Chapter 398 The Hired Wife is a Big Brother (31)

"What you asked me before... I'm not refusing, but I haven't figured out how to tell you."

Su Qiruo hesitated for a moment, and decided to explain it to him.

"Xi'er, give me some more time, okay?"

Bending her index finger to wipe the rice grains on the corner of his mouth, Su Qiruo still didn't dare to tell him her identity.

If he knew that she was the Crown Princess of Beiqing, he might not let her stay.

If something happened to the princess of Beiqing Kingdom in Southern Chu Kingdom, the whole Southern Chu Kingdom would be buried with her.

But she was really worried about him, and wanted to stay by his side and watch.

Even if you can't change anything, at least you can protect him.

That's enough.

If he successfully gets rid of the Chi family and shocks those clansmen who have their own calculations in one fell swoop, she will help him ascend to the throne.

If he is defeated, she will take him back to Beiqing Kingdom and protect him well.

She won't leave him alone and let him face those wolves and tigers alone.

Su Qiruo is different from the Emperor of Southern Chu. The Emperor of Southern Chu knew that he could not protect Leng Muxi for the rest of his life, so he wanted to train him and make him suffer.

But she is different, she can protect him all the time, and she has the ability to protect him, so she doesn't need him to compromise.

I don't know if it's because the past few days have been too painful, or because I'm too weak due to illness, when I heard her familiar soft coaxing voice, Leng Muxi couldn't help but have a sore nose.

But he can't cry.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Su Qiruo understood his thoughts and knew why he allowed her to leave even if he didn't see her.

Leng Muxi is not [-]% sure that he will succeed. Gong Bian is changing rapidly, and no one dares to say that he will succeed.

Although she didn't have the millions of soldiers of Beiqing Kingdom, she only had a few hundred hidden guards and three thousand guards.

But with her here, she will do her best to keep him safe.

"I don't want to trouble you anymore."

The boy who hadn't spoken all this time finally let out a sound, his voice was a little hoarse, and he was a little bit at a loss.

"But I have already collected your money, haven't you hired me for three years? How can I break my promise?"

Su Qiruo said half-jokingly, seeing that most of the porridge had been eaten, she took the bowl back and put it aside.

But Leng Muxi shook his head and said: "I didn't, I was afraid that you wouldn't have enough time on the road, so..."

He never thought of using [-] taels to tie her up for three years. He was really afraid that she would be wronged if she didn't have money on the way, so he asked someone to bring her more.

"I know, I know it all."

Su Qiruo gently wrapped the young man into her arms, she also thought a lot these days.

She was not willing to leave him, so she had to find a way to solve the problems between the two of them.

Before Leng Muxi could react, she had already fallen into a warm embrace.

It was still the familiar smell, the one he never forgot.

"All of this will eventually pass. We will talk about our affairs later. You just do what you want. No matter what, I will stand behind you."

So what if he sits on the throne as a man?

She is willing to use the power of the Beiqing United Kingdom to help him ascend to the throne, and no one can stop her.

The boy's slender arms slowly raised, then hugged her tightly, buried his face on her shoulder, and did not move away for a long time.

That trace of coolness flowed down the neck to the heart, Su Qiruo's heart ached unbearably.

His little prince was really too stubborn, and he didn't dare to rely on her.

Su Qiruo lightly stroked the young man's back, her long black hair felt cold to the touch, but the young man's body was extremely warm.

Tightening the thin quilt on his body, she reluctantly let him go.

"Sleep for a while, and I'll call you when the medicine is ready."

Leng Muxi looked at her with dark eyes, as if she could speak.

And Su Qiruo also understood.

"I won't go, I'll stay here with you."

As she spoke, she held his hand and closed his eyes again.

Leng Muxi held her back tightly, and as soon as she closed her eyes, she fell asleep.

He really hasn't had a good night's sleep for several days.

This time, even in a dream, she won't leave him!
The corner of the boy's mouth raised, obviously dreaming of something happy.

Su Qiruo stared at it for a long time before picking up the scroll he put aside and flipping through it.

Catch a thief behind closed doors, playing hard to get?
Thinking of how she once taught the emperor to pretend to be sick, Su Qiruo couldn't help but curl her lips.

The little prince is smarter and wiser than his mother, and he will definitely be a good emperor in the future.

This is the blessing of Southern Chu.

When Fufeng delivered the medicine, Leng Muxi, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly opened his eyes, and a coldness flashed in his eyes, and he relaxed only when he saw the person sitting beside him guarding him.

"Give me the medicine!"

Su Qiruo took the medicine, and brought over the snacks and chestnut cakes she bought, preparing to sweeten her mouth after he finished drinking.

The little prince who just woke up looks like he is awake, but his mind is still in a daze!
Leng Muxi didn't wake up until a piece of sweet pastry came into his mouth.

Thinking that she went out to buy these snacks for him when she went out in the morning, the little prince felt very happy.

It's just that his health was not good at all, and the illness has been tossing hard, and he didn't recover until the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

"I'm going to court tomorrow."

Leng Muxi looked at the woman who was peeling oranges for him and said.

In the early morning of tomorrow, news of the emperor's poisoning is likely to spread, and the court will definitely be disrupted by then.

The Chi family was honest because of the assassination a year ago, but after hearing the news of the emperor's poisoning tomorrow, they might not be able to sit still.

"Half of your mother's poison may be from the Chi family, and the other half... Those clansmen who have daughters may not be innocent."

Even though she doesn't like the Chi family, Su Qiruo can't just say that this matter was done by the Chi family.

Compared with the Chi family who can control the emperor, those royal family members are actually more motivated to poison.

"I dispatched [-] troops outside the city. Although I asked them to hide as much as possible, but with so many people guarding there, it would be easy to be exposed."

Leng Muxi really didn't hide anything from Su Qiruo, and even handed over her own secrets.

Su Qiruo frowned disapprovingly and said: "You are the Crown Prince of Southern Chu Kingdom, how can you tell outsiders about such things?"

But if she had ulterior motives, what he said today could destroy him forever.

"But you are not an outsider."

Leng Muxi's eyes were pure, and his eyes were clear, obviously not acting out of emotion.

He just believed her, if she wanted him to die, he would have died a hundred times earlier, why bother?
"That's not okay. A qualified emperor must always give himself a chance. I don't want to hear what I said before."

If Su Qi reprimanded mercilessly, even if she didn't speak out, how could he guarantee that no one around would hear it, and no one would spread the word?

The [-] army is the life-saving talisman of Leng Muxi and the emperor, even in front of the emperor, the two of them should not discuss face to face, so as not to fall into the ears of interested people.
