Chapter 13: Friends
But Mu Ranyue was a little worried, she knew that although she didn't mean it just now, but in this era, that kind of behavior just now was already considered inappropriate, so would he think that he was a frivolous woman?
No, she must explain it well, and she must not let herself leave a bad impression in his heart.
"Actually, I ...... just now" Mu Ranyue wanted to explain, but Ye Zichen interrupted her: "The princess doesn't have to explain, and the princess didn't mean to come." It's just that I don't like people to be too close on weekdays, and I just threw the princess away, and it was indeed me who was reckless, and asked the princess to take care of it. ”
Mu Ranyue didn't seem to understand the meaning of his words, and said, "Wow, it's the first time I've heard you say so much." "It seems that I will have to contact him more in the future, so that he can talk more.
Ye Zichen had a black line, very speechless, daring to say this, just to show her that he is also a talker?
Ye Zichen didn't want to say more, talking to her was like playing the piano to the cow. Then his eyes were slightly closed, and he leaned against the car window and pretended to sleep. He really didn't understand, how could this pampered woman in the boudoir be so bold, he could still bear it last time, but this time she was really a little presumptuous.
He was a little suspicious that the Mu Ranyue in front of him was true or fake, he remembered that what he found out was that Murong He's upbringing of Mu Ranyue was completely according to everyone's beautiful appearance, but it was more than the average woman who learned more, and Murong He was also very strict with her. How could it be such a bold temperament, without the reserve of being a boudoir woman at all.
However, Mu Ranyue didn't want to be so quiet, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, you can be regarded as saving me twice, although this time it is only indirect." Say, how do you want this princess to repay? ”
"Not necessarily." Ye Zichen's thin lips opened slightly. In fact, he wanted to tell her to shut up now, but he couldn't say it after all.
"How? Although I, Mu Ranyue, am just a little woman, I also know the truth of being a man and knowing how to repay kindness. If the adults don't let Dye Yue return, Dye Yue will be very uneasy in her heart. Mu Ranyue's eyebrows frowned slightly.
"Then the princess can do whatever she wants."
"Well, I think the adults are in a high position, and there is nothing that this palace wants to help. However, the adult is already over the age of the weak crown, and there is no woman around to serve him, so it is better for me to ask my father to marry a wife for the adult, so that the adult will not be so lonely. What do adults think? Mu Ranyue said with a smile.
She wanted to know what kind of woman this rumored night phase who was not close to women at all liked.
"I don't like it." Ye Zichen directly rejected Mu Ranyue's proposal, and there were no extra words.
"Don't like it? Is it that all women don't like it, or is it just that certain types of women don't like it? Mu Ranyue asked.
"The prime minister has not been married for many years, why does the princess think so?" Ye Zichen indirectly expressed his meaning to Mu Ranyue, he didn't like all the women.
"I guess you haven't met the right one yet. I don't know, a type like me, do adults like it? And I thought about it, it's also a good way to repay each other. Mu Ranyue's words were very bold, but she was just joking with him.
Although she likes Ye Zichen now, she will not marry him until Ye Zichen really likes her. Mu Ranyue is a person who is both emotional but not lacking in rationality, and she understands that wishful thinking marriage will never be perfect.
When Ye Zichen heard this, he opened his eyes suddenly, his brows furrowed slightly, and he looked at the woman in front of him in disbelief, which happened to meet Mu Ranyue's naked eyes staring at him.
Ye Zichen really couldn't accept such a look and Mu Ranyue's words just now. He looked away slightly, but the tips of his ears seemed to be slightly red. He slowly spat out a few words:
"Her Royal Highness the Princess, she is both talented and beautiful, and she is unworthy of matching." The concise words not only rejected Mu Ranyue, but also did not make her lose face.
Yunshang on the side was really shocked by those words, shouldn't a much-loved princess be very proud? For example, Mu Qingwu obviously likes night phases very much, but in front of night phases, she has always looked high, and she will never lose her dignity as a princess.
The person in front of her, whose identity is more precious than Mu Qingwu, and is more favored by the emperor, why did she dare to say that she wanted to marry Ye Xiang so nakedly, and she was not afraid of being embarrassed after being rejected.
Mu Ranyue was not angry at Ye Zichen's refusal, and felt that he was still a little level in these words. "Okay, joking with you, why are you so serious, don't you know how to follow me?"
"It's better for the princess to make less of this kind of joke." Ye Zichen is not stupid, he knows that although Mu Ranyue's words just now were a joke, there is some truth in them.
He didn't expect Mu Ranyue to like him so easily. It seems that the plan to take the key to exchange the freedom of the mother is not far away.
However, now he is not sure how much Mu Ranyue likes him, so it is better to contact him a few more times first.
It's just that, looking at Mu Ranyue's innocent and flawless appearance, he felt a little guilty in his heart, but this emotion was fleeting. For so many years, whether he is to himself or to others, he will not be soft-hearted, and it is naturally the same for Mu Ranyue.
"My lord, Qingyun Temple has arrived." The driver reported after stopping.
After Mu Ranyue got off the car with Ye Zichen, she saw Qingyun Temple standing high on the lonely peak of the steep protrusion, the golden glazed tiles shining in the sun, the vermilion wall, and the majestic gatehouse.
Mu Ranyue couldn't help but marvel, this Qingyun Temple is worthy of being the first temple in Nanling.
Mu Ranyue took Yun Shang and Ye Zichen up the stairs together. The stairs are still very high, about 200 meters.
On the way, Mu Ranyue teased Ye Zichen: "I haven't had time to ask why you came to this Qingyun Temple, could it be that you are here to ask for marriage?" ”
"So what?" Ye Zichen's answer this time was unexpected, he suddenly wanted to tease Mu Ranyue.
Mu Ranyue was stunned: "No, you, are you really here to ask for marriage?" She definitely didn't believe that such an indifferent person as Ye Zichen would come to ask about marriage, this guy must have lied to her. But his voice was as indifferent as usual, so that people couldn't tell the truth at all.
Ye Zichen didn't answer her. He's a person who doesn't like jokes, so let her figure it out for herself.
Mu Ranyue was a little stupid. But it's good for a while. It doesn't matter if he asks for marriage or not, what can he do if he does, as long as he doesn't like it, it doesn't matter.
Finally arrived at the temple gate, Mu Ranyue and Yun Sheng were tired and panting. But after standing there and resting for a while, he saw that Ye Zichen on his side was gone.
Mu Ranyue was a little disappointed, and he didn't say a word to himself when he left, was he really so insignificant in his heart?
Mu Ranyue didn't care, and after entering the hall with Yunshang, they parted ways, one went to pray for blessings, and the other went to ask for peace charms. The two met in front of the Mahavira Hall.
When Mu Ranyue came back from asking for a peace charm, Yunshang had been waiting for a long time, and Mu Ranyue smiled at her a little embarrassedly. Yunshang didn't care at all.
"Yunshang, I think the scenery in this temple is really good, why don't we go for a walk again."
"However, Your Highness, it is now half over, this is ......" Yunshang was afraid of missing the time set by His Majesty to return to the palace.
"It's okay, isn't there still more than an hour? Don't worry, I won't be shopping for long. Mu Ranyue said.
Yunshang didn't quite believe her words, she had told her when she was shopping this morning, but she hadn't counted them.
However, Yunshang still accompanied Mu Ranyue to go shopping, who called Mu Ranyue the master?
Mu Ranyue and Yunshang came to the back of the temple, and the voices of a man and a woman came out of a rockery.
Mu Ranyue couldn't help but step forward to take a look. Sure enough, it was a man and a woman, and it seemed to be a couple. Hey, it's interesting, show your affection and show to the temple. Mu Ranyue thought.
She took a few more steps forward, trying to see what was going on. No way, who told her to be curious.
At this moment, she clearly saw the woman's face full of tears, looked at the man very sadly and said, "You really don't want to marry me?" Mu Ranyue felt that the woman was a little familiar.
The man had his back to Mu Ranyue, so he couldn't see his expression, but he could clearly hear the man spit out a word: "Yes." ”
"Why? I know you like me, but why would you push me to someone else? You know I don't like him. Is it that I haven't done well lately, you say, I'll change it. But I just beg you not to abandon me, okay? The woman cried.
Alas, another infatuated woman. Mu Ranyue sighed.
"It's not that you're bad, it's just that I don't like you anymore, so you won't be happy if you marry me." The man's voice was a little heavy.
"No, I'll be happy as long as I can marry you, I beg you, don't push me away, don't force me to leave you, okay, I beg you." The woman threw herself into the man's arms and begged.
Mu Ranyue could see that the man wanted to hug the woman, but for some reason, he still pushed her away, "Susu, don't be like this, I don't deserve you like this." Is it good to be obedient, the second emperor brother is your best destination. In the future, we'd better not see each other again. ”
Second Emperor Brother? Mu Ranyue was surprised that this man was actually Duan Wang Mu Xuanzhan. Who is that woman?
Mu Xuanzhan no longer looked at the woman, turned around and left, but with sadness on his face. And when he turned around, he saw Mu Ranyue and Yunsheng, he was very angry, he didn't expect his affairs to be seen by outsiders. He hadn't seen Mu Ranyue, so he didn't recognize her.
Mu Ranyue saw Mu Xuanzhan glaring at him, and immediately curtsied: "Changning has seen the Third Emperor Brother." Yunshang also followed Mu Ranyue and saluted: "See His Royal Highness King Duan." ”
Mu Xuanzhan saw Mu Ranyue dressed in men's clothes, and was surprised: "You are actually Changning?" ”
Mu Ranyue nodded, and saw that Mu Xuanzhan seemed a little uneasy, so she said: "Third Emperor Brother, don't worry, I won't tell my father the emperor about this." ”
Mu Xuanzhan thanked: "Thank you, sister Huang." ”
"Brother Sanhuang doesn't have to be polite, it's just that this woman ......" Mu Ranyue looked at the woman who was sitting on the ground against the rockery and crying embarrassed, feeling a little worried.
"She is Han Susu, the lord of Duanmin County, and she is also your childhood friend, can the royal sister help her brother persuade her?" Mu Xuanzhan looked worried.
Mu Ranyue was first surprised that the woman turned out to be Sister Han, who was the best friend with her when she was a child, and then she was puzzled that the third emperor brother seemed to like her very much, but he wanted to cut off the relationship ruthlessly. But now the situation did not allow her to ask more, and promised: "Don't worry, I will." ”
Mu Xuanzhan nodded and left.
