The Aloof Prince Pampers His Wild First Rate Consort

The Aloof Prince Chapter 33 - Each Takes What He Needs

Mu Yunjin upon seeing her, she sneered, in a tiny voice she said to Chu Li.

“You see, my mother is truly skilled, in a short while she was able to guess to go to the couch to look.”

Mu Yunjin then saw Su Biqing pick up her pillow and discovered that it is empty. Su Biqing crazily lift the sheets off.

“We should go.”

Mu Yunjin said towards Chu Li.

“Good.”

.........

Inside the Ming Xiang Teahouse. Mu Yunjin drank three cups of water and then took out the bag she found on her bedroom, and placed it on top of the table. She fiddled with the dagger.

“Your mother is pressing for your life?”

Chu Li sipped his tea while his eyes rested on Mu Yunjin`s body as he asked.

“I think so.”

Mu Yunjin lifted the corner of her lips as she smiled, her tone mild and gentle.

Chu Li frowned.

“How did you know ahead of time?”

“Who permit them to do the same tricks many times, besides they are also old fashioned tricks.”

Mu Yunjin said with disdain. Listening to Mu Yunjin`s statement, Chu Li mildly smiled as he looked at Mu Yunjin, he secretly thought that maybe it is due to this that she became a sly little fox. Really invulnerable.

“I`ll give you the thirty thousand gold banknotes.”

After sitting for a while, Chu Li took out the banknotes and placed them on the table. Mu Yunjin looked at the bank notes, and paused for a moment before lifting her eyes to look at Chu Li.

“Sixth Prince, there is one thing I do not understand.”

“What?”

Chu Li`s voice is void of emotion.

“You and I have no grievances nor hatred, why do you insist to marry me?”

Mu Yunjin raised this matter, her face a little downcast.

“Keke cough--”

Chu Li did not reply to Mu Yunjin, instead of hearing Chu Li`s voice it was the sound of Ding Xian cough as he choked on water. Mu Yunjin and Chu Li as if in a tacit understanding they both looked at Ding Xian in a bad mood.

“Oh, right! I still have to feed the horse some rations and fodder, I will go first.”

Ding Xian then quickly laid down his teacup and ran out of the private room. Once Ding Xian left, the inside of the room returned to silence. Chu Li then looked at Mu Yunjin and calmly said.

“Have you thought that if you marry this prince, you may be able to break away from the Xiang Fu, and it is not necessarily a bad thing.”

“Still won`t I step into the Huang Zi Fu abyss?”

Mu Yunjin muttered. Chu Li`s eyes suddenly turned gloomy, followed by a very shallow smile.

“Do you really think that this prince really want to marry you?”

Chu Li then softly added.

“This marriage is actually a business deal, you and I will merely be each taking what he needs and nothing more.”

Mu Yunjin was startled. Each takes what he needs? She looked distracted and then thought of a person.

“You will marry me in order to avoid Qin Mu Yue?”

“No, I do not want to have any relationship with the Qin family.”

Chu Li slowly brought up the Qin family but his eyes had difficulty covering up his loathe. Mu Yunjin heard him and her heart a little doubtful, the Qin Family is an aristocratic family that has ma.s.sive military power. If Chu Li is to marry Qin Mu Yue then with the Qin family`s support his future to ascend to the t.i.tle of the Emperor will be enormously aided. But just now it appears that there is a very big hostility to the point of being disdained? Mu Yunjin dismissed all her thoughts, she reached out to push back the banknotes on the table and said to Chu Li.

“I will leave my Jade Ornament for you to take care of, if there comes a day I will need it, I will come again to discuss it.”

Mu Yunjin paused to look at Chu Li, and she added.

“Don`t be angry, this Jade ornament is related to my past, ans it is extremely important to me.”

Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin, his eyes conceal deep meaning but nevertheless he nodded. Seeing that Chu Li and Mu Yunjin had reached a common understanding. Mu Yunjin looked at Chu Li and she suddenly felt that he is nice to look at. After a period of time she suddenly recalled Zi Xiang is still in Ascending Flower Pavilion, she looked at the time and got up to leave.

“I will return first to the Residence, I still do not know what annoying thing is waiting for me.”,

Mu Yunjin said. Chu Li heard her and indifferently a.s.sent. Mu Yunjin walked away from the teahouse, inside Chu Li stood at the second floor window looking at Mu Yunjin`s departing figure.

“Ding Xian....”

.........

By the time Mu Yunjin returned to the Xiang Fu, she saw that the corpse of the black clothed man and the cat has been removed from the front hall. She walked over to see Justice Officer Chen Pu and Mu Xiang who was having a conversation.

“Xiang Ye, Xia Guan had searched the Fu from inside out again but we did not discover anything inappropriate.”

Chen Pu said filled with apology. Mu Xiang nodded and sighed.

“Chen daren do not blame yourself, it may be a.s.sumed that the murderer is extremely cunning and did not leave any trace.”

When this words dropped, Mu Yunjin already entered the door. Advancing from the door, Mu Yunjin glimpsed Su Biqing, and Mu Lingzhu sitting at one side their mood a little gloomy, these two looked at Mu Yunjin`s figure, with a complicated look.

“How about finding out the reason why they were there?”

Mu Yunjin walked towards Chen Pu. Chen Pu bowed to Mu Yunjin before talking.

“Third Miss, inside the Listening Flower Pavilion, those gift boxes were all dyed with highly toxic poison, that cat probably run to Listening Flower Pavilion, and was inattentively poisoned and died.”

“Oh? is that so?”

Mu Yunjin`s raised an eyebrow as she looked towards Su Biqing.

“Those gift boxes are what mother a.s.signed her people to send to my Listening Flower Pavilion after receiving them they are obstructing my path to my bedroom, that is why I went to Ascending Flower Pavilion to stay.”

Listening to Mu Yunjin, they all looked at Su Biqing. Su Biqing opened her mouth to talk but Aunt Li on the side took the lead to talk.

“Third Miss, this words are shedding doubt towards Furen, Let this old slave speak, these gift boxes are blocking the path for the Third Miss, then why did you not look for people to tidy up the place instead you went to the empty Ascending Flower Pavilion?”

Aunt Li`s words let Su Biqing`s originally strained face relax a little.

“Aunt Li, do not talk rubbish in front of an outsider, My status in this Xiang Fu which among you do not understand? I, from young, am forbidden to go out of Ascending Flower Pavilion, Zi Xiang is the only servant waiting on me. In this Fu including the servants, Which person does not have their faces filled with disdain and looking down on me? Although later I moved into Listening Flower Pavilion, but I did not see Father a.s.signing people to serve me, then who do I find to help tidy up my Listening Flower Pavilion, will they even listen to me?”

When Mu Yunjin stopped talking, Aunt Li was speechless and bend her head down as she glanced towards Su Biqing.

“Well, this matter has already ended, saying things now is useless, today this matter has given us a fright, everyone should go back and rest.”

Su Biqing slightly sighed as she waved at everyone and prepared to get up and leave. How could Mu Yunjin let Su Biqing go that easily, she hooked up her lips, and looked towards Chen Pu.

“Since on top those gift boxes were dyed with highly toxic poison, Chen Daren, it would be better to a.s.sign people to examine the poison, go to major pharmacies and medical halls to inquire whether someone has purchased this poison or the ingredients for this poison.”

“As for the black clothed man, there is still his face, Chen daren can find someone to draw a portrait of this person and post it on the street, announcing that those who will provide clues will be rewarded!”

Mu Yunjin actually made Mu Xiang cast her a rare look of praise. Indeed, this sudden events in his Fu happened and he did not discover those people behind it will not let his heart feel relieved. Mu Yunjin`s method is very good.

“Chen daren, do it according to Yunjin`s suggestion.”

Mu Xiang turned to look at Chen Pu. Chen Pu nodded, he bent towards Mu Xiang and bowed in ceremony.

“Then, this matter should not be delayed, Xia Guan will take my leave first.”

“Okay, this old man will send you out.”

Mu Xiang immediately followed Chen Pu towards the door of the Fu. Inside the front hall, Su Biqing and Mu Lingzhu remained. Mu Yunjin glanced at the mother and daughter pair, and pop up a laugh, her face obviously rejoicing on their misfortune.

“To crush one`s own foot while trying to maneuver a rock, I did not understand this sentence before, but today, thanks to mother and mei mei for demonstrating it so well.”

Then Mu Yunjin started to leave, walking a few steps, then she glanced back to look at the two people sitting quietly.

“Chen daren, still have not found any of your tricks, you should probably think of your countermeasures otherwise even the G.o.ds will not be able to protect you.”

.........

Walking in the gardens, Mu Yunjin crossed her arms and said.

“Come out!”

After a moment, a shadow fell from the sky, standing in front of Mu Yunjin.

“My Qinggong is very good, it is not easy for an average man to sense my presence, how could the Third Miss possibly know?”

“Didn`t you follow His Highness home, what are you doing here?”

Mu Yunjin frowned as he looked at Ding Xian. When Ding Xian heard her, he mischievously laughed.

“I am His Highness` bodyguard. What explanation is needed for me appearing here?”

“Chu Li made you come?”

Mu Yunjin asked.

“His Highness was worried Third Miss would be handled poorly in the Fu, so he sent me to look after the Third Miss, who would have thought that the Third Miss is so brilliant that I do not need to appear.”

Ding Xian said with a crafty smile. Ding Xian made Mu Yunjin flabbergasted before opening her mouth to speak.

“Chu Li is this kind?”

“You must not label His Highness, he might be usually cold but he is good towards Third Miss, if you marry His Highness surely you will not suffer any losses.”

Ding Xian spoke beaming. Speaking of this, Mu Yunjin held out her hand as if to strike.

“Talking about a weak point, if it were not for you telling me about the Bird blindness, I would not have to marry Chu Li.”

Ding Xian distractedly scratched his head. Listening to Mu Yunjin`s unreasonable logic somewhat feeling wronged he opened his mouth to speak.

“That, I did not tell you to bring out the matter in front of His Highness`s face ah...”

Mu Yunjin moved forward then after a while looked at Ding Xian and said.

“Let`s go.”

“Third Miss have some instruction?”

“You will help me secretly watch Su Biqing and Mu Lingzhu. I want them to throw a big somersault.”

Mu Yunjin hooked up a smile, her eyes full of mischief. Ding Xian is stumped for words.

“But His Highness....”

“It is not yet dark, What is the problem with leaving Chu Li for a short while besides, didn`t you say that his martial arts is above you?”

Hi again~

Can I have a gorgeous hunk fall down from the sky too... hahahaha Ding Xian always crack me up.. I am always antic.i.p.ating Ding Xian`s appearance in the chapters more than Chu Li. He is good at building Chu li`s image to Mu Yunjin. And Chu Li will be alone for a while, I wonder what will happen.

They really needed Mu Yunjin to tell them what to do.... Oh well...
