Mu Peiyao suddenly felt guilty and began to avoid looking at Mu Yunchen.
"Prince...Prince, what are you talking about? Our child, isn't he good?"
"Mu Peiyao, how long are you going to keep pretending?"
Mu Qingqing, who was about to go in, was stopped by Mu Peiyun and heard the entire conversation.
Mu Peiyun looked at Mu Qingqing in confusion. Mu Qingqing nodded and whispered, "When the child was born, the midwife had been holding him and never passed through my hands. But I watched him from a distance and the child looked weird. It was really a bit..."
Mu Peiyun was stunned by Mu Qingqing's words. Just as she was imagining how weird it was, a familiar voice came from the yard.
"The Crown Princess is here. I had a hard time looking for her."
Mu Yunchen pretended to be calm and walked slowly towards Mu Peiyun with his hands behind his back. In Mu Peiyun's eyes, no matter when she saw Mu Yunchen, he was like a banished immortal, independent, clean and neat.
But at this moment, I was shocked.
"Ah - huh~, Your Highness, it's you." Mu Peiyun turned around and patted his chest, breathing heavily. When Mu Qingqing saw Mu Yunchen, they both nodded to greet each other.
Logically speaking, Mu Qingqing should bow to Mu Yunchen, but on the one hand, Mu Qingqing is Mu Yunchen's mother-in-law, and on the other hand, she is of the royal family and can be considered to be of the same generation as Mu Yunchen's aunt. Therefore, there is no need for the two to perform formalities when they meet on a daily basis.
Mu Yunchen frowned as he looked at Mu Peiyun after she was frightened. Why was his Crown Princess so timid? Could it be that...she had done something wrong?
Mu Yunyu inside heard the noise outside, glared at Mu Peiyao irritably, and said, "I'll settle the score with you later."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the door. The moment he turned around, his face was filled with a sad and painful expression.
"Third brother, you are not in the palace dealing with state affairs with our father, so how come you have time to come to my house?"
As he spoke, his tone was full of decadence and sadness, and his eyes would glance towards Mu Peiyun from time to time.
Before, he had always been looking forward to having a child in Mu Peiyao's mansion, but now...that's all.
Without the child, he no longer had to worry about anything, so he had more choices for his wife. However, for some reason, Mu Yunyu gradually felt that among the many women in this capital, none could compare to Mu Peiyun.
Even though she was already a married woman, she still had charm in his eyes. Could it be that he was blind in the past? He only wanted to use her and ignored her beauty?
But how could Mu Yunchen not see through his obvious thoughts?
At the same time, Mu Yunchen took a step forward and stood in front of Mu Peiyun. He looked at Mu Yunyu with a provocative look and uttered a few words slowly from his thin lips: "I am here to take the Crown Princess home."
In the past, he simply disdained such provocations between men, but at this moment, for some reason, he was actually immersed in it and enjoyed it very much.
Mu Peiyun was stunned by Mu Yunchen's sudden action, but she soon understood what he meant. Was he jealous? It turned out that he could be jealous too.
"Since she is in my brother's house, I will send someone to send the Crown Princess back to the Crown Prince's house safely later. Why bother my Third Brother to come and pick her up in person?"
"Hey, how can I trouble you to pick up my own wife?" Mu Yunchen raised the corner of his mouth, and the sinister expression on his face was self-evident.
Before Mu Yunyu could speak, Mu Yunchen dropped another bomb on him.
"Oh, by the way, on the way here, I sent someone to the palace to inform you that the concubine has given birth. You should be more open-minded, you can have more children. How can a prince be so decadent?
In my opinion, you should cheer up quickly and go to the palace to report this matter in detail to your father and the Empress Shufei."
At this moment, Mu Yunyu's anger reached its peak, and the veins on his neck bulged, as if he was about to fight with Mu Yunchen in the next second.
But she forced herself to suppress her anger. Her folded hands trembled uncontrollably, but she still had to salute Mu Yunchen.
He squeezed out a few words stiffly from between his teeth.
"Since my royal brother has received the Crown Princess, please go back earlier. I have many things to do at home, so I will not keep you two here."
Anyone could hear the anger in Mu Yunyu's words, but Mu Yunchen didn't take it seriously. He naturally took Mu Peiyun's hand and said, "Fifth brother, please stay."
Then he walked towards the door, but stopped after taking a few steps.
"Madam Prime Minister, would you like my carriage to take you back home?"
Mu Yunyu only felt that the tightly clasped hands of the two people just now were very dazzling, and at this moment he stood stiffly with his back to the two people, not moving.
Mu Qingqing saw that everything in the palace had been almost arranged. After all, she was an outsider and it was not appropriate for her to stay for long, so she gave a few instructions and left.
At the door, Mu Qingqing pointed at her own carriage and prepared to say goodbye to the two of them. After all, the Prince's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion were not in the same direction, so it was impossible for them to travel together.
Unexpectedly, Mu Yunchen said, "We can't go back to the Prince's Mansion." Then he took Mu Peiyun and went back to the Prime Minister's Mansion with Mu Qingqing.
After the few people left, Mu Yunyu immediately ordered his servants to barricade the gate of Prince Heqin's mansion.
He returned to the bedroom, walked quickly to the bedside and dragged Mu Peiyao, who was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, off the bed. Soon, bursts of screams were heard from the room.
About a quarter of an hour later, the maids and servants in the palace covered their ears and started to do their respective duties. No one knew what had happened in the room.
There were just a few brave ones who saw Mu Yunyu come out with blood on his hands.
After Mu Yunyu bathed and changed his clothes, and sent someone to prepare a carriage to enter the palace, the palace finally regained some life from its previous deadness.
When the maid entered the room to serve, she saw Mu Peiyao lying on the ground, dying. She subconsciously reached out to check her breath and found that she was still alive.
But no one dared to take the initiative to help her to bed to rest, and Mu Peiyao had just given birth and was very weak.
In addition, he had been crawling on the cold ground for a long time and had suffered inhuman beatings before. After all this ordeal, it was a blessing for him to be able to keep his life.
It was not until late at night that Mu Yunyu returned to the mansion and ordered people to carry Mu Peiyao away. Mu Peiyao, who had already fainted, had a very long dream.
In the dream, I seemed to see again the master whom I met in Huguo Temple before I got married. In a trance, the words "be content with what you have and don't force things" began to take shape.
