Born to be a star? The abstinent prince dotes on her

Chapter 342 She is just a substitute

Shen Yindi followed her gaze and saw a familiar figure, she couldn't help but laugh.

Si Qi had already trotted over.

"Brother Mu!" She shouted in surprise when she was still two or three meters away.

Mu Ningyuan was still wearing his work clothes at this time. When he saw Si Qi, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.

"Why did Qi'er enter the palace?"

"Let's go into the palace and have some fun. A Yao returns to the palace today, and she will be married to the Kingdom of Nanyue in three days. I don't know how long it will take for us to see each other again, so A Di and I came to the palace to accompany her for a few days." Si Qi made his purpose of visit clear.

Mu Ningyuan understood, he had also heard that the emperor wanted to grant the marriage.

"Brother Mu, have you been very busy these days? I hardly see you! You didn't even come to the dinner last night!" Si Qi quickly changed the subject.

She was more concerned about her elder brother Mu. After all, she hadn't seen him for several days since she returned to the imperial capital.

"Yes, I have a lot of things to do. I am very busy."

"Qi'er, you haven't seen me for a few days. Do you miss me?" The usually taciturn Chief Justice of the Dali Temple now became a little more proactive.

"Of course I do! You have to finish your work quickly so you can play with me." Si Qi tugged at his sleeve, blinking her beautiful eyes, which were sparkling. Her voice was also clear and pleasant.

Mu Ningyuan couldn't help but ruffle her hair, with a look of special fondness for her in his eyes: "I'll try my best."

"Brother Mu, is this the uniform for work?" Si Qi asked curiously again.

He walked around him, looking him up and down, touching his chin with one hand, looking like he was admiring him.

"Yes, Qi'er, what do you think?" Lord Mu opened his arms for her to see.

The subordinates standing by were dumbfounded to see their leader being so proactive.

Could this stunning girl be the one their master loves?

"Well, very handsome and dignified! Very good!" Si Qi was a little at a loss for words, but it was very good anyway.

The Dali Temple Minister was in a very good mood after being praised, and his expression unconsciously became less serious.

At this time, Shen Yindi, Chu Yun and others came over.

"Lord Mu, are you still investigating here today? Are there any useful clues?" Shen Yindi came over and asked with concern.

At that time, the Emperor of Chu ordered him to thoroughly investigate the incident of Concubine De being poisoned by the Gu, and she was also at the scene.

"The people who have taken over Concubine De's bedroom have been replaced, and the original palace servants have been detained. They all said they didn't know, and the case is still under investigation and interrogation." Mu Ningyuan told Shen Yindi truthfully.

Anyway, they are all family now, so he is not afraid to reveal it.

"Hey, Adi, is Brother Mu going to investigate the poison? Would it be helpful for him to take Xiaoguai out?" Si Qi secretly hoped that Mu Ningyuan could find out the truth quickly and not be so busy and tired.

"It stands to reason that it is possible. But since the other party dares to do this, they must have their own foolproof plan."

"Just give it a try, it won't go wrong!"

"Okay, I'll take you to the Dali Temple dungeon to try it out later."

"Brother Mu, can you take me with you? I mean after A Yao gets married." Si Qi's eyes were bright and expectant.

"Yes, I would welcome your help in investigating the case."

"Okay, it's settled!" Si Qi immediately agreed happily.

"Okay." Mu Ningyuan's lips curled up slightly.

"Let's go, let's go in with Adi and the others to see Concubine De first."

"Brother Mu, are you busy now?" Si Qi asked him.

"Not yet. Let's go and take a look together." It was a rare occasion for them to meet in the palace, and Mu Ningyuan didn't want to separate so soon.

"You guys patrol around first. If there's nothing unusual, go back to the Dali Temple first. I'll be back later." Mu Ningyuan ordered.

"I obey my orders."

After that, Si Qi immediately pulled him in. She was a person from the underworld, and she didn't have any etiquette or care about trivial matters.

Mu Ningyuan had long been accustomed to it and did not remind her that this was in the palace and she should be careful about her words and actions.

Anyway, as long as she is happy, it's fine. I dote on her very much.

Defei is feeling much better today after taking Shen Yindi's medicine.

She was also very happy to see them all coming over.

The news that Chu Yao was going to marry in Nanyue had spread throughout the harem. Everyone had received the news.

After Chu Xin finished his homework, he stayed with his mother and was very filial.

"Big sister, I heard from the third sister-in-law that you personally sewed this purse for me. Thank you, big sister!" Chu Xin said solemnly, with a childish tone.

Chu Yun smiled and said, "You don't have to be polite, Eighth Royal Brother. It's just a small favor. As long as I can do my part to make you well, I will be very happy."

Chu Xin nodded. He really enjoyed being with them.

Concubine De simply gave Chu Yun and Chu Yao a few instructions and didn't say much.

Everyone has been in the palace for so long, so many things don’t need to be said too directly; everyone knows them.

But Si Qi didn't understand. After listening to a few words, she pulled Mu Ningyuan out.

At the same time, the East Palace.

The prince's personal eunuch came back to report that Shen Yindi and others had entered the palace.

When Chu Heng heard the name, a stunningly beautiful face immediately flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help but feel a little distracted.

What you don’t get is always the best.

Substitutes can never compare to the real people.

He paced back and forth in the hall for a while, unable to suppress the restlessness in his heart.

Chu Heng walked out immediately.

The eunuch quickly followed: "Prince, where are you going?"

"I want to take a walk in the harem. Don't follow me." In order not to ruin his plans, Chu Heng warned in a low voice.

The eunuch and the steward looked at each other and communicated silently.

At this time, the steward said, "Your Highness, are you not going to see Empress Xue Yi today? She should be waiting for you."

Chu Heng didn't even stop, he waved his hand: "Not going today!"

After saying this, he walked out without looking back. His steps were so big that I would have thought he was running away!

The young eunuch looked at the steward with an embarrassed look on his face.

"What are you looking at? Hurry up and catch up! We must not let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince see that person!" the steward warned coldly.

"The slave knows."

The young eunuch hurriedly chased after him.

The chief eunuch immediately called over another eunuch and asked him to tell the queen a message. The eunuch went immediately.

Xue Yi lived in another courtyard of the East Palace.

She also placed a lot of spies on Chu Heng's side.

When she learned that Chu Heng was going to see Shen Yindi, a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes.

She knew she was just a substitute and she had her own mission.

But during this period, she was no longer content with what she had, she wanted more.

Shen Yindi... She kept repeating this name. After a while, a strange smile appeared on her lips.

A pair of deep blue pupils, set off by her weird expression, seemed somewhat seductive.

She was going to see which woman's replacement she was?

If the original is destroyed, can she replace it?
