When Xi Honglei and others left, Sima Hong stayed in the room. It wasn't until she was sure that they had really left that Sima Hong left the room with a gloomy look and stood in the yard.
Staring at the gradually invisible backs of Mu Yunmeng and others, Sima Hong felt extremely complicated. She thought that Xi Honglei would not appear again, but she didn't expect...
"Master!" Ling'er walked out of the room with a happy face. After seeing Sima Hong's gloomy expression, Ling'er asked uneasily: "What's wrong?"
"It's okay." Sima Hong glanced at Ling'er coldly. After seeing what Ling'er was holding, Sima Hong frowned and asked, "Has this thing been seen by anyone else?"
"Return to Master, no." Ling'er lowered her head guiltily and answered Sima Hong's question in a low voice. Master forbids her to show those Gu insects to others. If Master finds out, she will definitely be punished. "
This is the only thing that survived in the jar last month. I thought it looked strange, so I brought it to the master for a look."
When Sima Hong heard what Ling'er said, she turned her eyes to the poisonous poison in her hand. But Sima Hong only glanced at it twice and had no intention of looking at it any more.
"You should go back to the house first, master, there are still things to do."
Sima Hong left such words to Ling'er and turned around to leave. Ling'er watched Sima Hong leave and went back to her room disappointedly. Looking at the dozens of boxes, large and small, beside the corner, Ling'er
Er remembered what Xi Honglei had said to her before, and her mood improved a little.
Since Xi Honglei left Sima Hong's residence, her attitude towards Mu Yunmeng and Bai Moyue was obviously much colder than before. On the way back to the capital, Xi Honglei remained silent, no matter how much Mu Yunmeng asked,
Xi Honglei didn't even speak.
The tense atmosphere did not ease until the three of them returned to their residence and met other people. Although Ke Xihonglei was willing to speak, the person he spoke to was definitely not Mu Yunmeng.
Xi Honglei deliberately avoided Mu Yunmeng, and everyone else noticed it. Xi Honglei hugged Xi Zichen and returned to the room alone. After playing with Chen'er for more than an hour, Xi Honglei's door was suddenly opened by someone.
It was pushed away.
Xi Honglei looked up and saw Mu Yunmeng's face. Holding Chen'er in her arms, Xi Honglei asked casually: "What are you doing here?"
Xi Honglei's words quickly flashed a hint of gloom in Mu Yunmeng's eyes. Mu Yunmeng walked straight to Xi Honglei and without any explanation, took Chen'er in her arms over.
"Chen'er, go play outside." Mu Yunmeng whispered to Xi Zichen, then patted his head and put him on the ground.
Xi Zichen looked at Mu Yunmeng in confusion, then at Xi Honglei. After thinking about it, he nodded vigorously and ran out of the room.
After Xi Zichen left, Mu Yunmeng sighed quietly. Looking into Xi Honglei's eyes, Mu Yunmeng was helpless and asked in confusion: "What happened?"
"It's okay." Xi Honglei turned her head away, not touching Mu Yunmeng's eyes. Unexpectedly, Mu Yunmeng directly pulled her up from the chair.
"You have to have a reason to lose your temper. Such unreasonable things are not suitable for you." Mu Yunmeng lowered his head and looked at Xi Honglei in front of him, holding her wrist tightly. Mu Yunmeng was afraid that if he was not careful, he would be killed.
Xi Honglei escaped.
"It's really okay." Xi Honglei looked at Mu Yunmeng with a calm expression, "I just feel a little irritable."
"reason?"
"No." Xi Honglei quickly answered Mu Yunmeng's question. Thinking of everything that happened to Sima Hong, Xi Honglei's eyes flashed and asked: "That Jade Rakshasa, do you trust her so much?"
As soon as Xi Honglei's question was asked, Mu Yunmeng was stunned for a moment. Mu Yunmeng looked at Xi Honglei's slightly angry look and asked dubiously: "Are you angry with me because of Sima Hong?"
Since Mu Yunmeng and Xi Honglei have known each other for so long, the number of times Xi Honglei has had tempers with him is very few. Of course Mu Yunmeng would not naively think that when Xi Honglei mentioned Sima Hong at this time, he would be the one who
Because she is too close to Sima Hong. Xi Honglei is a smart woman and a woman who understands him. Mu Yunmeng knows this better than anyone else. So Mu Yunmeng listened to Xi Honglei’s question
After that, he couldn't help but suspect Sima Hong.
"I don't want to see you now." Xi Honglei looked into Mu Yunmeng's eyes with troubled thoughts. Nothing had happened, and no evidence or clues appeared. It was just Xi Honglei, but her eyebrows were already confused. There was no reason.
, I just didn’t want to see Mu Yunmeng’s face. This sudden, uncontrollable rage made Xi Honglei feel inexplicably scared from the bottom of her heart. “Can you please just leave me alone for a while?”
Xi Honglei's slightly pleading voice made Mu Yunmeng unable to shake his head and refuse her. Mu Yunmeng nodded, first hugged Xi Honglei into his arms, and then placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. "
I’ll see you again in the evening, be good.”
Xi Honglei listened to Mu Yunmeng's soft soothing voice, looked at Mu Yunmeng's back as he turned away, and slumped down on the chair. He slowly put his hands on his chest, Xi Honglei bit his lower lip with a painful expression.
Closing his eyes, Xi Honglei murmured to himself: "What the hell happened to me..."
As soon as Mu Yunmeng walked out of Xi Honglei's room, he saw Xi Zichen squatting motionless at the door.
Xi Zichen looked at Mu Yunmeng intently, then turned his head and looked in the direction of Xi Honglei. "You are making me unhappy!" Xi Zichen accused Mu Yunmeng with absolute certainty.
Xi Zichen's expression made Mu Yunmeng couldn't help but chuckle, and blurted out "bastard". Mu Yunmeng leaned down and patted Xi Zichen's head, then whispered: "Chen'er, go to the room to accompany your mother.
Once your mother is coaxed, come to dad to receive the reward."
"Receive the reward?" Xi Zichen blinked, and after thinking about it seriously, he asked, "What's there?"
"You get whatever you want."
"Not lying?"
"Don't lie."
Xi Zichen glanced at Mu Yunmeng timidly, then stood up suddenly, opened the door and ran into the room. Mu Yunmeng looked at the closed wooden door, smiled slightly, and left quickly.
Mu Yunmeng originally wanted to go to Bai Moyue to discuss something, but unexpectedly he ran into Yang Xiang halfway.
"Yunmeng, we found out the whereabouts of Qiu Shitian and Jinyu." Yang Xiang said to Mu Yunmeng excitedly.
"Keep an eye on them." Mu Yunmeng didn't seem to be very interested. After replying to Yang Xiang casually, he continued walking forward without looking back.
Mu Yunmeng's cold reaction made Yang Xiang feel a little disappointed. Yang Xiang looked at Mu Yunmeng's hurried appearance with confusion, secretly guessing what happened.
Mu Yunmeng quickly found Bai Moyue and took Bai Moyue back to the room. Mu Yunmeng said straight to the point: "Arrange someone to keep an eye on Sima Hong for me."
"What happened?" Bai Moyue didn't expect that Mu Yunmeng would act like this just after returning from Sima Hong.
"I feel something is wrong." Mu Yunmeng's eyes flickered. Remembering Xi Honglei's slightly panicked and frightened look, Mu Yunmeng said coldly: "Before we go to find her, keep an eye on her."
Mu Yunmeng had already left the affairs of Xuanxuan Kingdom to Yang Xiang and Bai Moyue. So Bai Moyue naturally knew better than Mu Yunmeng in choosing who to handle this matter. Bai Moyue lowered her eyes and thought about it.
Thinking about it, he suggested: "How about calling Shu Kuang here?"
"Shu Kuang is not successful." Mu Yunmeng frowned and rejected Bai Moyue. "Although Shu Kuang is better than Sima Hong in Qinggong, if something happens, Shu Kuang will definitely not be able to outwit Sima Hong, and he will easily suffer a loss."
"That's true." Bai Moyue nodded thoughtfully, then met Mu Yunmeng's gaze and promised: "Leave this matter to me. If I really can't find a suitable candidate, I will go there myself.
Staring at her, Honglei's reaction before, I also felt that something was not right, so why not take this opportunity to investigate Sima Hong again, maybe there will be some unexpected gains."

Xuanxuan Kingdom, inside the imperial palace in the capital.
Ran Yunpo sat on the dragon chair, looking at the letter in his hand with gloomy eyes. After reading the contents of the letter, Ran Yunpo quickly crumpled the letter into a ball and held it in his hand.
"Go and call Prince Nanjun to me." Ran Yunpo closed his eyes and whispered to the servants on the side. About half an hour later, after Ran Yunpo heard Ran Yunhao's voice, he slowly opened his eyes.
He sewed and looked at Ran Yunhao in front of him.
"See for yourself." Ran Yunpo casually threw the letter in his hand at Ran Yunhao's feet, watching the change of Ran Yunhao's expression indifferently.
Ran Yunhao glanced at Ran Yunpo's angry look in confusion, and bent down to pick up the letter on the ground. After quickly reading the content, Ran Yunhao opened his eyes wide in surprise, shook his head in disbelief, and said, "How is this possible?"
"It's impossible, it's clearly written on it." Ran Yunpo smiled contemptuously, with a hint of displeasure in his words. "Ninth brother, I entrusted you to handle this matter. Now there is such a news,
Tell me, how do you do things?"
Ran Yunhao could clearly hear the sarcasm in Ran Yunpo's words. Ran Yunhao looked at Ran Yunpo calmly, sighed, and said: "I don't believe what is written in this article. Please investigate this matter clearly, and then make a conclusion.
.”
"Okay." Ran Yunpo nodded and agreed happily to Ran Yunhao. "Since you said so, I will let you check. But if what is written in this letter is indeed true, you have to think about what to do.
?”
"My brother understands what the emperor means." Ran Yunhao lowered his head, feeling uneasy. He could even feel that the hand holding the letter was trembling slightly.
Ran Yunhao listened to Ran Yunpo's instructions, and after getting permission and leaving Ran Yunpo's palace, Ran Yunhao breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the wrinkled white paper in his hand, Ran Yunhao still couldn't believe what was written on it. Where did Ran Yunpo get this news? Do they really have such courage?
