Li Yue Shu had just said it casually, but sensing the increasingly strange looks from the people around her, she instinctively moved aside.
"You... why are you looking at me like that?"
A faint light flashed in Qin Mo Yuan's eyes. He pulled Li Yue Shu, who was trying to dodge, back. "Ah Shu, don't worry, I've always been in good health. I guarantee I won't give Ah Shu any opportunities to think about other men."
"Boom!"
Li Yue Shu felt her mind explode, her cheeks instantly turning as red as if they could bleed.
She had reason to suspect this guy was driving!
Li Yue Shu did blush for a moment, but only for a moment.
She raised her eyebrows and suddenly leaned closer to Qin Mo Yuan.
The latter remained still, only looking at her with gentle indulgence.
The distance between them was so close it seemed they were about to kiss.
Li Yue Shu's voice was seductive, "My medical skills are good. I can make a man capable, and I can make him incapable. Does Your Highness want to try?"
Qin Mo Yuan: "..."
Why was it that every time he teased Ah Shu, he never got the better of her!
...
Because of Shen Cheng Cai's arrival, the opportunity to "accidentally" meet Gu He Xuan was missed.
Fortunately, Gu He Xuan was not someone who stayed in the Zhen Bei General's mansion all day and never went out. Li Yue Shu decided to find another opportunity.
As long as she could meet him and cause a little trouble for Li Xiang Ru, she could then set off for the Qing Yan Kingdom.
However, before Li Yue Shu could find an opportunity to meet Gu He Xuan, Li Xiang Ru came to her door.
Because of what happened on the wedding day, the relationship between the Crown Prince and the Regent King, which had been slightly eased, seemed to have returned to its former state.
As the Crown Prince Consort, Li Xiang Ru's visit to the Regent King's mansion at this time immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Hearing Steward Yan say that Li Xiang Ru had come to visit her, Li Yue Shu only felt that she was coming with ulterior motives.
Especially when Li Xiang Ru saw her, the first thing she showed was a happy and joyful expression, saying, "I didn't expect it to be my sister. When my brother told me, I thought it was just a person with the same name!"
Li Yue Shu knew then that her visit today was not simple.
Li Yue Shu also smiled cordially, "I heard that Sister is already the Crown Prince Consort. I even went on your wedding day. I've never seen such a lively scene in my life!"
Mentioning the wedding day, Li Xiang Ru's expression stiffened for a moment, but she quickly concealed it and changed the subject to sisterly affection.
Li Yue Shu naturally had no sisterly affection for her. She responded vaguely, waiting for Li Xiang Ru to state the reason for her visit.
But even until noon, Li Xiang Ru had not gotten to the point. Even when Li Yue Shu proactively invited her to stay for lunch, she refused.
It seemed like she had genuinely come for a simple reunion.
This left Li Yue Shu a little bewildered.
But the next day, she understood Li Xiang Ru's intention.
After leaving the Regent King's mansion, many people were inquiring, openly and secretly, about the reason for Li Xiang Ru's visit.
She did not hide it and directly brought up Li Yue Shu.
This time, Li Yue Shu's identity, which Hong Dai and Qin Mo Yuan had been trying to keep hidden, was "accidentally" exposed by Li Xiang Ru, including the fact that she had been married before and that she had designed against her in-laws and established her own business.
No one cared about the truth of the matter, as Tong Mu County was so far away.
From Li Xiang Ru's mouth, everyone learned that Li Yue Shu was a ruthless, greedy, selfish, and married woman.
How could such a person be worthy of standing by the Regent King's side!
When Hong Dai told her about the news outside, Li Yue Shu found it laughable.
After being rejected by Shen Cheng Cai, was she planning to take action herself?
Li Xiang Ru was too impatient!
"Aunt Mo, go help me with something..." Li Yue Shu instantly had an idea and was about to instruct Mother Mo when Steward Yan rushed in from outside.
"Miss, a person named Zhai Song just came to the back door of the mansion with a letter, saying it was urgent."
Zhai Song? Isn't that Wei Zi Miao's personal guard?
"Bring me the letter."
Li Yue Shu took the letter from Steward Yan and opened it. It was indeed written by Wei Zi Miao.
Qin Mo Yuan, who had moved over at some point, also cast his gaze on the letter.
"Greetings to Miss. It has been a long time. How have you been recently? I heard that Miss had a near-death experience in Guanzhou last time. Zi Miao, due to my current status, dared not visit and felt worried, unable to eat or sleep..."
The more Qin Mo Yuan read, the darker his expression became.
By the time he finished half the page, Wei Zi Miao's greetings and well wishes finally ended, and he began to explain the purpose of sending someone to risk their life to deliver this letter.
He had heard about the recent rumors concerning Li Yue Shu and had already instructed someone to secretly spread rumors that Li Xiang Ru had a bad relationship with Li Yue Shu when she was at the Li family.
Because of the wedding day incident, Li Xiang Ru wanted to consolidate her position in the Crown Prince's heart. She cleverly thought that since the Crown Prince and the Regent King's relationship was not good, causing trouble for Li Yue Shu would earn her the Crown Prince's favor.
The Crown Prince was unaware of this. Upon receiving the news, he directly quarreled with Li Xiang Ru.
He had persuaded the Crown Prince to personally step forward and address the rumors outside. As Li Xiang Ru's husband, he could resolve this matter with twice the result for half the effort.
At the end of the letter, Wei Zi Miao also advised Li Yue Shu to appropriately interact with the noble ladies in the court and "accidentally" mention her experiences at the Li family, which would help reverse the current situation more thoroughly.
After reading the letter, Li Yue Shu remained silent for a long time.
She hadn't expected this matter to be completely resolved so quickly, and she hadn't even had a chance to make a move.
Wasn't Wei Zi Miao supposed to be the strategist that the plot painstakingly placed by the male protagonist's side? Why was he instead provoking the relationship between the male and female leads?
Seeing her staring at Wei Zi Miao's letter in a daze, Qin Mo Yuan slowly spoke, "What is Ah Shu thinking?"
As he spoke, he subtly took the letter from Li Yue Shu's hand and slowly folded it.
Li Yue Shu did not pay attention to his actions, only frowning and saying, "When we were at Da Geng Mountain, the plot seemed to be able to arbitrarily change everything in this world. But later, whether we acted against Qin Ye Xiu, or schemed against the romantic relationships of the male and female leads, or even acted against Wei Zi Miao, who should have been loyal to the male and female leads, it didn't interfere. It was as if..."
Li Yue Shu paused, then carefully chose her words, "It was as if the plot could no longer control this world."
Wei Zi Miao's letter had been folded into a tiny piece and was completely held in Qin Mo Yuan's hand.
"It's not impossible," he said slowly. "If the plot could do whatever it wanted in this world, it wouldn't have let us return to Chong Zhou safely, let alone let the children's current situation be so different from the ending you saw."
Li Yue Shu's eyes lit up, a little excited.
This was good news for them!
"If you want to know if the plot can continue to help Li Xiang Ru, we'll know if we try!" Li Yue Shu happily turned around. "We'll depart for the Qing Yan Kingdom in two days. When we leave, arrange for some good friends to see us off, and we'll put on a big show!"
Qin Mo Yuan naturally did not refuse and immediately made arrangements.
The two left the side hall, and soon a servant came to clean up the room.
And in the place where Qin Mo Yuan had just sat, a pile of shattered paper scraps was swept away as trash.
