Chapter 1073 - Chapter 1074 - Ning Zheyan came over"Is this poison?" Ai Lin smiled, and accepted the porcelain bottle.
"Yes, this Bloodfire Demon is the best way to defend the little princess. Moreover, the poison that I concoct is extremely rare." As Ning Zheyan said this, her arrogant and delicate smile slowly spread out from the corner of her mouth.
"Then I"ll thank Young Master Ning on behalf of Wan Yu." Ai Lin didn"t say anything. Taking advantage that Mu Jin wasn"t here, Ning Zheyan came here and that could only mean one thing.
Ning Zheyan must have had some doubts and curiosity about her, so she had to keep his distance from Ning Zheyan.
"Then Zheyan will take her leave." Ai Lin didn"t ask how this medicine would be used, and Ning Zheyan also didn"t have the time to explain it to Ai Lin.
However, just as Ning Zheyan reached the door, she immediately flashed in.
He asked anxiously, "Mu Jin is back, what should we do?"
Then he started looking around for a place to hide.
In any case, as soon as he left, Mu Jin would definitely find out.
Seeing Ning Zheyan"s fl.u.s.tered look, Ai Lin suddenly laughed in her heart, she did not expect the current Ning Zheyan to be afraid of Mu Jin.
Ning Zheyan from the "Dream" was not afraid at all.
Mu Jin came, but he didn"t do anything.
"Wherever you go, Mu Jin will notice you." Seeing Ning Zheyan being so anxious, Ai Lin wished that he could hide under the bed.
Ning Zheyan naturally knew that Mu Jin"s inner strength was profound, so it was useless for him to hide anywhere.
Ning Zheyan"s eyes fell on the palace maids lying on the ground and clenched her teeth. Her wisdom in this life would probably be ruined here.
Even if he had hidden himself, what about the palace maids lying on the ground? It was already too late for him to move these palace maids one by one.
In the end, he decided not to hide anymore and stood in front of the door, waiting for Mu Jin to enter.
Ai Lin who was on the bed saw that Ning Zheyan had given up resisting, and could not help but pursed her lips and smile, then donned the ferret fur on the bed and got off the bed.
Just as Mu Jin reached the door, Ai Lin opened it.
Her hair, which did not have a pearl hairpin wrapped around it, scattered randomly on top of the white marten hair. Her hair was dyed with black ink, her snow-white skin was beautiful, and her slightly tired expression was captivated and intoxicated by the hazy moonlight.
Mu Jin frowned and walked over to Ai Lin. He held her delicate hands: "Why did you suddenly get up? Still standing in the doorway? "Hurry up and enter."
"I suddenly want to go see Wan Yu. Will you accompany me to take a look?" Ai Lin used a coquettish tone. Her jet-black eyelashes were as thin as a cicada"s wing, and her clear and sparkling eyes were filled with clarity. The more she looked, the more she seemed like a two or eight year old girl who just married.
Mu Jin held Ai Lin"s hand. Her hand was soft and warm at the same time, and the tip of her brows reflected a gentleness like water.
"It"s cold at night, and you"ve just finished your job. Why don"t you go tomorrow to take a look?" At such a late hour, even more so since the adults couldn"t go, they couldn"t carry the children over.
"Your majesty, I just woke up from a dream and want to go take a look now." Ai Lin held tightly onto Mu Jin"s hand.
In the end, Mu Jin compromised. He reached out his hands to tidy up the ferret hair on Ai Lin"s body, then took Ai Lin"s hand to the Little Princess"s residence.
Ning Zheyan had to wait for Mu Jin to leave before she dared to breathe.
He then quickly organized the scene and fled at top speed.
"What dreams? Is it about Wan Yu? " As long as it was a dream, Mu Jin thought that maybe Ai Lin was dreaming about their future, so there was some nervousness in her tone.
Ai Lin looked at the soundly asleep Wan Yu, her lips full of a gentle and beautiful smile, and gently nodded her head, after that she gently raised her head and looked at Mu Jin: "The Wan Yu who dreamt of us growing up, had a mischievous personality, and was pampered by you."
Mu Jin grinned and hugged Ai Lin: "Be naughty then. Who set the rules that princesses must be proper and dignified? It"s good to be like you. "
"Am I naughty?" Ai Lin seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied.
"Aren"t you being naughty?" Mu Jin lowered his head and laughed, his pitch-black pupils were as deep as the ocean, and also extremely wide.
"That"s what you call having a mind." Ai Lin corrected herself: "If you have your own way of thinking, not listening to you is being mischievous?"
"Yes." Mu Jin spoke again, he realized that Ai Lin"s hands were no longer as warm as before, and spoke with a hoa.r.s.e voice: "Alright, it"s getting late, shall we go back to sleep?"
"Yes." Ai Lin lightly nodded, but in her heart she was thinking, this amount of time, should be enough for Ning Zheyan to return to the plum garden, right?
The lost consciousness of the palace maids were frightened out of their wits when they saw the empress gone from their beds.
Only after knowing that the Empress and the emperor had gone to Princess Wan Yu"s room did they heave a sigh of relief, but what followed was doubt and thought.
How could they just faint like that?
The empress wouldn"t think they"d all fallen asleep, right?
When Mu Jin carried Ai Lin and entered the hall, both of their expressions were unchanging. It was as if they did not know that they had fainted, and the people of the palace also secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Then he lowered his head, pretending that nothing had happened.
Mu Jin"s gaze swept across the palace maids who had their heads lowered. He then looked at the palace and took a light sniff.
But there wasn"t even the shadow of a plum blossom in this bedroom. Then where did the scent of plum blossoms come from?
And clearly, the fragrance of these plum blossoms was also very fresh.
After extinguishing the light, Ai Lin peacefully rested her head on Mu Jin"s arm. Mu Jin"s warm and even breathing was right next to her ear, and his chest was moving up and down regularly.
"Just now …. Ning Zheyan came over. "
Ai Lin opened her mouth to break the silent atmosphere.
Mu Jin was surprised: "He came to find you?"
"Yes." Ai Lin lightly nodded her head: "Looking at Ning Zheyan"s appearance, he probably has suspicions on me, he probably remembers me, but it"s just that he has forgotten everything, looking confused yet trying her best to recall."
Mu Jin"s breathing became a little heavier, and the black color of his eyes became a little darker. He then said: "Tomorrow, let him leave the Li Palace. He has a lot of curiosity, the more he doesn"t understand, the more he wants to understand. Since he dared to come out of the plum garden unnoticed, it means that his curiosity towards you has reached a certain level."
Ai Lin was silent for a moment, then a look of worry surfaced in her eyes: "That"s right, the more she doesn"t understand, the more he wants to know, if you let him leave the palace tomorrow, it"s hard to say if he won"t think of a way to sneak in. I didn"t tell him all this just to get kicked out, I only wanted him to clear the doubts in his heart, if it"s cleared up, he wouldn"t think about anything anymore."
Ai Lin could pretend that nothing happened tonight, but if she didn"t tell Mu Jin, it would be hard to guarantee that Ning Zheyan would come again.
