The Aloof Prince - Chapter 127: Wishful Thinking
As soon as Qin Muyue"s words were said, everyone in the room looked at Mu Yunjin.
Mu Yunjin glanced at Qin Tai Fei on her sick bed, then looked at Qin Muyue in front of her, and said coldly, "Secret."
Qin Muyue suddenly felt slapped, she narrowed her lips, looked away, and walked to Princess Rong"s side.
On the other side, the Empress Dowager took a few steps forward and looked at Qin Tai Fei on her sick bed, and opened her mouth with regret. "Xianxian, you can rest a.s.sured, this one will take care of these juniors for you."
The Empress Dowager said nothing more, but couldn"t help covering her mouth and smiling, her eyes filled with joy.
Mu Yunjin didn"t bother to care about these people, turned around and walked to Chu Li"s side, raised her eyes to him and said, "Are you going to give your respects?"
"Let"s go." Chu Li shook his head and turned to leave.
Mu Yunjin followed.
Behind them, Qin Muyue looked at the departing backs of the two, her eyes filled with thoughts.
...
...
Walking along the road, Mu Yunjin automatically ignored Qin Taifei"s first sentence and conveyed the second sentence to Chu Li, "Is there a peach tree in Shuiyun Temple?"
Chu Li nodded and glanced at Mu Yunjin.
"Qin Tai Fei said to me just now, so if I have spare time must I go and look under the peach tree in Shuiyun Temple to see if there is something nasty?" Mu Yunjin was curious.
"Speak later." Chu Li didn"t seem to care.
Mu Yunjin a.s.sented with a hum and didn"t speak, and the two kept walking all the way, silent.
Along the way, Mu Yunjin constantly felt that Chu Li"s demeanor was extremely low today, so she was reluctant to talk more, so as not to accidentally step on the minefield.
Sitting on the carriage, Mu Yunjin was lying on the edge near the window, digesting what Qin Tai Fei said, and thinking in circles, what are the other bad things waiting for them?
Mu Yunjin sighed slightly, her eyes filled with deep thoughts.
After returning to the gate of the Prince"s House, Mu Yunjin took the lead to disembark from the carriage first and walked to the door of the house. After taking a few steps, she found that Chu Li had not kept up.
Ding Xian sat outside the carriage and did not intend to get off of it.
"Are you going somewhere else?" Mu Yunjin asked.
Ding Xian nodded, "His Royal Highness will be out of the city for a few days, and was just delayed by the news from the palace, otherwise he would have already been on his way."
"Oh." Mu Yunjin just uttered a whisper, and went into the house, without asking which city they were going to.
Ding Xian saw Mu Yunjin leave, and was a little bit distressed for his master. Then he heard a wrathful voice coming from the carriage, "Go!"
"Yes, Your Highness."
After Mu Yunjin entered the gate of the house, she heard the sound of a carriage coming from behind her, turned around, and stomped when she saw that carriage just quietly leaving.
"Princess, what"s wrong? Qin Tai Fei, is she okay?" Shen Yun welcomed him, and saw Mu Yunjin"s face was not very good, thinking she was concerned about Qin Tai Fei.
Mu Yunjin said in a fit of temper, "I can"t die for a while, not while I have breath in this body."
Shen Yun turned stiff, smiled a little, and walked away, the princess was usually so respectful of Qin Tai Fei.
In the back garden of the Prince"s Mansion, Mu Yunjin eyed the pillars of the gazebo absentmindedly, with her fingers scratching the wood back and forth, making a noisy sound.
Zixiang stood aside, holding a fruit plate, watching Mu Yunjin so absentminded like this, bowing her head, "Miss, you shouldn"t get involved with the dead."
"Um." Seeing that Zixiang was also talking about Qin Tai Fei, Mu Yunjin didn"t deny it, and nodded.
After a while, Mu Yunjin seemed to gather herself, looked at the sky, and put down her hands. "I"ll go out and come back later."
Zixiang nodded.
Mu Yunjin walked to the back door of the palace. Before leaving, she took a red wind horse out of the stables and rode the horse in the direction of Shuiyun Temple.
...
...
After half an hour, Mu Yunjin stopped at the gate of Shuiyun Temple.
After getting off the horse, she looked at the huge Temple, and felt helpless in her heart. There are so many hidden secrets in such a temple that wors.h.i.+ps Buddha.
Mu Yunjin walked in, and went directly to the back of the Temple. If she remembered correctly, there is a peach forest to the back of the mountain.
Immediately after stepping into the back area, Mu Yunjin understood this was not meant to be her day.
She saw the two brothers, Wen Yuan and Ming Yuan, walking towards her with a bucket in their hands. The two people then clocked Mu Yunjin and both parties looked at each other for a while.
Mu Yunjin scowled and walked forward.
Wen Yuan and Ming Yuan froze. When Mu Yunjin neared him, Wen Yuan finally couldn"t help but open his mouth. "That scripture should be useless to you. Why do you want to seize it?"
"And what use is it to you both?" Mu Yunjin asked, c.o.c.king an eyebrow.
"Of course!" Wen Yuan said with excitement, "After s.p.a.ce time monk pa.s.sed on, Shuiyun Temple has not yet had a candidate for abbot. Although Brother Huaiyuan is looked up to by all, he is not the abbot, with the scripture, I would be the best candidate! "
"Oh, so you want to be abbot?" Mu Yunjin captured the meaning in the words.
Wen Yuan nodded.
"Oh ..." Mu Yunjin sneered, "It"s so fortunate that this scripture is in my hands. If Shuiyun Temple made you an abbot, I"m afraid it"s not far from closing the door!"
"You!" Wen Yuan clenched his fists, and intentionally took a step forward, but he was pulled back by Ming yuan on the side who shook his head at him.
Wen Yuan calmed down, and suddenly thought of his first two encounters with Mu Yunyin, she really was not easy to deal with.
So he didn"t say anything more, picked up the bucket and walked to the front yard.
She saw the two just left. Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows and went to the peach forest.
When she came to the Peach forest, Mu Yunjin suddenly realized something.
With so many peach trees, which tree did Qin Tai Fei mean?
Mu Yunjin wanted to go back, sighed slightly, and went into the peach forest, one tree after another, and walked around the entire peach forest for a while, but found nothing that stood out.
At this time, the autumn season is about to fall, and each peach tree is bare and has nothing to look at.
"Hehehe, Princess, you are here." A quiet voice came from behind.
Mu Yunjin turned to look around, and saw Master Huaiyuan She.wondered when he came to Peach forest, standing behind her with a smile on his face.
Mu Yunjin nodded slightly towards Master Huaiyuan, "Is the master strolling by, or did you come to me for a special trip?"
"You are a clever person, naturally you know that I came here to make a special trip to see you." Master Huaiyuan chuckled and squinted at the whole peach forest.
"These peach trees are now bloom and fruitless. They are bare and there is not much to look at."
Mu Yunjin pursed her lips, listening to Master Huaiyuan"s words, she somehow felt he had another meaning.
""Qin Tai Fei came here in the past. Did she have a particular peach tree that she particularly loved?" Mu Yunjin asked outright.
Master Huaiyuan smiled mysteriously. "You like to find out what"s wrong. Sooner or later it will hurt you. If the old man did not guess correctly, you are hiding from the palace of the sixth prince today?"
"..." Mu Yunjin was confused by Master Huaiyuan"s words, and she couldn"t tell whether he was helping her or not.
Seeing Mu Yunjin not saying anything, Master Huaiyuan said, "His Sixth Highness is a thoughtful person who considers everything. The prince and princess are relatively the same in character, so it is better to listen to his words . "
At the thought of Chu Li, Mu Yunjin was a little depressed, and she lost interest in the peach trees in the garden.
Leaving the Peach forest, Mu Yunjin flattened her mouth, and looked curiously at Master Huaiyuan, "Master, do you know what Chu Li has been doing behind the scenes?"
Mu Yunjin always felt that there were many things hidden with Chu Li, and it was not just Rongfei.
Of course, she knew that when she asked, she asked in vain. Master Huaiyuan was one of Chu Li"s people, how could he betray Chu Li and tell all Chu Li"s secrets.
"When the time comes, His Sixth Royal Highness will naturally tell you all." Master Huaiyuan sent Mu Yunjin to the door of the temple, folded his hands together, and gave a bow.
Mu Yunjin pouted her lips. She listened to too much of this monks mysterious words already, and was now numb.
No more.
From beginning to end, Chu Li has always treated her as an outsider.
Even Qin Muyue knew Chu Li a lot more than she, herself, did.
Mu Yunjin felt more and more depressed in her heart. After leaving through the temple gate, she left Shuiyun Temple on horse.
After Mu Yunjin left, from the side of the entrance of Shuiyun Temple slowly came out a purple figure, his hands were behind him, his eyes were staring at the back that was gradually diminis.h.i.+ng.
Master Huaiyuan looked at the person beside him and smiled slowly, "You have taken the things from under the peach tree?"
"Yes." A cold, indifferent voice replied.
...
...
When Mu Yunjin returned to the house, it was already dark.
Zixiang prepared dinner for her, but Mu Yunjin didn"t eat a bite, went straight back to the room and prepared to sleep on the soft couch.
Today, somehow, she was particularly tired.
She soon fell asleep.
After falling asleep, suddenly in the middle of the night, Mu Yunjin opened her eyes, and in the dark and quiet room, there seemed to be a faint sound, crawling on the ground and approaching her gradually.
Mu Yunjin immediately got up and did not light the candle. She could see the moonlight coming in from the outside, and you could see the floor of the room as in a mist. There were two small black dots approaching her.
Seeing this, Mu Yunjin"s heart skipped a beat, her ears p.r.i.c.ked, she looked up at the ceiling, and felt that there was someone up there at this time.
The two little black dots were getting closer at this moment, Mu Yunjin flew away from the bed, stood on the table, picked up the candlestick beside her, lit the candle, covered it with her hands, and exposed only the dim light.
After Mu Yunjin saw the little black spots clearly, her expression sank, and saw two insect-sized larvae crawling step by step toward the direction of her bed.
Mu Yunjin gritted her teeth and looked at the two larvae, her heart burst into anger.
How could she not know what two larvae were.
Not long ago, after hearing that Qin Tai Fei had been infected by a moth insect, she went to find some books in private to learn about such poisons. The larvae in the book portrait was the same one as the one crawling towards her.
Mu Yunjin wanted to stop them, the silver needles in her hands flew out, and they accurately hit both the larvae. The two that were crawling previously were now motionless.
Mu Yunjin blew out the candle and raised her eyes and looked up again. Who is that person on the roof?
Qin Muyue?
If it was her, then this time she was really ill-advised. After tasting the sweetness once, did she think it would go smoothly every time?
Wishful thinking!
