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

Chapter 360: Nothing can be done, just keep it safe.

"Cousin... I'm going to go find you a book."

Seeing this, Xiang Meng hurriedly stood up and quickly followed Xiang Dairu.

Li Mu thought about it and decided not to stop him. He turned to look at Liu Mingyan, thinking that the other party had just reminded him and he should thank her anyway.

However, Liu Mingyan bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth and looked at him with a very complicated look, including surprise, realization... and a hint of admiration?

On the other hand, Yuanbao's mouth was slightly pouted, his cheeks were puffed up, and his chubby little face was red with anger.

Seeing Li Mu looking at her, she turned her head away and let out a delicate hum.

"These two people, their souls have been swapped?"

Li Mu was a little puzzled and felt that it would be better not to say thank you.

Unexpectedly, Liu Mingyan took the initiative to walk towards him.

"Your Highness knows that the prince is pretending to be drunk?"

Liu Mingyan's voice was very low, as if she was afraid of being heard.

"Isn't it obvious? With a first-level physique, it's not that easy to get drunk."

He complained in his heart but didn't answer. The King of Yan had just revealed his true feelings, and if he exposed them, it would be a slap in his face.

He smiled knowingly at Liu Mingyan, looked at Yuan Bao and asked:

"What's wrong with this girl? Who offended her?"

"No, it's okay! I ate too fast just now, I think I choked."

Liu Mingyan secretly cursed herself for being nosy. How could Li Mu not see whether the Prince of Yan was really drunk or not?

He wanted to remind Li Mu, but swallowed it back.

She was afraid that if she did this, Li Mu would think that she was trying to sow discord.

Yuanbao saw that Liu Mingyan looked like she had been wronged and was blaming herself.

He didn't care about getting angry with Li Mu anymore, he grabbed Liu Mingyan's sleeve and called softly:

"Miss, ma'am!"

For Yuanbao, Liu Mingyan was the hope for the business' rise. Suddenly, she seemed like she had lost her soul. How could she not be worried?

She was taught since childhood that even brothers had to settle accounts clearly.

It’s okay to let her fight for Li Mu, but it’s definitely not okay to do business at a loss!

This doesn't fit in with her outlook.

Although her understanding was a little off, Liu Mingyan's current behavior really scared her.

Nothing has even happened yet and they've already started to pay money. If there really is physical contact, then the business will have no hope of rising.

Simply, destroy it...

Just as the three of them were thinking about their own things.

Xiang Dairu hurried back from the back hall, holding a painting scroll that was at least two meters long.

Also coming along was the King of Yan, who was previously drunk and unconscious.

As soon as he saw Li Mu, he started shouting:

"I said I wasn't drunk, but after drinking these two bowls of hangover soup, I feel like nothing happened."

Li Mu didn't have time to care about him. He flipped his wrist and placed all the dishes on the table on the ground intact.

Then he signaled Xiang Dairu to quickly unfold the map.

However, the four people present were shocked by Li Mu's precise control of the object.

They all stood there in silence, their eyes moving back and forth between the dishes and Li Mu.

Following the gazes of the four people, Li Mu was also stunned.

I just did it in a hurry.

But I never thought that my control over my Qi would improve so quickly. It was not like this during the fight the night before...

"What happened in between? Did you sleep? Did you see all the gold ingots? Forget it, forget it, I'll think about it later."

At this time, Li Mu was concentrating on the holy image and saw Xiang Dairu still standing there in a daze.

He simply took the map from her hand, shook it gently, and spread it out on the table.

“What a luxury…”

Seeing the full map, Li Mu couldn't help but sigh.

Mountains, rivers and cities are all embroidered on the smooth white silk.

Without looking closely, Li Mu knew that this map was much more detailed than the one Li Ling'er had shown him before.

Li Mu first glanced at the location of Jing'an City, then looked towards Qiuzhou City to the south, and had a general idea in his mind.

He pointed his finger at the tablecloth outside the map, just east of Jing'an City, and asked:

"Auntie Ru, is the sea of ​​flowers located in this position?"

Hearing this, Xiang Dairu gradually came back to his senses from his shock and quickly scanned the map.

Grabbing Li Mu's wrist, he moved a distance on the tablecloth and said uncertainly:

“It should be at this location.”

"Here?" Li Mu frowned, turned his head and glanced in the direction of Jing'an City, wondering,

"Northeast..."

"So what was that position just now?"

Li Mu raised his head and looked at Xiang Dairu.

"It's the Gray Grassland. The Gray Grassland is very big..."

"Mu'er, it's useless. If you don't know how to cross the gray grassland, you can't find Rannu's royal court."

At this time, King Yan spoke.

Obviously, he thought that Li Mu was looking for the place where the Ran Nu people lived because of the conversation between the two during the day.

"I have been to that grassland three times and almost couldn't come back. We should consider this matter carefully."

The King of Yan only thought that Li Mu was a young man full of youthful vigor.

Now he has Zatu in his hand. Li Mu also captured a little prince of the Snow Wolf Clan, who is now in the hands of the Dark Ice Guards.

Given time, there will be no problem finding a way to cross the gray grassland.

But certainly not now.

You know, even Xiang Dairu didn't know how to cross that grassland.

Xiang Meng was a pampered little black fat man who not only knew nothing, but also looked like a fool who would never betray Ran Nu.

If Xiang Dairu hadn't protected him, the King of Yan would have wanted to give him two big slaps in the face long ago.

"Auntie Ru, is there a statue similar to the sea of ​​flowers in this place?"

Li Mu asked. At this moment, his mind was full of the matter of sealing the eye of the formation, and he didn't listen to what King Yan said at all.

"You little brat, why are you so stubborn? If you have the time, drink with me..."

"Your Majesty, Mu'er has his own plans!"

Prince Yan was about to speak, but Xiang Dairu stopped him.

Seeing this, King Yan waved his hand and said without any interest:

"I thought it was something serious. I'm going back to sleep now!"

Xiang Dairu saw that the King of Yan was actually acting like a child, smiled bitterly and shook his head, then grabbed Li Mu's wrist, drew a full semicircle, and then spoke:

"The Gray Grassland is very big, but I don't know exactly how big it is. The place you pointed to is probably deep in the Gray Grassland. No one knows whether there is a statue or not."

"We just need to verify our guess now. There's no need to take risks."

Li Mu secretly made a move.

His eyes slowly moved downwards to the southeast, looking at the pattern embroidered with light blue threads. He thought it should be a place like a lake or the sea, and asked:

"What is this place?"

However, after waiting for a long time, there was no response.

I looked up in confusion and saw Xiang Dairu anxiously searching for the bamboo slips at his feet.

As if he noticed Li Mu's gaze, he looked up and said awkwardly:

"After all, I am not from the Xing Dynasty..."

???

"What do you mean?"

Li Mu naturally didn't know that Xiang Dairu's original intention was to ease the relationship with Li Mu.

After all, she had thought about killing Li Mu before.

When he first heard that Li Mu was asking questions about Ran Nu, he became confident and prepared to answer Li Mu's questions.

But she couldn't answer the second question.

Then, it went straight into her blind spot of knowledge.

She knew a lot about the culture of the Xing Dynasty and could recite the Confucian classics by heart.

Even embroidery is no problem for her. This feng shui map was embroidered by her stitch by stitch.

However, being able to embroider is one thing, and not being able to show it off is another.

"The entire southeast of Xing Dynasty is Wangchuan. The place your highness pointed to must be Guixu."

At this time, Liu Mingyan's voice sounded in Li Mu's ears.
