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

"Master..."

Shanshan was the first to approach Li Mu.

Li Mu frowned, and pushed Lu Xian'er's body to Shanshan, saying calmly,

"Bury her properly..."

Shanshan said softly "Oh".

For a moment, the atmosphere became depressing.

Even the most obtuse Shanshan could see that Li Mu was in a bad mood.

However, Li Mu himself couldn't explain it.

The jade pendant on Lu Xianer's neck made him feel inexplicably sad.

But Li Mu could not forgive her on behalf of the ordinary people she killed.

...

Is she doing this for Ming Lan, or...

Outside the crowd.

Murong Jinxiu stared at the scene infatuatedly.

This might be the first time in her life that her attention was always on another man in the presence of Mu Zhen.

She shook her head vigorously to get rid of the 'crazy' thoughts in her mind.

At this time, Ge Peining came to her side without knowing when, put her hand on her pulse, bit her lip and murmured,

"At least ten years...ah..."

"What?" Murong Jinxiu was lost in thought and only came back to her senses when she heard Ge Peining's voice.

"Ge... Ning'er... what did you say ten years?"

She turned her head away with a guilty conscience and asked casually.

Ge Peining sighed again, glanced secretly at Li Mu, and pulled Murong Jinxiu aside.

"Mr. Rujun, do you know what your husband used to treat you?"

Murong Jinxiu was stunned for a long while.

Recalling the warmth that flowed into her body when Li Mu touched her lower abdomen, her pupils trembled.

"Life span!"

"Yeah." Ge Peining nodded slightly, with a bitter look on her face.

"I don't know where my husband learned this method."

"but……"

"Hey!" Ge Peining stamped her feet in anger, and after struggling for a while, she continued,

"Mr. Rujun, you are my husband's elder... I think my husband cares about you very much."

"Can you, can you persuade him..."

Murong Jinxiu was in a trance for a moment, and subconsciously looked at Li Mu again.

At this time, Li Mu was asking Mu Zhen about the current situation in the capital.

Unconsciously, Murong Jinxiu began to compare the two of them.

"gentlemen!"

"Mr. Rujun?"

"what?"

"If you are embarrassed, just pretend I never said anything."

Ge Peining pursed her lips, knowing that doing so was somewhat embarrassing for her husband.

Murong Jinxiu quickly withdrew her gaze, her eyes so flustered that she didn't know where to look.

"me……"

At this time, Li Mu and Mu Zhen seemed to have a conflict.

"Yu'er and Xiaodie have already gone to the palace with Chuyi!"

"I have to go back home right now!"

Mu Zhen frowned, pressed his palms tightly on the wheelchair armrests, and said in a deep voice,

"According to the report from the prefect of Jing'an, those people from the military strategist are now causing chaos in the outer city."

"With that young woman in your house, nothing will happen..."

Li Mu shook his head, leaving no room for reversal.

"Teacher, I have made up my mind. Please follow me back to the mansion."

Mu Zhen flicked his sleeves, turned his wheelchair around and faced Li Mu.

"In that case, I will go by myself!"

"The sooner we take these people down, the less civilians will be persecuted!"

"Teacher!" Li Mu pressed the back of Mu Zhen's wheelchair and patiently advised,

"If it's just a one-on-one fight, the teacher won't be afraid."

"But Lu Xian'er also said just now that there are dozens of people with the same strength as her. If they attack her in groups, even the teacher will..."

"Enough!" Mu Zhen slapped the armrest, and a palm-sized axe-shaped energy chopped towards Li Mu's face.

"You don't need to teach me how to do things."

Li Mu knew that Mu Zhen would not hurt him, so he did not dodge.

His eyes passed through the women and fell on Murong Jinxiu.

His eyes suddenly lit up.

He rushed to Murong Jinxiu, grabbed her wrist and walked towards Mu Zhen.

"Master's wife, please persuade the teacher!"

"He's old and still wants to go out and fight. If anything goes wrong..."

"Mu, Mu'er!"

For some reason, when Li Mu held her wrist, Murong Jinxiu suddenly felt a little strange.

She subconsciously tried to shake off Li Mu's hand.

However, just as she put her other hand on the back of Li Mu's hand and was about to push him away.

Suddenly I noticed Mu Zhen's eyes.

She actually stopped moving for the first time, and uttered a sound of disbelief that even she herself could hardly believe.

"You, you hurt me."

Li Mu was so frightened by the sound that he broke out in a cold sweat and froze in place.

After realizing what was happening, he retracted his hand as if he had been electrocuted, and quickly apologized.

"Master's Wife, I didn't mean it. I was just worried about Master..."

"Who is your master's wife?"

For some reason, even though Li Mu had called her that before, she felt sweet in her heart.

I felt annoyed when I heard it at this time.

"..." Li Mu did not notice Murong Jinxiu's strangeness. He paused for a moment and quickly changed his words.

"Slip of the tongue, Aunt Jinxiu!"

"Who is your aunt!" Murong Jinxiu snorted coldly and turned her head aside.

"Let me ask you, who is Yu'er?"

???

Li Mu was stunned for a moment, then he realized that he had just said it out of caution in a hurry.

Mu Zhen seemed to have just reacted and looked at Li Mu in surprise.

No, why are you all looking at me?

Li Mu twitched his lips, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Mu Zhen was stunned for a long while, then suddenly slapped the wheelchair armrest and said angrily,

"absurd!"

"You are confused!"

"Mu Daru, it's not what you think!"

Seeing that Mu Zhen had misunderstood, Ge Peining hurried forward and tried to defend Li Mu.

"My husband and... and... are in love with each other, it's not what the great scholar thinks!"

"Nonsense!"

Who knows, it would be better if she didn't say anything.

As soon as he heard this, Mu Zhen almost couldn't catch his breath and pounded his chest hard.

"Stupid and incompetent! Stupid and incompetent!"

"Normally, I don't care how you behave as a teacher, but Madam Ge is Junior Brother Ge's first wife, and she is also Ning's biological mother..."

"You...you are going to anger me to death!"

Li Mu closed his eyes, feeling as if life had lost its hope.

He secretly gathered his internal energy in his hands, intending to put an end to it all, so he knocked Mu Zhen out and took him back.

If a "struggle session" were really held here, he wouldn't be able to withstand it.

However, what no one expected was that the next person to stand up for Li Mu would be Murong Jinxiu.

She put one hand on her waist and pointed at Mu Zhen's nose with the other. Her beautiful eyes were almost rolling up to the sky, and she even had some of the charm of Mrs. Lu when she was angry.

"Xiao Zhenzi, why are you crazy? Didn't you hear that Mu'er and... and that someone... are in love with each other?"

"The girl didn't say anything, why are you so mad!"

Upon seeing this, all the girls looked as if they had seen a ghost.

They all knew that Murong Jinxiu and Madam Lu were cousins.

One is well-educated and well-mannered, the other... has a bit of a bandit streak.

But I didn't expect that the great scholar Ru Jun also had such a "tough" side.

Only Mu Zhen stared at Murong Jinxiu in a trance.

He probably hasn't seen Murong Jinxiu like this for decades.

Thinking back, the last time I saw him was when we first met.

That day he was ostracized by his peers in the Murong family.

It was the little girl who barely reached her waist who stood up for him so arrogantly.

Unexpectedly, when she saw this scene again, the person she was protecting behind her had become a 'bystander'.

"Aunt Jinxiu..." At this time, Li Mu spoke.

However, Murong Jinxiu seemed very dissatisfied with this title and rolled her eyes.

Seeing this, Li Mu immediately changed his words and said with a smile,

"Sister Murong!"

"Sister Murong!"

"Calm down, Master's teachings are reasonable..."

Li Mu always felt that his master looked like he was about to break apart.

At this moment, Zhang Hanrui suddenly shouted loudly, and with a burst of force from his backhand, he knocked Mu Zhen unconscious.

"What time is it! And you still can't tell the priorities!"

Then he stepped forward and grabbed Li Mu's collar, his tone very urgent,

"Xiao Shisan, let me in! Now!"
