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

"what!"

Xu Youzhi's foot suddenly slipped and she was about to fall backwards.

Seeing this, Li Linger raised her jade hands and gently embraced Xu Youzhi's slender waist, then with a little force, she carried Xu Youzhi back to her legs.

"Ling'er, don't do anything stupid. I'm your sister-in-law."

When Xu Youzhi saw that she was being hugged, she didn't know what to think, she pushed away with her hands and blurted out.

Hearing this, Li Linger burst out laughing and asked in confusion,

"Youzhi, what's wrong with you today? You look weird."

Xu Youzhi was also confused as to what was going on with her. She quickly got out of Li Linger's arms, sat aside, and said with forced calmness,

"I am now half your elder. You are not allowed to be rude to your elders."

Hearing this, Li Ling'er laughed so hard that she was shaking with laughter and was out of breath.

After a long while, he looked at Xu Youzhi again, his eyes full of desire.

"I changed my mind, Youzhi, are you willing to help me?"

Xu Youzhi was stunned for a long time, and suddenly her heart skipped a beat. She hurriedly shook her head and said,

"No, no, no, what are you talking about?"

Seeing Xu Youzhi's reaction, Li Ling'er quickly grabbed her fair little hand and pretended to be wronged.

"Although Yuwei is also very good, but now that it's you, I, I naturally trust you more."

Xu Youzhi stood up from her chair in a flash, her tone slightly angry.

"No! This is impossible!"

Li Ling'er was shocked by Xu Youzhi's reaction. She didn't expect that Xu Youzhi, who was usually like a little lamb, would get so angry.

He hurriedly pulled the belt around Xu Youzhi's waist from behind and said flatteringly,

"Don't be angry, you know I'm always outspoken, just pretend I never said anything, okay?"

However, Xu Youzhi regretted the moment she said this, and was secretly annoyed at herself for losing her composure so frequently today, completely losing her usual sophistication and calmness.

After hesitating for a moment, he turned back to his seat and explained softly,

"Ling'er, actually that's not what I meant, it's just..."

"It's okay. I understand."

Li Linger smiled nonchalantly and interrupted Xu Youzhi.

"In fact, these past few days, I also feel that this idea that I came up with on the spur of the moment is a little unreliable."

Li Ling'er herself didn't know what she was thinking, and she just stuck out her tongue at Xu Youzhi as if nothing had happened.

"This kind of thing is not fair to you. I only thought about myself and didn't consider you."

Xu Youzhi looked at the disappointment in Li Ling'er's eyes and didn't know how to comfort her. She changed the subject and said jokingly,

"You don't like your brother anymore? Are you not going to give her a son?"

Hearing this, Li Linger's eyes flashed with complexity, and she said with great force,

"Who said I like him? I just, just, just want to use him."

Xu Youzhi looked at Li Ling'er's reckless expression, gently held her hand, and said earnestly,

"I originally thought your idea was a bit absurd, but now that you have come to terms with it, that's great."

After hearing Xu Youzhi's words, Li Linger suddenly felt like something was missing in her heart.

She has always regarded this matter as a bond between her and Li Mu.

With everything done for the Prince of Yan's Mansion, she never admitted that she had any romantic feelings for Li Mu.

But Xu Youzhi's reaction just now woke her up in an instant.

Li Ling'er forced herself to smile and gently squeezed Xu Youzhi's hand.

"My father doesn't care, but I am so persistent. It really brings shame to our Yanwang Mansion."

As he spoke, the smile on his face gradually became firmer.

"Father always considers the people of Xingchao in everything he does. As the princess of Prince Yan's Mansion, I should do the same."

Xu Youzhi frowned and looked at Li Linger, and said hurriedly,

"Ling'er, that's not what I meant!"

"Okay, I understand. You and I grew up together, and I think it would be great if your child could inherit the throne of King Yan in the future."

When Li Ling'er said this, her eyes suddenly lit up. She held Xu Youzhi's hand to her chest and said in surprise,

"Yu Wei can't be the Crown Prince's consort, but you can. I'll just ask that pervert to make you his legal wife, so that it's legitimate."

"I didn't, that's not what I meant, Ling'er, listen to me."

Seeing that Li Ling'er's words were getting more and more outrageous, Xu Youzhi hurriedly explained.

Li Ling'er seemed to suddenly remember something and exclaimed,

"Oh no, Xin! Lu Jianjia!"

Before he finished speaking, he rushed to the door, saying as he ran,

"Youzhi, eat well. Leave this matter to me. I may be able to stop the letter."

Seeing Li Ling'er running away in such a hurry, Xu Youzhi seemed to want to say something but stopped herself, waiting until the sound of Li Ling'er's footsteps gradually disappeared.

Then he sighed deeply, muttering,

"Thank you, thank you all for being so nice to me."

There was a biting cold wind in the courtyard.

Li Ling'er stood alone beside the pavilion in the lake, the moonlight shining on her chubby face.

A crystal teardrop slid across her cheek, followed by a second and a third.

Tears are like pearls that have broken off the string, and I can't stop them.

Li Linger kept smearing her face with her sleeves, and said to herself in a calm and composed manner,

"What's wrong with me? What's wrong?"

. . . .

Village.

Li Mu leaned against the bathtub with a look of enjoyment, holding the water bottle in his hand and looking at it repeatedly.

“So handsome!”

Xiao Zhao stood beside the bathtub, her pretty face flushed, her hands on Li Mu's shoulders, massaging him gently.

"Miss San has really put a lot of thought into this mace."

Li Mu nodded and said with a smile,

"This girl is really thoughtful. What should I prepare as a return gift?"

After thinking for a long time, Li Mu couldn't think of what the Princess of the Prince of Yan might lack, so he had to keep it in mind for the time being and think about it later.

Li Mu exerted a little force with his wrist and threw Zhishui to the table in the distance. He saw the iron mace fell into the wooden box on the table without any error. Then there was a snap and the wooden box closed.

However, before Li Mu could feel proud, he heard a creaking sound, and the table under the wooden box was suddenly covered with spider-web-like patterns and broke into pieces in an instant.

The corner of Li Mu's mouth twitched, and he coughed twice, then called back Xiao Zhao, who had a look of astonishment on her face.

Then he picked up the secret book "Kang Long You Hui" beside him and began to read it with great interest.

What is recorded above is not only a set of techniques for using the mace, but also a method of controlling force.

Just as the name of this mace technique is, it is easy to break if it is too hard. Even if the power is great, if it is not used well, there will be regrets.

For a moment, Li Mu felt that this method was more and more exquisite, and soon he became fascinated by it.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Mu's eyes lit up and he looked forward, his lips slightly raised, the excitement on his face difficult to conceal.

He immediately raised his hand and gently stroked the water surface. When his fingertips touched the water surface, splashes of water appeared, like sharp swords, shooting towards the potted plants under the distant window.

Just when the sharp sword formed by water droplets was about to cut off the branches of the plant in the pot, the sword suddenly changed its shape.

Like a small snake, it wrapped around the trunk of the plant and then merged into the soil.

"It's done!"

Li Mu stood up from the bathtub excitedly and exclaimed.
