Mu Rong Yuan saw a flash of regret and regret in Lu Zi Nuo's eyes, so he used more strength in his hands and allowed her to get closer to him. Although his heart was beating steadily, he was extremely worried about following her all the way.
He had not just arrived at Danyang County. After he received the shadow guard's report that Lu Zi Nuo was going to pick Lu Zi Ling up, he had sneaked out of the capital and then ran into Di Xian.
However, he still had to let go of her and let her experience before she could grow.
Furthermore, he knew that Lu Zi Ling had eloped with someone, and would have to hide herself when she went, if not, the Lu family would not be able to take it anymore if someone reported it to the Emperor. Furthermore, he had heard her mention that he had coincidentally met Lang Zi Qing once before, and thus, he did not rush to reveal himself.
He had failed to protect her, to make her suspect, to set her up.
Hearing Mu Rong Yuan's heartbeat, Lu Zi Nuo snorted. His body did not have any traces of dust, and instead felt peaceful and warm everywhere.
Mu Rong Yuan felt the person in his embrace calming down, so he gently pushed Lu Zi Nuo away. Hiding it behind him, he stepped forward and faced the leader with a slight nod and a bow: "I wonder what fault does this friend of mine have to go to jail?"
"Is this your friend? So you're an accomplice? He is the great thief Lang Zi Qing! " The leader was slightly unnatural when he saw Mu Rong Yuan. He wasn't someone who recognized the person in front of him, but based on his intuition, he wasn't a simple person, so his words were much more courteous.
"Army lord, please look. This mask is black, but she is wearing a wide-sleeved white dress. Not only is it not of a color, her clothes are also a hindrance to movement." Mu Rong Yuan lowered his head and cupped his hands, and said slowly.
Lu Zi Nuo had always wanted to be a refined white-clothed gongzi, so he liked white clothes the most. Now that he stood together with Mu Rong Yuan, it made people feel that they were a pair.
"Moreover, Master had fought with Lang Zi Qing before, so you are naturally familiar with his martial arts, but she did not have that much power."
"Although he looks like he's wearing a wide-sleeved shirt now, we don't know whether he has a skintight shirt or not." The leader stared fixedly at Lu Zi Nuo, scanning up and down, only occasionally glancing at the talking Mu Rong Yuan, "How about … Take it off and take a look? "
Before she finished speaking, Lu Zi Nuo and Mu Rong Yuan's reactions were different as they both took a small step back. Laughing, she slowly grew older, and her body followed suit, so if she were to take off her outer and middle clothes in front of everyone, it would be no different from taking them off. She did not want to announce that she was a woman, however, Mu Rong Yuan stepped forward and gathered Lu Zi Nuo within his protective layer.
Mu Rong Yuan placed his hand on the jade pendant on his waist that could confirm his identity, creased his eyebrows and revealed the jade pendant, "King Yong Mu Rong Yuan is here! Can you prove that my friend is innocent? "
Lu Zi Nuo had seen the jade pendant before, but he did not expect that the jade pendant was actually Mu Rong Yuan's keepsake for the royal family.
The leader clearly hadn't expected that the young man in front of him would be a member of the royal family. After all, he was just a small official who was patrolling the night. He was so scared that he had long ago dismounted and bowed down.
Mu Rong Yuan looked at the flattering expression on his face expressionlessly. He always hated to use his identity to suppress people, but now he has no choice but to do so. He was too lazy to continue speaking, "I guarantee this person is not Lang Zi Qing, do you want to let him go or not?"
This was actually the first time Lu Zi Nuo had seen Mu Rong Yuan speak with a cold face. When he called himself "This King", there was a slight trace of frown on his forehead that was hard to detect.
When he was not laughing, the outline of Mu Rong Yuan's body became more exquisite, and the corners more distinct.
"This humble subject has offended you. I hope Your Highness does not blame me." The man had begun to tremble as he bent over with his hands clasped in front of his chest. He was sure that Lu Zi Nuo was not a thief with a single glance, he did not have any fake evil Qi on Lang Zi Qing's body, but it was impossible to explain after running away from Lang Zi Qing. He had originally wanted to report the situation to Lang Zi Qing, but who would have thought that there would be someone protecting him behind his back, so he could not help but secretly hate himself for missing him, as he secretly clenched his fists and broke out in a cold sweat for himself.
"This King spared you this time, but at the same time, I'm warning you. Don't think that everyone will be able to see through your thoughts." Mu Rong Yuan's expression became colder, he thought that if he was not there today, Lu Zi Nuo would not be able to escape prison. At that time, he would be tortured, and even if he did not confess, he would at least admit defeat.
"Yes..." After that person made a promise, he led the group of people away gloomily. Mu Rong Yuan turned around and saw that Lu Zi Nuo's head was still lowered. His face was filled with guilt and he couldn't help but laugh. He swept away the anger that had just arisen and rubbed Lu Zi Nuo's hair: "What's wrong?"
But today, he had only lowered his head even further, causing Mu Rong Yuan's heart to soften. Just as he was about to extend his hand, he was suddenly hugged by Lu Zi Nuo, whose body was taller than him, who coincidentally had buried his head in Lu Zi Nuo's chest.
Until now, when Lu Zi Nuo was already sitting in the inn, she had yet to save him from blushing. How embarrassing, he must have lost his head, she thought disdainfully about what he had done, but he did not know that his young, resentful wife looked so cute in Mu Rong Yuan's eyes.
"The moment you get angry, aggrieved, and shy, you have to change your bad habit of loving blushing. Otherwise, it would be too easy for others to see through your identity."
"How can I change my blush?"
"Well, you have to be in a good mood, so you won't have those blushing emotions. Perhaps, by smearing some ginger juice on your face, it would also be able to conceal your overly fair skin. " As Mu Rong Yuan spoke, the waiter carried them all out.
"Eat quickly. I haven't seen you around these past few days. You've almost lost weight." Seeing that the dishes were here, Mu Rong Yuan decided not to blame her anymore. Thus, she avoided talking about what happened just now and only gave Lu Zi Nuo a lot of her favorite dishes.
"I can't eat." Lu Zi Nuo pushed the dish to the side. Although Mu Rong Yuan being by her side made her feel a little better, but everything that had happened in these past few days was not something she could endure alone. She only felt tired. She was tired, but she did not think that this was an excuse for her to be depressed. She only covered it up with a smile.
