nChapter 101 – Ghost in the Bamboo Garden

nSeeing this, Qiu Xiang continued, “Second Miss, the Empress has been looking for you for many years. She only wishes to reunite with you …”

nYue’er soullessly turned around and walked towards the direction of the Orchid Garden, reminding Qiu Xiang, “Let me be alone for a while, don’t disturb me.”

nSeeing that the mission was completed, Qiu Xiang nodded and left General Mo’s residence.

nThree days later, Mo Xie was walking on the streets of Ming You Country with Yue’er and Wan Qing in tow, picking out all kinds of rouge and cosmetic powder. Looking at the box in front of him, Mo Xie felt a sense of novelty as he picked up a box and handed it to Yue’er, who was lost in thought.

n

n

n“Hey, Yue Er, this is for you. Try it, I feel that this taste suits you.”

nSeeing that Yue’er did not react, Mo Liu reminded her again,

n“Yue Er? “Yue Er?”

n“Yes.” Miss, you called me. ”

n

n

n“What’s going on with you these days, you’re always in a daze for no reason.” Are you unhappy because I’m getting married? ”

nHearing Mo Li’s teasing words, Yue’er hurriedly shook her head and gave an explanation.

n“No, no, Miss. I was just wondering if Second Aunt would cause trouble if we came out for so long.”

n“What trouble is she looking for!” I reckon that one Mo Li in these two days would be enough for her to endure. ”

nWhen he thought of the howls and howls of the people in General Mo’s mansion these past few nights, Mo Li’s heart was filled with joy.

nAfter she entered General Mo’s residence, she chased Mo Li out of the Orchid Garden, forcing her to live in her sister Mo Lian’s bamboo garden.

n

n

nIt was just that she did not expect Mo Li to cause a ruckus in the Bamboo Garden on the night she was moved in. She shouted out Mo Yan’s name in the middle of the night as she danced in the lounge.

nThis scene scared Li Rong silly. She originally wanted to temporarily bring Mo Li into her own bedroom, but who knew that Mo Li would actually cry and say that Mo Yan didn’t agree.

nThe ruckus gave Mo Li a chance to come out and play.

nLi Rong was too busy taking care of Mo Li to care for them.

nWhen he came back to his senses, Mo Li looked at Yue’er and Wan Qing with his eyes wide open, reminding them,

n“You guys can also take a look around here. Whoever you like, just take it. Today, I’ll treat you.”

nYue’er and Wan Qing refused at the same time.

n“This servant dares not.”

n

n

nSeeing this, Mo Long quickly picked out a few boxes from the inside, and passed the two most beautiful ones to Yue Er and Wan Qing.

n“Alright, take it. You are not allowed to refuse! Otherwise, I won’t be happy. ”

nThe two men took the rouge from Mo Xie, and looked at each other with eyes full of gratitude. Even Wan Qing was moved by Mo Xie’s actions.

nShe had followed her master for so many years, killing others and even being cold-blooded to the point that she wouldn’t show mercy even if she saw a baby.

nBut these days she had followed Mo Long, she had seen in her a sense of righteousness, positive, bright, lively, kind, without conflict, without deceit, she was just like the sun, illuminating the gray sky and warming the cold heart.

nWhen he came back to his senses, Mo Li had already gone to the stall next door to pick out some jewelry.

nYue’er looked at Wan Qing and said with a smile,

n“Were you moved by the young mistress?”

nNoticing that Wan Qing was silent, she smiled and said,

n“Ever since the Miss woke up from the poison, she seemed to have become a different person. She became smarter, gentler, and more casual. She became even more powerful than she used to be.”

n

n

nWan Qing looked at Yue’er curiously. “You mean, Miss was poisoned and changed after she woke up?”

n“Yeah, she became completely different from before. At that time, I almost didn’t know Miss.”

nWan Qing thought about what Yue Er said. She actually came back to life after being poisoned. Not only did she come back to life, she became smarter than before. How was that possible?

nSuddenly, Wan Qing opened her eyes wide and looked at Mo Li, who was standing not far from them. She thought to herself, “Could it be that this woman is not Mo Li?”

nVery quickly, she rejected this idea. If it wasn’t for that, her master would have definitely noticed something strange!

nNoticing Wan Qing was lost in thought, Yue’er waved her hand in front of her eyes. “Wan Qing, hey, let’s go. Miss seems to be heading for the ‘brief moment’.”

nWan Qing smiled at Yue’er and they chased after her.

nAt noon, in Jing King Manor, the butler was covered in dust as he ordered the servants to return to the manor in an orderly manner.

n“Take down the lanterns! That plaque is a bit more to the left, right, right … ”

nHelian Yi stood by the window and observed what was happening outside. He asked Wushang, who was behind him,

n“How are the preparations for the wedding dress?”

nWushang was startled for a moment before hurriedly replying,

n“The embroidery lady has rushed the production all night long. She can turn in the production tomorrow night.”

n“What about the gift?”

n“Reporting to Your Highness, the gift money is already prepared…”

nWushang had never seen his master lose control like this. Just in these two days, he had already asked him about numerous matters regarding wedding gowns and gifts.

nHelian Yi didn’t know why, but the closer they got to the wedding date, the more nervous he became.

n

n

nHowever, when he thought of the things he had to do today, he dispelled that thought.

nLooking at the vermilion light in the manor, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up. If his woman saw such a beautiful scene, she would definitely like it!

nHis eyes filled with a pampering look, Helian Yi warned Wushang to retreat. He stayed in the study alone for a while before he left Jing King Manor and got on the carriage to rush to the imperial palace.

nThe good news was that he should have told his mother that even though she denied their marriage, she was still his most respected mother concubine.

nAfter arriving at the Imperial Palace, he walked all the way to the desolate cold palace. Helian Yi looked at the closed doors and strode forward. He pushed open the doors and walked in.

nAs usual, Mu Ziyan was standing in the yard, pruning flowers and plants. As soon as she heard movement at the door, she knew that her son had arrived.

nResisting his tears, he turned his head to look at Helian Yi and said with a smile, “Why is Yi’er free to come today?”

n“This son came to visit mufei and tell mufei something.”

nMu Ziyan was startled. She walked forward and held Helian Yi’s hand as they sat on the rattan chair. After a long time, she suddenly opened her mouth.

n“I hear that you and Mo Li are going to be married on the second day of the next month?”

nHelian Yi nodded. With a low and deep voice, he said, “Yes.”

nMu Ziyan’s face suddenly darkened, “Yi’er, can’t you just listen to mufei’s advice. You can’t marry that woman! ”

n“Why can’t I? I love her!”

nAs soon as his voice fell, even Helian Yi himself was surprised that he would say such words. Subconsciously, he loved her!

nHe tightly clenched his fist and silently sat by the side.

nMu Ziyan’s heart clenched tightly. Helian Yi was her son, and knew her son like no mother. Since he could say such words, he must have fallen in love with Mo Xie!

nBut how could they be together? They were siblings!

nShe took a deep breath and advised sincerely, “Yi Er, mufei knows that you have fallen in love with that little girl, but there are so many girls in this world. You haven’t seen them before, so how can you be certain that the little girl is your good friend? Isn’t the first young miss of Prime Minister Luo’s estate Luo Rong good? “
