I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

Chapter 919: Zhao Chuxi’s two plans.

in the courtyard.

Ye Miaomiao raised her head and stared at Li Mu's profile, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

Li Mu turned his head, grabbed Ye Miaomiao's soft and boneless little hand, and ran his fingertips across the red mark on the palm that had not yet faded, and sighed,

"You don't have to do this in the future. Your blood is no longer of much use to me."

Ye Miaomiao pursed her lips, tears flickering in her eyes.

"Is Miaomiao useless? Staying beside the prince is just a burden."

It seemed that after that day, she could vaguely feel the subtle changes in the "Qi" in Li Mu's body.

Li Mu rubbed Ye Miaomiao's furry little head and smiled bitterly.

"What nonsense! If it weren't for you, I might be a different person now."

"Don't let your imagination run wild in the future. You are very important and you will never be a burden."

"Young Master~" Ye Miaomiao called softly, feeling as if her heart was filled with sweetness as if she had eaten honey.

Then he thought of what Zhang Hanrui had said in the morning, and took the initiative to hold Li Mu's hand with courage, and said in a whisper,

"Um, Miaomiao behaved very badly last night, didn't she?"

As she spoke, she suddenly raised her head, her eyes firm as if she was about to take an oath.

"Sir, are you feeling very uncomfortable?"

"Gudong"

Li Mu swallowed his saliva, pretended to be angry and glared at the little girl, threatening her,

"You dare to tease me? Don't beg for mercy tonight..."

As he said that, he started to scratch Ye Miaomiao's itch.

"Hehe, my lord, Miaomiao was wrong. Miaomiao won't dare to do it again."

After a while, Ye Miaomiao panted heavily, hugged Li Mu's hands tightly to her chest, and deliberately changed the subject.

"Sir, are you planning to take the queen out of the palace by asking her to change into casual clothes?"

She confirmed that although Li Mu had not been completely possessed by his inner demons, he was already on the verge of an explosion.

She gently pulled down her sleeves, trying to cover the purple bruises left by the fight.

Li Mu obviously couldn't even control the strength of his attack.

She knew that Li Mu didn't want to make her worry, and she also knew that Li Mu had already guessed her intention.

Li Mu raised his hand and sent a ray of vitality into Ye Miaomiao's body.

Although he tried his best to hide it, this little girl was obviously smarter than he thought.

It was also because Li Mu was too eager to prove that he was fine, which revealed more flaws.

Li Mu sighed lightly, his eyes deep and his pupils dilated as he looked ahead.

"Aunt Hui made a mistake, so she deserves to be punished."

However, what he wanted to know more was whether Zhao Chuyi and Emperor Hongwen would truly forgive her after learning that the queen had admitted her mistakes and tried her best to make amends.

Li Mu had a feeling that the answer would be very important to him.

...

"Mu'er."

At this moment, a soft voice came from behind them.

The queen wore a bright red skirt and her hair was piled up high with only a plain hairpin to decorate it.

It is completely different from the elegance and luxury of the past.

Li Mu was stunned. It was no wonder that she mistook the queen for Shanmei.

The two do have many similarities.

Just as beautiful, with the same reassuring smile, and just as willing to give everything for the children.

Likewise...they all treated Li Mu very well.

"I, are we going to Beidaying now?"

The queen walked up to Li Mu and smoothed her hair somewhat awkwardly.

She hadn't dressed like this for more than 20 years, which reminded her of some memories of her first meeting with Emperor Hongwen.

Li Mu came back to his senses, stepped forward and put his arm around the queen's shoulders, shook his head in a cold voice,

"No, you should do something for the first day of the new year!"

……

suburbs.

Three figures shuttled through the woods.

"Mu, Mu'er!" The Queen grabbed Li Mu's arm tightly, her tone full of urgency.

"What on earth do you want me to do?"

She could already feel the tremors caused by the advancing army in the distance.

If Li Mu continued to move eastward, he would most likely come into direct contact with an army of 200,000.

In such an open area, even if Li Mu had supernatural powers, there was no possibility of escape.

"This is it."

At this time, Li Mu paused, loosened his arms around the queen, and said calmly,

"Go."

The queen was stunned and looked at Li Mu in confusion.

"Persuade Zhao Chuxi to surrender and let him return to the capital to confess his crime and accept punishment."

Li Mu looked towards the east and it was obvious that the army was less than two miles away.

"you……"

Hearing this, the Queen stared at Li Mu for a long time, then nodded helplessly.

"I understand. Please return to the city as soon as possible."

"Given your current status and position, it is unwise to stay outside the city at this time."

The queen already felt a little sorry for the silly child in front of her.

He actually came up with such a high-sounding reason to let her go.

He was even considerate enough to ask her to change out of her palace dress and personally escort her out of the city.

At this moment, the queen felt even more guilty.

Just because of her previous ill-intentioned "love", Li Mu could do so much for her.

The queen pursed her lips and made a decision secretly.

I will never deceive Li Mu again this time.

Although this sounded stupid, even based on her understanding of her own son.

Zhao Chuxi was afraid that he would capture her and use her to threaten Zhao Chuyi.

But the queen still decided to follow Li Mu's orders this time. If he asked her to persuade the enemy to surrender, she would do so, even at the cost of her own death.

Seeing the Queen leave without hesitation, Ye Miaomiao frowned slightly and unconsciously tightened her grip on Li Mu's hand.

Li Mu noticed her reaction and tried his best to sound gentle, lowering his voice and saying,

"I've told you many times, don't keep anything in your heart, just say it."

"Sir..." Ye Miaomiao's face flashed with embarrassment for a moment, she pursed her lips and said hesitantly,

"If the Queen goes alone, will it be...will it be dangerous?"

"Heh." Li Mu turned his head and looked at Ye Miaomiao, but his words sounded like a question.

"Are you afraid that Aunt Hui will leave and never come back?"

Ye Miaomiao nodded. This was what she meant.

She was not worried about the queen's safety, but she was the only one who could suppress Li Mu's violence.

In her opinion, the best strategy would be for Li Mu to tie the man to his belt.

"That's right." Unexpectedly, before Ye Miaomiao could persuade him, Li Mu nodded vigorously. Before he finished speaking, he took Ye Miaomiao's hand and disappeared on the spot.

For some reason, Li Mu felt very uneasy.

Knowing that the other party was just looking for his own son, Li Mu still had a morbid obsession.

He felt that Zhao Chuxi might harm the queen.

This made him extremely anxious.

...

"Mother! Do you know what you are talking about?!"

After a while, they were in Gan Hong's carriage.

Zhao Chuxi stared at the queen with bloodshot eyes and roared.

"My son, listen to me. Now is not the best time. You and I should go back to the capital and admit your mistakes. Mu'er will never make things too difficult for you for the sake of... Chuyi..."

The queen grabbed the arm armor on Zhao Chuxi's wrist with both hands and was speaking.

With a "slap" sound, Zhao Chuxi slapped the queen on the side of her face and roared,

"Mu'er?"

"What a friendly call!"

"Who the hell is he? Let me admit my mistake to him!"

"My son..." The queen widened her eyes, and there seemed to be tears in her eyes. She didn't expect that Zhao Chuxi would hit her.

The queen clenched her fists, forced an ugly smile, and whispered softly,

"My son, we have already lost. Twenty thousand Iron Pagodas are no match for the eighty thousand city guards of the Northern Camp..."

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Zhao Chuxi laughed wildly and said in a contemptuous tone,

"Mother, you are too naive."

"If I don't make preparations for both situations, how can I dare to seize the nine provinces?"
