After hearing this, Qian Jiujiu made an excuse: "Then it's over. Since you won't regret it, there's no need to rush. Besides, you're in danger now."

"The palace is closed to visitors, which means it will be ruined soon. But I am busy doing business over there. Who can I hide this from? If your enemies are curious about the palace."

"What should I do if an assassin comes in? I don't like being assassinated."

Mu Yexiao's mouth twitched a few times. Isn't this imagination a little too good? However, from the entrance of a shopkeeper, he thought of being assassinated by an assassin.

You have such an amazing imagination: "As long as you are not in a hurry, just let that person come back in a month. By the way, what did you bring? It smells so good."

Qian Jiujiu then noticed the bone soup she had brought in: "Bone soup, come and drink it quickly, otherwise you won't be able to drink it if it gets cold. It's good for your bone recovery."

Mu Yexiao didn't say anything when he heard this. He just took the drink and drank it. Could this month pass so peacefully? Obviously, this was impossible.

Upon hearing the news that Mu Yexiao was seriously ill and dying, in addition to the two people in the palace taking action, the third prince Mu Yesheng also became curious.

That afternoon, he went directly to the Shangshu Mansion and looked at Shangshu Qian: "What's going on? Is he really going to die, or is it fake?"

Minister Qian was embarrassed. Qian Jiujiu and she did not have a very good relationship. Thinking of this, he could only look at the Third Prince apologetically: "Third Prince, I'm sorry, I didn't know."

The Third Prince glanced at Minister Qian with dissatisfaction: "If you don't know, go check it out. You can't say that it's closed to visitors, and people can't come out. Think of a way to get Qian Jiujiu back."

Shangshu Qian felt even more embarrassed, because Qian Jiujiu's only concern in the Shangshu Mansion was Concubine Wan. However, because of the two maids Qingyu and Qinglian, they could not interfere in Concubine Wan's life at all.

Looking at the Third Prince: "Third Prince, why don't we send someone to sneak into the palace to check it out."

The third prince snorted coldly: "You make it sound easy, don't you think about it? If it were this time, and Prince Xiao's Palace was so close, would it be your turn to come up with this idea?"

Minister Qian's face was a little ugly, and he glanced at the Third Prince: "Don't worry, Third Prince, in a few days, I will definitely think of a way to let Qian Jiujiu, the unfilial daughter, come back."

The Third Prince snorted coldly, and was satisfied. After that, he turned away. Thinking of Qian Jiujiu, the Third Prince couldn't help but frowned. This woman was a woman beyond his expectations.

Qian Yuge said that she was an illiterate woman, but she was shining brightly in the palace last time. Thinking of Qian Yuge, the Third Prince felt depressed.

He hadn't seen Qian Yuge now, probably because Qian Yuge felt that she had no face to see him, so she avoided him every time. But he had heard about it.

Qian Yuge's face was covered with horrible pimples, which made even the imperial physician he sent feel sick. Last time, he even had the nerve to go see his mother, but fortunately, he was sent away.

In this way, Qian Yuge is not as good as Qian Jiujiu. If I had known this earlier, I would not have listened to Qian Yuge's opinion. It is said that Qian Jiujiu still has some feelings for him.

Thinking of this, the Third Prince suddenly felt that he had come up with a good idea. Since Qian Jiujiu was interested in him, how could he justify her affection if he didn't do something

Qian Jiujiu had no idea that the Third Prince had set his sights on her this time. At this moment, she was chatting with Mu Yexiao, because Mu Yexiao could only lie in bed.

So Qian Jiujiu was trying to entertain him by telling him stories.

What he was talking about was the story of Sun Tzu's Art of War. Mu Yexiao couldn't help but be mesmerized by it. He looked at Qian Jiujiu and said, "Jiu'er, did all this really happen, or are they just stories?"

"Why do I feel like this isn't just a story?"

Qian Jiujiu chuckled. He just told a story about a beauty trap. Blinking his eyes, he said, "Of course it's a story. Don't you think about it? It's not a story. If there is such a beauty."

"How could I not know? You know, Qian Yuge is the most beautiful woman in Kyoto, and the beauties in the Beauty Trap are ten times more beautiful than her!"

After he finished speaking, he saw Mu Yexiao looking at him with a half-smile. Qian Jiujiu coughed twice and said, "Is there anything wrong with looking at me like this?"

Mu Yexiao raised the corners of his lips: "How many little stories like this are there?"

Uh! Qian Jiujiu was stunned for a moment and answered honestly: "Thirty-Six Stratagems."

Mu Yexiao smiled: "Okay, then you can tell me a story every day. If there are any extra ones, you can tell them and I will write them. How about that?"

Qian Jiujiu looked at Mu Yexiao and said, "Are you too idle? You actually want to rewrite the Thirty-Six Stratagems? Then I will teach you one now."

Mu Yexiao was willing to do this: "Okay, what do you want to teach me?"

Qian Jiujiu said with a fake smile: "Of the thirty-six strategies, running away is the best one. Goodbye."

After saying that, Qian Jiujiu walked out of the room, leaving Mu Yexiao in shock, and then heard Mu Yexiao's hearty laughter coming from inside the room.

Qian Jiujiu was speechless. What was there to be so happy about? It was simply inexplicable. After coming out, Qian Jiujiu found Nanfeng. As for Dongchen, he had to stay by Mu Yexiao's side 24 hours a day.

"Nanfeng, go and do something and come back."

As she spoke, Qian Jiujiu drew a small coffee table on the paper, so that Mu Yexiao could write while sitting on the bed, which was much more convenient.

When Mu Yexiao saw the small coffee table, he couldn't help but laugh. His Jiuer was indeed a kind and considerate girl, and most importantly, she was so smart.

Such a good woman is his. At this moment, Mu Yexiao feels grateful to the Third Prince and Qian Yuge. It was they who brought such a good Qian Jiujiu to him.

Qian Jiujiu looked at Mu Yexiao staring at the coffee table in a daze and couldn't help but wonder. She took Mu Yexiao's pulse first. Three days had passed and he had recovered well, but what was the reason for this smug look on his face

He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Mu Yexiao: "What are you laughing at? Is there something wrong with this coffee table?"

Mu Yexiao finally came back to his senses, looked at Qian Jiujiu, and blinked at her. Qian Jiujiu immediately felt that she was being pointed out and rolled her eyes at Mu Yexiao.

"Don't wink at me anymore."

Mu Yexiao laughed immediately: "Why? Is it because you think I'm too handsome and you can't resist my charm?"

Qian Jiujiu looked at Mu Yexiao helplessly: "You are so beautiful, you are so charming, drink the soup quickly."

Mu Yexiao took the bowl that Qian Jiujiu brought over and drank it directly. At this moment, the butler outside suddenly came in: "Princess, Qingyu is back outside."

Qingyu is back? Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao looked at each other. Why did Qingyu come back at this time? Shouldn't she be in the Shangshu Mansion taking care of Aunt Wan

Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu and said, "Go meet her."

Qian Jiujiu stood up all of a sudden and wanted to walk out, but then turned back and looked at Mu Yexiao: "Lie down first. If you pretend to be sick, you have to act more realistically."

Mu Yexiao was stunned. Qingyu was his. It was impossible for her to betray him. However, Qian Jiujiu looked very serious, so Mu Yexiao just followed her. Qian Jiujiu then looked at the housekeeper.

"Why don't you bring Qingyu in and see what's wrong with her?"

As expected, the housekeeper brought Qingyu in very quickly. As soon as Qingyu came in, she started crying: "Princess, I am sorry for you. I did not take good care of Aunt Wan. Aunt Wan is dying."

Qian Jiujiu was stunned and just stared at Qingyu stupidly, but one of her hands was tightly grasping Mu Yexiao's hand, preventing Mu Yexiao from moving. Qingyu looked at Qian Jiujiu without moving.

Seeing Qian Jiujiu's shocked expression, she hardened her heart and continued, "It's all because of my uselessness that Madam Qian found another opportunity to beat Aunt Wan."

"Mrs. Wan is weak and I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on for a few more days. Princess, do you want to go back and see Mrs. Wan?"

Qian Jiujiu seemed to have finally come to her senses. She turned to look at Mu Yexiao, then at Qingyu: "Qingyu, you go back first. I'll find a chance to go back to the Shangshu Mansion tomorrow."

When Qingyu heard Qian Jiujiu's words, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared. She thought no one saw it, but she didn't know that Qian Jiujiu had been looking at her since she came in.

She never took her eyes off Qingyu: "Then Princess, I will go back first."

Qian Jiujiu hummed: "Butler, take her away."

After Qingyu left, Mu Yexiao spoke up: "Jiujiu, if you are worried, find a chance to go back and take a look today."

Qian Jiujiu rolled her eyes at Mu Yexiao: "She is not Qingyu."

Mu Yexiao was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Qian Jiujiu rolled his eyes and said, "I will tell you another story today, what is stealing and replacing the pillars."

After Qian Jiujiu told the story of replacing one thing with another, Mu Yexiao understood it all at once, but she still looked at Qian Jiujiu with some confusion.

"How do you know that the jade just now was not jade, but a fake one?"

Qian Jiujiu rolled his eyes again: "Because Qingyu is yours. When you said you were so sick that you closed the door to visitors, what would your people do?"

"I will definitely solve this problem even if I have to die, instead of bothering you with the problem. If Dongchen were in such a situation, what would he do?"

Dongchen had been listening on the side. When he heard this question, he answered very straightforwardly: "Princess, if it was my subordinate, I would choose to conceal it."

"When everything is over, I will apologize to you and the prince."

Qian Jiujiu snorted and looked at Dongchen: "I will never let you help me do things in the future."

Now it was Dongchen's turn to be embarrassed, standing there at a loss. Mu Yexiao, on the other hand, was looking at Qian Jiujiu. Did Qian Jiujiu know this all along

He also wanted his people and his affairs to invade Qian Jiujiu's heart unconsciously. Now it seems that Qian Jiujiu has always been very clear in her heart.

I'm afraid Hong Ling hasn't gained her trust...
