Xiao Huaizheng brought Mu Wenyan to the Mu Mansion and met Mu Lixin.
The moment he saw Mu Wenyan, Mu Lixin seemed very unfamiliar, but when he saw Xiao Huaizheng, his pupils constricted for a moment, and then he slowly walked forward.
Mu Wenyan hugged his thighs and shouted, "Dad."
Mu Lixin finally came back to his senses, patted his shoulder and said, "You are Wen Yan, right?"
Mu Wenyan asked curiously, "Who else could it be if not me?"
Mu Lixin's mouth twitched as he stepped forward to greet Xiao Huaizheng.
"Your humble servant pays respect to His Royal Highness Prince Jing."
Xiao Huaizheng asked, "I was still a child when the general left the capital. Did I meet the general then?"
Mu Lixin said, "I did see it then, but Your Highness has forgotten it."
"However, I also know that Wen Yan is now following His Highness, so I made some guesses. I hope Your Highness will not be offended."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Huaizheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Is that so? I was shocked. I thought the general was not in the capital, but he has so many eyes and ears that he knows everything about the capital."
Mu Lixin smiled awkwardly: "How could that be?"
But his hands were still clenched and he still looked nervous.
Xiao Huaizheng did not continue to test him. He gave Mu Wenyan a few words of advice and left.
After leaving the general's mansion, he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, as if everything was under control.
Yuan Huaizhi poked his head out of his sleeve and said, "We're taking a risky tactic this time. It's easy to be exposed."
Xiao Huaizheng said: "It won't be exposed."
Yuan Huaizhi asked, "Why are you so sure, Your Highness?"
Xiao Huaizheng said, "Because I just tested him, he seemed very anxious. This proves that he is also worried about being exposed. After all, Mu Lixin has a family. His family knows best whether a person is genuine or not."
"He will definitely be unable to hold back. As long as he moves, we will win."
Yuan Huaizhi took a long breath. If only it were like this. He really wanted to find another chance to be a human being and didn't want to be a mouse anymore.
I was almost caught by a tabby cat yesterday, but luckily he could speak human language and escaped.
But he was so frightened by the tabby cat that he turned his head and ran into a tree. He hasn't recovered yet and looks like he has seen a ghost.
Xiao Huai was walking when he suddenly stopped.
Yuan Huaizhi asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong?"
Xiao Huaizheng said: "I saw... my father."
Yuan Huaizhi: "..." Your father? Isn't that the emperor?
"Where is it?"
Xiao Huaizheng frowned: "He's sneaking around. Judging from the direction, it should be Prince Ding's Mansion."
"Let's go and take a look."
…
When Xiao Jingyun returned to the palace, before he even stepped through the gate, Bai Changshi hurried out to stop him.
"My Lord, you are back."
Xiao Jingyun asked, "What's wrong? Did the princess go back to her parents' home?"
Bai Changshi frowned: "It's even more serious than that."
"Your Highness, please don't take this lightly. What I'm about to say concerns your lifelong happiness."
Xiao Jingyun looked at him strangely.
Bai Changshi sighed, "Mr. Yan, it's obvious that he likes the princess. How can you keep him in the mansion?"
"What if... when you're not home, he takes the opportunity to show his affection to the princess?"
"I've already asked the construction crew to raise the walls on both sides. If Mr. Yan asks, just evade the question and say you don't know. It was all done by me."
"Anyway, we should fight for what we should fight for and block what we should block. We can't make room for our love rival, right?"
Xiao Jingyun said: "You are a loyal person."
"But... I don't plan to live in the mansion. I will take the princess to the suburbs for a walk, relax, and stay in the palace for a few days."
"At Mr. Yan's place, just treat him as a guest. Don't be petty and do these things. He knows everything."
"Do you understand?"
Bai Changshi opened his mouth and was speechless.
It took a while for him to find his voice again: "So, have you been planning this from the beginning?"
Xiao Jingyun smiled: "What do you think?"
Bai Changshi: "..." I said I am just a fool!
It’s all in vain!
Oh!
Lin Yue didn't know what Xiao Jingyun was planning, but when she heard that there were hot springs in the palace and the scenery was pleasant, she was still tempted.
As for the suburbs, Xiao Jingyun said that he would go and take a look, maybe he could accumulate merit.
After all, there is no difference between the suburbs and the countryside, and many people in the countryside need help.
Lin Yue asked, "If we leave, what will happen to Yan Shu and Xiao Man?"
Xiao Jingyun said: "There are servants to entertain you, don't worry."
"Besides, they are here to experience life. Yan Shu can handle it. Xiao Man is still very new to the palace. Taking her away at this time would be like a quick tour, which would not be good for her character."
"Why don't you have more fun, and Xiaoman can be more comfortable too. When we meet again, maybe we'll both gain something."
Lin Yue had already decided to go, and asked carefully, "So it's just the two of us?"
Xiao Jingyun said: "Huai Luo and his wife definitely can't go. His wife has started labor. If everything goes well, we will receive good news tonight."
"As for the rest of the younger generations, they can go if they want. When I left the palace, I sent a message to Qing Yi. He should be going too."
Lin Yue didn't expect that Yu Qingqing would give birth so soon.
Calculating the date, it should be about half a month in advance.
"Why don't I go see Qingqing? We'll go to the palace after she gives birth safely."
Xiao Jingyun said: "Okay, then wait a moment, I'll go say goodbye to Yan Shu."
Lin Yue was worried about Yu Qingqing's safety, so she said, "It's already this time, stop being so hypocritical, just let Bai Changshi tell him."
