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

Chapter 472: See 'Lu Jianjia' again.

Half an hour later.

Saint Street.

Li Mu finally got on the carriage and secretly left the mansion through the back door.

He didn't mean to put on airs in front of those who came to thank him.

But, I don’t know how to face those people at all.

In Li Mu's opinion, if it weren't for his inaction, this would never have happened.

In the carriage, Liu Minglan lowered her head, bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth, and glanced at Li Mu from time to time.

Outside the car, the driver was Liu Mingzhe.

"Prince, we've arrived at Saint Street." Liu Mingzhe knocked lightly on the car door, his tone somewhat awkward.

"Sir, carriages are not allowed to pass within a hundred meters of the saint's statue. We have to walk there."

Li Mu nodded, looked at Liu Minglan, frowned and said,

"Sixth Miss, there is no need to mention the favor of saving my life again. Goodbye."

"Wait, wait a minute!" Liu Minglan reached out and grabbed Li Mu's clothes, pursed her lips, closed her eyes and said,

"Your Highness, can I go to Linglong Waterside Pavilion?"

"No!" Li Mu refused without hesitation, pulled the hem of his clothes out of Liu Minglan's hands, and walked out of the carriage without looking back.

"Brother Liu, please drive the car for me yourself. I won't see you off." Li Mu bowed to Liu Mingzhe and turned to leave.

Liu Mingzhe glanced at his distraught sister in the carriage, a hint of disrecognition flashed in his eyes, and he quickly spoke,

"Your Highness, I wonder how Mingyan is doing these days."

Hearing this, Li Mu paused and turned to look at Liu Mingzhe.

Liu Mingzhe gritted his teeth and said,

"Your Highness, Mingyan is a member of the Liu family after all..."

"You want to take her back?" Li Mu frowned slightly, and his tone turned slightly colder.

"No, it's not." Liu Mingzhe shuddered and explained quickly.

"Mingyan and Xiaoliu have a good relationship. I was wondering if Xiaoliu could visit her from time to time."

"You mean I'm keeping her under house arrest... Never mind, go if you want." Li Mu sighed slightly, then strode away.

When he was in the Southern Region before, the Liu family had come to his house many times, wanting to take Liu Mingyan back.

But they were all beaten back by Mrs. Lu.

When Li Mu found out about it later, he couldn't help laughing. He wanted to ask why Madam Lu was in the house, but he forgot about it later.

When Liu Mingzhe heard Li Mu's agreement, he was about to thank him, but when he looked up, he could not find Li Mu.

He looked at Liu Minglan in the carriage and said unhappily,

"Aren't you usually very powerful? You even dare to contradict your father, but why are you like a kitten when you see His Royal Highness?"

"Brother... am I, am I very annoying?" Liu Minglan pursed her lips, grasped the hem of her clothes tightly with both hands, and asked in a mosquito-like voice.

"It's just not the right time today, don't think too much." Liu Mingzhe shook his head, a look of heartache on his face, and spoke to comfort her.

"The prince is obviously in a bad mood today, you can go another day..."

"Who said I was going to find him!" Liu Minglan frowned suddenly and said angrily.

"Okay, okay, if you don't want to go, then don't go..."

However, before Liu Mingzhe could finish, Liu Minglan pursed her lips and said shyly,

"I, I'm going to see my fourth sister!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Mingzhe's mouth twitched, and he sincerely realized what it meant that girls should not be kept when they grow up.

He secretly wondered if his three-and-a-half-year-old daughter would be in the same situation thirteen years later.

Then, would the man he likes be like Li Mu...

Eh?

"The prince is only in his early twenties this year, so thirteen years seems to be..."

"..."

In front of the statue of the saint.

Li Mu stared at the stone statue in front of him without blinking, with a look of doubt in his eyes.

Isn’t it said that the Sixth Emperor is a woman?

But the statue in front of me, no matter how I look at it, is a handsome man.

Even the Adam's apple is lifelike.

"This was carved by Your Highness using the star meteorite, not the flesh and blood statue."

At this time, Jun Jiuling's voice sounded in Li Mu's mind.

Li Mu understood and immediately asked in his heart,

"Where is the real holy image? I'll take you there."

"No need..." Jun Jiuling muttered silently, and then seemed a little angry and said unhappily,

"Why don't these people bow to His Majesty? It's as if they didn't see him!"

"After all, it's a statue of a Qin Dynasty emperor. It's great that it hasn't been demolished."

Li Mu explained in his mind. At this moment, a commotion was heard from a distance.

"Master, are you really going to demolish it? This is the best restaurant on Saint Street."

"Tear it down! Tear it down quickly! I want to keep this statue of the exiled immortal here!"

"Master Cheng is mighty!"

"Thank you, thank you, ah...hahahaha!"

Li Mu raised his eyebrows, thinking to himself, is there such an arrogant "master" in the capital?

They actually want to demolish the restaurant and build a statue of a god.

"Little Muzi, come on, there's something exciting to watch!" When Jun Jiuling heard the voice, he immediately became eager to try.

However, Li Mu's figure flashed and he left here, leaping towards the outer city.

"Eh? Xiao Muzi, the fun is over there, where are you going?" Jun Jiuling seemed a little jumpy.

But Li Mu was too lazy to pay attention to her and said unhappily,

"What's so good about this kind of excitement? Also, from now on, you can only ask for one thing every day!"

"You, you don't keep your promise. You swore to the heavens, be careful to be struck by lightning!"

"Little Muzi, I order you to go back immediately and drive away the villain who wants to demolish the house! Little Muzi! Li Mu!"

However, Li Mu ignored it. He had already tried his best to fulfill his promise.

Amid Jun Jiuling's endless complaints, Li Mu came to the outer city.

Of course, he came here to visit Ge Peining at the doctor's house.

By the way, let Jun Jiuling take a look at Sister Ning'er's mother and ask her if she has any way to wake the person up.

However, as soon as he arrived at the door of the clinic, he saw a familiar figure.

"Lu Jianjia?"

In the crowd, Lu Jianjia's belly was slightly bulging, and the one supporting her was the honest-looking servant.

Seeing the two of them talking in such an intimate manner, Li Mu shook his head and smiled bitterly.

It was obvious that he could no longer hide his true feelings. No wonder he heard that Prime Minister Lu was wandering around the streets with a sad face all day long.

No father would be able to accept this.

Li Mu walked quickly towards the two of them, bowed and said,

"Ms. Lu, congratulations... I wonder when my Shisui can be returned to me..."

As Li Mu was speaking, his voice suddenly stopped. He felt as if his brain was hit by a huge hammer. He stood there in a daze, staring blankly at Lu Jianjia in front of him.

"Prince, Prince...I greet your Highness the Prince!"

"I greet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Xiaoli and Miaohu were also stunned when they saw Li Mu, and hurriedly saluted Li Mu.

"Slave girl! You are a maid in the Lu Mansion!" Li Mu said inwardly.

Why didn’t I think of it before?

"Your servant Xiaoli was indeed the young lady's personal maid before."

Xiaoli opened her mouth and subconsciously took two steps back.

"Hehe, your young lady is really... Forget it, when will Shisui return it to me?" Li Mu secretly cursed himself for being stupid for not even being able to see through such a simple lie before.

But it’s also my own fault for having a bad reputation, not Miss Lu’s.

Xiaoli glanced at Li Mu's expression and a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes.

I thought Li Mu was here to call me to task, but I didn't expect him to have this attitude. I spoke cautiously,

"The prince's weapon is in Miss's possession. Didn't Miss return it to the prince?"

Hearing this, Li Mu nodded slightly, turned around and walked into the clinic.

Since he knew that the real thing was with Lu Jianjia, Li Mu would not make things difficult for a pregnant maid.

Then just send someone to Lu Mansion to get it back.

At this moment, Xiaoli suddenly called out to Li Mu, "Your Highness!"

Li Mu turned around with confusion in his eyes.

Then Xiaoli asked, "Since Your Highness knows that it is all a misunderstanding, I wonder if the engagement can be saved..."

Xiaoli really couldn't bear to see her young lady looking so distraught.

Especially when he heard that Lu Jianjia had said before that she wanted to be a maid in Linglong Waterside just to stay with Li Mu, his heart ached.

If she had been able to persuade him a little more before, or had stuck to her original idea, things wouldn't have turned out like this.

Li Mu looked at Xiaoli strangely and said indifferently, "It can't be done. After all, it is an imperial decree."
