Marry my elder sister? Fine! I'll give you the letter of annulment and marry someone else.

"Mu Yuanzhi? Why did he come to see me?!"

Song Zhizhen was really overwhelmed, as she still had to recite poems with Mu Nanqi while going on a boat trip.

Xiao Tao said, "I don't know either. Anyway, you should hurry back. The master lied and said you were asleep and sent the servants to wake you up. Now it's been so long, I'm afraid the master can't stand it anymore."

Song Zhi was speechless and looked up at Mu Nanqi.

Mu Nanqi said sourly: "You are good at attracting peach blossoms for yourself."

Song Zhi is innocent. As God knows, she has never provoked Mu Yuanzhi.

On the contrary, it was Mu Nanqi, the flower that Princess Tuoba was very hostile to her.

Seeing that Song Zhi was unhappy, Mu Nanqi rubbed her head and said, "Go, I will always be with you in the dark."

Song Zhi had no choice but to accept his fate and return to the Song Mansion with Xiao Tao.

The moment she appeared, Song Yang felt as if he had been pardoned. His entire face was radiant as if he had regained his vitality. He excitedly held her hand and pretended to be angry, "Why are you so slow to clean up? You've been so slow and made His Royal Highness wait for so long."

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked out with a fake smile.

Song Zhi walked over and bowed, "Your Highness, please forgive me for being late. I wonder what brings you here?"

Mu Yuanzhi seemed oblivious to the impatience in her eyes and said gently, "There's a particularly delicious dish at the banquet tonight, and I couldn't help but think of you. Seeing the beautiful moonlight, I wanted to bring it to you to eat."

He said with some regret, "But I'm afraid it's already cold and has lost its color and fragrance. I'll bring it to you next time."

Song Zhi said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I am unworthy of your kindness."

Mu Yuanzhi listened to the noise outside and said, "It's still early, Zhier, are you willing to go out for a walk with me?"

Song Zhi really wanted to say that she didn't want to, but she caught a glimpse of Song Yang outside the door, winking at her to go.

She asked with a confused look in her eyes. Song Yang pointed outside the door and mouthed the three words "Imperial Guards".

It seems that the Dog Emperor is not confident about the loyalty of the Song family, and is testing them again under the name of Mu Yuanzhi.

In order not to alert the enemy, she had to behave more submissively for now.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince has invited me. I dare not refuse. Your Highness, please."

Mu Yuanzhi sighed, "I dare not disobey you, I forced you."

Song Zhi was bored, but he knew that he had to just make do. He knew that he should just leave the Song Mansion and go back to the palace to have some rest.

She was screaming in her heart, but Mu Yuanzhi suddenly changed the subject and said seriously, "But as long as I can get what I want, it doesn't matter if I force it."

His gaze was dark and deep, and there seemed to be a fire burning in his gentle eyes.

Song Zhi was startled by the burning and was very confused about what this person was thinking.

Mu Yuanzhi quickly put away that expression, as if what Song Zhi had just seen was an illusion. He smiled softly, "Zhi'er, please."

Song Zhi followed Mu Yuanzhi out with a heavy heart. They went to a poetry reading and took a boat trip on the lake.

From beginning to end, he always appeared to be a modest gentleman.

Even though Song Zhi was looking around absent-mindedly, he didn't mind at all.

Finally, he took out a lantern from somewhere and handed it to Song Zhi, "How about making a wish?"

The moment the lantern was taken out, Song Zhi felt that the surroundings seemed to have become three degrees colder.

Mu Yuanzhi was also puzzled, "Why did it suddenly become cold? Is the weather going to change?"

Song Zhi smiled awkwardly and waved his hands to decline, "No, no, I'm allergic to lanterns, I can't release them."

This was probably the first time Mu Yuanzhi heard the excuse of being allergic to lanterns, and he stood there in a daze for a long time.

However, he reacted quickly and put the lantern into the water without any displeasure. "Since you can't release it, I will release it myself. I hope I can get what I want."

As expected, the sudden drop in temperature returned to normal.

Mu Yuanzhi was very puzzled, "Is there something strange about this river?"

Song Zhi was embarrassed. What could be strange about the river? It was the people who were strange.

After the lanterns were released, people on the street began to disperse one after another.

Mu Yuanzhi suddenly looked at her intently, "Zhi'er, do you really hate me that much?"

Song Zhi was confused by this question, but he still said honestly: "Your Highness, you are joking. We don't have much in common, so there is no reason for us to dislike each other."

At most, I just find it a bit annoying.

Mu Yuanzhi's expression relaxed. "That's good. Since you don't dislike me, I hope Zhier will give me a chance and treat me as a normal man seeking a partner."

There seems to be no connection between the two, right? Should I give someone a chance just because I don't dislike them? There are plenty of people on the street who I don't dislike.

Song Zhi didn't expect him to say that and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

At this moment, the temperature around him dropped again.

Mu Yuanzhi shuddered and felt that this river was more and more strange.

"Child, do you feel a little cold again?"

Song Zhi answered stubbornly, "It's not cold, I don't feel it at all."

Mu Yuanzhi began to doubt his own feelings. Could it be that he had caught a cold?

He said doubtfully, "That might be my fault."

However, standing by the river always made him feel uncomfortable, so he did not ask for the answer and took Song Zhi back to the street.

At this moment, most of the people on the street had dispersed, and the river breeze was blowing, and he couldn't help sneezing.

He felt relieved immediately, he really had a cold.

Suspecting that he was ill, Mu Yuanzhi did not stay any longer. After sending Song Zhi home, he left in a carriage with the Royal Guards.

Song Zhi only breathed a sigh of relief after he walked away.

She looked around for Mu Nanqi, but he was nowhere to be seen in the night.

When she turned around, she was suddenly bumped into a strong embrace.

"It seems that Sixth Brother is serious about you."

When saying this, there was no emotion in Mu Nanqi's tone, but from his subtle expression one could still tell that he was not very happy.

Song Zhi said: "Princess Tuoba is still serious about you."

Mu Nanqi: "She has already granted the marriage."

Song Zhi: "Yes, it was your sixth brother who granted the marriage."

Seeing that she looked like a sharp-tongued kitten, Mu Nanqi couldn't help but pinch her face, and his mood improved a lot.

"Didn't you say you wanted to go boating with me? Are you still going now? Cang Qiong is back, and Liu Ruoyu is there too."

"Go, go, of course."

Song Zhi immediately pulled Mu Nanqi away. She hadn't seen Liu Ruoyu in the past few days and missed her a lot.

After getting on the carriage, the two soon arrived at the lake.

From a distance, I saw Cang Jing and Liu Ruoyu, both dressed in flashy blue clothes, sitting on a small boat warming wine and making tea.

As soon as they passed by, Cang Qiong shouted, "Hurry up, hurry up, I still need to take my sister to see the Moon in the Heart of the Lake. If we're late and can't see her, won't you be responsible?"

The two were used to Cang Jian's carefree personality, so they sat down without saying much.

After they got in, the boatman stood at the bow and began to row.

A small boat moved slowly under the moonlight. Song Zhi winked at Liu Ruoyu, "You seem to be in a good mood today."

It's really rare that someone agrees to go out and play with Cang Qiong.

Hearing this, Liu Ruoyu glanced at Song Zhi dimly, "Didn't you sell me out for two meals?"
