Su Mu smiled. Thinking back to the funny story that Lin Yi had told her, he lowered his voice and said, "Your father was so good to you. He didn't even break your legs."

Liu Zichen choked and looked suspiciously at Su Mu. He didn't believe that Su Mu would know about these things.

Su Mu looked at him and said, "That's right, your stepmother."

Liu Zichen was indeed a bastard, but this bastard had followed his father. The Duke of Western Zhejiang was an inherited noble, and his fiefdom was so rich that he didn't need to worry about food or drinks. Liu Zichen and his father, even his grandfather, were all lustful lovers. It was a common thing to spend money on a beauty.

Liu Zichen was doted upon by his father. No matter what kind of woman he got into, the king would always clean up his butt for him. Even if Lin Yi wanted to do a play, it was not Liu Zichen's turn to go to jail. However, Liu Zichen was too cowardly. When he was captured, all he knew was that he had been wronged. He was the son of the Duke of Western Zhejiang, and he had threatened the bailiff.

Bao Fusheng was annoyed by his words, but also dissatisfied that he was relying on his power to bully others. Thus, he said that he wanted to serve him with a heavy punishment.

However, before the punishment even landed on him, Liu Zichen had already blurted out all the wicked deeds he had done in his life, including the matter of him having an affair with his stepmother, through snot and tears.

No matter how much the Duke of Western Zhejiang pampered his son, he would not allow his son to touch his woman. Upon learning of this matter, the Prefecture Overseer immediately gave up on the idea of keeping Liu Zichen in prison.

Liu Zichen stayed in jail for a month. At first, it was just a plan, but later, the king ordered him to stay in jail for a full month to reflect on it.

The bailiff knew that Liu Zichen would be released sooner or later, so he naturally wanted to serve him well. When he got out, he could support Liu Zichen. However, as a bailiff, Liu Zichen only had so much money, so how could he afford to be a popinjay? Liu Zichen can eat poor a yamen runner.

Since they were forced to do so, the bailiffs had no choice but to stop their thoughts and look after Liu Zichen as a common suspect.

Liu Zichen ate chaff of food until his face turned blue. He had not touched a woman for an entire month.

After exiting the room, Liu Zichen realized that he had actually stopped thinking about women. Every time he smelled a woman's makeup, he couldn't help but recall the man's cold scent when he was drunk.

Liu Zichen had seen countless women and was able to tell at a glance that the man was a delicate woman. However, since he had never raised his hand, Liu Zichen couldn't help but suspect if he had changed his taste.

As a result, Liu Zichen secretly sent people to find a catamite. He didn't know if it was a good thing or bad thing, but Liu Zichen still didn't have a hard time.

Until one night, Liu Zichen dreamt of Su Mu. Su Mu wore a thin layer of Luo Chang's clothes in his dream, and had a seductive posture. When he woke up, Liu Zichen found that his crotch had become wet.

Liu Zichen had to admit, his heart began to stir.

In order to find Su Mu, Liu Zichen had searched through the entire Wu City, but Su Mu seemed to have grown wings and could not be found.

"Whose girl are you?" Liu Zichen ignored Su Mu's mocking gaze and asked.

"Why do you ask?" Su Mu narrowed his eyes and a wary expression appeared on his face.

"Of course it's a marriage proposal." Liu Zichen said in a matter-of-fact manner, "I've already hugged you, so I'm naturally responsible."

Qingfeng was sitting to the side and drinking water. Hearing what was said, he choked on the water in his throat and could not help but bend down to cough.

Seeing that Qingfeng was coughing so uncomfortably, Su Mu quickly patted her back to help her calm down.

Su Mu was also shocked by Liu Zichen's words and didn't know what to say.

Suddenly, a commotion sounded from not too far away. Su Mu looked over and saw a girl wearing a bright red dress. That girl was as dazzling as the sun.

"That's Hu Chi." Liu Zichen leaned his head over and said, "It looks good, but its personality is too fierce. It's just like a wild horse. Normal people can't control it."

"What? You've tried?" Qingfeng asked. She had never seen a man like Liu Zichen who could perfectly fuse lust and foolishness together, creating a strange and adorable feeling.

Liu Zichen raised his head, pleased with himself. "Of course, among the top ten beauties of Jiangnan, Hu Chi is only ranked sixth. The ones in front of her are all my soulmates. I've never seen her so fierce. "

Qingfeng could not help but laugh. While this person said he wanted to marry Su Mu, he flaunted himself in front of Su Mu to show off his close female friends. It was unknown how his head grew.

"Liu Zichen, do you think I'm deaf?" As a child in the military, Huzi hated social interaction the most. When she saw a group of women surrounding her, she started to get annoyed.

Although Hu Zi didn't know what Liu Zichen was talking about, he couldn't utter any good words from his mouth. With a wave of his hand, a long whip flew towards Liu Zichen.

The long whip was made from a hundred-year-old rattan. It was extremely thin and short, but it was extremely tough. There were still thorns on the whip, and if it was hit, it would lose a layer of skin.

Practicing martial arts was a bitter matter, so Liu Zichen naturally wouldn't go. Not to mention that he was pampered by the king. He had been accompanied by the king all year round in the martial arts world, so naturally, he wasn't afraid of anyone hurting him. This was also the reason why Liu Zichen had not felt the whip even though he had teased Hu Chi several times.

It was unknown if it was done on purpose or not, but the whip trembled midway and turned towards Su Mu's face.

The whip approached menacingly. Su Mu even heard the sound of wind breaking.

Most of the people present were women, so no one was able to react.

Just as the tail of the whip was about to hit Su Mu's face, a jade bone fan appeared and cut off the whip. The broken whip fell to the side powerlessly, but the Jade Bone Fan continued to strike the ice sculpture on Su Mu's back with lightning speed.

"Who is it!" Hu Chi was furious. She had spent a lot of effort to find the stinger of the whip, and it broke right here before it even got wet with blood.

Lin Yi looked coldly at Hu Chi and said, "How come I didn't know that they don't need to take off their weapons when they enter the Zhiyuan Palace?"

Wang Dong knelt down, "This subject has been negligent."

It was not Wang's place to do such things, but the man in charge was Wang's man.

Everyone kneeled down and cried out in unison, "Greetings, Your Majesty. Long live our Emperor."

Su Mu knelt at the side, not showing any excitement from having narrowly escaped death.

Hu Chi also knelt down, but his gaze was not obedient as he looked at Lin Yi.

"You can't accept it." Lin Yi said.

"Since you are the Son of Heaven, I will naturally accept it." Because he was the Son of Heaven, she didn't have the ability to refuse. She hated herself for being so weak and incompetent.

Lin Yi did not argue with her. He turned around and said something to the young eunuch behind him. The young eunuch lowered his head and left the garden.
