As he spoke, he pricked Mu Yunhuan's body with a silver needle a few times, and Mu Yunhuan woke up faintly. She exhaled a breath and looked at the person in front of her, her mind still a little unclear.
Mu Yun'an asked: "Second sister, what do you think?"
Mu Yunhuan looked at Mu Yun'an and then remembered what happened. She woke up suddenly and suddenly held Mu Yun'an's hand and said: "Yan Yan, someone wants to harm me."
Mu Yun'an's expression changed when he heard this: "Do you know who it is?"
Mu Yunhuan shook his head: "The man pushed me behind my back. I didn't see clearly who it was. By the way, who saved me?"
Mu Yun'an didn't want to hide anything from her, so she said truthfully: "It's cousin Ze Fang."
Mu Yunhuan was startled. She was stunned for a moment before reacting and murmured: "It's him."
Mu Yun'an added: "Prince Jing was also there at that time. In order to preserve your reputation, cousin Ze Fang asked His Highness King Jing to conceal it on your behalf. So if anyone asks, he will say that His Highness King Jing saved you, did you know that?"
Mu Yunhuan's eyes were red and she nodded. She thought she would never have anything to do with Wang Zefang in this life, but she didn't expect him to save her again. This was not the first time.
She has not repaid the last life-saving grace and now she owes another debt. How should she repay it?
...
Qionglin Garden.
Xiao Chengyi was playing chess with Xuan Du, and Yuan Hao had gone back to rest early because he was too drunk. Only the new scholars were left chatting and laughing in Qionglin Garden.
Xuan Du has not left the palace since he was named a national master. He and Xiao Chengyi have not seen each other for many days. Now that they have the opportunity, they do not shy away from suspicion and sit together to talk while playing chess.
Just as he was talking, he saw Yuan Shuolin walking over.
He sat down and watched the two of them playing chess, and whispered: "Miss Mu fell into the lake just now and was rescued by Wang Zefang. I have concealed this matter.
I know that Wang Zefang and Miss Mu Er are in love with each other and are willing to make it happen. I wonder if the number one scholar has any countermeasures to help me break off this engagement?"
Xiao Chengyi said in a calm voice: "Do you think of me as a god? You come to me for everything?"
Yuan Shuolin smiled and said: "Don't think I don't know. Today, you, Jing Xuan and the Imperial Master joined forces to defeat the father's intention of granting a marriage. Am I right?"
He had known about his father's attempt to recruit Xiao Chengyi as his son-in-law for a long time, and he also sent the news to Xiao Chengyi. As a result, Xiao Chengyi directly rejected the marriage today without waiting for his father to speak, but he was so open-minded.
Cleared the horizon.
When it comes to strategic thinking, no one can compare with Xiao Chengyi.
Xiao Chengyi was noncommittal. He planned what happened today. As the saying goes, strike first to gain the upper hand. He used Yan Jingxuan's words to bring out the fact that he had an engagement, catching Yuan Hao off guard.
This is better than Yuan Hao's decree granting marriage and Yuan Hao rejecting the marriage.
"So, the prince is threatening me?"
Xiao Chengyi asked Yuan Shuolin in a joking tone.
Yuan Shuo said: "I don't dare. You have helped me so many times, so what if you help me again? Do you really want me to marry Mu Yunhuan?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "It's not that I don't want to help you, it's that I don't want to take advantage of Wang Zefang."
