Chapter 395 - 395 - Playing Card"Your highness, do you really know how to play Qian Ye?" Wei Yuanwei, on the other hand, had just been taught by her. Mu Jin had spent his days with Wen and Wu as his companions, so even if he was proficient in chess and painting, how could Mu Jin know how to play with women?
Mu Jin nodded, then smiled at Wei Yuanwei and said, "Princess, you don"t have to worry about me losing!"
Hearing that Wei Yuanwei did not say anything, the four of them started to play.
Ning Zheyan sat by Wei Yuanwei"s side, looking at the cards of the servant girl, and then looking at Wei Yuanwei"s cards, seeing that there was still one more card to go, he was immediately overjoyed.
Mu Jin, on the other hand, indifferently lifted her gaze. She then replayed the card that she had intended to play and switched to another card.
Wei Yuanwei had won money in the first place, and he was playing Qian Ye purely out of boredom. Since Ning Zheyan was here, he decided to play with her for fun.
However, ever since Mu Jin had joined the team, the situation had become tense.
The two servant girls fought with caution, afraid that others would mess up. In the end, Mu Jin and Wei Yuanwei did not win either of them, but the other servant girl instead.
Ning Zheyan had long since seen Wei Yuanwei listen to her cards, but she was unable to get her hands on one, rather, she got her own hands on it.
When everyone had opened their cards and were preparing to shuffle, Ning Zheyan pointed at Mu Jin"s card, "This card of yours is one-card, why don"t you play it yourself?"
Wei Yuanwei wanted to laugh when she heard this. It was obvious that Mu Jin knew she wanted that card, so he didn"t play it.
Mu Jin found it funny when he looked at Ning Zheyan, "Master Ning, why did I have to call him out? If this king dares to say it, wouldn"t that mean that I"ve won the t.i.tle of "Royal Concubine"? "
However, Ning Zheyan expressed that she was unconvinced, with a look that said "How do you know Little Tail wants this card", he then started to let Mu Jin out his trump card, and immediately turned her head to Xuan Li who was standing by the door the whole time with a face full of suspicion: "Hmph, it must be your master and your servant who colluded, he can just barely see Little Tail"s card standing at the door!"
Xuan Li immediately revealed a look of innocence. He was just standing here, did she not do anything good? Besides, he didn"t know how to play with Qian Ye!
"If Master Ning says so, then the maids on this table are all yours. Then, this king will still suspect that all of you are doing it privately?" Mu Jin"s tone was light.
Ning Zheyan was completely speechless from Mu Jin"s obstruction, but right after, she whispered something into Wei Yuanwei"s ears, causing him to burst out in laughter.
In the next few rounds, it was basically Wei Yuanwei who couldn"t win, but she could never lose. On the other hand, although Mu Jin could win a few rounds, she would always win Ning Zheyan"s two servant girls.
Ning Zheyan was filled with confidence at the start, but now her patience was almost running out.
He simply placed one hand on Wei Yuanwei"s shoulder, the other on his chin, and watched the card game in boredom.
However, just as she held out her hand, Mu Jin placed the card heavily on the table and said to Ning Zheyan with a dangerous aura in his eyes, "Master Ning, don"t you know that men and women shouldn"t be too intimate with each other? , please stay away from this king"s consort … "
Mu Jin"s words were filled with a dark aura, as though as long as Ning Zheyan Break removed her hand from Wei Yuanwei"s body, she would immediately fight with Ning Zheyan.
Ning Zheyan"s expression was obviously unhappy, her cold eyes swept over Mu Jin, but she still took her hand off Wei Yuanwei"s shoulder.
In terms of poison, Ning Zheyan was peerless in the world, but in terms of martial arts, Mu Jin was invincible.
spent almost the entire morning playing the Thousand Leaves of Light. Even when it was time for lunch, Wei Yuanwei still did not lose, while Mu Jin basically won both the silver and jewelry given to his by the two Yanyu Manor maids.
Ning Zheyan expressed that she was about to lose all hope.
"Xie w.a.n.g, do you always come to the backyard to play Chieko with women whenever you"re bored?"
Mu Jin looked at Ning Zheyan, but didn"t say a word. However, there was a kind of profoundness in her eyes, as if she was unsatisfied with how close Ning Zheyan and Wei Yuanwei were standing.
"Master Ning, it"s time for lunch!" With that, Mu Jin stood up and walked into the hall.
Wei Yuanwei looked at Mu Jin"s back. How could she not understand the eyes he used to look at her?
Ning Zheyan was extremely particular about a person"s life, and naturally, she was also very particular about the dishes on the table.
With regards to Ning Zheyan"s body, some dishes and seasonings, Ning Zheyan indeed could not eat them.
As for Mu Jin, she did not feel disgusted with Ning Zheyan"s pickiness either, she merely sent the kitchen to Ning Zheyan"s west wing once again.
Seeing that, Ning Zheyan could not sit here and watch others eat, so she simply whispered into Wei Yuanwei"s ear and went back to the west wing to bask in the sunlight.
At this moment, only Mu Jin and Wei Yuanwei were left at the table. It seemed that they had not eaten at the same table for a long time.
Wei Yuanwei sat on Mu Jin"s hands and ate silently. At this time, Mu Jin picked up a bowl of fresh fish and carefully removed the fish thorns.
"Remember when we were at the Prime Minister"s estate, I caught all eight of the prime minister"s rich fish and roasted them for you to eat. You ate happily, that was the happiest time I saw you eat!" Mu Jin"s soft voice sounded beside Wei Yuanwei"s ears.
Wei Yuanwei looked at the steamed ba.s.s fish in the bowl. The meat was fresh and juicy, and with a dozen different seasonings, the taste was very good.
"Your Highness, why did you suddenly remember to mention this matter?" Wei Yuanwei did not eat the fish that Mu Jin stuffed into a bowl, but only ate a few mouthfuls of rice.
"It"s nothing, I just suddenly recalled something from the past …" Mu Jin spoke sincerely.
In the past, when they had just met, although there were always conflicts between them, that period of time was also the happiest.
The most relaxed moment.
It was as if the longer they knew each other, the further away they were from each other.
Wei Yuanwei gently bit down on his wooden chopsticks, "Don"t mention anything from the past. Time has already changed everything. We won"t be able to go back in time! "
Wei Yuanwei"s words seemed to be unintentional, but it had truly shocked Mu Jin"s heart.
He had originally wanted to recall the past and make Wei Yuanwei somewhat moved, but now Wei Yuanwei had clearly told him that it was truly impossible for them to go back.
First encounters were always good, but … The outcome was not cozy.
"Little Tail, was that the nickname Ning Zheyan gave you?" Mu Jin stayed silent for a while and then changed the topic.
"En, Master Ning said that he doesn"t like to call me by my name, so she called me Little Tail!" Wei Yuanwei nodded.
