After transmigrating the book, the petite villain became my puppy hook

Hongxiu watched Mu Qiaoxi's figure disappear through the gap in the door of the dyeing workshop.

Mu Qiaoxi was shocked when she heard the slamming of the door closing, but she still walked in bravely.

The dyehouse is actually filled with huge dyeing vats, with many bamboo poles carrying shade-dried fabrics of either dark or light colors, swaying in the wind like ghosts.

It was a secluded place, so quiet that Mu Qiaoxi could hear her own heartbeat.

The smell of dye made Mu Qiaoxi's nose itchy. As if she was worried about disturbing something, Mu Qiaoxi suppressed a sneeze.

She covered her nose and looked around, but found no sign of the prince.

"Gudu."

A sudden slight sound startled Mu Qiaoxi. It was the sound of water bubbles bursting from a large dyeing vat not far away.

With her heart in her throat, she walked toward that place with tiny steps.

The dye vat was large, and the cyan dye was so rich that she could even see the face reflected on the water.

"Curiosity killed the cat, Miss Mu Da, be careful."

Suddenly there was a leisurely joking sound from behind.

Mu Qiaoxi was so frightened that she almost lost her legs and sat on the ground. If she hadn't firmly grasped the edge of the dye vat, she might have made a fool of herself.

After being frightened, she became angry. Mu Qiaoxi turned around and leaned against the dye vat to see clearly who was coming.

The visitor was wearing a black robe, with silver threads embroidering dark patterns of dragon scales on the corners and neckline, and the cold breath was all in it.

This person is the current prince, Si Shaoqing.

Seeing that Mu Qiaoxi was frightened like a frightened rabbit and couldn't reply, Si Shaoqing put his hands behind his hands and had a mocking smile on his face.

"The eldest lady of Muhou Mansion is not as famous as your reputation."

Mu Qiaoxi's reputation for being domineering seems to be inconsistent with the rumors at the moment.

Hearing that Si Shaoqing was mocking her, Mu Qiaoxi was extremely dissatisfied when she was frightened, but now she retorted without any sign of weakness.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, always likes to show off, show up secretly, and take pleasure in surprising people?"

Si Shaoqing raised his eyebrows slightly, "Tsk, how can a rabbit still show its teeth?"

Mu Qiaoxi had a bad premonition, a feeling like being treated as prey by some kind of predator.

She felt sweat beading on her cheeks. Si Shaoqing noticed her panic and walked closer to her step by step.

He took out the handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to Mu Qiaoxi. His gentle smile did not reach his eyes.

"Why are you panicking, young lady? I was just joking with you. It was out of character to scare you."

Mu Qiaoxi avoided looking and wiped his face with the handkerchief a few times: "Thank you, Your Highness."

Before Mu Qiaoxi could finish her words, Si Shaoqing's hand firmly grasped Mu Qiaoxi's chin.

The elegant and friendly appearance just now seemed to be just a hazy illusion, and in just a moment, it all turned into murderous intent.

"Mu Qiaoxi, you are so brave. Do you know what kind of crime it is to shake the country's foundation and slander the prince? The Muhou Mansion used to be full of loyal people, but now it will be destroyed in your hands?"

Mu Qiaoxi felt that the whole bone of her jaw was about to be crushed, and she had to hold back her tears.

She opened Si Shaoqing's hand and sneered unceremoniously.

"The Holy One rules the world with benevolence and virtue. I wonder what I have done wrong to make His Highness the Crown Prince so murderous?"

What Si Shaoqing was talking about was the letter she sent to the East Palace.

Those two words, I'm afraid Si Shaoqing would only dare to tear them into pieces and swallow them, but not even dare to reveal them at all.

Si Shaoqing was even more angry. This cunning woman clearly knew what he was talking about, so she just pretended to be confused. Such a posture that would rather bend than bend was really tricky.

Mu Qiaoxi rubbed her sore chin and glanced at Si Shaoqing with disdainful eyes.

He is really capable of attacking women.

When Si Shaoqing touched this gaze, strangely, the burning anger in his heart suddenly died down. He took two steps back and played with the dragon jade on his waist with his long knuckles.

He blew a whistle gently, and suddenly two secret guards appeared in front of the dyeing vat. Mu Qiaoxi thought they were going to attack her, and she was so nervous that she even thought about how to defend herself.

Unexpectedly, the two secret guards put their hands into the dye vat.

Mu Qiaoxi was curious. She heard a noise in the dye vat when she came in. If Si Shaoqing hadn't interrupted her, she might have found out.

After the secret guards set up the things in the tank, Mu Qiaoxi realized what Si Shaoqing was referring to when he said "curiosity killed the cat" just now.

The person soaking in the dye vat was not someone else, but a person, half drowned in dye. Looking at the clothes he wore, he was a eunuch with a python pattern embroidered on his chest. He must be a eunuch from the East Palace!

At that time, Si Shaoqing's faint voice sounded from behind again: "This person worked with you to secretly deliver a letter to the East Palace. I am an upright person and should be punished with this punishment. What do you think, Miss Mu Da?"

The implication is that even the people in the East Palace have been punished, and the next person is Mu Qiaoxi.

The threat was already flowing out of his eyes. Mu Qiaoxi thought that he was extremely afraid and mustered up a surge of courage.

"If His Royal Highness really dares, why bother putting on such a scene for me to see?"

Mu Qiaoxi's tone was calm, but the two secret guards who had been following the prince all year round were shocked.

Whether it is saying that the prince has concerns or that the prince is inconvenienced, you actually say that the prince does not dare?

Before Si Shaoqing could speak, Mu Qiaoxi followed closely and said, "I can deliver letters to the prince so easily, and others must be able to do the same. Since my daughter dares to come to meet, she will not leave room for herself, and

If my daughter is willing to have a showdown with the prince, she will have no objection to the prince."

After saying these words, the expression on Si Shaoqing's face changed vaguely, but it was quickly hidden beneath the surface.

Mu Qiaoxi knew his identity, but she also acknowledged his identity. Every word she said expressed surrender.

It was just such a woman's surrender that made Si Shaoqing sneer in his heart. He was afraid that if he really accepted it, he would never have peace in the future.

He waved his hand, and the two secret guards took away the dead eunuch and disappeared into a hidden place.

After realizing that the pressure around Si Shaoqing had dissipated a lot, Mu Qiaoxi's heart calmly returned to her stomach.

"Although Miss Mu Da is a loyal minister, her heart is unpredictable. I want to be sincere."

Sincerity? Huh?

Mu Qiaoxi complained a thousand times in her heart, who said she really wanted to do things for the prince? She just wanted to look familiar in front of the prince so that she could save her life in the future!

"Your Highness, it's okay to say so." The prince had already spoken, and Mu Qiaoxi could only pretend to want to prove herself.

"Next month is my birthday. Every year, Jiangnan Weaving presents python robes. If not this year, let Miss Mu Da start the work and embroider one for me personally so that I can wear it when I worship the heaven."

Mu Qiaoxi pretended to be overjoyed: "Thank you, Prince, for your love."

Seeing that Si Shaoqing didn't speak for a long time, Mu Qiaoxi quietly walked out of the dyeing workshop.

Looking at Mu Qiaoxi's leaving figure, Si Shaoqing smiled lightly and whispered: "Teach her a lesson."

Several black shadows suddenly flashed around him.

As soon as Mu Qiaoxi arrived at the door, she heard a breaking sound, felt a pain in the back of her head, and fainted on the ground.
