Chapter 125: The Lingering Crown Princess
Seeing that she didn't think too much about being unhappy, Beitang Yi quickly got up and washed his hands again, then asked someone to change the warm water for her.
Mu Lianzhi finished the meat pancake in her hand in small bites, squinting her eyes in satisfaction.
I miss the free time in modern times when we could go in and out freely, visit night markets and snack streets.
It would be perfect if it could be realized in this dynasty.
The maid came in to clean up. Mu Lianzhi was thinking wildly and got up to wash up.
Soon there were only two people left in the room.
Mu Lianzhi strolled back and forth in front of Beitang Yi, rubbing her belly and stretching her arms and legs to strengthen her stomach and help her digest food.
"Why did you think about your small figure right after eating?"
In the past, whenever he made something delicious at night, he would often hear her screaming, blaming him for seducing her. It was only recently that he discovered that she was not dull at all, but rather a little cute and very protective of her pretty little feathers.
Today is really a bit abnormal.
He took out a persimmon and an orange from the bamboo basket he brought with him, shook them as a gesture, and peeled the orange:
"I brought them specially for you. The oranges just arrived today. They should be the first batch of this year. I didn't wait for them to pick them carefully, so I just picked a few up. Do you want to eat them?"
She walked forward and leaned towards him. Finally, Mu Lianzhi simply sat on his lap, broke off a slice of orange and put it in her mouth, not forgetting to put one slice for him as well.
The sweet and sour juice is abundant and very refreshing.
"Why are you so attentive today? Do you want to ask me something?"
"Is it not okay for me to be happy?"
Mu Lianzhi glanced at him with dissatisfaction, then snatched the remaining oranges and continued peeling them.
"Happy? Are you happy that the Marquis's Mansion is happy? Aren't you afraid that one thing can overcome another, and that Master Bao will instantly become a true lover?"
It's really hard to say about things like feelings.
It was as if he had somehow taken her in the first place, and had been secretly entangled with her, a widow, for three years; he was about to let go before, but in the end he got deeper and deeper into it without knowing it.
In the past, if anyone said that this was something he could do, he would beat him to death.
But in fact, he not only did it, but also enjoyed it.
"If she really has this ability, it's God's will. Anyway, it's her own fault. She has to bear the consequences herself."
It is difficult to change one's nature, and she doesn't believe that such a cold-blooded and violent person can become a good person.
However, even if Bao Yanqing was not there, there was still Hua Shuolei. She was not afraid. She was afraid that these two people would bite her in the future. As long as they did not cause trouble for her anymore, she would not care that much.
Thinking of something, Mu Lianzhi paused while peeling the orange:
"By the way, now that you mentioned that, I really remembered something. It's somewhat related to what you told me last time. Could you trouble Lord Beitang to help me with a little more?"
After stuffing another orange into his mouth, she whispered softly in his ear:
"I'm afraid that only Master Beitang can do this. If I don't have your protection, I'm afraid that I will be eaten by others without anyone to rely on."
She blinked her long eyelashes and tugged at his collar coquettishly:
"Nod your head quickly. I have prepared a thank-you gift for you."
Unable to hold back his laughter, Beitang Yi burst into laughter and raised his hand to gently pinch her nose:
"You're asking for help in such a fancy way?"
Originally, he wanted to ask her what she was going to do, but at that moment, Beitang Yi felt that it didn’t matter, as long as she was happy.
Holding her slender waist, he saw that her previously thin cheeks had become plump again, and he pinched her rosy cheeks again:
"You, I really can't do anything about you."
Smilingly climbing onto his shoulder, Mu Lianzhi had just peeled a slice of orange and was about to give it to him when Ying Feng's voice suddenly came from outside the door:
"My Lord, there is new news."
Startled for a moment, Beitang Yi gently pushed Mu Lianzhi from his body:
"come in."
Yingfeng strode in, but he still caught some sights out of the corner of his eyes. Afraid of seeing something he shouldn't see, he slowed down his pace and lowered his head a little more.
Beitang Yi stood up and walked over directly:
"Where did it come from?"
Since Yingfeng addressed him as "Master", Beitang Yi knew that the message was sent by Yutian Pavilion. He took it and asked casually, not noticing Yingfeng's distorted and embarrassed expression and the way he kept winking at him.
He turned the wax ball in his hand over habitually and looked at it. Beitang Yi looked at him again with dissatisfaction:
"what happened?"
This time, Yingfeng lowered his head even lower:
"It's the prince... the prince's mansion."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room dropped by more than ten degrees. Beitang Yi paused as he held the pill in his hand, and he almost bit off his tongue in annoyance:
Why does he have to say so much?
It’s really hard to pick up any pot!
The Crown Prince's Mansion is different from others. They have secret agents but he has never activated them. How could they take the initiative to send him a message without His Majesty's order or his summons? Unless it is someone close to the Crown Princess or it is an important matter.
Because Beitang Yi was facing away from Mu Lianzhi, he couldn't see her reaction at this moment, and he unconsciously exchanged glances with Yingfeng, but Yingfeng habitually avoided Mu Lianzhi, and for a moment he didn't know how to react.
The most important thing is that he really didn't understand that person and couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry.
Mu Lianzhi didn't notice the two men's shifty eyes and stiff movements for a second, so how could he not notice them for a while?
"My Lord, do you want me to avoid it? Or should I just go back?"
Without asking, I know that the letter is most likely from the Crown Princess!
Curling her lips, Mu Lianzhi suddenly felt a little disappointed. What should she do with her jade pendant? Should she give it to him or not?
She was twisting her body on the spot, struggling with herself, when Beitang Yi suddenly turned around:
"No need, it won't affect anything."
Then, he spread out the note, Beitang Yi quickly scanned it, and grasped it with his palm:
"It's okay, you can go down and rest too."
He waved his hand, clasped his fists in salute, and then Yingfeng slowly retreated.
Seeing this, Mu Lianzhi roughly knew that it was not something urgent or something that needed to be done hastily.
Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly smelled a burning smell. She looked down and saw fire coming out of Beitang Yi's palm. She rushed over with a few big steps:
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Grabbing his hand, Mu Lianzhi eagerly pounced and patted:
"I'm not going to peek, why are you in such a hurry to destroy the body? Did you burn your hands?"
Spreading out his palm and brushing off the dust on it, Mu Lianzhi was stunned:
No burns?
I lowered my head and looked at the ground. I clearly saw a small pile of ashes from a burn. What happened?
Before she could react, someone suddenly hooked her waist and she crashed into a strong chest. Then, someone rubbed her nose hard:
"It's not to protect you. This is a method of verifying the authenticity of secret letters. Special materials are added. They will burn when heated and will not hurt people."
Just now he just used his internal energy to push it.
He was amused by her nervousness.
"That's nice to say..."
Isn't it because the dog is afraid of being seen when he is sneaking around?
She originally wanted to tease him, but seeing that he looked very bad, the light on Mu Lianzhi's face dimmed a little bit:
It must be related to the Crown Princess again.
