Just as Murong Qingyun was wandering around Taixu, Murong Xiaoxiao asked, "Yan'er, I see you look very rosy-cheeked. Is there some good news? Do you have a boyfriend?"
Without waiting for Murong Yan to answer, Murong Xiao turned to look at Murong Qingyun: "Brother, I entrusted Yan'er to you. Has she been feeling romantically attracted to someone lately?"
Murong Xiao's words caused the two who had been secretly plotting to fall silent. Murong Qingyun, in particular, even had a slightly distorted expression after hearing Murong Xiao's question.
That woman had actually taken advantage of him being drunk and... How could he face Xiao'er? How could he confess to her?
What annoyed him most was that he had clearly sworn off having anything to do with this woman, but for some reason, every once in a while, he would want her. In the end, he attributed this to the normal catharsis of his first experience in the world.
But the problem is, he had clearly promised Xiao'er that she would be his only wife in this life, but now he was having sex with her best sister frequently. How could he face Xiao'er?
"What's the matter?" Murong Xiao looked at the two of them who were suddenly awkward, and asked, "I guess you guessed it right. Who... are you with?" Murong approached Murong Yan with a smile. The more awkward the other person was, the happier she was.
Seeing this, Mr. Jing in the back dimmed his eyes slightly and nodded, thinking about his own problem.
"Mr. Jing."
Mr. Jing, who was thinking with his head down, immediately looked up when he heard his name, clasped his fists towards Murong Xiao and said, "Miss, how are you?"
"I'm fine. How's Mr. Jing?"
"Thank you for your concern, Miss. Jing, everything is fine."
Murong Xiao smiled slightly, his expression calmed down, and then he looked away and continued to follow behind without saying anything.
Because Murong Xiao immediately changed the subject, the two of them looked a little better.
Coming to Murong Qingyun and Murong Yan, he deliberately separated Murong Yan and Murong Qingyun and asked in a low voice, "Qingyun, how are you doing recently? Are you okay?"
Murong Qingyun was instantly overjoyed to receive Murong Xiao's special care.
"I'm fine! Xiao'er, how about you? Did he give you any trouble? Did he treat you badly?"
"I'm...fine too. He didn't give me any trouble."
Murong Xiao was telling the truth, but Murong Qingyun felt differently when he heard it.
"Xiao'er, I'm sorry."
"What nonsense are you talking about? I told you I'm fine. Now that I've done this, don't say sorry anymore. I did it willingly."
Murong Qingyun no longer worried about this issue. He just wanted to get things settled quickly. First, he had to kill those princes, then the emperor, and then everything would be over.
"Have you caught the assassin this time?"
"We have evidence of Qian Yeyao's guilt, but Qian Yechen hasn't been caught yet."
"It doesn't matter. I will have my father severely punish Qian Yeyao. This time, he will definitely not be able to recover."
"Yeah." Murong smiled and nodded.
In fact, they reaped a lot of rewards this time, even getting the evidence of Qian Yechen. However, the snow lotus will take two months to get, and there is no chance to get the black jade grass yet, so Qian Yeyao and Qian Yechen still have to use them to suppress Murong Qingyu, so they are not planning to touch these two for the time being.
