For the next time, just listening to Queen Mother Zheng and Concubine Li chatting and laughing happily, Mu Yunjin and Concubine Qin sat where they were, drinking tea from time to time, without saying a word.

"The sixth prince is here!"

Outside the plum garden, there was a voice of notification.

Everyone followed the prestige, and saw that Chu Li, who was dressed in a moon-white costume today, stepped into the plum garden slowly. Against the background of the plum blossoms in the garden, his whole body seemed to be radiating brilliance, and his face was full of condensation and tears. indifferent.

As soon as Chu Li approached, he ignored Queen Mother Zheng as usual and bowed slightly to Princess Qin, "Grandmother."

Seeing this, Concubine Qin glanced at Queen Mother Zheng, and raised her chin proudly, "Li Er, there is no need to be polite, come and sit down."

After finishing her sentence, Concubine Qin pointed to the empty seat beside Mu Yunjin and spoke.

Chu Li nodded slightly, and walked towards Mu Yunjin.

As soon as Mu Yunjin saw Chu Li, her eyes wandered around, but she didn't even look at Chu Li. Her anger hadn't completely dissipated from what happened yesterday!

Although she almost forgot about those cookies in the morning after eating them, when she suddenly saw Chu Li, her thoughts flooded her mind again.

Especially when Empress Dowager Zheng and others mentioned his promise to Qin Muyue just now, looking at Chu Li now, I always have a complicated feeling in my heart.

After Chu Li sat down, Mrs. Zheng put on a smile on her back. Just as she was about to speak out, she saw that Chu Li had already lowered her eyes to Mu Yunjin beside her, "When did you arrive?"

"It's been almost half an hour." Mu Yunjin said lightly, her eyes drifting a little.

Hearing this, Chu Li nodded slightly, with a faint smile on his face, "I didn't stay in bed today."

On the side, Empress Dowager Zheng, Concubine Li and the others looked at this scene, almost dropping their jaws in shock. Did Chu Li just smile?

And still smiling at Mu Yunjin...

Over the years, they all know that Chu Li is a taciturn, extremely cold and withdrawn person, and they have never seen him smile at anyone or speak so gently to anyone!

Could it be that the sky is really going to change!

Concubine Qin saw the astonishment in the eyes of Empress Dowager Zheng and the others, her face was filled with smiles immediately, "Look, the Ai family thought that letting the two of you perform the marriage contract hastily would make you not used to it! We get along so well now , the Ai family is relieved."

"Some people, don't worry about those irrelevant people anymore." Qin Dowager gritted her teeth, deliberately emphasizing the three words irrelevant.

Seeing Concubine Qin regaining the victory, Empress Dowager Zheng was naturally not to be outdone. After calming down, she looked at Chu Li lovingly, "Li Er, Ai's family heard a few days ago that you promised to take care of Mu Yue when she came back. To fulfill a wish?"

When Chu Li heard this, he responded lightly, "En."

Seeing that Chu Li had confirmed this matter, Concubine Qin's eyes showed a trace of surprise, and Empress Dowager Zheng, Concubine Li and others beside her couldn't hide the joy of their success.

This time, it was Qin Taifei's turn not to be calm, and she immediately said, "Li'er, how could you promise to others so easily? What if that Qin girl comes back and asks you to marry her?"

Mu Yunjin held the teacup in her hand, took a sip of the tea, and completely pulled her thoughts away, as if this matter had nothing to do with her.

In fact, it has nothing to do with her.

She will leave here sooner or later, away from Chu Li, and out of this royal family dispute. What will happen to Chu Li and that Qin Muyue is none of her business.

But at this moment, she wanted to hear Chu Li's answer.

Chu Li leaned on himself, and after hearing Concubine Qin's question, he stroked the rim of the cup with his fingertips, and deep meaning appeared in his eyes, "I won't marry her."

"Really?" Hearing Chu Li's affirmative answer, Concubine Qin was even a little excited, and confirmed it again.

Chu Li nodded, raised his eyebrows slightly, "My prince is newly married, isn't it inappropriate for you to talk about this?"

"Oh, yes, yes, just say what the Ai family said, Li'er still has his own measure." Concubine Qin glared at Queen Mother Zheng, her eyes were full of provocation.

Mu Yunjin's answer to Chu Li was also expected. Before they got married, Chu Li told her that the two of them got married just to get what they needed.

Empress Dowager Zheng was deflated again, with a bit of resentment in her heart, and glanced at Mu Yunjin's unparalleled beauty, and put Chu Li in her heart as a person who lusted after beauty.

"The Ai family still has some things to do, let's go first." The Empress Dowager Zheng couldn't sit still anymore, she sat up, said a word, and was about to leave.

Concubine Li immediately understood, supported Queen Mother Zheng, and Chu Qingqiang stood up leisurely, with a displeased expression on her face, and the three of them left the plum garden together.

As soon as Empress Dowager Zheng left, Concubine Qin immediately took a few breaths of air, and said with a look of disgust, "Once this old witch Zheng comes, I can't even smell the fragrance of flowers in this plum garden, and I'm very depressed."

"Grandmother, you are really amazing. You can run away from Queen Mother Zheng every time." Mu Yunjin smiled slightly and looked at Princess Qin.

Concubine Qin raised her eyebrows proudly, "Naturally, if she hadn't come from a nobler background than me, how could it be her turn to be the empress dowager now."

"Both of you happen to be here today, so let's have lunch at Ai's house before leaving."

...

After staying with Concubine Qin until almost dusk, Mu Yunjin and Chu Li left the plum garden and walked on the way out of the palace.

For a whole day, Mu Yunjin didn't take the initiative to say a word to Chu Li, and now she was walking on her own, with no intention of talking to Chu Li at all.

Chu Li naturally saw that her anger was still there, and observed Mu Yunjin for a long while without making a sound.

The two remained silent all the way into the mansion.

As soon as she stepped into the front hall, Nanny Shen greeted her immediately, holding a locked brocade box in her hand, "Your Highness, Princess, this was sent by Master Huaiyuan of Shuiyun Temple just now, saying that this brocade box is It was found in the secret compartment of Master Kong Shi's room."

Upon hearing that it was Master Kong Shi's relic, Mu Yunjin's eyes were a little curious, and she took the lead in looking at Chu Li, "Open it and have a look."

Chu Li caught Mu Yunjin's line of sight, nodded, and took the brocade box from Nanny Shen, "Let's go back to the room to have a look."

Mu Yunjin hummed, but always felt that the word "return to the room" sounded strange.

Nanny Shen covered her mouth and smiled, without looking at the two of them, she just walked away to do other things on her own.

Back at Liquan Pavilion, Mu Yunjin followed into Chu Li's room. As soon as he entered the room, Chu Li's fingertips flashed with light, and then the originally locked brocade box opened with a snap.

Chu Li reached out to open the brocade box, and after glancing at the contents of the brocade box, his eyebrows frowned, and he reached out to pick up a black thing inside.

Mu Yunjin followed Chu Li's line of sight, and gave a surprised cry, and saw that Chu Li was holding a black remote control switch in his hand, and there were only two buttons on the switch, with on and off written on it.

Seeing this, Mu Yunjin chuckled lightly and crossed her arms, this Master Kong Shi is really interesting, there are modern technologies everywhere around him.

"You know this?" Chu Li caught a glimpse of the expression in Mu Yunjin's eyes, and said quietly.

Mu Yunjin nodded, took the switch from Chu Li's hand, and put it in his hand for a moment, "This, maybe it can cancel the red line and the siren."

"However, it is not very useful. There is also a mysterious technique unique to Master Kong Shi outside, which is difficult to decipher."

After Mu Yunjin finished speaking, she threw the switch on the table casually, and when she was about to look away, she caught a glimpse of the brocade box from the corner of her eye and couldn't help being slightly taken aback.

"Chop it open and have a look." Mu Yunjin was a little excited, and stretched out her hand to grab La Chuli's arm.

Chu Li glanced at his arm held by Mu Yunjin, pursed his lips tightly, hummed, then stretched out his palm, and used his true energy towards the brocade box. In an instant, that exquisite box turned into a pile of powder.

Mu Yunjin sighed in admiration, picked up the powder, and pulled out a cloth note from inside, with a row of handwriting written on it——

Hi, do you want to break that formation? Go to Shuiyun Temple if you have time, I have hidden the cracking method in every corner of Shuiyun Temple!

Mu Yunjin looked at the word hi, which is a unique way of greeting modern people, and couldn't help but feel helpless, but when she turned her eyes and saw that Chu Li beside her was also looking at this cloth note, she was slightly taken aback, and suddenly realized that Are you exposing yourself too much?

So, after thinking about it, Mu Yunjin frowned, and handed the cloth strip in front of Chu Li, "What is written on it? I can't read the words..."

Chu Li glanced at Mu Yunjin, smiled suddenly, and pulled the cloth strip from her hand, "It says that the cracking method is in every corner of Shuiyun Temple."

Mu Yunjin nodded half-understood, and then sneered, "What the hell is that master Kong Shi, a formation-breaking method is so complicated."

"Then what do you want?" Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin and said warmly.

"Oh, I don't believe that his formation technique is really wonderful in the world. Since I can break his infrared rays, it means that his profound technique is not perfect, and there must be loopholes." Mu Yunjin was particularly arrogant He opened his mouth and raised his chin.

When Chu Li heard the words, his brows were stained with teasing, "It's a good thing to have ambition. Before that, my prince thinks you should know a few more words."

"..." Mu Yunjin choked on her words, stared sharply, and immediately felt a little annoyed, "I won't quarrel with you, I'm leaving first!"

After finishing speaking, Mu Yunjin left Chu Li's room without looking back, and closed the door with a bang.

After Mu Yunjin went out, Ding Xian pushed the door in and looked at Chu Li in confusion, "His Royal Highness, have you run away in anger again?"

"It's okay, let the kitchen make some more cookies tonight." Chu Li said lightly, and carefully glanced at the cloth note just now.

Ding Xian curled his lips, wanting to complain about Chu Li's logic of coaxing women, but due to his status, it's hard to say it.

"The clue left by Master Kong Shi?" Ding Xian looked at the cloth strip in Chu Li's hand and asked in surprise.

Chu Li nodded, his eyes fell on the black switch that Mu Yunjin had just thrown on the table, his fingers caressed the two buttons, looking at the strange characters on it, his eyes were cold and deep.

"This thing is so strange. Aren't the characters on it the same as the strange characters that appeared in that book that day?" Ding Xian looked at the black remote control and frowned.

Chu Li withdrew his gaze, pursed his lips slightly, and looked at Ding Xian again after a while, "In the past few days, is the dark guard still following Mu Yunjin?"

"Since His Highness gave the jade whistle to the concubine, those hidden guards have been following him."

"Send someone to report to the prince about Mu Yunjin's recent whereabouts."
