"If it weren't for the experiment at that time, I'm afraid I would still be a lunatic who can't control myself.

Do you still remember what happened at Lu's house that night? "

He bent down and picked up a transparent glass bottle, which contained a little light blue crystal.

"This thing is called CM-3, and it is an addictive drug that destroys the nerve center. When I was in Mu's family, I took in the most of this kind of thing.

What happened at Lu's house that day was caused by invisibly ingesting CM-3, but it has not been found out what it is mixed with. "

"Could it be that someone from the Lu family was bought by the Mu family?" Ruan Yuebai guessed.

"Don't worry, grandma won't let anyone other than Mu's family handle this matter."

Touching the top of her hair reassuringly, Mu Xiao said softly: "This matter is now being investigated by Zhong Xu and others, and I believe there will be results soon. Well, it's getting late, let's go back. "

Knowing that she couldn't help in investigating this kind of matter, Ruan Yuebai had no choice but to leave the empty house with him.

On the way back to Tanyuan, the two kept holding hands, and Ruan Yuebai rubbed Mu Xiao's palm, the warm touch was reassuring.

She couldn't help but took out her mobile phone, took a picture of the two people shaking hands, and posted a Weibo like showing off:
"It will be evening from now on."

In the photo, one big and one small hands clasped together, and Mu Xiao's flat sleeves were exposed in the corner of the photo, making his wrists firm and strong.

At the same time, Yan Xiuqi's cell phone rang in the study of the Chongzhao Palace of the Imperial Court.

He picked up the mobile phone on the table, clicked on the push button, and his eyes darkened instantly.

After staring at the photo for a long time, Yan Xiuqi casually clicked a thumbs up, and then scrolled down a bit.

It's just that he didn't browse through the content carefully, and after a while, he turned back to the photo of Ruan Yue's white hair.

"Ruan Yuebai?" A serious voice suddenly came out from behind, Yan Xiuqi immediately put away his phone and stood up.

"Father."

"It's not the first time I've seen you staring at her in a daze."

Yan Zhengrong looked at him with some displeasure, and casually flipped through the documents on the desktop, "You only read three documents all night?"

"Sorry father, I was distracted today."

Yan Xiuqi lowered his head and put the phone back in his pocket.

"I know what you're thinking." Yan Zhengrong sighed.

"She is indeed a good child, but she is also Mu Xiao's wife. Even if the imperial court can erase her experience, she cannot snatch her from Mu Xiao's hands."

"Father, I didn't mean that..."

"You don't need to tell me whether you have such thoughts." Yan Zhengrong looked at him and said with a serious face: "Only you know your thoughts.

And you are that gentleman's apprentice, so you should be very clear in your heart that everything in the world has a price, and you have to pay the corresponding price for what you want.

But Xiu Qi, you are the crown prince of this country, all the price you pay will be very huge, even so huge that this country can't bear it..."

"I see."

Yan Xiuqi nodded, his thick eyelashes covered his eyes, making it impossible to see his inner thoughts.

But Yan Zhengrong knew his son's temperament very well.

He understands everything, and is so sensible that even he, a father, is ashamed of himself.

But it is precisely because his rationality and sensibility are too strong that he endures more painful torture than others.

This is his price.

"I have never stopped you from what you wanted to do since you were a child, and I will not stop you this time.

If you really want her, I can use the power of the imperial court to help you snatch her from Mu Xiao.

But you have to consider the cost of doing so. "

"Father." Yan Xiuqi raised his head and gave Yan Zhengrong a reassuring smile, "Don't worry, I know what to do."

Seeing that his expression was normal, Yan Zhengrong nodded and said nothing.

"It's getting late, I'll take you back to Yuyi Palace."

After speaking, he got up and followed Yan Zhengrong out of the study.

But Yan Zhengrong patted him on the shoulder.

"It's just two steps, no need to send it off. You have a good rest, and you have class tomorrow morning."

Having said that, Yan Xiuqi still sent Yan Zhengrong outside the palace, and watched the internal officials follow him towards Yuyi Palace.

After the figures of the two disappeared at the corner of the inner alley, Yan Xiuqi turned around and prepared to go back to the room.

However, as soon as he turned around, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure flashing past the back wall of the study, heading towards the backyard of Chongzhao Palace.

Yan Xiuqi frowned slightly, reached out and took out a stubby pen from his pocket.

"who?"

As he walked towards the direction where he saw the figure just now, he asked casually, but the pen in his hand was spinning rapidly.

Just as he immediately walked around the study, an internal officer carrying a coat suddenly came from the backyard.

"His Royal Highness."

Seeing Yan Xiuqi, the internal officer immediately bowed down respectfully.

"Whose clothes are you holding?"

"It's the coat that the dormitory officer prepared for you to wear tomorrow."

The visitor immediately explained: "Does His Royal Highness not like it?"

It was a middle-aged man who spoke, Yan Xiuqi was a little unfamiliar, and his eyes turned cold in an instant.

"You look up."

Hearing his request, the internal officer froze for a moment, then slowly raised his head.

Yan Xiuqi narrowed his eyes, then touched the corner of his coat.

"When was it called?"

"This subordinate was just transferred to the outer room last week. During this time, Your Highness left early and returned late, and this subordinate has never had the chance to meet His Highness. It is normal that you do not know your subordinate."

What the internal officer said was true. During this period of time, he started to handle some affairs of the imperial court and met with cabinet ministers every day, so he had no time to care about what happened in Chongzhao Palace.

Slightly nodding his head, Yan Xiuqi let go of the corner of his clothes.

"The material of this coat is not good. Throw it away. I will wear that dark blue trench coat tomorrow."

The internal officer nodded immediately upon hearing this.

"Yes, this subordinate will exchange it for you immediately."

After speaking, the internal officer took two steps back, then turned around and walked towards the apse where the clothes were stored.

Yan Xiuqi looked at his back, and the pen turning in his hand suddenly stopped, and the tip of the pen shone coldly. If you look carefully, you can find that the barrel of the whole pen is split from the side, and there is a slender blade hidden in it .

……

Early the next morning, Mu Xiao went to work early.

Ruan Yuebai lay on the bed for a long time, and finally the reminder sound from her mobile phone woke her up from her sleep.

"Oops, today is the last day of this year!"

Looking at the reminder on the phone, Ruan Yuebai suddenly woke up.

There were so many things during this period that she almost forgot the date. If it wasn't for the notification reminder from her mobile phone, she might not remember it until the New Year's Eve tonight!
