Chapter 20 The Nine Princes of Yue
"Ahem...what are you doing?"
Mu Qingyi raised her eyes and smiled, "The Ninth Prince also knows that Qingyi is just an unpopular daughter, so she naturally can't afford any good things. If she is negligent, please forgive me." Although she is not proficient in medical treatment, she knows that she will definitely not be able to smell the pungent sound of Rong Jin. There are also some spices that can no longer be used, and she poured them into the incense burner before she could even handle them.
Rong Jin stared at Mu Qingyi for a while, and finally laughed softly, "Miss Four is really interesting. Since the Fourth Miss doesn't welcome me, I will say goodbye."
"No." Seeing Rong Jin turn around and walk out, Mu Qingyi didn't worry that he would be seen. Since he could enter Lanzhiyuan quietly and not be discovered, he could naturally go out quietly. But... watching Rong Jin's figure disappear outside the door, Qingyi's expression slowly sinks.
As the prince of Yue Kingdom, Rong Jin would never run to her yard for no reason just to sleep. She could almost foresee that they would definitely meet again in the future. But the most important thing for her now is to rescue her eldest brother from the Ning Prince's Mansion, and everything else can be put aside for the time being. Rong Jin's temperament is unpredictable, and she cannot be sure whether his appearance will cause trouble to herself.
Youyou sighed. After all, she is still too weak now. Maybe... she should meet her cousin...but, now she finally can live a peaceful life and pull him into these things again. Is it really good?
"Young Master!"
In the backyard of Lengxiang Pavilion, Yu Niang, a purple-clad woman, was preparing spices. A black figure broke in from outside and staggered and almost fell to the ground. Seeing the appearance of the visitor clearly, Yu Niang was startled and hurriedly stepped forward to support the visitor and said anxiously: "Young Master, how are you doing?"
"It's okay!" Rong Jin pushed away Yu Niang's support, frowned slightly and waved his hand.
Yu Niang looked at Rong Jin carefully for a moment before saying, "Young Master is sick again, but he forgot to take medicine again?"
Rong Jin snorted lightly, walked to the chair on the side and sat down, and said lightly: "It's okay. Are the Fourth Brother and the others here?" Yu Niang nodded and said: "Young Master, the Fourth Master and Miss Six have arrived in the capital this morning. If the Young Master does not show up again... I'm afraid it will arouse the Fourth Master's suspicion."
Rong Jin snorted disdainfully, "What can he doubt? Send someone to send him a letter and say that I am sick." Originally, Emperor Yue sent two brothers to celebrate the birthday of Emperor Hua. However, as soon as he left Yue, the two parted ways. Rong Yan had his own plans and did not want Rong Jin to know, and Rong Jin naturally had his own affairs to do. As soon as he left Rong Yan's sight, Rong Jin rushed to the capital of Huaguo, which was a few days earlier than Rong Yan.
Seeing that Rong Jin had made up his mind, Yu Niang had no choice but to accept the order.
Rong Jin sat in a chair, holding his forehead with one hand and pondered. He didn't say anything, and Yu Niang naturally didn't dare to move, so she had to stand on the side and wait. After a long time, she saw Rong Jin raise her head and ask, "As far as you know, what kind of person is Mu Qingyi?"
Yu Niang was shocked and looked up at Rong Jin. She felt relieved when she saw that he had not looked at her and said in a low voice: "How could the young master be interested in Miss Mu Si? There are not many rumors about Miss Four in the capital, and her personality seems to be a little weak, far less intelligent and generous than her cousin Miss Gu's family. However... judging from the situation in Lengxiang Pavilion two days ago, the rumors may be wrong."
Lengxiang Pavilion has only been in the capital for three or four years, but Mu Qingyi has been in the house for three years and almost never goes out. It is not impossible to have any rumors that it is wrong.
"Send someone to check Mu Qingyi carefully, be careful not to be discovered by her." Rong Jin's lips curled a thoughtful smile. The woman... Although she had only seen one time, Rong Jin clearly felt the coldness hidden under the beautiful and quiet appearance. Mu Qingyi was definitely not as harmless as outsiders think, because she had hatred in her heart. Others may not be able to detect such emotions, but they can't hide them from Rong Jin's eyes. Because... he also has...
Yu Niang frowned slightly and said softly: "Young Master, I'm sending someone to check Miss Mu Si, is it too much... Is it a big deal?" They don't have much influence in China. They should not only beware of the Chinese people, but also be careful not to be discovered by the people of the Yue Kingdom's royal family.
Rong Jinfeng's eyes sank, "Do as I say, it's all in detail. Do you think Mu Qingyi is just a lady in the Marquis' Mansion? Don't forget... King Ping and Gu Xiuting are still alive. Who dares to say that they have not made a new comeback?" After Gu Xiuting came from the prime minister, and King Ping... The biological mother of Empress Hua Huangyuan, who died early in the country of China, was the daughter of the Gu family.
When he met Rong Jin's gaze, Yu Niang's heart trembled and said quickly: "Yu Niang understands, Yu Niang will send someone to investigate immediately."
Seeing Yu Niang go out, Rong Jin leaned in the chair and frowned tiredly. The cough that had been forced to be suppressed before rushed up wildly, and a cough suddenly sounded in the room. After the severe cough, Rong Jin pressed down his chest, which was faintly ached due to the violent cough, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. No matter what he wanted to do, no healthy body was his biggest obstacle.
"Ahem... Even without Gu Xiuting and Murong Xi, I still think Mu Qingyi is not simple..." Rong Jin's voice sounded faintly in the empty room.
In a blink of an eye, it was already the time for Princess Gong to hold a banquet. Although the birthday of Emperor Hua was still one month away, the birthday of the Dragon King held in mid-May in China was also famous in various countries. Today, among the countries, the rivers in China are the most vast, with sufficient rain and seaside, so the respect for the Dragon King is not comparable to that of other countries. The birthday of the Dragon King can be said to be one of the most grand festivals in China. This time, all countries came to participate in the birthday of Emperor Hua, which happened to be the same as the birthday of the Dragon King, so they naturally arrived in the capital in advance. Therefore, Princess Gong held a banquet at this time when the birthday of Emperor Hua was still more than a month away.
Early in the morning, Mu Qingyi was urged by the people sent by Mrs. Mu to start preparing. Mu Qingyi had not attended any banquets for several years. Mrs. Mu was naturally afraid that she would lose face if she made a mistake at the banquet. However, Sun was not qualified to attend such a banquet for entertaining Gentile envoys, so Mrs. Mu had to take a few granddaughters to go there in person.
