    Mu Zi Yan looked at herself inside the bronze mirror, flowing cloud hair bun, inserting light-colored magnolia hairpin, embellished with light blue gemstone bead flower, wearing blue gauze coat, light-colored long skirt, the whole person is serene and elegant, permeated with light orchid atmosphere.

    “Smokey likes it,” Xuanyuan Ye asked in a low voice.

    “En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded and responded, “Very good.”

    Xuanyuan Ye smiled lightly, “Smokey likes it, and it’s not a waste of the time I’ve spent learning.”

    Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at him, “You sit.”

    “En,” Regulus looked at her with downcast eyes.

    “You pulled my hair back and combed it for me, so I should bind your hair for you.” Mu Zi Yan said with a smile.

    “Good.” Xuanyuan Ye’s narrow eyes overflowed with favor, looking a little excited as he then sat down.

    Then looked at her from his hands took the comb, gently combed his ink hair smooth, very familiar with the hair bunch up, and then fixed with a gold wire wrapped dragon hair crown, looking down at his body with the snow-white robes, she said in a low voice, “this day but to go to the morning court to go.”

    “En.” Xuanyuan Ye nodded in response.

    Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to Yun Xiang, “Go and bring the court dress.”

    “Yes.” Yunxiang answered and then retreated.

    Not long after, Yunxiang and Bi Yun came with their court dresses, she personally put them on for him, buttoned the jade buckle at her waist, and raised her eyes to look at him, “It’s not like I’ve ever seen you like this before.”

    Xuanyuan Ye hooked his lips and smiled lightly, his lips were more colorful than peach blossoms by a few points, his magnificent features were overflowing with soft light, converging the hostility around his body, and in front of her, he always maintained a consistent warm breath.

    Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes and gazed at him, the corners of her mouth hooked in a faint light smile, so she and he started over?

    She was silent for a moment and whispered, “When will you be back today”

    “Be back before noon.” Xuanyuan Ye smiled back.

    “I’ll wait for you to have lunch.” Mu Zi Yan answered with a smile.

    “Good.” Xuanyuan Ye nodded his head in response, and then he turned to leave.

    Mu Zi Yan stood outside the great hall and watched him leave, her heart gradually going far away with him at this moment.

    She lowered her eyes and looked at her own reflection, staring blankly for a long time before she came back to her senses, turning her eyes to look at Yunxiang and Bi Yun, and then said, “Your Highness has been using light food for a long time, let the kitchen prepare some medicinal meals.”

    “Yes.” Rue Xiang answered, and then went to order it herself.

    Mu Zi Yan took a deep breath and turned around to go back to her dorm room.

    “Eldest Miss, you and His Highness,” Bi Yun asked in a low voice as she came forward, “have made up.”

    Mu Zi Yan faintly raised her eyebrows, “Reconciliation”

    “Eldest Miss, it was the slave girl who was wrong.” Bi Yun answered with downcast eyes.

    Mu Zi Yan smiled lightly, “Just want to take a step forward.”

    “Eldest Miss, His Highness is afraid that no one in this Northern Green Country knows about your heart.” Bi Yun whispered back.

    Mu Zi Yan hooked her lips and smiled faintly, picking up the tea on the side, sipping lightly, and then said, “Yes, how is it at Your Highness’s place”

    “Eldest Miss, it’s a bit difficult for news to get out from the palace these days.” Bi Yun whispered to.

    “En.” Mu Zi Yan faintly responded, “It seems that people have not been sent in yet.”

    “Wei Ran sees the Crown Princess.” Wei Ran entered at this time and bowed respectfully.

    Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at him and said in a warm voice, “What is it that Mr. Wei has to do”

    “This is what His Highness asked Wei Ran to give to the Crown Princess.” Wei Ran said and then handed her a token, and then said, “This is a token to enter the palace, as long as you have this token, the Crown Princess can enter and leave the palace at will.”

    “En.” Mu Zi Yan raised her hand to receive it, and after carefully scrutinizing it, she raised her eyes to look at him, “Where are the people in this palace”

    “But anyone who sees this token is at the disposal of the Crown Princess.” Wei Ran continued, “This is today’s news from the palace.”

    “En.” Mu Zi Yan took the secret letter from Wei Ran’s hands, and after reading it, she said in a low voice, “Thank you, Mr. Wei.”

    “If the Crown Princess has no orders, Wei Ran will retire.” Wei Ran said with a respectful influence and then retreated.

    Yunxiang entered at this moment and said with downcast eyes, “Eldest Miss, it has already been ordered.”

    “En.” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at her, “Have the people in the palace been arranged?”

    “It’s harder, but I’ve barely arranged a few.” Rue whispered.

    “Good.” Mu Zi Yan then put the secret letter down, “Your Highness that place thought to know the reason for the death of the bottle in the palace of Lady Ren, now is secretly investigating this matter, you and send people to keep an eye on.”

    “Yes.” Yun Xiang raised her eyes to look at her, “Eldest Miss, this Noble Consort is trying to disadvantage you”

    “This is sooner or later.” Mu Zi Yan pondered for a moment, “The eldest prince has no heart, he himself has long coveted the throne, the second prince is now in the heart of the Holy Spirit, the prestige is very high, the other princes are now also in their own camps, the situation of this Northern Qing country is also not stable ah.”

    “Eldest Miss, there has not been any abnormality at Great Yan’s place these past few days.” Yunxiang replied with downcast eyes.

    “Now since there will not be any movement, Jun Qian Hao is now pacifying the people while consolidating the throne with his troops, he will not easily send out his troops again, and the emperor is also the same here, in a short period of time, the Great Amazing will not fight.” Mu Zi Yan pondered for a moment, “It just so happens that it also gives me plenty of time.”

    Yun Xiang asked in confusion, “Eldest Miss, are you going to do it”

    “En.” Mu Zi Yan slightly lowered her eyes, “But today is not the time.”

    “Eldest Miss, these few days in Kyoto is also not peaceful.” Yunxiang said in a low voice, “His Highness rarely goes to the court, this day is also a rare occasion, these two days His Highness is far away, but it is not known what he went to do”

    “What can be found out” Mu Zi Yan knew that Xuanyuan Ye would not tell her this, and she could only find out on her own.

    “No.” Rue whispered back.

    “Keep checking.” Mu Zi Yan said in a cold voice.

    “Yes.” Yunxiang answered and then spoke, “Eldest Miss, there is also quite a bit of dissatisfaction towards you in this courtroom.”

    “No.

    Full.”

    “Dissatisfied,” Mu Zi Yan hooked her lips and smiled coldly, “dissatisfied and so on.”

    “Eldest Miss, today’s Emperor has a meticulous mind, no less than the Emperor of the Great Yan, but the Emperor has been a bit mentally weak in recent years, and His Highness has been ignoring the imperial government, which is why the Second Prince was allowed to participate in the imperial government, and over time, the Second Prince has built up a prestige in the court, and today’s prestige is indeed higher than His Highness’s.” Yunxiang said in a low voice.

    “You can’t look at the surface of many things.” Mu Zi Yan said faintly.

    “Yes.” Yunxiang answered with downcast eyes and then spoke, “Eldest Miss, this Second Imperial Consort is not a simple one either.”

    “Second Imperial Concubine,” Mu Zi Yan mused for a moment and said in a low voice, “I remember that Second Imperial Concubine comes from a prestigious family in Bei Qing.”

    “Exactly.” Rue Xiang whispered, “The Topaz.”

    “Oh.” Mu Zi Yan nodded slightly, “It seems that the second prince is looking for a strong backing for himself ah, I heard that this Tuoba clan is the one that owns 40% of the Northern Qing Country’s military strength.”

    “Precisely.” Yunxiang said and handed her the secret letter, “Eldest Miss, this is the Second Imperial Consort’s dossier.”

    “En.” Mu Zi Yan raised her hand to receive it, and after reading it, her eyes flashed with a ghostly light, “This Second Prince Consort is interesting.”

    “Eldest Miss, the Second Imperial Concubine is extremely submissive to the Second Prince, and is also a mindful one.” Yunxiang whispered back.

    Mu Zi Yan was silent for a long time, “Let’s wait and see what happens.”

    “Yes.” Rue Xiang answered with downcast eyes.

    After noon, Xuanyuan Ye since rushed back, in the past the empty East Palace, now because of Mu Zi Yan, and become cozy, his heart also with the fixed, as long as the thought that she will be in the East Palace waiting for him, he will rejoice.

    To enter the palace, Mu Zi Yan like to lean against the window of the soft couch next to the book, at this time to see the time is still early, did not go forward to meet him.

    Xuanyuan Ye is also half an hour early back, and so he rushed into the room, he saw her lying by the window, holding a scroll, a strand of green silk through the window of the warmth of the sun exudes a different flavor, her eyes low through the faint warmth, shrouded in the whole body, just a glance, will be able to melt all things in the world.

    His heart also moved with it, his footsteps lightly up, carefully sat down, and in the process, he took her into his arms from behind himself, his jaws against the nape of her neck, gently inhaling the unique fragrance emanating from her body, his mind and soul also swirled for it, only after thinking for a long time, he opened his mouth and said, “Smokey, I miss you so much.”

    Mu Zi Yan leaned into his arms and smiled lightly, “It’s only been a few hours.”

    “I don’t know, it’s just that I want it so much.” Xuanyuan Ye had been thinking about it for twelve whole years, all the time.

    Mu Zi Yan put the scroll aside, looking for a comfortable position to lean, half squinting his eyes, between the nose entangled in his body exudes a light breath, that is an unspoken lightness, as if a wisp of breeze, but also seems to be a ray of warm sunshine into the heart, only to feel that she seems to be wrapped up in his full of love, so that she is warm.

    The two were so snuggled up, did not have too many words, there is no extra action, but so leaning against each other, as if they have all the world.

    She pondered for a moment and opened her eyes to look at him, “But it’s time for lunch”

    “I want to hold you for a while longer.” Xuanyuan Ye’s voice always carried a calmness that emanated through his bones, unhurried and unhurried, as if the ethereal sound drifting from the distant mountains, but with his unique magnetism, seemingly able to sensitize all things in general.

    Mu Zi Yan is thinking, how he has such a voice even without looking at the appearance, just listening to this voice, can make people move, deep into it, such a person, when it is really a scourge ah.

    Mu Zi Yan couldn’t help but smile, did she count herself as doing the people a favor?

    Xuanyuan Ye heard her suddenly let out a delightful laugh, his broad chest pressed against her back, his hands encircled her, taking her into his arms while she leaned back like a bird, at this moment, she did not have to walk alone by herself, but she had him to hold her forward.

    “What’s Smokey laughing at,” Xuanyuan Ye asked with a light smile.

    “Laughing at you.” Mu Zi Yan pondered for a long time, then said, “I’ll call you Your Highness Husband in the future or something.”

    “I prefer you to call me Senior Uncle.” Xuanyuan Ye said as he approached her ear.

    The corner of Mu Zi Yan’s mouth twitched, “You’re Xuanyuan Ye.”

    “Then Ye, call me Ye.” Xuanyuan Ye’s lips carried the slightest hint of warmth, but inadvertently crossed between her ears, making her only feel as if her body was enveloped by his breath, permeated with an ambiguous and unclear aura.

    She moved away slightly, slightly raised her eyes to his eyes curved into the eyes, as if a pool of water, clear to the bottom, but also through the slightest trace of mystery, only now his eyes low overflowed with tenderness, but only to her alone.

    Mu Zi Yan did not know why, her hands unnaturally wrapped around his neck, and after a moment of silence, she slowly approached until the tips of their noses were pressed against each other, and it seemed that they were all able to stick together between their lips, and she just stared at him in this way, blinking her eyes, and then stepping backward, letting go of his neck, and going down to the soft couch.

    Xuanyuan Ye has some unstable breath, seeing her so naughty, but also just spoiled a smile, fingers gently hooked, the thin belt between her waist will be loosened half, Mu Zi Yan lowered his eyes to see, hastily tied, but his body shape is swaying, a spinning, and landed in his arms.

    His eyes flashed with a unique flavor, his wide sleeve robe covered her body, he was already tall, and with a slight sidestep, he trapped her between the soft couch and his chest.

    Mu Zi Yan snorted coldly and tilted her head to look at him, “No fooling around.”

    “Nonsense,” Xuanyuan Ye lifted his hand, his slender jade-like fingers with well-defined bones, his index finger slightly curved up and tapped her on her bare forehead, “Smokey is getting more and more naughty.”

    Mu Zi Yan laughed lightly, “And I’m not afraid of knocking me silly.”

    “I can’t afford to give up.” Xuanyuan Ye was attentive, but when he saw her frowning, he was worried that his force was still a bit heavy, and at the moment his palm was already over her forehead, gently rubbing it.

    His palm was warm.

    The palm of her hand was very warm and generous, her sight was half covered by her palm, through the gap of her fingers, the sunlight just hit his handsome and peerless face, the corners of his mouth were holding a gentle smile, the lips were more delicate than a woman’s for a few minutes, just looking at it like this, she couldn’t help but to want to

    When Mu Zi Yan thought so, she hastily withdrew her eyes and secretly sighed, almost being compelled.

    She took a deep breath and left his arms, so she got off the soft couch, “Off to lunch.”

    “Good.” Xuanyuan Ye answered with a smile, but held her hand and refused to let her leave first.

    When he got up, he marched to her front, looked down at the thin, half-loose belt around her waist, lifted his fingers to tie it familiarly, and lifted his eyes to gently stroke the broken hair in front of her forehead over her ears before nodding his head in satisfaction, “Let’s go.”

    Mu Zi Yan froze slightly and raised her eyes to gaze at him, panicking for a moment.

    The two of them went out of the inner room and entered the flower hall not far away, Yunxiang had already ordered people to set up the meal, and then waited at one side.

    Mu Zi Yan held the jade chopsticks in her hand and put the dishes on his plate, Xuanyuan Ye also put the dishes on her plate, the two of them looked at the dishes in the plate with their eyes downcast and raised their eyes to look at each other and smiled.

    Lunch is very cozy, each other through a strong warmth, this should be her life, should be the life she wants.

    When the two had lunch, they sat together in the courtyard at the head of the pavilion to consume food, a side of tea, snacks, she was a little lazy leaning against the carving rail, raised her eyes to look at the distant scenery, the corner of her mouth hooked up a faint smile, turned her eyes to look at him, “you have nothing to do today”

    “En.” Xuanyuan Ye put down the tea in his hand and smiled faintly, “Yes.”

    “Then go about your business.” Mu Zi Yan, however, felt that he was the most idle prince.

    Xuanyuan Ye nodded and responded, “I’m in the middle of something.”

    Mu Zi Yan was slightly stunned, but understood the implication of his words, the thing he was busy with today was to accompany her.

    She got up and marched to sit in front of him, one hand propped up her jaw, one hand playing with the jade pendant at his waist, pondering for a long time before speaking, “Are you really alright”

    “There.” Xuanyuan leaned forward, also mirroring her as she propped her jaw with her hand, her fingertips wrapping around a strand of her green silk, the black and white outlining a different flavor.

    Mu Zi Yan smiled lightly, only to feel that happiness sometimes comes too fast, so that she always feels a little unreal, such a plain day, more so that she feels insubstantial.

    The two of them will so look at each other, straight until the breath between each other more and more sunken, a wisp of breeze blew into, which dispersed a trace of lingering breath, she even sat down, seems to think of something, whispered, “I remember that you once always like to unauthorized intrusion into my house, and then just sit like this for a long time.”

    “It was a luxury to be able to look at you one more time back then.” Xuanyuan Ye remembered the past, but felt that it was all worth it, he was alive, she was by his side, and that was enough.

    Mu Zi Yan lightly coughed a few times, “Things in the court”

    “Smoke wants to intervene” Xuanyuan Ye did not overbearingly say, these to me will be good, you just let me well hurt is, but inquired about her mind, just because, he understood her, she is never dependent on any man and live woman, she is just her, that’s all.

    Mu Zi Yan smiled lightly and said, “It’s not meddling, it’s just that I feel that you and I are of one mind and will solve the trouble faster.”

    “Father’s mind, after all, is hard to gauge, and he can’t say what kind of feelings he has for me.” Mu Zi Yan looked at her and said.

    “Then in that case, Mother and the late Empress Xian of Great Yan were sisters” Mu Zi Yan asked in a low voice.

    “En.” Xuanyuan Ye nodded his head and responded, “Empress Xian is my aunt and mother’s twin sister.”

    “Oh.” Mu Zi Yan responded in a low voice, “So that’s how it is.”

    “Smokey, can you sense anything,” Xuanyuan Ye saw her raise her eyebrows knowingly, and knew that she should have a plan in mind.

    Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at him and said in a low voice, “It’s nothing, I was just thinking that since Empress Xian is a sister to Mother, she’s from the Northern Qing Dynasty, so why would she marry in the Great Yan”

    “Mother is not from the Northern Qing Country.” Xuanyuan Ye looked at her and said, “Smokey, you may not know that even I still don’t know exactly where Mother Mother comes from.”

    Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes and looked at him, “But a country’s queen, how can it be”

    “Therefore, Father was already cold to me, but I don’t know why Father wanted to marry Mother in the first place.” Xuanyuan Ye looked at her and said, “I traveled to Great Amazing to find out about this matter as well, but it was to no avail.”

    When Mu Zi Yan saw Xuanyuan Ye say so, she knew that things here were more complicated than they thought, she really couldn’t figure out what had happened to her after she went out in her previous life

    And where does Xuanyuan Ye go from here?

    Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at him and said in a low voice, “Let’s settle the matter at hand first.”

    “En.” Xuanyuan Ye held her hand and gently rubbed it, “Smokey, with you here, I’m not afraid of anything.”

    Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly, “Shouldn’t I say this?”

    “I know that even if I’m not here, you won’t be afraid.” Xuanyuan Ye in front of her, always a little bit of suffering, perhaps because of these years of waiting and torture, so that he wandered on the edge of life and death, so it will bring a few points of gloom.

    Mu Zi Yan sighed, “Some things can change.”

    “Is Smokey afraid of losing me” Xuanyuan Ye asked softly, although these words were childish, he felt that he would never be able to mature in the face of her.

    Mu Zi Yan nodded and responded, “Will.”

    Xuanyuan Ye bloomed a flash of eye-catching and gorgeous smile, such a smile, since it was a moment of splendor.
