Chapter 384 I, Chen Moqing, am innocent

It has been almost ten days since Mrs. Hui and the others left.

During this period of time, Xiao Yunxi lived a very painful life. Not only did she have to bear the fatigue of raising a baby every day, but she also had to worry about all kinds of random thoughts, fearing that something bad would happen to herself and her baby one day.

Ever since Xiao Yunxi thought that Mrs. Hui and the others were able to leave in exchange for... a deal reached with Chen Mo, she has had insomnia.

For this reason, Xiao Yunxi also thought more deeply.

Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Gan only gave their lives, but the children were not left behind.

……

……

Is letting yourself and your children stay part of the deal?

The reason why I think of this is because Mrs. Hui is the biggest beneficiary, and she had a motive when she was at Fengnankou before.

If he and Zheng'er were gone, then Mrs. Hui's eldest son Chu Shou, as the prince's eldest son, would most likely be made the crown prince.

As for the so-called broken bones and connected tendons, although Xiao Yunxi thinks that Chu Juan has a good heart, she is Mrs. Hui's biological daughter after all. Now she has become Chen Mo's woman. In order for her eldest brother to become the heir, she is likely to ask for help. Chen Mo turned a deaf ear and asked him to deal with her and Zheng'er.
Therefore, Xiao Yunxi felt that she could not wait any longer and had to take the initiative.

As long as you can keep Zheng'er alive, your body doesn't matter.

Besides, Mrs. Hui and the others might say something bad about themselves in front of the prince after they return.

In the prince's heart, he may have lost his virginity.

In this case, why not take advantage of it.

Once a thought arises, it cannot be dissipated until it becomes firm.

She asked the guard outside to tell Chen Mo that she wanted to see him.

For this reason, she took a shower in advance, put on a new summer dress that she had not worn yet, and tried to dress herself as young and beautiful as possible.

Put your baby to bed early.

Waiting for Chen Mo's arrival.

Half an hour later, footsteps and the respectful voice of the guarding maid were heard outside.

"Master Marquis," the maids said respectfully.

"Princess Huai is in the house?"

"Go back to the Marquis, Princess Huai is always in the house."

"Okay, I understand, let's all go down."

"promise."

In the room, Xiao Yunxi took a deep breath when she heard Chen Mo's voice. She didn't know whether it was out of nervousness, shyness, or something else, but her face turned red.

But not wanting Chen Mo to know that she had been sitting and waiting for him to come, Xiao Yunxi quickly took out a book and pretended to read it.

Chen Mo walked into Xiao Yunxi's room very naturally. He first glanced at the young prince sleeping in the cradle in the outer room, and then came to the inner room.

Inside the house, there are bamboo curtains hanging down from the windows, and streams of sunlight sparsely fall on the long table from the bamboo curtains, shining brightly on the teapot with carved patterns placed on it.

Xiao Yunxi wore a well-tailored light yellow dress with gold threads on the hem and a tall and beautiful bun. At this moment, her graceful and gorgeous face looked particularly white and flawless under the sunlight. It has a holy and noble feeling, especially the pink lips, which are shiny under the sunlight.

After all, she was the princess, and Chen Mo felt that even Mrs. Hui, Mrs. Xiao, and Mrs. Gan combined could not compare to each other.

No matter what situation she is in at any time, she always gives people the feeling that I am of noble birth.

There is a saying that none of Chen Mo's women can match this temperament. "The princess is looking for me?" Based on Chen Mo's experience, it was natural to see that Xiao Yunxi had bathed and dressed up in advance.

Seeing the young man's eyes looking at her unscrupulously, without even basic etiquette, Princess Huai, who was not paying attention to the book, put down the book in her hand, suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart, forced a smile and said: "Master Chen Marquis is here. You're welcome, sit down."

Chen Mo: "..."

Of course he would not be polite in his own place, and sat down directly opposite Xiao Yunxi, with only a long desk between them.

Xiao Yunxi said to her heart: "You are really rude."

Xiao Yunxi pursed her thin lips and poured Chen Mo a cup of tea: "Please drink tea."

But Chen Mo didn't move: "Princess, I'd better talk to you if you have something to say."

"Is the Marquis afraid that I will poison the tea? He won't even drink the tea I pour. Don't worry, I'm being monitored by your people every day and can't find the poison." After saying that, Xiao Yunxi returned the tea. He poured himself a glass and took a sip.

"Since your Majesty doesn't want to say anything, I will resign." Chen Mo told her lazily.

Then Chen Mo heard the sound of grinding his teeth.

Xiao Yunxi placed her hand under the long case, squeezed it tightly, then let go and said, "Mrs. Hui and the others can leave. Did they reach some kind of deal with you, Mr. Marquis?"

Seeing this, Xiao Yunxi could only ask straight to the point.

"Not bad." Chen Mo nodded without denying it.

Xiao Yunxi continued: "Mrs. Hui, Mrs. Xiao, and Mrs. Gan are committed to you. Mrs. Hui even betrothed Chu Juan to you. Is this a requirement of the deal?"

But as soon as he finished speaking, Chen Mo frowned and scolded: "Who does the princess take me to be? I am innocent with the three ladies, and I am in love with the princess. Why don't you invite me?" Be careful."

Xiao Yunxi: "..."

What a clean and innocent person.

"The Marquis comes to see them every now and then and stays overnight many times. Do you dare to say that your relationship with them is innocent and that you have done nothing?" Xiao Yunxi said.

"I have a clear conscience." Chen Mo replied like this.

This sincere question really silenced Xiao Yunxi, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

In the end, he chose to show off his cards directly and said: "How can you, Mr. Hou, let me and Zheng'er leave? As long as I can give you, I will promise you everything."

"Sorry, the Princess and the Crown Prince cannot leave," Chen Mo said.

Xiao Yunxi's heart skipped a beat: "Why?"

"I am the most faithful to my promises. Before this, I had promised the three ladies not to let the empress and the Crown Prince leave. I cannot break my promise," Chen Mo said.

Hearing this, Xiao Yunxi immediately thought that her previous guess was correct.

Since he didn't want her and Zheng'er to leave, one day, they would disappear quietly.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yunxi's face turned slightly pale and she said coldly: "They are so cruel."

"Whatever they gave you, I can give you whatever they can give, and I will give you more than they can, as long as you let me and Zheng'er go." Xiao Yunxi gritted her teeth.

"I have already said that I will not break my promise, why can't the princess understand me?" Chen Mo frowned and said.

Xiao Yunxi heard the implication. As long as she didn't want to leave here, she could say anything else.

"Huh" Xiao Yunxi took a deep breath in her heart.
