Chapter 39 Only if you are alive can you have hope
"I can't live under your wings forever, brother." Mu Qingyan shook her head. She still had important things to do and many things to learn.
Staring at her serious face, Mu Xuan seemed to know her for the first time. His sister had really changed a lot.
She was strategic and smart, but it was a pity that she was only focused on Baili Qi. Now that she had found her way back, he felt distressed again.
Mu Qingyan was very nervous because she was not sure whether her brother would agree with her words or whether he would regard her words as nonsense.
She felt like she had been waiting for a long time before she heard the man in front of her nod in agreement, "Okay, I'll help you."
She smiled from the bottom of her heart, "Thank you, brother."
But what should she do?
Mu Xuan suddenly said, "The Mu Qi beside you is only loyal to you. How you use him is up to you."
Mu Qingyan was puzzled. She knew that Mu Qi was loyal, but how could she do it with Mu Qi alone?
Seeing her half-informed look, Mu Xuan sighed and had to remind him again, "Yan'er, those who want to achieve great things must have their own confidants around them."
No one can conquer the world alone. Even the Holy Emperor needs the help of the princes and generals behind him to secure the throne.
"Think about it carefully, and come find me when you have figured it out." After saying that, he turned and left, leaving behind a frowning Mu Qingyan.
Confidant??
What does brother mean?
Mu Qingyan admitted that her mind really couldn't turn around for a while. She hadn't thought about it for too long.
Mu Qi was waiting anxiously in Liuyan Pavilion, suppressing emotions in his heart. Even though he knew it was impossible, he still couldn't help but feel uncomfortable when he heard that the prince came in person.
With only one year left, the young lady will marry into the Eastern Palace...
From a distance, Mu Qingyan saw his figure, and her originally chaotic thoughts were suddenly dispersed by the clouds, and she suddenly understood the meaning of Mu Xuan's words.
yes!
She also has her own cronies to train. Mu Qi is the head of the secret guards and is also responsible for the training of newcomers. There must be many outstanding people under her. Why not find a few of them to join her?
Not only can he protect his own safety, but he can also find out more information to prevent Baili Qi from making more small moves.
Seeing her figure, Mu Qi couldn't wait to greet her, "Miss."
Mu Qingyan nodded lightly, turned around and told Fenxiang, "Stay at the door and don't allow anyone to disturb you."
Fennel nodded.
She looked up at Mu Qi and said softly: "Mu Qi, come in with me." After saying that, she entered the house.
Could it be that something happened? Mu Qi was startled, and quickly followed in and closed the door, "Is the lady in trouble?"
Mu Qingyan walked to the window and stood still, then slowly turned around with a serious expression, staring at the man opposite her seriously, her lips parted lightly: "Mu Qi, I want you to do something for me."
Mu Qi's expression immediately became serious, he clasped his fists and said, "Miss, just ask."
No matter what the lady said, he would definitely do it.
"I want you to check all the evidence of Bailiqi's usual bribery or bullying of the people."
Mu Qi suddenly raised his head and looked at her in disbelief. Seeing that she didn't look like she was telling lies, he couldn't react, "You want your subordinate to check King Qi?"
Mu Qingyan nodded firmly, eyes flashing, "Find these first, and then think about the rest in the long run."
In order to oppose the Crown Prince Bailiyou, he secretly worked hard. She knew Bailiqi too well. In the court, he would use any means to win over the ministers. If anyone refused, he would use their family members and children to threaten him.
People like him have done a lot of dirty things.
It's a pity that she was too stupid back then and was afraid of abandoning him, so she never stopped his behavior. In fact, he was an insidious, cunning, inhumane beast who looked down upon human life!
She must dig out all his crimes bit by bit. Even if the Holy Emperor is afraid of the Mu family, she is still the quasi-Crown Princess. If these are handed over to Bailiyou, given the Holy Emperor's preference for Bailiyou, if she knows her second
The son actually wants to kill the prince, he will not let him go.
It's just... that's all.
Mu Qingyan pursed her lips. She had no other choice. The only one who could fight against Baili Qi was Bailiyou. Her body was already dirty, so what should she be afraid of?
As long as she can keep the Mu family, don't make the same mistakes again, and let her live well, she is willing to marry the prince.
At the very least, the Holy One will not touch her.
"Don't worry, Miss, Mu Qiding will fulfill his mission."
She looked at Mu Qi and softened her voice, "You must be careful. Life is more important than anything else. You must remember that no matter what the situation, you must live."
Is the young lady caring about him? Mu Qi was ecstatic, but still maintained the original expression on his face, "I understand."
"besides."
besides??
Mu Qingyan took a deep breath and said, "I want you to find a few more personal guards here."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a trace of disappointment flash in Mu Qi's eyes. She quickly added: "You can't handle it yourself, so you want to find a few more people to help you share the burden. Some things don't need you to do it, just let them do it. You can leave it to them."
by my side."
Mu Qi's eyes lit up in vain when he heard the last sentence, and his tone could not hide his happiness, "I will do it later."
The lady wants him to stay by her side!
Mu Qingyan couldn't laugh or cry, "Don't worry, I'll go with you tomorrow and I'll choose it myself." After saying that, she was afraid that he would think too much, so she added: "It's not that I don't believe you, but I also want to see it.
look."
Mu Qi nodded, as long as the lady is happy, she can do anything.
A smile appeared on his face unconsciously. It was not that Mu Qingyan had never seen him smile before, but it was the first time that he smiled so obviously.
"Mu Qi."
Mu Qi looked at her in confusion and saw her walking over and suddenly hugging him gently.
"Miss?!!" His pupils shrank sharply, his body froze and he did not dare to move. The fragrance of the girl in his arms made him unable to tell whether it was reality or fantasy.
Mu Qingyan had no other intentions. She already regarded Mu Qi as her brother and as a family member. He had been by her side to protect him since she was ten years old. Before she had time to marry, Baili Qi was killed by Baili Qi.
Brutal killing.
She didn't want the tragedy to happen again.
Thinking about it, her eyes turned slightly red and she whispered: "You must, must live."
Only when you are alive can you have hope.
Mu Qi's heart was beating hard, and the blood all over his body was boiling. He had never been so excited as he was now.
His lowered hands were clenched into fists, and he tried his best to suppress the urge to hug her, telling himself over and over again that the lady had no such thoughts.
After a long time, he suppressed his emotions and replied in a shaky voice: "Okay."
He will definitely live well.
——
Soon, the news spread that Prince Bailiyou personally visited Miss Mu at the Prime Minister's Mansion, and even recounted word for word what they had said during the meal together.
Now no one dares to doubt Mu Qingyan's innocence. Since His Highness has done this, the answer is obvious.
Mu Qingyan knew that it was Bailiyou who was behind this, and if it wasn't for him, how could it have spread so fast.
He has been protecting her from beginning to end.
Baili Qi had also received the news. Hearing Jiuqi's report, he became furious and suddenly slapped his palm on the table.
"He made a good calculation! It's really good!"
I went to the Prime Minister's Mansion last time, and I went there again this time. Are you deliberately trying to spite him?
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince seems to be becoming more and more proactive. Do you need to take the next step?"
The man sneered disdainfully, "Don't you think it's too late to take the initiative now? Will Mu Qingyan accept him easily?"
I hated him the most before, but how could I change my mind so easily?
