211. Suspicion of Hidden Love: Deliberate Exploration【2】
When Xuanyuan Zhichen heard this, his tall and tall body trembled, and his soft eyes flashed with inexplicable sadness. He looked at Mu Jieyu with a hint of unexplainable complexity.
Even though he was mentally prepared, Mu Jieyu still felt a little cold when he looked at Xuanyuan Zhichen's unclear eyes: "Second brother, if you want to blame me..."
"Silly Minmin." Before Mu Jieyu finished speaking, Xuanyuan Zhichen stretched out his arms and took her into his arms, "Second brother doesn't want your hands to be stained with blood. Remember, there is still second brother here.
, whoever hurts you, no matter who it is, the second brother will seek justice for you, even if the second brother cannot, there is still the emperor, the second brother and the emperor hope that you can be carefree for the rest of your life."
Mu Jieyu's heart suddenly felt warm and her eyes felt astringent. Feeling this warm embrace without impurities caused a surge of heat in her heart, overflowing her limbs and bones.
She originally thought he was going to blame her. After all, Dugu Sen's death would weaken the power of the Dugu family. Luo Zhongping's death would set off a fight in the Luo family, which has a rich heir, and would even make the leaderless Chamber of Commerce ready to make a move. It can be said that she
This move brought about a lot of fluctuations, and as the superiors, Emperor Hong'an and Xuanyuan Zhichen would be busy for a while.
"Second brother, you are so kind to Minmin." Mu Jieyu smiled movedly and broke away from Xuanyuan Zhichen's arms. It is understandable that he can't help himself for a while, but Donggong, who has many eyes, must be cautious in his words and actions.
, "Second brother, why are you so nice to Minmin?"
Mu Jieyu's question made Xuanyuan Zhichen's smile falter, and then he smiled again: "Because Minmin is the second brother's only sister, and she must protect her with all her strength."
Naturally, Mu Jieyu would not ask Hong'an Emperor why he, the nominal cousin, became the only sister among the several princesses. Instead, he said instead: "Second brother didn't ask me why I attacked Dugu Sen and Luo Zhongping."
What?"
"They deserve to die." Xuanyuan Zhichen was still as gentle as the spring breeze, but a hint of ruthlessness clearly flashed in his dark and deep eyes.
Mu Jieyu knew at a glance that Xuanyuan Zhichen might have found out the truth. So he asked again: "Second brother, do you know why they want to join forces to deal with me? The Dugu family and the Luo family have never been in contact with each other."
Xuanyuan Zhichen naturally already knew why Dugu Sen did this, but Luo Zhongping or even Liao, Xuanyuan Zhichen really didn't know the reason.
Mu Jieyu saw Xuanyuan Zhichen frowning slightly, so he smiled softly and said: "Luo Zhongping said that I am a witch who has brought disaster to the country, and Princess Duanjing said that I should not have such a face." As he said this,
, Mu Jieyu carefully observed Xuan
Xuanyuan Zhichen's expression showed that his pupils instantly contracted and his gentle breathing became stagnant. However, he pretended not to notice these subtle changes and asked Xuanyuan Zhichen with a puzzled look on his face, "Second brother, do you know the reason for this?"
?”
"Did they say anything else to you?" Xuanyuan Zhichen, who had always been steady, calm and gentle, looked at Mu Jieyu so nervously for the first time.
Mu Jieyu shook his head with clear eyes: "It's precisely because they said I was confused, that's why I wanted to find the answer from my second brother to prevent others from taking action against me again."
Mu Jieyu's words were nothing more than a tactful reminder to Xuanyuan Zhichen that Luo Zhongping and Liao knew her true identity, so as to attract Xuanyuan Zhichen's attention and let him secretly investigate whether anyone else knew the secret.
