The two chatted without saying a word, and a crimson figure came from far and near, Mo Li and Ruoping stopped at the same time, looking at the Seven Princes coming from the Hanging Flower Gate.

Mo Li has always felt that men are very coquettish when they wear clothes similar to red, but the crimson moon brocade robe is natural when worn on the body of the Seventh Prince Zhong Hanmiao, and there is no sense of disobedience at all, but it makes him look a little more free and uninhibited.

"Miss Jinxi, what a coincidence, we met again." Zhong Hanmiao didn't mind that Mo Li was still sitting and didn't get up to salute, but instead sat down on the stone bench next to him, opened the folding fan in his hand and shook it gently.

"Why didn't the Seventh Prince go to the barracks with him?" Mo Li wondered that the Qingyuan military camp was the first place Murong Chu inspected, why didn't this guy go?

"How can the barracks have such a good scenery as the government office."

Zhong Hanmiao glanced at Mo Li with a hint of banter.

Mo Li's face turned slightly pale, and he stood up and said, "Don't disturb the Seventh Prince to enjoy the scenery, I'm out of company!" ”

"Just kidding, Miss Jinxi don't be surprised. There is a long road ahead, and Miss Jinxi, like this prince, does not want to be in danger. Zhong Hanmiao smiled like a spring breeze, but his eyes were clear.

Mo Li sat down again: "Although Ruoping is nominally my personal maid, in fact he is more like my best friend, and the Seventh Prince has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it." ”

One sentence made Zhong Hanmiao couldn't help but look at Mo Li again, this little girl is not very old, but she is so smart, before he can open his mouth, he was blocked by her.

"I didn't expect Miss Jinxi to trust the people around her so much after the incident on the eve before."

"There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need to suspect people. Although I was pitted, I can't be bitten by a snake once, and I'm afraid of the well rope for ten years. Besides, not everyone can do that kind of betrayal. Mo Li's tone was light, as if he was saying something that had nothing to do with him.

"Ming people don't talk darkly, so we don't have to go around in circles. I am still very grateful for the help of the Seven Princes before. However, I am a weak woman, and I really have nothing to contribute to the Seven Princes, so I can only remember the kindness of the Seven Princes. ”

Zhong Hanmiao secretly thought in his heart, it seems that he really met an opponent today, he is grateful, he can't repay it, so he simply won't repay it, hehe, it's really a little interesting.

"This prince met Miss Jinxi for the first time today, why don't you know when he helped Miss Jinxi?"

The corners of Mo Li's mouth twitched, and it was Zhong Hanmiao who pretended to be confused, obviously he had something to say, but he always liked to go around, and he was not too tired.

"The Seven Princes don't live in the inn, they have to camp in the forest, do they just want to taste the taste of feeding mosquitoes? Or did the Seventh Prince deliberately drag the general and prevent him from crossing Heyuan Town? ”

"Did General Murong tell Miss Jinxi like this?" Zhong Hanmiao raised an eyebrow.

"If the General told me anything, would I still be here to listen to the Seven Princes go around in circles?" Mo Li raised his chin slightly, stared at Zhong Hanmiao and said, "The Seventh Prince will say it clearly, what do you want?" ”

Zhong Hanmiao met Mo Li's gaze, his bright eyes seemed to be looking into his bones, he straightened his face, and said in a daze: "I, want, self, preservation." ”

Mo Li noticed that he used "I" this time, instead of "this prince". Let's just say that the person who grew up in the courtyard of the deep palace can never be as pure and harmless as he seems, even if he is a swinger who has no intention of politics and has no quarrel with the world.

Addicted to and having fun, not participating in political affairs, and not caring about anything is just a façade, as a prince, even if he is not interested in that supreme position, he is inevitably suspicious of others.

The royal family is ruthless, not to mention that he is the younger brother of the King of Jin, the King of Jin is defeated, he is definitely a dead end, even if the King of Jin is successful, he may not always remember the brotherhood.

Mo Li understands Zhong Hanmiao's current situation, if it is really as he said, he just wants to protect himself, then he is definitely a smart person, and he has not been carried away by power and lost his mind.

However, Mo Li didn't want to just take advantage of his stubble, she pursed her lips slightly, and chuckled: "The Seventh Prince is a high-ranking and admirable existence, and the word self-preservation doesn't seem to have anything to do with the Seventh Prince, right?" ”

Zhong Hanmiao laughed twice, and shook his head with a fan: "Miss Jinxi said just now that she didn't go around in circles, why are you pretending to be confused again?" ”

"It's not that I want to pretend to be confused, I really don't understand, the little woman is not protecting her own life now, how can she still have the ability to protect others." Mo Li looked innocent, and sighed to express his helplessness.

"You can." Zhong Hanmiao suddenly put away the folding fan and looked at Mo Li seriously, "Actually, you understand everything, you just don't believe in my sincerity." But that's okay, there's still a long way to go, and one day, you'll know what I'm saying. ”

"Why me? King Jin is your own brother, you don't even believe him, how can you believe me? Mo Li took his look into his eyes, and a light smile hung on his lips, "Aren't you afraid that I will betray you?" ”

"There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need to suspect people. That's what Miss Jinxi just said. Zhong Hanmiao's expression was a little solemn, "I didn't have the intention of fighting for power, but I couldn't help it." I don't have any other extravagant hopes, I just want to be an idle prince in the future and spend this life happily. ”

"But they don't think so, they want too much, but there are some things that you don't want, what should be yours is always yours, not yours, no matter how many means you use, you can't get it. I don't want to be someone else's stepping stone, and it's the kind of stepping stone that is crushed by others. ”

Mo Li didn't expect Zhong Hanchi to be so direct, after all, he didn't look like he was in his twenties, and if he was put into modern times, he should still enjoy a good student life on a university campus, but here, he had to bear the pressure of not matching his age.

But Mo Li also knew that Zhong Hanmiao didn't want her to help, but rather that he took a fancy to Murong Chu and Mo Jinhua behind her.

Needless to say, Murong Chu holds military power, even if it is Mo Jinhua, although he is only a small civil official, with his character and official reputation, he will have a great future in the court.

With the help of these two people, no matter who is in power in the future, they can help him win a chance to live a safe life.

On the contrary, for Murong Chu and Mo Jinhua, it is also good to have one less person who stabs in the back, and this deal is a win-win result no matter how you look at it.

Mo Li rubbed the corners of his forehead, stood up and blessed: "Try it, but what will happen in the end depends on what the Seventh Prince does." I'm a little tired, I want to go back to my room to rest, and the Seven Princes will enjoy the scenery slowly. ”

This time, Zhong Hanmiao didn't stop her again, but just bowed slightly, which was regarded as a farewell.
