“That’s why I asked Madam to test Yun’s feelings. What if she is willing to marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
Anyway, given the current status of our family, it is impossible for Yun to find an ordinary marriage.
In this case, it is better to ask her herself. I have seen her getting close to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the past. Who knows..."
After hearing Mu Jin's words, Mu Qingqing's memories of the day came flooding back to her mind.
"What you said reminds me of something that happened during the day. Yun'er almost fell down, but luckily His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to her aid. I saw the look in Yun'er's eyes when she looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at that time, and it was quite meaningful."
When Mu Jin heard that Mu Peiyun had fallen, she stood up excitedly and asked, "What did Madam say? Miss Yun almost fell today? How can a maid do things? How could she let Miss fall?"
Mu Qingqing rolled her eyes at Mu Jin, rubbed her brows and said impatiently: "Don't blame the maid, she is your precious little daughter."
These words instantly daunted Mu Jin, and he shrank back into his chair weakly. He was the one who had let his wife down in the first place.
Fortunately, his wife was generous and had forgiven him over the years.
They lived a happy and fulfilling life, but it was rare that the lady was so weird today that Mu Jin was afraid to speak.
"Then...Is Yun'er injured?"
As Mu Jin spoke, she observed Mu Qingqing's expression, ready to coax her at any time.
Mu Qingqing shook her head: "No, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rescued us and sent people to escort us back home."
Mu Qingqing only found out about this halfway.
She originally wanted to lift the curtain to get some fresh air, but ended up seeing many unfamiliar faces among the entourage. Mu Qingqing panicked immediately, but unexpectedly one of the entourage bowed respectfully to her.
After asking, I learned that they were the entourage of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. No wonder His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said before he left that he needed to bring more servants with him when he went out.
Mu Qingqing wanted to check the tokens of several people, but was stopped by Mu Peiyun, who shook her hand and said, "Mother, the Crown Prince means well. If he knew that we don't trust him, wouldn't it make him feel disappointed?"
Actually, that was not the case. Mu Peiyun knew that the follower who was speaking had appeared beside Mu Yunchen in her previous life.
That was one of Mu Yunchen's secret guards, Bi Shiqi. He was the only secret guard who could stay by Mu Yunchen's side besides Bi Qi.
Mu Jin nodded to himself. He knew Mu Yunchen's way of dealing with people. After all, he had been in the court for many years, and this prince was praised by many ministers for his outstanding literary talent and brilliant career.
His rival is also the Fifth Prince, but this Fifth Prince always gives him the feeling that he is a smiling but dagger, a villain behind the scenes, and he is not someone he should be trusted to make friends with.
If he must be involved in the court dispute, Mu Jin feels that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is much more reliable than the Fifth Prince.
"Mother Liu, go tell the eldest lady to come to Muqingyuan to have dinner with me." Mu Qingqing hesitated for a moment and instructed Mrs. Liu behind her.
Mother Liu then bowed to Mu Jin and Mu Qingqing and walked out.
Mu Jin smiled awkwardly and asked Mu Qingqing: "It has been a long time since I have had a meal with my daughter. It must be because of Madam's help."
Mu Qingqing didn't even look at Mu Jin, she stood up and walked straight out the door, leaving a sentence: "If you want to have a meal with your daughter, go to Mu Jing Pavilion."
Mu Jin's bared teeth closed instantly. As expected, a man must never make such a mistake, otherwise no matter how generous his wife is, he will always feel sorry for her in this life.
When Mother Liu came to Qingyu Pavilion to deliver a message, Mu Peiyun was lying in front of the dressing table, thinking about what had happened on the way down the mountain from Huguo Temple.
Sujiu and Suniang behind them looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly and puzzledly. Why did their young lady look so listless just after returning from the temple?
Could it be that he just finished removing toxins and is now tired?
"Miss? Are you tired? Do you want to go to bed and rest for a while?" Sujiu asked worriedly.
Mu Peiyun looked at herself in the mirror and shook her head.
Su Niang looked at Su Jiu, then at Mu Pei Yun, and then asked, "Is the young lady hungry? I will go to the kitchen and serve her food."
"Not hungry."
Mu Peiyun let out a long sigh, always feeling that Mu Yunchen was different.
In his previous life, he always looked tender and considerate when he saw her.
Even though he saved himself today, he was cold and expressionless, without any other emotions.
He never said a word to her, never even glanced at her, and never cared whether she was hurt. Was it because his mother was beside him?
Or...something else...
Mu Peiyun didn't want to think further and shook his head quickly, trying to shake out the bad things in his mind.
"Miss, are you upstairs?"
Mu Peiyun was feeling annoyed when she heard Madam Liu calling from the courtyard. Su Niang received the look from her young lady and hurriedly walked out to answer, "It's Madam Liu, but is the Madam calling the young lady?"
"Madam asked me to invite Miss to have dinner together at Muqing Courtyard."
Hearing this, Mu Peiyun stood up and said to the downstairs: "Please come up, Madam Liu, and have a sip of hot tea. Wait for me for a moment."
Mother Liu has been with my mother for many years, and Mu Peiyun respects her very much.
"Thank you for your kindness, Miss. I have passed on the message. Miss, please go over later. I will go back to serve Madam first."
Not long after, Mu Peiyun also arrived at Mu Qing Courtyard. He could smell the fragrance of food from afar. He no longer cared about his previous annoyance and his only thought was about eating.
"Mother, my daughter is here." Mu Peiyun lay at the door, poking her little head inside.
"Silly girl, you are so old and still playing this." Mu Qingqing looked at her daughter lovingly. Without the old man's dinner, she looked much more pleasing to the eye.
But the next second, Mu Jin followed Mu Peiyun's example, leaning over another door and leaning inside, shouting, "Madam, your husband is here."
The smile on Mu Qingqing's face suddenly stopped. She waved her hand to ask the maid beside her to clean up the dishes. Mu Jin rushed forward and held Mu Qingqing's hand.
He said coaxingly, "Madam, don't be angry. I know I was wrong. Another day, no, tomorrow, I will ask Miss Bi from Chuxiuzhuang to come over and measure your size so that I can make you some new clothes. You see, these are all styles from a few years ago. You are tired of wearing them."
Mu Qingqing was almost coaxed, but Mu Jin's next words were not pleasant enough. Mu Qingqing pushed Mu Jin away and asked: "Am I tired of wearing it, or are you tired of looking at it?"
Mu Jin would never rush into someone's trap. She was not as serious and upright as before. She continued to coax Mu Qingqing with a playful smile, saying, "No, Madam, you are still charming. I will never get tired of looking at you."
Mu Peiyun was confused. Was her mother asking her to come over for dinner, or was she asking her to come over...
