The reborn sweet girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent prince hugs her and coaxes her!

I slept the whole day, so I naturally didn’t feel sleepy after dinner.

Xu Rongrong sat under the eaves, enjoying the cool breeze, and told Mu Rong in detail what she had said to Wai last night.

"Someone sucked her blood?" Mu Rong frowned.

Xu Rongrong nodded: "Originally I was worried that she was hallucinating due to excessive blood loss, so I confirmed it again and again. But during those days, she was just blindfolded, and her mind was very clear. She could tell the difference between the feeling of sucking blood and bleeding."

Mu Rong knew that Xu Rongrong would do things properly and nothing would be missed.

But the maids in the queen's secret room had been interrogated three times, and no one mentioned this matter.

If what Wai said was true, the blood-sucking man had gone there more than once or twice. And because Wai was hiding in the Queen's Palace, the defenses were tight and it was impossible for ordinary people to enter or leave easily.

The secret in this... made Mu Rong's heart tremble.

When he looked at Xu Rongrong, Xu Rongrong was also looking at him quietly.

There was the same certainty and disbelief in her bright eyes as in his.

It's unbelievable why that person would do such a thing.

The reason why he was so sure was because he was the only person in the imperial palace who could enter and leave the Queen's palace without anyone noticing.

Emperor.

Xu Rongrong reached out and held Mu Rong's hand.

The slightly cool palms were trembling uncontrollably.

She knew that Mu Rong was in a complicated mood at the moment... Since the death of Princess Rongyang and the Marquis, the emperor was Mu Rong's only relative.

He gave Mu Rong enough trust, and handed over the most important four camps in the suburbs of Beijing and the defense of the capital to this nephew.

Even several princes were less powerful than him.

But when he took off the mask, a bloody truth lay before him.

While the emperor was working diligently and loving his people, he was also sucking the blood of the medicine man.

No one dared to associate such an emperor with the Emperor Ming whom the people admired.

An autumn leaf fell between them.

The tree wants to be calm and the wind does not stop.

Xu Rongrong raised her head: "It is rumored that the blood of medicine men is a tonic that can prolong life, or even make people live to be a hundred years old..."

She added, "Your Majesty must have believed this rumor, which is why he did something so against human nature."

Mu Rong hesitated for a moment: "Your Majesty will not be easily moved by a few words. Moreover, no one cares more about other people's opinions than him. If you want him to believe this kind of thing, you have to practice it himself."

Xu Rongrong understood what Mu Rong meant: "You mean that before Wai, Your Majesty should have sucked the blood of the medicine man and witnessed the effect of the medicine?"

Mu Rong nodded.

He knows the current emperor.

Unless he had verified it himself, he would never dare to do such a thing just because it was recorded in a book and go against the world's condemnation.

But when was that?

Xu Rongrong didn't understand the emperor. She looked at Mu Rong with a gloomy face, but she could do nothing.

The tired look on Mu Rong's face made Xu Rongrong feel a little distressed.

She looked up at the starry sky and said, "It's getting late. I'd better go to bed early."

"Okay." Mu Rong nodded.

He did not let go of Xu Rongrong's hand, and led her to the inner room.

Another gust of wind blew, and another fallen leaf was blown down, falling under the eaves side by side with the previous fallen leaf.

Xu Rongrong's eyes met and she suddenly thought of something.

She stopped and looked at Mu Rong: "When did Wu Tianchi suddenly become so powerful?"

Wu Tianchi is the deposed second prince. He once competed with the deposed crown prince in the court.
