Chapter 44 Together

"Me and Mu Yunmeng?!" Xi Honglei almost choked on the saliva when she heard what Ran Yunshang said.Looking at Ran Yunshang dumbfounded, Xi Honglei never thought that someone would make himself and Mu Yunmeng a pair. "Why?"

"It's nothing..." Ran Yunshang looked out of the window with misty eyes, then shook her head, and said quietly: "Maybe I'm too selfish, that's why I said that. Just pretend you haven't heard of it."

Xi Honglei rarely sees a melancholy expression on Ran Yunshang's face, and the reason why Ran Yunshang shows such an expression is all because of Mu Yunmeng.The entanglement between these two people makes Xi Honglei more and more curious, and wants to know the reason more and more.But from Ran Yunshang, it shouldn't be easy to get the answer.As for Mu Yunmeng's stuffy gourd, Xi Honglei didn't have any hope.Leng Xiao can't mention this matter, and no one else can help.Therefore, the only thing Xihonglei can rely on in the end is herself.

"By the way, princess. Is Mu Yunmeng still working as Jing Zhaoyin?" Xi Honglei suddenly remembered Mu Yunmeng's official position and asked.

"Well. Father didn't take away his official title, but so what?" Ran Yunshang smiled desolately, and said in a low voice: "The person who was originally a prince has become such an official. It will only make others worse. It's just a joke."

A resentful expression, a cold voice.Seeing Ran Yunshang like this, Xi Honglei quickly shut up and stopped talking about Mu Yunmeng.

Xi Honglei stayed in the palace in great melancholy, her freedom restricted.And time passed while she was melancholy.Soon, the sky darkened.

After having dinner, Xi Honglei, who had nothing to do, went back to the room and sat there embroidering while looking at the painting in half-boredom.Lying lazily on the bed, Xi Honglei sighed weakly as she watched Hua'er embroider the pattern of mandarin ducks stitch by stitch.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Hua'er heard Xi Honglei's sigh, stopped what she was doing, and turned her head to look at Xi Honglei. "What's on your mind?"

"Well, yes." Xi Honglei looked at Hua'er's nervous expression, and couldn't help but want to tease her. "The marriage with Prince Chu is almost settled, so I'm not happy."

"Why?!" Hua'er exclaimed, realizing that her voice was too loud, she quickly covered her mouth with her hand, and asked in a low voice: "Miss, don't you like Prince Chu? Why are you unhappy?"

"That was before, and now I have someone else I like." Xi Honglei sat up straight slowly, looked at Hua'er as if she was about to cry, and said under Hua'er's shocked gaze: " What I like now is Mu Yunmeng. Hua'er, do you think I should run away from marriage, wander around the world with Mu Yunmeng, and never come back?"

"Little, little, miss, you..."

Hua'er stuttered for a long time, but she didn't say what she wanted to say in her heart.Staring at Xi Honglei intently, Hua'er was stunned for a long time with complicated emotions, before recovering a little.

Carefully stood up and walked to Xi Honglei's side, Hua'er first carefully touched Xi Honglei's forehead, and after confirming that Xi Honglei did not have a fever, said in a low voice: "Miss, this kind of joke is terrible. Can't mess around!"

"I'm not kidding, I really like Mu Yunmeng. Hua'er, what do you think I should do?" Xihong teased Hua'er with a smile in her tearful eyes, looking at Hua'er who was once again stunned by her own question. Hua'er, a smile quickly appeared on the corner of the tear-piercing mouth, and it disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"Miss..." Hua'er took a deep breath, and was about to speak to persuade her to stop thinking about it.But before he could speak, he was stopped by a knock on the door.

Xi Honglei frowned when she heard the knock on the door.So late, who could it be?

"Come in." Xi Honglei looked in the direction of the door and said softly.Looking at Zheng Siqi who pushed the door and walked in, Xi Honglei narrowed her eyes slightly and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

Zheng Siqi walked quickly to Xi Honglei's side, lowered her body and leaned against Xi Honglei's ear, and said, "Mu Yunmeng has already arrived in the palace, but there are people from Ran Yunpo watching outside, so it will take some time to come." Zhou Xuan. Mu Yunmeng asked me to tell you not to rest yet. He will come to see you."

What was Mu Yunmeng doing in the palace at night?

Xi Honglei blinked her eyes, but for a while she couldn't figure out the purpose of Mu Yunmeng's entry into the palace.Could it be that he came here because he said he wanted to talk to him about Zhong Zhenwang?But there is no need to be so anxious, right?Or, did Leng Xiao have any tasks for Mu Yunmeng to entrust to him?

"Hua'er, go back to your room and rest first." Xi Honglei sent Hua'er away first, and then stayed in the room alone, waiting for Mu Yunmeng to appear.

Listening attentively to the movement outside, when Xi Honglei heard the faint sound, Mu Yunmeng also appeared in her sight.

Xi Honglei stood up from the soft couch, watched Mu Yunmeng walking towards her calmly, and then sat down where she had just been sitting.Xi Honglei clenched her lower lip and asked, "It's so late, what's the matter with you?"

Mu Yunmeng raised his head, glanced at the red tears, and then slowly lowered his head. "Didn't you ask Zheng Siqi to call me here?"

"Just for this? Can't you come over during the day?"

"It just so happens that I have time now." Mu Yunmeng glanced at the tear-absorbing room, and said, "Besides, it's not convenient to talk during the day."

Mu Yunmeng's behavior and explanation made Xi Honglei feel powerless.Besides this feeling, Xi Honglei was also very curious about how Mu Yunmeng got into the palace.Based on his identity, he should not be able to freely enter and leave the palace.Did he sneak in?Does he know martial arts?

Having known Mu Yunmeng for such a long time, Xi Honglei has never seen Mu Yunmeng show his skills.Recalling the time when Mu Yunmeng was bullied by Liu Fu before, his eyes that were crying red also became sharper.

Turning around and walking to the closet, Xi Honglei rummaged through it, found a few medicine bags and handed them to Mu Yunmeng.

"Zhong Zhenwang over there, I need you to disguise himself as a quack doctor to see him. This is the medicine you want to give him. I tampered with his medicine before, and after a day or two, his condition It will get worse. At that time, you will use this opportunity to cure his illness. This piece of paper describes Zhong Zhenwang's current physical condition. After you feel his pulse, just follow the instructions written on it. Say it again, and he won't have any doubts about you."

Mu Yunmeng listened carefully to Xihonglei's words, looked at the packs of medicine in his hand, and asked: "This medicine is to cure Zhong Zhenwang's illness, but if I remember correctly, our goal It's supposed to kill him, right?"

"That's right. This medicine is not only an antidote, but also a poison. While curing Zhong Zhenwang, the poison mixed in it will unknowingly kill him. Anyway, you are a charlatan in disguise. As long as you take off your mask, no one will be able to find you."

"Well, it's a good idea." Mu Yunmeng nodded again and again, expressing her approval for Xi Honglei. "But who prepared this medicine? You?"

"You don't have to worry about this matter. After all, killing Zhong Zhenwang is the most important thing. If things go wrong, neither you nor I can escape from Leng Xiao's side."

Xi Honglei's words made Mu Yunmeng smile silently, and stood up. Mu Yunmeng and Xi Honglei looked at each other, and then, under Xi Honglei's surprised eyes, reached out and patted her on the head, saying: "I know Now, rest well and wait for my news."

After speaking, Mu Yunmeng was about to leave the room where the tears flowed.

"and many more!"

Xi Honglei stopped Mu Yunmeng before he reached the door.

He walked up to Mu Yunmeng with strides, looked at Mu Yunmeng gloomyly with tears in his eyes, and asked, "May I ask, what kind of grievances do you have with Ran Yunpo?"

"Why do you ask that?" Mu Yunmeng looked at Xi Honglei in confusion, "What kind of grievances will I have with Prince Chu?"

"Don't play dumb with me. Even if you say that, I won't believe you. If you don't want to say it, I won't force you. But what I want to tell you is that no matter what happened between you, but Yun Princess Shang is innocent. Don't get her involved."

Mu Yunmeng took a deep look at Xihonglei, and was silent for a moment.Thinking of Ran Yunshang's face, Mu Yunmeng licked the corners of her lips and said, "I have my own discretion about Yunshang. But you, remember to find your own seat."

"What do you mean?" Mu Yunmeng's attitude made Xi Honglei quite dissatisfied.Seeing Mu Yunmeng's calm expression, Xi Honglei raised her voice slightly, and said in a cold voice, "It's not your turn to remind me what I should do! Do I choose to side with Prince Chu, or Leng Xiao?" Over there, it's not something you should worry about! I'm not interested in talking to people like you, so go, I'm going to rest."

Xi Hong tearfully issued the eviction order, and immediately turned around and walked towards the bed.But unexpectedly, Mu Yunmeng behind him was not prepared to let her leave so easily.

The wrist was grabbed by Mu Yunmeng, and Xi Honglei was pulled back abruptly.Xi Honglei almost fell into Mu Yunmeng's arms, looking at Mu Yunmeng's face displeased, Xi Honglei asked sharply: "What else do you want to say?"

"I don't have anything to say, I just want to see your angry expression." Mu Yunmeng smiled slightly, and said in an angry way. "Did I do something to make you angry?"

"No! Yes!" Xi Honglei answered Mu Yunmeng with gritted teeth. "Go away, I don't want to see you now!"

Mu Yunmeng nodded, and let go of her tear-absorbing wrist.Under the gaze of Xihonglei, he walked slowly towards the door of the room.When he walked to the door, Mu Yunmeng suddenly turned his head and said to Xi Honglei: "By the way, get ready. After your hands are ready, go out of the palace with me to other places."
