Empress can't eat enough

Chapter 36: No Home at Night
The next thing will become simple.With the identity of King Huan, Miao Fang quickly presented the map.

As for the money of Wei Yingning and Ah Man, he secretly hid it between his sleeve pockets and had no intention of returning it.

Ah Man wanted to ask her back, but Wei Yingning shook his head lightly at her and stopped her.She still didn't forget to kindly tell Miao Fang: "Let's expose the Tutu matter, don't mention it to anyone again, be careful that it will cause a catastrophe."

"Yes, yes, yes, grass people dare not say a word!" With the deterrent status of King Huan, Miao Fangfang didn't dare to, no matter how thoughtful he was.

Right now, what Wei Yingning is more worried about is that this map is in the hands of King Huan Li Mu, will he not give it to her?

After leaving Miao Fang's house, she respectfully stretched out her hands to him, and said in a gentle voice, "It's getting late, please give me the map from His Royal Highness Prince Huan, so I can go back and give it to my father."

In this short period of time, Li Mu has already pondered over the map.It looks like an ordinary territory map, but what's so special about it?

"What's the use of this picture? Where does it come from?" He asked Wei Yingning.

"I don't know either." Wei Yingning replied, "It's just that my father asked me to come and get it."

"I heard all the conversation between you and that troublemaker." Li Mu couldn't help turning cold when he saw her lying.

"Since I heard it, why does His Royal Highness Huan bother to ask?" Wei Yingning just wanted to take the map and return to the mansion, "I know, that's all."

"Okay." Li Mu rolled up the map and handed it to Huai En who was beside him, "In this case, I will keep this map in this hall, and I will hand it over to your father in person someday."

Hearing the words, Wei Yingning glanced at Ah Man, gave her a look, then walked closer to Li Mu, looked at him closely and said, "If I hadn't been in a hurry to get it, my father would not have let me go out so late to get it. Why should His Royal Highness be in trouble with me?"

While talking, Ah Man stepped forward cleverly, snatched the map from Wynn's hand, and ran away.

As soon as Li Mu was about to chase, Wei Yingning rushed over and hugged him around the waist, no matter what, he didn't want him to move a step no matter what.

"Chase!" Li Mu angrily scolded Wynn who stayed where he was because he was too surprised.

"Yes!"

When Wynn realized it, he hurriedly chased him out.At that time, Ah Man had already run far away, and his whole body was about to merge into the night.

Ah!Surely it wouldn't be a waste of effort to let a chubby guy chase after a nimble guy?Uh...how could this man who was tightly bound in his arms give up struggling?I can't even move!
Wei Yingning raised his head to look at Li Mu, and was meeting his unsullied gaze overlooking him.

"Speaking of which, your maidservant is overbearing, violent, and has no rules. According to this palace, there is a master of any kind of maidservant. You look quiet and obedient, but you are actually the most cunning." He said this, Without a trace of emotion.

Wei Yingning just let go of the hands around his waist, blushing unscrupulously in the dark night.

She stood still, she couldn't refute his words, she just said: "I've offended you." After saying that, she turned around and was about to run.

Li Mu immediately reached out and grabbed her by the collar from behind, and carried her back to him like a chick, making it difficult for him to say, "You know you've offended me, but you still want to leave?"

Wei Yingning straightened his clothes and stood still again, complaining: "Your Highness is so rude..."

He didn't have the confidence to say this, after all, he was the one who was rude first.

She thought for a while, and asked: "The matter has come to this point, His Highness can just say what he wants. The curfew is about to come, and if you don't go back, there is no way to go back."

"Two women in three days disguise themselves as men and go out. You can do such an immoral thing, and you are still afraid of breaking the curfew?" Li Mu snorted, "I want to see it, if you can't go back tonight, what should you do?"

It was indeed too much time delay, Wei Yingning was afraid that it would be too late to go back now.

The sound is louder at four quarters, and there is a curfew at another quarter. How can I return home?
It has only been a while since the British government's treason has passed, and the curfew is strict. If someone from the Supervision Department catches him, he will definitely be beaten up.Most importantly, it will also affect the sound of the house.

Hearing it louder, Wei Yingning felt a little anxious. She almost begged Li Mu and said, "His Royal Highness, may the grievances between you and me be put aside for later? I have to go."

"It's this time, where can you go alone?" Li Mu looked at her coldly.

"I have my own place to go, and I don't need His Highness Huan to worry about it." Wei Yingning only begged him to let him go immediately.

"Forget it! You go."

Li Mu actually agreed.

Wei Yingning looked at him suspiciously, always feeling that he must be hiding some bad intentions when he speaks so easily.But she didn't think too much, and didn't ask too much, she thanked her and left immediately, and ran away.

At this time, it was the Sixth Street drum rest, the Nine Quays were vast, there were very few pedestrians on the street, and the sky was dark. Looking at Wei Yingning's fleeing figure, Li Mu couldn't help thinking:
A person in a boudoir, who dares to walk through the streets and alleys alone in the dark at such a young age, wouldn't she have the slightest fear in her heart?Although Wei Shilang is careful in handling things, he is very careless and laissez-faire with this daughter!I'm afraid it's a lie to say what you say is like a bright pearl...

With that in mind, he stepped forward and followed.

Not far away, he saw her walk into an inn.

This is her way! ?

At this time, a group of officers and soldiers patrolling the night came in the distance.The inn clerk saw Li Mu at a glance, and shouted at him in a low voice: "Young master, come in and avoid it! The people from the Supervision Department are here, and it will be terrible to catch him!"

Oddly enough, he really walked in.

The shop guy quickly closed the door of the inn, and said to Li Mu: "The curfew has been strictly enforced recently, if you are caught, you will have to suffer twenty boards. Could it be that you are from another place, don't you know? You must live in a small shop. One night? I’m afraid you will meet officers and soldiers when you go out later.”

"Alright." Li Mu said, "Just open a room for me, relying on the room of the young master who came in just now."

The shop guy sized him up and agreed, but he kept his eyes open and asked, "Are you familiar with that young master just now?"

"It's my friend, who is angry with me." Li Mu smiled meaningfully.

The store guy smiled contentedly.There are many people in the capital who have a habit of breaking sleeves and love to share peaches, and these two must be them.

Wei Yingning was unaware of this.

After running around all night, she was really tired, and fell asleep soundly when she entered the room.However, she didn't sleep for long when a familiar voice rang in her ears.

"Big lady? Big lady..." It was Li Chongjian.

She flicked her eyes wearily, and was surprised to see him, "How do you know I'm here?"

"This king is already familiar with all the ghosts and ghosts in the capital city. If I want to find you, I'll find out as soon as I ask." Li Chongjian smiled triumphantly.

"Oh..." Wei Yingning responded with a sigh, turning over and still wanting to sleep.

"Wake up, don't rush to sleep." Li Chongjian yelled in her ear again.

"What's the matter?" Wei Yingning asked with his eyes closed.

"The Hou's Mansion sent people to watch, all the people the third lady knew, including her relatives and friends, even the servants who had served her for less than a month."

"Heh..." Wei Yingning smiled with the corners of his lips curled up, "It's useless."

"My lady, I still have one thing to ask."

"What's the matter?"

At this time Li Mu was at the door, but when he was about to knock on her door, he heard her "babbling in a dream", and the knocking stopped.
