Chapter 175 – Zhong Xuan’s Belly (Second Shift) (1 / 2)
by Jessie@AFNCCStraight waiting for two days, Yun Fei’s condition does not improve, still unconscious.
Jun Qianhao hadn’t bothered her in these two rare days, and Mu Zi Yan was happy to be quiet.
Zhang Zong came back from the morning court and went straight to the back hall, seeing Mu Zi Yan and Niangzi Lu talking and laughing, he secretly sighed and went up and said quietly, “At the court this morning, the Third Prince asked for a decree to let you enter the Third Prince’s residence.”
“Oh.” Mu Zi Yan didn’t have a color of surprise, but faintly responded, “To do what.”
“He said that strange phenomena have always occurred in the Third Prince’s residence in the past two days, stirring up unrest in the residence, and asked you to enter the residence to take a look.” Zhang Zong went on to say, “If I were to go there, it would appear to be making a big deal out of it.”
“It seems like he’s not dying here.” Mu Zi Yan sneered.
“Smokey ah, why does this Third Prince have to let you into the Third Prince’s Residence,” Zhang Zong asked in disbelief.
“I don’t know.” Mu Zi Yan shook her head, “Could it be that you want me to go head-to-head with Zhong Xuan”
“I don’t think so,” Zhang Zong said as he looked at her.
“Then why,” Niangzi Lu looked at Mu Ziyan suspiciously, “This Third Prince is clearly targeting you, dead set on you.”
“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded and responded, “Indeed.”
“He did so, in the end what is the purpose, really think you can marry you into the house now the third prince’s house can not have your seat, is not to let you hall county princess to do concubines do not” Lv Niangzi cold rebuke, “this three emperor is also too self-conscience.”
Mu Zi Yan laughed lightly, “He’s out of his depth.”
“Are you going to go,” Nyx Lui continued.
“Go.” Mu Zi Yan raised an eyebrow, “Since I’ve asked for the decree, there’s no reason not to go”
“But if you enter the Third Prince’s residence, this reputation” Zhang Zong looked at her worriedly, this is about a woman’s innocence and cannot be ignored.
“I am a commoner, and until the three-year wake is over, Lu Erniang will disappear with her, and this reputation is irrelevant.” Mu Zi Yan said indifferently.
“That’s true.” Lady Lu looked at her, “You, you’ve always had an idea.”
“It seems that the holy decree is almost here.” Mu Zi Yan whispered.
“Oracles.” Zhang Zong said as he looked at Mu Zi Yan.
“Oh, it seems that Elder Zhang has come by decree.” Mu Zi Yan smiled in understanding, then got up, “When will you leave”
“Prepare to get ready and move immediately.” Zhang Zong said as he looked at Mu Zi Yan.
“Good.” Mu Zi Yan smiled and answered, “Since the Third Prince was kind enough to invite me, I wouldn’t have any reason not to go to the residence”
“Yes, the Third Prince should personally come to pick you up.” Zhang Zong’s face sank, obviously knowing what the Third Prince had in mind, he said worriedly, “If the Third Prince later breaks the news that you are Lu Erniang, and you enter the Third Prince’s residence these days, won’t it be evidence for him to ask for a decree to bestow a marriage in the future?”
“He won’t.” Mu Zi Yan said in a low voice, “If he were to speak out at that time, the Emperor would himself suspect his loyalty.”
“Yes.” Zhang Zong then realized, “If he really said that, wouldn’t he be guilty of deceiving the king.”
“Not bad.” Mu Zi Yan smiled and answered, and then she went back to her own house, and did nothing more than change her clothes, and then she went out of the house.
Jun Qianhao was entering the back hall, and seeing that she was ready, he smiled lightly and said, “Is Smokey not curious as to why I had to let you into the mansion”
“We will naturally know when it’s time to know.” Mu Zi Yan spoke indifferently, then she got up and went out of the Beijing Zhaoyin’s government office along with Jun Qian Hao.
Looking up at the carriage in front of her, she turned her eyes to look at him, “Rather well prepared.”
“Please.” Jun Qianhao said with a self-satisfied smile.
Now in the afternoon, many pedestrians coming and going, and Mu Zi Yan will be so dignified on the carriage, followed by the three emperors also followed the inside, this is more than ever caused a lot of people’s speculation, coupled with early in the morning will be arranged to catch the wind of the words of the people, less than half a day, the entire capital will be aware of Lu Erniang with the three emperors to enter the house of the news.
Qi Xuan and the Staffer’s report in the courtroom since the news, and now the two gathered in a place, face bitter, but do not know how to speak, so they drink together to relieve their sorrows.
Mu Zi Yan was sitting inside the carriage, the two of them were sitting opposite each other since, she looked indifferent and did not open her mouth since the beginning.
Seeing her like this, Jun Qianhao hooked his lips in a shallow smile, “Rather calm.”
“What do you want to say,” Mu Zi Yan did not use honorifics, but between the looks of more than a few points of contempt.
Seeing this, Jun Qianhao’s eyes flashed with a flash of ghostly light as he suddenly leaned forward, “Aren’t you worried that I’m going to turn you on this”
“I haven’t reached maturity yet.” Mu Zi Yan said with a raised eyebrow, obviously not believing that Jun Qian Hao would do such a thing, although he had a deep heart, he wouldn’t do such a thing.
Jun Qianhao’s eyes are a little narrow, not phoenix eyes, so long as he smiles, giving people a refined and kind atmosphere, but once the shadowy up, but through an intimidating atmosphere.
She had to admit, if according to the trajectory of the previous life, Jun Qianhao ascended to the throne of his own skills, and also counted as deserved, after all, many of the Prince, he unknowingly in the midst of all the potential dangers have been calculated demolition, the rest will be insignificant, not enough to fight against him.
Only, Mu Zi Yan knew that there was more than one person alive today who could fight against him.
She wasn’t worried about someone replacing Jun Qianhao in the future, but she was worrying about whether Jun Qianhao would have noticed earlier and was waiting for them to surface.
The two of them were so deadlocked, until after a quarter of an hour, he gradually sat down, and then poured a cup of tea and handed it to her.
Mu Zi Yan nonchalantly raised her hand to take it, put it between her nose and sniffed lightly for a few moments, raised her eyes to look at him, “Rainy Front Dragon Well”
“I know that you have always loved this tea, so I specially ordered someone to prepare it.” Jun Qianhao said indifferently.
Undoubtedly, Jun Qianhao had his own way of dealing with women, he knew what a woman needed most, and he would vary from person to person, even checking out her preferences.
She hooked her lips in a light smile, “Since I like it.”
“Looks like I’ve finally done something that you like.” Jun Qianhao said with a light smile.
“Even if you please me, you can never enter my heart.” Mu Zi Yan put down the purple sand teacup and said faintly.
Jun Qianhao, however, was unimpressed, “Sincerity is the key to success, I have this confidence.”
“Don’t you forget, what I said before.” Mu Zi Yan lightly raised her eyebrows before waving her hand and saying, “I won’t change my original intention.”
“Since you want a lifetime of a pair of people, that’s not so difficult” Jun Qianhao eyes staring at the floating tea dense water mist, whispered, “Since then, I only you a person er.”
“Jun Qianhao, don’t you think you’re too thin-skinned “Mu Zi Yan really can’t understand why Jun Qianhao is staring at her and refusing to let goDo you have to wait until you’re defeated to realize that messing with her was his biggest mistake?
Jun Qianhao raised his eyes to look at her, “I don’t know either.”
In fact, he didn’t know how he suddenly became interested in her, at first because her eyes looked like his mother’s, however, these days of contact, her cross-eyed stare at himself, her lack of respect for himself, and her indifference and disdain for himself all became a fatal temptation that attracted him.
Maybe he has seen too many submissive women, now see her like this different, instead of interest, but in his heart, but there is always a voice telling him, absolutely can not give up, is not the previous life, he owes her!
Mu Zi Yan raised her eyebrows, he didn’t know, she knew even less.
But the Jun Qianhao of the previous life had nothing to do with her, and if it hadn’t been for Leng Hanfeng and Zhong Xuan, would the Jun Qianhao of the previous life have been able to claim the title of Emperor in the end?
Her eyes flashed with a flash of ghostly light as she looked straight at Jun Qianhao before saying, “It’s considered a break between you and Side Concubine Zhong”
“En.” Jun Qianhao nodded in response.
“It is a great loss for you to do so.” Mu Zi Yan said very frankly.
“If I were to rely on a woman to climb to the imperial throne, it would be a shame for me as well.” Jun Qianhao didn’t shy away from saying what was on his mind.
Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, but in his previous life, Jun Qian Hao did ascend to the throne because of Zhong Xuan’s power behind him and Leng Hanfeng’s help, could it be that there is something she doesn’t know?
In his previous life, he was a pawn in the hands of Zhong Xuan and Leng Hanfeng, using her to hold the State Duke’s Office in check, and in this life, does Jun Qianhao want to jump away from Leng Hanfeng and personally hold her in check?
Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Jun Qian Hao, one day I will be your enemy.”
“How long will that take,” Jun Qianhao asked, looking straight at her.
“It seems that you have already thought of it.” Mu Zi Yan saw that he answered so calmly, then she knew that he had already thought that she would not accept him, yet he was still so obsessed with pestering her, in the end, whether it was sincere or not, I’m afraid that she was also a bit confused at this moment.
Mu Zi Yan suddenly wanted to go back to the previous life, want to see with their own eyes, after her death, what happened in the Great Amazing Country why it all became so different, and even beyond her control.
The Chu Ye who appeared out of thin air, the Jun Qian Yu who swindled his way to death, and this Jun Qian Hao who was suddenly in hot pursuit of her, all of these were unforeseen, unanticipated accidents that she had not anticipated.
Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed and she was silent for a moment, “In that case, as you wish.”
Jun Qianhao smiled brightly when he saw her answer in this manner, only feeling that such a straightforward Mu Zi Yan was just too adorable.
He knew she wouldn’t give him any hope or chance, but he just wouldn’t die, and he was even more unwilling to give up, so he knew it was desperate, but he still wanted to give it a try.
The carriage stopped, and the Third Imperial Consort stood waiting outside the mansion.
Jun Qianhao looked at her, “I really have something to do with inviting you into the Third Prince’s Mansion.”
“Oh.” Mu Zi Yan faintly answered, and after he got off the carriage, he poked his way out, then landed on the ground.
The Third Prince Consort stepped forward, her face did not have the slightest ripple, but instead she respectfully saluted, “Your Highness.”
“En.” Jun Qian Hao always maintained a faint smile for the Third Prince Consort’s complexion, and that smile appeared to be gentle, but it didn’t reach the low of the eyes, carrying an obvious detachment.
She suddenly remembered Leng Hanfeng, in her previous life she was really ignorant, since she never suspected Leng Hanfeng’s false love for her, so he played in the palm of his hand, thinking about it, her eyes dark, such a man is mostly thin and unsympathetic generation, in this life, touching her, I’m afraid that I will have to suffer.
She secretly pondered, and then she stepped forward and saluted towards the Third Imperial Concubine, “My daughter sees the Third Imperial Concubine.”
“Second Miss Lu doesn’t have to be polite, the guest room has already been prepared, if Second Miss Lu has any grievances, she can speak to this palace as soon as possible.” Third Prince Consort said warmly.
Jun Qianhao, however, spoke at this moment, “She lives in the South Pavilion.”
The third prince’s consort’s eyes flashed a touch of consternation, since it was not expected that Jun Qianhao would let Lu Erniang stay in the South Pavilion, it can be known that, since she joined the government, the South Pavilion is the forbidden place of the third prince’s residence, even she has never been in.
In her heart, it is false to say that she is not jealous, only because, Jun Qianhao has never treated a woman so attentively, even the favored Cui side consort and Zhong side consort, have never been treated like Lu Erniang.
Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes since the third prince consort’s color, turned her eyes to Jun Qian Hao, brows slightly knit, do not know what in the end he is going to do just now in turn let her feel a little uncomfortable, said in a low voice, “Since the third highness has already arranged, how can the folk daughter disobey”
When Jun Qianhao saw Mu Ziyan say this, he understood that she was mocking him for taking matters into his own hands, but he didn’t think so, and said in a low voice, “This palace has asked for the decree to summon Miss Lv Er to come here, since there is something important to do, so how can we slow down Miss Lv Er?”
Mu Zi Yan hung her eyes without saying anything, so she followed Jun Qian Hao to the South Pavilion.
The Third Imperial Consort was not allowed to go, so she walked along with Jun Qian Hao for a while and then returned to her own courtyard.
Mu Zi Yan knew that even if the Third Prince’s Consort was tolerant of others, she must have had a few words for her at this time, and she raised her eyes to look at Jun Qian Hao, “You did it on purpose.”
“If not, how can we catch the evil spirits within this mansion,” Jun Qianhao said indifferently.
Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly, “I somewhat understand what you summoned me here for.”
“Even if I don’t say it, you can still know, it seems like you have a heart-to-heart with me.” Jun Qianhao spoke slowly.
The corner of Mu Zi Yan’s mouth was skewed as she lifted her steps forward and walked straight into the South Pavilion, raising her eyes to survey the furnishings in front of her, her eyes flashed a cold light, this place she had been to before.
Remembering that in her previous life, she seemed to have gone to the manor along with Leng Hanfeng, and had inadvertently gone to an attic within a loft, which was the same as this southern attic, she recalled that last time Jun Qianhao took her to that manor, which seemed to be different from the one that Leng Hanfeng had taken her to in her previous life.
She looked up at him, “Is it true that all your estates have lofts like this within them”
“There are only three, I think.” Jun Qianhao then sat down, and an attendant entered, serving tea before retreating.
Mu Zi Yan sat down gracefully and raised her eyes to survey the surroundings, although it was the same, it was also different, she thought carefully about that attic and then looked at the attic in front of her, full of doubts.
Jun Qianhao looked at her as if she was in deep thought, so he did not disturb her, but sat smilingly across from her and sized her up.
Mu Zi Yan to come back to his senses, and only then figured out the difference, all because of this screen and the paintings hanging on that wall.
She raised her eyes to look at the screen in front of her, and then around the screen to look at the inside hanging on the wall of the ink treasure, carefully thinking about the previous life to break in to see the painting, the woman in it wearing a long goose yellow dress, look at the face of a childish face, just hidden the specific appearance, some dreamy.
And that time Jun Qianhao brought her to go to the attic within that painting woman should be Jun Qianhao late mother consort, that screen embroidered on the orchid, and this place on the screen embroidered on the begonias, the previous life to break into the pavilion within the screen embroidered on the screen is the plum blossom.
Her eyes flashed with doubt, “You said just now that there are three lofts, what about the third”
“The third place, in the western suburb.” Jun Qianhao looked at Mu Zi Yan and said, “But I rarely go there.”
“Oh.” Mu Zi Yan hung her eyes in silence for a moment, “What is the difference between that screen up there and the painting hanging on the wall”
“The screen and painting have not been put up yet.” Jun Qianhao said as he looked at Mu Zi Yan.
“Did not put up” Mu Zi Yan was silent for a moment, but felt strange, she carefully thought about when she unintentionally went forward at that time, it should be the third year after she and Leng Hanfeng got married, there are still five years from now, so it is like this.
However, this matter is in her heart stored doubts, she always felt that suddenly saw the attic in front of her remembered the previous life undoubtedly broke into the attic, which must have some connection, after all, the last time Jun Qianhao took her to go to the manor, she saw that the attic did not remember.
When Jun Qianhao saw her staring at the painting, he stepped forward and said, “I made this painting three years ago.”
“Oh.” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at, is a beautiful landscape painting, inside a few more points of the land of boldness, unrestrained, reflecting the Jun Qian Hao bones of boldness and ambition.
She turned her eyes on him, “No wonder you don’t let outsiders in.”
“Since this attic was built, you are the first to come in.” Jun Qianhao said as he looked at her.
“I know.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and replied, for the saying that this attic was a forbidden place, Mu Zi Yan was clear about it, even in her previous life, when Zhong Xuan was extremely favored, Jun Qian Hao did not allow Zhong Xuan to enter inside the attic.
Mu Zi Yan never understood, in the end, Jun Qian Hao is a kind of person, the previous life of him is not also hidden many unknown secrets Otherwise, why this life, there will be so many variables.
Jun Qianhao laughed lowly, “It seems that you know more or less about me as well.”
“Knowing the enemy and knowing yourself is never a danger in a hundred battles.” Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly, “If you want to defeat your opponent, it is self-evident that you need to know your opponent first.”
“It’s not bad that you see me as a rival.” Jun Qianhao had seldom been so honest with anyone, and now, on the contrary, he had removed a trace of his defenses.
Mu Zi Yan is very clear in this era of the rules of the game, compared to the world she saw that world is different, here, everywhere manifested the respect and inferiority of power, she can not be too much to show their own strong, not to mention all their ability to be exposed, she can be so calmly circling with the opponent, but can not be blatantly at this time with the right to him to confront.
Until she had enough power to fight back, she had to curb her edge and nurture her strength.
She smiled lightly, “Where do I rest?”
“There are guest rooms upstairs.” Jun Qianhao continued.
“Oh.” Mu Zi Yan nodded slightly, got up and went up to the second floor, there were not many rooms, but they were very elegant, the style was different.
“How,” Jun Qianhao slowly followed, and within this attic, there was conversely no distinction between men and women, nor much restraint.
Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at him, “Maybe this is the only place you can be your true self.”
“En.” Jun Qianhao nodded, “This place is my pure land.”
Mu Zi Yan along the long corridor to the innermost house, after pushing open the door, I saw the inside of a bed, a square couch, the four treasures are complete, hanging on the wall of a few very interesting ink, not like the luxury of the palace in the distance bedchamber, like a very secluded outside the mountains of the bamboo house.
Mu Zi Yan line to the window, pushed open the window side to see a blue lake in front of the sky, she blinked, and only then remembered that the third prince’s residence is not far away from a clear lake, no wonder.
Jun Qianhao did not miss all of Mu Zi Yan’s expressions, standing aside since, waiting for her to turn her eyes, “How”
“The view is wide open and the scenery is exquisite.” Mu Zi Yan leaned against the straight lattice and stretched her hand out, a fallen leaf happened to float with the wind, she pinched the leaf and looked at it with her eyes downcast.
A breeze came, curling up her soft green silk, the hem of her skirt fluttered with the wind, and her eyes penetrated with a bland yet brimming splendor, mesmerizing people.
Jun Qianhao quietly stood aside, who said that all women are soft and charming and delicate, the woman in front of me is elegant and elegant, and there is some kind of cleanliness and elegance, but it is not elegant.
Mu Zi Yan spread out her palm, the fallen leaves went with the wind, she turned her eyes just in time to bump into Jun Qian Hao’s infatuated eyes, she raised her eyebrows and crossed over to him, so she walked outside.
Jun Qianhao knew that he had lost his temper and turned around to follow him, and the two of them entered the hall downstairs together without any further communication.
