It was getting dark, and they had almost eaten, so they walked back together slowly.
The atmosphere on the road was harmonious, and the happy scene made Mu Qingyan couldn't help but sigh, she had never experienced such a scene in her previous life.
She caught a cold during the day, so Bailiyou was worried and did not dare to pester her anymore. After a few words of warning, he went back to the house and took Bailijin back with him.
Jiang Xingsheng originally planned to go see Jiang Xingge, but he thought about it in a flash. He might get scolded by her again if he went so late, so he might as well forget it.
So only two brothers and sisters, Mu Xuan and Qing Yan, were left.
They walked in silence, Mu Qingyan really didn't know what to say. Today's situation was a bit beyond her expectations.
She didn't know what her brother was thinking.
"You have to be careful about Baili Qi." Suddenly, Mu Xuan spoke, his voice so soft that she almost didn't hear him clearly.
She nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, brother, I will do it."
"How is the progress of your investigation?"
When she mentioned this, Mu Qingyan felt a little sad, "He hid it too deeply..."
Mu Xuan touched her head comfortingly, "Just come to me if you need anything." He would not stop his sister. He would not interfere with what she could do, but he would never stand by and watch when there was danger.
"Um."
——
"Brother Imperial, you seem to be in a good mood." Here, Bai Lijin was walking and suddenly came over and asked.
Bailiyou glanced at him lightly but said nothing. Seeing his expression, Bailijin felt certain.
It wasn't easy. Mu Qingyan finally got the idea and refused to give in to the emperor's efforts.
Others may not know, but he knows exactly how much the emperor's brother has done in private.
"Royal Brother"
Bailiyou stopped and looked at him coldly, "Are you very idle?"
Bailijin sensed the danger and immediately shook his head, "No, no, I'm very busy." After saying that, he ran away without daring to ask any more questions.
If he doesn't leave, those piles of notes will become his. Who knows, he'll have a headache just seeing those things.
Baili Jin returned to his yard as quickly as possible, and just as he was about to close the door, he smelled the aroma of wine.
His eyes lit up, good wine!
There was no alcohol in this temple, and he was almost drunk when he smelled this smell.
But where did the wine come from? A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
Following the smell, Bai Lijin walked to the edge of the yard, and the aroma became stronger and stronger.
He raised his head and glanced at the sky. It was already dark now. Taking advantage of the darkness, he jumped up the wall lightly. If he remembered correctly, the concubine from the Prime Minister's Mansion seemed to live here.
Seeing a big tree opposite, with lush branches and leaves, it was very hidden. His eyes lit up and he climbed over it with great skill.
His Qinggong was not inferior to that of the emperor's brother, and Jiang Ye was now paralyzed by wine and unable to notice him.
This guy actually brought wine.
Bailijin geared up excitedly, looking at the door eager to try.
After a while, Jiang Ye staggered out, his eyes a little blurry. Was he drunk?
Baili Jin thought.
Jiang Ye walked through the courtyard and didn't notice Baili Jin hiding in the tree. He opened the door and waved to the guards: "You are not allowed to follow me."
There was only one guard he brought with him. He was just a third-rate guard. He was not on the same level as Mu Qi, let alone finding someone entering the courtyard.
Looking at Jiang Ye's leaving figure, Bai Lijin suddenly smiled and looked at the room with evil intentions. He could just take away the jar of wine now.
But he was also a little curious, it was already dark, where was Jiang Ye going?
Xiao Meijiu, wait for me to come back obediently!
He smiled at the room, and then followed Jiang Ye quietly.
Jiang Ye walked out of the door and entered the courtyard within a few steps.
Baili Jin hid in the tree and frowned, isn't this the West Courtyard?
What was he doing at the woman's residence in the dark and windy night?
Forget it, he'd better not go in. Bailijin turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly thought that Mu Qingyan also lived here, and his heart suddenly sounded alarm. For the sake of the emperor's brother, he still observed and observed...
Bailijin's expression changed when she looked at the person who came out of the yard whom Jiang Ye slapped.
She thought to herself that it was lucky that he followed her, otherwise Mu Qingyan would have suffered a lot tonight.
Fenxiang frowned and looked at the man in front of her who smelled of alcohol, and said in a not-so-good tone: "My young lady has gone to bed. If you have anything to do with me, please talk to me tomorrow."
Jiang Ye drank wine and became very angry. When he heard what she said, he pushed her away and said, "Get out of the way. It's not your turn as a slave to speak here!"
Mu Qingyan heard the noise and walked out, just in time to see Fenxiang being pushed. She raised her head and looked at Jiang Ye coldly, her voice cold: "Jiang Ye, you are trying to count the stars for me, are you looking for me to count the stars?"
It was still a cool day today, and it was probably going to rain. A gust of wind blew by, mixed with the smell of alcohol, and drifted towards Mu Qingyan. She frowned slightly and looked at Jiang Ye with even more displeasure.
Drinking in a Buddhist holy place is really embarrassing to the Prime Minister's Palace.
"M-Miss Mu..." Jiang Ye looked at her beautiful face infatuatedly and was about to step forward.
Mu Qi narrowed his eyes and stepped forward to unsheath his sword.
By the time Jiang Ye reacted, the sharp blade was already on his neck. The cold blade immediately woke him up and he stared at Mu Qi in horror.
Baili Jin in the dark smacked his tongue and said to himself that he deserved it.
He had forgotten that Mu Qingyan was protected by such a strong martial arts guard.
Facing Mu Qi's cold gaze, Jiang Ye swallowed.
Mu Qingyan didn't even walk down the steps, but she warned coldly: "Jiang Ye, you are so brave. You dare to break into my residence at night. You, a bastard of the Jiang family, have you done enough?"
She hates this kind of man the most. Oh, he is drunk and comes to her yard. Don't tell her it was accidental!
Jiang Ye's expression changed and he quickly explained: "I drank too much. I drank too much. Miss Mu gave me a generous hand and let me go."
Damn it, the alcohol caused him to lose his mind. If Mu Qingyan sued, he would die from alcoholism.
Bailijin looked at him with disdain for being so cowardly.
"I don't think I know what happened tonight, so get out." She didn't want to waste her time on this bastard.
Not a good person either.
Hearing her words, Jiang Ye's eyes narrowed, but he couldn't say anything and could only live with it. Now it was his fault first.
Mu Qi withdrew his sword and returned to Mu Qingyan, staring at Jiang Ye without any warmth in his eyes.
Jiang Ye trembled unconsciously when he touched his eyes. The guard's eyes were so terrifying.
He calmed down and put on a stiff smile, "Misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. If it disturbs Mu Qingyan's rest, I'll leave immediately."
After saying that, he left her yard as if he was running away.
Domineering!
Baili Jin couldn't help but clapped her hands and applauded. He glanced at her in surprise and then followed Jiang Ye. He didn't expect that a person who usually looked like a docile little sheep could actually be so domineering at times.
Fortunately, he was worried that Mu Qingyan would suffer a loss.
