Fu Yunchen looked at her in surprise, "How did you know?"
Mu Run said, "That's just a guess. With the old emperor critically ill, all the factions in the court are bound to be restless. In addition, the Northern Jin Dynasty was defeated, ceded territory to the Wu Kingdom, and was forced to pay silver. They couldn't even protect their princess. I don't know how many people are dissatisfied with the old emperor. If he doesn't survive this time, and he has no sons, who will inherit the throne?"
"Continue." Fu Yunchen sat down next to her, leaning against the carriage window, his long legs stretched out, straight and slender.
Mu Run looked at his long legs, which were even more beautiful than those of a supermodel, as well as his handsome and delicate face, and his beautiful, almost bewitching, heterochromatic eyes. She closed her eyes and said, "I'm not going to talk about it anymore, I'm tired."
Fu Yunchen reached out and pulled her into his arms.
Because her body suddenly lost control, Mu Run let out a small cry of surprise, and then fell into an embrace full of familiar sandalwood fragrance. She pouted and struggled a couple of times to no avail, then adjusted her position and lay down on a human-shaped cushion.
I must say, it's quite comfortable.
"Your trip to the palace was less about showing loyalty and more about stirring up trouble. I don't know what others did on this trip to the palace, but you certainly did a lot of bad things." Mu Run raised her hand to cover her mouth and yawned, looking sleepy.
How could a bandit, especially an ambitious bandit leader, possibly be loyal to the imperial power? The more chaotic the situation, the more advantageous it would be for him to do as he pleased.
Fu Yunchen looked at her, his expression no longer relaxed as before, his deep eyes fixed on her.
In the end, Mu Run couldn't resist the call of sleep and drifted off to sleep...
The carriage stopped, and Qiao Dongzi whispered to Fu Yunchen, "Sir, we've arrived."
"Wait a little longer." Fu Yunchen held the woman in his arms and picked up a book that Mu Run had brought to the carriage.
His eyes weren't just heterochromatic; he could also see in the dark. In the dimly lit carriage, Mu Run would never have been able to see the contents of the book, but Fu Yunchen could see it clearly.
The cover read "ledger," but inside was a script he didn't recognize.
Based on the other texts, it can be inferred that it is about counting.
"Just who are you?" Fu Yunchen looked at the woman in his arms and closed the ledger in his hand.
...
'Gurgle~' Mu Run's stomach growled, and it ached in waves. Even if she wanted to continue sleeping, her body wouldn't allow her to continue going hungry.
I opened my eyes, my stomach growling with hunger, and the first thing I saw was a hazy mist. I was on a boat, and I could hear the rushing water all around me... My brain, which had just woken up, instantly went blank!
She had absolutely no idea where she was. Did such a place even exist in the capital?
The man punting the boat wore a cat-face mask, a plain black robe, and a chain-like belt around his waist, resembling a ghostly messenger.
"Am I dead again?" Mu Run asked subconsciously.
Fu Yunchen listened to her words... again?
"Yes, I'm on my way to the underworld." The voice held a hint of a smile.
"You!" Mu Run was startled back to reality upon hearing Fu Yunchen's familiar voice. She glared at him for a while before pouting and saying, "I'm not going."
"Hehe." Fu Yunchen's laughter deepened. "I'll take you to eat. There's a restaurant called River God Restaurant that's located on a boat. It's only open on the fifth day of the month, and today is the fifteenth. It's a pity it's cloudy, otherwise we could have enjoyed the moon."
