Chapter 680: In Her Room
It's night.
In the quiet courtyard of Bihe, the starry sky casts a little silver light in the small pond, and pairs of koi fish flutter their tails, making a pleasant sound.
The candlelight flickered in the quiet room, and the rice paper in front of the girl in front of the bookcase was scribbling on something.
A gust of wind blew, and there was a slight sound behind her, Xia Qianwei's eyes flashed before she came back to her senses, who knew that when she turned around, she saw a clean and handsome figure lying lazily on the familiar couch.
The long waterfall-like hair was casually combed back and draped over the shoulders like silk, and the silver-white robe was slightly loose, revealing the delicate and graceful collarbone.
The cold man who originally rejected people thousands of miles away has a soft and deep light in his eyes at this moment, and there is a smile on the corner of his mouth, but there is a touch of natural charm.
The good-looking fingers gently pinched the grapes on the table, and sent them into his mouth without seeing anything outside, and his obviously very scoundrel behavior had a kind of innate dignity and elegance in his doing.
"......" This room has not been set foot by Mu Longyuan for a long time, which makes Xia Qianwei a little uncomfortable at this time, especially this man seems to have done it on purpose, and he always feels that his eyes are so hot that he seems to melt himself.
Mu Longyuan, who came uninvited, had no self-knowledge, and his face was a little relaxed and satisfied, "Well, it's still the fruit in your house that is sweet." β
Saying this, he spent all his time drinking in the willow alleys of the major flower streets as Nanyan, drinking the strongest wine and eating the most exquisite pastries, but he came to her to rub such a weak fruit.
"The prince is not afraid of being discovered?" Now he can't go back to Youwang Mansion, but this Bihe Courtyard is obviously not safe for Mu Longyuan.
"So I kept the door shut." Who knows, the man pillowed his arm and showed an extremely comfortable expression, as if he was planning to stay here tonight.
There was undisguised disgust in Xia Qianwei's eyes, Mu Longyuan suddenly raised his eyebrows, and his tone was a little incredulous, "What, does the princess want to let her husband sleep on the streets?" Now is the time to test your feelings and mine. β
didn't let him stay, but it was hers, wasn't it?
"It's not enough to sleep on the streets, now is the time to test whether the prince behaves properly on weekdays, I believe that the Qi guards or other Yan Youjun will be willing to vacate a room to show their loyalty."
"That's not good, their couch is not used to sleeping." The meaning of these words seems to be that he is only used to sleeping on Xia Qianwei's couch.
At this time, the girl's face was calm, if it was a woman next to her, I am afraid that she would have been hit by her fiancΓ© like a deer.
And she was trying to adapt herself to Mu Longyuan's shamelessness, and slowly stood up, "It's okay, I'll go to the study to rest tonight." β
"......" This girl, is she really so unkind?
Sure enough, if you miss such an opportunity, it will be hard to find it again!
However, Mu Longyuan is not a person who retreats from difficulties, "If you are willing to let this king stay, this king will tell you all the clues he has in his hands." β
Speaking of this, Xia Qianwei's eyes finally moved a little, and at this time, Mu Longyuan couldn't help but feel a little emotional, if this girl is really a man, I'm afraid she is also a conspiracy maniac.
"In the past, I didn't like to let you know too much, because I was afraid that if you fell into it, it would be difficult to clear up the relationship, but now if you and I want to be in the same boat, we must first let you know how dangerous my thief ship is."
He stretched out his hand and pulled Xia Qianwei into his arms, but it just happened to give her a glimpse of the piercing whiteness under her strong chest.
"This hurts...... Was it left when I was in Gangnam? β
Mu Longyuan looked like he had come back alive from Jiangnan very easily, but Xia Qianwei knew that things were not so simple, and it must be another imminent escape from death.
"It's not just hurting here, do you want to see it?" However, the scoundrel man smiled ruffianly, and was about to untie his clothes.
"No need, I'm still alive anyway."
Where could Xia Qianwei let him continue to play with fire, and Mu Longyuan also knew that if he continued to tease her, he was afraid that he would not even have a chance to speak.
He smiled slightly disappointed, but soon showed a serious expression.
"The Marquis and Mrs. Changxing, in fact, are not disgusted with you, they regard Mrs. Yurong as the pearl in their palms, and naturally love the house and Wu."
"I know, otherwise the two elders wouldn't have traveled a long way to attend my ceremony."
Although the old Hou Ye and Mrs. Hou Ye embarrassed her in public at that time, Xia Qianwei thought about it and felt that they were old, so why did they come all the way to scold her?
Thinking about it now, I am afraid that the Marquis of Changxing Mansion was already threatened at that time, so they understood that the catastrophe was coming, so they planned to see her for the last time.
Mu Longyuan's eyes were shining, he didn't expect Xia Qianwei's thoughts to be so clear, "Then do you know, who destroyed the Changxing Marquis Mansion?" β
I saw the girl in her arms raise her eyes, and there was a bit of chill in her clear eyes, "Mu Yunxiao." β
"But what did the maid say?" Mu Longyuan was a little surprised, how could she be so sure?
I saw Xia Qianwei smile lightly, these few contacts made her deeply feel how deep Mu Yunxiao's city government is, he is narrow-minded to the extreme, and he does not allow anyone to disobey and refuse his overtures.
From the mouth of the surviving maidservant in the Hou Mansion, it was learned that since Qin Yurong married Xia Yihai, Mu Yunxiao had cut off contact with the Hou Mansion of Changxing.
A benefactor who raised him as an adult, just because he didn't marry his daughter to him, he became a stranger, which really does not fit the image of Mu Yunxiao as tolerant, approachable and compassionate for himself.
I'm afraid that the seeds of hatred have already been planted in his heart, he remembers that Qin Yurong has no eyes, and he hates that the Marquis of Changxing has no adult beauty, and he feels that everyone has betrayed him.
Only King Ming will make the Marquis of Changxing so jealous, I am afraid that the old Marquis has already seen his character, so he has to live carefully over the years, and even the granddaughter he misses has to pretend to ignore it.
"Is that handmaid still in the Xia Mansion?"
Xia Qianwei shook her head, "Presumably she is the pawn arranged by Mu Yunxiao to provoke you and me, and she has been sent out of the house to be properly settled." β
"So, you never doubted me?" Mu Longyuan's voice was obviously a little pleasant, and the reason given by Xia Qianwei was very simple, "You won't kill loyal ministers, although you are despicable and domineering, you have your bottom line." β
"......" Mu Longyuan didn't laugh angrily, looking at Xia Qianwei's eyes full of appreciation, "Sure enough, the one who knows me is Princess Moruo." β
It seems that he can indeed be generously despicable in the future, although he has never hidden it in front of this girl.
At this moment, Mu Longyuan felt more and more that he and Xia Qianwei were a natural pair, and they had a good understanding.
