The Aloof Prince Chapter 46 - Rumors Everywhere

"Do you believe the words of that dog? Besides Yunjin fearlessly used her life to say it is not true. I as her older brother, with regards to her integrity, I will personally vouch for her. I don't believe that she is foolish enough to look at this hunting dog!"

Mu Yunhan is smiling from ear to ear as he spoke in a manner filled with contempt towards Mu Yiyang. And even in front of everyone, he calls Mu Yiyang a hunting dog. Mu Yunjin restrained herself from laughing at the scene in front of her, but she can't help but be curious. It is reasonable to say that Mu Yunhan is Su Biqing's own son and previously she is forbidden to go out of the Fu. So this Mu Yunhan had no interaction with her. Why are his words, in every means is defending her, towards Su Biqing and Mu Lingzhu, isn't blood thicker? 

When Wei Hanqiao heard her son cursed as a hunting dog by Mu Yunhan, she immediately felt indignant. She saw Mu Yiyang vomit blood, she immediately howled in grief. This unlucky son of hers doesn't know which god he offended. With great difficulty, he endured an injury before and now he has to endure again.

"Someone come and throw these two out of the Fu."

Mu Yunhan frowned as he looked at Mu Yiyang and Wei Hanqiao. After speaking, two people wearing imperial guard armors walked in and dragged Mu Yiyang and Wei Hanqiao out.

When Mu Yiyang and Wei Hanqiao were taken away, Mu Yunhan went to the side and bowed towards Chu Ye cupping both his hands in a proper ceremony.

"Today we let the Fourth Prince see a joke, I don't know how much the fourth prince has seen, to understand this matter?"

Chu Ye stared blankly and smiled before indifferently nodding. When Chu Ye left, only the Mu Family remained inside the front hall.

"Yunhan, didn't you follow Major General Qin in breaking through Bei Yan Mountain pass? How come you suddenly returned?"

Mu Xiang suddenly asked, his eyes gaze at Mu Yunhan filled with concern. Mu Yunhan indifferently replied.

"The fight in Bei Yan Mountain Pass is almost at an end. I especially returned to attend Yunjin and the Sixth Prince's wedding."

"You should have told us in advance that you were returning so that mother can prepare."

Su Biqing also looked at her son lovingly.

"I am tired from the journey. I'll rest first."

Mu Yunhan told Su Biqing before walking in the direction of the gardens. When he passed by Mu Yunjin, Mu Yunhan stopped to hold Mu Yunjin's hand and pulled her out of the front hall. Once they are in the gardens, Mu Yunhan began to shower Mu Yunjin with scoldings.

"So useless ah, before I left, didn't I especially tell you that in this sky you have Elder brother to help you and support you? That you don't need to fear other people?"

"You actually gave me a long face. This family's girl letting a few old ladies inspect your body, you really don't care about your own reputation?"

Mu Yunjin's mouth twitched, this kind of scolding filled with deep concern is a first. She is powerless to retort and can't help but feel embarrassed and smile.

"You seldom return, you don't need to count my faults, aren't you tired? It would be better if you go back and rest."

Hearing her, Mu Yunhan's eyes revealed a trace of surprise. He attentively looked at Mu Yunjin for a long time to look for clues until he arrives at a conclusion.

"Although you are still very much useless, your character is actually a lot cheerful."

Mu Yunjin pulled the corners of her mouth to stand in silence, not speaking at all.

After bidding goodbye to Mu Yunhan, Zi Xiang who was always following Mu Yunjin at her side, She approached Mu Yunjin and gave a long sigh of relief.

"It is very fortunate that eldest young master timely returned today, if not I don't know how the situation will develop."

Hearing this, Mu Yunjin's eyes narrowed concealing a dangerous glint.

"This shows their method has grown, since they can think of something heartless, then don't blame me for being righteous."

Mu Yunjin forgot Chu Ye made an appointment with Mu Lingzhu soon after, Mu Yiyang and Wei Hanqiao suddenly visits. Mu Yiyang started spewing nonsense and by a lucky coincidence, Mu Lingzhu and Chu Ye happened to return at that moment. Is it really a coincidence?

"Miss, your wedding day is near at hand, you must by all means not be impulsive. Whoever is dissatisfied, the eldest young master will naturally take initiative to help you."

Zi Xiang consoled first.

"In the past, is my relationship with my eldest brother always good?"

Mu Yunjin curiously asked. Just looking at Mu Yunhan one would know that his position inside the Fu as the eldest son is extremely good. His words held a lot of weight. If their relationship is really that good then why was she still grounded inside the Fu.

"The eldest young master had always treated Young Miss well, but at that time Young Miss' temper is not like how it is now. Always a yes-man, often irritating the eldest young master. He left unhappy."

Zi Xiang replied. Mu Yunjin raised an eyebrow, really curious. She can't help but think that the object of her improper relations is not Mu Yiyang but Mu Yunhan?

Pei! Pei! Pei! What is she thinking!

When Mu Yunjin and Mu Yunhan left the gardens, Su Biqing ang Mu Lingzhu's figure came out from the front hall.

"Eldest brother's return is really coincidental, if not for him, this affair should have proceeded well. The several mama's we bribed would have definitely say Mu Yunjin is no longer a virgin."

Mu Lingzhu whispered clearly displeased. Su Biqing also sighed a little annoyed.

"That little slut, don't know how tall the incense stick she burned that she had so much luck."

"No matter, I have already assigned a few people across Butterfly Flower City to spread rumors about Mu Yunjin and Mu Yiyang. I believe that soon it will reach inside the palace. When that time comes even if Mu Yunjin is innocent but possessing such extreme rumors even the Imperial Household will not tolerate her."

Mu Lingzhu nodded, her eyes showing her contentment.

"This time I will definitely be able to pull her down!"

......

Once Mu Lingzhu and Su Biqing left the gardens, Mu Yunjin's figure appeared from the cluster of flowers hiding her. She gazed at the two people departing, her eyes indolent and proud. Reaching out her hand, she touched the Phoenix Tail Whip on her wrist. Mu Yunjin faintly smiled as she whispered.

"Heaven is a place you don't go unless you charge in."
......

A day later, rumors are everywhere within Butterfly Flower City. They are all talking about Mu Xiang Fu's secret matter one after another.

"I heard that the Third Miss Mu is actually lowly trash. The Sixth Prince's wedding is just around the corner but she and her second brother have an improper love for each other."

"Yes ah, I also heard that yesterday Mu Xiang fell ill due to anger."

"That Third Miss Mu is soon to marry the Sixth Prince. This time, will the Sixth Prince still want her ah, she is really an evildoer that should not live!"

Mu Yunjin, who is wearing simple plain clothes and a veil as she crossed her arms. Wandering around the streets, she heard many versions of the gossip. And she is the heroine of the gossip. 

At this moment, Mu Lingzhu is holding a palm leaf fan, strolling in the middle of the streets. Completely unaware of Mu Yunjin following her closely all the way. Listening to the rumors, Mu Lingzhu is full of smiles. After some time, Mu Lingzhu and Hongxia went inside a family restaurant. Mu Yunjin smiled at Zi Xiang.

"Do it according to plan."

"Yes Miss."

Zi Xiang replied before running off. Mu Yunjin moved around until she reached the restaurant's door and stealthily entered the restaurant's kitchen. After making a kitchen maid lose consciousness, she exchanged her clothes to that of the kitchen maid and pretended to pick up some tea.

"On the number four private room, a pot of Pu'er tea and osmanthus cake is to be served."

An announcement was made from outside.

"Very well."

Mu Yunjin smiled as she grabbed some tea leaves and put them in a teapot, she fished out a small paper bag of white powder and poured it inside the teapot. After doing all the work, Mu Yunjin turned to leave. In a distance, Mu Yunjin saw a limping figure walking towards the restaurant. Seeing that Zi Xiang already handled the matter Mu Yunjin smiled towards the restaurant's entrance.
......

At the Restaurant's Private room number four, Mu Lingzhu is drinking tea, although she felt that today's tea is not very good yet her mood is exceptionally great so she drank more cups.

"Hong Xia, you go on a trip to the Yan Fu and Wen Fu. Invite Yan Lingchang, and Wen Ruhan, tell them that I am inviting them to some tea."

Mu Lingzhu instructed Hong Xia. Hong Xia nodded and smiled.

"This servant will go."

When Hong Xia left, Mu Lingzhu kept drinking tea, gradually she felt dry and hot inside, fine sweat appeared on her forehead. She thinks that the reason is that the weather is hot. She can't help but drink more tea.

'Knock, knock, knock.' The door of the private room is heavily knocked.

Thinking that Hong Xia has brought Yan Lingchang and the rest, Mu Lingzhu immediately voiced out.

"Come in."

Blurting out the words, she is not aware of how flirtatious she sounded. The door opened only for Mu Yiyang's hobbling figure who walked inside. Seeing that the person is Mu Yiyang, Mu Lingzhu can't help but say:

"Older brother, why are you..."

Mu Yiyang also saw it was Mu Lingzhu inside, he suddenly realized he'd been played with. Panting with rage he walked towards the table and downed a cup of tea.

"Damn it! It is not Mu Yunjin that slut who is here? I came today to find her to settle a debt. Why are you here?"

Mu Lingzhu smiled, her face is already very red.

"Where is Mu Yunjin ah? I have always been here."

Mu Lingzhu spoke, feeling a little fuzzy, her body increasingly getting hotter, unconsciously she already untied her own coat. Mu Yiyang saw this alluring scene and thinks that Mu Lingzhu must have taken the wrong medicine. So he wished to turn and leave, but his abdomen gradually felt hot.

"Your Highness Sixth Prince, is it you?"

Mu Lingzhu suddenly uttered, her blurry eyes happy, looking at Mu Yiyang as she called out. Mu Yiyang caught Mu Lingzhu who suddenly pounced herself on him. He choked on his own saliva.

"Fourth Meimei, fourth meimei, you've got the wrong person......"

That indescribable heat welling inside the two people became more and more difficult to tolerate, they can't stop from embracing each other. Mu Yiyang also unconsciously took off his outerwear holding Mu Lingzhu tightly in his arms.

At this moment, the two are completely immersed in the medicine, they can no longer see who is really in front of them.

"Your Highness Sixth Prince, Lingzhu is really sincere towards you. You must not turn your back on Lingzhu."

Mu Lingzhu leaned on Mu Yiyang's embrace, smiling.

"Very good, Xiao Cui, How can I possibly turn my back on you. I told you out of all kinds of flowers, to me you are the most beautiful."

Just as the two of them can no longer be reasoned with, the door of the private room is pushed open. Immediately followed by several screams from outside the door.

"Ah--"

"What happened ah?"
