I'm shocked! After breaking off the engagement, the emperor's uncle wants to have a fake m

Mu Qingyan clasped her fists towards Prince Ling, "Thank you, Your Highness, otherwise I would be scolded to death by grandpa..."

After he finished speaking, he realized that the person in front of him also looked a little strange. "You, what's wrong with you? Ah——"

Mu Qingyan touched her forehead and protested, "I'm in this state, and you still hit me!"

Prince Ling raised his hand again, and Mu Qingyan subconsciously shrank back, but the hand gently landed on the top of her head and touched it, as if touching a dog's head.

The next moment, she was embraced by someone.

She heard the man sigh, "Don't do this again. Why don't you take your life seriously at all?"

Ugh...

She was already dead, so every day she lived was a blessing.

"It's not that easy for me to die. If you want to investigate Prince Chong's case, it's best to start with Concubine Xian. I always feel that she knows something... Have you ever discussed this with His Majesty?"

"My brother naturally has some suspicions, but he has no evidence."

Empress Xian was a smart person. She would know that her child was switched, right? So there was a reason why she had been so cold to Prince Chong over the years, like a stranger.

After Mu Qingyan used her internal energy to force the poison out of her body, she stuffed a detoxifying pill into Jin's mouth. She was not immune to all poisons, but because her internal energy could protect her body, she was able to transfer the poison from Concubine Xian to herself. However, this method was only applicable to her.

If others do this, they are seeking death.

He asked Yuzhan to go back to the Duke's Mansion to tell Jiuniang and the others that all valuables had been moved to his own courtyard, and he packed up some daily necessities and went directly to the Qin Mansion.

Since she had already greeted Qin Sangbai, she was no exception.

Old Master Qin even invited her to his study to talk.

"Thank you so much, young lady, for taking the trouble to help me... I am so old, and I feel ashamed to have to mobilize so many people..."

Mu Qingyan was very respectful. "Sir, you are the pillar of our Da'an. With you here, those evil spirits dare not act rashly. I moved to the Qin Mansion on my own initiative. I hope you will forgive me for causing trouble..."

Old Master Qin smiled and waved his hands. "There are few people in the Qin Mansion. You and Sang'er get along well. She will be very happy to be able to accompany her. You saved Sang'er's life and allowed her to live like a normal person. In the next hundred years, I will have the face to visit her deceased parents..."

When talking about a hundred years, Mu Qingyan couldn't help feeling a little sad.

After all, everyone has to take that step.

If it was Master Qin...

That Sangbai...

I am truly alone and helpless...

"Sir, you will surely live a long and healthy life, watch Sang Bai get married and have children, and have someone to rely on."

After coming out of the study, Jiu Niang followed, "Miss, everything has been arranged..."

"You will have to work hard during this period. You must stay with Old Master Qin and not make any mistakes. When he goes out, you must send someone to accompany him. The prince will also make arrangements, but it is not convenient for his people to show up, so you must be more vigilant."

"Yes, girl..."

Back in Qin Sangbai's courtyard, she was pacing in front of the courtyard worriedly. Seeing Mu Qingyan, she hurriedly came over and said, "Ayan, tell me the truth. Is there anyone who wants to deal with Grandfather?"

Mu Qingyan knew that she couldn't hide it from her, so she could only tell the truth, "The situation in the court is tense now, and the old gentleman is a vital person to stabilize the situation. He can't make any mistakes, so I discussed with the prince and moved into your house on the pretext of keeping you company, so that I can be taken care of in time if something happens. The Qin Mansion is so big, and there are only you two, grandparents, and there is no guard. If the thieves want to do it, wouldn't it be easy?"

"Then... Is Grandfather in danger..."

Mu Qingyan held her hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, the prince and I have made arrangements. From now on, whether the old man is at home or traveling, there will be people around him to secretly protect him. As for the people in the mansion, you must also be careful not to let anyone take advantage of you, especially the old man's diet."

Qin Sangbai knew the pros and cons of the matter, so he naturally didn't dare to relax, "Okay."

"Don't be too nervous. Jiu Niang and the others will also be watching everyone's every move. Fortunately, there are not many servants in the Qin Mansion, so they can see anyone who wants to do something bad. Well, it's getting late, go and rest first, you still have to go to school during the day."

Mu Qingyan managed to persuade the man into the house.

Coaxed her to sleep.

Fearing that she would not sleep well, Mu Qingyan specially pressed her sleeping acupoints to let her have a good rest. Qin Sangbai's health was not good, so she couldn't be anxious.

"Miss..." Gancao felt a little worried when he saw Mu Qingyan tapping his young lady twice.

"Don't worry, I just pressed her sleeping point. These few days have been uneasy, so you can rest in her room. If anything happens, I'll be able to take care of you in time. I'll watch outside..."

"Aren't you going to take a rest, young lady?"

"You go to sleep first. There aren't many people in the mansion. I have to go and keep watch."

Licorice looked at the sleeping Qin Sangbai and nodded silently.

Mu Qingyan left the courtyard and sat in the pavilion.

Not long after, Xulin appeared. "Why don't you ask your brother for help if you have any problems? Or do you have to handle it all by yourself?"

Mu Qingyan smiled, "Aren't you here? Now that you are here I can go to sleep."

"Kyoto has been in turmoil recently. Grandfather has sent a letter by carrier pigeon, asking disciples with strong martial arts skills to come to the capital. We will protect Old Master Qin. Just do your own thing with peace of mind. Don't forget that you have the entire Xiaoyao Sect and the Gu family behind you."

"Got it, thank you brother..."

Xu Lin lowered his eyebrows, revealing a slight sadness. "Although I encountered danger when I was a baby, I didn't suffer the slightest bit after being taken back by my master. But you, you have no one to protect you since you were a child, and you have experienced all the sufferings in the world. When I think about it carefully, I always feel sorry for you..."

Mu Qingyan shook her head, "Brother, this is not your fault, don't feel guilty. It's not easy for us to be reunited today. We just need to support each other and live peacefully in the future. Don't let the past haunt you."

Xulin looked at Mu Qingyan's calm and composed expression, and he admired her very much in his heart.

If I didn’t have this extraordinary tenacity, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have made it this far.

"So what are your plans for the future? You are still somewhat free now, and the Duke's Mansion doesn't care about you. When you become a princess, it will be difficult for you to go out, right?"

Mu Qingyan did not mention the fake marriage between her and Prince Ling to anyone.

Although, now it seems that Prince Ling doesn't seem to have no sincerity towards her.

Instead, I pay attention to everything...

Sometimes, she couldn't quite figure out her own feelings. To say that she was moved, it didn't seem that she was that moved. To say that she was not moved at all, it wasn't either. In short, she was very conflicted.

However, the arranged marriage was a fact, and she also accepted King Ling's care for her.

Regardless of whether they have true feelings or not, they are all grasshoppers tied to the same rope.

Besides, she now has people she wants to protect.

The most important thing right now is to get rid of King Yong, restore order to the government and bring peace to the people.
