Jiang Bo was startled and reacted violently, as if he was electrocuted. He jerked his hand back and took two steps back.
"what are you doing?"
His eyes were filled with anger, but his face became increasingly red.
Mu Qingchao was freed from his imprisonment and smiled brightly at him.
"My lord, why are you running?
The Ai family has heard that the prince is upright and upright in protecting the family and the country. The Ai family always feels panicked and scared at night. Can the prince use your righteousness to help the Ai family suppress it?"
"you you……"
Jiang Bo really didn't know what to say to such a woman.
"You are simply unreasonable!"
After saying this, he flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked away, his steps panicked, but as if he was running away.
Mu Qingchao stood behind him and looked at his back. He finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to Chaoyun Palace after a moment.
In Chaoyun Palace, Lu Li was waiting for her.
He was still wearing white clothes, and there was still makeup on his face, but his face was full of apologies. He stood dejectedly in the middle of the yard, looking very funny.
"This subordinate did not do his job well. Please punish me, Queen Mother." Lu Li knelt down towards Mu Qingchao.
He was working for Mu Qingchao. Unexpectedly, his secret was almost exposed tonight. If the Queen Mother had not appeared in time and caught the prince making a joke, he would have been caught.
Mu Qingchao had always been good to his subordinates and had never treated him badly, let alone treated him greatly before, but he could not even do small things well.
Lu Li felt even more guilty when he thought of this.
But he saw Mu Qingchao just lazily sitting on the swing in the yard and said lightly: "I don't blame you, it was just that the matter was in a hurry, otherwise you wouldn't have exposed your flaws."
To be honest, Mu Qingchao was still a little shocked.
Zhong Yingying was really beyond her expectation. She didn't expect that she looked so soft and weak on the outside. She thought she would be scared out of her wits. Who would have expected that she could turn things around and forcefully change a bunch of bad cards?
Play style.
The ghost who scared her half to death was turned into a means of inviting favors by her.
She had underestimated her ability and courage before. Any arrogance based on talent or indifference and aloofness were just a pretense to achieve her goals.
Seeing that the situation tonight was not good for Shen Muchi, Mu Qingchao temporarily asked Lu Li to pretend to be a ghost and rescued Shen Muchi from Zhong Yingying's hands.
However, he acted in a hurry and was not completely prepared, so he was bumped into by Jiang Bo.
It was really dangerous. If she hadn't come out to cover Lu Li just now, she would have been caught by Jiang Bo and sent to Shen Muchi.
When the time comes, the evidence is irrefutable, and Shen Muchi may not be able to protect it even if he wants to.
"That's all, it's a near miss after all. You're tired too, so take a rest early."
Mu Qingchao rested for a while, then got up and went into the house. Before leaving, he did not forget to comfort his employees: "You have worked hard during this period. When this matter is over, the Aijia will give you a few days' rest."
Fake."
"Queen Mother!"
However, Lu Li seemed to be very conscious of being a worker. He felt that he did not need to rest, and even began to actively worry about his boss: "What if that Jiang Bo tells what happened tonight?"
Mu Qingchao paused.
"Jiang Bo? He shouldn't do this, right?"
"Does the Queen Mother know him well? He is now the commander of the Forbidden Army, and he is in charge of these things. Anyone who can catch any clues will be rewarded based on his merits."
Lu Li's words made Mu Qingchao startled, and he suddenly felt like he was enlightened.
Yes, why would she let down her guard against Jiang Bo so much?
It would be fine if Jiang Bo just reported what happened tonight to Shen Muchi. If some news was revealed elsewhere and fell into Zhong Ming's ears, it would be a disaster for her.
But it was strange. Just outside the palace, when she saw that the person chasing Lu Li was Jiang Bo, she felt inexplicably relieved.
That feeling was that fortunately it was Jiang Bo and not someone else.
But...why does she feel like this?
She obviously only met him a few times?
Is it intuition?
But when she relived her life, she had to ensure that every step was foolproof, and the last thing she should do was to rely on intuition.
Or is it the belief in Jiang Bo’s character?
Just like Shen Muchi, he confidently felt that everyone in the world could betray him, except Jiang Bo.
This is how Jiang Bo gives everyone a sense of peace of mind.
The country is guarded by rivers, so the emperor is at ease; the country is guarded by rivers, so the people are at ease.
It's because everyone knows who he is, and knows that he won't be roundabout or calculating. He is as thorough and thorough as a piece of white paper, so hard that he would rather break than bend.
Mu Qingchao thought for a long time before saying something very perfunctory: "No, it's useless for him to say something without evidence. When the time comes, as long as the Ai family refuses to admit it, what can he do?"
After saying that, he entered the house and closed the door.
Lu Li stood alone in the courtyard and stared at the closed door, but he was stunned for a long time.
When he was chased by Jiang Bo today, he had already thought clearly that if he fell into his hands, he would bear all the charges alone and would never involve the Queen Mother.
But to his surprise, the Queen Mother actually stood up at that moment and covered him.
Everyone said that there was a goblin living deep in the palace.
He has the face of a fox but a heart of snakes and scorpions, eats people and drinks blood, and does all kinds of evil.
But when Lu Li really got to know Mu Qingchao, he realized that she was actually flesh and blood, and she would never let down anyone who treated her sincerely.
She is the master and he is the servant.
If she could really be more cruel and ruthless, in a situation like this tonight, she could have given up her car to save the handsome man.
But she didn't. She stood up without any hesitation and lived and died with him, advancing and retreating together.
Even though her methods were not very glorious, she was just a woman, a woman with no strength, but her courage and courage were something that even ten men could not match.
**
Mu Qingchao really guessed it correctly, and Jiang Bo was really tight-lipped.
He was really tight-lipped. There were rumors of "female ghosts" everywhere in the palace, but he didn't even let the news out.
but……
He seems to have doubts about her and patrols outside Chaoyun Palace every day.
This indeed made Mu Qingchao unable to use his tricks.
Even Chunya couldn't stand it any longer and kept mumbling: "What does Prince Jiang mean? Eight of the twelve hours a day are staring at our Chaoyun Palace, which makes it inconvenient for us to go out." Already."
Mu Qingchao was helpless.
This Jiang Bo is a man who has nothing to do with anything. Now that he has doubts about Chaoyun Palace, she has no way to do anything.
I stayed in the palace for two days.
Suddenly an idea flashed. Since the people in front of the palace gate couldn't be driven away, why not use the waste?
That day, Jiang Bo was patrolling. Mu Qingchao suddenly opened the palace door and stood in front of Jiang Bo. He raised his fingers at him and said, "Prince Jiang, come here. I have something to tell you about the Ai family.
