Chapter 135 The Prime Minister is actually a woman, and His Majesty the Emperor drools over her.
"Mumu, I'm sorry! I'm just angry that you have someone else in your heart."
He sat down and pulled her into his arms, but she pounded on his chest, refusing to let him have his way.
"Damn Mu Chenfeng, I've already explained. You're my husband, why don't you believe me? Why do you have to find me a policeman?"
Struggling was useless, so she simply wiped all her tears and snot on his chest.
"But I've never heard the word 'husband' before."
Mu Wanwan cried as she spoke, “Last night you naughtily kept asking me who you were. I saw the word ‘husband’ in an unofficial history. The women there called their husbands ‘husband’ or ‘father.’ Last night I was so confused from being teased by you that I couldn’t think of anything to say, so I just said those two words, and you still misunderstood me like this.”
Mu Chenfeng then realized that he had misunderstood Mu Wanwan and that he had used the two words that Mu Wanwan disliked the most.
"Ding! Favorability increased by 10, current favorability is 70, progress of the childbirth task is 0." Piggy bluntly announced the progress of the childbirth task, thus reminding Mu Wanwan.
"Then from now on, Mu Mu will call me husband, okay?"
Mu Wanwan snorted coldly, "I don't want to call you husband! In unofficial histories, husbands are so good to their women. They live in a society that practices monogamy, and they only marry one wife in their lifetime, holding hands and growing old together. You are different from them. You have three palaces and six courtyards. Maybe in the future, you will have so many concubines that they could line up on a street."
Hearing her say that, he longed for monogamy, which could be considered as planting the seeds for his eventual dissolution of the harem.
"Mumu, will you just call me husband?"
He can't promise her monogamy right now, but he really wants her to call him husband.
"So envious!"
Mu Wanwan's lips curled slightly; if she were to act any more coy, she would be overdoing it.
"Honey, my husband~"
"Eh~"
The two were in high spirits after clearing up the misunderstanding. At noon, Mu Chenfeng invited her to have lunch together, as he really didn't want to be apart.
Mu Wanwan had been leaving the palace for several days in a row, returning to the palace almost every day after dark. However, Mu Chenfeng waited at the mansion for a long time today but she did not return.
He looked out the door countless times, his anxiety burning so intense that he disregarded the fact that he was in the Prime Minister's residence and strode away through the main gate.
Eunuch Qian knelt to the side, barely daring to breathe. The men he had sent to protect Mu Wanwan were all kneeling on the ground, heads bowed, not daring to speak loudly.
"They're all a bunch of useless trash. How could I have lost all the good people I was supposed to protect? Huh?"
Mu Chenfeng looked down at the kneeling crowd. They were all fine a few days ago, but now they've disappeared.
His Mumu could not possibly have disappeared without a reason.
"Immediately send more people, even if it means turning every place upside down, you must find him."
The kneeling guards trembled and responded in unison.
After everyone dispersed, Mu Chenfeng quickly changed his clothes and went out, and even Eunuch Qian couldn't stop him.
"Your Majesty, I know you care about Prime Minister Mu. I believe she will be safe and sound. You must not go out to search for her."
Eunuch Qian earnestly advised him, saying that he was the ruler of a country, and if something went wrong, the whole country would be doomed!
At this moment, Mu Chenfeng was concerned about Mu Wanwan's safety and could not listen to Eunuch Qian's advice. He waved Eunuch Qian away.
"If Mu Mu were to meet with misfortune, what would be the point of me being the emperor? I must find her immediately and ensure that nothing happens to her."
Eunuch Qian jogged to catch up, waving his whisk to signal the guards protecting the emperor to follow.
After changing into plain clothes, Mu Chenfeng searched all the places Mu Wanwan had been and asked passersby and ordinary people, who all told him that Mu Wanwan had left on time.
But so far no one has returned to the palace. He has a strong feeling that this time it is definitely not because of some business delay that they have not returned to the palace.
Mu Wanwan woke up groggily, her head aching and her mind spinning. She sat up and realized that everything around her seemed so unfamiliar.
"Prime Minister Mu, you're awake!"
In the very center of the room was a round table, on which a candle was burning brightly.
A handsome man was leisurely drinking what appeared to be tea or water, watching her with a smile.
Mu Wanwan rubbed her eyes to get a better look at the man's face. "Zhao Yihan?"
Shouldn't she be on her way back to the palace? What's going on here?
"Prime Minister Mu must be sleeping really well. He slept until the third of the night. My butt is sore from sitting here."
Mu Wanwan didn't know why she was here, or why the man in front of her was sitting in the room.
When she got out of bed and bent down to put on her shoes, she realized that she was actually wearing women's clothing.
"My hair!"
She reached out and touched her hair, which was no longer the same as when she went out today.
"Zhao Yihan, what do you mean?"
Zhao Yihan slowly approached her, looking down at her mysteriously, his fingertips hooking her chin, forcing her to look up and meet his gaze.
"I never imagined that Prime Minister Mu, who usually commands respect in the officialdom, is actually a woman."
Mu Wanwan pushed him away forcefully, hugged herself, and glared fiercely at Zhao Yihan, "What did you do to me?"
Zhao Yihan laughed heartily, a hint of amusement in his voice, "Guess how I knew you were a woman?"
Did he take off his clothes for him? Change his clothes? Then that's it.
"Zhao Yihan, I admire you as a gentleman, but I never expected you to take advantage of someone in distress. I despise you."
Zhao Yihan wasn't annoyed at all; in fact, he was quite amused by her angry expression.
"Prime Minister Mu, you are a man by nature, so it was perfectly reasonable for me to help you change your clothes. Who knew you were actually a woman? You can't blame me for that!"
"you……"
She pointed angrily at Zhao Yihan with her slender hand, too angry to say more than a few words.
In ancient times, a woman's reputation was extremely important. If it was touched or misrepresented by someone other than her husband, she would be drowned in a pig cage.
Although she was a modern woman, she didn't know how she would face Mu Chenfeng in this wicked old society.
"Now that you've seen my body, I might as well not live anymore."
After saying that, she didn't even bother to put on her shoes, and got up to bump into the pillar next to her.
"Master, no!" Piggy cried out. If Mu Wanwan killed her directly, the mission would end immediately, all her previous efforts would be wasted, and there would be no hope of resurrection.
Zhao Yihan, who was still watching the spectacle with amusement, never expected that Mu Wanwan would be so headstrong, actually going to commit suicide right after saying she didn't want to live anymore.
He quickly stepped in front of the pillar, and Mu Wanwan crashed headfirst into Zhao Yihan's stomach.
"Well……"
Mu Wanwan charged at the pillar with all her might, and Zhao Yihan took the brunt of her impact, groaning in pain.
She collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down her face. "Why did you stop me? You just wanted me dead anyway. My innocence is gone, so I might as well die and be done with it."
