The Aloof Prince Pampers His Wild First Rate Consort-Chapter 70
Perhaps because she was sitting in the carriage, Mu Yunjin slept very shallowly. So, when the carriage stopped, she opened her eyes and got up.
"We're here."
Chu Li's insipid voice sounded.
Mu Yunjin nodded her head slightly, then she lifted the curtain of the carriage and walked out. She found that it was still dark, and the carriage was parked in front of a house.
"Where is this?"
Mu Yunjin looked around for a while and only saw black around her and can't make out anything.
"River Moon city."
Chu Li replied.
Mu Yunjin hummed an ok, and then saw Chu Li take out the jade pendant from his sleeves, white light illuminated the entire house's courtyard.
Mu Yunjin looked at this dazzling light, she slightly twisted her eyebrows, and could not help but recall from her mind. When she first saw this jade pendant, it was the day she was drowned by Aunt Su.
But at that time, the jade pendant fell on the side of the lotus pond, but it was also late at night, but no such bright light could be seen.
It's so strange.
"The eastern room is lying idle. You will live there for a few days."
Chu Li pointed to a room in the east wing.
Mu Yunjin nodded.
"Good."
"There are still a few hours before dawn. You rest first. Tomorrow morning, this prince will ask Ding Xian to call you."
After saying those words, Chu Li then walked towards the west side of the house.
Mu Yunjin pushed the door into the east wing room and lit the candles. Mu Yunjin took up a candlestick and looked at the furnishings around her.
The wing room layout is simple and stylish, but everything that are needed is on hand.
She reached out a hand to stroke the table, and saw no dust on her hand, it seems that someone often comes to clean it, Mu Yunjin slightly raised the corner of her lip. She then sorted out the clothes she brought, before lying down on the couch.
………..
The next day, Mu Yunjin felt that she had just fallen asleep. There was a knock on the door outside, and the voice of Ding Xian came from outside.
"Huang zi Fei, please wake up."
Mu Yunjin opened her eyes and yawned. She replied with deep weariness.
"I know."
Then she got up and changed clothes. When Mu Yunjin was dressed and sat down at the table, she was stunned for a moment.
There was no dresser in the room, and she was in a hurry and did not bring a bit of rouge powder and other things and the headwear was the only one that she used last night.
But now, she slept with her hair coiled and she had never learned to comb her hair into a bun.
Thinking about it, Mu Yunjin aggrievedly sighed, if she had known she would have brought Zi Xiang. Now that she was used to being waited upon, without Zi Xiang, she does not know how to take care of herself.
After a long time, Ding Xian knocked on the door again, Mu Yunjin opened the door.
"Huang…."
Ding Xian looked at the Mu Yunjin standing at the door, temporarily at a loss for words, he turned around to look towards Chu Li.
Chu Li, in a white clothes stood in the courtyard, he glimpsed at the figure at the side and cast a sidelong glance to look inside and his eyes suddenly flashed with a stunned expression.
He saw Mu Yunjin's face had no rouge powder, showing her natural features, her fine black hair is simply tied by a silk ribbon into a ponytail, she is wearing a simple plain clothes flowing up to her calf, and a pair of high-top boots on her feet. Her whole person is very graceful yet looked confident.
She is even more attractive than when she was wearing make up.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
(TL: He is lovestruck! lolz)
Mu Yunjin thought that Chu Li disliked her for being unsightly, so she pressed her mouth flat.
"I forgot to take along Zi Xiang, and I could not let Guard Ding help me with my make up and comb my hair, right?"
Ding Xian coughed in embarra.s.sment and laughed.
"I can fight and kill, but these combing and makeup, it is best to ask Zi Xiang to come."
"It's very nice."
Chu Li lightly raised the corner of her lips and unhurriedly commented.
Hearing Chu Li's praise, Mu Yunjin herself didn't realize that a blush crept up to her face, she raised an eyebrow and looked at Chu Li.
"Liu Huang zi has good taste."
After saying that, Mu Yunjin remembered to survey the house.
Last night, when they arrived, due to the dim light of the night, it looked like a small yard. Now, looking at it carefully, she found that it has a pa.s.sage behind as far as her eyes can see, furthermore it has many structures.
"Let's go."
Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin, and then walked towards the gate.
Coming out of the house, there was a large alley, and Mu Yunjin walked beside Chu Li and from time to time she looks around for something new and odd.
"Remember, you are not allowed to expose your ident.i.ty here. We are just ordinary business people."
Chu Li casts a glance towards Mu Yunjin as he warned her.
Mu Yunjin nodded, to express her understanding.
In a moment, after crossing the alley, Chu Li came to the main street of the River Moon city with Mu Yunjin.
Just now the sky was just beginning to show light, and it was still early. There were not many people on the street. Only a few peddlers selling breakfast and some aunt who went out to buy vegetables are walking on the road.
Mu Yunjin did not walk a few steps, and then smelled the a sweet smell from the roadside. When she had just wanted to buy some sweet flat cookies and steamed bun, Chu Li entered a restaurant.
In the private room of the restaurant.
"My Lord, what do you want?"
A waiter enthusiastically walked up with a menu.
"Bring all the best breakfast you have here."
Ding Xian opened his mouth for Chu Li.
When the waiter heard him, he smile and walked away immediately.
In a short time, the table was full of breakfast delicacies, and there were many cakes and porridge, but mu Yunjin's interest is lacking because she is still thinking of the flat cookies outside.
"You eat first, I'll go out and will be back shortly."
When Mu Yunjin's words fell, she ran out.
Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin and helplessly shook his head.
Mu Yunjin went out of the restaurant, and ran to the vendor's stall selling flat cookies, looking at the bundle of cookies covered with honey, Mu Yunjin licked her lips.
"Boss, I want five."
"Okay! "
The peddler immediately picked up a piece of oil paper and helped her wrap five cookies.
"They are newly baked, and are still hot."
Mu Yunjin paid money, then took the oil paper, and picked up a cookie and happily ate it.
After returning to the restaurant, Mu Yunjin had finished eating a cookie. Before entering the private room, she folded the rest in the oil paper and stuffed it into her embrace and went inside.
In the private room, the two master and servant are eating breakfast.
Mu Yunjin walked over and sat down, pretending to scoop up a bowl of porridge for herself. Just as she picked up the spoon to eat, a cynical voice was heard.
"The residue on your mouth hasn't been cleaned yet."
(TL: Hahaha I am suddenly reminded of myself whenever I secretly eat junk foods and is trying not to get caught by anyone at home.. but ending up getting caught anyway because of the crumbs all over… Lolz)
Hearing Chu Li's teasing voice, Mu Yunjin pursed her lips lightly, and casually wiped her mouth with her hand, and then grinned at Chu Li.
"Huang zi Fei, you dressing up like this today, gives off a feeling of a chivalrous woman."
Ding Xian smiled towards Mu Yunjin.
Mu Yunjin slightly raised an eyebrow and cupped one fist on her other hand.
"Does guard Ding want to teach me a few moves?"
"Well, let's leave that to your highness."
……….
After leaving the restaurant, the people in the streets gradually increased.
Mu Yunjin always followed Chu Li's side, she did not know where Chu Li was going, but she was afraid that she would only inconvenience herself so she did not inquire.
The summer sun was a bit hot. After walking for about half an hour along the street, the three gradually walked to the outskirts of the city and finally stopped at the base of a mountain.
"You want to go up the hill?"
Mu Yunjin lamented, raising her eyes to look at the mountain, and the weather. Going up the mountain in this heat will make one dizzy.
"Are you going or not?"
Chu Li naturally saw that Mu Yunjin was afraid of the summer heat and looked askance at her.
Mu Yunjin pursed her lips, and finally she lowered her head.
"Of course I'll go."
"En."
Chu Li and Ding Xian walked ahead, and went uphill. Mu Yunjin walked in the back, but when she stepped into the mountain road, she clearly became aware that she pa.s.sed through a peculiar stream of qi.
After a long pause, Mu Yunjin looked back and then took advantage of Chu Li's inattention. She reached out and touched that stream of qi.
Does this mountain have a mysterious array?
Thinking of it, Mu Yunjin pursed her lips slightly, before catching up with Chu Li's footsteps.
The whole journey up the mountain, Mu Yunjin looked around from time to time, but most of her thoughts remained in front of Chu Li.
This deity is mysteriously secretive.
A moment later, after walking halfway up the hill, Chu Li went to the side. He pushed aside some weeds and turned into a dark cavern.
Mu Yunjin looked at this novelty scene, she immediately trotted along and walked in.
Inside the cave, a slight chill came through.
After entering the cave, Chu Li took the jade pendant, to illuminate the way inside the cave, and slowly walked down the steps.
In a moment, Chu Li stopped in a place that looks like pond.
Mu Yunjin also stopped and looked at the pond. At first glance, there were many lotus leaves floating on the pond, but none of them had bloomed any flowers.
"What is this?"
Mu Yunjin couldn't help but ask.
"Black Lotus."
Chu Li gently opened his thin lips.
When Mu Yunjin heard it, she slightly twisted her eyebrows.
"Black Lotus?"
"En."
Chu Li nodded.
Mu Yunjin frowned, and could not help squatting down to observe the black lotus more closely. It was said that white lotus symbolized purity, and black lotus symbolized darkness.
Chu Li has raised so many black lotus flowers here. What is he doing?
"Your Highness, the daoist priest said that the black lotus will be able to bloom after three years, and now there is only a hundred days left, and I don't know if this black lotus will really blossom."
Ding Xian spoke.
"What's the magic of this black lotus? And why wait for three years to bloom?"
Mu Yunjin tilted her head to look at Chu Li.
Chu Li heard, and slowly spoke, and his voice was light.
"Because it is magical, that it has to wait for three years."
"……"
Mu Yunjin is at a loss for words, she wants to make complaints about the sentence, his words and her words made no difference okay?
Though she think so, she has some curiosity about these black lotus in this cave. Is it related to what Chu Li has been looking for?
This man really have too many secrets.
……….
After coming out of the cave, Ding Xian went to Chu Li's side and asked.
"Now, do you want to see that old road?" "
Chu Li paused to look at Mu Yunjin, his eyes deep in thought.
Mu Yunjin saw this, and she knew that Chu Li did not want to take her, so she tactfully opened her mouth.
"You should go, I just saw a lot of new things in the street. I can walk around alone."
"And also, I know the way back."
Mu Yunjin added a sentence.
Hearing it, Chu Li pursed his lips, then slightly nodded.
"Then you be careful, and if there is something, call out the secret guards."
"En."
Mu Yunjin slightly curled her lip.
After they reached a consensus, Chu Li and Ding Xian tiptoed a little bit, and both used Qinggong and flew away from there. In the blink of an eye, the figures skillfully disappeared in front of Mu Yunjin's eyes.
