While Wenren Yingshan was in a daze, Mu Yunchen continued to ask: "I wonder if Senior 'Duwa' is interested in coming under my command and doing some practical things for the common people?"

Wenren Yingshan was already beginning to get restless, but he had just had a fight with Lu Li the night before. As a man, how could he be the first to lose face?

Therefore, Wenren Yingshan moved his lips, but finally gritted his teeth and directly refused.

He just said awkwardly: "Your Highness, please don't call me senior. I have a name. Call me Wenren Yingshan."

Mu Yunchen didn't force it and nodded thoughtfully.

But after returning to Zhongdu City, Wenren Yingshan suddenly found Mu Yunchen again.

It was the same scene again, but this time the expression on Wenren Yingshan's face looked a little aggrieved.

Mu Yunchen raised his lips and asked knowingly, "Mr. Wenren has come to my Prince's Mansion. What advice do you have for me?"

Wenren Yingshan frowned, then raised his hands to Mu Yunchen and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince is joking."

"I wonder if the Crown Prince's proposal last time still counts?"

Mu Yunchen seemed to be doing it on purpose. He had to avenge Wenren Yingshan's firm rejection.

He turned around and pointed to the seat next to him, indicating Wenren Yingshan to sit down. Then, regardless of Wenren Yingshan's anxious expression, he ordered the maid to bring tea and snacks to Wenren Yingshan.

Then he slowly sat down on the chair, showing an embarrassment, and shook his head in distress, saying: "Mr. Wenren, can you tell me why you suddenly changed your mind?"

"After all, Lu Li..."

No one knew what Mu Yunchen wanted to say next, but the sight of him wanting to say something but stopping himself made Wenren Yingshan unable to sit still.

He stood up suddenly, knocking over the plate of snacks beside him.

"Your Highness, is it too late for me to come now?"

Mu Yunchen pretended to be puzzled and asked, "I specially invited you before, but didn't Mr. Wenren want to come?"

Wenren Yingshan nodded quickly: "Come to think of it, it's rare now."

"Really?" Mu Yunchen asked pretending to be uncertain.

Wenren Yingshan nodded repeatedly, and immediately took the tea that the maid was about to pass to Mu Yunchen, and handed it to him embarrassedly.

"Your Highness, please have some tea."

"It seems that Mr. Wenren is determined to betray my fifth brother?"

Hearing this, Wenren Yingshan immediately became unhappy: "Hey, Your Highness, what are you talking about?"

"This is not called betrayal, this is called choosing a wise master."

Mu Yunchen took the tea from Wenren Yingshan's hand with a faint smile, blew it gently, and took a sip.

"Then has Mr. Wenren prepared his pledge of allegiance? I heard that when my fifth brother came to you, Mr. Wenren came to poison me in order to give his pledge of allegiance to the Prince."

When these words were spoken, Wenren Yingshan's heart skipped a beat.

It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finally found out that he had poisoned him?

Could it be that Lu Li said that? No, Lu Li would not harm him.

But apart from little Ali, there should be no one who can antidote the poison he personally developed.

Mu Yunchen put down the teacup, curled his lips and said: "You don't have to be like this. It's not what Lu Li said, I just guessed."

This guess made Wenren Yingshan feel a chill down his spine. What could possibly be possible that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince couldn't guess?

It's like being watched all the time, which is really terrifying when you think about it.

Wenren Yingshan was stunned, shook his head blankly and said: "I didn't say it was Ali who said it."

But the words had already been spoken, and when he saw Mu Yunchen's smile was even more meaningful, he realized belatedly that he had let the cat out of the bag.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince only heard that the token of his allegiance to the Prince of He was to poison him, but he had no definite evidence.

But he himself confessed it without any effort, and was exposed as soon as he lied.

Also, he just called Lu Li "A Li". How could they be so intimate with each other? His words revealed two things.

It seems that I have to be more cautious when dealing with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the future.

But the more you have this kind of thinking, the more likely it is that something bad will happen.

After hearing this, the shocked expression on Mu Peiyun's face didn't seem fake.

Unexpectedly, her Highness had come into contact with Wenren Yingshan so early.

I didn't expect that Mu Yunchen knew about the relationship between Lu Li and Wenren Yingshan so early, but he was too confused to notice the affection between them.

Mu Peiyun finally blinked, raised her paw, and asked weakly: "Your Highness, you have long discovered that Sister Lu has been in contact with Wenren Yingshan, and at that time, Mr. Wenren was completely Mu Yunyu's man, didn't you suspect Sister Lu?"

Mu Yunchen shook his head, looked at Mu Peiyun with a firm gaze and said gently: "Don't employ people you doubt, and don't doubt people you employ."

Mu Peiyun was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses. That’s right, this was the Mu Yunchen she knew, who always had a plan and strategy in mind for everything.

After Mu Yunchen and Mu Peiyun left, the front hall fell silent for a moment, and the air was eerily quiet.

Wenren Yingshan stared at Lu Li closely, his eyes never moving away.

It was not until Lu Li could no longer bear the burning gaze that she raised her head and said awkwardly: "Thank you very much. I am willing to go to Lige."

She knew how much Wenren Yingshan didn't want to set foot in the Lige tribe again, but this time she agreed just because she asked.

Wenren Yingshan had no intention of letting her go. No matter whether she was angry or annoyed with him today, he had to get a result before he could go to Li Ge with peace of mind.

"The Crown Princess has just thanked you."

Lu Li nodded stiffly.

"Then...when will you leave for Lige?"

These words sounded like a question to him, but also like he was just making small talk.

But Wenren Yingshan continued to answer patiently: "We will set off soon."

He finally understood that to deal with Lu Li, he couldn't use soft or hard methods, he had to show 100% patience and wear her down.

The stubbornness of his words seems to require a shovel to pry open.

But he just didn't believe it, so didn't he pry it open that night?

"Oh!"

The air fell silent again. Lu Li lifted his feet but didn't walk out in the end. But staying here was not an option either.

"Have you told the prince about your journey? Will he be suspicious?"

Wenren Yingshan continued, "If I told him I was going to look for a rare medicinal herb, he wouldn't doubt me."

Lu Li didn't know what to say anymore, so she just said: "Be careful on your way."

He raised his foot and prepared to leave.

As a result, someone grabbed his wrist.

Wenren Yingshan stared at her face closely, not allowing her to escape.

"Ali, you asked me so many questions, isn't it because you care about me?"

There was a buzzing sound in Lu Li's head. She was obviously a little nervous and pulled her hand back awkwardly.

"I...you and I are leaving at the same time, so I am naturally worried about you. Isn't this normal? You are a grown man, why are you so fussy?"

Wenren Yingshan didn't believe it and grabbed Lu Li's hand again, this time using a lot of force so that she couldn't escape.

"Is that the only reason you care about me?"
