Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 433

~ IT’S HARD TO HELP THE VINEGAR JAR WHEN IT’S POURED ~ 

Mu Yunyao returned to her own courtyard, and just as she entered, she saw Jin Lan and Jin Qiao standing in the corridor with nervous expressions.

“What’s going on?”

Jin Lan glanced worriedly at Mu Yunyao and softly said, “Miss, His Royal Highness Yue Wang is inside.”

Mu Yunyao suddenly raised her gaze and her pupils abruptly constricted. The fingers that were holding onto the umbrella’s handle tightened uncontrollably. Her heart became colder than the snow and ice. “I’m going to go visit Grand Princess Yi De.” After which, she turned around and walked out.

The door was pushed open abruptly. Yue Wang walked out with long steps and blocked Mu Yunyao’s path. “Yunyao, where have you just gone?”

“Greetings to Your Royal Highness Yue Wang.”

Xu Qi walked out in a panic, her face slightly flushed, “Little Sister Yunyao, you’re back.”

Mu Yunyao did her best to restrain herself, but she still couldn’t smile at all. “The snowy scene today isn’t bad, so I went out to walk. Seeing that Elder Sister Xu Qi was sleeping peacefully, I didn’t want to disturb her. I think Grand Princess Yi De should wake up from a nap, so I’m going to visit now. I’m sorry if I’m impolite. After she finished speaking, she went around Yue Wang and headed to the door.

The words Yue Wang wanted to say had not been spoken and suddenly got stuck in his throat.

Xu Qi’s eyes were filled with joy as she looked at Yue Wang, “Your Royal Highness Yue Wang, the weather outside is cold, why not come to the room and drink some hot tea?”

“No need.” After Yue Wang finished speaking, he did not even turn back to look at Xu Qi as he directly chased after Mu Yunyao.

Xu Qi’s rosy face slowly turned pale. She turned around and went back into her room to put on her clothes. She chased after Yue Wang and Mu Yunyao as they headed towards Grand Princess Yi De’s courtyard.

Yue Wang had caught up to Mu Yunyao. Seeing her pale face, he was extremely anxious in his heart. “Yunyao, I thought you were in the room, so I went to the room directly.”

“I am not in the room, which disappoints You Royal Highness. But with Elder Sister Xu Qi there, it is the same. Coincidentally, you have not met for four years, so you can recall how you taught her to ride a horse back then?” Mu Yunyao knew that saying these words was very inappropriate, but she couldn’t control the anger in her heart.

“Yunyao, are you jealous?”

Mu Yunyao froze all of a sudden. Seeing Yue Wang’s eyes and face lit up with joy, she couldn’t help but purse her lips. “ Dose Your Royal Highness Yue Wang should preside over the Chinese New Year’s festival porridge in the city? What are you doing here?”

“It’s snowing. I thought you might want to see a snowman tomorrow morning, so I rushed over to prepare.” Yue Wang’s eyes were filled with gentleness.

Mu Yunyao was slightly stunned. His fingers that were holding onto the umbrella’s handle tightened uncontrollably, “Does Your Royal Highness Yue Wang speak like this to others as well?”

The smile in Yue Wang’s eyes grew wider and wider. It seemed that he could see a fiery red flower blossomed in this world of ice and snow. “I like the way you’re jealous.”

Mu Yunyao became angrier and angrier. She had clearly said it twice, but this person didn’t have any plans to explain, which was express tacit acknowledgment. Thinking of this, she felt that her internal organs were uncomfortable, so she turned around and walked straight forward.

On a snowy day, the road was slippery. Just now, she turned around again, so her embroidered shoes were a bit wet this time, making it harder and harder to walk. She did not stand at her feet, so she accidentally slipped forward, and the oil-paper umbrella in her hand fell to the ground.

Mu Yunyao simply ignored the oil-paper umbrella, picked up her skirt, and walked towards Grand Princess Yi De’s courtyard.

Yue Wang strode forward and picked up the oil-paper umbrella, catching up to Mu Yunyao and holding the umbrella above her head. “Because Xu Fei is adopted by Imperial Aunt as her son, Xu Qi and I have indeed met each other several times. It only stops at knowing that there is such a person, and there is no other intersection.”

Mu Yunyao turned her head and glanced at Yue Wang, not believing his words at all, “Your Royal Highness Yue Wang’s words are not kind at all. Didn’t you accept someone else’s purse as well?”

“Purse?” Yue Wang frowned and nodded his head: “She wanted to give me the purse, but in the end I didn’t accept it. It seems that I put it on the table casually.” Some time had passed, and he couldn’t remember it now.

Mu Yunyao raised her eyebrows, the anger in her heart grew even became more intense. “Your Royal Highness Yue Wang still remembers what happened four years ago. Could it be that your heart is regretting that you didn’t accept the purse?”

Yue Wang smiled as he looked at Mu Yunyao’s sharp appearance and felt that her own character was getting worse. At present, Yunyao was clearly furious and seemed to be quite angry. But in his heart, he was pretty happy and wished for her to be a little angrier. Because the more she got mad, the more she cared about himself.

“If I miss a grass you sent me, I’ll regret it and can’t eat for a few days. But if I miss a mountain of gold and silver sent by others, I won’t have a shred of regret in my heart.”

Mu Yunyao’s breathing slightly stagnated as she looked at Yue Wang’s serious expression, and she bit her lips. “It’s all nonsense. You’re so poor right now. If someone gave you the gold and silver mountain, you definitely wouldn’t let them go.”

“My character is not good, and I’m not favored by Imperial Father, so no one will take me seriously. But you’re the only one who thinks of me as a treasure, wanting to give me a mountain of gold and silver.”

Mu Yunyao blinked her eyes and carefully thought over the words that came out of Yue Wang’s mouth. Her face instantly turned red: “Who thinks of you as a treasure?”

Yue Wang focused his eyes on Mu Yunyao and said in a remarkably light tone, “You!”

Mu Yunyao stomped her feet. When she saw Xu Qi walk over behind her, she no longer argued with Yue Wang and turned around to walk into Grand Princess Yi De’s courtyard.

When she saw Mu Yunyao walk over while carrying her skirt, Qu Mama repeatedly cried out in alarm, even Yue Wang at her side had neglected. “My little ancestor, why are you here like this? When the Grand Princess saw this, she started scolding you again. Hurry up and help the young lady get a change of clothes, shoes and socks.”

Yue Wang looked towards Mu Yunyao’s embroidered shoes. When he saw the tip of her slightly drenched shoes, he couldn’t help but frown. The distance from the neighbor courtyard to this place was only a few steps, so it shouldn’t be enough to get her shoes wet. Could it be that Yunyao had been staying standing outside this entire time? Thinking about Xu Qi, who appeared in Mu Yunyao’s room, the coldness in Yue Wang’s eyes intensified.

When the maidservant hurried to help Muy Yunyao pick up her things, Qu Mama finally bowed to Yue Wang, “This servant is lacking in manners, Your Royal Highness. Please forgive me.”

“Qu Mama doesn’t need to be so courteous. It’s better you take good care of Yunyao first.”

Xu Qi followed them into the room and stepped forward to help Qu Mama wipe the snow off Mu Yunyao’s hair. “Why did Little Sister Yunyao leave in such a hurry? I couldn’t even catch up with you. You’ve just been frightened, haven’t you?”

Yue Wang’s eyebrows tightened, and his eyes looked at Xu Qi with a sharp look. He had thought that Yunyao was alone in the room, so he went straight in. When he realized that the person lying on the bed was not Mu Yunyao, he quickly turned around and walked out. He did not have any contact with Xu Qi. But the words and expressions that this person said made Yunyao misunderstand him again and again.

Mu Yunyao felt a bit uncomfortable when Xu Qi was helping her wipe her hair. She had always been cautious and not used to being so close to strangers, but she couldn’t just avoid them in front of Qu Mama and Yue Wang, so she had to be forced to endure it.

“Miss Xu has arrived as well. It’s about time for the Grand Princess to get up. I’ll just have to trouble Miss Xu to go in and help the Grand Princess comb her hair. This servant will take care of Miss Mu.” Qu Mama said with a smile.

Xu Qi put down the towel in her hand and nodded, “Okay, I’ll go in now.”

~ A SENTIMENTAL WORD IS SAD ~ 

The snowflakes got heavier and heavier, piece by piece, like catkins falling on the ground. The rustling sound of the snowflakes could be heard.

Mu Yunyao slightly moved the oil-paper umbrella away and stretched out her hand to catch the snowflakes. Pieces of white snow landed on her palm and turned into water droplets at first. Her fingers were numb from the cold, but the thoughts in her heart were in a mess.

Jin Lan and Jin Qiao walked out quickly. Seeing Mu Yunyao’s absent-minded appearance, they hurriedly went up to her and covered her with a cloak. “Miss, what are you doing? The snow is too heavy. Let’s hurry back.”

Mu Yunyao allowed Jin Lan to wipe her fingers clean before stuffing a heater in her arms, “It’s been a long time since I’ve admired the snow in the north. I want to look around. The two of you rest in the room. No need to follow me.”

Jin Qiao was so worried. “Miss, if you were to catch a cold from such a heavy snowfall, you would feel as uncomfortable as you did during the New Year.”

“It’s fine. You don’t need to worry.” After Mu Yunyao finished speaking, she took a big step forward.

Jin Qiao looked at Jin Lan helplessly. “Are we really not going to follow?”

“Let Young Miss be quiet by herself. Too many things have happened recently, so it’s better to be in front of Young Miss. In private, Young Miss always looks worried. If she walks away like this, she may be able to figure it out.

“However, Young Miss is alone, and it’s hard for people to rest at ease.”

“It’s alright. Liu Liang will definitely follow them from the shadows.”

“Alright then.”

Mu Yunyao held onto her oil-paper umbrella as she wandered aimlessly. In Baohua Temple at this time, the monks had all returned to their rooms. There was not a single person in sight, leaving behind only the ancient trees and the faint fragrance of pine in the air.

The snow had accumulated a layer on the ground, creaking under her feet.

As Mu Yunyao walked, she couldn’t help but wander to Lingxi River.

The last time she came here, Lingxi River had been filled with river lanterns. The river surface had already been frozen, and the clear stream filled with starlight could no longer be seen this time.

A wind blew, and snowflakes scattered in all directions. Mu Yunyao was caught off guard for a moment, and the oil-paper umbrella in her hand was blown to the ground.

Mu Yunyao looked at the oil-paper umbrella that had fallen to the ground, and for some reason, she felt like she was greatly wronged.

His footsteps lightly landed, then Liu Liang walked out from who knows where. He picked up the oil-paper umbrella and respectfully passed it to Mu Yunyao. “Mistress, it’s snowy and cold today. Please hold up the paper umbrella quickly.”

Liu Liang’s clothes were thin, and it was unknown how long he had been in the snow. His entire body was covered in a thick chill, and his hair and shoulders were covered with snowflakes. Only his eyes were still warm and focused.

Looking at such a figure, Mu Yunyao’s heart fiercely trembled. “On your body....”

Liu Liang carelessly brushed away the snowflakes with his hand. “I have martial arts as my foundation, so I don’t think the weather right now is too hard to bear.” Seeing that Mu Yunyao didn’t take the oil-paper umbrella, he carefully wiped the snowflakes off the umbrella. Then, he reached out and placed the paper umbrella over Mu Yunyao’s head.

“Liu Liang, you have been by my side for quite some time already. I have never asked about your true identity, and I have never wanted to know your name. Do you blame me?” She did not know his identity or his name, but she could simply treat him as a subordinate, enjoy his loyalty, and would make use of his ability with peace of mind. In the end, she could not be cruelest and heartless after all. She did not have the peace of mind to enjoy herself.

“This subordinate’s name was given to me by Mistress. It was Liu Liang.” He understood Mistress’s meaning. But if he were to reveal his name and identity today, it would be difficult for him to stay by her side.

“You …” Mu Yunyao slightly creased her brows. Looking at the calm expression on Liu Liang’s face, she couldn’t help but laugh, “I have forgotten your temperament. Liu Liang, you could be grateful toward the people. It’s a good thing to repay the kindness, but don’t be too foolish and think about yourself in everything. At the beginning, I spent six taels of silver to buy you from a man out of curiosity. If not me, then you will belong to someone else. You would only harm yourself in the end if you dug out hearts and lungs for others like this.”

The scene of when he first met Mu Yunyao flashed through Liu Liang’s mind. At that time, she was dressed in men’s clothing. Her lips were red, her teeth were white, and her gaze was clear. She was like a young master who knew nothing about the sufferings of the world. She spent six taels of silver buying him, but there wasn’t the slightest bit of contempt and disdain in her eyes. Later, she spent a lot of silver buying him a long sword, giving him food and clothing, and trusting him, which is why he follows her wholeheartedly: because she was worth it!

Seeing that Liu Liang was silent, Mu Yunyao slightly sighed: “Everyone says that the human heart is the most fickle thing in this world. I’ve already said before, when did you think it through and don’t want to stay by my side, you can directly speak. At that time, I hope you’re willing to tell me your name and identity.”

“…Alright.”

Seeing that Liu Liang held the umbrella over her head, ignored the snowflakes on his body, so Mu Yunyao walked to the pavilion not far away. Looking at the vast expanse of whiteness around her, she couldn’t help but let out a long breath. “How”s Qi Ming now?”

“Qi Ming already gained Ling Wang’s trust, causing the Ling Wang to think that he was one of Jin Wang’s men. After being hunted down by Jin Wang, his heart became completely cold, and he decided to work under Ling Wang. Soon, Yi Bao Xuan will arrive in the Capital.”

“Doing things with Qi Ming has always been reassuring. Didn’t he take the opportunity to make a profit of giving porridge in the Capital this time?”

“That’s not true. The grains bought earlier were sold to Steward Qin for a low price to make ginger tea and sent to Western Guangdong. Recently, he has been selling raw silk and fabric. He earned a small number of silver taels and invested it in Yi Bao Xuan.”

Mu Yunyao smiled, “This kind of talent is really exceptional. Get others to pay more attention to him and don’t let any danger appear. Once the Ling Wang’s suspicions are aroused, he should withdraw early. Don’t let himself in danger.”

“Yes, please rest assured, Mistress. This subordinate will tell him.”

Mu Yunyao looked at the snowflakes on his body. Some of them had already melted and were soaking his clothes, “Grand Princess Yi De has brought many people to protect the surroundings so there won’t be any problems. The injury on your body is not a good one, so you need to have a good rest. You don’t need to protect me in secret all the time. Nothing will happen.”

Liu Liang hesitated for a moment and then said with worry, “Mistress’ safety is more important.”

“Don’t worry. It’s not like I’m completely unprepared. Go back early and change your clothes so as not to be infected with the cold.” Mu Yunyao took the oil-paper umbrella from Liu Liang’s hands and walked towards the side room.

As Liu Liang gazed at her figure, his eyes were especially focused. In the midst of the snow, she held the oil-paper umbrella painted with the remnants of the ink and water lotus. She walked forward while stepping on the snow that filled the sky. The wind blew, blowing up the fragrant cloak, revealing a little purple skirt, clearly reflected in his pupils and imprinted on the bottom of his heart.

The sky was filled with black and white, and the only thing he could be seen were the different colors on her body. It was just like his world, which is already barren. Just when he was about to lose all hope, she charged in recklessly, bringing him to a new world. He didn’t want to think of his old name, nor did he want to speak of his previous identity. He was called Liu Liang. And in front of her, he would always be called Liu Liang!

~ YUE WANG ALSO HAS AN ADMIRER? ~ 

Just as Mu Yunyao was about to rest, she suddenly heard a knock on the door. Jin Lan and Jin Qiao stepped forward to open the door and saw Xu Qi, who held a paper umbrella, “Little Sister Yunyao, the Grand Princess’s side room can’t be occupied, so she told me to come over and squeeze with Little Sister Yunyao. I don’t know if I can interrupt?”

“Elder Sister Qi, come in quickly. The courtyard is quite large. I live alone, and it is empty. If you come, you can accompany me.”

“Then I’ll be troubling you. It’s snowing heavily outside. I wonder how the situation with the Laba porridge in the Capital is?”

“His Royal Highness Yue Wang is handling this matter, so it shouldn’t be a big problem.”

At this moment, the Capital was filled with flying snowflakes. The smiles of the commoners did not decrease in the slightest because of the heavy snow. There was steam coming from the porridge stalls that were built on the streets. The commoners were lined up with bowls in their hands to receive the porridge.

“With a mouthful, it full of fragrance. This year’s porridge seems to be especially delicious.”

“Quite a number of people have donated their rice grains. This can be considered as a proper meal.”

Yue Wang stood in a porridge stall, watching the falling snow. His mind had gone to Baohua Temple. He didn’t know if Yunyao had seen Master Yuanguang, or she had listened to his advice … Did she miss him?

Yu Heng walked over with quick steps. “Wang Ye, this subordinate has gone down to inquire about the details. Grand Princess Yi De will be staying at Baohua Temple for a few days. Miss Xu from Yanzhou has returned. She has also gone up the mountain.”

“Yanzhou … … Xu Fei is back?”

“Yes, that Miss Xu is the legitimate daughter of Lord Xu. You’ve met her twice before, and Miss Xu even gave you a purse before.” Yu Heng thought back to four years ago when he accompanied Yue Wang to the Palace. At that time, Miss Xu was practicing embroidery. She was initially not interested in it, but after seeing Wang Ye, she stayed up all night making a pretty beautiful purse and sent it over. However, he didn’t notice where Wang Ye had left it.

“This place is more or less set up. I’m worried that Imperial Aunt will be staying at Baohua Temple by herself when it snows. Go inform Second Imperial Brother and let him watch over this for me. I’ll go up the mountain now.”

“Wang Ye, please wait for me. I’ll have someone go inform His Royal Highness Yu Wang and follow you up the mountain.”

“There’s no need. I think it’s more appropriate for you to find Steward Qin in Jingling City.”

Yu Heng said with a bitter face, “Wang Ye, your subordinate will not speak much anymore in the future.” At present, Steward Qin has become busier and busier. Yu Yi was ordered to send the letter, so Yu Yi’s feet don’t touch the ground all day. A few days ago, he even wrote to complain that he had spent twenty days back and forth between Jingling City and Western Guangdong. His whole body was almost dried up by the wind. Just the thought of it was terrifying.

In Baohua temple, Mu Yunyao was initially a bit sleepy, but when she saw Xu Qi happily chatting with her, she could only sit by the side and accompany her.

“I heard that Little Sister Yunyao went to the hunting grounds. I wonder what fun places are there?”

“I’m not good at horse-riding or hunting. I just want to join in the fun.” Mu Yunyao smiled as she shook her head.

A look of nostalgia appeared on Xu Qi’s face: “I did learn how to ride and shoot for a few days, but that was four years ago. At that time, I was only twelve years old, and my height was not even as high as a horse. His Royal Highness Yue Wangtaught me, but it’s a pity that I’m not good at learning. Thus, I haven’t made much progress after learning for several days.”

Mu Yunyao originally wanted to take a sip of her tea to refresh her spirit, but when she heard these words, her fingers trembled slightly as a wave of energy flashed through her teacup.

Xu Qi continued, “Has Little Sister Yunyao ever seen His Royal Highness Yue Wang in the hunting grounds?”

“Of course, I’ve seen it before.” Mu Yunyao put down her teacup. The wave of energy in the teacup had already disappeared, but the ripples in her heart couldn’t calm down.

Xu Qi smiled as she looked Mu Yunyao up. A moment later, she retracted her expression, “Actually, there’s a reason why I came back this time. Firstly, I am worried about Grand Princess Yi De and hope to come to her side to take care of her. Secondly, I heard that His Royal Highness Yue Wang has returned to the Capital, soI wanted to see him.”

Mu Yunyao raised her eyes. The drowsiness had totally vanished, but she didn’t hastily open her mouth to say anything.

Xu Qi seemed to have fallen back into her memories and spoke of her thoughts in a low voice, “The first time I saw Your Highness Yue Wang was six years ago. At that time, he was already an elegant young master with an upright posture and an unparalleled heroic breath, but his face was clear and cold. There was a lonely breath lingering all over, which made people feel pain. The next time we met was four years ago. He saw me clumsily unable to get on the horse, but his usually cold lips actually had a smile on them. I don’t know if Little Sister Yunyao felt this way. The colder you are, the warmer you smile...”

Mu Yunyao’s heart trembled, but the smile on her face didn’t change in the slightest, “I don’t understand these things.”

Little Sister Yunyao, you had been recognized by the Grand Princess as her granddaughter. In the future, you would have to address Yue Wang as an uncle. After a long time of contact, you would come to understand that even though Yue Wamg looked cold on the surface, he was actually the most warmhearted person. When I was young, I didn’t know how to act, and I didn’t know how to restrain my mind. I also made a purse for him overnight and gave it to him. But presumably, I think it must have been a joke to him.”

Xu Qi seemed to have fallen back into her memories and spoke of her thoughts in a low voice, “The first time I saw Your Highness Yue Wang was six years ago. At that time, he was already an elegant young master with an upright posture and an unparalleled heroic breath, but his face was clear and cold. There was a lonely breath lingering all over, which made people feel pain. The next time we met was four years ago.

When I was young, I didn’t know how to act, and I didn’t know how to restrain my mind. I also made a purse for him overnight and gave it to him. But presumably, I think it must have been a joke to him.”

Hearing Xu Qi’s words, Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but sink into deep thought. She had received quite a few gifts from the Yue Wang: The present, the ice lantern, the pearl hairpin, the fabrics, the ornaments, the snow fox, the cat hairpin...

She had also given things to Yue Wang before, such as Thirty percent of Bu Xian Luo and Ni Yun Fang’s profits, and then swallowed the private salt of Qingling City to help him earn silver taels. However, when she had given out these things, all of them had been in exchange for her own benefits, and there is more or less the meaning of using Yue Wang.

“Little Sister Yunyao, would you mind if I told you this?”

Mu Yunyao shook her head. “How could that be?”

Xu Qi intimately held onto Mu Yunyao’s hand, as if she was very delighted, “I lived in Yanzhou since I was a child. When I grew up a little bit, I followed the Grand Princess Yi De and listened to her teachings, so I’m not very familiar with the other young misses in the Capital. Fortunately, I met you and saw the first sight of you made me feel very compatible. In the future, the two of us must get along well.”

“Yes.”

“Look at me. I forgot the time as soon as I’ve started talking. Little Sister Yunyao came back just now to have a rest. How about the two of us have a rest together?”

“Alright.” The bed in the meditation room was extremely spacious. Even if Mu Yunyao and Xu Qi were sleeping, it wouldn’t be too crowded. Before long, Xu Qi’s breathing calmed down while Mu Yunyao was lying on her side on the bed, unable to fall asleep.

She thought that Yue Wang was only gentle to herself. However, she heard his kind side from another girl. This kind of understanding made her heart tremble, and even though she was surrounded by the boiling hot soup and covered in a thick blanket, she still could not stop the chill coming from behind her.

She could talk and laugh with Jin Wang’s concubines n her previous life, pushing him onto someone else’s bed to express her understanding. But now, even if she just heard how gentle Yue Wang was towards other girls, she actually felt as if she was being bitten by a bug.

The room was so quiet. Mu Yunyao lay down for a long time and still couldn’t sleep. She couldn’t help but get up, get dressed, grab an oil-paper umbrella, and walk out of her room.

Intense Love Chapter 126

~ EXTRA (2) ~ 

The high-heeled enthusiast fulfilled her wish and finally left the shop happily.

“Ice cream.” Su Jinbei’s eyes were sharp, and she shouted when she saw the dessert before her. After exclaiming, she looked at Zhou Shiyun, “I just shouted. I don’t eat.”

Zhou Shiyun said nothing but just took her hand and walked to the store. A few girls waited in line at the store’s entrance, and Zhou Shiyun stood behind them.

Su Jinbei looked surprised, “What’s the matter? You want to buy it for me to eat, but my conscience discovers it.”

Su Jinbei knows that she shouldn’t eat ice too much during pregnancy. But she didn’t know what was happening, and she had been particularly greedy about these things since she was pregnant. She is gluttony but resists not eating them for the baby’s sake.

Zhou Shiyun smiled at her, “Don’t be narcissistic. I’m buying it for myself to eat.”

Su Jinbei, “....”

Zhou Shiyun’s turn in waiting, “An ice cream, vanilla flavor.”

“Huh?” The clerk was taken aback, “Okay, okay.”

The clerk’s eyes turned on Su Jinbei and Zhou Shiyun. The girls who bought ice cream just now realized that someone famous was around them, and they all took pictures with their phones excitedly!

Zhou Shiyun took the ice cream and said thank you after paying the money.

He walked towards Su Jinbei, who frowned frivolously, “Didn’t you say you are not used to eating ice cream? Just say it if you want to buy it for me.”

Zhou Shiyun opened his mouth and took a bite.

“…”

“Let’s go.”

“Hey, you really bought it for yourself.”

Zhou Shiyun chuckled softly and handed the ice cream to her, “I don’t know what’s so delicious about this thing, but your eyes are shining.”

Su Jinbei took a sip. The cold sweetness melted in her mouth, and her mood improved, “It’s the one in my stomach that wants to eat, not me.”

Zhou Shiyun glanced at Su Jinbei, who was eating happily and reminded her, “Take it easy. You can only take a few bites.”

“Yes, I know. I’ll give you the rest.”

…

The two are getting farther and farther away. The girls behind them screamed with excitement. If you want ice cream, I’ll take a bite first. It was dog abuse!!

“Tweer and post on Weibo!”

“I want to post to Moment. I’m lucky today!”

In the third month of Su Jinbei’s pregnancy, Zhou Shiyun returned from the hospital and has been by her side ever since. According to Shao Suying, the Second Brother wanted to hold Su Jinbei in his arms and take her wherever he went. He held her hands for fear of falling. He is afraid of slackening, so she is always spoiled without principle.

Shao Suying looked up to the sky and sighed. The Second Brother is like this, and the Elder Brother is still catching up. It was painful for her.… Alas, she can’t find a boyfriend when she has these two elder brothers. Look, everyone wants to compare with the one at home first. After the comparison, her heart will be really hurt!!!

!!

—————————

Later, Zhou Shiyun’s wish was fulfilled. Su Jinbei gave birth to two daughters.

The child was born in the late summer and early autumn. Therefore, Zhou Shiyun named the children Liangxia and Liangyi.

Taking care of a child is a complex task. The children are restless and cry every night. Fortunately, the Zhou family has special personnel to care for their children day and night. Zhou Shiyu and Su Jinbei can sleep well.

“Knock... Knock.”

At three o’clock in the middle of the night, the door of Zhou Shiyun and Su Jinbei’s room was knocked. Su Jinbei turned over and buried herself in the quilt. Zhou Shiyun opened his eyes, helped her pull the quilt, and got up.

“What’s the matter?” Zhou Shiyun opened the door and saw the person who cared for their children outside the door.

“Second Young Master, the Eldest Miss cried so much and couldn’t coax her well after a long time.”

“Alright.” Zhou Shiyun turned around and closed the door. He went to the place where Liang Xia was. Every once in a while, Liangxia cries in the middle of the night. Every time she does this, the nanny will go to Zhou Shiyun because Zhou Shiyun can always coax her well.

Zhou Shiyun took Liangxia from the servant. He hugged, patted her back, and coaxed her, “What’s wrong with Liangxia? Why won’t you sleep anymore?”

Sure enough. When Liangxia was in Zhou Shiyun’s hands, Liangxia’s crying gradually ceased. The nanny’s aunt smiled and said, “The Eldest Miss really listens to you.”

Zhou Shiyun curled his lips slightly, “Liangyi.”

“The Second Miss was awakened but lay down obediently and didn’t cry.”

Zhou Shiyun nodded and walked into the room. As expected, Liangyi stretched out her hand and pulled the sheet. It was fun to play alone. Their twin daughters are very different in temperament.

When Liangyi saw her father coming over, she waved her hands, and Zhou Shiyun freed up a hand to hold her, “Liangxia, learn from your sister. You can’t keep crying.”

Liangxia, “Heeeeee…”

Zhou Shiyun coaxed his daughters and put them to sleep in a small bed. He watched next to them for a while before he returned to his room.

“Baby Zhou?” Su Jinbei opened her eyes in a daze.

Zhou Shiyun lay in the quilt, “What’s the matter? Did I wake you up?”

“Um… Where have you been?.”

Zhou Shiyun stretched out his hand and lightly touched her back, “Liangxia cried, and I went to coax her to sleep.”

“This little girl bullied people again.” Su Jinbei murmured, rubbing against his shoulder.

Zhou Shiyun said kindly, “Mom said Liangxia is like you. When you were a child, you used to cry in the middle of the night.”

Su Jinbei, “Is it true?”

“Well... I will coax you too, like when you were a child.”

Su Jinbei chuckled lightly, “I wouldn’t give you such a hard time.”

Zhou Shiyun raised his lips slightly, “Who knows? Go to sleep.”

“En…”

Incurable Chapter 40 Part 2

Mu Qing and Yan Mei looked at the door at the same time. Beside the screen wall, Mu Wan was standing there with slender figures and cold expressions.

Seeing Mu Wan, Mu Qing moved her masseter muscle and looked back at Shen Cheng first. Because of Mu Wan’s words, Shen Cheng cast his eyes on her, who stood next to the screen wall.

Mu Qing stood up from her seat as Shen Cheng turned around. Mu Qing looked at him faintly and said, “Why not? Who are you? This is our Mu family’s business. What does it have to do with you?”

When Mu Qing spoke, Yan Mei took back her sight and looked at Mother Wu, who stood in the backyard. Mother Wu stood there carefully. When she saw Yan Mei looking over her, she was so frightened that she quickly turned and left.

It seems that Mother Wu informed her to come.

This Mother Wu is really getting more and more presumptuous. She knew that Mother Wu had taken care of Mu Wan for many years and also talked to Mu Wan about the Mu family’s matter. She has not dismissed her because she has worked in Mu family for a long time, and the price is reasonable.

Now it seems that she is really shameless. She even secretly tells Mu Wan to come over. It’s bold.

While Mu Qing was talking, Mu Wan had already walked over. The Mu family has not changed much from before, and there is a cold breath everywhere. Mu Wan stood still in the main hall, looked at Mu Qing, and said, “Didn’t you just say that you were going to move my mother’s tomb out of the Mu family’s cemetery? Since she moved out, she is not a member of the Mu family anymore, so why can’t I take care of it.”

In fact, Mu Wan has no position to stand here today. Other than refuting Mu Qing, what she said had no binding force on the Mu family. Yan Mei hadn’t seen Mu Wan for many years. After the college entrance examination was over, Yan Mei remembered that Mu Wan had moved out from the Mu family’s house and said she had nothing to do with the Mu family. Over the years, she has faded away from the fierceness of her teenage years, but she has become more and more like her mother, becoming more and more indifferent.

“Whether it’s moving out or staying in the Mu family’s house, it really has nothing to do with you.” Yan Mei maintained the demeanor of a lady, staring at Mu Wan coldly, and said, “We don’t welcome you. Please go out immediately.”

Mu Wan had seen their shamelessness before, and her emotions did not fluctuate much. Looking at Yan Mei, Mu Wan asked, “Does Mu Yatang agree?”

The mother and daughter are now pondering over these little things. Her mother is Mu Yatang’s biological sister anyway, and she can’t do such a thing no matter what.

“Mu Yatang?” Mu Qing sneered, “You are getting more and more polite.”

She walked to Mu Wan and looked at her. She could see that Mu Wan was just pretending to be calm, and she must be very flustered. Mu Wan is alone in this world and is not afraid of what she does. But if she did anything to her dead mother, Mu Wan would definitely die in pain.

Mu Qing felt some pleasure in her heart, sweeping away the haze when she left the crew today. Mu Qing looked at her with a smile and said, “Whether my dad agrees or disagrees, it entirely depends on me. What’s the matter? You don’t want to move it so much? Don’t you hate the Mu family the most? Why do you insist on putting your mother’s tomb here?”

“Mu Qing.” Yan Mei reminded her. Shen Cheng is still here, so they can’t spread the matter out.

“Shen Cheng knew it a long time ago.” Mu Qing smiled lightly and said to her mother. After she said, she folded her arms and said, “You come here today because do you want to threaten us with your mother’s unmarried pregnancy like you did in high school? Then go! Follow us! Let the fish die, and the net is broken!”

“When you send the news, I will let Shen Cheng remove it. Let’s see if you send it faster or Shen Cheng remove it faster.”

“Besides, it doesn’t matter if we don’t remove it. You use your own mother’s scandal to threatens us, so you are not a good thing. Let everyone see what kind of person you are, everyone will laugh at you, and it has no effect on me.”

“Yes, I forgot to tell you. Shen Cheng and I are getting engaged in a few days. I’m going to join the Shen family. How about you? Would your fat-headed gold master divorce his wife and marry you? Or maybe he’s already had another girl. Someone’s going to give you a big hand? You are too proud of yourself at this moment, wait for you to be dumped by him, and see how I can kill you. You must know that in the entertainment industry, the Shen family is the most powerful.”

It was like she said all the words buried in the bottom of her heart. When she said it all, Mu Qing had a stern look in her eyes, and she finished with a sneer as if she had waved away all the shadows that had been pressing on her body for a long time. She looked at the poor Mu Wan in front of her, her smile gradually warming from the cold side. She turned around and hugged Shen Cheng’s arm and asked, “Shen Cheng, don’t you think so?”

Mu Qing was already much happier than before. Shen Cheng smiled and said, “Of course, Shen’s Entertainment is certainly the best in the entertainment industry.”

“Mu Wan.” A man’s voice came from the door.

Mu Man glanced at Mu Qing and Shen Cheng, then turned around and looked at the door. By the side of the screen wall, Liu Qianxiu stood there, tall and thin, with a cold and indifferent temperament.

Here comes her man.

After Mu Wan saw him, his light brows moved, and he walked over. Mu Wan watched him come to her, looked up at him, and suddenly smiled with red eyes.

“How do you know where the the Mu family’s house is?”

“Mr. Liu...” Before Liu Qianxiu did not answer her, Shen Cheng, who stood beside Mu Qing, had already called him out. His tone was shocked and suppressed.

Liu Qianxiu’s gaze stayed on Mu Wan, and he quietly replied, “I know everything about you.”

Mu Wan blinked in a trance. Everything seemed to have an answer.

Liu Qianxiu took her hand and closed her fingers. Liu Qianxiu looked at Shen Cheng indifferently and asked, “What did you just say?”

Shen Cheng didn’t seem to react yet, but Mu Qing beside him kept asking, “Who is he?” But he couldn’t answer. He opened his eyes wide and looked at the hands he and Mu Wan held together, not daring to look directly into his eyes.

“No...nothing.” Shen Cheng whispered.

The author has something to say:
Liu Daochang: You dare to do something that makes Mu Wan unhappy, show me!

Intense Love Chapter 125

~ EXTRA (1) ~ 

Yu Wei, a well-known paparazzi, revealed on Wednesday that Su Jinbei, who had been married for many years, was pregnant and had been pregnant for more than three months.

As soon as the news came out, Su Jinbei became popular on Weibo, and many netizens rushed to Su Jinbei’s Weibo to give their blessings.

Of course, some people expressed surprise.

“Really? Jinbei recorded a variety show yesterday. Judging from the fans’ photos, I can’t see that she is pregnant.”

“Wearing a big sweatshirt, no wonder....”

“You’re too thin. Baby Zhou needs to give Jinbei a supplement.”

“When you’re pregnant, you’re still out to work! Hurry to have a rest.”

“Boy or girl? So curious. ~~”

“A person who is pregnant is slimmer than me who is not pregnant. I express doubts about life....”

…

As the protagonist, the Internet exploded, but Su Jinbei leisurely strolled around the baby store with Zhou Shiyun.

“We didn’t even know if it was a boy or a girl, so we bought this one. It won’t be wasted.

“It’s okay.” Zhou Shiyun said, “Buy them all. They will always be used.”

Su Jinbei nodded, “Yes, it’s estimated that my eldest brother is coming soon, too, so I should prepare gifts for the sleeping baby in advance.”

Zhou Shiyun curled his lips and smiled, “We will use it ourselves.”

Su Jinbei glared at him, “I haven’t given birth to this baby, yet you just think about the second one.”

Zhou Shiyun, “If you have two, you can let them play together without disturbing us.”

Su Jinbei glanced at him, “…Is there anyone who becomes a father like this?”

Zhou Shiyun calmly raised his hand, touched the girl’s clothes on the shelf, and then turned away from the subject, “This looks good. Buy it.”

Su Jinbei turned her head to look and was attracted by the pink and tender clothes, “Okay.”

“This one.”

“It’s too pink!”

Zhou Shiyun said, “It’s suitable for a girl.”

“Oh.”

“This material is very soft.” Zhou Shiyun took another one and threw it into the shopping cart.

“This one is also good.”

Su Jinbei followed Zhou Shiyun behind him, silently watching him take small clothes and toys one after another. Finally, she couldn’t help but say, “Baby Zhou, aren’t your heart biased too much.”

Zhou Shiyun turned his head, “En?”

Su Jinbei pointed to the shopping cart, “It’s all for girls, and it’s all pink. Where did you put your son.”

Zhou Shiyun pondered for a moment, “What about the boys?”

Su Jinbei glanced at him lightly, “Do you like girls?”

Zhou Shiyun was silent momentarily, then nodded, “Girls are just like you, very good.” His heart melted when he thought of a cute little girl rubbing against him and calling him father.

Su Jinbei touched her stomach, “Tsk. Baby, Mom is honestly worried that you are a boy. Look at your father! It’s so obvious in his heart.”

Zhou Shiyun, “....”

The two spent a long time shopping in the baby store and buying a lot. After paying the bill, the Zhou family servant who followed behind them helped put the things back into the car first.

“Are you tired?” Zhou Shiyun looked at her.

Su Jinbei shook her head, “It’s hard to come out and go shopping. It’s not so easy to get tired.”

After she said that, the two happened to pass by a high-heeled shoe store. Su Jinbei often visits this shop, bringing two or three pairs of shoes back whenever she comes.

“Go and have a look.”

Zhou Shiyun said, “No.”

“I’ll just look at them, and I’m not wearing them.” Su Jinbei has been wearing flat shoes since she was pregnant. Her eyes were red when she saw the high heels that hadn’t been worn for a long time, which were the latest model.

“Since you can’t wear it, what are you looking at.”

“I’ll just take a look.” Su Jinbei blinked, staring at Zhou Shiyun pitifully. Zhou Shiyun couldn’t be stared at, “Su Jingbei, you don’t want to wear high heels these days.”

“Okay, okay, I know.” Su Jinbei happily responded while pulling Zhou Shiyun in.

“This one looks good!”

Waiter, “Miss Su, this is a limited edition. Our shop has only three pairs, and the other two have been bought.”

“What is the size?”

“37.”

“What a coincidence! It’s my size.” After Su Jinbei finished speaking, looking back at Zhou Shiyun, love was definitely in her eyes.

Zhou Shiyun, “....”

“Baby Zhou, there is only one pair left.”

“You just promised me something.”

Su Jinbei raised three fingers, “I’ll buy it, but I promise I won’t wear it!”

Waiter, “???” What kind of routine?

Zhou Shiyun shook his head, knowing this person could not bear the temptation.

“Who secretly wore high heels out to catch the schedule when I was away, and what else did you say… the brand gave it to you, and you must help advertise for them?”

“That’s true....” Su Jinbei walked over, holding his hand and acting like a baby. “But this time, I swear I won’t wear them. I definitely wear flat shoes before giving birth to my baby. I’m just like this pair too much.”

Zhou Shiyun curled his lips and was amused by her.

A room was specially reserved for her to wear high heels at home. When she bought them, each pair was her favorite.

“Wrap it up.” Zhou Shiyun said to the waiter.

Su Jinbei smiled at him, “I know you love me.”

Zhou Shiyun shook helplessly, “It’s fine if you are obedient.”

Su Jinbei completely broke her heart to show, “Absolutely obedient!”

Incurable Chapter 40 Part 1

Mu Wan hadn’t returned to Mu family’s house for six or seven years. The Mu family’s house was not a good place, so she didn’t remember it so clearly. She was counting the time.

She has been living with her mother in the Mu family since she remembered. The Mu family’s house is a southern courtyard-style building with the main hall, a side hall, and a garden behind it. She and her mother live in the side hall behind the backyard.

The Mu family is engaged in the cloth business, and it is because of the tailoring skills of the Mu family that they can start the cloth business. Grandfather was skilled in craftsmanship. Almost every one of Xiacheng celebrities in the Republic of China had a cheongsam made by Master Mu of Mu family in Chengxi.

Grandfather had a son and a daughter. Mu Qing’s father learned the skill from his grandfather since childhood. But he was not interested in it, nor was he have intelligence in learning. On the contrary, Mu Wan’s mother was very talented and learned the eight-point craftsmanship of her grandfather.

When her mother was alive, she didn’t talk to Mu Wan about her father, and the Mu family also kept silent about her father, saying that he was dead. Mu Wan and her mother live in the Mu family’s house, but they don’t eat and drink for nothing. After his grandfather passed away, the Mu family’s craftsmanship sign became her mother, and Mu Wan watched her mother make cheongsam since she was a child.

Because of her mother’s craftsmanship, the Mu family did not dare to do anything to Mu Wan and her mother. When her mother was alive, except when she was not there, Mu Wan was ridiculed. At other times, she was well protected by her mother.

Her grandmother prefers sons over daughters. After her grandfather’s death, all the assets in the Mu family were given to Mu Qing’s father, Mu Yatang. Mu Yatang married Yan Mei, the Yan family’s daughter, and gave birth to Mu Qing.

The three members of the family are not good people. Mu Yatang just wants to use her mother’s craftsmanship and reputation to maintain the Mu family’s business. On the other hand, Yan Mei felt that her mother was pregnant before marriage and raised Mu Wan made the Mu family lose their face. Especially after Mu Qing was born, as the two children grew up, it was evident that Mu Wan was better-looking and smarter than Mu Qing. Thus, she felt jealous again and was picky about Mu Wan.

Yan Mei raised Mu Qing in various ways since she was a child, but her talent was limited. So, she can hardly lift her head in front of Mu Wan, becoming inferior and vain. In Mu Qing’s heart, Mu Wan was like her lifelong shadow and enemy.

Mu Wan and her mother were able to live quietly in the Mu family home in this kind of environment, not only her mother’s craftsmanship but also her mother’s personality. She just wants to live quietly with Mu Wan, not to fight or grab, not compete or rob, not seek wealth and prestige, but to live comfortably and conveniently.

To some extent, the way Mu Wan lives today is also greatly influenced by her mother.

At that time, Mu Wan was young and listened to her mother’s words obediently. She always stayed with her mother when she was at home and rarely went to the front yard. At school, Mu Wan was a stranger to Mu Qing and pretended not to know her. She crouched beside her mother like a little fox. Even if her mother is not strong enough, she can also shelter her from wind and rain. Mu Wan’s life is peaceful and happy at that time.

But this kind of life didn’t last long. After graduating from elementary school, her mother fell seriously ill, could not be cured for a long time, and finally died. Before she died, she told Mu Wan that if Mu Yatang and the others drove her out of the Mu family’s house, they would threaten them with her status.

The Mu family is in decline. Another scandal will affect Mu Qing’s reputation, and she couldn’t marry a good family.

When her mother passed away, Mu Wan was only twelve years old. Both her parents had died, and she had no relatives. Her mother just wanted her to have a place to stay, receive education, and grow up normally. Even if she got ridiculed in the Mu family’s house, it is better than having no fixed place outside.

As soon as her mother died, Mu Wan’s blessing also disappeared. In addition to cynicism at the Mu family’s house, she has also been severely beaten by Yan Mei and Mu Yatang and violently treated by Mu Qing.

Middle school children can imagine more wicked ways than adults, and Mu Wan’s life is completely dark. At that time, Mu Wan was too young and had just lost the protection of her mother, so her mind was still immature. The life of walking on thin ice also made her gradually stronger. In high school, if the Mu family’s attitude were not good, she would threaten the Mu family with the things his mother revealed to him before her death. However, at that time, Mu Wan’s word was actually just a threat. She was just an adolescent girl with strong-minded, and she didn’t want to destroy her mother’s reputation because of herself.

As Mu Wan grew up, she was no longer as polite to Mu Qing as she used to be. She was like a lion with exploded hair, beginning to be aggressive, and the Mu family gradually restrained her.

After graduating from high school, Mu Wan was admitted to the Film Academy in order to make money quickly and completely cut off contact with the Mu family. Occasionally, Mother Wu would visit her at school and tell her about Mu Qing’s situation. Mu Qing failed in the college entrance examination and was sent abroad by Mu Yatang to learn dance. Hearing what Mother Wu said, the Mu family also wanted Mu Qing to enter the entertainment industry.

Even if you can’t wed a big family, you can marry a rich man after becoming famous in the entertainment industry. Mu Yatang did not make a mistake in this step. When Mu Qing came back from abroad, she met Shen Cheng. Shen Cheng is not only a wealthy family but also gave up his heart to Mu Qing. The Mu family had become attached to the Shen family. Now that she had cleared away the gloom of her family fortune, she was really proud of herself.

Mu Wan looked out of the car window, thinking things out in her mind and distracted. The taxi stopped at the end of the lane, and the driver turned the meter and reminded her, “Miss, we are here.”

“Okay, thank you.” Mu Wan took back her sight, and after paying the fare, she opened the door and got out of the car.

The development of Xiacheng did not lead to the development of the Western District. This area is full of old-fashioned buildings in Xiacheng, an alley, and a few houses, all are in blue tiles’ style and white walls with small doorways.

The lanes are neither spacious nor narrow, the cars couldn’t get in, and the street lamps were the ones that were directly mounted on the wall. When Mu Wan was a child, her mother went to pick her up from cram school and bought her a small cake at the shop just down the street. While eating, she would take her mother’s hand and go home.

This road is quite old and long, and it carries a lot of her memories. Even though she had a hard time after her mother died, she walked through it again and thought more of being with her mother.

With her eyes closed, Mu Wan walked to the door of the Mu family’s house. The door was not closed, Mu Wan pushed the door and walked in, crossing the screen wall, and the main hall came into view. Before she saw anyone, she heard Yan Mei’s voice first.

“If you can’t act in this drama, then it’s over. Didn’t Acheng also invest in other dramas for you? Why did you have to screw in this drama?” Yan Mei raised her eyes and glanced at Shen Cheng standing on one side from time to time as she spoke.

After Mu Qing came back from the crew, she lost her temper, and in her anger, she said to move Mu Wan’s Mother’s tomb. Yan Mei was anxious at the time, so she agreed. As a result, Mu Qing’s anger didn’t come down. Later, Shen Cheng came and became a little quiet.

Usually, Mu Qing in front of Shen Cheng has always been quiet and elegant. Now she is suddenly angry, Yan Mei is also worried that Shen Cheng’s impression of her will deteriorate. But Mu Qing was still very capable. After she lost her temper, Shen Cheng looked distressed and said to give her better resources.

Shen Cheng coaxed and persuaded Mu Qing to get forward. When Mu Qing was satisfied, Yan Mei dared to ask what was going on. It turned out that Mu Qing was in the crew today and suddenly was notified that she could not act in this drama. Mu Qing has a high spirit and has been going well after entering the entertainment industry. She has never suffered such grievances like this, so she did not rush to her schedule and went straight back home.

Mu Qing sat on the sofa with her arms on the armrests, stared at the water glass on the coffee table, and sneered.

“It must be Mu Wan who is playing tricks behind her back.”

Speaking of Mu Wan, Yan Mei’s expression changed again. Mu Qing is so concerned about Mu Wan that she has no logic when thinking. Every time something wrong happened, she would blame it on Mu Wan. But if you think about it carefully, Mu Wan is a supporting role, so how can she have such a great ability.

“How can she have such great ability.” Yan Mei said with slight disdain, then turned to look at Shen Cheng and smiled, “A Cheng, what do you say is the reason for your company’s suddenly withdraw their capital this time?”

Shen Cheng stood behind Mu Qing and put his arms on her thin shoulders to comfort her. When Mu Qing got angry, she looked cold and desolate, looking more affectionate than usual.

For the Mu family, Shen Cheng only cared about Mu Qing. Hearing Yan Mei’s question, his eyebrows frowned, and he only said, “It is the group who requested to withdraw the capital, and I did not ask for details. This is not a good resource anyway. It’s what Mu Qing wanted all of a sudden, so there is nothing wrong if she not acting this time.”

“That’s right. That’s right.” Yan Mei echoed.

“I don’t want to let it go.” After Mu Qing finished speaking, she looked at Yan Mei, “When will Dad coming back? Tomorrow, on Mu Wan’s mother’s death anniversary, her tomb will be moved. She has a child, so why are she still buried in our Mu family?”

“Who dares?” There was a faint voice.

~ IN TERMS OF COMPREHENSIVENESS, MU YUNYAO LOST ~ 

Xu Qi smiled and said, “I just returned to the Capital today to visit the Grand Princess, but I heard that the Grand Princess came to Baohua Temple to repay her wish. I should have been waiting quietly at the foot of the mountain, but I really missed the Grand Princess, so I came up here. I wonder if the Grand Princess rest in her room now?”

Mu Yunyao slightly nodded. “The Grand Princess is in a small courtyard in one of the rooms on the easternmost side.”

Xu Qi was so happy, “The wind is getting strong now, so it might snow in a bit. Miss Mu, please don’t get the wind here to prevent it from getting cold. You should better hurry back to your room to get warm.”

“Thank you for the reminder, Miss Xu.”

At this moment, Jin Lan and Jin Qiao rushed over. Upon seeing Xu Qi, who talked to Mu Yunyao, they first knelt and said, “Miss, there’s a breeze. Madam has ordered her servants to come and find you.”

“Got it. This is Miss Xu, the daughter of the Grand Princess’s adopted son, Lord Xu.”

“Greetings, Miss Xu.”

“There’s no need for the two ladies to be so courteous,” Xu Qi had a gentle smile on her face, and her face was filled with elegance and gentleness. Her appearance was not the best, but her bearing was expressly bright and generous. “Oh, it’s snowing. Let’s go back to the room quickly.”

Mu Yunyao raised her head to look at the sky. A small snowflake floated down, so she stretched out her hand to catch a snowflake. When the snowflakes touched her warm fingers, they instantly melted into water droplets that carried a slight coldness. “Let’s go.”

When she returned to the courtyard of Grand Princess Yi De, her cloak was immediately pulled off by Qu Mama. “Young Miss has returned. The Grand Princess discovered that it was snowing and was afraid that Young Miss at Baohua Temple was not used to eating, so she had someone prepare a pot for her. It’s best to eat a pot in the winter when it’s snowing.”

“Qu Mama, Miss Xu is coming.” When she found that Qu Mama didn’t notice Xu Qi on her side, Mu Yunyao quickly gave a voice to remind her.

Qu Mama raised her head in surprise and hurriedly slapped herself lightly on the cheek, “Look at this servant’s eyes. I actually didn’t notice, Miss Xu. When did you return from Yanzhou? Why didn’t you send a letter in advance? Your Royal Highness Grand Princess was still muttering about it earlier.”

“When Father heard that the Grand Princess was going to stay in the Capital for a few more days, he couldn’t help but worry for her, so we hurried over from Yanzhou.”

“Look at the cold air on Miss’s body. Come in quickly and warm yourself up. This servant will go tell the Grand Princess right away.”

Grand Princess Yi De has discussed with Su Qing the dress styles that Mu Yunyao should be wearing when coming of age ceremony. Hearing Qu Mama’s report, she showed a surprised expression, “Xu Fei and Xu Qi are back?”

“Yes, and Miss Xu Qi also went up the mountain. She’s currently waiting in the outer room.”

The Grand Princess Yi De’s forehead twitched, then she smiled. “That child is also very thoughtful. Let’s go out and meet her outside.”

Seeing Grand Princess Yi De walkout, Xu Qi quickly went up and greeted, “Greetings, Your Royal Highness.”

“Quickly get up. Today’s weather is surprisingly cold, and the road is not easy to walk on. It’s hard for you to catch up to me, come over and let me take a look at you. You look much thinner than before.”

Xu Qi stood up and saw some wrinkles on the hem of Grand Princess Yi De’s skirt. She quickly squatted down and helped to arrange it, her movements exceptionally smooth and natural, “Father was worried about the Grand Princess, so we hurried along the way. The carriage is about to fall apart.”

Looking at her movements, the Grand Princess Yi De extended a hand to help her up. “Quickly sit down and rest. Your father’s temper is always so restless, and he didn’t listen to many times. Right, have you met with Yunyao yet?”

“I just happened to meet Miss Mu at the entrance of the temple. It’s all thanks to her for guiding the way.” Xu Qi’s face was full of smiles as she spoke with a sense of closeness to Mu Yunyao.

The Grand Princess Yi De waved her hand, gesturing for Mu Yunyao to come forward. “Xu Fei is my adopted son, so you should call him Uncle. Xu Qi is one year older than you, so you can call her Elder Sister Qi.”

Mu Yunyao smiled as she nodded, curtsied, and said, “Greetings, Elder Sister Qi.”

“Little sister Yunyao doesn’t need to be so polite. I’m the one taking advantage of you here.” Xu Qi intimately held onto Mu Yunyao’s hand. “I’ve always wanted to have a little sister, but unfortunately, other than my two brothers, I’m the only other girl in the house. Usually, I don’t have anyone to talk to, but now I’ve got what I wanted.”

After Xu Qi finished speaking, she noticed Su Qing standing beside Grand Princess Yi De. With a questioning look in her eyes, she asked, “May I know who this lady is?”

Mu Yunyao opened her mouth and said, “This is my mother.”

Xu Qi bowed without hesitation, “Greetings, Madam.”

“Miss Xu is too polite.”

The Grand Princess Yi De smiled as she spoke. “Enough. All of you, sit down. I’m afraid the entire trip here has been so cold. Have Qu Mama order someone to set the table. We need to eat something warm and tasty.”

Very soon, the food was served. A hot pot was placed on the table with steam rising from it. Although it was all vegetarian dishes, it was still exceptionally delicious.

Seeing that the food was almost done cooking, Mu Yunyao wanted to move her chopsticks, but she saw that Xu Qi had already stood up, skillfully helping the Grand Princess Yi De prepare the dishes.

Mu Yunyao’s finger trembled slightly as she placed the dish into Su Qing’s bowl.

“The Grand Princess should eat more tofu. Remember that last year, you were in the Palace, and you still missed the vegetarian dishes from Baohua Temple.”

The Grand Princess Yi De nodded. “It’s hard for you to remember.”

“I remember every single thing about the Grand Princess.”

“Don’t be busy. Let’s sit down and eat together.” During this period of time, the Grand Princess Yi De, Su Qing, and Mu Yunyao had eaten together and used the distinctive dishes of the maidservants. It was just like ordinary people. But after getting used to it, she felt a kind of warmth. Now Xu Qi stood aside and waited attentively, making her think that the meal was less delicious.

Xu Qi did not listen to the Grand Princess and waited for her to finish eating. Then, she sat down to the side and simply ate two bites.

After eating, Mu Yunyao returned to her room to rest. Jin Lan and Jin Qiao helped make the bed with a small entanglement on their faces, “Miss, what do you think of Miss Xu?”

Mu Yunyao raised her head. “It’s the first time we’ve met. Where I can tell you how people are?”

“This maidservant looks at that Miss Xu quite frank and had generous character. I don’t know why, but I kept feeling that she has some sort of enmity towards Miss? Do you think it’s because Grand Princess Yi De wants to acknowledge you as her granddaughter? Thus, She was unhappy?”

“Don’t talk nonsens. Lord Xu is the adopted son of the Grand Princess. If you carefully calculated things, she could be considered the Grand Princess’s adopted granddaughter. Even if Grand Princess Yi De recognizes me as her granddaughter, I would not be a problem to her. Why is she holding any hostility towards me?”

Jin Qiao pouted and said in a small voice, “Just like the Su family. They even related by blood to the Madam. Aren’t they just doing everything possible to persecute them? Sometimes, people’s hearts are the most difficult to fathom to guess. If they can’t think about it, they will do some confused things.”

“Don’t think about all that nonsense. I think the Grand Princess also has some feelings for that Miss Xu. Don’t make things difficult for her just because of some suspicion.”

“Yes.”

~ SLEEP IN THE BED HE SLEPT IN ~ 

When he was celebrating the New Year in the Su’s Residence in Jingling City, he ate a delicious bun for the first time. After returning to Western Guangdong, he thought for a long time before he asked people to create pearl hairpins in the shape of the Chinese zodiac. He only thought about giving one to Yunyao every year if he had the chance in the future. But later on, when he thought about it carefully, Yunyao was going to be celebrating her coming of age ceremony old this year, so he asked people to make another hairpin in the shape of a cat. He took advantage of the Su family’s Second Madam, Lady Qi. When she asked someone to make a hairpin crown for Mu Yunyao, he secretly put it in. He didn’t know if Yunyao liked it or not.

Yue Wang stretched out his fingers and slowly brushed them over the pearl hairpin. The expression in his eyes was warm and exquisite. Ever since he met Mu Yunyao, he had basically placed all of his patience and gentleness onto her, purposely restraining the bigotry and ruthlessness in his heart, afraid that his temperament would scare her. After the two had made a promise on the hunting grounds, he thought that he only needed to wait patiently for a year before he could lock her tightly by his side. However, he never thought that Yunyao was actually the granddaughter of Imperial Aunt … …

Yue Wang took out the sleeping rabbit hairpin that belonged to Mu Yunyaoo’s zodiac sign. He gently brushed it across the Jade Rabbit, and the emotions in his eyes slowly faded until they congealed into an ink-black color like the night. Yunyao was his, and nothing could separate them, not even blood relatives!

The porridge serving was especially lively during the New Year’s Festival. The New Year’s Festival this year was already quite good. There was still quite a lot of food leftover. In addition to that, many women studied embroidery and earned quite a bit of silver from selling it. Thus, people’s enthusiasm to participate in offering porridge at the New Year’s Festival is exceptionally high.

Before, Jingling City was in the limelight. Now that Miss Mu and Ni Yun Fang had come to the Capital, there was no reason for them to be outdone. This was the Capital, under the watch of the Emperor, and the most prosperous city in the Dali Dynasty, the scale of porridge must not be small!

In order to busy himself with the matter of giving porridge during the New Year, Yue Wang did not touch the ground. It was not easy for him to arrange a meeting with Mu Yunyao, but when he found out that she was willing to accompany Grand Princess Yi De to Baohua Temple to repay her wish, it was too late.

In winter, there are cold and frost bursts. Mu Yunyao was afraid of the cold, which was why her clothes were particularly thick.

The upper body is wearing a short-breasted jacket with hazy clouds and flowers. The sleeves and the edges of the neckline are rolled with rabbit fur. The snow-white coat sets off Mu Yunyao’s face looked like it was covered with powder, making her look even more delicate and beautiful. The lower body is wearing a thick purple skirt with green patterns and a fragrant satin embroidered cloak, which makes people feel warm at a glance.

Grand Princess Yi De took the warm stove from Qu Mama’s hands and pressed it into Mu Yunyao’s hands, “Quickly take it. Don’t freeze our Yao’er to death.”

Mu Yunyao looked at herself and then at Grand Princess Yi De and Su Qing. After a small comparison, her face slightly blushed. “Grandmother, I’m wearing pretty thick clothes, so I don’t feel cold right now.”

“You just got out of the carriage, so you haven’t felt it yet. In a little while, the cold wind on the mountain will blow, and you’ll know that you can’t stand it. Take it. I’ll have the Imperial Physician take a look at your pulse and carefully recuperate your body. You can’t be so afraid of the cold like this. You might have to suffer greatly in the future.” Women are expressly afraid of the cold, mainly because of body cold. Although body cold wasn’t a big problem, it still made people suffer greatly, so it was better for him to recuperate early.

Mu Yunyao knew that the Grand Princess Yi De was doing this out of love and care for her, so she didn’t refute. She accompanied the Grand Princess Yi De slowly walked up the mountain.

After walking for about an hour, she finally saw the entrance to Baohua Temple.

The abbot of Baohua Temple, Master Yuanguang, was waiting outside the door. Upon seeing Grand Princess Yi De, he bowed and chanted a Buddhist prayer, “Amitabha, Your Royal Highness Grand Princess, have you come here today to pay your wish?”

A smile appeared on the face of Grand Princess Yi De. “That’s right. My long-cherished wish of many years has been fulfilled, and today I am here to repay my wish. Thank you wait here for us, Master Yuanguang.”

“This humble monk congratulates Your Royal Highness Grand Princess.”

“Thank you, Master.”

Mu Yunyao followed Grand Princess Yi De to the blessing hall and offered incense before kneeling down to pay her respects.

Master Yuanguang recited the scripture to himself for a while before he finally stopped, “Your Royal Highness Grand Princess, please rise up.”

Mu Yunyao stepped forward to help Grand Princess Yi De up, but discovered that Master Yuanguang’s gaze was fixated on her. “Master, if you look at me like this, do you have to say for myself?”

“Amitabha. Young lady is clear-minded, intelligent and exquisite, so you don’t need me to say anything more. I just want to tell the girl that everything was going her way when I see a trace of melancholy in her eyes.”

Mu Yunyao’s eyes trembled, and she smiled as she looked back, “Forgive me for being presumptuous, Master. Master has cultivated for many years. Is it possible that you can do as you wish now?” In this world, there were many misgivings. If one did as he pleased, the world would have long been thrown into chaos. Regardless of whether he said this himself or was entrusted by others, she understood the truth, but it was difficult to achieve it after all.

Master Yuanguang was startled, but he immediately clasped his hands and bowed to Mu Yunyao, “This humble monk has overestimated himself. The sky isn’t bright today, there might be heavy snow, and the side room is ready. Your Royal Highness Grand Princess, please have a rest.”

“Thank you, Master.”

The Grand Princess Yi De’s side room was fixed, the courtyard where she had lived the last time. Mu Yunyao’s yard was arranged to be next door, and it was the same place Yue Wang had lived before.

Jin Lan and Jin Qiao simply cleaned up the room. Seeing Mu Yunyao sitting on a chair without making a sound, they couldn’t help but feel a little curious. “Miss, what’s the matter?”

“It’s nothing. You guys go ahead, clean and pack up. I’ll go out and take a walk.” There are always many people taking turns living in the side room of the temple, so this arrangement wasn’t rude. However, when Mu Yunyao looked at the bed, she felt uncomfortable, as long as she thought of Yue Wang sleeping on it. It seems that there is still a distinct smell on Yue Wang in the side room here.

The scenery of Baohua Temple was very gloomy in winter, without any beautiful scenery. As she aimlessly walked, she unknowingly arrived at the entrance of the temple. She saw a woman kneeling down at the foot of the long stairs, causing her to stop in her tracks.

After the woman finished bowing, she stood up to tidy up her dress. When she raised her head to look at Mu Yunyao, she couldn’t help but reveal a smile. “May I ask if this person is Miss Mu?”

Mu Yunyao smiled as she returned the greeting. “I’m Mu Yunyao. I wonder who Miss is....”

“It is indeed you. I have long heard that when I see a beautiful and pressing lady, it must be Miss Mu. Previously, I had doubts in my heart, but now that I have met the real person, I feel that the rumors are true. I had never seen you before, so I rushed over to greet you. I hope that Miss Mu will not take offense to this. My name is Xu Qi. I was living in Yanzhou before this. Today, I just returned to the Capital with my father.”

“Miss Xu....” Mu Yunyao thought carefully and then understood.

Prince Consort of the Grand Princess Yi De, Xu Yan, also has a younger brother named Xu Pe. He had two sons. The eldest son was named Xu Yuan and was now a Prefecture Magistrate in Hangzhou, while the second son was named Xu Fei. After Grand Princess Yi De’s daughter lost, she had no children, so she recognized him as an adopted son. This Miss Xu Qi was the eldest daughter of Xu Fei.

~ YOU CAN’T MESS WITH THE FOOD-PROTECTING YUE WANG ~ 

Mu Yunyao stood there for nearly an hour, watching as the house was completely demolished and turned into a pile of rubble.

Even though Yue Wang had helped her block the wind, she was still chilled to the bone after such a long time had passed, especially her feet, which were full of pain as if needles were pricking them.

“Eunuch Cheng had someone prepare some ginger soup in the front hall. Let’s goback quickly.”

“Yes.” Mu Yunyao turned her head and once again looked at the houses that had become ruins. She felt an unprecedented sense of relief in her heart.

Eunuch Cheng served a bowl of ginger soup in front of Mu Yunyao and then brought a bowl of sugar, “If Miss feels that the taste is heavy, then add some more sugar. Eating a little more sweet will make it less bitter.”

“Thank you, Eunuch Cheng.”

After Mu Yunyao finished her ginger soup, she didn’t stay any longer and left with Jin Lan and Jin Qiao.

Eunuch Cheng seemed puzzled as he watched the carriage drive off. “Wang Ye, why doesn’t Miss Mu like those houses?”

Yue Wang shook his head: “Since the houses have already been demolished, the reason doesn’t matter anymore. Didn’t Uncle Cheng want to dig the lotus pond? Let’s dig deeper at the place where the house was demolished. It would be great if we could find the spring.”

“Yes. Wang Ye, please be at ease. Even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, your servant will also find a spring for you.”

In the carriage, Mu Yunyao leaned on the pillow, and her expression was inexplicably indifferent.

“Miss, what happened to you?”

Mu Yunyao shook her head and didn’t say anything, but the thoughts in her heart were churning unevenly. Previously, she didn’t know the relationship between her and Grand Princess Yi De. Thus, she only guessed that Jin Wang ordered someone to kill her in Yue Wang’s Palace because he wanted Yue Wang to carry the notoriety of stealing and murdering his brother’s concubine. But now that she knew her identity, she couldn’t help but think more.

The Su family had always been supporting Jin Wang from the shadows. Then, did he know about the relationship between her and Grand Princess Yi De when Jin Wang killed her?

Mu Yunyao raised a hand to rub between her eyebrows. She initially thought that after finding out her mother’s true identity, the matter would become simple, but now it seemed that there were still many things that were difficult to explain.

She and her mother were sold to the Zhang family in her previous life. Was it secretly manipulated by the Su family?

Had she successfully entered Jin Wang’s Palace through her own scheme, or had Jin Wang done it on purpose after knowing her true identity?

She had become Jin Wang’s concubine and had been killed in Yue Wang’s Palace. If Jin Wang didn’t know her true identity, it would only be throwing a stain on Yue Wang’s reputation. But if Jin Wang knew her true identity, he would definitely notify Grand Princess Yi De after her death.

Judging from the Grand Princess’s feelings for her mother, she would still lose her rationality when she saw the miserable state when she died. Even if she valued Yue Wang, she might even destroy Yue Wang to avenge her …

The truth was confusing, leaving her at a loss on what to do.

Jin Lan interrupted Mu Yunyao’s thoughts. “Miss, we’re home.”

Mu Yunyao opened her eyes. The deep look in her eyes instantly became clear and bright. No matter what it was, she was sure that this life was completely different from the previous one because she would not fall into the schemes of the Su family and Jin Wang again.

Soon enough, Yue Wang entered the Palace to tell the Emperor about giving the porridge during the New Year. When the Emperor heard that Grand Princess Yi De had also donated silver taels for support, he immediately nodded and agreed.

Jingling City Laba Festival Porridge had aroused a lot of discussion in the Capital before. Later, it was given back to the people in Jingling City, and the officials also basked in the glow. Now that they also had the opportunity to participate, the officials within the Capital were unwilling to miss out on it. When they found out that the Emperor and Grand Princess Yi De had both donated silver taels, they privately discussed how much it would be appropriate to give a donation.

There are many ways to donate silver taels. If you put up too much, you will feel accused of being corrupt and taking bribes. If you contribute too little, you look to be stingy and don’t support doing good deeds. Those with higher official positions are better. Those with lower official ranks spend their brains and inquire how much silver the upper official wants to contribute. The amount they contributed should not be too small, be despised by their colleagues, nor too much to provoke the officials.

Since it was Yue Wang who proposed to give porridge during New Year’s Day, the Emperor took the opportunity to hand it over to him to preside over the matter, causing Ling Wang and Jin Wang to rush out hurriedly from the Palace. Yu Wang, on the other hand, was so happy, so he waited for Yue Wang to leave the Palace before asking, “If Fourth Imperial Brother need help with, just ask me, I am bound to do it.”

“Thank you, Second Imperil Brother. If I need anything, I’ll definitely ask help.”

Yu Wang nodded and accompanied Yue Wang out. At the same time, he asked curiously: “I heard that Fourth Imperial Brother wants to repair the mansion?”

Yue Wang’s expression did not change. “Where did Second Imperial Brother hear that?”

“There are quite a few officials living around your residence. Many people were startled to hear the sound of house demolition in your residence. I also heard that Miss Mu seems to have gone to your residence to visit?” Yu Wang’s eyes were full of mockery, “Speaking of which, Fourth Imperial Brother, it should time for you to start a family. Take a look at Little Sister Huaiyang. She’s going to be married in the next year.”

“There’s no hurry.”

Yu Wang patted him on the shoulder. “You better be careful and hold her tight. Miss Mu’s identity is no longer the same as it was in the past. I heard that there are many people secretly inquiring about her.”

Not only did Mu Yunyao have to be regarded as a granddaughter by Grand Princess Yi De, but she also had access to Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo, the two main gates leading to her fortune. Furthermore, she has a beautiful face, elegant and beautiful demeanor, so it was hard to tell how many people had secretly thought of her.

Hearing this, Yue Wang furrowed his brows, his tone carrying an indescribable coldness. “Who are they?”

“Ah, what does anyone have to do with it?” Yu Wang didn’t understand what Yue Wang meant for a while, but after seeing his murderous look, he suddenly realized he was asking who was looking at Mu Yunyao. “Cough cough … Fourth Imperial Brother, don’t be impatient. They are just asking and inquiring. There is no specific action yet, so don’t worry.”

Yue Wang mounted his horse and cupped his hands as he bowed to Yu Wang. “Second Imperial Brother, take your time to look around. I have some matters to attend to do, so I’ll be leaving first.” Since Yu Wang was unwilling to share, he would send someone to investigate it.

Looking at Yue Wang, who left quickly, Yu Wang couldn’t help but touch his nose. He had just said those words casually a moment ago and never expected that Fourth Imperial Brother would actually be so serious. He hoped that the people who were scheming in the dark to restrain themselves. Otherwise, they will be targeted by Yue Wang and become the next Su family.

Why does he suddenly feel like he is a little unkind … It must be an illusion. He was just reminding his Fourth Imperial Brother out of goodwill. He didn’t do anything wrong! Yes, that’s it!

After Yue Wang returned to his residence, he told Yu Heng to investigate whether anyone had set their eyes on Mu Yunyao. Eunuch Cheng, who happened to be on the side, heard this and was so angry that his eyes were wide open, “Wang Ye, Miss Mu is so good-looking, has a gentle nature, has a broad vision, and knows how to earn silver. She is especially popular everywhere.”

Yue Wang’s expression became even more solemn. After telling Yu Heng and Eunuch Cheng to retreat, he took a wooden box out from a drawer. It was covered with blue fabric, on which were placed twelve unique Chinese Zodiac pearl hairpins.

~ TAKE IT DOWN IF IT’S NOT PLEASING TO YOUR EYE ~ 

Mu Yunyao had never paid much attention to appearance. After seeing the group of people from the Su family, who had appearances comparable to Heavenly Immortals, but they had hearts like scorpions and snakes, she did not have the slightest bit of care for Eunuch Cheng’s appearance.

“There is no need to be so courteous, Eunuch Cheng. I have long since heard Steward Qin mention you in New Year, but I have never had the chance to meet you. Today’s meeting can be considered as my wish.”

Seeing that Mu Yunyao’s eyes didn’t reveal the slightest bit of unusualness, Eunuch Cheng’s smile became even more sincere. “Miss, quickly go in. The weather is cold outside, your body is weak, please do not suffer any cold air.”

Mu Yunyao smiled as she nodded before turning around and returning to the hall.

After setting the charcoal pot on the table, Eunuch Cheng ordered someone to prepare some refreshments. “Wang Ye doesn’t usually pay attention to food, so the snacks are especially rough. I hope Miss Mu doesn’t mind.”

“The taste is pretty good. Thank you for your trouble, Eunuch Cheng.”

“Miss, you don’t need to say that. Please, eat this snack. This old servant will go down to warm the stove. In a while, Wang Ye will accompany Miss Mu to tour around this place. This mansion had not been renovated in many years, and in these few days, Wang Ye said that he would change the scenery of the mansion. He wanted us to learn from Jin Xiu Garden in Jiangnan. We also set up some fake mountains to plant some flowers and plants, but Wang Ye is not good at these things. If Miss Mu sees that there’s anything to be fixed, please don’t hesitate to give some pointers.”

Mu Yunyao looked at Yue Wang. He was drinking the cup of tea calmly as if he hadn’t heard Eunuch Cheng’s words. “Why haven’t I heard that Your Royal Highness is going to fix up the mansion?”

“Well, I just decided on it today.” Yue Wang’s tone did not sound guilty at all.

Mu Yunyao looked at the expressionless Yue Wang, then at the smiling Eunuch Cheng, whose face grew more frightening. She felt slightly helpless in her heart but at the same time felt an indescribable sweetness, “Then I’ll look around with Your Royal Highness Yue Wang Later.”

The smile on Eunuch Cheng’s face grew brighter and brighter as he scrunched up his face, “Alright, then this old servant shall not disturb Wang Ye and Miss Mu anymore.” There were still guards training in the martial arts practice ground in the backyard. He should hurry to drive those people back to their room to avoid disturbing the mood of Wang Ye and Miss Mu when they went out to visit the garden.

When Eunuch Cheng left, Mu Yunyao suddenly thought of Liu Nan, whom Yue Wang had mentioned before. “Is that Liu Nan still at Your Royal Highness’ estate?”

Yue Wang nodded his head: “Last time at Bao Hua Temple, you warned me to be careful of him. Therefore, I had people constantly watching his movements. I did find some things, but I am still unable to confirm it.”

Mu Yunyao’s fingertip slightly trembled, “Is this Liu Nan really a spy?”

“If nothing unexpected happens, he should be Jin Wang’s men.”

“Jin Wang … As expected, it’s really him....” Mu Yunyao’s expression turned cold. It took her a while before she managed to suppress the killing intent in her heart. “Your Royal Highness Yue Wang, please show me around.”

“Alright.” Yue Wang watched Mu Yunyao fasten her cloak and then accompanied her out of the room.

Yue Wang’s Palace was empty and cold. There were a few Chinese pine trees planted in the front yard. The dark green pine needles were standing on top of the branches. From afar, it looked surprisingly attractive.

After passing through the corridor in the front yard, they entered the martial arts practice ground.

There are horse hoof marks and traces of weapons on the ground. Weapons racks and wooden stakes were erected on one side of the martial arts practice ground, giving off a cold and hard taste everywhere.

Eunuch Cheng had just rushed the people in the martial arts area back to their room. When he turned around, he saw Mu Yunyao standing in the corridor and hurriedly walked over with a smile, “Does Miss Mu dislike this martial arts practice ground? Wang Ye also felt extremely annoying. Thus, he wanted to dig a lotus pond here, plant some lotus flowers, andand being able to wade across the lake on a summer day is would be great fun.”

Mu Yunyao smiled as she glanced at Yue Wang. “Your Royal Highness Yue Wang wishes to change this place into a lotus pond?” This person had previously invited her to ride a horse in the hunting grounds, but now he was changing it to a lotus pond?

“You can change it to what you like, and we could ride around the lotus pond.” Yue Wang’s expression was remarkably solemn, as though as long as Mu Yunyao spoke, he would immediately order them to start work.

Mu Yunyao smiled and raised her hand to point at a house. Her smile slowly faded as she asked, “What are those houses over there for?”

“There aren’t many people in the mansion. Thus, many houses aren’t even needed. There’s no one living there, and it’s usually used to store some stuff. What’s the matter?”

“I see that feng shui in that house aren’t good, so why don’t we tear it down?” That was the place where she had died miserably in her previous life. Even now, she still felt chilled to the core when she saw it.

“Alright, I also think that place’s Feng Shui is not good. Uncle Cheng, take some people to take it down.” Yue Wang nodded happily and gave a direct order to Eunuch Cheng.

“Yes, this house is idle and useless to begin with. It should have been demolished a long time ago. It would be great if you could dig a lotus pond. This old servant will go find people now.”

After Eunuch Cheng left, Mu Yunyao lowered her head and raised the corner of her lips, “Eunuch Cheng wholeheartedly wants to dig a lotus pond, but hasn’t thought of where to draw water from?” The location of Yue Wang’s Palace was very inconvenient to bring water here. This was also the reason why there are no ponds or watersheds in Yue Wang’s Palace.

It was clear that Yue Wang did not think of this point. After frowning and pondering for a moment, he said: “Let people dig deeper. Maybe we will be able to dig to the bottom of the spring.”

Mu Yunyao suddenly laughed. “You’re not talking about digging a lotus pond, but digging a well, right?”

“As long as you’re happy, you can do whatever you want.” Yue Wang looked at the smile on Mu Yunyao’s lips and raised the corners of his lips. He didn’t know why Mu Yunyao didn’t like those houses. But since she did mind and thought that it was not pleasing to the eye, he would help her destroy them. As long as she didn’t reveal that ice-cold and cold expression that she had just shown.

“Boom!” A sound rang out. Mu Yunyao turned her head to look and saw a cloud of dust rise up at the edge of the house she was pointing at.

A group of strong men carried a log. After chanting a slogan, they viciously slammed it against the wall, and a hole was created very quickly.
“Yunyao, this place is too noisy. Why don’t we go to the front courtyard?”

Mu Yunyao shook her head, “I want to see that place dismantled.”

“Alright.”

Rumbling sounds came continuously. Looking at the walls and pillars constantly collapsing, Mu Yunyao felt the barrier that tightly bound her heart gradually fall down. An unprecedented feeling of ease came from the bottom of her heart as if she had transited from the long cold winter to a harmonious spring day.

“If Your Royal Highness want to dig a well, just hit the place where the house collapsed.”

“Alright.” As Yue Wang watched the coldness around Mu Yunyao slowly dissipate, his heart also calmed down. “If I really find the spring, I’ll dig a pond there and plant a lotus flower there. What do you think?”

“Well, if the lotus blossoms bloom, I’ll definitely come and take a look.” Mu Yunyao looked at Yue Wang, and after hesitating for a moment, she said, “Your Royal Highness Yue Wang, aren’t you going to ask why do I look at that house not pleasing to the eye?”

Yue Wang shook his head: “I want to know, but I don’t think you want to say it. Compared to this answer, I don’t want to make things difficult for you any more.”

 
Mu Yunyao was stunned. The tolerance shown to her by Yue Wang made her very grateful. It took a while before she whispered softly, “Thank you....”
