Chapter 718
After the six taels left, Mu Yunyao blankly stood there for a moment. Then, she slowly sat down at a table at the side.
"Jin Lan …
"
Jinqiao quickly walked in.
"Princess Consort, Jinlan's elder sister went to the kitchen to help you watch the meal. Your servant is here. What instructions do you have for me?
"
Mu Yunyao raised her eyes and looked at the dazzling sunlight outside. She paused for a moment before saying,
"Hand over the chess board, you can accompany me to play chess for a while.
"
She carefully opened her mouth and said,
"Esteemed wangfei, your servant's character is stupid, and I'm not as transparent as Big Sister Jin Lan. I'm not proficient in chess, and if you want to play chess, I can come to the front courtyard and invite the prince back, right?
"
"No need, just bring the chessboard over.
"
"Yes.
"
Coincidentally, Mu Yunyao took the chessboard over and placed it down. Mu Yunyao randomly picked up the pieces of a chess piece, one after another, and placed them on the intertwined chessboard. Only after a while did she feel her mood gradually calm down.
She did not have any feelings for men or women, but she could deliver her full trust after meeting him. He would often hide himself, and although he was usually unremarkable, when he seriously thought about it, it felt like he was everywhere. Unknowingly, three years had passed.
From now on, they would not meet again. Even if they did, they would probably be completely different.
Mu Yunyao came back to her senses, stood up, and stretched her stiff shoulders. Only now did she realize that the sun had already set in the west, and the weather was no longer as hot as it was before.
I've already received the letter that Tu Ao sent. From the looks of it, he wants to trade the weapon for a cure for the plague and use it to help me leave the capital. I'm not in a hurry to respond.
"Mm. You've always been a calm person, and you don't have any good feelings towards the Northern Frontier either. He'll probably find it strange if you agree so quickly. It'll be good for him to extend it a little.
" Mu Yunyao nodded, as if she was bored and used her hands to play with a few chess pieces.
Duke Yue sat beside Mu Yunyao, held her hand, and raised his eyes to look at her seriously.
"Yao`er, what's wrong?
" From the moment she entered the room, she had been speaking with a strange look on her face, as if she had something on her mind that she was trying not to show.
Mu Yunyao pursed her lips. The lake in her heart, which had originally calmed down, rippled once again when she heard these words. She felt that it was a little strange and felt that she shouldn't be like this, but she couldn't control her reddened eyes:
"Fourth Master, we bid our farewells today and he's leaving.
"
Yue Yang's heart moved. He raised his hand to hold her face and placed a kiss on her forehead:
"Yao'er, it doesn't matter why you left, it was his choice. I remember you saying before that as long as you are willing to leave, you will support him.
"
Mu Yunyao blinked, tears falling from her eyes.
"What I know is … I'm just a little worried.
" She was unable to respond to these six taels of silver. This was the best result, but her heart was empty for a moment, as if she had lost something precious.
"Don't worry. I've gradually placed some men in the north. They will take good care of me. Besides, I also have a lot of people to protect me. Nothing will happen.
"
Mu Yunyao nodded. Only after a while did she manage to calm the sadness in her heart. She simply used some porridge at night and fell asleep not long after lying on the bed.
King Yue's expression gradually darkened. He extended his hand to caress Mu Yunyao's hair before he slowly walked out of the backyard.
"Yu Heng, go and invite the Poison Matriarch over.
"
"Your highness, it looks like a curfew is coming soon, are you going to invite people now?
"
"Now!
" King Yue's voice was solemn.
"Yes.
"
When she heard the Battleaxe King come invite someone, the poison woman thought something had happened to Mu Yunyao and didn't have time to clean up before hurrying over,
"Your Highness, what happened to Yunyao?
"
Yue Yang didn't beat around the bush and directly said:
"A while ago, Yao'er was afflicted with a hallucinogenic drug. You personally helped her take a look at it, is there any side effects of that drug?
"
"Is Yao'er in a bad mood?
"
"En, today please leave by yourself. Yunyao has always been in low spirits, she doesn't seem like the person she used to be.
"
"I will first go and check Yun Yao's pulse before I can make a concrete judgement.
"
"Alright, come with me.
"
Mu Yunyao was sleeping soundly, but her eyebrows were constantly creased in her sleep, making her look extremely restless.
The Poison Matriarch made light movements. After checking Mu Yunyao's pulse, she frowned slightly and stood up, indicating for King Yue to speak to her.
"His pulse is normal. It doesn't seem to have any problems.
" However, King Yue's expression was solemn:
"You just went in to check Yun Yao's pulse. She was asleep and did not wake up. This is something that has never happened before. Yao'er's five senses were extremely sharp, and her daily sleep was also shallow. Even the slightest movement would have woken her up, but when she moved her arm, she didn't notice anything at all.
"
"That shouldn't be the case,
" the Poison Lady couldn't figure it out.
"How about this, I'll stay by Yunyao's side for the rest of the time. If there's anything abnormal, I should be able to detect it immediately.
"
Knowing that Yunyao had always considered the Poison Lady to be her good friend, Wang Yue agreed,
"Okay, I'll be troubling you for the next few days.
"
"For Yun Yao, it's only right.
"
King Yue ordered the servants to prepare the courtyard for the Poison Matriarch before he returned to his room to rest with Mu Yunyao.
The next morning, Mu Yunyao had only just woken up when she met the smiling eyes of King Yue.
"Fourth Master, why are you awake so early?
"
King Yue caressed her lower abdomen.
"I am so happy to think of children that I can't sleep.
"
Mu Yunyao laughed, her mood returning to normal,
"Then I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep well in the future.
"
After the two of them got up and washed up, they ate their breakfast together. Only then did the Titan King begin his business,
"Yao'er, I will be leaving for the capital tonight. You also have to follow your imperial aunt to the Mausoleum of Books.
Mu Yunyao nodded, then got up and took out a scented sachet from the side.
"My time is too tight, I was unable to make a set of clothes for you. I only made this scented sachet.
"Alright.
" He wished that he could forever brand her into his eyes and hide her deep within his heart.
"Yao`er, I'll get someone to get the Poison Matriarch. With her by your side, I can be at ease.
"
"Yes, you don't have to worry about me, Master. My child and I will wait for your good news in the palace.
"
"Alright.
"
In the afternoon, Mu Yunyao rode in the carriage and left the Battle King's Palace to the Qin Fang Garden.
Senior Qu was instructing someone to lighten the load when she saw Mu Yunyao hurriedly come over with a face full of smiles.
"Princess, would you feel uncomfortable riding in a carriage?
"
"Senior Qu, don't worry. Everything is fine.
" After packing her things, the Grand Princess Yi De didn't delay any further, directly bringing her people with her to the city gates.
