Clean clothes and shoes were brought over. Mu Yunyao followed Senior Servant Qu to a room at the side to change.

Senior Servant Qu prepared the clothes and placed them beside the charcoal brazier to heat them up before passing them to Mu Yunyao.

"Miss, quickly change into clean clothes. I'll wait outside. If there's anything else, I'll directly call for you.

"

"Thank you, Senior Qu.

"

Mu Yunyao's clothes were warm, and even her heart warmed a little when she changed into them. After changing her clothes, she let out a small sigh of relief.

Senior Servant Qu hurriedly came over to help her straighten her dress,

"I had originally wanted to let Miss Xu stay in the east wing of the courtyard, but Miss Xu said that she and you were extremely compatible, so I went next door to look for you. Is it possible that Miss Xu has a habit of staying here?

"

"The yard over there is extremely spacious, so it's fine to have one extra person.

" Mu Yunyao lightly smiled as she shook her head, but no emotions could be seen from her face.

"That's great, the Grand Princess was previously worried, saying that you have a cold personality, and that one more person wouldn't be enough to rest. Fortunately, the snow stopped falling, and we can go down the mountain.

" Senior Servant Qu tidied up her dress before getting someone to bring Jiang Tang over,

"Miss will drink a few mouthfuls to dispel the Chilling Qi in her body.

"

The taste of the ginger soup was extremely strong. When Mu Yunyao drank it, she felt as if she was gulping down the bitter medicine. It was truly unbearable.

When Senior Servant Qu saw her current appearance, she could not help but feel her heart ache. She shifted her attention to her words,

"Today's snowfall was exceptionally heavy. It seems like tomorrow might not be over.

"

"Yeah.

"

"Your servant saw that Miss is a bit absent-minded. Did you encounter some troublesome matters?

" Mu Yunyao looked at the steam rising from the Jiang Tang and felt her entire heart rise and fall.

"Senior Qu, you have seen a lot from the Grand Princess's side, I don't understand one thing, so I want to ask you about it.

"Tell me, can this person really do as he pleases?

"

" Senior Servant Qu shook her head.

"I can't accept a word of advice from Miss. I can actually share how this servant feels.

" When this servant was thirteen years old, she served by Grand Princess Yi De's side. It had been more than thirty years since then, and she had experienced and witnessed many things. However, there were times when she felt that she didn't have the ability to live …

Understood. The world is full of complex and complicated matters. Sometimes, one needs to think it through carefully and thoroughly, and sometimes, one might as well follow one's heart and follow one's heart. However, you cannot be certain about the specifics.

"

"Then how can we tell if this matter should be considered thoroughly, or if we should act according to our hearts?

"

"Miss, do you think that you can let go of all of this after you've thought it through?

" After that, she knew that they were related by blood and kinship, so she wanted to cut off her past. Logically, she knew that this was the most appropriate thing for the two of them to do, but she had already made up her mind, so she was unable to follow the decision she had made …

And do.

It was just like today. It was clearly a small matter, yet it caused her to be extremely concerned about it. Naturally, she did not put it down. Seeing Mu Yunyao fall silent, Senior Servant Qu smiled and said,

"What Young Miss is thinking, if you can put it aside after thinking it through thoroughly, then you naturally don't have to worry about it. If you think it through in a hundred ways, it's still hard to get rid of it.

"What do you care?

"

Mu Yunyao forcefully held the white jade cup with Jiang Tang in her hands. Jiang Tang was very hot and her hands burned painfully, but she was still unwilling to let go.

"Thank you, Senior Mu.

" Actually, when she opened her mouth to ask, wasn't it just an expression of not letting it go? If she really did put it down, then she wouldn't be so conflicted.

"As long as Miss can think things through, this servant does not know if what you said is correct. If you still have any doubts in your heart, you might as well ask the Grand Princess Yi De. The Grand Princess will definitely be able to help Miss out of her dilemma.

"

Mu Yunyao sipped the ginger soup from the porcelain cup and stood up to tidy up her sleeves.

"Grandmother should be getting up by now. I'll go take a look as well.

"

When Mu Yunyao arrived at the main hall, she heard Grand Princess Yi De praising Xu Qi,

"As for your skills at combing your hair, none of the people by my side can compare to you.

"

"Yunyao greets Princess Luoyang.

"

"Come over quickly, I was praising Xu Qi. In the future, you'll also learn how to comb your hair from her. You're already so old, and you still need your mother to comb your hair every day. She really is a spoiled child.

"

Mu Yunyao smiled in an extremely embarrassed manner,

"The Grand Princess loves to tease me. Actually, my skills at combing my hair are also quite good.

"

The Grand Princess Yi De smiled as she looked at her.

"Then how about you help me comb my hair some other day?

"

"I...

"I think it's better if I learn from sister Xu Qi before helping you comb your hair, so that you don't make a fool of yourself.

" Mu Yunyao pulled out the hand of Grand Princess Yi De, slightly shaking it, with a pleading look in her eyes.

Grand Princess Yi De smiled. Fine, let's not talk about you today. It's snowing outside and we have nothing to do, how about we play cards with Leaf?

"

"Alright, I'm very strong. I'll need more silver coins from the Grand Princess.

"

Yi De Grand Princess couldn't help but tap her forehead,

"Fine, when the time comes, you won't have to cry.

"

Mu Yunyao shook her head in an extremely confident manner,

"The Grand Princess is underestimating me. I have a lot of silver coins.

"

"Alright, alright. I know you know how to make money, so I won't be merciful later on. When I earn more silver coins for the new year, I'll have plenty of it.

"

Mu Yunyao intentionally coaxed Grand Princess Yi De to such an extent, causing the entire room to burst into laughter.

King Yue kept looking at Mu Yunyao, his clear and cold eyes concealing a smile.

"Imperial Aunt, count me in as well. However, I'm short on money, so Yunyao can lend me some silver.

" Even Grand Princess Yi De probably didn't have as much money as Yunyao did.

"Then I'll have to calculate the interest.

" Mu Yunyao looked at King Yue and secretly snorted in her heart. This person had just provoked her, and now he wanted to borrow money from her. He must calculate a little more interest.

"Alright, you can do whatever you want.

" It would be best if he still didn't know, and then he would compensate her!

King Yue's voice carried a smile, as if he did not care at all that Grand Princess Yi De, Xu Qi and the rest were watching them from the side.

Mu Yunyao felt uneasy in her heart. Her cheeks were a little hot, and her palms were covered in a thin layer of sweat.

Senior Servant Qu brought the leaf token over and coincidentally helped Mu Yunyao out of her predicament.

Grand Princess Yi De beckoned Su Qing over and softly taught her how to play. King Yue held the cards in his hand as he flipped through them one by one. It was unknown what he thought of, but the smile in his eyes was especially bewitching.

Mu Yunyao turned to look at Xu Qi,

"Sister Qi, why don't the two of us take turns playing?

" There's no need, Yunyao's little sister is playing with the Grand Princess. I've recently practiced some tea arts, so I'll make some cups of fragrant tea for you guys to have a taste. Speaking of which, the reputation of

"No Envy

" was exceptionally well-known in Yan Zhou. I made tea in front of Yunyao's little sister.

"

"Big sister Qi, where are you talking about? The two of us should be learning from each other.

"

Xu Qi went down to prepare some tea sets, and Mu Yunyao and the others began to play. Duke Yue and Mu Yunyao were sitting facing each other, and it was unknown how he had played the cards, but Mu Yunyao had lost the most miserably each time.
