Mu Yunyao cut the embroidery threads one by one and carefully embroidered the eyes of the phoenix on her bridal dress bit by bit.
Yue Yang watched from the side, his eyes shining brightly: "Yao"er, did you have to spend so much effort to embroider in the past?" He had never known that it would take so long just a tiny eye. Hearing that, Mu Yunyao raised her eyes and said with a smile, "The phoenix pattern on the bridal dress isn"t too special, so it doesn"t require too much attention. Back then, I used the hands of the Su Family to send the embroidered screen with the mountain and river pattern to the palace, that was the real intention.
For a period of time, my wrist and neck were in so much pain that I didn"t even dare to move a muscle. The fingers holding onto the embroidery needles were so swollen that they had to be nurtured for a long time before being able to recover. " Yue Yang couldn"t help but think back to the situation back then, and he felt that there really was fate between him and Yun Yao: "Back then, when the Su Family angered royal father because of that screen, I had some people investigate the background of the screen and coincidentally found the Weir Village. The first person that appeared in his mind was you.
You guessed right. Later on, I even had people hide it from you and purposely mislead the Su family so that they wouldn"t find out about you. Our Yao"er is truly intelligent. Step by step, she revealed the Su Clan"s true appearance. "
After Mu Yunyao finished embroidering the last needle, she carefully hid the thread under the embroidery thread. After checking that there were no mistakes, she put down the embroidery rack and sat beside King Yue.
Yue Yang pushed the tea cup to her side: "Take a break, you shouldn"t be in too much of a hurry to get married."
Mu Yunyao drank a mouthful of tea and heard the sounds of children frolicking in the snow from downstairs. She couldn"t help but open the window and look outside at the hazy white color. "I really didn"t expect that this year"s first snow would come so early."
"That"s right, the weather is rather dry in autumn. Fortunately, there is plenty of rain in summer and the harvest isn"t affected. However, this year"s winter is cold this early, so I"m afraid it won"t be too good." The places with good harvests were still okay, but the places with bad harvests would probably freeze to death and starve to death many people.
"Master Four, is there any news from the Black Dragon City?" It had already snowed in the capital. The roads of the Black Dragon City had long since been blocked by heavy snow, so it was inconvenient for news to travel back and forth. Thus, they could only wait patiently. On the other hand, on the Tianshui City side, I sent some people to investigate and discovered that the Li Family was secretly retracting their forces.
"I had many people secretly interrogate the merchant that delivers the iron grade equipment. It is a pity that most of them work for money and do not know much. Now, we can only look at Prince Jin"s side." On Prince Jin"s side, the men I arranged for have already been personally invited into the mansion by the Jin Emperor. His Majesty was mindful of the affection between father and son, although he had ordered for the Jin Emperor not to go out, nor did he allow anyone to visit him, he had always been concerned about them.
"Everything went smoothly."
Yue Yang nodded his head: "Prince Jin won"t suspect anything, will he?"
"The recent events have driven Prince Jin insane. Even if there was a sliver of hope, he would still hold on tightly to it like a lifesaver. Moreover, I was extremely careful when making my arrangements so that he wouldn"t be alerted." Although the Duke of Wei had always been impartial and impartial, his second brother was still his grandson after all. Moreover, he doted heavily on his daughter, Imperial Concubine Qi. He had already promised to help him contact the Minister who was in the middle of the court and try his best to secure the position of Crown Prince before the new year.
"Come down."
"The Duke of Wei"s character and att.i.tude have always been respected, especially those honest and straightforward officials. They really admire him, and with the marriage with the Min family this time, Elder Min"s faction will also be inclined towards him. They shouldn"t lose to the King."
"Yes."
Mu Yunyao looked at the snowy scenery for a long time before suddenly raising her head to rub the s.p.a.ce between her eyebrows.
Yue Yang held her fingers tightly, his eyes filled with worry: "Yao"er, what"s wrong?"
"It"s nothing. It"s just that I feel a bit tired from all the things that have happened recently."
The Yuwai King embraced her and leaned her against his shoulder. "Rest for a while, I"ll accompany you."
Mu Yunyao relaxed her body and leaned into King Yue"s embrace. Not long after, she was drowsy and worried about the embroidery matter of the wedding dress. She couldn"t help but mutter softly, "I"ll just close my eyes to sleep for a while. Master Fourth doesn"t forget to wake me up later."
"Alright." Yue w.a.n.g replied softly before turning his head to look at Mu Yunyao. He noticed that she had already closed her long eyelashes and sweetly fell asleep. Seeing her like this, Yue Yang"s heart couldn"t help but ache. For his own matters, she had been worried sick about him recently. When Mu Yunyao woke up again, she could only hear the sound of wheels rolling past stone tablets. She opened her eyes and focused, only then did she realize that inside the carriage she was walking forward to look, the Duke of Yue was holding her in his arms. His movements were especially gentle, as if he was afraid that he would disturb her.
Are we ready to return to the palace? "
Yue Yang lightly helped her up and sat her down, then carefully covered her legs with the blanket: "The weather is cold now, it"s easiest to get cold after waking up, so you should be extra careful normally. You have slept for almost an hour. It is already late in the night, so we should be arriving at the palace gates soon. "
Mu Yunyao was slightly embarra.s.sed. "I didn"t expect that I actually slept for such a long time. When I was getting on the carriage, was it Fourth Master who carried me up?"
"It is indeed me who carried you onto the carriage. Does Yao"er feel happy, or is she not?" Mu Yunyao opened her mouth, but just as she wanted to answer, she hurriedly stopped herself. If she replied unhappily, it was because she didn"t want to have any contact with Yue Tai, the moment she said those words, he would definitely feel hurt and pester her to compensate. If he replied happily, then he would be willing to have such intimate contact with her.
Yue Yang would definitely get ahead of himself.
These days, it was as if Yue Yang had become a completely different person. He stuck tightly to her all day long, not restraining himself in front of her, causing her to laugh at him many times.
As she thought up to this point, Mu Yunyao secretly snorted in her heart and lightly tossed the question back at him. "Fourth Master wants me to be happy in response, or are you unhappy?"
Yue Yang held her in his arms along with the blanket, and gently rubbed his chin on her cheeks: "I hope Yao`er will be happy, and that your heart will be happy, because even if you"re unhappy there"s nothing you can do about it."
Mu Yunyao couldn"t help but raise the corner of her lips. He rubbed her face and it became itchy. She hurriedly smiled as she dodged, and for a time, the two of them became a mess.
Yu Heng purposefully slowed down the carriage outside before raising his head to look outside at the vast expanse of white snow. He then faintly exhaled a cloud of white smoke.
After staying by his prince"s side for so long, he had always felt that life was as lonely as snow. Wasn"t he going to start a wife? While his prince was in a good mood, he might even be able to ask for more rewards. Lady Jinlan was a kind, gentle person. She was beautiful, had a good figure, and spoke in a soft voice, but she didn"t know if she would like someone as coa.r.s.e as him. Perhaps he should try to court Lady Jinlan like the prince, because he thought of how the king sent flowers and ice lamps to Miss Mu. He looked at the snow around him, [Hmm, winter is here, the time to send ice lamps is here again...]
