Chenye fed the pill into Mu Qianyu's mouth, then placed her on the bed and slowly helped her lie down.
Not to be outdone, Mu Qianyu grabbed the clothes on his chest, looked directly at him with hazy drunken eyes, and asked: "Who...are you?"
Beichen Ye was bent down by him, and his face almost hit her nose.
Her eyes were brighter after she was drunk, and her blinking was more like the stars in the sky. Her cheeks were stained with two blushes due to drunkenness, and under the candlelight, they were even more colorful than during the day.
He looked at her, absent-minded for a moment.
Mu Qianyu chuckled, pointed at his nose and said, "Look at your eyes, are you attracted to me?"
"You haven't slept yet, and you're already dreaming?" Beichen Ye's low voice was inexplicably hoarse. He tried to sit up straight, but was held tightly by Mu Qianyu.
"I don't believe it. You're both a flirt and a medicine giver. Aren't you coveting my beauty?" Mu Qianyu looked determined.
She is cute and naive after drinking, but she tries her best to act serious.
Beichen Ye's eyes moved and said: "Let go."
"If you ask me to let him go, I will be too embarrassed." Mu Qianyu simply put a hand on his neck, looked at him and smiled: "Don't be insecure, you are pretty good-looking, hehe."
Bei Chenye looked at her lewd smile and felt for a moment that he was being teased.
He held her wrist, trying to remove the hand hanging from his neck.
"Little man, do you know how to resist now?" Mu Qianyu, the bandit leader, got up and climbed up with both hands.
Because she exerted too much force, her whole body jumped upwards. Just as Beichenye turned his head to face her, their lips brushed together and separated again in an instant.
The warm touch made Beichen Ye startled. The warm touch made his lips heat up, as if they were being burned by a blazing flame.
Mu Qianyu was so drunk that she didn't know anything about it, and she was still mumbling: "Just admit it, it's not shameful if you like me. And if you say it, I'll feel more at ease, otherwise I'll always feel like you're after me for something else."
Beichen was speechless at night. Seeing that she still had no intention of letting go, he had to pull her arm down with a little force. When he stood up, he took a deep breath. He really didn't know what he could do if he continued like this.
Mu Qianyu jumped in the air and complained: "If you hug me, you won't lose a piece of flesh. You are stingy."
Beichen saw her sleeping with her arms and legs spread out at night, shook his head and covered her with the quilt, and said: "Be careful, the powerful are not that easy to deal with."
"I..." Mu Qianyu was very unconvinced when he heard this and immediately wanted to brag.
But as soon as the figure flashed in front of him, Beichen Ye had already left.
"Mysterious." She shook her head in confusion.
After taking the medicine, all her wounds healed, she felt much better, and she quickly fell asleep due to the drunkenness.
Noon the next day.
Lan'er, who was cleaning the room, saw her master suddenly jump up from the bed, lift the quilt and look down at her.
Well dressed, no strange smell, obviously nothing happened last night.
"You really don't like me?" Mu Qianyu wondered: "What are you looking for? I have nothing but beauty."
She shook her head. She couldn't remember much about what happened last night. The clearest thing was the words that told her to be careful about powerful people.
"What happened to Liu Wenzhong?" she asked.
When Lan'er mentioned this, her eyes lit up and she said, "Miss, is this good news?"
"Huh? Is it possible that you caught it?" Mu Qianyu also became interested. She originally just asked casually.
"Young lady is so smart, exactly." Lan'er said excitedly: "He has already run away, but the regent sent Lord Shadow to catch him personally. Moreover, when the regent left this morning, he took Liu Wenzhong with him. I heard that he was going to
Take it to the emperor."
"Oh?" Mu Qianyu raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Such a person would personally handle such a small matter?"
"Let's just say, the whole court is talking now, saying that Dingyuan Hou probably offended this man." Lan'er continued.
Mu Qianyu had doubts about this. She thought for a moment and said, "It's unlikely."
"Why? Everyone says that."
"It's too obvious. Will children like you even notice the real battle in the court?" Mu Qianyu shook his head: "And with the authority of the regent, the emperor has to give in three points, and a Dingyuan Marquis also has to give in.
It’s not worth his while.”
Lan'er was also confused: "Why is that?"
"There is another party to this conflict, and that is me." Mu Qianyu squinted his eyes: "If it is not to deal with Dingyuan Marquis, then it is to protect me."
This is the most reasonable inference.
Lan'er was stunned when she heard this, then she started laughing while holding her belly.
"The fact that you are so unserious makes me think that I may have said something wrong." Mu Qianyu thought for a moment and then said, "But I still think this is the most reasonable. The reason is probably because you covet my beauty."
Lan'er couldn't stop laughing.
"Hey, we are discussing something, please be more serious." Mu Qianyu couldn't stand it anymore.
Lan'er wiped away the tears from her laughter and said tactfully: "Miss, you are very kind, but the regent is notoriously not close to women..."
"Are you saying I'm narcissistic?" Mu Qianyu realized later.
Lan'er glanced to one side.
Mu Qianyu did not give up and pointed at his face and said, "Can you tell your conscience that I am not good-looking? I have become so famous recently. Is it abnormal for him to covet me after hearing about it?"
Lan'er pondered for a while and said: "Miss, you are good-looking, but I heard that the second lady of the prime minister's house is a queen of the country, and she is dignified, generous and talented..."
"Stop, forget it, I can't do it if I don't struggle." Mu Qianyu interrupted her praise of others.
After being persuaded, she was very puzzled, what else could it be if this was not the reason.
"By the way, what is Liu Wenzhong's confession?" Mu Qianyu asked.
If the entire academy knows that the mastermind behind the scenes is Marquis Dingyuan, it means that the interrogation process was not kept secret, and she should be able to know more information.
Lan'er slapped her forehead and said, "Yes, there are more. Liu Wenzhong said he let in three people. In addition to those two people, there is a third-level spiritual warrior. Now the whole hospital is looking for the third person."
Mu Qianyu narrowed his eyes, it seemed that the matter was not over yet.
Sure enough, people from the Penal Court came over in the afternoon and asked her who ambushed her that night.
Mu Qianyu insisted that there were two people. He had never seen the third person, and he had never heard the two killers mention that they had companions.
The people at the Penal Court did not get any useful clues, so they just jotted them down and left.
Next, the whole college was looking for traces of the killer, causing people to panic.
In the court outside the academy, on the day Beichen returned to court at night, the emperor ordered Dingyuan Marquis to be imprisoned and ordered the three departments to interrogate and investigate thoroughly.
After Mu Qianyu heard the news, his affection for the regent whom he had never met doubled. He thought that if he could see him one day, no matter what he looked like, he would definitely praise him for his unique style and well-deserved reputation.
