Chapter 67: Uncovering the Scars
"Your Highness, I am a woman who follows you to the capital, and I will mistake your reputation!"
Mu Jiaren's face was full of resistance.
Beichen Ye grabbed her arm, Mu Jiaren has been very well-behaved in the past few days, and he didn't make him angry, this matter is extremely abnormal, he was worried that Mu Jiaren was going to run out again, so he came over to test it, but he didn't expect her to really think like this!
"Ji Yanxi has recovered and gone home, you like him so much, you must know that Master Ji is an official in the court, it shouldn't be difficult to depose a squire as my son."
Mu Jia was shocked and looked at him in disbelief: "Your Highness, you are not such a person!" ”
"For you, I can be."
Mu Jiaren pouted, she originally wanted to leave after saying goodbye, was this to force her to escape halfway?
"Is it that if I accompany you to the capital, I won't hurt the Ji family?"
"Of course." Ji Yanxi is already preparing for marriage, and Beichen Ye wants Mu Jiaren to see it with her own eyes, so that she can be her princess with peace of mind.
Mu Jiaren sighed: "Got it." ”
Beichen Ye nodded with satisfaction: "Have a good rest, if you need anything, you can order your subordinates to prepare." ”
Hearing his words, Mu Jiaren's eyes lit up, even if he went to the capital, he could talk about the conditions!
"Your Highness, I have a need."
"What?"
"I have a lot of things to bring with me for walking the rivers and lakes, if you don't agree, I won't go."
"Show me a list of things you're going to bring."
Mu Jiaren knew that he would say this, so where would he agree?
"No, you have guards, I don't have anything, in case of danger, the first person they protect is you, what should I do?"
"I'll protect you."
Mu Jiaren's eyes were worried, and a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes, his body, even if he knew martial arts, was not very good.
"Your Highness, let's take care of yourself, and say whether you agree to this condition or not."
Beichen Ye didn't know what she was going to do, but thinking that if she agreed to go to the capital, she wouldn't change her hexagram, and she didn't know what she would encounter along the way, so it would be good for her to bring something to defend herself.
"Yes, but what you prepared is not allowed to be used on me." After he finished speaking, he added, "It can't be on other people in the palace either!" ”
"I promise I won't use these to hurt the people of the palace."
Beichen Ye nodded in agreement, and Mu Jiaren stretched out his hand: "Give two hundred taels of silver first." ”
"I'll ask Han Yunqian to send it over tomorrow, and the silver and silver are all there for him."
"Ahh Are you penniless? ”
"Hmm."
Beichen Ye replied well-behaved, Mu Jiaren felt very envious, sure enough, the life of the nobles was different from her, they didn't have to wear it on their bodies if they had a lot of money, and Han Yunqian was originally in charge of the accounts, no wonder he was always busy and couldn't see people.
As soon as Beichen Ye left, Mu Jiaren began to write lists, some of which could be prepared by the palace, and some of which she prepared by herself.
After writing, she unfolded the picture scroll, and there were still clothes left in Beichen Ye's portrait, so in order not to be alone with him, she specially borrowed the clothes that Beichen Ye was wearing, and finished the picture scroll according to it.
Early the next morning, Han Yunqian came to deliver the silver.
"I didn't expect you to agree so quickly."
Han Yunqian put down the silver and saw a list on the table.
"What's this, I can't beat the world, even if I can fight, I don't dare to fight."
Han Yunqian was stunned for a moment, he thought it was because of emotional reasons, and sure enough, he didn't know anything about Mu Jiaren.
"What's in your hand?"
"This is the portrait I drew for His Highness before, and I wonder if I should put it in the study."
Han Yunqian took it and opened it: "The ...... you painted"
"It's not pretty, is it?"
"No, no, I think it's emotional."
"Emotion?"
Mu Jiaren didn't understand, Han Yunqian took the painting and took her to the library pavilion together, and took down a scroll, although it was placed in a wooden box, the gold sprinkled paper was already slightly yellowed, it should have been something from many years ago.
"Your Highness's appearance has actually changed a lot over the years, but the way you painted it reminds me of His Highness's childhood."
The picture scroll opened, and Mu Jiaren saw that the young man above was only about seven or eight years old, wearing a azure dragon scale pattern rolling hair cloak, holding a budding yellow plum in his hand, and behind him was a rockery and a garden.
"When Your Highness was a child, he was so cute!"
Mu Jiaren looked at his face a little rounder than it is now, and his big eyes flashed on his red face, as if he could see sporadic snowflakes in his amber eyes.
"How old is Your Highness?"
"At the age of seven, the prince was fighting outside that year, and the emperor asked His Royal Highness to celebrate his birthday in the palace, so he summoned a painter to paint for His Royal Highness, and the inscription on it was written by the first emperor."
It can be seen that the emperor loved this imperial grandson very much, so he left a message that he could be crowned king when he was twenty years old.
The reason why Han Yunqian said that she was a little emotional was because her painting and this painting both made Beichen Ye's painting pure and beautiful, and it was spotless.
"People will change when they grow, why should Han Gongzi be so emotional?" Mu Jiaren said with a smile.
Han Yunqian put away the scroll and shook his head: "Originally, the son of the world was such a person, pure and beautiful, and so gentle to the world, but when he was seven years old, an assassin sneaked into the palace and almost took him away and killed him. ”
Han Yunqian put the two paintings in a wooden box and left the library with Mu Jiaren.
"Since then, His Highness has not been able to see anything, has not said anything, and his body has become thinner and thinner, and I was also admitted to the palace by my aunt at that time to accompany His Highness."
"Snow blindness is indeed not easy to treat, no wonder His Highness still can't see the bright light now." Mu Jiaren sighed, it turned out that Shizi had experienced such a thing when he was a child.
"At that time, the assassin disguised himself as the emperor's favorite concubine Gao, and left with the prince, who had no city in his heart, so he believed in the bad guys, and was taken out of the palace and almost left the city, so since then, the prince has not believed in women, and he does not want any women to approach."
"Then he should be back now."
"It surprises me that Your Highness can believe you, maybe you are the daughter of Lord Mu."
"Really?"
"The prince's diet in the palace is all in charge of Lord Mu, and the emperor has the most trust in Lord Mu, so he let him be in charge of the prince's diet."
"However, my father's cooking skills have not been passed on to me, and I can't cook His Highness's favorite food."
Mu Jiaren sighed a little, it turned out that she and the prince still had some origins.
"But there's something you can help with."
"What?"
"After His Highness was in distress, he kept holding a rabbit puppet, and then the puppet was lost somehow, and His Highness was sad and didn't eat for several days, I know what it looks like, draw it and see if you can help make one."
Mu Jiaren had asked Han Yunqian what gift he could give Beichen Ye as a return gift for the bracelet, he had something to do at the time, so he said that he would tell her in a few days, and the two talked about it here, and he felt that he could just send this to Beichen Ye.
"It was His Highness's childhood toy, and now it's inappropriate to give it to him, and as soon as I give it to him, he must know that you told me this, are you sure he doesn't mind?"
"Your Highness doesn't treat you as an outsider, you're going to the capital soon, you know more, it's better than being rumored by outsiders, Your Highness doesn't lack anything, you can paint so vividly, he will like to make rabbits."
Mu Jiaren nodded, this gift did seem sincere.
