Chapter 99 Candor 2
"He told me you were a jeweler."

Zhu Yun nodded.

"Your family lives in Xunyang, Cangzhou, and you have parents and younger brother at home."

He still nodded.

"You wear a mask because your face drives women crazy. You want to save trouble."

He still nodded.

Meng Baiyun looked at him seriously, with a strange look in his eyes.

It seems unnatural to have to use words to describe it, the kind of unnaturalness like a child lying.

The psychology that Meng Baiyun has learned for so many years is not for nothing.

He lied to her.

He didn't speak, but nodded to himself in response, because he was afraid that once she spoke, her tone would be too guilty.

She looked at him quietly, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "Who the hell are you? What use can you, a jeweler, have for the batch of ironware from the Mighty Escort?"

In the air, silence spread.

He didn't reply to her, he was extremely disappointed, but he didn't want to ask further questions.

A faint smile: "Forget it, if you don't tell me, I won't ask."

Pretending to be relaxed, he continued to walk forward, but was pulled into a strong chest.

His scorching breath breathed out on her heart through the mask.

"Baiyun, there are some things I dare not tell you, because I am afraid that you will leave me."

"why?"

"I'm afraid you're afraid."

"You don't know, did I eat bear heart and leopard gall when I was a child?"

"Oh, I don't want to hide it from you, because it's hard for me to hide it from you, Baiyun, did you hear that the iron mine control in the city has been restricted?"

"I've heard that there is someone in Jinzhou secretly selling weapons to Nanchu, and most of the iron ore for weapons is shipped from Chang'an City. Don't tell me that the person who sells weapons to the enemy country It's you."

There was silence overhead.

Meng Baiyun's heart skipped a beat.

Pushing him away, he looked shocked: "It's really you? This is treason."

Although she doesn't have any political stance, she absolutely can't imagine that this kind of unscrupulous thing is done by the man she loves deeply.

He stretched out his hand to hold her hand: "Listen to me when I say Baiyun."

"Okay, tell me, I'll listen."

Her voice trembled slightly, afraid that he was such a characterless person.

He caressed her cheek: "I am actually the Emperor's man, everything is nothing but our plan."

Meng Baiyun's jaw almost dropped in shock.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, you are a royalist."

There are currently two factions in the city, the Queen Mother Party and the Royalist Party. There is no doubt that the Queen Mother Party is the faction that supports the Queen Mother, supports the dethroning of the Emperor, and supports the King of Qin.

The royalist party, headed by the former prime minister Murong, who had just been sent to the Imperial Academy, advocated that the Queen Mother return to power and supported the faction of the current emperor.

Meng Baiyun knew from the moment Zhu Yun appeared in Jin Wang's mansion that Zhu Yun was more or less involved in political affairs, but he didn't know that he was actually a royalist.

"Are you afraid?"

he suddenly asked softly.

Meng Baiyun shook his head instinctively, his stimulated brain was relieved, and many problems suddenly became clear.

No wonder he kept his identity secret all the time. It turned out that he didn't want to lie to her, but he didn't dare to tell her the truth.

In this way, why he, a businessman, knew the general's daughter, and why he was so strong in martial arts became a logical answer.

Because he is not a businessman at all, but a politician.

"You said back then that you grew up with Shen Qiluo, so you and General Zhennan are also old acquaintances. He must also be a royalist, right?"
