Chapter 573
Seeing the craftsmen's expressions that were filled with difficulty, Mu Yunyao really couldn't bear to see King Yue and Eunuch Cheng make things difficult for them again.
"Fourth Master, did you not invite anyone to draw a blueprint to rebuild the garden?
"
"I don't like people pointing fingers in my house.
" Yue Wang lowered his gaze to look at Mu Yunyao, as if his words carried some hidden meaning.
Mu Yunyao's eyes were filled with smiles. She tilted her head slightly and looked at King Yue with watery eyes.
"Then how about I plan on the blueprints and let the craftsmen build it?
"
"Alright.
"
"Yes!
" Yue Wang agreed quickly, as if he was waiting for Mu Yunyao's words.
"Let the craftsmen stop their work first. I will plan out the blueprints in two days, and then let them take action.
" I can see that the lotus pond over there is not bad, but did Master Si give some guidance?
"
"When the lotus pond was built, I was in Jiangnan. It should be under the watch of the craftsmen.
"
"Even Eunuch Cheng didn't offer any pointers?
"
Upon hearing his question, Eunuch Cheng couldn't help but turn away.
"At that time, I was worried that you didn't have the time to guide us, but does young mistress find anything to be dissatisfied with?
" If there is, let the craftsmen change it.
"
"No, I look pretty good.
" Mu Yunyao endured her laughter. It could be said that the scenery around the entire palace, which was also the lotus pond, could already be easily seen.
With this, the Duke of Yue and Eunuch Cheng's expressions grew even more awkward.
Eunuch Cheng signaled for the craftsmen to go down and rest for the time being as he said,
"Your highness, accompany Miss to the lotus pond to enjoy the scenery. This servant will instruct people to prepare food.
"
"Thank you for your trouble, Eunuch Cheng.
"
Although the lotus pond wasn't big, it was beautifully built. The white jade railings were carved with pictures of flying birds, fish, and bugs. A small pavilion was built on the shore, and there was a winding path.
Mu Yunyao and King Yue sat beside the pavilion and leaned against the railing as they looked at the layers of lotus leaves in the pond. Occasionally, a red carp would swim past, causing the lotus pond to be suffused with a little bit of microwaves.
The breeze blew gently, and sitting by the lotus pond felt extremely comfortable.
There was a light smile on Mu Yunyao's lips. After admiring the scenery in the lotus pond, she leaned on Yue Yang's shoulder.
Yue Yang's expression instantly became extremely gentle, slightly relaxing his shoulders, allowing Mu Yunyao to lean on him more comfortably.
Neither of them spoke, but there was an especially warm atmosphere that flowed between the two of them. Even though they were only living together in silence, they still felt extremely satisfied.
Mu Yunyao had been running back and forth these past few days and spent her mind and energy to help Min Fanghua prepare to get married. Now, as she leaned on Yue Yang's body and smelled the chilly air coming from his body, she actually gradually fell asleep after relaxing. Yue Yang felt his shoulders grow heavy. He turned his head to look at Mu Yunyao and discovered that her breathing was exceptionally steady. It was obvious that she was fast asleep. Yue Yang slowly reached out his hands to hold Mu Yunyao in his arms. Looking at her defenseless state, he felt his heart soften. Her gaze carefully swept over her face …
Inch by inch, it was as if he was trying to carve her appearance deep into his heart.
Eunuch Cheng had come here before and saw the two of them snuggling together before he even got close. He hurriedly stopped.
Yu Heng found it rare to have a string in his head as he asked,
"Eunuch Cheng, although it's summer now, the water's edge is humid. Should we send a light blanket over to Your Highness?
"
Eunuch Cheng turned around and looked him straight in the eye.
"Are you dumb?
"
"Aren't I thinking for my master? With a blanket, you can still show that your master is considerate, can't you?
"
Eunuch Cheng sighed,
"Yu Heng, do you know why you haven't found a wife yet?
"
"I'm in no hurry.
"
"Even if you want to be anxious, someone has to be willing to talk to you. Eunuch Cheng, let me tell you, between men and women, the colder it is, the more clothes you can't prepare, the more water you can't prepare, the more you can't …
" Cough cough, you don't understand something that's too profound for you to understand. The first two moves are more than enough.
"
Yu Heng was suspicious,
"Eunuch Cheng, how do you know all this?
" You're not. Cough cough …
Eunuch Cheng put his hands behind his back and ignored Yu Heng with an unfathomable expression. He then turned and walked away.
Yu Heng didn't quite understand, so he pulled Yu Yi over.
"Why didn't you let us go get a blanket when you said that it was because of Eunuch Cheng?
"
Yu Yi blinked his eyes and looked at the way the prince was hugging Miss Mu.
"The prince's firepower is great, is he even carrying a blanket?
"
Yu Heng swallowed his saliva,
"Is there no need for that?
"
"Do I need to use it?
"
"It seems...
"It's fine even if there's no need …
"
"Then why aren't you on guard?
"
When Mu Yunyao woke up, the sun had already set in the west, leaving only the fiery red afterglow hanging in the sky. This sleep of hers was unexpectedly particularly sweet.
"You're awake?
" King Yue's voice was low and gloomy, the soft mumble causing one's heart to feel numb.
"Master Four?
" Mu Yunyao's remaining sleepiness instantly faded as she hurriedly sat up.
"I … I fell asleep.
"
"These days, I've been too tired. Blame me, I should have let you go back to Qin Fang Yuan to rest first.
"
Mu Yunyao saw that the King wasn't moving and looked at the sky, so she guessed that his shoulder must have gone numb. She quickly stepped forward and gently massaged him,
"Fourth Master, why didn't you wake me up?
"
King Yue felt that Mu Yunyao's strength was just right and could not help but narrow her eyes.
"It's rare to have such a good opportunity to accompany you, how could I bear to wake you up?
"
Mu Yunyao's heart was sweet, and the atmosphere within the small pavilion became even warmer.
Yu Heng was standing in the distance. He had been looking in their direction, but he had unknowingly turned his head away.
Yu Yi asked curiously,
"What's wrong?
"
"It's nothing, I just saw Master and Miss Mu sleeping together. I'm really lonely.
"
"You've always been like this. It's been so many years, and you're still not used to it?
"
Yu Heng choked,
"Are you still my brother?
"
Yu Yi patted Yu Heng's shoulder,
"Actually, I'm not going to look at the words of the prince and Miss Mu and I don't feel that it's very obvious. Look at this, you go to Jiangnan to help Steward Qin, I'm used to serving in the Prince's Mansion, I think it's good to be alone.
"
"No, I need to get used to it.
" Yu Heng hurriedly refused.
Yu Yi grunted,
"Are you still my brother?
"
"Come to think of it, we aren't brothers.
" Yu Heng glanced at him.
"Aren't you going to help Eunuch Cheng prepare a meal?
"
"Eunuch Cheng dislikes my help.
" Yu Yi sighed,
"In the past, in the west of Guangdong Province, it was already good to have a meal every day. Back then, I was lacking in manpower, and I was even working as a chef for a period of time. Now, you despise me.
"
Yu Heng turned his head around.
"It's not like you've been ignored for a day or two, but you're still not used to it?
"
"Scram!
"
Mu Yunyao didn't know about the conversation between Yu Heng and Yu Yi, so when they were walking towards the courtyard, she couldn't help but ask,
"The two of them aren't young anymore, right?
"
"Hm, what's wrong?
"
"Jinlan, Jinqiao and the others are all around the same age. If they're interested, I'd like to make a match for them.
