Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 158

~ YUE WANG ARRIVES ~ 

Steward Qin helped to set up the swing. Looking at the careful figures on the lake, he couldn’t help but smile. In the past few days, Jingling City had snowed heavily, and the water in Jin Xiu Garden had frozen, too. Miss Mu took those apprentices to play on the ice. She thought that they looked so skillful on the outside. But when they got to the ice, they became rolling gourds. However, the more they were like that, the more vigorous they were to play. Without Miss Mu’s protection, they needed to go up and fight. 

Yu Yi also stood beside him. “Steward Qin, tomorrow is New Year’s Day. I wonder how Wang Ye is doing?”

Steward Qin sighed, “Wang Ye will only go back once on the birthday of the Emperor. Otherwise, he will stay in Western Guangdong, even on New Year’s Day. He will spend this year the same way he did before. I only want to have some ginger tea and the silver taels I sent over so he can have a good New Year.”

“Ai, if only Wang Ye could come here.”

“What nonsense are you spouting? Why would Wang Ye come here?”

Yu Yi suddenly widened his eyes as if he had seen something unbelievable. He looked behind Steward Qin and shouted, “Wang Ye?”

Yu Yi immediately went to pull Steward Qin over, “Wang Ye… Behind you! Look back quickly!”

Steward Qin turned his head, and upon seeing it, his eyes widened, and his mouth agape: “Wang … Wang Ye?”

Behind him, the one that wore a fox fur robe and had eyes filled with a biting cold aura, he was none other than Yue Wang!

Steward Qin was stunned for a moment, and then he went up to greet him with a face full of joy: “Greetings, Master.”

“Uncle Qin, quickly get up. Why are you outside?” Steward Qin’s back was not good. It was the root of his illness from the time when he was taking care of him. Therefore, when he needed someone to guard Jiangnan, Eunuch Cheng insisted on Steward Qin coming so he could feel better.

The smile on Steward Qin’s face became bigger. “My waist was fine a long time ago. It’s all thanks to Miss Mu. Even though Miss Mu is still young, her medical skills are extremely profound. With just a few needles, more than half of the injury on my waist has healed.”

Suddenly, from a distance away, he heard a burst of cheers: “Miss, come down quickly!”

“We are waiting for you. We must win it back today!”

Besides the lake, Mu Yunyao had just arrived when Jin Lan, Jin Qiao, and the others provoked her. She couldn’t help but laugh out loud, “You must all think this through. If you continue to lose, I’ll have won all the silver you’ve earned in the past few months. When that time comes, don’t cry!”

“Miss, please do not look down on us. We have spent the last two days practicing, so we must win your silver back. At that time, do not go back on your word!”

“Don’t worry. If you win, I’ll take out another 100 taels of silver to give you guys as a reward.”

“Alright!”

Noticing Wang Ye’s gaze, Steward Qin could not help but slightly narrow his eyes. “Wang Ye, this is Miss Mu and several maids playing on the ice. This old servant is rather interesting to look at. Would you like to go and have a look as well?”

Yu Heng grinned from the side and thought to himself: Wang Ye came all the way here in the middle of the winter, and people were almost freezing this winter. Why would he still feel in the mood to see a few girls playing on the ice?

Before he could finish his thought, he saw Yue Wang walk towards the lakeside. He was stunned on the spot and could not help but look at Steward Qin foolishly: “Steward Qin, this …” Yu Yi hurriedly stepped forward and pulled him back. He smiled at Steward Qin and said, “Don’t worry. I’ll go over to the side and teach him a lesson.” In these few days, he finally understood something. When Miss Mu got involved, Steward Qin was exceptionally unreasonable. If Yu Heng said something inappropriate, Steward Qin would clean up him secretly.

Steward Qin nodded his head before turning around and following Yue Wang’s footsteps and walked to the pavilion at the side of the lake.

This pavilion is slightly higher, so he can clearly see the scenery of the lake. On the other hand, if the people in the lake didn’t look up and pay attention, they would not have noticed the situation in the pavilion.

Yue Wang sat in the pavilion, but his eyes focused on the situation in the lake.

Mu Yunyao had changed into a new set of clothes to make it convenient for ice play. Although it looked like a long skirt, the hem of her dress had tightened a little. It was not as complicated as a skirt. Moreover, it was slightly shortened, revealing the whole foot surface, which was convenient for her to walk on the ice.

She stretched her body a little before putting on her skates and walked into the lake. She looked at the female disciples provocatively, “Have you prepared all the silver taels? If you can’t get the silver, please be careful. I will beat you.”

Nan’er, watching the game by the lake, quickly brought over a wooden box and opened it to reveal some scattered silver taels. “Miss, I’ve helped you guard it. All the sisters have put away their silver taels.”

Mu Yunyao nodded in praise. “Well done, let me win all their silver taels, and then I’ll reward you as a gift to buy some sweets.”

Nan’er was so happy that he jumped up and down on the spot. “Okay, thank you very much, Miss.”

Jin Lan, Jin Qiao, and the others on the side disagreed. “Miss, we haven’t even had a match yet. How do you know you’re going to win?”

“Then, we will see the truth.”

Everyone glided to the southern side of the lake and with a single command. Mu Yunyao nimbly and agilely moved forward on the ice like a spirit swallow, throwing apprentices behind her off with ease.

Her figure was remarkably swift and light, and when she moved, her skirt fluttered like a flower blooming by the wind. She was incomparably beautiful.

When Jin Lan, Jin Qiao, and the others arrived at the northern side of the lake, Mu Yunyao was already waiting for them with a smile on her face.

“Miss, we’ll compete in three days. When the time comes, we’ll definitely be able to beat you.”

Mu Yunyao chuckled. Nan’er on the side had already run over to her side. Holding the wooden case with a face full of joy, he said, “Miss is really amazing. You’ve won again!”

Mu Yunyao nodded at them. Seeing that Jin Lan and the rest were still unwilling to give up, the enthusiasm in their hearts also aroused: “Do you think it’s just faster than anyone else on the ice? I am in a good mood today, so I’ll show you some tricks. Take a look and learn.” 

“Trick? What tricks can there be on the ice?”

Mu Yunyao smiled but didn’t say anything. She walked forward a long distance and pulled down a red silk curtain from the lakeside. Looking at the length, she nodded with satisfaction. Afterward, she wrapped the silk curtain around her arm and slid it open. Her speed was so fast, and the silk curtains flew away like clouds. She seemed flying on the ice, and the red silk in her hand danced with her, like a red lotus blossoming under the sun, so beautiful that it caused people to hold their breath. Her movements were sometimes hurried and sometimes slow. She was like a thunderbolt that had happened, released from its rage. She was like a clear light of the river and sea, and the deep lake surface blossomed with dazzling splendor!

Gradually, everyone’s breathing became lighter, leaving only Mu Yunyao, who had suddenly started spinning on the lake’s surface in their eyes. They didn’t know how to describe it, but in the end, they could only think of one beautiful word, the beauty is unparalleled!

In the end, Mu Yunyao stopped her movements and let go of the red silk with a slight gasp. Seeing that everyone hadn’t recovered from their shock yet, she couldn’t help but smile proudly. “I said, all of you …” Suddenly, she felt watched. Before finishing her sentence, she looked around and narrowed her eyes. Yue Wang!
