I just want to live a good life

After a night's rest, Su Nuan regained her energy. The wound on her arm looked scary but it was just a superficial injury. Her tendons and bones were not injured and it had little impact on her movements.

As soon as she got up in the morning, she ran to the backyard of Duiyueju and looked up under the trees. She looked for a long time but didn't see anyone on the treetops.

"Isn't it too early? No one has arrived yet." Su Nuan murmured to herself.

Suddenly, a person fell lightly from a tree nearby.

Su Nuan saw this and thought to herself, "This is unscientific." In her opinion, falling from a tree seven or eight meters high would be a matter of a "bang," and a skilled person could roll over to avoid getting hurt. But this person just floated down like a leaf, and there was no sound when he landed.

"Empress Concubine, are you here to look for your subordinate?" Falcon saluted Su Nuan and asked in a low voice.

"Yes, I came here to find you." Su Nuan raised her head and scanned the treetops, "You are alone today."

The falcon coughed lightly, and another person floated down from another tree. It was Liefeng.

"Liefeng pays respect to the Concubine."

"What does the Concubine want to talk to us about?" Falcon asked.

Su Nuan laughed, "It's okay, it's okay, I just want to see if you are there."

After the assassination attempt last night, Su Nuan always felt uneasy. She always felt that the assassin might come to kill her again. She had to make sure that there was someone protecting her before she could feel at ease.

"It's tiring to stay in the tree all the time. Why don't you come with me to Duiyueju and have a cup of tea."

Falcon hurriedly replied: "I dare not!"

"It's just a cup of tea, what's wrong with that?"

"This is against the rules. Besides, His Highness's order is for us to protect the Concubine in secret."

Falcon deliberately emphasized the words "Your Highness's order", and the meaning was very clear.

Actually, Su Nuan just wanted to take the two of them with her for a walk around the mansion, because she felt that since this was the first time the assassin attacked her in the Prince's Mansion, there was a high possibility that he had an accomplice in the mansion. By taking the two of them around, she could announce to the world, "I have someone to protect me, and no one can harm me." This would have a deterrent effect on the enemies hiding in the dark, and they would not dare to act rashly against her.

Unfortunately, Falcon and Liefeng only obeyed Mu Yunting, and she couldn't command them at all, so she had to give up the idea.

After chatting for a while, Su Nuan said goodbye to the two and returned to Duiyueju.

Breakfast has been delivered from the kitchen, the same as usual, steamed buns, white porridge, and a plate of pickled radish.

Su Nuan frowned when she saw such food. She thought that since she was injured, the kitchen could at least take care of her and make her some chicken soup or something, or at least give her some extra dishes. But now there was nothing.

After filling her stomach hastily, Su Nuan thought of the agreement she had made with Mu Yunting. Now that the peony flowers had bloomed as promised, it was time for them to have a fair conversation.

With this conversation, she was confident that she could convince Mu Yunting to live in harmony with her.

"Meixiang, is the prince in the mansion today?"

"Your Highness has entered the palace early in the morning."

Although she was a little disappointed, Su Nuan also understood that the assassination of the emperor was a big deal, and the prince would probably be busy for a while before the matter was concluded.

In the next three days, just as Su Nuan had expected, Mu Yunting went out at dawn and returned home at midnight. He had no time to sit down and talk to her.

The wound on her arm was still healing, so she couldn't run around. She only occasionally went to the backyard to check if Falcon and Liefeng were there. Most of the rest of the time she would stay in Duiyueju, swinging on the swing and appreciating the flowers. Her life was pretty comfortable. The only drawback was that the flower business had stopped in the past few days, and her income had been cut off.

That morning, Su Nuan had just finished washing up when Meixiang hurried into Duiyueju.

"Your Highness, His Highness is in the mansion today and has not gone out."

"Where is he now?" Su Nuan asked.

"His Highness is in the lilac garden now."

Su Nuan knew this lilac garden. It was called a lilac garden, but in fact it was just a dozen lilac trees, but each of the lilac trees was extremely huge.

I heard that this was the place that Mu Yunting valued most in the entire garden. She had been there before she was injured. At that time, flower buds had already grown on the lilac tree. The weather has been good and the temperature is suitable these days. I believe that the flower buds have grown a lot.

Su Nuan changed herself into a light blue dress, which made her look dignified and steady. This kind of dress was most suitable for negotiations.

After changing her clothes, she hurried to the garden. As soon as she reached the door of the lilac garden, she saw Mu Yunting standing under a lilac tree with his back to her.

At this moment, this small lilac garden has become the most dazzling place in the garden, not only because of the flower buds that are about to bloom all over the treetops and the faint fragrance in the air, but also because of the figure standing under the tree, with white clothes dancing in the wind.

Su Nuan thought, if a shower of flower petals could fall at this moment, would it feel like a banished immortal descending to earth?

No wonder Mu Yunting values ​​this place the most, it’s a great place to show off himself!

After clearing her throat, Su Nuan said loudly, "Your Highness the Crown Prince really knows how to choose a place! This place is so beautiful!"

Hearing the voice, Mu Yunting glanced at her and asked in a cold tone, "What are you doing here?"

"Your Highness promised me that if I let those peonies bloom on the Queen's birthday, he would give me a fair chance for a conversation. I just want to talk to Your Highness today."

"Today is not suitable, let's do it another day!" Mu Yunting's voice was still cold, but his tone was a little softer.

"Why isn't today a good day? The sky is high and the clouds are light, the sun is warm and the breeze is gentle. It's perfect to have a cup of tea and talk about life."

"If I say it's inappropriate, it's inappropriate."

Su Nuan pouted behind Mu Yunting's back. She had already waited for three days, and she didn't mind waiting one more day. It was just that Mu Yunting's attitude made her uncomfortable. But he was the prince after all, and he could make her miserable with just a few words. She dared not speak out, so she could only swallow her dissatisfaction and said in a nice voice, "Your Highness, please give me a specific time."

"Go back and wait. I'll send someone to notify you when I'm free."

Interview and wait for notification? Su Nuan's anger soared, and she took a few steps forward and said, "Your Highness has nothing to do now, why can't you sit down and talk with me now? Why do you have to let me go back and wait?"

Mu Yunting suddenly turned around and looked at Su Nuan with contempt: "Xia Qingyan, recognize your identity. I am giving you enough face by talking to you like this. You want fairness, right? Have you seen what fairness looks like? Don't force me to confine you again, hurry back to your Duiyue Residence."

At this moment, Mu Yunting looked like a drunkard with a hangover, his eyes were hazy and bloodshot, his mouth was full of alcohol, and his hair, which was usually meticulously done, was now in a mess. There was no trace of the noble temperament of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

I was so blind just now, and I am exiled to the mortal world, bah! Su Nuan complained in her heart. She knew there was no point in arguing with a drunkard, so she left a sentence "A good woman doesn't fight with a drunkard" and ran out of Lilac Garden.

After coming out, she slowed down her pace, a feeling of defeat came over her. She really wanted to tell Mu Yunting that she had really seen fairness, but even if she told him, he wouldn't believe it!

When we returned to Duiyueju, breakfast was already on the table. It was white porridge with steamed buns again, but today the steamed buns were cut into slices by Meixiang and fried in a pan, giving them an attractive color.

Su Nuan couldn't help swallowing her saliva, which made her even more depressed. The life of the Crown Prince's concubine had forced her into such a state that a piece of fried steamed bread could make her so craving for it.

After taking a big bite of the steamed bread slice, Su Nuan said angrily: "Mu Yunting, just wait for me, one day I will let you taste the taste of eating porridge, steamed buns and radishes every day!"
