Chapter 23: The Return of the King

The atmosphere in the palace is very strange these days, the prince and the princess neither meet nor talk, the princess tinkers with her own things in her small courtyard every day, and the prince also goes to the barracks and never comes back. However, Aunt Qinglian was favored because of that night, so she flaunted her might, and the people did not dare to speak, but could only discuss it in private.

In the past few days, several ready-to-wear shops in the city have sent a lot of new clothes to the princess, and everyone is even more discussed, thinking that it is estimated that the princess has fallen out of favor and is desperately spending money to vent her anger.

On this day, Xiao Song and the people who had been rescued outside the city some time ago brought the newly harvested bud rice into the city to thank King Yan and Princess Yan, but they only saw Princess Yan.

Xiao Song and his sister mentioned King Yan, but they saw Mu Xiyun's eyes dim, and Xiao Song Niang quickly took over.

"Princess, our village women don't understand the rules of the nobles, but we see that the prince is really good to you, don't let down that heart."

"Auntie, I don't understand many things, I can't understand a lot of what he said, but he doesn't understand many things I do." Mu Xiyun heard Xiao Songniang say this, and her heart was even more sad.

"Princess, we all see the prince's kindness to you, you don't want the child's temper to make him angry, it is right for a woman to obey her husband." Xiao Songniang heard Mu Xiyun's sadness, and took her hand and said comfortingly.

"Auntie, why do women have to obey their husbands, can't they have their own ideas and do what they want to do." Mu Xiyun said with a puzzled face.

"The husband is your heaven, and only under his protection can you live well, this is the unchanging truth."

"I don't want anyone's protection, I can protect myself and everyone around me." Mu Xiyun really couldn't understand why a woman in the mortal world had to regard her husband as her own belief and lose her own thoughts, so she asked Xiao Songniang suspiciously.

Xiao Songniang is a peasant woman, naturally she has never thought about this, but she didn't know how to answer when asked by Mu Xiyun.

At this moment, Qinglian walked in with a thin waist like a willow, and shouted at a large group of people when she entered the door.

"I should be a valuable person and need to be personally received by the princess, it turns out that they are all rural villagers, no wonder there is a strange smell wafting from the whole palace."

"You!" Xiao Song was very angry, and just as he was about to come forward to reason with her, he was pulled back by his mother and saluted Qinglian.

Qinglian didn't become polite because of their politeness, but kicked the bud on the ground, covered her nose and screamed again.

"What kind of thing is this, how can this kind of vulgar food be brought to the Yanwang Mansion!"

Originally, I went to the city just to thank King Yan and Princess Yan for saving me a few months ago, and the people in the village naturally couldn't get anything good, so they wanted to bring the freshly ripe bud rice from the ground to give them a taste.

"Aunt Qinglian, this princess is receiving distinguished guests, so you don't have to come in person, so as not to ruin everyone's interest." Mu Xiyun sat on the main seat in the hall and said sternly to Qinglian.

"It turns out that the princess's guests are some rural villagers, which is really valuable." After speaking, Qinglian proudly picked up the fan in her hand and laughed.

"Duo'er, you arrange the kitchen, this princess will have a banquet for all the distinguished guests tonight, and bring the best food in the palace." Mu Xiyun ignored Qinglian's sneer, and only turned around and said loudly to Duo'er.

Duo'er saw that Qinglian was choked again, and ran out with a happy face. After a while, the palace spread the news that the princess was going to feast the people outside the city, and most of the family servants were from the people's homes, and the princess did this to make everyone's hearts have a little more respect for her.

"Aunt Qinglian, I see that you are also busy with a lot of things, so I won't arrange for you to eat at the same table with us, and invite Aunt Hongmei here." Mu Xiyun was really happy to see Qinglian being teased, and couldn't help but say a few more words.

As soon as Qinglian walked to the door full of anger, she heard Zhisong shouting and ran in.

"Princess, the palace has returned from the barracks today, and now it is about to arrive at the gate of the palace."

As soon as Qinglian heard that Yu Mingche was back, she immediately twisted her waist and ran towards the gate of the palace.

"Got it." When Mu Xiyun heard Yu Mingche's name, he couldn't wait to run to see him like Qinglian, but he remembered the quarrel more than ten days ago, so he replied lightly.

This made Zhisong embarrassed, the messenger clearly said that he would let the princess go to the door to greet him, but he never thought that the princess would not go now, but Aunt Qinglian ran away like a rabbit, and the prince would not see the princess later, would he continue to be angry with her, not only that, but he would also be implicated and punished.

"Princess, since the princess is back, you, as the princess, should go to the door to greet you." Xiao Songniang pulled Mu Xiyun and said kindly.

Although Mu Xiyungui is the princess, she has saved her life several times, and she has long treated her as a daughter.

"Didn't someone run away? Do you still need me? Besides, Yu Mingche goes back and forth every day, and I'm not used to this stinky temper. Mu Xiyun's eyes lit up when he heard him come back, but when he saw Qinglian's impatient appearance and remembered the scene of their warmth, his face darkened again.

"Princess!" Looking at Mu Xiyun like this, Xiao Songniang couldn't help but cry out worriedly.

At this time, Sister Komatsu came over and took Mu Xiyun's hand and said with a smile

"Sister, you can go, every time my brother goes out, I have to wait for him at the door, and he will be very happy to see me when he comes back."

In fact, Mu Xiyun misses him, he is not by his side for so many days, and he always feels that the big and soft bed is not easy to sleep at night, and it is difficult to fall asleep after turning it over, but every time he thinks of his gentle voice, he feels very angry, because he will also say this to others.

But unable to resist the persuasion of the Komatsu family and others, Mu Xiyun still went to the gate very reluctantly, and after a while, he saw Yu Mingche riding a horse to the front of the palace.

Qinglian and Hongmei stepped forward one after another, Qinglian was able to change into a more colorful dress in such a short time to greet her, and Mu Xiyun, who was already unhappy, was even more angry now.

Yu Mingche is different, although he is in the military camp these days, he has always remembered Mu Xiyun in his heart, but he was drunk and close to Qinglian, and he felt a little sorry for her in his heart, so he didn't dare to come back to see her stinky face.

But everything is normal in the barracks, but Yu Mingche is desperate not to go down, which makes Wei Chiyan feel strange, in the past, he didn't come in a hurry and hurried back, and hurried home to see his daughter-in-law, but now he is reading books in the barracks, and he can't help but urge him a few more times, which makes him go back to the palace.

Yu Mingche doesn't know what's wrong with her, obviously misses her very much, wants to see her very much, wants to hold her very much, but is afraid that he will rely on her, and when she really disappears, what should he do?

But when I really saw her at the gate of the palace, I already had the answer in my heart, and my heart had already gone to her, no matter what happened in the future, I would never be stupid enough to let go of her easily at this moment.

Just simply said hello to the enthusiastic Qinglian Hongmei, and walked towards Mu Xiyun with an angry face, even if it was just a few short steps, everyone could see the prince's thoughts, when he walked towards her, there was no one else in his heart, only her!

Mu Xiyun looked at Yu Mingche, who was full of tenderness, ignored Qinglian Hongmei and just walked towards her, at that moment, she had forgiven him in her heart, and she really wanted to go up and hug him like this, and punch him a few times.

But Yu Mingche walked in front of Mu Xiyun but turned around to pull Xiao Songniang, who was kneeling on the ground, and instantly Mu Xiyun felt that a gust of wind was blowing, and he became discouraged.
