In the capital, in Mu Mansion, there is a well-known, arrogant and domineering eldest lady, Mu Xiyue.
Rumor has it that whoever offends her will be offended by the living king of hell, and will surely have no peace, as if he is in hell.
"Miss, today is my birthday, are you sure you don't want to attend?"
"What's there to go to? He's still clean without me, and I'm too lazy to offend the old man."
Bai Ye pursed his lips. After following the eldest lady for so many years, he naturally wouldn't be surprised by what she said.
"But...Miss, your outfit..."
Mu Xiyue looked back at her and twitched her chin: "How is it? Is this young master handsome?"
"Jun, the graceful Yushu Linfeng, young lady... Young Master, today is also my birthday after all..."
As Mu Xiyue's eyes changed, Bai Ye's voice became smaller and smaller.
"He's celebrating his birthday, and I will be my romantic son. We won't delay each other, and I won't talk nonsense to you. I won't be able to leave when my eldest brother and grandma come."
God didn't hear Bai Ye's prayer in his heart: "Then come quickly!"
In a blink of an eye, the eldest lady was gone.
I have to say, today is really a very special day.
"Hey, stop arguing, stop arguing, Brother Hua is here!"
"Brother Hua!"
"Brother Hua, you're here!"
Mu Xiyue pushed aside the people who were surrounding her, grabbed a chair and sat down.
"I heard you guys arguing over there from a long way away, what are you doing?"
One of the men said: "Hey, isn't this the gambler surnamed Li who owes money and refuses to pay it back? The man surnamed Li stole the silver and ran into debt, so he came here just because he knew some light kung fu.
He ran away, but now there is really nothing we can do to him."
"Hey, that's right, Brother Hua, you are the biggest banker in our casino. Now that you are here, you can give us some advice and let this little brat act so wildly on our territory!"
Mu Xiyue waved her hands irritably: "Okay, didn't I say this before? I haven't forgotten it. There's no need to repeat it. Do you know where he is now?"
"I found it. I was pushing cards with a few people at Yuanhai Street."
In view of the precedents of finding people but not being able to capture them, we have chosen to stay put for now.
"Let's go and see him."
When Mu Xiyue arrived, she didn't recognize the person she was looking for for a while. It wasn't until the person next to her kicked over the gambling table and yelled at someone that Mu Xiyue finally locked onto the person.
His appearance was not very outstanding, but he was quite clever. Mu Xiyue secretly looked around.
This is not a casino, but a courtyard extending in all directions. This kid probably knows that he is being chased for debts all over the world, and relying on his some light skills, not to mention, he can find a way out for himself.
"What are you doing? Do you know where this place is!"
"You bastards, this matter has nothing to do with you, Li Dazhou, let me see where you can run today!"
Several friends around Li Dazhou looked at each other in shock, and suddenly they all made a move to pounce on them. Mu Xiyue drew out her whip and hit them with one blow, causing several of them to fall to the ground and unable to stand up.
Li Dazhou saw that something was not going well and was about to run away again. How could Mu Xiyue let him succeed? He swung the whip away, but he didn't expect that Cheng Yaojin would appear halfway.
Mu Xiyue raised her head, looked at the person who grabbed her whip, and frowned.
"Girl, it's not a good idea to bully others like this, right?"
"Who did you call girl?"
Li Yanchen smiled slowly: "I'm sorry, I'm a young master. It's not good to bully others like this, right?"
Li Dazhou, who was lying on the side and covering his legs, was held up and tied up.
Mu Xiyue put away the whip and sneered: "Isn't it bad for you to bully others like this?"
She could see clearly just now that the stone hit Li Dazhou's leg joint.
Li Yanchen smiled and said nothing.
"Bring people back."
After everyone left, Mu Xiyue sat down and looked at Li Yanchen.
"Second Prince, are you very free?"
"Today is not your father's birthday, why did you come out?"
Mu Xiyue sneered: "How many days have you known me?"
Li Yanchen shrugged: "Okay, you've always been like this, Xiyue..."
"I would also like to congratulate you," Mu Xiyue interrupted what he was about to say, raised her eyes and said, "Your Highness."
Li Yanchen frowned slightly: "You don't have to call me that. Just call me Yan Chen like before, okay?"
"No, no, I don't dare. The emperor's health is getting worse and worse, and your limbs have been almost destroyed. Now the throne belongs to you, how can I dare..."
"Xiyue!" Li Yanchen couldn't listen anymore and looked at her with some hurt, "Does it have to be like this? Do we really have to draw such a clear line between you and me?"
Mu Xiyue frowned: "What's going on between us? Has His Highness the Crown Prince misunderstood something?"
"My heart pleases you."
"Really?" Mu Xiyue smiled after hearing this and stood up to look at him, "I am the one who is happy and the one I love is the Crown Princess?"
"That's just the marriage given by my father. I have no feelings for her, you know!"
"I don't know. Your Royal Highness, your status is too high for me, Hua Xiyue, so there is no need to have any interactions with you in the future."
Mu Xiyue's mother originally only wanted to be with the man she loved for the rest of her life, but the man was too carefree and was unable to achieve her wish. She was betrayed, a life of sorrow, because her mother had learned from the past, so Mu Xiyue
I have never believed that men do not believe in promises.
She admitted that she had been attracted to Li Yanchen, but she gave up her thoughts when she learned the man's identity.
"Xiyue, I will definitely marry you. I don't believe that you have no feelings for me at all. I will wait until you untie your knot and accept my heart."
Li Yanchen looked at Mu Xiyue's leaving figure and secretly clenched his fists, his eyes full of possessiveness.
Even if you don't accept it, it doesn't matter. You will always be mine. Whether you want it or not, you will only be mine.
Mu Xiyue returned to Mu Mansion early, and as soon as she entered the room, she was not surprised to see Nanny Zhang.
"The eldest lady is back?"
"Well, mama, I'm back."
"I came back very early today,"
Mu Xiyue smiled: "It's already dark."
Nanny Zhang had no choice but to pull her to sit down. She was not surprised that her ancestor never attended the master's birthday. After all, Nanny Zhang sighed inwardly, "Madam, it's just on this day."
"This is the sweet-scented osmanthus soup I personally made for you. Try it."
Mu Xiyue took a bite and then nodded: "Yeah, it's delicious."
"Hey, your mother loved the sweet-scented osmanthus soup I made the most when she was alive."
Mu Xiyue pursed her lips and continued eating from the bowl.
"But my child, after so many years, let it go. Madam must not want you to do this."
"Mommy," Mu Xiyue smiled and winked at her, "I know."
"Hey, you know how to stall me."
Mu Xiyue held Nanny Zhang and said a lot of words. Nanny Zhang was the old man next to Mu Xiyue's mother, and she was also the one who took care of Mu Xiyue and Mu Lenghan when they grew up.
"The eldest lady has now reached the age of marriage. Does she have someone she likes?"
"Of course not, my vision is so high, few people can catch my eye, right?"
"Haha, that's right. Hey, didn't you tell me before that you are very close to the second prince? The second prince is talented, civilized, Taoist and martial arts proficient in everything. Now he has been appointed as the prince. If you and him...
…”
"Oh, mama!" Mu Xiyue stood up and looked at her dissatisfied, "How can it be possible for the two of us? Just stop messing around with each other."
Aunt Zhang: "You, you, you, you don't like the second prince, then which one can you like?"
"If we knew he was the second prince, we wouldn't even be friends, right?"
Grandma Zhang sighed, and then continued: "Well, okay, okay, the eldest son of the Lin family is also a talented person, his moral character is beyond words, and he is quite interesting to you..."
Mu Xiyue: "..."
What kind of day is today! Can you let her go?
Li Yanchen fell in love with Mu Xiyue at first sight. The first time they met, this young lady was beating someone in the street. He caught him and saw her appearance clearly. He was stunned for a moment.
When he realized what happened, he finally realized it when a whip hit him.
The two of them can be considered to have known each other without fighting, although the last few meetings were still not so good, almost like a fight...
Later, he discovered that this girl often liked to dress up as a man and went out, and found it quite interesting. He would pester her whenever he had the chance, and they became familiar with her over and over again.
Unexpectedly, a palace banquet made her distance herself from herself again.
She had obviously agreed to his confession the day before, but after the palace banquet, it was as if she had changed into a different person and had given up all previous relationships.
Li Yanchen actually knew what kind of woman Mu Xiyue was, and she had also told him about her mother.
If he takes that position in the future, for the sake of stabilizing the imperial court or for some other unavoidable reasons, there will be no telling how many women there will be in the harem.
It was not easy for her to accept this. Li Yanchen knew it. He concealed his identity first and pursued him relentlessly. Now that she saw him, it was like a whip being whipped the next second.
To be honest, Mu Xiyue doesn't dare to go out now because she will meet that annoying person no matter what.
She doesn't understand, is the prince always so idle?
"Miss, someone wants to see you."
"not see."
Bai Ye looked embarrassed: "Yes, His Royal Highness."
Mu Xiyue frowned slightly, and then said: "See you, if you don't go out, go out."
"ah?"
night
Mu Jin: "I heard that you turned His Royal Highness away today?"
Mu Xiyue remained silent.
Mu Jin slapped the table: "I'm asking you something!"
"I'm eating."
"Do you still have the nerve to eat? Shutting His Royal Highness out of the house, Mu Xiyue, Mu Xiyue, you are so brave! Who are you targeting?"
Mu Xiyue put down her chopsticks and looked at him: "My name is Hua Xiyue, why am I so brave? What's wrong with you?"
