Chapter 366
~ THE GRAND PRINCESS YI DE’S APPROVAL ~
The tent suddenly became silent. After a while, Grand Princess Yi De burst out laughing and said, “Don’t say anything else. The two of you are extremely compatible in personality.”
Mu Yunyao raised her head in surprise and looked at Grand Princess Yi De in confusion.
“What is it? Do you think I’m an evil person who would beat a lover?” The Grand Princess Yi De smiled with a hint of slyness in her smile.
“Yunyao doesn’t dare.” Mu Yunyao still felt a little absent-minded. Could it be … just now the Grand Princess Yi De just joking with her?
The Grand Princess Yi De laughed. “Take a seat. I heard that you are extremely skilled in making tea. Why don’t you make one so I can taste it?”
Mu Yunyao hurriedly nodded. “Yes.”
As soon as the Grand Princess Yi De finished her words, it was no wonder that a maid came forward with a whole set of tea sets.
Mu Yunyao carefully wiped her hands and took a deep breath. After calming her heart, she sat down behind the table and started brewing tea carefully. Soon, the fragrance of tea wafted out.
The Grand Princess Yi De looked appreciatively and nodded slightly: “Your tea-making craftsmanship is really great.”
Mu Yunyao pursed her lips and smiled, “I’ve practiced hard before.”
“No matter how hard many people practice, they can't reach your level. The reason is you have a talent. I heard that Bu Xian Luo has excellent development?”
Mu Yunyao’s heart trembled. She didn’t know if the Grand Princess Yi De was just casually asking, or if she had found out that the real owner of Bu Xian Luo was Yue Wang, “Currently, Bu Xian Luo has been set up in Eight Regions. The development is remarkably great, and every month it makes a lot of profit.”
The Grand PrincessYi De smiled. “Then that’s good. Step by step, there will always be time. The long term plan is to to keep things slowly and moisten things silently.”
A trace of understanding flashed through Mu Yunyao’s heart. The Grand Princess Yi De really did know. “Yes, Yunyao will remember this.”
“Child, you’re quite intelligent, and your skills in making tea are not bad either.You should often come to my place so we could talk with me.” The kid, Yue Wang, had been through many hardships for so many years. It was rare for him to have someone who could please his heart, so it’s better to suggest something that can bring up some points or raise some points.
“Yes, Yunyao thanks the Grand Princess for her love.” Since she had already decided that she wanted to make some progress with Yue Wang, she should plan things out for the future. Since the Grand Princess Yi De had already spoken, she wouldn’t be so foolish as to push such a great opportunity out.
At the door, Qu Mama walked in and reported, “Your Highness Grand Princess, Your Highness Yue Wang requests an audience. He is currently at the entrance of the tent.”
The Grand Princess Yi De couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s only been a short while. Can I still attact people here? Go tell him that I’m so busy right now and don’t have time to see him. Let him take a walk around the hunting grounds when he has nothing better to do, and asked him to bring two good furs.”
Qu Mama smiled and replied, “Yes, Your Highness. Your servant will pass on the message right away.”
The Grand Princess Yi De looked at Mu Yunyao, his eyes brimming with joy. “Junyue still needs to grind his temper a bit. He seems quite a calm person. But once he encounters something he cares about, he won’t care about anything. Moreover, he usually has a dull temperament. Even when facing his father, he would not say a word of soft words. I don’t know how many times he has suffered because of his personality.” In the beginning, as long as he was not so bigoted, the Emperor would not have sent him to Western Guangdong.
Mu Yunyao was a little stunned. Yue Wang, in her memories, and the person whom Grand Princess Yi De spoke were very different. He would conceal his little thoughts and think of some tricks to make her happy, to shamelessly say that his internal injuries had yet to heal … Even if he is usually cold, he always faces her with gentle eyebrows and eyes. She can’t see that he was narrow-minded at all.
The corner of Grand Princess Yi De’s lips wore a slight smile, and she didn’t point out what to say. In this world, it is easy for him to ask for priceless treasures. But it is rare for him to found a lover. Yue Wang converged his strength in front of Mu Yunyao and worked hard to get closer to her. If he can get her heart, then everyone will be happy. But if he failed, it could only mean that fate had yet to arrive. Everyone understood this logic, but not many people could truly practice it. Whether it was bitter or sweet, the two of them still needed to experience it for themselves.
Not long after, Qu Mama walked in again. “Reporting to His Royal Highness Grand Princess, His Royal Highness Yue Wang has brought some prey and would like to invite you out to take a look.”
“So fast? Did he shoot two rabbits to deal with me?” The Grand Princess Yi De stood up, “Yunyao, you come with me to take a look.” If she didn’t let her out, someone might break in later.
Just as Grand Princess Yi De left the tent entrance, she saw that Yue Wang’s gaze was focused on the tent’s entrance.
“Greetings, Imperial Aunt.” Yue Wang cupped his hands in salute. When he saw Mu Yunyao’s usual expression, he couldn’t help but secretly let out a sigh of relief. This morning, he had originally wanted to find Mu Yunyao to ride a horse. However, he was informed that his Imperial Aunt had called her away first, so he hurriedly rushed over.
Several preys were lying on the table at the side. Each of them had been pierced by an arrow and died. There was not much blood on them, and it did not damage their fur in the slightest.
“It looks like your riding and shooting skills have improved quite a bit in just one night. Yesterday, you only handed in one hare to deal with the situation. But today, six prey have appeared in a short time.” The Grand Princess Yi De looked at Yue Wang with a smile and then waved her hand. “Alright, I understand that young kids like you can’t stand talking to an old lady like me. So, just do whatever you have to do.”
Yue Wang and Mu Yunyao looked at each other, their ears slightly flushed. “What nonsense is Imperial Aunt saying? What’s so good about hunting? We’re all willing to accompany you.”
“There are plenty of opportunities to accompany me in the future. It wasn’t easy for you to come to the hunting grounds, so you’ve got to have fun.
“Yes.”
Mu Yunyao followed Yue Wang outside. Along the way, various gazes would be cast towards them from the surroundings from time to time. Her forehead slightly frowns, but she didn’t deliberately pull the distance away.
Walking all the way out of the camp, only then did Yue Wang stop his steps, feeling a little nervous in his heart, “Yunyao, what did Imperial Aunt say to you?”
Mu Yunyao raised her head and slightly stretched her body. She removed the tension from her body and found a clean patch of grass to sit down on. “What does Fourth Master think the Grand Princess will say to me?”
“I can’t guess what Imperial Aunt was thinking, but it should have something to do with me injuring Meng Yanran last night.”
“That’s right, Grand Princess Yi De said that I implicated you, causing you to form an enmity with the Meng family in the Imperial Court.” Yes, that’s right, Grand Princess Yi De said that I implicated you, causing you to form an enmity with the Meng family in the imperial court. In the future, it could be said that the situation is more difficult. She also said that there's a big gap between your status and I, and there is a possibility that we won’t be together in the future...” Mu Yunyao’s face carried a hint of sadness, but her tone was filled with a sense of loss.
Yue Wang’s eyes focused. He walked up to Mu Yunyao, bent his legs, and squatted down, “Since I was young, I have not been favored by Imperial Father. At the age of twelve, I have been entrusted to Western Guangdong, and most of the officials in the Imperial Court did not place any importance on me, so it doesn’t matter whether I got into a feud or not. As for identity, I never care. What about ordinary people? So what if I am the Emperor’s son? If I had valued my status, I wouldn’t still be by myself right now.”
Mu Yunyao raised her head slightly and looked at the Yue Wang, who was squatting in front of her, with a smile suddenly bursting into her face: “I’m just joking. How could Grand Princess Yi De say such things? She just asked me to make her a cup of tea and talk to her when I am free.”
Even if he wasn’t favored, he was still the current prince and the legitimate son of the Emperor. If he could put down his status and not be afraid of gossip, then what was there to be afraid of? She started her life over again. If she couldn’t live a happy life as she wished, what was the difference between this and her previous life?
“Really?”
“Of course.” A breeze blew by, giving her a chilly feeling. Mu Yunyao slightly narrowed her eyes and stroked her hair was blown around by the wind behind her ears. She narrowed her eyes and said, “Didn’t Fourth Master say he wanted to teach me how to ride a horse? Is that true?”
