Chen Mu's eyes flashed, and smiled: "Li King said that you didn't do it, then you didn't."

Did he think that he could not see through this blatant distrust?

Qin Tianshui's face twitched as he looked at her solemnly. "You will only believe what I have to say?"

"Your Highness, what you want to do is your freedom. Let alone the fact that it wasn't you, even if it was you who did it, this humble woman wouldn't dare do anything to you. Your Highness, you don't need to explain it to this little girl." Chen Mu Mu Mu said.

Qin Tianshui could not keep shaking his fan. He frowned, "Cut the crap, just tell me the truth!"

"I believe you." Chen Mu Mu Mu kept his expression as he calmly spoke.

Qin Tiansei was slightly drowsy, and looked at her in disbelief. "You said you believe me?"

Chen Mumu found it funny. "Your highness tried to explain to me to clarify the misunderstanding. Now that I believe you, why are you making your highness so conflicted?"

"It's not entanglement." Qin Tianshui's eyes flashed with emotions before they quickly returned to their original state. His voice contained many complex emotions. "You're actually the first person this king has grown up and is willing to trust this king without hesitation."

Wasn't it because his words and actions were unreliable that others found it unbelievable?

They were all made.

But she was willing to believe in him as the number one person, then what about Grand Concubine Shen? Where's his sister, Qin Muxu?

In his eyes, was there still a barrier between his mother and sister?

Chen Mu Mu's thoughts raced, and he lowered his eyes, not saying anything.

It was supposed to be the best time to comfort Qin Tiantai and get a good impression of him, but his character really wasn't that great. She still couldn't use her conscience to praise him for his integrity, saying that others didn't trust him because they were blind.

She couldn't even pass her own test.

Who was Qin Tianshui? Looking at her expression, he naturally guessed at her thoughts, and said with a wry smile: "Since you also don't approve of my character, how could you still be willing to trust me? Aren't you afraid that I would lie to you? "

"There's no need." Originally, she had suspected Qin Tiansei, but since Qin Tianliang was willing to explain things to her, this suspicion could be dispelled.

He was a prince, and she was a commoner. There was no need for him to curry favor with her.

Qin Tiansei stared blankly, before breaking into a bright smile. "There's no need for that. Chen Mu Mu Mu, this king truly appreciates you more and more."

Chen Mu Mu Mu couldn't deny it. Qin Tianshui was an unreliable person, so his appreciation of him wasn't that great.

She pondered for a while, then said: "Then Your Highness, can you tell me what exactly the Shangguan Family did a month ago that caused Long Yan to become angry and cause the whole family to be imprisoned?"

The teahouse owner did not know about this, but as a member of the royal family, Qin Tiansei loved gossiping, so it was unlikely that he was unaware of this.

Besides, he had been keeping an eye on Shangguan Family's movements.

Qin Tianli glanced at her, "If I told you I didn't know, you wouldn't believe me, right?"

Chen Mu Mu Mu smiled but didn't reply.

Qin Tianli facepalmed, "I'm afraid of you. I do know some information, but I'm only partially aware of the Emperor's strict rules."

The Emperor's side is in strict control? Chen Mu pursed his lips. "If I recall correctly, the Son of Heaven today is around the same age as me. He's probably still a child, right?"

How many methods could a child use in government?

Qin Tianshui shook his head. "How could the age of a person born in the Royal Family be used to prove his wisdom? He's much more mature than you can imagine."

As he spoke, Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu saw a trace of fear and viciousness on his face. She wanted to take a good look at him again, but his expression had already returned to its normal state.

Chen Mu Mu's eyes flickered, but tactfully he didn't ask any further.

Qin Tianliang cast a sidelong glance at her as the corner of his mouth widened into a strange smile: "However, your guess is right. This little emperor is indeed too young. There are some things that even if he was willing to do, he wouldn't be able to do."

What did that mean?

While Chen Mu was still in doubt, Qin Tiansei had already explained, "The case of the Shangguan Family didn't anger the emperor, but the current empress dowager. The empress dowager wanted them to die. "You should know about the current situation of the imperial government. The young emperor is still young, and doesn't have much power. The empress dowager is in charge of the government, and she is the one in control of the entire Hundred Rivers Dynasty."

Qin Tiansei's tone was even. Chen Mu stared at him, but he had a faint feeling that this person held a lot of fear towards the empress dowager.

Don't underestimate a woman's strength. Since ancient times, the empress dowager who could hold a power that could hold a curtain over her head was no small matter. Her thoughts were also extremely sharp and ruthless, or else she would not be able to sit the same position.

Women were the narrowest in terms of heart, so it was easy for them to quibble about it. From a different perspective, offending the empress dowager was much more serious than offending the emperor.

She sighed and asked, "Then do you know why the empress dowager was so angry, sealing up the Shangguan family's businesses, and not sparing a single man, woman, and child to go to jail?"

"I don't know about that." Qin Tiantai carelessly waved his fan. "This King is just an idle person. I don't even want to bother with matters of the court, so I naturally wouldn't pry into such unsightly matters. Furthermore, This King's authority is limited."

Chen Mu Mu Mu didn't plan to interfere in his private affairs, so he didn't bother with his complaints. "A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, so no matter how limited the authority of the prince is, he is still happier than us commoners."

Qin Tianli paused in the middle of fanning himself with his fan, then turned his head and looked at her with a smile that was not a smile. "Girl, if you're willing, you also have the right to do so."

As a commoner, how could she have the same authority as the prince?

Chen Mu was speechless.

Qin Tianliang laughed lightly, "There's actually a time when you can't guess, and that means you're marrying me. Marrying me, everything that's happened to me is yours, my power, and also your power."

Chen Mu was silent for a moment, before looking at Qin Tianshui with a crazed look, "Qin Tianshui, do you have a paedophilia in your heart?"

"You're not young." Qin Tianshui looked at her meaningfully. "She's already 13, but she can already marry into the village. Don't always think of yourself as a child."

Chen Mu Mu declined to comment. She just liked to treat herself as a child and then use the fact that she was a child as a bargaining chip against others.

It was so easy for him to return to his prime. Naturally, he should pretend to be tender to them occasionally. Otherwise, he would waste a lot of resources.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Qin Tianli smiled strangely: "What, are you so wronged just because you married me?"

"I feel wronged." Chen Mu Mu nodded.

Qin Tianhai's expression froze. "You're really impolite."

"Why be so courteous? This is the truth." Chen Mu glanced at him. "You should be clear in your heart about how deep your circle of people are. Why would I want to wade through that muddy water? Moreover, I'm your concubine, so why should I hold on when I'm full?"

Qin Tiansei narrowed his long and narrow eyes, the corners of his lips still smiling: "It's not a concubine. This King has agreed to formally marry you, or at least a side concubine."

"Scram." Chen Mu Mu glared at him. "A secondary wife isn't a concubine?"

Qin Tianshui was at a loss: "Royal concubine, you don't know how much higher your status is compared to the common people. Why are you so against it? Furthermore, secondary concubine is no ordinary concubine. "

Chen Mu Mu mocked, "You really dare to say that since ancient times there has been a cloud, it is better to be a commoner's wife than a royal concubine." If I remember correctly, your concubine is equivalent to a servant girl and a horse cow.

Qin Tiansei rubbed his nose. "This girl, your requirements are quite high."

Chen Mu chuckled, "A good person, who wants to be like an animal? Your Highness, what do you say?"

"That's right." Qin Tianshui looked at her with a melancholy expression. "It seems like this duke will have to put in a lot of effort if I want to marry you."

"Without hard work, how could one get a sweet fruit? There has never been a reason to get something without working hard." Chen Mu paused as the corners of his mouth twitched, "But Your Highness, I really don't recommend that you stay with me."

Qin Tiansei was astonished. "Could it be that you think This King is unworthy of you?"

"No." Chen Mu Mu smiled. "It's because I don't like you."

"Feelings can be fostered." Qin Tianshui said.

"I refuse." Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu said, "You can be my bad friend, but if I were to be my husband, wouldn't my head turn into a prairie?"

Qin Tianshui was speechless. "These days, which man doesn't have three wives and four concubines? Girl, your jealousy is rather heavy."

"So, I want to find a man who is willing to be single-minded towards me. You're not suitable for me." Chen Mu Mu Mu wasn't angered by this as well. Smiling, he replied, "If I don't want to go, I'll leave the mountain to me."

Qin Tianshui looked at her with a bit of sympathy, as if he was looking at an idiot. "Mountains can't be moved …" The moment the words left his mouth, he seemed to have thought of something. He stared weirdly at Chen Mu for a while before saying, "Could it be that you want to become a nun?"

"What does it have to do with you?" She had forgotten that in this conservative ancient era, when a woman had reached a certain age and was unable to marry out, it was the same as a calamity. She was going to be scolded by thousands of people.

However, she was still young, so what was there to think about in the future? Two years was more than enough time for her to do a lot of things. If she still couldn't find the perfect husband and she couldn't go back, she could just find an obedient man to fake a marriage and make things difficult for her.

Qin Tiansei was rendered speechless by her words. Fortunately, they had already reached the restaurant. He coughed lightly and led her there.

At the foot of the capital, the restaurant with the best business was naturally not a restaurant that lived up to its name. Not only did it take up a wide area, but it also had a grand atmosphere. The restaurant on the third floor was decorated beautifully and it was in the middle of a disturbance. The view from the river and the bamboo forest were even more beautiful, causing one's eyes to unconsciously light up.

"Look." Qin Tiansei pointed at the golden plaque above his head. "This inscription was inscribed by the late emperor."

Chen Mu Mu raised his head, and stared at the three words of "Lin Xian Building" that were dancing in the air, as a trace of thought flashed past his eyes.

"Lin Xian Building, floating like an immortal, what kind of story is this?"

"Of course." Qin Tiansei said with a smile, "The late emperor thought that the food in this restaurant was extremely appetizing. Not only was it attractive, it could also attract immortals from the heavens. Thus, the place where the immortals landed was called Lin Xian Building. It is said that when you eat in this restaurant, if you receive the guidance of a deity, you will be transformed into an immortal and ascended into the sky. "

The corner of Chen Mu Mu's mouth twitched. This marketing was really good.

"So, how many people have actually turned into feathers to eat in this restaurant?"
