"You don't like me either. If I leave, you will be very happy."
Wen Muchen's clear voice was cold, revealing a hint of grievance that seemed to be pretending to be free and easy.
“No, my king…”
"King, I'm a little tired. I'll take my leave first."
Wen Muchen interrupted Ying Xixi's explanation, bowed to her, and turned to leave.
Lin Lang looked at Ying Xixi anxiously, then at his own husband Wang, and finally chased after him and helped Wen Muchen leave.
Ying Xixi sighed and rubbed her brows, "Wen Muchen is angry."
"My Lord Wang was indeed angry. I'm sorry, my Lord Wang, but I should have stopped him from entering the courtyard.
But at that time, Mr. Wang said that he had made some pastries for you personally and wanted to send them to you to try.
I did not stop Wang Fu...
Please punish me, my king!"
Sun Lin apologized and knelt on the ground with his head lowered.
“He made his own pastries…”
Ying Xixi turned her head with a complicated expression and looked at the pastries scattered on the ground.
Whether Wen Muchen did it sincerely for her or just to get closer to her, it was his intention.
But now my heart is falling to the ground...
"It's none of your business. No need to apologize. Just leave."
After Ying Xixi finished speaking, she walked over to the food box, squatted down, picked up the pastries, put them back into the food box, and took them into the house.
These pastries looked good. Ying Xixi cut off the dusty parts and tasted them. They tasted surprisingly good.
Were these really made by Wen Muchen himself?
[Yes, host, this system saw the male protagonist do it with my own eyes! ]
The system's baby voice answered at the right time.
[Host, I didn't expect you to actually eat the male protagonist's pastries. ]
"After all, he made it himself. No matter what his purpose was, I should have a taste of it."
Ying Xixi's appetite was whetted, and she finished all the pastries.
After drinking some tea, she felt a little full.
"System, have the results of my investigation revealed why Wen Muchen wanted to kill me?
Because the Beitong Kingdom launched a war, I, as the prince of the Silver Phoenix Dynasty, led my soldiers to fight and defeated the Beitong Kingdom.
The war also harmed the people on the border between the two countries and caused the death of Wen Muchen's family.
Wen Muchen blamed me for the death of his family, so he wanted to kill me for revenge."
Ying Xixi asked the system in her heart.
[No, host. As the male protagonist of this dimension, Wen Muchen must understand the harm that war causes to the people.
You will also understand that the war started by Beitong Kingdom has nothing to do with you.
Instead of blaming you for the death of his family, he would rather think that everything was caused by the emperor of Beitong.
After all, it was the Emperor of Beitong who first provoked the war.
This is not the truth behind Wen Muchen's intention to kill you for revenge. Please investigate and discover the specific truth.]
The system disappeared after saying this.
Ying Xixi clicked her tongue and supported her chin.
It's rare that the system didn't speak in vain this time.
Okay, let’s continue to see how the plot develops.
Ying Xixi was full and a little sleepy, so she just took a nap.
Sun Lin originally thought that his master would go to Wang Fu to explain when he saw that his master ate the cakes made by Wang Fu that fell on the ground without any hesitation. However, in the blink of an eye, he saw his master lying on the bed and snoring.
Sun Lin: “???”
Not to mention that Wang Fu couldn't figure out what Wang was thinking.
Even her personal attendant was confused.
Ying Xixi slept until dinner time in the evening.
When she woke up and felt hungry, she called Sun Lin and went to Wen Muchen's yard, planning to have dinner with Wen Muchen tonight.
Today, Wen Muchen got up and made some pastries and sent them to her yard.
I don’t know how the wound on his back is recovering.
Just in time to check on his wound tonight.
By the way, listen to Wen Muchen's inner thoughts and see if he will mutter what he thinks during the day.
Ying Xixi had a good plan, but she didn't expect that Wen Muchen, who always greeted her with a smile on the surface, would actually give her the cold shoulder!
"Wang, your wife is not feeling well and has gone to bed. She has already had dinner a little early. Please go back."
Lin Lang came out of the room, closed the door and reported this.
Ying Xixi: “???”
"Is Wen Muchen feeling unwell? Have you called the court doctor to see him?"
Lin Lang: "Reporting to the king, the king is just tired. The wound on his back is fine, so I did not bother to send the court doctor."
"Then I will go in and see him."
Ying Xixi raised her foot to push the door open and go in, but was stopped by Lin Lang.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. The king said before he went to bed that he did not want anyone to disturb him."
Ying Xixi: “….”
Anyone?
I guess it's just her.
She was the only one in this mansion who would come to see Wen Muchen.
Fine, fine, if you don’t let her in, then don’t let her in. You actually use the word “anyone” as an excuse.
This was the first time that Ying Xixi was turned down by Wen Muchen.
It seems that Wen Muchen is really angry.
Ying Xixi was speechless for a moment.
"Okay, then when the prince wakes up, you come and tell me."
After Ying Xixi finished speaking, she turned around and went back with Sun Lin.
Lin Lang watched Wang leave, sighed, and went into the house.
Wen Muchen, who had fallen asleep in his mouth, was now lying on the bed with his eyes open, not feeling sleepy at all.
"The king left?"
He asked Lin Lang.
"Yes, I followed your instructions and asked the king to leave."
After Lin Lang finished speaking, he looked at his husband Wang who was obviously unhappy and couldn't help asking.
"My Lord, since you also want to see the king, and the king has come here on his own initiative, why don't you see her?"
Wen Muchen looked out the window and said, "Because I don't know what expression I should use to face the king."
He was clearly looking for an opportunity to kill Wang to avenge his family.
He also knew very well that all the obsession and love he showed for the king on the surface were fake.
He acted out these things deliberately to confuse the king and let him gradually become aware of his presence in the king's mind, so that he could get close to the king and have more opportunities to assassinate him.
He had thought about using more direct methods, such as hiring someone to assassinate or poisoning the king.
But he had no power, no influence, and no connections in the Silver Phoenix Dynasty, so he couldn't assassinate the king at all.
As for poisoning, it is even more impossible. There are secret guards everywhere in this palace, and everything the king eats will be tested for poison.
He couldn't do it either.
The only thing he could do was to use his life-saving grace to marry the king and become his husband.
This is to find the most suitable opportunity to assassinate the king and for him to escape smoothly after the assassination.
He has always been determined to achieve this goal.
But recently, he found himself wavering.
If he hadn't noticed anything during his daily interactions with Wang some time ago.
