The Aloof Prince Pampers His Wild First Rate Consort

The whole private room again sank into absolute silence. They all did not antic.i.p.ate that Mu Yunjin would throw the problem directly to Chu Li.

This is certainly amusing.

Chu Li slightly narrowed his eyes flashing a cold light, the corner of his mouth curved with a smear of teasing smile.

"Comply to heavens will."

These four words let everyone's mind wander. Chu Li's words. .h.i.t the nail in the head, although he did not directly reject Qin Muyue but he also inwardly recognized Mu Yunjin.

Heavens will is really a good justification.

"Humph! Originally this is a nice tea time, but all of a sudden it has dampened my spirits. Wan Xiu, back to the palace!"

The Fifth princess is somewhat annoyed, she got up to leave along with her servant girl. When the Fifth princess left, Chu Qing patted Chu Xin who is sitting on his side. Raising an eyebrow, he smiled.

"Eight Younger Brother, we should go."

Chu Xin nodded immediately. When the two people reached the door, Chu Qing turned around, his handsome countenance still holding a smile as he looked at Qingyuan.

"Little Nine, you won't walk together with older brother?"

Chu Qingyuan is surprised for a moment, soon after she immediately reacted with a mischievous smile.

"Go, of course, I'll go together with Third Brother."

After a few more people walked out, the originally lively private room now only has Mu Yunjin and Chu Li remaining. It is still raining outside the window when Mu Yunjin's leaned on her chair with a deep sigh.

"Ai! It seems that His Highness Sixth prince's Peach Blossoms debt is really a lot."

"Flattery."

Chu Li indifferently whispered. Hearing him, Mu Yunjin laughed.

"Apparently after I marry into your Fu, it will not be easy and comfortable."

"This prince is convinced that you have a way to cope with it."

Chu Li smiled briefly, his ink colored eyes filled with brilliance. At least currently, it seems that she is exactly a person who does not speak of her sufferings but will most certainly get recompense. This is the most outstanding point of her natural instinct. With this alone, she had already attracted his great interest.

......

Evening fell, the rain outside is incessant, the color of the sky is completely black as night. Ding Xian walked inside, and the room that is lighted by candled turned brighter by several candle flames. Mu Yunjin, however, is dazzled by so much light that she creased her brows and frowned.

"It is getting dark, I should go back."

Mu Yunjin can't stand the brightness any longer, got up and spoke to Chu Li.

Chu Li glanced at Mu Yunjin and gave a light nod. When Mu Yunjin walked out of the Private room, she gave a deep sigh. She immediately took out a handkerchief to wipe some candle smoke in her eyes and feeling a little unwell.

"Miss, what's wrong?"

Zi Xiang, who was guarding outside the door all along, saw Mu Yunjin come out and wipe her eyes. She did not understand. Mu Yunjin waved her hand, and she turned to look inside. Only to see through a window seam that inside still have a lot of candle light. Upon seeing this she helplessly shook her head. It seems that in this world n.o.body is perfect, each has their own flaws.

Wait, perfect?

Did she just praise Chu Li as perfect?

Mu Yunjin is frightened with her own thoughts, soon after with a twitch of her mouth she took quick steps leaving the second floor. When they walked out of the restaurant, the pouring rain has already stopped. Mu Yunjin smiled at Zi Xiang.

"Our luck is not bad, the rain has stopped. Let's run."

After the words were said, the two master and servant ran quickly away. At this moment in the second floor, a pair of eyes followed Mu Yunjin's back as she gradually disappears at the distance. Ding Xian who is standing at the side also followed Chu Li's sight.

"Your Highness, this Third Miss Mu does not appear to be an expert on matrix method. Are you sure that she is the one Great Master Huai Yuan is saying that could break the imprisonment matrix of Rong Fei Niangniang?"

......

Mu Yunjin returned to the Fu, pa.s.sing through the gardens, she met Su Biqing and Mu Lingzhu taking a walk. The two people did not expect to meet Mu Yunjin. Their footsteps stopped, trying to make sense of this unpredictable meeting with Mu Yunjin. Aunt Li is also following Su Biqing closely from behind. When she saw Mu Yunjin, like a rat seeing a cat she unconsciously took a step back. Su Biqing noticed Aunt Li's peculiar actions, a little displeased. She recalled that not long ago, inside the Fu's dog pen she found Aunt Li with both hands and feet tied. Her hair a mess, and her face scratched by dogs. She is filled with injury but unable to retaliate. When the bindings were removed, due to being tied for a long time, she was unable to stretch her hand and feet. It took a long time for her to recover, and even after several days she can barely able to stand and walk. Whenever Su Biqing thinks of that matter, she can't help but gloomily sigh. 'That little s.l.u.t is really vicious.'

"It's Yunjin ah, I have not seen you for half a month that mother almost forgotten your existence inside the Fu."

Su Biqing smiled mockingly. Although recently she ate a lot of losses but whenever she sees Mu Yunjin she can't help but say a few words of ridicule.

"The feeling is mutual."*

Mu Yunjin sneered, too lazy to get angry with the mother-daughter pair. By pa.s.sing the two she prepared to leave. Su Biqing saw that Mu Yunjin is about to leave so she shouted.

"Oh! That's right, today, Mother just happened to go to your courtyard to look for you. Conveniently, your coming of age ceremonial robe and wedding dress, it's really pretty good!"

Mu Yunjin's footsteps stopped, soon followed by a shallow laugh.

"Yes, Yunjin also thinks it is pretty good."

"En, this is the first time that Zhu'er is actually inferior to you."

Su Biqing smiled. After those words fell, Mu Yunjin did not pay attention to Su Biqing anymore. Too lazy to quarrel with Su Biqing, she immediately picked up her steps to go in the direction of Ascending Flower Pavilion. Su Biqing laughed as she stared at Mu Yunjin's departing back as she softly whispered to Mu Lingzhu.

"This time because of Mother's trick, Mu Yunjin will surely think that Mother has done something in her ceremonial robe and wedding dress."

"Yes ah, in the former days we have caused her trouble, now we'll use that overly suspicious temper. If no problem arises, it is possible she'll throw away those ceremonial robe and wedding dress. When that time comes, it will certainly be ridiculous."

When Mu Yunjin returned to the Ascending Flower Pavilion, she entered her bedroom and saw her two brocade dresses thrown randomly on the bed. Her eyes narrowed a little displeased. Zi Xiang immediately ran over to pick up the dresses. She carefully inspected them and found no damage whatsoever, she immediately relaxed.

"Fortunately, no problem."

Zi Xiang sighed before continuing.

"Miss, do you think they poisoned the dresses?"

Zi Xiang said as she put down the dresses and looked at her hands, a little scared. Mu Yunjin laughed grimly, she walked past towards the two brocade dresses. She folds them and then stood up to put them back to her wardrobe. Soon after she crossed her arms and spoke in a bad mood.

"This is a child's trick and also a way to fool me."

Zi Xiang stared blankly, not understanding what Mu Yunjin meant.

"Miss will not check it out?"

"I understand that they will not dare to do something to this dresses. These dresses are Qin Taifei, and Ninth Princess' gestures of good will, it was custom made by their designs. If something went wrong with them, it would be the same as offending Qin Taifei and Ninth Princess. I think those two are still able to distinguish it."

Mu Yunjin explained.

Zi Xiang nodded her head, not really understanding everything. She then spoke again.

"Miss, today, they took advantage of when we are not present to do what they want in our courtyard. They messed up our things."

"Let us just put up with them, anyway there are only ten days remaining."

Mu Yunjin said her eyes smeared with deep meaning.

......

The next day, Mu Yunjin who rarely wake up early, intentionally got up from bed early to go to the anteroom to partake breakfast with the other Mu members. At the breakfast table, Mu Yunjin who was accustomed to waking up late, gave a big yawn, looking tired. Su Biqing has just eaten a pastry when she saw this scene, she looked towards Mu Yunjin.

"Yunjin, did you not get a good rest last night? Why do you look tired?"

"Yes ah, thanks to mother's good fortune, I almost did not sleep the whole night."

Mu Yunjin lightly replied. Hearing what was said, Su Biqing and Mu Lingzhu looked at each other. Clearly they were happy with themselves. This time it was Mu Yunjin eating a loss, finally they felt that they recovered some lost ground. Mu Lingzhu looked at Mu Yunjin, her mind filled with what happened that day in Shui Yun Temple. She secretly pondered not knowing what the Empress Dowager has planned. Just then the house keeper hurriedly walked inside, walking beside Mu Lingzhu, he bowed.

"The Fourth Prince sent people to invite the Fourth Miss to go to the outskirts to visit the lake today."

"The Fourth Prince?"

Mu Xiang and Su Biqing were surprised. The housekeeper nodded.

"Yes, indeed, it is the Fourth Prince."

After saying those words, the housekeeper went away. Su Biqing induced a smile. She looked around the room before settling her eyes on Mu Xiang, pondering a little.

"It seems that the Fourth Prince treat Zhu'er well."

Mu Xiang nodded his head, but has an elusive overtone. Who does not know that in the Palace, there are actually two factions; Zheng Taihou and Qin Taifei. Fourth Prince and the Sixth Prince belong to each of the opposing factions. Now her daughters are to be married to the two princes. As the Prime Minister he should hold a neutral stance, now he is afraid that it will no longer be easy to maintain neutral. The Fourth Prince and the Sixth Prince are two really difficult problem ah. Su Biqing seems to see through Mu Xiang's thoughts, she smiled.

"Laoye, it's almost time for the morning court."

Mu Xiang nodded with a dignified expression. He laid down his chopsticks, straightened his official robes and walked out. Once Mu Xiang walked out, Su Biqing looked at Mu Lingzhu with an unhappy look. She immediately smiled.

"Zhu'er, quickly go back and get ready. Let's go."

"En."

Mu Lingzhu nodded. Without any interest showing in her face, she got up and walked towards the garden. Seeing Mu Lingzhu's lack of interest, Mu Yunjin scoffed as she unhurriedly eats some White Fungus Soup.

"It seems that meimei is not too happy."

"Being unhappy is not reflected at the moment, rather it depends on who has the ability to have the last laugh."

Su Biqing smiled smugly.

"En, mother's words makes a little sense."

Mu Yunjin nodded. She stretched her body.

"The Fourth Prince's breadth of mind is really big, knowing perfectly well that meimei likes the Sixth Prince yet still making an appointment with meimei to go visit the lake. I don't know what kind of play it is."

"Heh, on the basis of Zhu'er being Xi Yuan Country's number one talent. Many high officials and n.o.ble persons visits to propose marriage. There is no need to trouble you to worry."

Su Biqing mocked back. Mu Yunjin raised an eyebrow and twitched her mouth.

"I am not meddling, I am just concerned about meimei that's all."

After those words, Mu Lingzhu changed her clothes. After coming out, Mu Lingzhu is already calm and collected. After saying goodbye to Su Biqing, she walked out with Hong Xia.

----------

*Actual translated words are 'no better than each other' but I felt that using 'the feeling is mutual' is more appropriate to the context Yunjin wants to say.
