The Aloof Prince Chapter 97 - Extremely Ugly

For three days, Mu Yunjin stayed in her bedroom without going out. The food was brought in by Zi Xiang.

"Young Miss, the doctor said that you can stop taking medicine today."

Zi Xiang went into the door and put some hot food on the table.

Hearing this sentence, Mu Yunjin sighed in relief, thinking of the bitter medicine soup, she slightly pouted her lips.

Leaning against the bed, Mu Yunjin looked Zi Xiang.

"Oh, that's right, you mentioned that the Emperor gave me a lot of things. Where are those things?"

"Those things are in the fu's storeroom."

Zi Xiang replied.

"What? Storeroom?"

Mu Yunjin frowned and is about to move out of bed.

"That won't do, I have to get all those things back and find the right time to change it into money."

When Zi Xiang heard the words, she immediately approached Mu Yunjin

"Young Miss, You don't want to stay here that much?"

"I also have to prepare for my future life, don't I?"

Mu Yunjin sighed slightly.

"Young Miss, although you are wholeheartedly planning your future life. This servant feels that it is not impossible for you and His Royal Highness Liu Huangzi."

Zi Xiang secretly muttered.

Mu Yunjin reached out and poked Zi Xiang's head.

"You girl, What are you thinking?"

"Young Miss…..."

Zi Xiang looked at Mu Yunjin with some grievance.

"This servant feels that everything is possible, besides, Liu Huangzi is really good to you."

"……"

Mu Yunjin was speechless, and no longer continued the topic with Zi Xiang. After eating a few mouthfuls, she fell asleep again.

It was evening when she woke up.

Mu Yunjin sat on the bed, stretched out, put on her shoes, and went to the door.

At the moment of opening the door, the opposite room opened the door at the same time. Mu Yunjin heard the sound and looked up, only to see a purple figure coming out of the room.

'Bang--'

Mu Yunjin immediately closed the door, her back leaning against the door, she almost saw Chu Li's face, and she subconsciously closed the door.

After closing the door, Mu Yunjin pursed her lips and is speechless of herself.

'knock knock'

There was a knock at the door behind her, and then Chu Li's faint voice came out.

"Mu Yunjin, why are you hiding?"

'creak'

Mu Yunjin opened the door and looked at Chu Li standing by the door. Annoyed, she asked:

"Who is hiding from you?"

"Oh..."

Chu Li looked down and smiled.

"You seem to have the strength to answer back. It seems that you are almost well."

"It's just a mild cold, it's not a serious illness."

Mu Yunjin snorted.

Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin with a faint smile.

"Tomorrow is Rong Wang's wedding, have you prepared the wedding gift?"

"Gift?"

Mu Yunjin is stunned, she glanced at Chu Li.

"Why do you want me to prepare a gift?"

"You are the mistress of the Huangzifu, does benhuangzi need to bother about these things?"

Chu Li raised his eyebrows and swept his cool eyes at Mu Yunjin.

Mu Yunjin heard the words and rolled her eyes.

"Don't you have a storeroom in your fu? Choose one at random. Anyway, it's just marrying a cefei. We should not use all of our big weapons."

"You should do as you see fit."

Chu Li glanced at Mu Yunjin and was about to leave when he took a step and turned back.

"Tomorrow you don't have to go to the Prime Minister's Fu. You will go to Rong Wang's Fu with benhuangzi.

"En."

Mu Yunjin nodded.

After Chu Li left, Mu Yunjin crossed her arms and leaned against the door. She watched the sunset gradually sink on the horizon and sighed deeply.

The next morning, Mu Yunjin was awakened by Zi Xiang and got up to dress.

'cough, cough, cough'

In front of the dressing table, Mu Yunjin began to cough and looked at her hair being pulled up high in the mirror. Although she was reluctant in every way, today's occasion does not permit her to be too casual.

"Fourth Miss is going to marry into Rong Wangfu. I heard that Rong Wang spent a lot to marry her. He not only went to the door personally to marry her but also sent sixteen people to carry a sedan chair. The beautiful wedding of Fourth Young Miss is going to take place."

Zi Xiang helped Mu Yunjin put on the last jade hairpin and slightly opened her mouth to talk.

Mu Yunjin heard it, but she disagreed.

"Rong Wang is nearly twenty years older than Mu Lingzhu. There is also a Wangfei from the Qin family in Rong Wangfu. She may not have an easy time when she is married into Rong Wangfu than when in Xiangfu."

"That's what she deserves. Who made her treat Young Miss like that in the past."

Zi Xiang spat, it is retribution.

Mu Yunjin pinched Zi Xiang's face and smiled.

After dressing up, Mu Yunjin went out of the door. Chu Li was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard of Glass Spring Pavilion, and seemed to be waiting for Mu Yunjin.

Glancing at Mu Yunjin in a brocade dress and a Madam's hair bun, Chu Li slightly furrowed his eyebrows, he seems to feel... It is not very pleasing to the eye.

"Does it not look good?"

Seeing Chu Li's frown, Mu Yunjin looked down at herself and touched her hair bun again.

Chu Li looked indifferent, and after Mu Yunjin had finished asking, he got up and approached a few steps, then slowly extended his hand and pulled out the hairpin from her bun.

The hairpin is separated from the bun, and her hair that had been pulled up fell instantly. Her fine black hair fell on her shoulder and became disarrayed.

"Chu Li, what are you doing!"

Mu Yunjin is not feeling good and glared at Chu Li.

"Just now, it is extremely ugly."

Chu Li twisted his eyebrows and slightly revealed his dislike.

Mu Yunjin was shocked and reached out to touch her hair hanging down at this time, she was full of anger but was suppressed by Chu Li's sentence.

"Zi Xiang, help me get my hair done."

Mu Yunjin twitched her mouth and sat down.

Zixiang immediately understood and went to Mu Yunjin. She combed a bun for Mu Yunjin in twos and threes. In the end, she only wore a simple butterfly hairpin.

"Xiaojie, okay."

Mu Yunjin nodded and subconsciously looked at Chu Li.

"Let's go."

Chu Li glanced at Mu Yunjin and opened his mouth as his cool voice sounded and then walked in the direction of the front hall.

Mu Yunjin immediately got up and followed, without the heavy bun, at this time her whole body felt lighter.

……….

From time to time in the carriage came the coughing sound of Mu Yunjin. Every time she coughed, Mu Yunjin took out the preserves she had with her and took a bite to moisturize her throat.

"Rong Wang lives outside the city?"

Mu Yunjin drew the curtains and looked out at the street scenery. It seemed that they were gradually heading out of the city.

"En."

Chu Li responded.

Mu Yunjin put down the curtain and lifted a faint smile on her lips.

"Living outside the city, whenever one goes out to attend an important matter and return every day is not very effective."

'Cough, cough, cough.'

After saying that, Mu Yunjin coughed a few more times.

After coughing, Mu Yunjin reached out and caressed her chest, and scolded herself for the bad luck. Jumping on a lake to save people is clearly a good thing, so why is she being tormented this way.

After thinking about it, she only has to sigh that this body is too weak.

Chu Li out of the corner of his eyes, he swept a look at Mu Yunjin. He pursed his lips and said nothing.

After the carriage had been driving for a while, Mu Yunjin gradually heard people's noises and the sound of firecrackers and estimated that they have arrived at Rong Wangfu.

After getting out of the carriage, Mu Yunjin stood side by side with Chu Li. Looking at the large plaque of Rong Wangfu in front of her, she sighed that Rong Wang was also a man of pride and luxury.

Following Chu Li into the door of Rong Wangfu, many officials and merchants came to salute them on the way. When they came to the front hall, Mu Yunjin saw Old General Qin and a dignified woman in a bright red and beautiful dress sitting in the main seat.

After seeing Chu Li and Mu Yunjin, the old General Qin nodded slightly in greeting.

"Today's ceremony of worshipping Heaven and Earth, did General Qin attend as an elder?"

Mu Yunjin leaned closer to Chu Li and asked.

Chu Li nodded.

"Is the woman beside him the Rong Wangfei?"

Mu Yunjin asked again.

Chu Li nodded as before.

"Sixth Brother and Sixth Sister came to whisper sweet nothings."

A playful voice came from one side.

Mu Yunjin didn't even have to turn her head back. Hearing the voice, she knew that it was the annoying fellow, Chu Qing.

Regarding Mu Yunjin's attitude, Chu Qing is not surprised. He laughed and said:

"There are many happy events in Xiangfu recently, one after another. Sixth Brother and Sixth Sister really made a good start."

"Third Prince, are you very idle?"

Mu Yunjin looked at Chu Qing, and did not hide the hate in her eyes at all.

Chu Qing laughed, looked at Mu Yunjin in the eye, and then looked at Chu Li.

"Hahaha, Sixth Sister's face is like this, ben huangzi still know to be discreet. I will not disturb Sixth Brother and Sixth Sister's whispers of sweet nothings."

When the words came to an end, Chu Qing walked away.

Mu Yunjin saw Chu Qing go, snorted, and looked at Chu Li.

"For the first time, I found that it's good to say as little as you do. "

"Are you complimenting?"

Chu Li heard her voice and raised his eyebrows and looked at Mu Yunjin.

"I guess…."

"Brother Li..."

The sound of the voice of Qin Muyue came from the gate.

Mu Yunjin heard the voice and furrowed her eyebrows. Then she saw Qin Muyue, wearing a lemon yellow tobacco skirt, running here briskly.

As soon as she came in front of Chu Li, Qin Muyue smiled like a flower.

"You're here too, Yunjin sister-in-law?"

A moment later, the eyes of Qin Muyue turned towards Mu Yunjin standing beside Chu Li.

Mu Yunjin squeezed out a smile coolly.

"Yes, I'm here too."

"Don't get me wrong, Yunjin sister-in-law, I'm not unwilling to welcome you. I'm just surprised that you didn't accompany your Fourth meimei in Xiangfu."

Qin Muyue looked at Mu Yunjin with a reluctant smile and spat out her tongue.

"Chu Li asked me to come here."

Mu Yunjin lightly replied, both hands behind her.

Qin Muyue heard Mu Yunjin naturally blurt out Chu Li's taboo name, The smile on her face stiffened and her eyes drooped slightly.

Chu Li glanced at Mu Yunjin when he heard her calling his taboo name directly. He was totally free from any annoyance. It was tacit approval of letting her call his name.

"Brother Li, you and I are of the same age. Can I call you that in the future?"

Qin Muyue paused for a moment, looked up at Chu Li, her eyes are filled with expectation.

"No." Chu Li coldly refused.

Qin Muyue blinked sharply, pursed her lips, and amassed a pitiful expression, blinked at Chu Li and said:

"Why is it that Yunjin sister-in-law can but I cannot?"

Chu Li seemed to have never heard, he did not even bat his eyelids towards Qin Muyue. His eyes gently swept through Mu Yunjin on the side, and with a cold and indifferent voice he said word for word:

"You are not ben huangzi's wife."
