"I'm telling the truth." Mu Xiaochu said very sincerely.

During the conversation, Mu Xiaochu and their painting boat left the previous painting boat.

"No, it's too remote here." Looking at the boat that was far away from him, Mu Xiaochu was sullen and didn't even eat the fruit.

"Wait, what do you see there?"

"What?"

"Plop—"

"Xiao Chu, what are you doing, come up." Situ Yexi was in a panic, and he heard the sound of falling water, and then Mu Xiaochu's figure disappeared, and when he stood up, he saw that Mu Xiaochu had fallen into the water.

"Haha-it's okay, I can swim, and there's no one here anyway, so let me play in the water for a while." Mu Xiaochu came out of the water and refused.

On such a hot day, it is rare to see a place where the water is clear and deep, how can she let it go.

Mu Xiaochu quibbled for his actions: "And you see that this place is far away from other boats, they won't know it's mine." ”

Hearing this, Situ Yexi actually began to regret that he had let the boatman drive farther.

"Okay, but don't get too far away, just play around here." Knowing that Xiao Chu has been playing like this since he was a child, Situ Yexi didn't intervene too much, just asked her to be more careful.

"Got it." After saying that, his body sank into the water.

"Sure enough, his own sister-in-law, I remember that when he was very young, he always went into the water behind his father's back to play." Seeing this, Situ Yexi smiled helplessly.

Speaking of which, he shouldn't have hated Qi Ziyan so much, after all, it was because of himself that he found Xiao Chu, but when he thought that his sister who had just found him not long ago, he was taken away like this, and he was unwilling.

He still wants to spoil her for a few more years.

As for why he recognized his sister-in-law instead of recognizing her directly.

He felt that what Qi Ziyan said was very right, he was the only one in the family who cared about Xiao Chu, and the others didn't recognize it.

Qi Ziyan, who was in the palace at this time, after hearing the report of the secret guard, his eyes sank, and he quickly said goodbye to the emperor and left.

Suddenly, Mu Xiaochu poked his head out of the water and exclaimed, "I thought of it!" ”

"What's the matter, what the fuss is, is it too cold in the water?" Looking at Mu Xiaochu, who had just come out of the water, Situ Yexi thought that she exclaimed because it was too cold in the water.

Mu Xiaochu got on the boat with the help of Situ Yexi, and first changed his clothes, "Brother Ye Xi, let's go back first, I just thought of an idea and wanted to talk to Uncle Lin De." ”

Although Situ Yexi was very reluctant, he still nodded and said, "Okay." ”

However, as soon as they got off the boat, they saw Qi Ziyan who had gone to the palace.

"Qi Ziyan, why are you here?" Getting down from the boat, Mu Xiaochu walked up to him and said.

Qi Ziyan touched Mu Xiaochu's half-dried hair, "Why is the hair wet, and how can I change my clothes." ”

Mu Xiaochu took his hair away from Qi Ziyan's hand, "Oh, I just played in the water for a while, so my hair got wet." ”

After Mu Xiaochu finished speaking, Qi Ziyan looked at Situ Yexi and said in a salty tone: "You let her play in the water?" ”

"Don't blame Brother Ye Xi, I'm going to play by myself, hey, I won't tell you, I still have something to find Uncle Linde, so I'll leave first." Mu Xiaochu explained, and he was about to bypass Qi Ziyan and leave.

"Okay, let's not mention this matter for now, let's go back to Uncle Lin De now." Qi Ziyan looked at Mu Xiaochu helplessly, inexplicably jealous.

She only stayed with Situ Yexi for a while, and began to say good things for him, is it that after a long time, he will replace his position in Xiao Chuxin.

"There's a carriage not far away, let's go back quickly, it's not good to be outside with wet hair."

At this time, Mu Xiaochu thought that this was ancient times, and the requirements for women were very strict.

looked around and found that there was no one else, so he followed Qi Ziyan into the carriage.

On the carriage, Qi Ziyan used internal force to dry Mu Xiaochu's hair.

"It's amazing-" Seeing this scene, Mu Xiaochu was very surprised.

After seeing Qi Ziyan's approach, Situ Yexi began to regret that he had forgotten that he could use internal force to dry it, "Xiao Chu, I will too." ”

Qi Ziyan said disdainfully: "But you're useless." ”

Situ Yexi: "......"

"Yes, those who know how to have internal strength are so powerful." Mu Xiaochu looked at Situ Yexi in admiration, and then looked at Qi Ziyan, "Can't you not target Brother Ye Xi." ”

Qi Ziyan: "...... Good. ”

Damn, I knew that he wouldn't let Situ Yexi find Xiao Chu!

And when Situ Yexi on the side saw Qi Ziyan's dark face, he felt a burst of joy in his heart.

Even if you help me find Xiao Chu, even if you get along with Xiao Chu longer than him, Xiao Chu is still towards him.

Soon the three of them returned to the Shizi Mansion.

At the gate of the Shizi Mansion, looking at Situ Yexi, who was still planning to go in with them, Qi Ziyan's face was not good the whole time!

Qi Ziyan gritted his teeth and said: "Why don't you go back, is it really good for the concubine of the prime minister of a country to stay in someone else's house all the time." ”

Situ Yexi looked at the sky, then at Qi Ziyan's face, lowered his head and said, "Xiao Chu, then I'll come back to you tomorrow." ”

"Okay."

Qi Ziyan: "......"

Not good at all!

But now the priority is to get rid of people.

"Qi Ziyan, I'll go find Uncle Lin De first." As soon as Situ Yexi left, Mu Xiaochu ran into the Shizi Mansion to find Linde.

"Uncle Linde, are you at home, I have something I want to discuss with you-"

Lin De, who had just come back, looked at Mu Xiaochu who was running towards him and said helplessly: "If there is anything you can't walk slowly, you have to run over, what if you fall." ”

Mu Xiaochu laughed, "It's okay, I just came up with a good idea, I want to discuss it with you." ”

So one afternoon, Mu Xiaochu and Lin De were discussing in the room, leaving Qi Ziyan alone outside.

"You say, I'm not going to get Linde away?" Qi Ziyan muttered to the dark guard.

Before the dark guard could figure out how to answer, Qi Ziyan continued: "Forget it, with him in Xiaochu, he can still take care of some pastry shop affairs, then I will put up with him for a while." ”

Dark Guard: Sure enough, the young master has true love for the young lady, otherwise how could he make an exception for her again and again, it seems that he will please the young lady more in the future!

After Qi Ziyan muttered to himself for a while, he took some fruits and entered the house, "Xiao Chu, I'll bring you some fruits, let's continue to discuss after eating." ”

Linde got up from his chair and said, "Okay, I should go too, anyway, I basically understand what Xiao Chu said, just wait to see how it goes." ”

"Then please Uncle Linde." Mu Xiaochu took the fruit from Qi Ziyan's hand and handed it to Lin De, "Uncle Lin De, you can eat one too." ”

"No, you can eat, I'll go back first." Lind finished speaking and left.

"It seems that Uncle Lin De has done a good job in the pastry shop." Mu Xiaochu walked in and looked at the drawings on the table, "This is what you drew Xiao Chu?" ”

Mu Xiaochu said: "Yes, but there are still some areas that need to be improved." ”

"By the way, Qi Ziyan, have you noticed that my skin has been much better recently than before." Mu Xiaochu approached Qi Ziyan and said.

"W-yes, that's good."

"Qi Ziyan, how can you-" Mu Xiaochu looked at Qi Ziyan with wide eyes and surprise.

Qi Ziyan looked innocent, "What's wrong with me, I'm just helping Xiao Chu verify whether what you said is correct." ”

After holding it for a long time, Mu Xiaochu said a sentence, "Rogue-"

The corners of Qi Ziyan's mouth hooked up a shallow smile, "Only for you hooligans." ”

The Seven Princes' Mansion.

"Seven Princes, you can't go now."

"Get out of the way of Hongu!" The Seventh Prince shouted at the people who stopped in front of him.

"Your Highness, if you go now, all the cuts you made before will be ruined." The person who stopped said bitterly.

"Yuwen Mu, you came just in time, come and help me persuade His Highness together."

"What's the matter, Guard Zhang, what's the matter that keeps you holding your Royal Highness back?" Yuwen Mu who came shook a pu fan and said leisurely.

"Phew—you're going to put it on." Hearing this, Guard Zhang was extremely disdainful, "Don't pretend not to know with me, no matter what you say today, Your Highness can't go." ”

"Presumptuous! Zhang Donglin, in the end, are you the master or am I the master. "I have been stopped by others, no matter how good the temper of the Seventh Prince is, he is also angry at this moment.

Yu Wenmu walked in and said, "Your Highness, you really shouldn't have gone like this today. ”

"Your Highness, look, even Yuwen Mu doesn't approve of you going."

Yu Wenmu said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "No, I mean Your Highness can go, but you shouldn't go like this, after all, in the eyes of outsiders, you are a person who has just returned from recuperation." ”

Hearing this, the Seventh Emperor Emperor Chu Ge regretted, "If I had known, I should have gone to see Brother Yan first." ”

Then Emperor Chu Ge said angrily: "It's all you, you have to tell me about Brother Yan's return after I return to the capital." ”

Both of them bowed their heads and remained silent.

At that time, they saw the Seventh Prince's feelings for Qi Ziyan, so they chose to hide His Highness from His Highness the first thing he did when he came back.

Not only because he was riddled with cases when he returned, but also because after all these years, they were not sure if he knew whether he was friend or foe......

After a while, Yuwen Mu said with a good attitude: "Your Highness, this matter is my fault, I will arrange for you to meet with the prince tomorrow now." ”

At the end, Di Chuge explained with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "I know that you are all my henchmen, and you are doing this for my good, but what you don't know is that no matter what happens, Brother Yan will be my Brother Yan." ”

The next day, in the restaurant.

"Brother Yan, I didn't expect you to be alive." There was irrepressible surprise in Di Chuge's tone.

"Yes, I'm still alive, so my cousin is worried about me, I should have contacted my cousin earlier." Qi Ziyan walked in and sat down, and said with remorse in his tone.

Di Chuge's voice choked, "It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive." ”

"Cousin, I've suffered you all these years." Looking at the somewhat thin person, Qi Ziyan felt sorry for this cousin for the first time.

Qi Ziyan's eyes were a little moist, "How come, I'm very good, it's because Brother Yan has suffered a lot." ”

"By the way, where have you been all these years, why didn't you come to me since you were still alive." As soon as the topic changed, Di Chuge complained.

"Six years ago, I was rescued by a man in the village, and I have been living with her in the town ever since." Qi Ziyan said that when Mu Xiaochu was young, there was a strange gentleness in his eyes.

Di Chuge naturally also liked to see this, and said firmly: "The person who saved you is a woman, and you like her." ”

"Yes, I like him very much, and I hope my cousin will accept her too." For this cousin, he cherishes it from the bottom of his heart, otherwise in his previous life, he would not have been regarded as a traitor for him.

So he hopes that in this life he can accept Xiao Chu.

Di Chu Ge saw the cherishment in Qi Ziyan's eyes, and said: "Yes, since it is the girl that Brother Yan likes, it is naturally excellent." ”

"She's naturally the best." Qi Ziyan did not hesitate to praise.

Di Chu Ge; “.…..”

"Okay, since it's a future brother and sister, then I'll prepare some meeting gifts for her first, pop-" Di Chuge finished speaking, clapped his hands, and quickly walked up a few people.
