The imperial concubine is nine and a half years old, and she is willing to overturn the table and re

"Cough cough cough cough cough cough..."

Situ Mo stood under the tree, bent over and coughing.

Xie Yuantang was hanging upside down, with his arms hanging down, and he patted his shoulders with his little hands: "Third brother, are you okay?"

It would have been fine if she didn't pat, but after she did, Situ Mo coughed even harder!

"Ahem... I'm fine, you... don't move, be careful not to fall... ahem..."

Xie Yuantang hung his calves on the branches and said with a smile: "I'm fine, look, I can still swing!"

As she spoke, she swayed, her hair and arms hanging down, like that...

Situ Mo took a breath and closed his eyes, saying, "You can swing, but I can't, Fifth Sister-in-law. I have a bad heart and can't stand you scaring me like this."

Xie Yuantang blinked and said obediently: "Oh, then I'll come down right away."

Situ Mo hurriedly took a step forward and stretched out his hands: "I'll catch you..."

Before he could finish his words, he saw Xie Yuantang climb back up the branch with a sit-up, and said without even turning his head: "No, no, I have experience in climbing trees!"

"..."

Situ Mo watched Xie Yuantang as nimble as a little kid, using all four legs to grab the branches and climb up to the trunk, then holding on to the trunk and climbing down.

At first, Situ Mo was worried that she would run out of strength or slip down, but he soon found that his worries were unnecessary!

When Xie Yuantang climbed the tree, he seemed to have returned to the animal world, with his flexible body and coordinated hands and feet. The only difference was that he lacked a tail.

Xie Yuantang landed and stood firm, looking at Situ Mo's relieved expression, and said with a smile: "I told you I'm very experienced."

Situ Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Just when he was about to say something, he took a breath of cold air, started coughing again, and even staggered two steps.

Xie Yuantang was startled and hurriedly ran two steps to support him: "Third brother, are you okay?"

"Ahem... I just feel a little dizzy."

Situ Mo said weakly: "I just didn't expect that the fifth brother's wife is so agile."

Xie Yuantang supported him as he walked into the house, saying as he walked: "I didn't expect that Third Brother, you are so weak..."

Situ Mo: “…”

He couldn't help but say: "I'm just weak, not empty."

A difference of one word can mean a lifetime of dignity!

Xie Yuantang tilted his head and asked in confusion: "Isn't it the same? And I think you, Third Brother, are just a little weak, not that weak. If a person is weak and frail, then that would be terrible!"

Situ Mo: "...Let's change the subject."

Xie Yuantang helped him into the house and looked around, but there was no eunuch serving him.

Xie Yuantang had no choice but to pour him some water himself: "Third brother, where are the palace maids and eunuchs here?"

The last time she came here, she felt that it was too quiet here, and there were indeed not many people.

"I don't need so many people to serve me. Besides, it's getting late now, so let them rest."

Situ Mo drank a sip of hot tea to calm down, smiled slightly and said: "Okay, let's not talk about me, let's talk about you, why are they chasing you, what trouble did you get into tonight?"

"Eh?"

Xie Yuantang was startled and sat up quickly. His eyelashes flickered twice and he shook his head: "You didn't chase me, and you didn't cause any trouble. I didn't do anything~"

Situ Mo raised his eyebrows, paused for a moment, put the cup down gently, lowered his eyes, and sighed, "If you don't want to say it, forget it."

Xie Yuantang was slightly stunned.

Situ Mo let out a bitter smile and said helplessly, "I know you don't believe me, it doesn't matter."

Xie Yuantang smiled awkwardly: "No, why wouldn't I believe you, Third Brother? This must be a misunderstanding."

Situ Mo raised his hand to stop her from talking, and said in a low voice: "You just didn't show it."

He looked up at the little girl sitting opposite him with a somewhat lonely look in his eyes: "Maybe you haven't realized it yourself, Fifth Sister-in-law, but you are willing to spend more time with people you trust, such as Third Sister. Because you trust Third Sister, you also trust Sixth Brother a little bit."

"But you're only polite to people you don't trust, like me."

Situ Mo pulled the corner of his mouth: "But Fifth Sister-in-law, are you a polite person?"

Xie Yuantang: “…” Why does this sound wrong?

She blinked her big eyes sincerely: "Yes, I am!"

Situ Mo smiled and said, "Do you know what people say about you in private?"

Xie Yuantang shook his head.

Situ Mo coughed lightly and said with a smile: "Some people say that if Xie Yuantang knew how to be polite, all the dogs in the capital would be able to kneel down and salute."

Xie Yuantang: “…” That’s too much!

Her face turned serious, and she stood up and said, "I can't talk any more. I'm leaving."

Situ Mo bent his fingers and tapped the table lightly: "Get out now, do you want to be caught?"

Xie Yuantang paused, pouted, and sat back down.

Situ Mo looked at her and sighed, "I just find it very strange. I have never had any conflicts with you like Third Sister and the others, and I have even helped you several times. Why are you so defensive against me?"

"Are you suspecting that I was the one who secretly gave Yuan Jia the poison and took the opportunity to harm Fifth Brother?"

He spoke frankly, and Xie Yuantang did not deny it anymore. Instead, he looked straight at him: "Is that you?"

Situ Mo supported his chin with one hand, leaned on the armrest of the chair, with a faint smile on his face, and said calmly: "I said it's not true, can you trust me?"

Xie Yuantang pursed his lips slightly, his eyes fell on him, looking at him with a bit of scrutiny.

Situ Mo just smiled faintly and let her look at him.

He sat there, his posture was not quite upright, with a bit of laziness and complacency, and a faint chill of frost and snow on his body. He was more indifferent and aloof than any other person Xie Yuantang had ever seen.

Situ Ran asks for the position of crown prince, Situ Xu asks for protection for his family, Yan Guanqing asks for justice, Situ Yan asks for growth, and Lian Wu Chen also asks for something.

But looking at Situ Mo, Xie Yuantang could not see any desire in him. He seemed to be integrated into the world, yet far away from it.

Xie Yuantang nodded slowly: "I believe it."

At least for now, she had no reason to doubt this person anymore.

Situ Mo seemed to see her hesitation, and he curled his lips and said, "But you still have doubts."

Xie Yuantang was slightly stunned.

This person is so sharp!

She thought to herself that she had not shown anything unusual in front of others, let alone openly distancing herself from him, but he had noticed her guard and now easily saw her hesitation.

This person...

Xie Yuantang said in a muffled voice: "Third brother, tell me the truth, all the IQ of your Situ family is added to you, right?"

This level of sensitivity is simply better than the entire royal family!

"Ha ha……"

Situ Mo was amused and chuckled. He spread his hands and said, "I just don't want you to misunderstand me, so I want to talk to you openly. If you have any questions, just tell me and I'll try my best to explain."

With this attitude, Xie Yuantang felt that he was too suspicious of him.

She touched her nose and said shyly: "Then let me ask you? Why are you so good at martial arts?"

Situ Mo's eyes flickered slightly, the corners of his lips curled slightly, and he said lightly: "Fifth brother's martial arts are not inferior to mine."

Xie Yuantang suddenly froze.
