"Your Highness." Mu Peiyun was almost getting annoyed from lying down, but she wasn't sleepy at all, so she simply sat up, pushed Mu Yunchen, and called out in a low voice.

"Hmm?" In the dark night, the man's eyes were as deep as ink, like an eagle at night, always ready to hunt.

Mu Yunchen just looked at Mu Peiyun's back quietly. He didn't speak actively, but responded to every word.

But the next second, the eagle closed its eyes and pretended to sleep.

"Your Highness, do you want to have a child with me?"

Mu Yunchen's pupils suddenly shrank and he looked at Mu Peiyun's back in disbelief. In the darkness, their eyes never met, but their heartbeats were unexpectedly violent.

Mu Yunchen was like a boy who had just fallen in love, his face was extremely hot. If he could see clearly, he would have gotten up and gone out for some fresh air.

On the wedding night, he and the Crown Princess had sex, but Mu Peiyun had been drugged and was no longer able to think.

But he was awake, and he remembered every scene of the wedding night clearly in his mind. Now that Mu Peiyun suddenly asked this, Mu Yunchen felt guilty for some reason.

As soon as Mu Peiyun said this, she quickly covered her mouth and began to regret it. Why did she say what was in her heart?

Aren't girls supposed to be reserved? She was tempted by beauty again, but in this dark place, how could she see any beauty?

The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. Could it be that it was something inside her... Oh!

Thinking of this, Mu Peiyun hurriedly shook his head, threw the things out of his mind, then pretended that he had said nothing and lay down to sleep.

About a quarter of an hour later, the sound of even breathing came from beside him. Mu Yunchen looked at the curtain above his head and fell into deep thought. Now it was his turn to be unable to sleep.

Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed outside the window. Mu Yunchen quickly got up, dressed, tucked the quilt under Mu Peiyun, and went out.

Bi Qi was waiting outside the door. When he saw Mu Yunchen come out, he was about to report when he saw Mu Yunchen raised his hand to stop him. Then the two of them flew into the yard.

"Master, there was a group of men in black sneaking around the Prime Minister's Mansion just now. I led some people to deal with them, but I didn't expect that although those men in black were not very skilled in martial arts, their escape method was very strange. I couldn't catch up with them and let them get away."

Bi Qi stood respectfully aside. Together with the last time on the master's wedding night, this was the second time that they had failed to do their job properly, and the wounds on his body from the punishment seemed to have not healed yet.

"Could it be the same group of people?" Mu Yunchen narrowed his eyes slightly, and his thoughts went back to the day before the Lige tribe entered the capital -

After leaving court that day, he went out of the city with the Minister of Works. On the way back, they were assassinated. As Bi Qi said, the group of people were not very skilled in martial arts, and they could not be tracked after they escaped.

Bi Qi's expression deepened. After hesitating for a moment, he said solemnly, "Well, although I didn't catch anyone, the group of people tonight and the people who assassinated Your Highness a few days ago had the same body shape and method when they escaped."

"They all threw out an iron ball, and then white smoke came out. They were like phantoms, and it was impossible to locate them for a while, so my subordinates couldn't track them."

"I haven't heard of such bizarre methods in the martial arts world for a long time. In your opinion, who sent the assassin?"

Mu Yunchen suddenly turned around and looked at Bi Qi with a smile, which made Bi Qi's body tremble uncontrollably. The master had some guesses in his mind and was going to test him again.

Bi Qi was so nervous that he guessed all the possible people. The assassin was ruthless and it was obvious that he was here to take his master's life. But there were many people in the capital who wanted to take his master's life!

Seeing that Bi Qi didn't answer for a long time, Mu Yunchen raised his eyebrows and said impatiently: "Is it so difficult to answer? Is it because I have been busy receiving envoys these days and haven't trained you for too long?"

As he spoke, Mu Yunchen nodded to himself.

"It seems like you have become a bit slack these days. It seems like it's been too long since I let you return to Bi Ming Tang."

Bi Qi's heart couldn't help but skip a beat, but then he remembered that Mu Yunchen's words reminded him - to receive the Li Ge envoy.

His movements are so strange. Although the Bi Ming Tang is spread all over Mu Country, he has never met such a person. I guess he must be from another country.

Another country, recently related to His Highness, assassination of His Highness, when Bi Qi connected these three things together, he suddenly felt enlightened and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Highness, I suspect the assassin is most likely from the Lige tribe."

Hearing this, Mu Yunchen smiled and said calmly, "You really don't want to go back to Bi Ming Tang?"

Bi Qi: ...

Master, it turns out you know how terrifying the Fengyun Pavilion of Bi Ming Tang is!!!

Bi Qi looked up at Mu Yunchen with an aggrieved look on her face, unable to utter a word.

Mu Yunchen sneered and returned to the topic: "The assassin's method may be poison."

Bi Qi was stunned for a few seconds and had to bow his head and clasp his hands: "I don't know."

Mu Yunchen didn't say anything this time. After all, everyone has their own expertise.

"What has Lu Li been busy with recently?"

Bi Qi understood instantly: "I will go back to Yao Zhixue to find Lu Li immediately." After saying that, without any hesitation, he flew out of the yard in a hurry.

The yard returned to silence. Mu Yunchen looked up at the room upstairs where the person next to him was sleeping.

But I've only been back for one day and I have to go back. Qingning, are you unhappy?

The assassin would not give up if he failed to kill him. If he continues to live here with Qingning, it might be bad for the Prime Minister's Mansion.

But he was also worried if Qingning was left alone in the Prime Minister's Mansion. It was safer to keep her by his side than to send someone to protect her. Those people might be so cruel that they would capture Qingning and use her as a handle to blackmail him.

The next day, at daybreak, sunlight shone through the window and sprinkled on the table inside the house.

Mu Peiyun stretched and turned around to rest on Mu Yunchen, smacking her lips and asking, "Your Highness, did you sleep well last night?"

Mu Yunchen frowned. After Bi Qi left last night, when he went upstairs again, there was no place for him on the bed, so he had to spend the night at the desk.

When the roosters crowed in the morning, Mu Yunchen, with dark circles under his eyes, looked at the half-foot wide space left for him after Mu Peiyun turned over, and he lay down anyway.

I finally managed to relax and close my eyes to rest, but within half an hour I was woken up by the person next to me.

Mu Yunchen closed his eyes at this moment and didn't want to open them at all.

But Mu Peiyun had no idea what he had experienced last night. She slept so soundly that she thought Mu Yunchen must have slept well as well.

Not hearing anyone's answer, Mu Peiyun opened her eyes and pulled Mu Yunchen's hand a few times, but there was no response for a long time.

Mu Peiyun almost thought that he had "passed on"? Just as she was about to push further, she heard Mu Yunchen's tired and hoarse voice.

"If you, Crown Princess, don't behave yourself, I will really have a child with you."
