After figuring out Princess Yin Wan's temperament, Mu Lin got straight to the point: "Princess, you hate hypocrisy so much, so you must be a person of true nature. There's no need to beat around the bush here. What do you want from me?"
Yin Wan had just been threatened by her, so she naturally didn't dare to say anything unpleasant to this smiling tiger. She said reluctantly: "Ask about Emperor Zhechuan..."
"The princess loves the master?" Mu Lin was not surprised at all.
Princess Yinwan's charming face flushed red, which was particularly obvious under the bright moonlight. She was a little embarrassed: "So what..."
Mu Lin lowered his eyes and looked at the lake. Ripples appeared beside the boat, and the moonlight made it look clear and poetic.
Girls' feelings are always poetry...
It’s also quite interesting that both sisters are fascinated by their master.
"Hey, say something!" Yin Wan said impatiently when she saw Mu Lin didn't respond for a long time.
pity…
Mu Lin raised his eyes and looked at her, his face gentle and calm: "Princess, you want to know about Master, but unfortunately, Mu Lin cannot tell you without Master's permission."
Yin Wan's eyes widened and she angrily asked, "Are you kidding me?"
In a hurry, he even forgot to maintain his dignity.
Mu Lin rested his elbows on the edge of the boat, supporting his head lazily. He found her reaction very interesting, with a sense of liveliness that was rare in the fairy world.
"Princess Yinwan, if you want to know the answer, why don't you go ask Master directly? I'm sure he has already discussed the matter with the eldest princess and returned to the palace."
"What do you know, sister!" The irritated voice stopped abruptly.
"Hmm?" Mu Lin leaned to the other side and used his other hand to support his head.
Yin Wan met her playful gaze and suddenly realized: "... You know it, right? You are just teasing me!"
She clearly saw through the sisters' thoughts, yet she was still testing her and pretending to be innocent!
Mu Lin thought to himself, isn't she stupid enough? But she didn't show it on her face. She said slowly, "What do I know? What did I trick you with?"
A monkey-like evil hobby.
"You!" Yin Wan took a deep breath and warned herself not to be angered by this woman. She suddenly thought of something, looked Mu Lin up and down, and sneered: "I should thank you. If I became the disciple of the Emperor, with his noble character of both virtue and talent, I would never have another chance..."
Mu Lin was speechless: "Master also looks at the aptitude when accepting a disciple."
A thousand years of practice is only the strength of an immortal. Given her master's pickiness, he would not be impressed even if Yin Wan practiced for another 50,000 years. On the other hand, the eldest princess has excellent talent and strength, but her appearance is not what Mu Lin wants. She is inferior to her first disciple in Yingzhou in every aspect...
"Oh, you don't understand, a woman like you will never have a chance!"
The difference between master and disciple is an eternal barrier.
Mu Lin didn't need to think about it at all. He looked at her as if she was mentally retarded: "Not everyone admires Master. You'd better not tarnish our master-disciple relationship."
Who knows that Yin Wan looked at Mu Lin as if he was mentally retarded: "Oh, I don't believe it!"
How is it possible that I get along with Emperor Zhechuan every day but don't bow down to his white robe
“… Whatever you think.” Mu Lin was completely unable to communicate with the woman who was obsessed with love.
"Hey, if you really don't like Emperor Orikawa, why don't you tell me about him? I can give you some benefits."
Mu Lin was speechless again, "You really have evil intentions. As a disciple, I must protect my master's privacy. Of course I must refuse your malicious inquiries."
Yin Wan glared at her again: "Having evil intentions? How could I have evil intentions? A beautiful gentleman and a lady are a good match. I am just asking around and pursuing her in a legitimate way. What's wrong with that?"
"Lady, you? Princess, can you be more reserved..."
"Why are you being so reserved? If you find something you like or someone you like, shouldn't you actively fight for it? Are you going to just watch someone else take it away? No wonder I think you're hypocritical."
For the first time, Mu Lin felt that she was no match for a woman, and she even thought that there was a bit of truth in her argument. How... poisonous!
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and speak!"
"Give up. I won't sell you the information about my master..."
"Hey, have you noticed that it's normal for you to talk like this? No need to use the hypocritical 'this Lord' or 'Master' anymore. It sounds distant and cold, and it's so awkward!"
"Aren't you going to stop saying 'this palace'?"
"That's because you tried to control my tone with me, so I reciprocated... or you just speak so easily... Hey, Jiu Cang, I've been so open with you, why don't you tell me?"
"not going to."
"You're so annoying! That's enough, you've lost my friendship!" Yin Wan turned around and yelled at the maid, "Why are you rowing? Go to the shore and return to the palace!"
Mu Lin: “…”
It was too real, and she was immediately abandoned when she lost her usefulness. In a sense, this princess was indeed a person of sentimentality.
When approaching the shore, Mu Lin used her wide sleeves to stuff something into Yin Wan's hand, leaving Yin Wan standing there in shock... Just now, when Yin Wan saw her suddenly approaching her, she thought she was going to hostage and attack her!
What the hell? Yin Wan squeezed the thing in her hand, but didn't show it to ask immediately.
Led by her maid, Mu Lin walked slowly towards the palace. When she saw that she was about to reach the west palace after passing through the corridor, Mu Lin stopped.
It's really a narrow road for enemies...
Mu Lin saw Princess Bi Yuan, who was standing at the far end of the winding corridor, her red lacquered wood and white silk skirt shining against each other. Her beautiful face was shrouded in shadow, and her expression was a little unclear, but Mu Lin instinctively knew that she was looking at him, and her eyes were not kind.
Mu Lin also looked at her, and suddenly a strange thought came to his mind. The eldest princess had so many clothes that she changed into three different sets a day...
Bi Yuan nodded to Mu Lin, who responded politely, and then she left. Unexpectedly, but also reasonable, Bi Yuan didn't like her, and came over to play with her, otherwise would he cause trouble for her
The answer is no. Bi Yuan is the ruler of Penglai Fairy Island. His every move represents Penglai. How could he come to target her? This is a thankless task. Yin Wan can do it, but she can't.
Moreover, since she admired her master, she naturally had to treat his disciple with courtesy, otherwise she would be giving no face to her master and Yingzhou.
Mu Lin returned to the Immortal Palace, which was bright and spacious with thousand-year-old shark candles burning all around. She sat down at the table, waved her hand to let the two respectful and attentive maids leave, and tapped the tabletop with her fingers.
The personalities of these two sisters are really different. Obviously, the elder sister is more difficult to deal with, but the younger sister is not easy to fool either. Although she looks silly, she is not easy to fool either... I just tried it tonight, and I didn't get much. It seems that if I want to obtain the Nine-orifice Divine Ganoderma, I need a more clever method and a more careful deployment.
Mu Lin was not disappointed. He asked the maid to prepare hot water, took a bath, changed clothes, and went to bed.
… … … Qilan Palace … … …
Yin Wan was playing with the Nine Rings out of boredom when she heard the sound of fairy maids paying their respects outside the palace.
"Your Highness the Princess..."
"Is Yin Wan in the palace?" The gentle and amiable voice was the same as before. Everyone in Penglai knew that their eldest princess was a gentle and kind person.
Yin Wan curled her lips but did not stop her hands. Her elder sister seemed to dote on her and indulge her, but she was the kind of person who would not come to her for no reason.
After a while, Biyuan came in. She was alone and the maid was not even told to come in. It seemed that she was not here to act out the scene of sisterly love.
Yin Wan put down the nine-linked ring in her hand and called out, "Sister."
Bi Yuan sat next to her intimately, smiling gently: "What's wrong, our Wan Wan doesn't look very happy..."
Yin Wan continued her words: "I think Jiu Cang is not feeling well. He is so annoying!"
The arc of Bi Yuan's lips widened a little, but there seemed to be a layer of worry on his face: "Hmm? Did Immortal Lord Jiu Cang make Wan Wan angry in some way? Tell your sister about it?" The tone of coaxing a child gave people the illusion of doting.
Yin Wan had long been immune to her hypocritical behavior. She still had an innocent and spoiled expression on her face and complained, "I just don't like her. She's hypocritical and weird. She even dared to threaten to sink my ship. What a piece of shit!"
"Jiucang Immortal Lord actually threatened you? That's too much. I will seek justice for you tomorrow!"
Yin Wan glanced at Bi Yuan's pretended angry face, and pulled her arm as her sister wished: "Don't be angry, sister. I'm so old and I'm still complaining to my elders. I will teach her a lesson myself tomorrow, and you just don't interfere..."
Bi Yuan hesitated and said, "A visitor is a guest. Emperor Zhechuan loves this disciple the most. Don't mess around. This is not good..."
Don't mess around? Aren't you just waiting for me to mess around
Yin Wan hooked her arm and acted coquettishly: "Sister~Are you not going to let me vent my anger? Don't worry, I will be careful and will not embarrass Emperor Zhechuan, nor will I hurt the reputation of our Penglai..."
Bi Yuan touched the top of her sister's head, a fierce look flashed in her eyes: "Sister, of course I believe Wan Wan."
After a while, Yin Wan watched Bi Yuan's departing back with a fake smile, a hint of disdain flashing across her eyes.
At first, she thought that this sister Wang treated her and Xingze sincerely, until she hid in her study while playing hide-and-seek and accidentally overheard her conversation with her confidant.
Haha, all my sincerity was fed to the dog.
The early death of their parents, the stagnant cultivation, the worsening reputation… bit by bit, the nightmares were like poison wrapped in honey, swallowed by the brother and sister who knew nothing about it.
Still waters run deep, dark rivers are foul-smelling, and the seemingly beautiful and peaceful palace is also stained with sin and blood.
Xingze spends most of his time studying outside, just like a fish leaping in the vast ocean; but she wants to continue to stay in Penglai, to flirt with Biyuan and dance with poisonous snakes.
There were no spies monitoring the hall at this time. Yin Wan took out the sesame balls from her sleeve, peeled off the wrapping paper, and gently broke it open, revealing a piece of snow-white paper.
A touching smile appeared on her beautiful face. Just as she thought, the Immortal Lord Jiucang came to Penglai for some purpose.
