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

Chapter 382: I don’t admit it, it just didn’t happen.

It was the first time that Ge Peining was carried by Li Mu on the journey like this.

At first I didn't feel anything.

When high-level warriors travel, they usually use light skills to travel. Compared with their speed, the speed of horses is really too slow.

But Li Mu's run lasted for two days and two nights.

You know, even if someone like Ge Lao traveled at full speed for two or three hours, he still had to stop and rest for a while.

"Husband, don't be so anxious. There are still about 20 days until March. Let's find an inn to rest for a night. We can do it like last time..."

Hearing this, Li Mu almost lost his mind, but he also knew that Ge Peining said this because she really cared about him.

He cleared his throat vigorously and said seriously:

"It's okay. We will reach Yunzhou City in two days at most. It won't be too late to rest then."

"But my husband has been awake for seven days, and he has been expending so much energy on the journey. His body will also be able to bear it."

When Ge Peining saw that Li Mu was unmoved by what she said, she felt ashamed and angry, but also felt even more distressed for Li Mu.

"It's really okay. I feel full of strength just holding Sister Ning'er. In fact, I plan to live next to the flower, just in case it suddenly blooms."

Li Mu smiled and expressed his concerns. Then he saw Ge Peining pursed her lips and seemed unhappy. He changed the subject and said,

"When we get to the Southern Region in a few days, Sister Ning'er will heal me properly, isn't that enough?"

Hearing this, Ge Peining reached out and punched Li Mu's chest in anger, and spat:

"I don't know how you got your body like a cow."

With her medical skills, she naturally knew that Li Mu was in good spirits and full of energy at this moment, and his body was not affected even though he had not slept for several days.

But this does not affect her, and she feels sorry for her man.

Finally, at Ge Peining's strong request, the two decided to have a good meal in the next town before continuing on their journey.

"Bring us all the best wine and food you have here."

In a small town, in a private room on the second floor of a restaurant.

Li Mu, like a bumpkin who had never seen the world, slammed a large, golden ingot on the table.

Seeing this, Ge Peining hurriedly took away the ingots.

Then he took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and sent the waiter away.

"Your Highness, our prince, is ignorant of the sufferings of the common people. This ingot of gold can at least buy two restaurants like this."

Ge Peining smiled as she looked at Li Mu as if she was looking at her own silly son.

"Besides, who would go out with gold ingots? I'm afraid that 60% of the people in Xing Dynasty don't know what this golden thing is."

???

"That shouldn't be the case. I saw on TV shows that people always order food this way."

Li Mu was stunned, and suddenly remembered the expression of King Yan when he asked him to change the silver ingot into gold ingot.

I thought it was the pain in my flesh, but now I think about it,

"Are you planning to laugh at me?"

He complained in his heart that the King of Yan was not kind.

At this time, a noisy quarrel came from downstairs.

"So what if she's a Rannu woman? In my opinion, the prince should make her his consort. It's better than the remnants of the previous dynasty!"

"You're talking nonsense! Princess Linglong is a Xia person after all. How can we allow a foreign woman to become the princess of our Xing Dynasty?"

"You're talking nonsense. Do you know what the prince and the future princess have been through?"

"I don't know! But I know that those who are not of my race must have different hearts!"

"Oh! I think you all only know one side of the story. When did Princess Linglong become the consort of Prince Yan?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present looked at the person who spoke, as if they were looking at a fool.

Someone immediately rebuked:

"Everyone in the world knows that since the death of the previous princess, Princess Linglong of the previous dynasty has become the new princess. If you have hysteria, go get treatment instead of pretending to be crazy here."

The man sneered and said disdainfully:

"How ridiculous! When have you ever heard of the King of Yan getting married? Where was the ceremony held? Who was watching? And who was the witness?"

The person who spoke asked four questions in a row, which immediately silenced everyone in the room.

After a long while, someone refuted with some lack of confidence:

"Yanshan City is far away from here, how can we know these things, but we did hear about the princess's affairs."

Although everyone agreed, they obviously had some doubts.

At this time, the man who was shouting said:

"I didn't want to say this, but today I heard you guys arguing about the princess. It was really ridiculous, but I have to say it."

"Since the death of the previous princess, the King of Yan has never remarried. As for the matter of Princess Linglong, it is either a misunderstanding or he has other intentions. It is impossible for a princess of the previous dynasty to become a princess of the king."

After these words were spoken, some smart people began to ponder.

A princess of the previous dynasty becomes a queen, in other words, she is a traitor to the previous dynasty.

If there were still remnants of the previous dynasty in the Xing Dynasty, how could they allow such a shame to remain? They would definitely find ways to get rid of them...

For a moment, there was a lot of discussion in the restaurant hall, and many people expressed their guesses.

Even some people who claim to be smart have already determined that this is the truth.

Someone must have spread this news in the beginning in order to get rid of the remnants of the previous dynasty who remained in Xing Dynasty.

After all, with such a major event as Prince Yan's remarriage, how could no one have mentioned the grand occasion of the ceremony?

"Oh my god, what a stupid move, old man, to just deny it, is this a loss of face?"

Listening to the quarrel downstairs, Li Mu's expression became very strange.

Obviously, this was not the strategy he and King Yan had agreed upon. Perhaps because he felt guilty, Li Mu never mentioned Yin Huanping from beginning to end.

But this rumor was obviously the work of Liu Mingyan, or rather, the work of King Yan.

Without the approval of King Yan, Liu Mingyan would definitely not make up such a rumor privately.

But ordinary people may not know the whole story, so how could those people in the capital not know?

Because of this incident, many court officials impeached the King of Yan.

"It's really like the old man's style, simple and rough, but Emperor Hongwen's side..."

Li Mu smiled bitterly in his heart. After listening for a long time, he found that no one mentioned his identity.

Apparently, people were more happy to talk about the Prince of Yan than the gossip about Li Mu.

However, the people did not care, but there was one person who cared very much.

"Are you sure this is what father said?"

Li Linger looked excited, staring at the female guard in front of her and said anxiously.

At this time, in Prince Yan's mansion.

The servants, maids, guards and runners were all talking about it.

The topic of discussion was naturally the matter of King Yan testifying for Li Mu.

"Miss Third, it's absolutely true! This matter has spread throughout the North, and some people have even heard the prince say it with their own ears. This was an agreement made between the prince and his cousin twenty years ago."

After hearing the guard's confirmation, Li Ling'er's face flushed unnaturally, and she muttered to herself:

"Father, what are you doing? This will give the court officials another excuse to impeach me."

Even if others don't know, Li Ling'er must know. Where did her family get the family tree from, not to mention that distant cousin.

I didn't know what I was thinking about for a moment, and I became very restrained.

At this time, another guard ran in from outside and said:

"Miss San, there is a letter from the prince for you."

When Li Ling'er heard this, she immediately jumped up, snatched the letter and started reading.

After a long time, Li Linger suddenly hugged the letter into her arms, her breathing became more and more rapid, the blush on her face instantly spread from her neck to her ears, and her whole body looked like a ripe apple.

"Father, how could you do this without even asking for my opinion?"

"Marriage is a matter that should be decided by parents. Since, since my father has said so..."

Li Ling'er twisted her body and muttered to herself.

The two guards looked at each other, shock and confusion in their eyes.

At this time, Xu Youzhi's anxious voice came from outside the house:

"Ling'er! I've thought it through. I have something very important to tell you!"
