Chapter 4 - Muse Difficulties

Soft Luo incense, elegant and fresh.

A faint sandalwood fragrance filled the room. Dots of sunlight shot out from the carved window and fell onto the dressing table at the side.

A beautiful woman sat in front of the dressing table. She was wearing a long green dress with a thin silver veil covering her body, and her loose black hair was tied up a bit. The rest of her hair was tied up a bit, while a small droplet shaped purple gem hung in front of her forehead, adorning it perfectly.

Wen Meng gazed at the person in the copper mirror as her delicate hands held onto the red piece of cloth and placed it onto her lips.

"Miss, your servant found out about it." A woman dressed in a light green servant's attire ran into the room. After bowing to the person at the dressing table, she walked up and whispered into his ear, "The master of ceremonies did not consummate the room with the new wife last night. He has left the house very early today."

Wen Meng took the red card, and her lips curled up.

She had been in the palace for many years, and her zither skills were deeply beloved by the prime minister. The two of them often played the zither and drank in the lonely night, looking very unrestrained.

Although she didn't have any status, no one in the Prime Minister's Estate was allowed to call her 'lady' so she could take care of all the matters in the mansion. In the eyes of the servants, she was already half a master.

So what if the prime minister married his wife? She was just a woman who had been ordered to marry. She had neither formally paid respects to the hall nor consummated her marriage. She had only an empty front.

Wen Meng raised his hand, and this servant immediately moved his hand to her hand, to support her, "Miss, what should we do?"

"Cut the crap." Wen Meng reprimanded the servant with a smile, and then sighed, "Master Xiang, seriously, letting the bride stay in her room alone on the wedding night, you want to let people know where to put the face of the mistress?"

When the servant heard this, her eyebrows raised in joy. She quickly replied, "This servant knows what to do now?"

Wen Meng nodded her head in satisfaction, not forgetting to remind him: "Xiao Cui, be careful when you do this, don't let anyone find out anything."

"Miss, don't worry. The new Madam's infamous reputation is widespread. There are many people in the mansion who are afraid of suffering. If you reveal even a little bit, we'll just wait to see a good show." Xiao Cui supported them on the soft bed and called two servants in to serve them. She went to the kitchen to get her own food.

Green Pine Academy, Cloud Water Pavilion.

Chun Hua who was going to grab the food, angrily returned with the food box.

"You're so angry, who dares to provoke you?" Yun Qianliang supported her head with one hand, while she was dozing on the table, listening to the heavy footsteps. Before she even opened her eyes, she could guess that Chun Hua was extremely angry, and was extremely angry.

"Miss, Gu …" Just as Chun Hua was about to speak, she was interrupted.

"Pay attention to the address, don't let anyone find the wrong person." Yun Qianliang opened her eyes and straightened her body.

Chun Hua curled her lips in frustration. She was unwilling to change his words, but because her master had spoken, she could only change his words.

"Madam." Chun Hua shouted unwillingly, and was no longer in a hurry to complain. She opened the food box and took out the three dishes and the soup, and placed them on the painted round table, and then placed a bowl of hard night meal in front of Yun Qianliang, "Madam, your food is ready."

Yun Qianliang stared at the charred bowl of rice in front of him, used her chopsticks to poke at it, and looked at the so called three dishes and one soup.

"Shoot the cucumber, cook with water …" "Tomato, stir-fry …" Yun Qianliang looked at the three dishes, and at the last plate of green and black dishes, he did not know the name, so she reached his hands into the bowl of soup and took out the three yellow vegetables, "Gu Xiangfu is like this … Thrift? "

Other than that, the only thing Yun Qianliang could do was to call the meal a bit shabby.

"Where is the economy? There is no shortage of chicken, duck and fish in the kitchen. Chun Hua pouted and complained, deliberately wanting to provoke his master's temper, "I will not get back at you, you are an idle person in Gu Xiangfu, a person that does not raise idle people."

Although the young miss had learned to be patient and be reasonable, Chun Hua still hoped that the young master had a bit of temper, so that he wouldn't be bullied by others.

After suffering such grievances yesterday, she truly hoped that her master would be able to vent them out, lest she suffocate to death.

"He doesn't raise idle people." Yun Qianliang put down her chopsticks, waved her hand, ordering her men to take away the bowl of burnt food.

Yun Qianliang stood up and walked to the door, and silently looked at the flower blooming in the courtyard.

Qiu Yue cleaned up the room and walked out. Seeing the dishes on the table, she thought that Master was in a bad mood and had no appetite.

"Madam, your body is yours. Please eat some." Qiu Yue advised.

Chun Hua gave Qiu Yue a meaningful look, and Qiu Yue walked in to see the food. She frowned, and pointed to the food on the table.

Yun Qianliang pondered for a long time and finally came to a decision.

Yun Qianliang waved to the two servants, and when the two came closer, she whispered: "I buried my husband's body under the flower bush where Yao Huang was planted."

Qiu Yue was shocked, her entire body shivering violently.

"I'm talking about the chicken." Yun Qianliang knocked Qiu Yue on the head, and continued to speak: "Yesterday night, an assassin came and killed it, I was worried that the people from the Prime Minister's residence would find out, and bury the body before daybreak."

"You did the right thing. If the people from the Prime Minister's Estate knew about this, they would have definitely spread it to you." Chun Hua also lowered her voice and spoke.

"The corpse will stink if it is left behind for a long time. On the contrary, it's easy for people to find it." Yun Qianliang raised her eyebrows at the two of them, seeing that they did not understand what she meant, she said unhappily: "So one of you went out to guard, the other went to dig out the chicken, and used the Green Pine Academy's kitchen to cook it for me."

"Madam, you said yesterday that you had a relationship with that rooster, and today you plan to eat it?" Qiu Yue asked innocently.

"Its best fate is to become a part of me, which is even more so." Yun Qianliang urged, "Hurry up."

You just want meat.

Chun Hua and Qiu Yue immediately walked out to the designated location to dig out the rooster that had just been buried.

Yun Qianliang sat on the doorstep of the Cloud Water Pavilion and waited, the thoughts in her head gradually flying further and further away.

Although Gu Yicheng was a scoundrel, he was a gentle and refined person. There were many singers and dancers in the palace, and Xiu Mu Ri did not like to go to the flowery streets and alleyways. She only went to the manor to sing poems and fight with the house-raised singers and dancers, and chat about zither, chess and painting.

However, she did not expect that in Gu Xiangfu, the status of a muse was actually better than her, the emperor's concubine, who was officially married into the family.

The host eats the veggie dish, but the muse who can't afford to serve the table is like a big fish and big meat. Such a good rule of not raising idle people!

For three days in a row, not only did Cloud Water Pavilion's food not improve, on the contrary, because on the day Gu Yicheng returned to his home, he did not return to the capital, and she did not return to her house alone, her food became worse.

In the past, it was just a cold meal with some shabby dishes added on top.

After that day, the food sent to the Cloud Water Pavilion was filled with a rancid taste, so much so that it could not be eaten.

"It seems that I have no choice but to beat him up."
