General is a Villain

When the carriage left the manor, clouds suddenly gathered in the sky. Dark clouds covered the ceiling, and before it had even walked a few steps, it started to rain. The dense rain fell like the drumbeats on a battlefield.

"It's really raining."

She thought back to those days in the mountains, when Muyi was like this as well. He said that when it rained, it would rain, and he said that wherever there was food, there would be food. Being with him seemed like she was taking care of his injured body, and wasn't he the one teaching her how to survive?

The pedestrians on the street ran with all their might. The rain got into the carriage and hit her on the face. Yi Xiaoqiao narrowed his eyes subconsciously.

A hand reached over and covered the carriage's small window. Mu Yi An sat beside her, blocking the drizzling rain.

The two of them were quite close, and Yi Xiaoqiao was a little nervous. She subconsciously moved to the side and grabbed her hand. "There will be rain over there."

Yi Xiaoqiao sat unmoving, her hand gripped by his. Feeling the thick calluses on his palm, her heart quieted down. Even though the weather was stormy outside, she still felt extremely safe.

"Muyi, do you think that handkerchief is hers?" Was she acting just now? " Yi Xiaoqiao looked up at Muyi, full of expectation.

His appearance was clearly reflected in those large watery eyes, and he actually couldn't clearly see what he was feeling in those half-closed eyes.

A hand pinched her face and moved it slightly, pushing it to the side. "What happened to your face?"

Previously, he was so focused on asking for a handkerchief that he didn't notice the shallow cut on her face. Now, when he looked closely, he frowned and took out some ointment to apply to her. He grumbled, "Why are you injured every day?"

"It's still your jinx, it's surely you who's going to counter me." Yi Xiaoqiao was indignant.

Mu Yi An pursed his lips and smiled: "How did you do that?"

"Nothing much, I just accidentally landed it." She had already avenged herself, so there was no need to report this to Mu Yi'an, so she wasn't willing to tell him.

"It scratched." From the looks of it, it wasn't a scratch, but a scratch from something. However, this thing should be very sharp, otherwise it wouldn't be a thread, but rather a layer of skin.

"It doesn't count as a scratch, it's just a mark. Maybe it's just a cut, so it's okay. You'll definitely get better after using the medicine."

"Do you think this is an immortal pill?" Mu Yi'an examined the wound and didn't press her any further. "Do you know how important a face is to a woman? Even though you cut your face, you still say it's fine?"

"You're still trying to judge a person by his appearance." Yi Xiaoqiao carefully touched the place where she was injured. It was ice-cold and not painful at all because of the ointment applied on it.

Mu Yi'an lowered his eyes without saying a word.

Yi Xiaoqiao thought of something and went over to ask with great interest, "If I were to be disfigured, would you still marry me?"

Yi Xiaoxiao wasn't the most stunning woman. When you first saw her, you wouldn't have thought that she was that attractive, but she was very attractive, and the more you looked at her, the more beautiful she looked at her. Especially her pair of eyes, they seemed engraved deep within, and although they weren't the biggest, they were bright enough, like twinkling stars.

Mu Yi'an smiled, "You and I were bestowed a marriage by the Emperor. If you are unwilling, then it's a decree. I don't want to die yet."

Yi Xiaoqiao pursed his lips and muttered, "So it turns out that he was still afraid of the emperor."

Mu Yi An tilted his head and looked at her. His gaze was gentle, but he smiled without saying a word.

Yi Xiaoqiao waved her hands as she whispered into his ear, "Actually, I know that thing doesn't belong to Princess Yun Jiao."

The warm breath landed on his ears and was rather scorching. Even Mu Yi'an shrunk his neck uncomfortably.

"Oh, why?" he asked in a low, suppressed, husky voice.

She didn't notice Muyi's strangeness and did her best to organize the words, "First, we met this group of people after breaking up with Princess Yun Jiao that day. If it was her, she wouldn't have had the time to arrange this, unless she knew that I would go out that day."

Mu Yi An tilted his head and looked at her, raising his eyebrows, "You know it's against you?"

At first, I thought they were after you, but when I thought about it later on, that dart was clearly coming for me, and Qin Lang was also coming for me. If it was because of you, then since I ran, there was no need for him to chase me.

Mu Yi An nodded. "Second."

"Secondly, Princess Yun Jiao originally wished for the emperor to grant us a marriage in order to cleanse herself. Now that you and I are about to get married and she has washed herself clean, why bother doing so? Isn't it just asking for trouble?"

"Third."

"Thirdly, Princess Yunjiao is very scheming. If it was her, she would have thought of a countermeasure. However, she is too panicked, and does not seem like she has a countermeasure." Yi Xiao Qiao paused for a moment before continuing, "Of course, if she knew that we were going to look for her and purposely put on an act for us to see, it would be a completely different story."

"It's not an act." Mu Yi'an pushed her a little too far. She was too intimate, her breath was like orchids sprinkling down on his neck. It was like a small feather, constantly teasing his heart.

"How do you know it's not an act?"

"Of course I know. No one knows her better than me."

Yi Xiaoqiao curled her lips. "You are really sincere."

Mu Yi An raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Hearing these words is a bit sour."

"Self-righteous." Yi Xiaoqiao smiled and whispered, "Actually, I don't think she was pretending."

"Oh, why?" Mu Yi An raised his eyebrows. After all, Yi Xiaoqiao and Yun Jiao had caused trouble before. If Yi Xiaoqiao insisted that it was Yun Jiao who did this, he wouldn't be surprised, but what was strange was that she said she believed in Yun Jiao.

"Because she is meticulous and crafty." Yi Xiaoqiao disliked Muyi's complacent look, as if this wasn't something that was worthy of being proud of. She confidently said, "Such a scheming woman would never leave behind such a clue. Rather than leaving a clue for us to find her, why not destroy it from the very beginning?"

"Mmm, you're also amazing for being able to see through her crafty schemes." Mu Yi An affectionately pinched her little face.

Yi Xiaoqiao waved his hand. "What are you doing?"

"Yi Xiaoqiao." Mu Yi'an placed his hand on her side, his face slowly approaching her. He opened his mouth and let the heat radiate from his lips to her ears, "You did very well."

An itchy feeling passed from the side of his ear. Yi Xiaoqiao could not help shrinking her neck, and her voice was a little strained. "What's good?"

"That's right. No matter who it is, once they hurt you, they would suspect. Even the closest people would have to be on guard against them. They shouldn't spend so much effort on anyone."

Yi Xiaoqiao felt a little awkward hearing this. He looked at Muyi and asked: "Are you talking about experience?"

"Experience." Mu Yi An solemnly nodded.

This meant that Mu Yi An had experienced the betrayal of someone close to him.

Yi Xiaoqiao sympathized with him a little. Seeing that he was still looking at her with a burning gaze, she nodded. "Don't worry. I won't give them my all. They're just a bunch of NPCs …"

She glanced at Muyi and inexplicably felt that the word "NPC" was a bit against her will. She swallowed the words that were about to leave her mouth and looked at the fluttering curtain: "Ah, the clue ended again."

Mu Yi'an didn't pursue the matter. He only looked out of the window with a faint smile, "Not necessarily."

"What does that mean?"

Mu Yi An smiled without saying a word.

What are you pretending to be a big tailed wolf for!

Yi Xiaoqiao went over and tugged on his sleeve. "What exactly happened? "Tell me about it."

"There's nothing to say." Mu Yi An shifted his gaze elsewhere.

Yi Xiaoqiao moved closer to him again. "Tell me about it! I'm curious. "

Mu Yi'an shifted his gaze.

Yi Xiaoqiao moved in front of him. "Muyi, as my future husband, shouldn't you satisfy my curiosity?"

Mu Yi'an's gaze slowly shifted back, his almond-shaped eyes curving into a smile. "As a husband, I only need to satisfy you. I don't need to satisfy your curiosity."

Cough cough … Did that mean he had no obligation to answer her? He really didn't know how to react.

But why did it sound like … It's so uncomfortable.

Yi Xiaoqiao's face immediately turned red. "You …" That's not proper! "

Mu Yi An tilted his head and ignored her.

We made a deal, it's a bet on black and white. You can't go back on your word. If you touch me, we'll treat it as us leaving each other!" His face was even redder, as red as a ripe tomato.

Mu Yi An looked at her with a smile that wasn't a smile and pinched her little cheek: "What are you thinking again? Do I need a woman that much? "Don't worry, this amount of meat isn't enough to make me go back on my word."

Yi Xiaoqiao clutched her chest as she stared at him.

"Yun Jiao is a smart person." Mu Yi An leaned against the carriage: "She will naturally investigate."

Yi Xiaoqiao was stunned. "Yun Jiao … Is she that fond of you? "

Mu Yi An swept her with his gaze and knocked her on the head: "Why are you sometimes smart, sometimes stupid?" Use your brain to think about it! "

Yi Xiaoqiao held onto her head, which was hurting from being hit, and suddenly came to a realization. "Ah, I understand. You mean …"

The Royal Mansion.

Princess Yun Jiao crushed a blooming flower. "Who is it? How dare you frame me?"

"Princess, are you thinking too much?" Cui Huan looked at her worriedly. Ever since Muyi and Yi Xiaoqiao left, Yun Jiao had sunk into deep thought. Currently, she had already crushed four or five flowers. If she continued to pinch, this branch would become bald.

"It's not that I'm thinking too much, but that I'm thinking too little." Yun Jiao fiercely gritted her teeth and said, "Go investigate and see who my father gave those flowers and spices to. When I catch him, I will definitely feed him to the dogs!"
