The Legend Zhuohua

Chapter 44

Mu Zhuohua's heart twitched violently and his breathing stagnated.

Liu Yan still had his eyes closed, but the corners of his lips were slightly curved: "Since you are here, why don't you speak?"

Only then did Mu Zhuohua squeeze out a trace of sarcasm: "The official thought that the prince was asleep and did not dare to disturb the prince."

Liu Yan slowly opened his eyes, glanced sideways at the man kneeling next to him, and said with a faint smile: "What do you dare not do?"

Mu Zhuohua laughed dryly: "The official is worried that the prince is not feeling well, so he sent medicine to the prince."

Liu Yan straightened his back, leaned back on the chair, and breathed an invisible sigh of relief: "It doesn't matter, I can still hold on." When Mu Zhuohua saw him stretching out his wrist, he stepped forward to take his pulse and examined it intently. Pulse. Liu Yan took advantage of the candlelight in the side hall and looked at Mu Zhuohua's side face without any trace. She was always smiling and playful, but it was rare to see her be so serious. Thinking that she was so serious and focused on him, Liu Yan's heart couldn't help but soften.

Mu Zhuohua gave up, took out the medicine bottle from the bottom of his sleeve, and said to Liu Yan: "Your Majesty, there are still ten pills in this medicine bottle, one pill a day. If you really feel uncomfortable, you can take one more pill a day."

Liu Yan took the medicine bottle. The celadon bottle was warmed by her body temperature. After handing the medicine bottle to Liu Yan, Mu Zhuohua turned around and poured a glass of water for Liu Yan to take.

Liu Yan enjoyed Mu Zhuohua's service with peace of mind. After swallowing the pill, he felt a warmth spread in his stomach, and then he teased: "I can't afford it if it's not profitable. I'm afraid this medicine won't be cheap."

Mu Zhuohua glanced at the corners of Liu Yan's moist lips, smiled awkwardly and said, "The prince is joking. This is what a lower official should do."

Liu Yan smiled slightly and said, "When did you start to have this awareness?"

Mu Zhuohua whispered: "Xiaguan has always been a good person..."

There seemed to be a hint of sigh in Liu Yan's laughter: "Mu Zhuohua, you don't have to."

"Huh?" Mu Zhuohua was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Liu Yan with some doubts in his eyes.

"Zhi Jian has already shown me the suicide note hidden in the box..." Liu Yan's expression darkened slightly, and his smile was a little bitter, "The death of the concubine has nothing to do with you. Your maternal grandfather's family is also a victim. This king will not vent his anger on you."

Mu Zhuohua whispered: "It's not because of this..."

Liu Yan added: "If you feel guilty because of the death of the late emperor, then you don't have to." Liu Yan explained, "The death of the late emperor... was an accident, and you also wanted to save people. I am not indifferent to right from wrong, so ...You don't have to deliberately try to please me."

Mu Zhuohua choked, lowered his head and pinched the corner of his clothes: "But the prince clearly wants to alienate me, isn't he angry..."

Before entering the palace, Liu Yan originally thought that he would be accused of regicide and rebellion, so he did not want to implicate Mu Zhuohua, so he did not let her follow him, but he did not expect that the situation would now be in his favor.

Liu Yan felt a little more relaxed and said with a faint smile: "You approached me just for the sake of the box. Since the purpose has been achieved, why should you hang on?"
