Chapter 66 Baby

"Is this madman aware of everything in the palace?" Ran Fenghe sneered when he heard what Mu Yunmeng said.Leaning at Mu Yunmeng, Ran Fenghe asked sarcastically: "Just based on such unreliable rumors, you will let me promise you and let you leave the palace with red tears. Mu Yunmeng, I also think that I am really Is it so easy to talk?"

"Your Majesty, none of us can tell whether it is a rumor or not." Facing Ran Fenghe's cynicism, Mu Yunmeng did not lose his train of thought. "There is a reason why I can say such a thing today. Shu Kuang has already let the wind go, he said that since the palace has lost a princess, it's nothing to lose another dragon marrow jade..."

"presumptuous!"

Before Mu Yunmeng could finish his sentence, Ran Fenghe immediately jumped up angrily.Looking at Mu Yunmeng sharply, Ran Fenghe asked coldly: "Is everything you said true?"

"How dare I talk nonsense about this kind of thing. If the emperor doesn't believe it, he can send someone to investigate it. Now everyone in the martial arts is spreading this story. Although Shu Kuang didn't say it in his own capacity, he is a 'thousand-handed thief' It was originally another identity of his. So this time, Xi Honglei and I not only went to investigate the cause of Yun Shang's death, but also wanted to arrest this madman with our own hands."

"Okay! I will promise you that you and Xi Honglei will go out of the palace to investigate this matter. But if you can't catch that madman, Mu Yunmeng, do you know the consequences?"

"I know." Mu Yunmeng nodded flatly, and said, "Yunmeng will definitely do everything he can to bring Shukuang back."

Xi Honglei has been standing silently by the side, listening to Mu Yunmeng telling the emperor that she is going to take her out of the palace, listening to the emperor's cynicism, listening to Mu Yunmeng talking about madness, and listening to the emperor being furious.

Xi Honglei couldn't get in the way until Mu Yunmeng and the emperor finished their conversation, then Xi Honglei followed Mu Yunmeng out of the emperor's bedroom in a daze.

Standing outside, Xi Honglei took a deep breath of fresh air. After her mind became clear, Xi Honglei tugged at the corner of Mu Yunmeng's clothes, looked around vigilantly, and asked softly, "What's going on?" ?”

Mu Yunmeng looked at Xi Honglei's cautious face, smiled and said nothing.Sighing meaningfully, Mu Yunmeng suddenly raised her hands to brush her tear-stained hair, and then said softly: "The emperor has already agreed for you to leave the palace, let's go back to Xifu to see your mother sometime. Tomorrow we will leave the capital."

Xi Honglei listened to Mu Yunmeng's words, and looked at Mu Yunmeng's back as he turned and left. Although he was finally able to return to the Xi Mansion, Xi Honglei felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.

Walking slowly back to the residence, Xi Honglei looked at Hua'er and Zheng Siqi in the yard, and casually told them that she was going back to Xifu.Then, Xi Honglei went back to her room and packed her luggage one by one.

Accompanied by Zheng Siqi and Hua'er back to Xifu, Xi Honglei looked at Xi Hongbo and others who used to be arrogant and domineering in front of her. reaction.

After talking to everyone perfunctorily, Xi Honglei entered the room with Lin Wanru.Both hands were tightly held by Lin Wanru, Xi Honglei looked at the tears in Lin Wanru's eyes, and listened to Lin Wanru nagging that she had lost weight.After soothing Lin Wanru's emotions, Xi Honglei said slowly: "Mother, I may have to leave the capital for a while, and I won't be able to come back to see you."

"Leaving the capital?" Lin Wanru looked at Xi Honglei suspiciously, and asked, "Are you with Prince Chu?"

"No, it's with Mu Yunmeng."

"What?!" Lin Wanru's complexion changed suddenly with the red-tearful answer.Opening her eyes wide, Lin Wanru looked at the red tears for a long time, and then slowly said: "Tear, do the Queen and Prince Chu know about your departure from the capital?"

"I probably don't know yet, but the emperor does know. And the emperor personally agreed to this matter." Xi Honglei carefully observed the changes in Lin Wanru's expression, recalled the conversation between Mu Yunmeng and the emperor, and breathed a sigh of relief. Honglei thought for a while and asked, "Mother, do you know what dragon marrow jade is?"

"Tear, why are you asking this?" Lin Wanru froze for a moment, and said with a solemn expression: "Dragon marrow jade is an extremely important item of the royal family, how do you know this?"

Since it belonged to the royal family, why did Mu Yunmeng tell the emperor that what Shukuang wanted this time was the family heirloom of the Xi family?

Xi Honglei thought about it, but she still didn't ask the doubt in her heart.Because she was afraid of Lin Wanru thinking too much, and also afraid of pulling Lin Wanru into danger.

"Lei'er, you are not young anymore, and you are about to marry as Princess Chu. So there are some things that mother has to tell you." Lin Wanru held Xi Honglei into her arms, and spoke earnestly. "Mother doesn't care what you are going out with Mu Yunmeng for this time, but Mother hopes that you must protect your own safety, and you must promise Mother not to get too close to Mu Yunmeng. He is a dangerous person , the closer you get to him, the more you will annoy the queen and Prince Chu. Mother doesn't want you to get hurt, do you understand?"

"Mother, I understand what you said, but there are some things that I can't help myself and can't control." Xi Honglei leaned on Lin Wanru's arms, closed her eyes with peace of mind, and said with her heart open: "If If possible, I don’t want to bother with Mu Yunmeng and Prince Chu. I just want to find a remote place with a house, a field, and my mother, you and Hua’er. Lei'er doesn't want to force my mother to tell about my son's affairs. But just like your mother, you don't want to know things that you shouldn't know, and I don't want to get involved in the war between Mu Yunmeng and Prince Chu. But, I Nothing can be done."

Xi Honglei spoke to Lin Wanru about his difficulties in a low tone. Xi Honglei, who hadn't relaxed for a long time, already felt exhausted.

Slowly sitting up straight, Xi Honglei looked at Lin Wanru with a complicated expression, and smiled slightly. "Mom, you don't have to wonder how I know this. Lei'er is no longer the silly girl who only caused trouble and made you worry. Now Lei'er has the ability to think and protect herself. So you have to do Yes, just let yourself be well when Lei'er is not around. Then wait for Lei'er to come back, okay?"

"Okay, mother promises you." Lin Wanru tried her best to restrain her trembling, and brushed the side of her red face with one hand, Lin Wanru looked at her red tears, but didn't say anything else.

Xi Honglei spent the night in Xifu, and got up early the next day to rush back to the palace to reunite with Mu Yunmeng who had been waiting there.

Standing beside Xi Honglei, Mu Yunmeng saw Xi Honglei appearing here alone, and asked, "You left Hua'er and Zheng Siqi?"

"Well, I want them to stay in Xifu to serve my mother. Is it not possible?"

"Yes, of course." Mu Yunmeng nodded again and again, took the burden of tears, and said: "Let's go, don't delay the time to leave the palace."

The two walked forward side by side, and as expected by Xi Honglei, Ran Yunpo was also on the way, blocking their way.

Ran Yunpo looked at Xi Honglei and Mu Yunmeng coldly, without saying a word, he stretched out his hand to drag Xi Honglei to his side.

"What does Prince Chu mean?" Mu Yunmeng stopped Ran Yunpo's movement, put his red tears behind him, and asked, "Can you take her back to Prince Chu's mansion?"

"Is it your turn to take care of what I want to do to her?" Ran Yunpo snorted coldly, looking at Mu Yunmeng in front of him with disdain. "Xi Honglei is my man, I advise you not to meddle in your own business."

"Your...?" Mu Yunmeng frowned, looking at Ran Yunpo in disbelief.Under Ran Yunpo's sharp gaze, Mu Yunmeng nodded reluctantly, and said, "Oh, yes! She is your fiancee, my lord, I almost forgot."

After finishing speaking, Mu Yunmeng slammed Ran Yunpo's hand that stopped in mid-air, and said in a clear voice: "But now, she is sent to me by the emperor, and I must take her away. If the prince of Chu really disagrees , I went to the emperor and asked for the emperor's letter. As long as the emperor agrees to let Xihonglei stay, I will send Xihonglei to you with both hands without saying a word."

"Mu Yunmeng, are you threatening me with the emperor?" Ran Yunpo looked at Mu Yunmeng amusedly.

"If the prince insists on understanding this way, it's okay." Mu Yunmeng nodded and smiled. "Xi Honglei and I still have things to do, and we must leave the palace immediately. Therefore, please make room for us, Lord Chu, so as not to delay our schedule."

Xi Honglei held her breath, watching Mu Yunmeng and Ran Yunpo's back and forth with trepidation.Hearing Mu Yunmeng's unforgiving blows stimulated Ran Yunpo, Xi Honglei suddenly had the feeling that he was completely deceived by Mu Yun before.

Just when Xi Honglei was thinking wildly, Mu Yunmeng grabbed her wrist forcefully and walked forward.Rushing past Ran Yunpo, when Ran Yunpo held tightly the other hand holding Honglei, she could only stand there awkwardly.

"Xihonglei." Ran Yunpo didn't turn his gaze to Xihonglei, but looked down at the ground. Ran Yunpo said: "Whether to go or stay, you should think carefully. If you leave the palace with him today, then in the future, don't blame me for treating you No mercy."

Ran Yunpo's words clearly threatened Xi Honglei to stay.But Mu Yunmeng didn't back down at all.

"Prince Chu, why are you making things difficult for a girl? It's the emperor's decision that she go with me. If Prince Chu wants to disobey the imperial decree, it's better not to bring outsiders with her."

Mu Yunmeng took two steps back, and skillfully pulled Xi Honglei's wrist which was held by Ran Yunpo.Accepting Ran Yunpo's gaze as if he wanted to kill someone, Mu Yunmeng shook his head innocently, "We are really going to do serious business, Xi Honglei is your prince's man, I have heard it and remembered it in my heart. So... ...Prince Chu, we will meet later."
