I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

Chapter 289 The most ferocious shark.

Not long after, Li Mu appeared on the street opposite the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Oh my god! This is too arrogant."

Looking at Xiaoli running out from the side door and throwing herself into Miao Hu's arms as soon as she went out, Li Mu's mouth twitched involuntarily.

"Brother Huzi has been waiting for a long time."

Xiaoli's face was red. She hugged Miao Hu for a moment and then quickly backed away.

Miao Hu scratched his head, laughed foolishly twice, and said quickly:

"No, no, I just got here too."

As he spoke, he took out a small oilcloth bag from behind and waved it in front of Xiaoli.

"This is?"

"I asked someone to get it from Ruoshui Hall. Ladies from wealthy families eat this to maintain their pregnancies."

Li Mu, who was standing across the street, listened to the conversation between the two and raised his hand to pinch his brows.

Wow, she’s pregnant already?

Immediately, a figure flashed and appeared behind the two of them.

"Ms. Lu, Brother Miao, congratulations!"

Li Mu bowed to the two of them. Although his face was calm, he had already dug out a two-story western-style building under his feet.

"This is so fucking embarrassing."

"Shi, His Royal Highness..."

Xiaoli and the other two were stunned for a long time. They barely reacted and were about to salute Li Mu when they saw Li Mu turn his wrist and a jade hairpin appeared in his hand.

Li Mu pouted at Xiaoli, but she didn't respond for a long time.

He simply thrust the hairpin into her hair and left a sentence:

"This is for you on the first day of the new year. Goodbye!"

Then he disappeared right where he was.

Xiaoli took off the jade hairpin from her head, looked around for a moment, and snorted coldly:

"It's just an old hairpin. It's too late to show your affection now!"

"Xiao, Xiaoli..."

Miao Hu, who was standing by, had an unpleasant look on his face and called out in a low voice.

Xiaoli looked up at Miao Hu, stuffed the hairpin into his hand and said unhappily:

"What's that expression on your face? Do you think this hairpin is for me?"

Miao Hu was stunned, and seemed to remember how Li Mu addressed them, and hurriedly said with a smile:

"How could that be? Then, quickly give this hairpin to the Second Miss."

Unexpectedly, Xiaoli raised her chin, took Miao Hu's arm and walked away, saying angrily:

"What's there to send? The young lady already has a lover!"

"What about this hairpin?"

"Yes!"

"what?"

"..."

...

Li Mu's face became increasingly ugly on his way back.

Thinking that Lu Jianjia was pregnant, I felt like the sky was falling.

"That guy doesn't look that strong, how can he be so powerful?"

I have worked so hard for so long, but I haven't even seen a flower bud.

"Is it because I am not from this world that I am still subject to reproductive isolation?"

"Still, or... am I sick?"

Li Mu's mind was in a mess, and he always felt that the word "no" was written all over his face.

While thinking, he had returned to the exquisite waterside pavilion.

The three women who were standing at the gate of the mansion, looking forward to seeing Li Mu, were all stunned.

"Sir, why did you come back so soon? Did you see Miss Lu, Sir, Sir?"

Xiao Zhao quickly went to meet Li Mu, but saw that Li Mu had a dark face. He just nodded slightly after hearing her words and walked into the mansion on his own.

"Sir, will you lose to Miss Lu again tomorrow?"

Xiao Zhao refused to give up and shouted at Li Mu's back.

Hearing this, Li Mu looked at Xiao Zhao blankly, his expression slightly dull:

"Of course. Why are you asking?"

Immediately, a bit of struggle appeared on his face, and he thought to himself,

"You can't avoid seeing a doctor if you're sick. Why don't you go to Ruoshui Hall? I can't go to a doctor anyway. If Sister Ning'er finds out, how can I put my face aside?"

Xiao Zhao looked at Li Mu's back as he left silently, thought of the struggle on Li Mu's face before, and looked at Su Yuwei for help.

Su Yuwei frowned and shook her head slightly.

"This is not the place to talk, go to my room!"

After a while.

The three dog-headed military advisors gathered together again.

You looked at me, I looked at you, and after we sighed together, we stopped talking.

...

Li Mu walked along the corridor leading to the inner courtyard with a heavy heart.

Suddenly, his expression froze. He looked up and saw Yin Huanping appear in front of him. Without saying a word, she grabbed Li Mu and left.

The two of them arrived at Yin Huanping's house in a flash.

Li Mu was pushed down on the couch by Yin Huanping, with a bewildered look on his face:

"Ping'er?"

"Do not talk!"

"... "

The sage said, "At thirty you are like a wolf, at forty you are like a...

Bah! The saint never said that.

Li Mu leaned against the couch with a proud look on his face. Thinking of Yin Huanping crying and begging for mercy just now, the word "no" on his face was instantly wiped out.

I opened the window and looked at the moonlight outside. It was obviously midnight.

Confirm again, it can’t be done again!

He turned around and walked to the desk, looking at Yin Huanping who was writing furiously, and asked curiously:

"what is this?"

Yin Huanping slowly put down her pen, blew gently on the ink, and pulled Li Mu to sit beside her:

"Your Majesty, please grant you and Chuyi a marriage."

Li Mu was stunned, with a bit of embarrassment on his face. He felt that it was inappropriate to talk about this topic at this moment, so he quickly changed the subject:

"What about these?"

Yin Huanping raised her head and glanced at the pile of bamboo slips. Without thinking, she replied:

"That's the betrothal gift list."

Li Mu looked at the bamboo slips, which were piled up almost half a person's height. He coughed twice and said with a little embarrassment:

"Asking His Majesty for so many things, will it be..."

"What are you talking about!" Hearing this, Yin Huanping rolled her eyes at Li Mu and said unhappily,

"Of course we gave it to the girl."

???

"I'm not well educated, so don't lie to me!"

"Do I need to pay a betrothal gift to marry a princess?"

"Of course this is not for the first year..." Yin Huanping just opened her mouth, but glared at Li Mu fiercely, dissatisfied:

"What do you know! Don't make trouble!"

Li Mu shrugged, turned around and lay back on the couch. After thinking for a moment, he spoke tentatively:

"Do we have to go tomorrow? Why don't we just admit defeat and make our stance clear..."

Li Mu was already having a headache just fighting a powerless woman.

As a result, she is now a pregnant woman.

Beating a pregnant woman?

Just thinking about Li Mu makes my scalp tingle.

Upon hearing this, Yin Huanping paused the tip of the brush in her hand, and ink dripped onto the silk cloth.

After a long silence, he slammed the brush on the table, walked quickly to the bed, and said hesitantly:

"I originally also wanted to say..."

However, halfway through his words, he seemed to have thought of something, looked at Li Mu in astonishment and asked:

"You, you know everything, don't you?"

Li Mu looked at Yin Huanping's expression, pulled her into his arms, and asked curiously:

"Why do you have that expression? Do you know?"

"Are you talking about Lu Jianjia?"

“You…how did you…” Yin Huanping’s face suddenly turned pale and her voice became lower and lower.

"I went to the Prime Minister's Mansion this afternoon and saw her. What's that expression on your face? Don't you think she's pregnant..."

As Li Mu was speaking, Yin Huanping suddenly turned around and hugged her, saying anxiously:

"Li Lang, listen to me. His Majesty only wants one princess, Chuyi. If you have a wife at home, His Majesty will never give Chuyi to you."

"Let's trick Chuyi back home first. When we get back to the North, Chuyi won't care who you bring to the courtyard."

As Yin Huanping spoke, she looked up at Li Mu, her big eyes blinking like a poor little thing who had been wronged.

Hearing this, Li Mu frowned, slapped his thigh and said:

"Oh my god! Why didn't I think of that! It turns out that Chuyi is the most ferocious shark in my fish pond!"

Yin Huanping took a deep breath, nudged Li Mu's chest with her head, and said in a soft and sad voice:

"I was talking to you about the first day of the new year, and you were talking about a fish pond shark."

"Also, can you pat your thigh?"
