I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

Chapter 886: He wants to rebel?

"Gift?" The queen became even more curious, and her eyes narrowed into slits as she smiled.

"Ling'er, Ling'er, go and call your brother back now."

Li Ling'er was a little restless. She had a dizzy and unreal feeling throughout the journey.

Now that Li Mu was not around, she finally came to her senses.

On an occasion like today, there was no way Li Mu could be allowed to "make trouble".

The queen waved her hand indifferently and said with a smile,

"It's okay. Qingyi is a sensible kid."

"But you, what's going on?"

"I still remember that you were unwilling to marry Qing Yi at first."

Hearing this, Li Linger's face immediately turned red. She lowered her head shyly and stammered,

"Well, it's my father's will after all. I have no say over it. I have the final say."

"Oh? If you really don't want to get married, then I will make the decision for you."

"No!" Hearing this, Li Ling'er instantly became anxious and quickly admitted in a delicate voice, "Ling'er, Ling'er is willing."

"Hahahaha, you girl."

The Queen was laughing so hard that her body was shaking. However, as she held Li Linger's hand, her laughter suddenly stopped and she sighed slightly.

"Ling'er, can you please tell me the truth?"

Li Ling'er was stunned, she looked up at the queen, and saw a hint of sadness between her brows, she nodded woodenly.

"Ling'er, is Chuyi at your house?"

The Queen came straight to the point. She knew that Li Ling'er's personality was very similar to that of the Prince of Yan, and beating around the bush would only backfire.

"This……"

Thinking of Zhao Chuyi's appearance when she entered the mansion, Li Ling'er hesitated, her eyes searching for Li Mu's figure.

Seeing this, the Queen already knew the answer. She patted Li Linger's hand and said softly,

"Okay, I won't make things difficult for you."

"Tell Qingyi a message for me. I will hand Chuyi over to him. I will handle the rest. Don't tell him to worry."

"Ah?" Li Ling'er was confused and didn't know how to answer.

The queen smiled bitterly and shook her head, then pulled Li Ling'er up.

"Just tell me what you said, Qing Yi will understand."

"Come on, you accompany me to see New Year's Eve."

"By the way, let's see what Qing Yi is up to. Why did he disappear in a flash?"

The queen was a little disappointed.

When she learned that Li Mu had come to the East City Gate, she was looking forward to it.

She thought Li Mu would come to question her.

Questioning why the "dirty water" was thrown on Zhao Chuyi.

She had already thought of her excuse.

She took all aspects into consideration, whether it was for the greater good or for the hardship.

Even more, as long as he finally proposed to let Zhao Chuyi fake her death and stay with Li Mu.

Maybe Zhao Chuyi will cooperate willingly.

The Queen has spent so much time and effort on Li Mu.

Now is the time for this chess piece of his to come into play.

There has to be someone to check and balance the people of the previous dynasty.

In the past, the person chosen by the queen was Mu Zhen.

But when Li Mu came to Beijing for the first time, she fell in love with Mu Zhen's second disciple at first sight.

Amazing martial arts talent is the bottom line, so that he will not perish in the lowest level assassination.

He is smooth, yet proud.

He is talented, shrewd, decisive yet kind.

Most importantly, the advantages are as obvious as the disadvantages.

Greedy for money and lustful but values ​​friendship.

In the Queen's opinion, such people are the easiest to control.

...

Outside the tent, the sun is shining brightly.

The sun in early summer is already quite scorching.

Surrounded by a group of palace maids and guards, the two of them walked slowly towards the city gate.

At this moment, Li Mu was seen carrying a long black mace in his left hand and dragging a throne that he had taken from somewhere in his right hand, and sitting in the middle of the city gate.

"elder brother!"

Li Linger was startled and subconsciously covered her face. What was the purpose of this "conspicuous bag"?

Along the way, she had already learned that those outside the city were not rebels, but support troops deployed outside the pass by Emperor Hongwen.

Li Ling'er, who had never experienced any major storms, was like most of the people in Xing Dynasty. They believed whatever the emperor said.

Li Ling'er was about to go forward and call Li Mu back, but the queen beside her stopped her, shook her head and smiled,

"No rush, let's wait and see. Qingyi is a sensible child. He must have his reasons for doing this."

The queen's doting on Li Mu had reached an extreme level.

At this moment, she vaguely guessed what Li Mu was going to do.

Li Mu was not unwilling to stand up for Zhao Chuyi, but he set his sights on the prince.

This also confirmed the Queen's judgment on Li Mu. He was still unwilling to break off with her kind elder.

The queen smiled, feeling that everything was going according to her plan.

She believed that Li Mu's lawlessness was caused by her indulgence and pampering.

The more domineering and arrogant Li Mu was, the more she was willing to give him power.

She knew that Meng Siyu was secretly building up power, so she did not hesitate to secretly put pressure on the Bai families to urge them to submit.

A large part of Meng Siyu's success is attributed to the Queen.

The queen was very confident. All the foundations of Li Mu were provided by her, so she was not afraid of backlash.

She can take back everything Li Mu has now at any time.

...

Outside the city gate, all the officials and Zhao Chuxi and others were stunned when they saw Li Mu when they arrived at the city gate.

Sima Ping was the first to jump out and asked arrogantly,

"Prince Zhennan is also here to welcome the Crown Prince?"

Now his attitude towards Li Mu took a sharp turn for the worse.

Chen Zhihe had tried to make friends with him several times before, but had failed.

The visiting cards sent to Linglong Waterside several times were all ignored.

He understood what Li Mu meant.

It is even clearer that he is now the right prime minister of the dynasty, and Li Mu has been made a king.

Making friends is no longer possible.

After all, he still had some literary character. He didn't need to take huge risks to please a young boy who didn't know anything.

At the bottom of the building, Li Mu was sitting with his legs crossed, resting horizontally on his thighs, his head tilted up to the sky, his mouth slightly open, looking like he was asleep.

"King of Zhennan!"

Sima Ping blew again, his voice mixed with his internal strength.

Li Mu seemed to be awakened from his sleep, looked at Sima Ping unhappily, narrowed his eyes and asked,

"you call me?"

"I wonder what your Highness means?" Sima Ping put his hands behind his back and slowly approached Li Mu.

Li Mu looked at him, straightened his body slightly, and with a clang, he pushed the water stopper into the ground in front of him and said slowly,

"I'm here to inform you that from today on, the surname here is Li. You can go back to where you came from."

???

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned.

Even the queen was no exception. This was not what she expected!

This kid, is he planning to rebel?

A person?

The queen subconsciously looked around to see if there were nearly ten thousand swordsmen and axemen lying in ambush nearby.

"You bold lunatic! Do you know what you are talking about?!"

Sima Ping was so happy that he went crazy. No matter whether Li Mu was suffering from hysteria or drunk, based on this sentence, he would definitely be able to skin Mu Zhen alive this time.

I heard that the second young lady of the Lu family was also recuperating in Li Mu's house. Given this relationship, if he handled it properly, Lu Chongyun would probably be to blame.

...

Next to the city wall, on the roof of a two-story restaurant.

Zhang Hanrui and Yin Huanping, who had been following and monitoring the 'young couple shopping' all the way, looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.

"What's your idea?" they both asked in unison.

They all thought that such a stupid move was the other party's idea.

Zhang Hanrui was the first to react. She grabbed Yin Huanping and said anxiously,

"Return home immediately and have Youzhi arrange for everyone to leave from the South City Gate and join up with the Wu Clan's team!"

At this critical moment, she still trusted her apprentice the most, believing that she could make the most appropriate judgment and bring everyone out of the city safely.

"What about you?" Yin Huanping nodded, but still asked with concern.

"I will help this brat. The army is still far away from here. Those outside the city can't do anything to us!"

Zhang Hanrui's pretty face flushed red and her teeth were grinding.

However, at this moment, there was a burst of rapid breathing and a deep and sweet "husband~"

Meng Siyu's cheeks were flushed red, her lips were tightly bitten with her pearly teeth, and her eyes were staring at Li Mu as if drawing threads.

She tried her best to keep her legs together, twisted her waist slightly, and made some ambiguous 'humming' sounds from her throat from time to time.
