Chapter 706 You can’t run away again.
The next moment, the door to the inner room opened automatically.
Zhao Chuyi, who was lying on the eaves of the door, froze. He didn't know whether to leave or go in. He could only explain dryly,
"Sir, I am not..."
"Come in, Shanshan is injured. Princess, please take good care of her tonight."
Li Mu put away the smile on his face and spoke in a businesslike manner.
"Son."
Zhao Chuyi pursed her lips, not hiding the sadness on her face.
"Sir, do you have to be so distant with Chuyi?"
Li Mu lowered his eyes, moving his gaze away from Zhao Chuyi, and said in a calm tone,
"I just got used to it earlier. When Her Royal Highness ascends the throne, will I still be able to address her by her name?"
"Why not!"
Zhao Chuyi bit her lower lip and looked at Li Mu with resentment in her eyes.
"No matter who I am, in your opinion, the first day of the new year is the first day of the new year."
"At least, at least in private, the young master can still be the same as usual."
As she spoke, Zhao Chuyi seemed to have opened up her Ren and Du meridians. She stepped forward, grabbed Li Mu's hand, and pressed it on her slender waist.
Li Mu raised his eyebrows, and after struggling for half a second, he still couldn't take his hand back. He just said in a somewhat indifferent tone,
"So am I the prince consort, the crown princess, or are you planning to make me the queen?"
Li Mu's words were a bit harsh, but Zhao Chuyi didn't care. Her body softened and she fell into Li Mu's arms.
She seemed to have figured it out. Although she couldn't marry Li Mu, it didn't mean she had to draw a clear line between herself and Li Mu.
I was completely stuck in a dead end before.
Just like Xiaozhao, Shanshan, or even Chuntao, what's wrong with that?
Zhao Chuyi put her face against Li Mu's chest, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said,
"Why not, why not let Chuyi take you as his teacher? When you become a tutor in the future, you will have a reason to come to the palace often to teach Chuyi."
???
Damn! What a jerk!
Is the teaching you are talking about serious?
Li Mu was stunned for a moment, and in an instant countless names of his ancestors flashed through his mind.
Lao Ai, Zhang Yizhi, Zhang Changzong, Xue Huaiyi, Li Yi, Bian Ji...
My goodness, this girl wants me to be her male concubine!
Li Mu pushed Zhao Chuyi away.
It was a close call. I was almost tempted.
Li Mu felt that he could no longer stay with Zhao Chuyi.
Otherwise, she would become soft-hearted in a moment, and then how would she act out the scene of chasing her husband to the crematorium?
At first, maybe I just wanted to teach the girl a lesson and let her understand the importance of trusting her man.
But now, Zhao Chuyi’s attitude afterwards is very important.
Li Mu had already vaguely sensed some unusual ambiguity between the queen and the previous dynasty.
What's more, he had no intention of letting Zhao Chuxi go from the beginning to the end.
Now Zhao Chuxi is involved with the previous dynasty again, which is simply like sending a pillow to someone when he is sleepy.
Li Mu had long wanted to go to Guicheng to settle accounts.
Yin Huanping, who was raised as a growth stimulant, Ying Yu, whose entire family was slaughtered, and Zhao Chuxi, who dared to hit his koi that could spit out gold coins.
They all have deep hatred.
What's more, Li Mu had a feeling that even if he didn't go looking for them, they would come looking for him sooner or later.
Therefore, the position of "Crown Prince" of Zhao Chuyi is very important.
Similarly, in order to avoid letting down at the critical moment, training Zhao Chuxi is equally important.
Of course, there is one last point, Taoyao...or rather, the palace's underground vein formation.
If you can master this power, you don't have to worry too much, and you can confront Shan Yuan head-on in the most familiar and direct way.
Thinking of this, Li Mu frowned and said in a cold tone,
"Princess, please respect yourself. You will have to get married sooner or later. Whether you are the crown prince or the king, you cannot escape from this."
"Son..."
Zhao Chuyi wanted to reject it outright and tell Li Mu that she, Zhao Chuyi, would not marry anyone except him.
But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
Li Mu was right, these things were not something she could decide at all.
Even if she becomes the ruler of a country in the future, if she cannot appoint a crown prince, the country will be in jeopardy!
Seeing that Zhao Chuyi really didn't say anything, Li Mu wanted to pounce on her and pin her down to teach this girl a lesson.
Do you really want to put a hat on yourself?
After realizing that he had failed to discipline Zhao Chuyi and felt very upset, Li Mu simply stopped talking.
He gave Shanshan a look, turned around and left.
Shanshan pouted, made the shape of "got it" with her mouth, and watched Li Mu leave.
Knowing that she would have to continue being a little girl tonight, she sighed slightly and reminded him,
"Princess, Master must be really angry."
"I know." Zhao Chuyi pursed her lips, her body trembling slightly.
She could sense that Li Mu was not angry with her before.
This is also the reason why she can throw herself into his arms so openly.
But just now, Li Mu seemed to be really angry with her.
"Hey, if the princess hadn't had any conflicts with the master, Shanshan wouldn't have had to be so embarrassed tonight."
Shanshan reluctantly put on her clothes, stood up and walked to Zhao Chuyi's side, patting her gently.
"Princess, what are you thinking? You know Master's temper. Don't regret it later."
"I'm not doing this for his own good, why do you think it's my fault?"
Zhao Chuyi bit her lips slightly harder and looked at Shanshan with some anger.
Shanshan curled her lips and said nothing more.
Anyway, before leaving, the master just asked her to take good care of the princess. As for other things, it was not something her little brain should worry about.
When he reached the door, he suddenly remembered what Li Mu had said before, and quickly turned around and said,
"By the way, I went to pay my respects to Master today. Miss Lu said she missed the princess a little and asked if you would like to go to the mansion tomorrow."
Hearing this, Zhao Chuyi raised her eyelids and looked at Shanshan suspiciously. After a moment, she smiled again and nodded.
"Of course I have to go. I haven't seen Jianjia for a long time, and I do miss her."
She knew Lu Jianjia very well and knew that with her cold personality, she would definitely not say such things, let alone invite her to her house.
The only person who could make Shanshan lie was Li Mu.
It seems that there is still hope for Shaofu's situation.
Before that, outside the house, I had already imagined a big drama.
After entering the house, she relived Li Mu's embrace. It was impossible to say that she was not moved.
This was the only solution she could think of right now. As for what Li Mu said, she didn't want to think about it at all.
……
Exquisite waterside pavilion.
Under the moonlight, a beautiful figure clenched her fists, her inky eyes staring at the corridor in the distance without blinking.
In the courtyard, Ying Yu sat on a stone table, fiddling with her hair with her fingertips, her two short legs swaying from side to side.
"Don't look at it. The young master has gone to the palace. He might not come back tonight."
Lu Jianjia pursed her thin lips but said nothing.
The young master promised that he would come over tonight and he would not go back on his word.
In the past few days, she has begun to feel a little overwhelmed. She slept through the night in the past few nights.
Perhaps after tonight, I will never see such a beautiful starry sky again.
She didn't tell anyone, but resigned herself to letting Ying Yu convey the message for her.
If I miss Li Mu tonight, it will be God's will.
During this time, she had made arrangements so that after tonight, no one would know she had been here, and no one would know she had left.
Looking up at the night sky, Lu Jianjia sighed softly, turned to look at Ying Yu, and smiled,
"Sister Xiaoyu, call Ling'er, let's go listen to some music."
"You're not waiting for me, young master?" Ying Yu paused, then narrowed his eyes slowly and nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, okay. I heard that there's a new courtesan in Yujing Tower. I'll go ask Mingyan for money right now."
"This commander will redeem the Oiran tonight!"
Ying Yu felt a little sad when he thought about the sisters he had cultivated for so long running away.
This time she bought an oiran, she can’t run away again.
