  Chapter 474 Mu Xiuzhu's Invitation

   His eyes froze slightly, how could it be him? !

  Passing by Junli, the man in gray couldn't help but turned his head and glanced at her.

   Those eyes are a bit familiar...

   Mo Changfeng's eyes showed a faint doubt. He didn't know many people, but he didn't have this person...

  Turning his head, watching the figure of the man quickly disappear from sight, Mo Changfeng then closed his eyes and quickly walked towards the foot of the mountain.

   I don’t know if I can make it at this time!

  —

  Junli galloped all the way, and it took ten days to arrive at the imperial city.

   In addition to leaving letters to Luo Yuyi and the others, Junli also sent many orders back to the dark pavilion along the way, hoping that the patriarch of the Yin clan will not act too soon!

  Before entering the imperial city, Jun Li had already taken off the mask on his face, changed into clean clothes, and then led the horse towards the city gate.

  When passing Qionghua Pavilion, Jun Li gave the horse to the boy without thinking, and walked in directly.

  As soon as he entered, he was immediately seen by the sharp-eyed bustard. Immediately greeted her with a smile on her face, "Miss Mu, are you here to find Qingcheng?"

  Jun Li nodded slightly, she often comes to Qionghua Pavilion, so most of the people here recognize her. What's more, she is still the master behind the scenes here.

   "Qingcheng went out two days ago. I don't know where he went. You also know that I don't care about Qingcheng's whereabouts." The bustard said pointedly.

  Junli nodded, "In that case, help me take care of the horse I brought." After saying that, an ingot of gold was thrown into the hands of the bustard.

  The bustard immediately smiled, and said in a flattering voice, "Miss Mu, don't worry, we will take care of your horse."

  Hearing this, Junli nodded, and then strode out of Qionghua Pavilion.

  Looking at the sky, Junli didn't feel a little hungry, so he went into a restaurant casually, ordered a few dishes, and ate slowly.

   After drinking and eating, Junli paid the money, turned around and walked out of the restaurant.

   "Miss Mu?"

  A faint, slightly cool, pleasant voice came from behind. Junli frowned, did the voice sound familiar?

   Turning around, I saw a man in a light blue dress sitting quietly in a wheelchair, looking at her with gentle but cold eyes.

  Junli raised his eyebrows, isn't this Mu Yao's younger brother?

  It seems... called Mu Xiuzhu...

   "Master Mu, what's the matter?" Junli's expression was still very gentle, after all, this Mu Xiuzhu did not give her a bad impression.

  Mu Xiuzhu shook his head slightly, "Just now when I came down from upstairs, I saw that Miss Mu was about to leave, so I took the liberty to yell, and I hope Miss Mu doesn't mind."

  Hearing this, Jun Li's eyes subconsciously fell on his lap. There was a trace of pity in the depths of his eyes.

  It is so cruel that such a man with such a glamor should spend his whole life in a wheelchair!

  Junli couldn't help feeling sorry for Mu Xiuzhu.

  If it is a normal man, with his elegance, he does not know how many women he would admire. Unfortunately…

  Junli often goes out of the palace, and he also hears more or less rumors about Mr. Mu's family.

   Just because of disability, everyone avoids it. Even in today's age of talking about marriage prematurely, he has become an old man...

  In Junli's view, this Mu Xiuzhu is only a little over twenty, not more than twenty-three at most. But such a person can be called old in this era.

   "Young Master Mu, you're being polite." Jun Li said, and then remembered something. Looking towards the plaque of the restaurant. Sure enough, it was Ruyunlai who met Mu Yao and Mu Xiuzhu last time.

   "Miss Mu just finished eating?" Mu Xiuzhu lowered his eyes slightly to hide the tension in his eyes, and said in a cold voice.

  Jun Li nodded, "Young Master Mu just finished his meal, too?" Jun Li's words were completely polite.

  But Mu Xiuzhu didn't care, the corners of his lips raised imperceptibly, "Well, if Miss Mu doesn't mind, please go upstairs. My sister will be there later."

  Hearing this, Junli understood. How dare this Mu Xiuzhu think that she came here to find his sister?

   But Mu Yao, it would be nice to meet you.

   "If that's the case, then I won't bother you." Jun Li said, looking at the wheelchair under Mu Xiuzhu, then at the stairs, and then at the young man with slender arms and legs behind Mu Xiuzhu. I couldn't help but sighed in my heart.

  Before Mu Xiuzhu could react, Jun Li lifted him up, including his wheelchair, and walked upstairs.

  Mu Xiuzhu came back to his senses after a slight astonishment, a faint blush involuntarily appeared on his pale cheeks.

   Soon, Junli put Mu Xiuzhu and the wheelchair on the corridor on the second floor. Looking at Mu Xiuzhu's uncomfortable face, Jun Li suddenly thought of something, with an apology on his face, "Just now, I was rude..."

  Hearing this, Mu Xiuzhu shook his head slightly, "It's Xiuzhu who troubled Miss Mu."

   After finishing speaking, the servant who followed quickly pushed the wheelchair, and slowly pushed it outside a private room under Mu Xiuzhu's instructions.

   Waiting for the boy to open the door, Mu Xiuzhu looked down at Junli slightly and said, "Miss Mu, please, sister will be there in a while."

   Junli nodded, and walked into the private room.

   Mu Xiuzhu sat in a wheelchair and did not go in. Instead, he directed to the servant at the side, "Go back home and tell your sister, just say that Miss Mu is here, and invite her to come."

   After finishing speaking, she said worriedly, "Remember to add an extra dress to my sister."

  Hearing the words, the servant nodded knowingly. Then he glanced at Mu Xiuzhu worriedly, and then walked downstairs quickly.

  Seeing this, Mu Xiuzhu couldn't help but smile slightly.

  Originally, Mu Yao didn't intend to come, but he wanted to keep Junli in order to have an excuse. Mu Xiuzhu had no choice but to find such a reason, and secretly ordered to invite Mu Yao.

  After everything was done, Mu Xiuzhu slowly pushed the wheelchair and entered the private room by himself.

  Come to the table and pour a cup of tea for Junli. Then he lowered his eyes and stopped talking.

  The atmosphere between the two of them suddenly became a little delicate, and neither of them took the initiative to speak.

until-

   "Master Mu, there is no need to add more tea." Seeing Mu Xiuzhu pouring tea for himself for the nth time, Junli couldn't help but said.

  Hearing this, Mu Xiuzhu put down the teapot, feeling a little embarrassed, and didn't know where to put his hands.

  Seeing this, the corners of Jun Li's lips could not help but curl slightly. Can't tell, this Mu Xiuzhu is quite simple.

   There was no sound between the two again, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

  Junli got up suddenly, came to the window, looked out from the window, just in time to see the scene on the street below.

  Seeing that some of the wooden carvings on the window sill have been worn down, Junli guessed that someone must have put their hands here often and looked out at the street through it.

  The only one who would do this is Mu Xiuzhu.

   "Master Mu, do you often look at the streets below?" She asked softly.
