After dinner, the two didn't speak any more.
Mu Yunjin has been eating with her head down, and she always feels that Chu Li beside her is a little depressed. She guesses that Concubine Rong's secret pavilion may be disturbed and she is in a bad mood.
Thinking of this, Mu Yunjin bit her lip, turned her head to look at Chu Li, and found a topic, "Your Uncle Rong, wants to marry Mu Lingzhu as a side concubine."
Chu Li nodded slightly, seemingly unmoved.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Mu Yunjin also felt bored. After quickly finishing the meal in the bowl, she put down her chopsticks, "I'm done."
After the words fell, before Chu Li could speak, Mu Yunjin got up and walked out of the dining hall.
Chu Li stared at Mu Yunjin's back, frowning slightly.
…
After leaving the dining hall, Mu Yunjin was walking back to Liquan Pavilion, with her arms folded, she looked towards Zixiang, "Do you think this Chu Li took the wrong medicine again?"
"Obviously asked me to wait for him to come back in the mansion, but when we met, he looked so cold again."
Zixiang bit the corner of her lips, "I don't know the Sixth Prince's temper, is it because Miss has made the Sixth Prince unhappy again?"
"No." Mu Yunjin thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure out where she had offended Chu Li.
After returning to the room, Mu Yunjin asked Zixiang to prepare hot water for a bath.
After a while, Zixiang prepared hot water, Mu Yunjin took off her coat, put it on a chair beside her, and then sat down in front of the dressing table, and began to undress her hair.
"Hey, miss, why is there blood on your clothes?" Zixiang held Mu Yunjin's coat and walked in front of Mu Yunjin with a surprised expression.
Mu Yunjin was taken aback, put down the comb in her hand, took the clothes in Zixiang's hand, and indeed saw a few drops of blood on the collar, the color was bright, it was just dyed recently.
Seeing this, Mu Yunjin reckoned that it was Wen Yuan or Ming Yuan whose blood splashed on her body.
Mu Yunjin was a little startled, bit her lips, and frowned slightly. She didn't notice the blood stain just now, and went to the dining room to have dinner with Chu Li. I don't know if Chu Li noticed it.
If he suspected that it was him, he would probably be in big trouble.
"Miss, this bloodstain..." Seeing that Mu Yunjin didn't answer, Zixiang asked again worriedly.
Mu Yunjin took a breath and smiled, "I guess I killed a few mosquitoes while I was sleeping."
"It turned out to be like this, scaring the maidservant." Zixiang immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "Then miss, let's go take a bath first, and the maidservant will wash the lady's clothes first."
Mu Yunjin nodded.
When Zixiang walked out of the room with Mu Yunjin's changed clothes, she happened to meet Chu Li who was returning to Liquan Pavilion.
"I have seen His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince." Zi Xiang stroked Chu Li.
Chu Li responded, and his eyes fell on Mu Yunjin's coat in Zixiang's hand. At this time, the collar was facing up, and the few drops of blood happened to be printed in front of Chu Li's eyes.
Zixiang also seemed to have noticed Chu Li's expression, glanced at the coat, and said with a smile, "Miss was bitten by some disturbing mosquitoes during her afternoon nap, and killed a few of them, leaving behind these bloodstains. I also scared the slaves just now." Jump."
After finishing speaking, seeing that Chu Li didn't speak, Zixiang saluted again, then left with Mu Yunjin's clothes in her arms.
Behind him, Ding Xian looked back at Zixiang, took another step closer, and said in a low voice, "Since the princess is taking a nap, why is she wearing a coat?"
"Heh..." Chu Li suddenly laughed lowly.
"Your Highness?" Ding Xian seemed a little puzzled, looking at Chu Li with curiosity in his eyes.
Chu Li smiled without answering, and glanced at Mu Yunjin's room where the candle was burning. This woman was more interesting than he imagined.
It's really interesting that after years of swallowing his anger in the Prime Minister's Mansion, he developed such an obedient and sensitive temperament behind his back.
…
After taking a bath, Mu Yunjin lay down on the soft couch, leaned against the head of the bed, and took out the Xuanling Manual from under the pillow.
After turning to the first page, looking at the method of refining qi on it, Mu Yunjin became very playful, and followed the steps above to learn how to refine qi.
When gathering all the qi into the dantian, Mu Yunjin took a deep breath, and suddenly felt the real qi flowing through the dantian.
Mu Yunjin was surprised in her heart, but then she thought that the ability to control lightness kung fu should mean that she has some genuine energy in her body, so now she needs to learn to control internal kung fu
Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows, flipped through another page, followed the characters on the page, and began to learn every move above.
After making a few gestures, there was a knock on the door.
Mu Yunjin thought it was Zixiang, so she put the Xuanling Scripture back under the pillow, and casually called, "Come in."
The door of the room was pushed open, Mu Yunjin turned her head to look, and saw the figure walking in, her heart trembled, "Why is it you?"
"Can't my prince come to see you?" It was Chu Li who came.
Mu Yunjin twitched the corners of her mouth in embarrassment, and curled up her collar. Now that she had just finished bathing, she was wearing the light shirt she wore when she was sleeping, and she was a little embarrassed when facing Chu Li.
Chu Li squinted at Mu Yunjin, and saw that she was wearing a white light gown, with no trace of blue silk hanging from her waist without any embellishments, her face was so beautiful, she really felt like a fairy descended to earth.
But after thinking about it, it seems inappropriate to compare Mu Yunjin, a little fox, to a fairy.
After thinking about it, Chu Li slightly raised the corners of his lips.
Mu Yunjin didn't understand Chu Li's reason for coming, seeing the smile on his lips at this moment, she couldn't help shaking her mind, this man is always cold, never thought that he would look so good-looking when he smiled.
"What is it that you came to see me?" Mu Yunjin came to her senses first, and looked at Chu Li curiously.
"The Japanese prince is going to Zhangzhou City tomorrow, will you go?" Chu Li looked up at Mu Yunjin.
Mu Yunjin was taken aback, her subconscious reaction was that she didn't want to go, but after thinking about it, she still asked, "What are you going there for?"
"Take the gold." Chu Li said.
"Gold?" Mu Yunjin raised her brows with interest, "How do you hold it?"
"You'll know when the time comes." Chu Li raised his eyebrows, but his words remained indifferent, "If you don't go, you'll be gone."
Mu Yunjin stared sharply, sitting cross-legged on the soft couch, her eyes wandering around, gold, this is the bargaining chip to survive in this world, although there is already thirty taels of gold, but no one will Too much money.
"If I go, how much gold can I get?" Although she still doesn't know how to get it, Mu Yunjin believes in Chu Li.
Chu Li smiled faintly, "At least five thousand taels."
Mu Yunjin's eyes lit up, she snapped her fingers, five thousand taels of gold was not a small amount, yet Chu Li even said it was the least amount, how could she not be tempted.
Just about to say yes, she thought again, frowned and said, "Qin Muyue, will you go?"
If Qin Muyue goes, she won't go, no matter how much money she gives!
"She won't go, it's just you and me." Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin and added, "Ding Xian won't go this time either."
Originally, Mu Yunjin was a little happy when she heard that only the two of them were going, but when she heard that Ding Xian was not going, Mu Yunjin couldn't help inquiring a bit, "Isn't he your bodyguard? Why don't you take him?"
"For this operation, the less people there are, the better." Chu said sternly, and teased again, "Don't tell me you want to share the gold with people?"
"No, then let's go!" Mu Yunjin couldn't hide the excitement in her eyes, just thinking about how she would be a little rich woman after leaving the Sixth Prince's Mansion with all that gold.
The two reached an agreement, and when Chu Li was about to leave Mu Yunjin's room, there was a loud noise outside Liquan Pavilion—
"Ouch, Empress Dowager, please walk slowly!"
"Go away, Ai's family wants to meet Li'er and Jin'er, where do they live?"
When they heard the voice of Concubine Qin, Mu Yunjin and Chu Li looked at each other with a little surprise in their eyes, and then there was a light knock on the door of the room.
"Li'er, Jin'er, it's Ai's family, can Ai's family come in?" Qin Taifei's inquiry sounded outside.
Mu Yunjin paused, turned her head to look at Chu Li, and only heard Chu Li say softly, "Grandmother, come in."
The door was pushed open, and Princess Qin walked into Mu Yunjin's bedroom with the support of Nanny Qu.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Mu Yunjin sitting on the soft couch and Chu Li standing beside the soft couch, and couldn't help pursing his lips into a smile, "When the Ai family knocked on the door, I was afraid that your good deed would be ruined. , fortunately came in time."
Hearing the ambiguity in Qin Taifei's words, Mu Yunjin lowered her eyes, a little embarrassed, "Why did grandma come here so late?"
"Oh, don't mention it." Concubine Qin found a chair and sat down, then stared at Chu Li with some complaints, "The Ai family heard that the girl of the Qin family has been pestering Li Er for a whole day today, it is really outrageous!"
"Knowing that Li'er has a family now, but still clinging to Li'er's side all day long, without any rules, he doesn't look like a child born into a rich family."
"So, the Ai family decided to temporarily stay in your house during this period of time, and keep an eye on that Qin Muyue at all times, don't let her dare to approach Li'er for half a minute, otherwise the Ai family will immediately kill her!"
The corner of Mu Yunjin's mouth twitched, seeing that the spearhead was directed at Chu Li and Qin Muyue, she didn't speak, and handed over the problem to Chu Li.
Chu Li looked at the furious Qin Taifei, and said slowly, "Grandmother, my son will go out with Yun Jin tomorrow, so he won't be in the mansion for a few days."
"Oh? Is it really He Yunjin?" Concubine Qin seemed a little disbelieving, and cast a sidelong glance at Chu Li.
Chu Li nodded, "Really."
"That's right, you and that Qin Muyue can just play casually for two days, but you can't get tired of being together every day, that girl is not a worry-free material! Ever since the Ai family saw her for the first time, they didn't like her!"
Concubine Qin finished her sentence, and motioned Nanny Qu to help her up, "It's getting late today, Ai's family will rest at your house for a night, and you two should also rest early."
At the end, Concubine Qin winked at the two of them, and added, "It's best for the Ai family to embrace their great-grandson as soon as possible."
After saying that, Concubine Qin walked out of the room leisurely, and before leaving, she even closed the door behind her.
Mu Yunjin rubbed her temples with some headaches, looked at Chu Li who was still standing in front of the soft couch, "It's getting late, you can go back and rest."
"Go and have a look at the door." Chu Li spoke with a rare warmth.
"Huh?" Mu Yunjin didn't understand what Chu Li meant, got out of bed, put on her shoes, and walked towards the door.
After carefully opening a crack in the door, Mu Yunjin saw that the entire Liquan Pavilion was full of guards brought by the palace.
Seeing this, Mu Yunjin let out a low cry, then closed the door, leaning her back against the door, her brows furrowed, "Then are you going to sleep here tonight?"
