Yan Mingshi opened his eyes dazedly, and before he was fully awake, he saw several people carrying several bricks in.

Then a man in a dark satin robe slowly walked over. Yan Mingshi's eyes lit up and he quickly stood up and knelt on the ground.

"I, the guilty subject, greet your highness."

Mu Yunchen's face looked extremely ugly. He waved his hand, and then someone came forward and broke a few bricks on the ground.

Yan Mingshi's body was shaking violently with the sound of bricks breaking.

It was night and winter, but beads of sweat began to drip down my forehead.

He really didn't expect that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would discover that the bricks used to build the dam were replaced by him.

It was obvious that all the hollow bricks in the warehouse had been destroyed by him.

How did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince find out? Could it be that Situ Qingshan has already confessed?

Impossible, absolutely not sure, Situ Qingshan is definitely not that stupid.

"Master Yan, bricks like these can't even be used to build dams and stop floods. I'll make a bed for you, but do you dare to sleep on it?"

"They took advantage of the flood to make money crazily and embezzled the money from the national treasury for disaster relief. The people had just planted a little rice, but when the flood came, they had to starve again."

"Yan Mingshi, you are so brave. Do you know that this is a crime punishable by extermination of the entire clan? How many heads do you have to be chopped off!!!"

Mu Yunchen's voice echoed in the prison, frightening Yan Mingshi so much that he forgot to cry out for justice and beg for mercy. His body seemed to be frozen, and he stood there in a daze.

After saying that, Mu Yunchen turned around and left. Bai Yu also locked the door and continued to keep Yan Mingshi in prison.

Li Yu followed Bai Yu in confusion and asked quietly: "General, what does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean? He neither brought him to trial nor sentenced him.

Could it be that he came to the prison in the middle of the night just to scare Yan Mingshi?"

Bai Yu glanced at Mu Yunchen who had already walked away, then turned around to explain to Li Yu.

"You don't understand this, His Highness suspects that there is someone behind Yan Mingshi. This is psychological warfare."

"But His Highness didn't tell Yan Mingshi to think about it carefully!"

"Li Yu, you have to know that the fear of the unknown is the real fear."

capital.

and the Prince's Palace.

Many people came to Mu Yunyu's wedding, and naturally there were countless people who gave gifts.

It so happens that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not in the capital this time, and some officials who are wavering and good at playing both sides have the opportunity to show their talents without having to consider the face of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Mu Yunyu drunkenly pushed open the door of the bridal chamber, looked at the person covered with a red veil sitting on the bed, and curled the corners of his lips.

He stumbled over and lifted the veil in a very rude manner.

Yuwen Yuchao was a little frightened, but then he calmed down, raised his eyes and called out softly: "Your Majesty."

"Princess, you must have waited for a long time. I will come to accompany you now."

As Mu Yunyu spoke, he rushed towards Yu Wenyu, but missed and fell headfirst.

Perhaps because he was drunk and didn't feel the pain, Mu Yunyu looked up with a puzzled smile, muttering: "The princess is still flirting with the prince!"

But when he opened his eyes, he saw a face covered in blood in front of him. Mu Yunyu was so frightened that he stepped back repeatedly, with nowhere to retreat.

Mu Peiyao's face gradually approached him, his hands covered in blood.

Mu Peiyao stretched out his hand to grab Mu Yunyu's neck, and shouted viciously: "Mu Yunyu, give me back my life, give me back my life..."

"You, you, are you a human or a ghost?"

Mu Yunyu was extremely frightened at this moment, and yellow liquid began to drip from the ground.

"Your Highness, you killed me, have you forgotten..." As he said this, Mu Peiyao's head tilted...

Mu Yunyu's eyes were filled with fear and he burst into tears.

"Yao... Yao'er, don't worry about this prince. You know, I love you in my heart. I would be very sad if you died...

If you want to harm someone, go and harm the person who killed you, don't come and harm me!"

"Ah...ah!" Mu Yunyu shook off Mu Peiyao's hand and stumbled out. He stepped on empty air and fell into the lotus pond.

I heard a "bang" outside, followed by a loud shout: "Hurry up, someone has fallen into the water."

After a while, there was a loud noise, and someone shouted, "It's the prince! It's the prince who fell into the water!"

Yuwen Yuchao, who was waiting for Mu Yunyu in the bridal chamber, suddenly lifted the veil and ordered the maidservant beside her: "Go and see what's going on."

"Yes, princess."

Having said that, the maid retreated and came back after a while.

"My princess, the prince got drunk and accidentally fell into the lotus pond."

Yuwen Yuchao chuckled disdainfully and snorted, "I remember that the lotus pond was built by the prince specifically to make his concubine smile.

Are you shooting yourself in the foot? Haha, I don't know whether one of your missing concubines is dead or alive."

Seeing Yuwen Yuchao's evil smile, the maid cautiously said, "Princess, please keep your voice down. This is in the palace. Be careful that there are ears."

Unexpectedly, Yu Wenyu gave the maid a look that made her shut up.

"So what if it's the palace? Mu Yunyu still has to rely on my grandfather to clear his bad reputation."

No one knew why Mu Yunyu walked into the wrong room that night or what he saw, and no one knew why he fell into the lotus pond.

Mu Yunchen returned to the governor's mansion and found that Mu Peiyun had not slept yet. Seeing him come back, her worries were relieved.

"You're finally back. I was so worried about you so late."

Seeing that she was still awake, Mu Yunchen hurried over and held her hand, whispering softly: "It's so late, why don't you go to bed first?"

"I can never sleep well when you're not around."

Mu Peiyun could not hide her worry between her eyebrows. When he came in just now, he looked exhausted and the haggardness on his face was suddenly visible.

How could she not feel distressed.

But I couldn't help him in any way. The only thing I could do was wait for him at home and fall asleep with him.

"Thank you for your hard work, Qingning. I will stay here to watch over you. Go to sleep quickly."

As Mu Yunchen said this, he tried to put the person on the bed and covered her with a quilt.

Mu Peiyun blinked her round eyes and looked at Mu Yunchen: "Aren't you going to sleep yet?"

Mu Yunchen glanced at his clothes, then looked at Mu Peiyun and said gently: "Qingning go to bed first. I will wait for Qingning to fall asleep, then go take a shower and change clothes and come back to accompany you."

He had just been to the prison and seen dirty things, so his body was dirty. He couldn't let Qingning and the baby be contaminated.

Yan Mingshi: Dirty thing...are you talking about me?

Hearing this, Mu Peiyun immediately got up from the bed again: "Then I won't sleep. Anyway, I've been waiting for so long, so I can wait a little longer."

Mu Yunchen looked at her helplessly and could only coax her: "Qingning, be obedient."

"Qingning, don't be disobedient. Your Highness, go quickly. If you come back early, I can go to bed early."

In the end, Mu Yunchen had no choice but to quickly take a shower and change clothes before coming back.

The person on the bed was indeed still waiting for him eagerly.

At that moment, Mu Yunchen suddenly felt that this was probably his way out.

There are people waiting for him to come home, who will believe in him and support him unconditionally no matter what he does.

Never having any doubts is the most difficult thing to obtain when being born into a royal family.
