Chapter 31 Peasant Girl vs. Princess of the Former Dynasty (6)

"Come out, girl. The officers and soldiers are all good people." Shi Yi's father shouted outside the room.

"Dad, my daughter will come out right away." Lin Zhi deliberately pinched her throat and walked out in small steps.

Shi Yi's father coming home at this time was like a divine help to Lin Zhi. In addition, Lin Zhi thought that her story was flawless, and she would definitely be able to get away with it with her unique disguise skills. But when she heard the voice in the room, she knew it was Chen Mu. Seeing an old friend in this situation, she felt complicated. She was not sure whether he would let her go.

"Raise your head." Chen Mu looked at the woman in front of him steadily. With just one glance, he recognized her.

"The official suddenly visited, are you going to rest here?" Lin Zhi was confused by Chen Mu's complicated look. She couldn't guess whether the other party recognized her. Or if he recognized her, would he take her away.

"Bring the portrait here." Chen Mu was still as calm and self-controlled as before, and ordered his subordinates.

Shi Yi, who was keeping a low profile at the side, obviously caught the fluctuation in his eyes. The two of them knew each other before.

The subordinate unfolded the scroll very tactfully. The woman in the portrait was graceful and charming, and it was obvious that she was a rare beauty at first glance, but the woman in front of him had a sallow complexion, crooked eyebrows and drooping eyes, and she looked uncomfortable no matter how he looked at her.

The two people's appearances were completely different, and it was obvious that they were not the same person.

Shi Yi's father couldn't take his eyes off the portrait.

Because when he saw the woman in front of him, she looked exactly like the person in the portrait.

He was worried that the woman in front of him had done something bad and implicated their family. Especially implicated Shi Yi.

His eyes involuntarily ran to Shi Yi.

"It's not the same person." Chen Mu made a light judgment, "Search the others, search to see if there are other people in this house."

"No, except for the old woman who went up the mountain to dig yam, there is no one else in the house." Shi Yi's father explained at the side.

"Keep searching, don't stop." Chen Mu didn't take the words of a rural villager to heart, "Others go to other households in the village to search. If you see someone who looks like the woman in the portrait, bring her back."

"Yes, General." The other officers and soldiers took the portrait and left.

Shi Yi's mother, who happened to come back, saw her precious sweetheart tied up and rushed over.

"Don't move." The officer's knife was already on her neck.

"I won't move, I won't move." Shi Yi's mother hugged her daughter like an old hen protecting her food.

"Mom, I'm fine." Shi Yi, who felt the preciousness of family affection, rubbed her cheek obediently.

"Don't think that you can be lawless when you are an official. We ordinary people don't break the law or do bad things, and it's not your turn to control us." Shi Yi's mother hugged her life and scolded Chen Mu.

She didn't care whether the man was a high-ranking official or a low-ranking official. She only knew that her daughter couldn't bear any grievances if she didn't do bad things.

"Shut up." Chen Mu glared at her fiercely.

He usually hated these rural women the most. They had no laws and no government, and they lived their whole lives in a muddle and did nothing.

"Sir, please let my sister go." After pondering for a long time, Lin Zhi finally spoke.

"Sister?" Shi Yi's mother looked at the strange woman who appeared in front of her, her eyes full of confusion.

"Where did she come from?" She looked at her husband and asked.

"This is my illegitimate daughter from abroad." Shi Yi's father wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and didn't dare to look directly at his wife.

"Don't talk too much. Untie this child." Chen Mu glared at his father.

Shi Yi's mother was afraid of the knives in their hands, and didn't dare to speak anymore, but just hugged her daughter tighter.

"Daddy, mother." As soon as Shi Yi was free, he immediately threw himself into the arms of his relatives.

"Come in with me. The others stay outside." Chen Mu pointed at Lin Zhi who had disguised himself.

What Chen Mu didn't know was that his subordinates looked at the two of them entering the house, and their inner thoughts about his integrity had been shattered.

"I can understand, I can understand." The subordinate who had unfolded the scroll before explained for his superior.

They had been traveling for a long time, and their serious superior was also a man, and he also needed to cool down.

"You..." Chen Mu looked at the "empty" house, not knowing what to say to the person in front of him.

"What are you going to do with me." Knowing that he was recognized, Lin Zhi no longer hid.

"I didn't mean to be your enemy." Chen Mu touched the jade pendant on his chest, "This is what you gave me. It saved my life on the battlefield. Now I give it back to you."

"I want you to let me go." Lin Zhi didn't take the jade pendant from his hand.

She only knew that this was her best chance. The best "bargaining" opportunity. Because the man in front of her still remembered the old feelings.

"You are not safe here. The refugees along the way showed us the way." Chen Mu took back the jade pendant silently and began to explain why he found this place.

"Are you going to take me back to win credit?" Lin Zhi tore off the makeup on her face, revealing a clean and attractive face.

"I..." Chen Mu didn't know how to answer to satisfy her, because he knew that since the moment he betrayed Gui Dynasty, she would no longer believe in him.

"Chen Mu, you owe me." Lin Zhi raised her slender eyebrows, held his face with both hands, stared at him almost like a lover, and continued to repeat: "Chen Mu, you owe me."

"I know I'm sorry for you." Chen Mu didn't look at her, but moved his eyes away.

"If you really feel sorry for me, just let me go." Lin Zhi got closer to him, not hiding the ambition and desire in her eyes at all, "Chen Mu, you know, I can't give up my hatred so easily. The scene of my father's tragic death in front of me, I will never forget it in my life. I will use the blood of the Great Yuan Emperor to sacrifice in front of my father's tomb."

Chen Mu loved her like this. She was vigorous and ambitious.

For the first time since he entered the room, he set his eyes on her.

"Lin Zhi, give up. The Great Yuan Emperor is not as stupid as you think."

"But I am confident that I can succeed." Lin Zhi has never doubted her beauty. This is also her greatest asset.

"You are really crazy." Chen Mu uttered these words in a low and hoarse throat.

"Chen Mu, help me." Lin Zhi pinched his chin and kissed him lightly, "As long as I enter the palace, I will be yours."

Chen Mu did not move and let her lick him.
