In danger, he traveled through time to save her, and the black-bellied prince doted on her

Xie Chibei heard Yu Keduo cursing. He lifted Yu Keduo's collar and punched him hard in the face: "Yun Ting, cut off his tongue."

The rain washed away the blood from Yu Keduo's mouth, and the unwarranted curses from his lips slowly disappeared.

"Haha, you'd better kill me." Yu Keduo vaguely felt that he could hold something against Xie Chibei.

He is constantly testing Xie Chibei's bottom line. Why has Xie Chibei, who has killed countless people, not killed him? What is his purpose?

Yun Ting brought a dagger close to Yu Keduo's face. He pried open Yu Keduo's teeth with one hand and pulled out his tongue. The dagger had already touched the tip of his tongue.

"Ding-ling, ding-ling." The wind and rain shook the sword bells hanging under the eaves, making them ring continuously. Yu Keduo's ears moved. His own cries and thunder when he was beaten just now drowned out everything.

Yellow sand poured into his mind; the clear sound of bells stirred his long memories, uncovering earth-shattering secrets in the heavy rain.

The girl who was buried in the yellow sand with him, her sword bell is in the river in the north, hanging in Mu Jingyi's yard?

Yu Keduo's eyes were dark, and the corners of his mouth showed a strange smile. He immediately dodged the dagger and begged for mercy: "I was wrong, I won't say it again."

Why didn't Xie Chibei kill Yu Keduo? Apart from the assassins, only Mu Jinan had entered the palace dungeon over the years.

That day, Mu Jinan went to the palace to pick peaches and fell into the dungeon. Not only did he attract Yang Zhaowei, but he also did something big.

Xie Chibei thought at the time, no one would believe that she fell accidentally.

He went to look for clues after Mu Jinan left, and then he thought:

"How could someone with such good Qinggong fall down just because he was blindfolded? I was holding her hand with my folding fan, and the "Your Highness" she called out when she stopped was not me. She walked all the way, but only left a deviated footprint in front of the cell door. The two of them were exchanging secret signals."

"She wanted to kill me for revenge under the cherry tree. She was lying on the ground drunk on purpose. I told you that people who pretend to be drunk are puppies, but she just pretended to be drunk so I could hold her!!!"

Xie Chibei sent people to guard the cell strictly. No one took Yu Keduo away when he was in Sheng'an City. After Mu Jinan got married, Yu Keduo came out not long after he left Sheng'an.

I wonder if it was Xuyang who was beside her who did it? But Xuyang was in the river.

After Chen Xuan was poisoned that day, they returned to the Mu Mansion from the palace. He asked Mu Jinan, "How many people like this do you have?" Mu Jinan said there was only one.

Xie Chibei did not believe her. He had already mentioned the matter of buying horses to Mu Jinan in Nangong Mansion, and Mu Jinan assigned someone in disguise to buy horses.

He knew that it was the sesame cake waiter with a scar on his face outside Hu Yulou. He did not expose Mu Jinan because he wanted to let her play in Sheng'an City by herself.

Later, a skilled painter named Cha Heng appears in Sheng'an City. Xiao Hechuan and Cheng Yu are lured into a conspiracy by a painting. Only then are they able to successfully amend the laws and the imperial examination system and win Xiao Wan's case.

Xie Chibei still didn't mention Cha Heng to Mu Jinan. She usually got rid of his secret guards and seemed to be in contact with other people. How many people like her were there?

Xie Chibei was worried that she was deceived by someone or that those people were of unknown origin. After learning that Xuyang was her man, he sent people to check the people around her.

But it was discovered that she just went to court every day and seldom interacted with others. The only time was when Mu Jinanshui was injured in prison and went home to recuperate, and Cha Heng entered the Mu Mansion.

Cha Heng's whereabouts were like a ghost. He could use various masks and disguise himself. Sometimes his body was hunched, and sometimes he pretended to be missing an arm or had a lame leg. Even the small house he lived in was frequently changed. He talked about things in secret and there was no useful information.

After Xie Chibei left Sheng'an, all the death squad and elite soldiers went to Quhe. It was the best time for them to take action.

Xie Chibei guessed: "It seems that it was this elusive Cha Heng who brought Yu Keduo out of the dungeon."

Xie Chibei glanced at Yu Keduo, and following Yu Keduo's restrained gaze, he glanced at Jian Ling, then lowered his head and asked Yu Keduo: "Do you know Jian Ling?"

Yu Keduo's flashing eyes gradually calmed down. He lay flat in the rain and wiped the rain off his face with one hand: "Yes, I am her savior."

Xie Chibei has interrogated many criminals. People will tell all kinds of lies when they are trying to survive. He can still tell whether the other party is harboring evil intentions.

Xie Chibei felt that Yu Keduo might not have saved Mu Jinan, but Yu Keduo knew some of Mu Jinan's past.

Xie Chibei guessed some secrets and he tried to make the arrangements as comprehensive as possible.

Yunting helped Yu Keduo to change clothes.

Mu Jingyi had been staring at Jian Ling. He looked at Yu Keduo's back as he left and tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword: "Kill him!"

Xie Chi went up to the eaves, took down the sword bell, and put it into Mu Jingyi's collar: "Listen to what he has to say?"

"Heyuan Murong, how are you these days?"

Mu Jingyi put away the sword bell and said, "Chang Dubing has taken over most of Heyuan's business by relying on his connections in the court. The Murong family has been able to gain a foothold and become the second largest merchant. How could they let their servants run the business?"

"Our people have been investigating. The head of the Murong family has never appeared in Heyuan. At that time, he just used the Murong family to force Chang Dubing to hand over some of the grain."

"I will not hand over mines and many businesses to people of unknown origin."

Xie Chibei had worked with several military generals, and a strategist like Mu Jingyi was rare. If he had only been a civil official, perhaps it would have been Jiang Yanqing. They were young talents who could serve as two prime ministers at the same time.

His loyal cousin died on the way to exile, so Mu Jingyi was left to stay in the frontier where the emperor could not calculate, to guard the people of Dasheng.

Xie Chibei went into the house and changed into a clean jade-green dress, which was the one embroidered for him by Mu Jinan.

Mu Jingyi couldn't help laughing when he saw the ugly peach blossom: "Jin Chong, this flower is too ugly, aren't you afraid that the soldiers in the army will laugh at you?"

Xie Chibei looked up at Mu Jingyi proudly, and touched the peach blossom on his waist with his fingertips: "Your sister embroidered it. Didn't she embroider clothes for you?"

These past few days, either they were trying Chang Dubing and Yu Keduo, or competing with Wang Rui in wits and courage, and everyone was feeling a little depressed.

At this moment, hearing Xie Chibei's happy and proud expression like a child who got a piece of candy, Mu Jingyi's eyebrows that had been twisted into a mountain peak turned into a shallow river, and a smile as bright as the wind and the moon appeared on his face:

"No, you are the one she trusts the most. She treats you closer than anyone else. I envy you."

Xie Chibei wanted to monopolize every inch of Mu Jinan's heart. Mu Jinan said in front of him that she only cared about Nangong Yu, and this sentence was engraved in his heart like a curse.

What made him jealous was not that Nangong Yu could hold her while sleeping, but that made him sad that Mu Jinan was always on guard against him and didn't seem to care about him that much.

He was injured a few days ago and the back of his hand was bleeding a lot. Mu Jinan glanced at him coldly. He wanted to get married earlier, but Mu Jinan always avoided him. He thought Mu Jinan had changed her mind about him after she took command of the troops.

But on the day of separation, she kissed and bit him fiercely again. It took a long time for her to let him kiss her once, and she pushed him away after the kiss. They had to be separated for so many days. She was too good at controlling his heart.
