Jinyu walked out of the room slowly, and Xi Honglei was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. Sitting on the bedside dejectedly, Xi Honglei moaned in pain. One wave after another. Jinyu, should she take him?
what to do?
Just when Xi Honglei had a headache and wanted to lie down and rest, she heard another strange noise coming from the door.
Xi Honglei frowned and looked, thinking that Jinyu wanted to come back again to make herself uncomfortable. But when she saw the person who appeared in front of her, she was stunned.
"You...why are you here?" Xi Honglei stood up and looked at the man slowly walking towards him with twinkling eyes.
Mu Yunmeng looked at Xi Honglei with indifferent eyes. When he walked to the bed, he looked directly at Chen'er on the bed without saying a word.
Mu Yunmeng's strange behavior made Xi Honglei feel that something was not right. She looked at Mu Yunmeng's side face intently, seeing that he still didn't even look at her, Xi Honglei was thinking about it.
After leaving, his eyes flashed and he asked in a low voice: "When did you come?"
Xi Honglei's question finally made Mu Yunmeng have some reaction. He turned his head slightly, glanced at Xi Honglei, and asked, "What do you think?"
Mu Yunmeng's words made Xi Honglei understand what was going on. Xi Honglei sighed secretly and asked knowingly: "So you heard the conversation between Jinyu and me?"
"you guess."
Mu Yunmeng's two identical answers made Xi Honglei a little frightened. Especially when she saw Mu Yunmeng turning around, facing her, and approaching her, Xi Honglei subconsciously said
He stepped back and opened the distance between the two.
Mu Yunmeng looked at Xi Honglei's actions and did not push him over. His eyes dimmed, Mu Yunmeng raised his hand and took out a small white porcelain bottle from his waist, and threw it into Xi Honglei's arms.
"Take the medicine yourself, I'll leave first."
After saying that, Mu Yunmeng turned around and walked towards the door.
Xi Honglei lowered his head and looked at the medicine bottle in his hand. Hearing Mu Yunmeng's very wrong tone, he curled his lips and stalked after him. He raised his hand and held Mu Yunmeng's sleeve, Xi Honglei had a smile in his eyes.
He stared at Mu Yunmeng and asked softly: "Are you having trouble with me, or with whom?"
Yes, they were making trouble. But even Mu Yunmeng himself couldn't figure out why he was making such trouble.
Because he was worried about Xi Honglei's arm injury, after cleaning up the mess, he rushed into the palace to deliver medicine to her. Mu Yunmeng knew Xi Honglei, so he also understood that even without him, she would
She could live a good life. However, when everything was before his eyes, when he heard with his own ears that other men were going to risk life and death for her, and planned to kill himself with her, and take their children to a strange place to live a good life.
When she was in bed, Mu Yunmeng still couldn't control herself. After all, the person who can accompany her and the child every day is Jinyu, not him.
This strange feeling made Mu Yunmeng feel upset and uncomfortable.
After listening to Xi Honglei's words, Mu Yunmeng turned back to look at her and whispered: "What do you think?"
Mu Yunmeng's answer made Xi Honglei laugh out loud. "Is it Jinyu, Ran Yunpo, or... is it yourself?" The corners of Xi Honglei's mouth raised, meeting Mu Yunmeng's eyes, "Don't say goodbye first.
Come on, I still have something to say to you."
Xi Honglei held Mu Yunmeng's sleeve in his hand, walked to the soft couch, and sat down first. He casually patted the seat next to him, Xi Honglei looked up at Mu Yunmeng, and said, "Sit."
Mu Yunmeng sat down quietly, still maintaining the state of silence is golden. After Xi Honglei scolded him for being petty in his heart, he took the initiative to find a topic and talk to Mu Yunmeng.
.
"What happened today?" Xi Honglei recalled all the strange behaviors of Lin Yi during the operation, and was a little puzzled. "Did you already know that they would take action today? Lin Yi made arrangements with you before.
How many subordinates?"
"Since I knew that Ran Yunpo had learned about my hiding place, I had guessed that they would take today's action. Lin Yi's people are neither too many nor too few. A total of sixty-seven people were arrested by us.
Hey, as for whether there is any leaked fish, I am not sure yet. What happened today is probably Ran Yunpo's attempt to test the waters. He is not stupid enough to think that he can catch me with this blow. I think
More importantly, I want to test you."
Mu Yunmeng said, looking deeply at Xi Honglei's injured arm. Pulling Xi Honglei's arm, Mu Yunmeng carefully inspected the wound, frowned and asked, "Does it still hurt?"
"It's okay." Xi Honglei shook his head gently, understanding that Mu Yunmeng was mainly here for this matter. He joked: "If you don't come today, maybe the emperor will reward me with some miraculous medicine tomorrow, and also say
Not sure."
"Are you sure his medicine is better than mine?" Mu Yunmeng raised his eyebrows and asked unconvinced.
"Your medicine is the best, is it done?" Xi Honglei felt helpless at Mu Yunmeng's sudden childishness. He obediently let Mu Yunmeng apply the medicine for him, and the two of them snuggled on the soft couch and whispered
He was talking about Ran Yunpo.
"Ran Yunpo is nothing. What Lei'er needs to pay attention to are Shu Rumei and Lin Yi. Ran Yunpo has been just Shu Rumei's puppet since he was a child. In terms of scheming, he is not as good as Ran Yunhao. You have been in the palace for so long,
Has Shu Rumei ever given you any trouble?" Mu Yunmeng asked softly, holding Xi Honglei in her arms.
"Is it possible that they are not looking for it?" When Xi Honglei thought of Shu Rumei, a cold light flashed across her eyes. "Whether she herself or the other concubines in the harem, without Shu Rumei's secret support, no one would have that
You have the guts to come to my place to make trouble. But what surprised me was that Shu Rumei didn’t make things too difficult for me. I always felt that there was something wrong with this. No matter how much Ran Yunpo trusted me, Shu Rumei couldn’t
Don't worry about me. So I have always wondered if she is waiting for the opportunity to do something?" Xi Honglei leaned in Mu Yunmeng's arms, and when she thought of the calm Shu Rumei, she had to be on guard.
"I'm not worried about anything else right now. What I'm worried about is Chen'er being in danger."
Xi Honglei looked in the direction of the bed, her expression serious. No matter how clever Chen'er was, there was no way she could escape Shu Rumei's plan. She couldn't stay by Chen'er's side all the time, and Jinyu was also worried now.
She was so focused on dealing with Mu Yunmeng, how could she take care of everything? She originally wanted to use Jinyu as a chess piece, but now it didn't work out. She made a wrong move, and she couldn't turn back.
When Xi Honglei said the words, Mu Yunmeng did not immediately pick up the conversation. Because Xi Honglei's worry was also Mu Yunmeng's. He knew Shu Rumei, and he also knew that Shu Rumei would never let him go.
Son's.
Both of them fell silent, each thinking about Chen'er. Mu Yunmeng speculated on Shu Rumei's thoughts and what she would do next. After being silent for almost half an hour, Mu Yunmeng
Suddenly he smiled slightly, leaned into Xi Honglei's ear, and whispered a few words.
After Xi Honglei listened to Mu Yunmeng's words carefully, she looked back at him in embarrassment and asked, "Is it possible?"
"Then it depends on whether your son is willing to cooperate." Mu Yunmeng leaned forward and kissed the corners of her lips where the red tears had stopped. He stood up with her in his arms and walked towards the head of the bed. Mu Yunmeng said quietly: "Shu
Rumei will not be inactive forever, I will enter the palace again in a few days, and during this period, Chen'er will be left to you."
Mu Yunmeng put Xi Honglei on the bed and patted her head. "Have a good rest. I'm leaving first."
Mu Yunmeng turned around and left, but when he reached the door, he unexpectedly stopped.
Xi Honglei thought that he still had something to explain, but she didn't expect that Mu Yunmeng would say such words.
"Stay away from that Jinyu, and let your son stay away from him. If he really wants to rob me, then just deal with him before Ran Yunpo does."
"You want to kill him?" Xi Honglei asked in surprise.
"You are reluctant?"
"It's up to you." Xi Honglei could hear the displeasure in Mu Yunmeng's words, and didn't want him to think too much, so she could only say, "I don't care."
Mu Yunmeng smiled with satisfaction and disappeared into Xi Honglei's room. After Xi Honglei made sure that Mu Yunmeng had left completely, he buried his head between his legs, hugged his legs, and fell into deep thought.
Mu Yunmeng could not tolerate the existence of people like Jinyu, but did he really want him to die?
After a restless night, Xi Honglei was called by Shu Rumei not long after she woke up in the morning.
On the way to Shu Rumei's palace, Xi Honglei thought about Shu Rumei's purpose of looking for her today. She and Mu Yunmeng discussed and guessed Shu Rumei's thoughts last night. I wonder if they could guess correctly.
a bit?
Xi Honglei walked into the room, looked at Shu Rumei who was joking with Xi Hongli, and paused.
"Honglei is here, come and sit." Shu Rumei looked at Xi Honglei with a smile and motioned for her to sit next to him.
Shu Rumei's proactive show of kindness made Xi Honglei be more vigilant. Xi Honglei glanced at Xi Hongli first, nodded, and after saying hello, Xi Honglei walked over and sat down next to Shu Rumei.
opposite.
"I wonder if the Queen Mother came to Honglei for something important?"
"If the Ai family has nothing important to do, why can't they come to you?" Shu Rumei spit out the grape seeds in her mouth carelessly, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief gracefully, looked sideways and held back her red tears, and asked with a smile at the corner of her mouth.
road.
"Honglei doesn't mean that. I just feel that the Queen Mother is not light-hearted compared to the Emperor. She has to care about the Emperor's health and also deal with the affairs of the harem. She probably doesn't have time to meet people like me."
"Who is this kind of person like you? The Aijia want to hear about it."
"I am naturally someone who will displease the Queen Mother. I know very well whether Hong Lei has the ability to make the Queen Mother happy, so the Queen Mother does not need to say anything to comfort me."
