Mu Qingyan was worried and planned to leave as soon as she finished speaking, but Bailirou insisted on staying with her to eat together.
She pursed her lips. Although the two had a good relationship, Sister Rou was a princess. No matter how good their relationship was, she had to consider the reputation of the Mu family.
Bailirou guessed her concerns and comforted her: "Don't worry, there are all my people outside the door, and they won't tell anyone."
Having said this, Mu Qingyan already regarded her as her sister-in-law, so she stopped refusing. The two of them finished the meal in a hurry before leaving.
On the way back, Fenxiang also complained: "King Qi actually doesn't even let the princess go. The third princess is his biological sister."
Mu Qingyan's eyes were a little cold, "He only has himself in his heart, there is no family affection." Anyone who blocks him is a stumbling block.
"It's better for us, the prince." Fenxiang said. I'm afraid there is no brother and sister in the capital who have a better relationship than the young lady and the prince.
Even the young master and young lady cousin are not as good as this, Fenxiang thought to herself.
When they returned to the palace, they saw Mu Xuan standing tall and straight, as if he was waiting for someone.
Mu Qingyan raised her eyebrows. It seemed that her brother was not as indifferent as usual.
She walked over quickly and said, "Brother."
Mu Xuan turned around and smiled at her, "Are you willing to come back?"
Mu Qingyan approached him and hugged his arm very naturally. Mu Xuan glanced helplessly and said nothing.
"Why don't you ask Sister Rou why she is looking for me?"
"Yan'er..."
Listening to the man's helpless tone, Mu Qingyan couldn't help laughing. Could she understand that her brother was shy?
Unable to bear to tease him any more, Mu Qingyan held his arm and told him while walking.
Behind him, Mu Ling sighed. Comparing the two brothers and sisters, King Qi and the third princess, Jiang, you can see how big the contrast between the young lady and the prince is.
She also met the Crown Prince in the training camp, but what she saw was the Crown Prince who was indifferent to everyone. Her eyes were opened after she stayed with the young lady.
It turns out that the Crown Prince actually has such a gentle side, and it seems that there is something going on between the Crown Prince and the third princess.
As the two of them walked, Mu Qingyan did not hide anything and recounted what she heard word for word.
"So Sister Rou can no longer visit grandpa for the time being." After saying that, she carefully observed Mu Xuan's face, and sure enough she saw a flash of disappointment in his eyes.
Gee, my brother still cares about Sister Rou, but he never admits it.
Mu Xuan pursed his thin lips and said, "It's okay if you don't come, just in case the Holy One has any objections."
Mu Qingyan almost didn't laugh. Although it was a bit inappropriate to laugh at the moment, she really couldn't help it. Why hadn't she noticed her brother's awkward temperament before?
She gathered her emotions and decided to provoke him. When the two of them went their separate ways, she suddenly turned around and said, "Brother, you have to be more proactive. Sister Rou is a princess, and she may be forced to get married one day."
She was not joking, because in her previous life, Sister Rou was really sent to get married. If she remembered correctly, the other party was a prince of Longyue Kingdom.
Because Prince Longyue Han Li already has a princess, Sister Rou is also the most beloved princess of the Holy Emperor, so she cannot be allowed to be a concubine.
Looking at his sister's leaving figure, Mu Xuan's words about Bailirou going to get married were still echoing in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt.
He was also surprised when he suddenly realized the situation, lowered his eyes thoughtfully, and left after a while.
Mu Qingyan thought that today might be a good day to go out because she met Aunt Jiang again.
This time Mu Yun was not by her side, but there was an extra guard. She pursed her lips.
All the guards in Aunt Jiang's yard were dialed back for surveillance. How could she actually get people to follow her?
"Hey, Qingyan, the weather is so nice today, why do you come to enjoy the flowers?" Aunt Jiang spoke first, with a fake smile.
Mu Qing smoked her cigarette and looked up at the sky. The color was normal, but why did she feel that Aunt Jiang was in a good mood?
Moreover, my energy and energy have improved a lot. Could it be that something happy has happened to me?
Fenxiang stared at Aunt Jiang warily, but she felt relieved when she thought that Mu Qi and Mu Ling were following her.
Mu Qi's martial arts is very high.
Mu Qingyan walked up to her, looked at it first, and then said calmly: "I won't show you the flowers anymore. Auntie, please keep them for yourself and enjoy them slowly."
As long as you don't mess with her, that's fine. For Mu Yun's sake, she doesn't want to take it seriously, but it seems that Aunt Jiang has indeed restrained herself a lot.
Aunt Jiang's eyes darkened, she suppressed the anger in her heart, forced her expression, and then walked past her.
But Fenxiang's eyes fell on Hua Jiao, looking at her somewhat ugly face, feeling strange.
When Aunt Jiang walked away, Fenxiang said in a low voice: "Miss, has Aunt Jiang killed the wild rice?"
Mu Qingyan was stunned, "Hua Xiang?" She quickly realized that Hua Xiang was referring to the maid next to Aunt Jiang.
She looked at Fenxiang, "Why do you say that?" She didn't pay attention just now.
Fenxiang's expression was a little tangled, "I feel like she's a little weird, but I can't put my finger on it."
"What's weird?" Mu Qingyan laughed. This little girl might be thinking too much.
"It's very strange." Fenxiang didn't know how to describe it, she just felt strange, as if she was lifeless.
Mu Qingyan pursed her lips, "Hua Jiao is the person around her, let her go, it's not my business."
Hua Jiao has always been with her. Although the others have changed, she has not. I am afraid she knows what Aunt Jiang has done over the years.
So she won't pity Hua Jiao.
Fenxiang nodded and helped Mu Qingyan back to the yard.
Here, Aunt Jiang returned to the room angrily and smashed a cup.
Hua Jiao calmly packed up the pieces and stood behind her.
Mu Zhi glanced at her and then said, "Madam, why do you need to vent your anger on Miss Qingyan?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Aunt Jiang gave her a sharp look, "What do you know!"
There must be an outcome between her and Mu Qingyan!
Mu Zhi didn't understand very much. He had also heard about some of the things that Aunt Jiang had done before. In his opinion, Miss Qingyan was the legitimate daughter, the daughter of the prince, and the quasi-Crown Princess. The lady should not target her everywhere.
And he didn't see Miss Qingyan deliberately targeting Madam, so he didn't understand why Madam held such grudge against Miss Qingyan.
In the training camp, Mu Xuan's management was extremely strict and nothing like this would happen. Mu Zhi was not very thoughtful, so it was normal that he couldn't figure it out.
"You, get out." Aunt Jiang looked at Hua Jiao coldly.
Hua Jiao nodded, obediently backed out, and closed the door. She didn't have to think about what would happen next.
Aunt Jiang was still angry and looked at the wooden branches, "Come here."
