood? Do you know how long you two have been around? ”

"Ah......" Mu Anle was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect Qi Junyi to let himself go so easily, so he immediately opened his mouth with a smile.

"It's my first time collecting dry firewood, so I don't know what works and what doesn't. Bai Gongzi has taught me for a long time, and I picked up such a large number of them, they should all be usable, right? ”

After Bai Shilin heard this, he immediately spoke up to Mu Anle and acted with her.

"Yes, you're right, you can use it!"

Mu Anle even handed it to Qi Junyi like a treasure, wanting him to take a good look at how much credit he had made today.

Of course, only she understands that in fact, she is only doing this to hide people's eyes.

But Qi Junyi didn't seem to suspect her because of this, just looked at her silently for a while, and then immediately stretched out his hand to take all the firewood in Mu Anle's hand, and then turned around and walked out of the woods.

"Now that you've found everything you're looking for, what are you going to do if you stay here, don't get out quickly!"

It wasn't until he saw Qi Junyi turn around and leave that Mu Anle breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at Bai Shilin, and also looked at him and smiled helplessly at himself, and seemed to finally be relieved, everything was in plain sight.

So Mu Anle followed behind Qi Junyi and walked towards the outside of the woods step by step, until the moment she could see the firelight, she finally let down all the guards in her heart.

And she knew that the conversation between her and Bai Shilin in the woods today must not be told to anyone, not even Qi Junyi.

Although Qi Junyi is likely to force her to ask her if she and Bai Shilin have said something, Mu Anle understands that even if she needs to make up some fabricated excuses, she must deceive him.

Because she really didn't want Qi Junyi to suffer that kind of injury since he was a child, and now she still had to show his old injuries in front of him with blood again.

It's cruel to do that. 2k reading web
