When Bai Muguan returned to the East Palace, it was already past the time for dinner, and she only brought Xiangyun with her when she entered the palace to participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet this time, and the rest of the maids stayed in Qingyun Pavilion to guard the courtyard. When she came back at this time, the inside and outside of Qingyun Pavilion were quiet, as if they were empty, and they were unusually quiet.

"Miss." Xiangyun was subconsciously uneasy, and his body involuntarily leaned towards Bai Muguan's side.

"Don't be afraid, it'll be fine." Saying that, Bai Muguan patted the back of her hand comfortingly.

At present, the place where they live is looking at the most heavily guarded East Palace in the capital, and it is unlikely that they will encounter any overt danger.

The master and servant stood outside the door for a moment, and then Xiangyun had the courage to step forward and push the door open. The candles in the room flickered, and there was a slender figure standing in front of the window.

Bai Muguan called: "Your Highness? ”

"You're back." Yu Wenye turned around and smiled at her.

Seeing this, Xiangyun hurriedly bowed and retreated, so that the two masters could be alone.

"When did Your Highness come over? Can you have dinner? Aren't you busy with official business today? Where did all the maids in the house go? Bai Muguan opened his mouth and threw out the questions one after another like a cannonball.

"I've heard what happened in the palace today." Yu Wenye didn't answer the question.

Bai Muguan didn't answer, just looked at him with a chuckle. She knew that he hadn't heard of it, but had deliberately planted a lot of eyeliner in the palace. Every move of anyone in the palace, as the crown prince, he needs to know everything to deal with it freely.

"What is Mu Rou looking for you for?" Yu Wenye's expression was slightly complicated, and the next half of the sentence was firm and could not be questioned and refuted, "I won't allow you to set foot in the troubled waters of the harem." ”

He hopes that he will be open-minded and open-minded, not contaminated with the intrigues of the harem, and not manipulate people's hearts like those resentful women in the deep palace. Her wisdom and strategy should be placed in the political affairs of the court or the confrontation between the two armies, and she should calmly stand in front of others to show her elegance.

The girl moved to the small round table of rosewood eight immortals and sat down, there were a few fresh pastries on the table, she picked up a piece of favorite pear blossom cake and put it in her mouth, and then said slowly: "I believe that Princess Hemu did not push Li Zhaoyi into the water. However, Li Zhaoyi is pregnant with a dragon heir, so it stands to reason that there is no need to risk the child in her womb, unless she is instigated and used. ”

Yu Wenye witnessed the whole process of her eating a piece of pear blossom cake with appreciation, and at the same time secretly laughed that she was still young and relatively simple-minded after all, and she was not sharp and direct enough to see things. However, what she meant was that she suspected that he wanted to use Yuwen Murou's hand to get rid of the child in Li Zhaoyi's womb?

In fact, she really didn't doubt him.

She meant something else.

Yu Wenye blurted out: "You doubt me? ”

Seeing her subconsciously annoyed expression, he couldn't help but secretly regret that he was impulsive.

After being surprised, Bai Muguan couldn't help but sink his face and said seriously: "I never doubted you. Because you don't have to harm Princess Hemu or Li Zhaoyi's unborn children. ”

Yu Wenye nodded slightly, blaming himself for being suspicious and ashamed. After being silent for a while, he lightly diverted the topic: "Most of the palace banquets can't fill your stomach, are you hungry?" If I'm hungry, I tell the kitchenette to bring some soup. ”

Bai Muguan shook his head: "Don't bother, I'm not hungry." ”

For a while, they didn't say anything to each other, each thought about it, and continued to fall into silence.

Suddenly, Bai Muguan raised his eyes to look at him, and his voice sighed with some astringency: "The harem is like a delicate little cage, in order to compete for power and profit, the canaries in it are intriguing with each other, and they can't wait to pull out each other's wings." And the capital is like a big cage, the birds in the big cage not only don't want to escape, but also squeeze their heads into the small cage! No wonder my mother grew up in the capital but did not like the capital very much, and after she went to Mobei with my father, she never wanted to return to Beijing. ”

Although Mobei is desolate and bitterly cold, and there are disturbances from foreign countries, the people there are simple and heroic, and there are not so many rights and wrongs.

Yu Wenye lowered his ink eyes and stared at her little white hand placed on the table at random, and couldn't help but hold it, and suddenly the warmth of her palm and the heat in his palm alternated.

The weight of his palm was heavy, and he whispered as if talking to himself: "As long as Wanguan is willing, I will always hold your hand, no matter how big the wind and waves in the capital are, I will not let go." ”

"Brother Ye, I ......" The girl's apricot eyes flowed, looking at him in disbelief, and she wanted to say something but she was stuck in her throat.

Yu Wenye suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at her closely, and the warm love that could not be hidden in his eyes was blurred. Then a flame crept up into his heart, and a hot and blazing current surged in his heart, and the back of his ears flushed abnormally. When he lived to be twenty-one years old, he confessed his heart to people for the first time: "Guanguan, I am pleased with you." ”

His eyes shone like obsidian in black paint, radiating a breathtaking light.

No one can doubt his sincerity at the moment.

"Do you really ......" Before she finished speaking, Yu Wenye's thin lips had already leaned over and landed on the corner of her forehead. With just a few clicks, before the beautiful scenery could bloom, he removed his lips.

At this time, he was as red-faced and apprehensive as a young boy who sympathized with Dou Chukai, putting aside his identity and honor, in front of his favorite girl, he was just an ordinary young man.

Just as he was still intoxicated by this warm and affectionate atmosphere, Bai Muguan asked coldly, "What can you give me?" ”

She asked a wonderful question.

Yu Wenye's eyes flashed slightly, one bright and one dark, and he quickly raised his sword eyebrows, and asked curiously: "What does Wanguan want?" ”

Whatever she asked, he believed he could do it, because he was the king of the future.

"You are the crown prince today, and it is precisely because of this that you can't give me what I desire the most." Bai Muguan felt a pain in her heart when she spoke, maybe she was also emotional about him, but she didn't know how much she liked him. I wonder if her love for him today can afford the loneliness and sadness of serving a husband with three thousand beauties in the future? She wasn't sure how long his passion for her would last.

Hearing her straightforward refusal, Yu Wenye's pupils suddenly contracted and reddened, and his emotions were rarely revealed, and he gritted his teeth and asked puzzledly, "Why?" Could it be that I, as the crown prince of the East Palace, am still a mistake in your opinion? Or do you hate the trickery in the harem? ”

At this time, Bai Muguan still didn't understand the vicious and cruel methods among the harem women, she just wanted to be the only one for her sweetheart. And he was destined to not be able to afford it, so she didn't want to.

The girl raised her bright and beautiful face, raised her eyebrows and smiled contemptuously: "It's not that I hate the harem, it's just that you have already married my cousin, and I can't be your rightful wife." Do you want me to be a concubine? ”

Yes, the dignified young general is a heroine, why don't you want her to be a concubine? Even if she is the side concubine of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, because of the word "side", Bai Muguan is not uncommon. Most importantly, she couldn't tell him bluntly that if she said she would be despised by the world. That is, she can't tolerate her husband's future wives and concubines, and she can't see him hugging left and right in her eyes. However, Yu Wenye, as the future son of heaven, whether he wants to or not, he must open the harem to the rain and dew.

The corners of Yu Wenye's mouth moved, and he didn't think of a reason to refute her after all. It is impossible for him to take Ye Shiying off immediately, it is impossible to give Bai Muguan the position of concubine, and he can't persuade her to be the concubine. It might be the deepest gulf between them, but he was determined that sooner or later he would cross it.

Seeing that he had nothing to say, Bai Muguan exhaled deeply and gave an eviction order: "It's late at night, Your Highness will go to the morning court tomorrow, go back to the study early to rest." ”

Yu Wenye couldn't cry or laugh, he was actually expelled by her in his East Palace. But the more different she is, the more obsessed he becomes.

"You'll go to bed sooner, too." After that, Yu Wenye got up and went out, and when the door of the palace was slammed shut, there was an inevitable sound, which shocked Bai Muguan's heart. I accidentally touched my eyes, and then I realized that my eye sockets were unconsciously hot and moist.

If there is no existence of her cousin Ye Shiying between them, if Yu Wenye is not the prince, if there is no Queen Tong who is inexplicably dislike her...... Or if she can clearly determine that she is in love with him, and is so loving that she is willing to gamble with everything, then she will definitely respond to his feelings.

She Bai Muguan is different from those ladies who are shy about their children's private affairs, she is a person who dares to love and hate, if she loves, even if it is a moth to the fire, she will not hesitate to move forward. If there weren't so many facts that she couldn't face, she would generously admit that she admired Yu Wenye today, and then slowly fell in love with him.

"Xiangyun, I want to bathe."

Didn't hear an answer.

"Xiangyun!"

Bai Muguan suddenly raised his voice.

There was a sudden sound of wind outside the window, and Bai Muguan listened vigilantly. The hollow carved windows of Qingyun Pavilion are very exquisite, the window frames are made of high-quality pear wood carvings, and the hollows are pasted with several thin layers of silver paper. This kind of silver paper is a palace product, impervious to rain and snow, and impervious to cold wind.

Through the silver paper, a black shadow flashed outside the window.

With a bang, Bai Muwan neatly pulled out the sword on the wall and pushed open the door of the hall without warning. The black shadow who was originally hiding by the window and snooping saw that she had discovered it, and hurriedly drew his sword against him. With a flash of silver light, the girl retreated swiftly and flashed. Another blow from the shadow foot, this time she was a step too late to dodge it, although she was agile.

The black shadow has good martial arts, and after three moves, Bai Muguan knows that the other party's strength is on par with himself.

Just as she was about to lift the black cloth on the other party's face and attack the black shadow door with her sword, the other party suddenly jumped up and jumped onto the eaves and fled.

Bai Muguan was afraid that he was deceitful, and did not pursue, but looked around to make sure that no one returned to the house.

The moment the door was closed, the girl showed a strange smile, which did not match her beautiful face. It seems that today in the Imperial Garden, it is not only Yu Wenye's spies who are eyeing her, but there must be someone else. Just at a glance, he knew that the other party was a master who couldn't hold his breath, so he sent someone to test her depth so quickly. If it doesn't work for the first time, I'm afraid there will be a next time.

Whose secret guard can quietly avoid the layers of guards in the East Palace, will it be the person of the great prince?

Bai Muguan smiled with interest, this incident suddenly diluted the subtle emotions before Yu Wenye left just now.
