Quickly wear the host, don't panic, the person hasn't run far yet

"Then tonight, you all have to listen to me~"

"Yes, I'll leave it to the master."

Mu Huixue watched the two of them flirting with each other as if they were alone. This scene hurt her eyes. On what basis could she be happy while everything she had was ruined by her...Mu Huixue clenched the dagger in her hand and rushed towards Mu Wanxi.

Before he could get close, a cold dagger was pressed against his neck.

Murderous intent surged on Luochen's face, no longer as gentle and calm as before. He exerted a little force on his wrist, and a blood mark instantly appeared on his neck.

Mu Huixue didn't dare to move and could only stare at Mu Wanxi, but she saw that Mu Wanxi just took a sip of tea nonchalantly, glanced at Mu Huixue, and let out a light sigh.

"You're pretty cruel. Isn't he your favorite?"

Mu Huixue's expression collapsed for a moment, but she still glared at Mu Wanxi with wide eyes as if she refused to admit defeat.

"Why is it that you have been able to get what you want so easily since you were a child, while I have tried so hard but got nothing in the end? You are just a poor creature who has no mother to love you and can only rely on my mother's love and care. Why is it that..."

Before Mu Huixue could finish her words, Luo Chen kicked her in the leg, making her kneel in front of Mu Wanxi.

"Just because she is Mu Wanxi, she is born nobler than you."

Mu Huixue, who was kneeling on the ground, smiled strangely after hearing this, and suddenly raised her head and said to Luochen.

"You should thank me. Would you have been able to climb into her bed without me?"

I saw Luochen’s face was tense and his brows were furrowed.

Mu Huixue suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha... I knew it would fail that night. Otherwise, how could such a proud person like Mu Wanxi be willing to marry a secret guard? Do you think she is willing? Do you think she really likes you? Don't be naive. When she gets tired of playing with you, she will find an excuse to kick you away. By then, you may not even have a complete corpse, hahaha..."

Mu Wanxi frowned unhappily and poured all the hot tea in her hand directly on her face. She was just thinking about how to make her sober up again.

"I'd love to." Luo Chen's cold voice sounded simultaneously.

Mu Huixue's laughter stopped abruptly, and she looked up at Luochen in disbelief.

"As long as she likes it, I don't care what happens to her."

Mu Wanxi raised the corners of her lips, and the anger that had just risen up in an instant also disappeared in an instant.

There's no need to bother with this crazy woman any more.

Mu Wanxi directly ordered people to tie up Mu Huixue and hang her on a tree outside, and asked them to send her to the Dali Temple the next morning and say that the Fourth Princess broke into the Princess's Mansion at night with the intention of committing a crime but was captured by them.

After the guards dragged Mu Huixue away, Mu Wanxi pulled her in front of her, put her hand into Luochen's clothes, and caressed his sensitive parts.

"Well, it doesn't matter what?"

Luo Chen's cheeks flushed red and his body trembled slightly, but he still nodded obediently.

"Master, you can do whatever you want to me, and I will never resist."

The voice was hoarse and the eyes darkened.

A wicked smile appeared on Mu Wanxi's lips.

"This is what you said, don't regret it."

··· ···

The fourth princess went mad in the middle of the night and hacked Master Chu to death with a knife. She then went to the eldest princess's residence and attempted to commit murder but failed, so she was detained by the Dali Temple. The news soon spread throughout the capital.

Prime Minister Chu was heartbroken and took leave to prepare for his son's funeral. He had not attended court for some time.

All the officials in the court felt sorry for Prime Minister Chu who lost his beloved son at such an old age, and they all requested the emperor not to be partial, to severely punish the fourth princess, to give justice to the Chu family, and to uphold the law.

Emperor Yongjin then issued an edict to remove the fourth princess from the Jade Butterfly and execute her three days later.

-----

Under the crabapple tree, Mu Wanxi was taking a nap on Luo Chen on the chaise longue.

Luo Chen looked at her with gentle and doting eyes, as if he couldn't look at her enough. He patted her back with one hand and gently waved a palm-leaf fan with the other hand.

This was the scene that Mu Jingyun saw when he came in.

Just as he was wondering if he should come at another time, he heard a voice: "Since you're here, why don't you have a cup of tea before you leave?"

When he looked up, he saw Mu Wanxi looking at him with a smile on her face.

Mu Jingyun walked over and sat down on the other side of the table.

Luochen put down the fan in his hand and began to make tea skillfully. During the whole process, Mu Wanxi did not get up from him, and Luochen seemed to be used to it and was not affected at all.

"Brother Chen's tea-making skills are unique. You can't taste it anywhere else. You are in for a treat today."

Luo Chen was a little shy and her cheeks blushed. She pushed the teacup in front of Mu Jingyun.

"Your Highness Prince Su, please enjoy."

Mu Jingyun picked up the teacup and took a sip. It was fragrant at first and sweet in the aftertaste.

“It’s really a good craft.”

Mu Jingyun couldn't help but exclaim in praise.

Mu Wanxi raised her head somewhat proudly.

"That's natural."

Mu Jingyun couldn't help but laugh, as if she was the one being praised.

"Brother, what is the matter with you coming here today?"

"It's nothing serious. I was just a little worried when I heard about the attack on you, so I wanted to come and see if you were okay."

Mu Jingyun lowered his head and took another sip of the tea in the cup, his voice sounding a little lonely.

"My brother cared too little about you before."

He always thought she was living well with Concubine Li.

In the past, because he didn't want to be involved with that position, he deliberately avoided the extremely favored Mu Wanxi.

I have learned a lot of things recently, and I suddenly feel sorry for her. She has endured so much alone at such a young age. I feel a little guilty for no reason. If he could have cared more about her at that time...

"Brother, you are wrong. Le An is doing very well now. He has no missing limbs, can run and jump, and can eat and drink."

Mu Wanxi narrowed her eyes, raised the corners of her mouth, and revealed a bright smile.

It seemed as if she saw his self-blame.

Mu Wanxi changed the subject and asked, "I heard that the evidence that my brother used to overthrow Prince Ning was provided to you by Prime Minister Chu?"

Mu Jingyun was stunned by the sudden question, but he answered quickly.

"Exactly. I guess he is returning the favor."

"But what's the problem?"

"Brother, have you ever thought about why Prime Minister Chu has such complete evidence?"

Mu Jingyun frowned slightly and thought for a moment.

"You mean, the two of them conspired together."

"There is actually no deep hatred between Prince Ning and me. In comparison, the ones who have a deeper grudge against me are Mu Huixue and Chu Weifan. I broke off the engagement in public and slapped the Chu family in the face. I'm sure the Prime Minister will still have some complaints."

Mu Jingyun frowned.

"Yes, the cancellation of the engagement did not have any impact on King Ning. He would not have taken action against you."

"His purpose is to frame you, as for attacking me."
