Yu City wasn't big, but it wasn't small either.
Any movement in the wind and grass could be described as swift.
Not even half a day had passed since Yunshu hanged herself, but the rumor about her being forced to death had already spread. In the streets and alleys, there were all sorts of people walking about. Anyone who passed by would point their fingers at them.
When Yi Xiaoqiao found out about this news, he was eating grapes with the altar that he had just returned from, sitting under the acacia tree in the courtyard.
"Yun Jiao forced Yun Shu to death?" Yi Xiaoqiao was astonished. "This Yun Jiao's combat strength is too strong."
"Princess Yunjiao has always been an unruly and unruly girl with a very big temper. I'm sure she's not going to humiliate Miss Yunshu. Miss Yunshu has a very strong temper. If you can't find her, you're going to hang yourself." The altar had been in the palace for more than ten years, so he had heard some things about the palace.
"That Miss Yunshu is too impetuous." Peach brought up a box of pastries. "The general said that the madam and the altar are having a pleasant chat. Afraid that you two don't have enough to eat, he asked me to send you both a plate of pastries."
Not enough to eat...
Yi Xiaoqiao was embarrassed. "He's raising pigs!"
The altar snickered, "Who's scolding themselves!"
Yi Xiaoqiao was stunned for a moment before reacting. She was the mistress of this general's estate, and everything she ate was given to her by Muyi. If it wasn't for the fact that Muyi was raising her, then wouldn't that mean that Muyi was raising pigs …?
Yi Xiaoqiao was indignant.
It was all Muyi's fault, he had to sleep in her bed yesterday. She didn't dare to sleep the entire night, so she opened her eyes and was sleepy. As a result, she blurrily and blurrily slept through the night.
Peach secretly smiled and comforted, "Madam, you don't have to be sad. Even if you are a pig, Madame is still a little pig."
Puff … The altar really couldn't hold it in.
Yi Xiaoqiao glared at her and then at Peach Blossom. When she saw the two of them laughing, she was neither angry nor happy.
"Speaking of which, the news spread pretty quickly. Yunshu just hanged herself not too long ago, how did it get out already?" One must know that it's the Prince's Mansion. Such shameless news spread way too quickly. " Yi Xiaoqiao stuffed a grape into his mouth nonchalantly and asked curiously, "Are all the people in the mansion so talkative?"
The smiles on their faces slowly faded away, one more serious than the other.
The altar rolled its eyes and said in a low voice, "I remember there is a rule in the house of the prince that you are not allowed to talk about the lord's son. If you talk about the lord's son, you will be punished, and if you do, you will be punished, and your staff will be killed."
Peach shook his head. "Impossible, this is the palace of a prince, isn't it easy to seal your mouth? Could it be that the Duke Palaces neglected this matter? "
Yi Xiaoqiao tilted his head to look at the peach. "Peach, you are becoming more and more innocent. Even if you can't seal it off, it won't be so soon that everyone in the city will know about it."
"Madam, you mean someone intentionally spread the news and spread it?"
Yi Xiaoqiao was leisurely eating grapes as he slowly nodded his head, "Yun Jiao is doomed this time."
Peach had a plan in mind. She thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that they're the same people as before who wanted to kill Madam Ye?"
"It's very possible, because not only do they want to kill me, they also want to frame Yun Jiao."
"No, I have to tell the general. If this gets out of hand, it'll be bad." Peach stomped his foot and ran away.
As they ate, they asked, "Why didn't you stop her? "If you can think of this, how could Muyi not think of it?"
"If she wants to say it, then say it. Why would she stop him? If he thinks of it, then why would I think of it?" Yi Xiaoqiao glared at the altar. "Which side are you on? "Why do I feel that in your eyes, Mu Yi'an is smarter than me?"
Altar spread out his hands. "Isn't that obvious? If he is a general, of course he would be smarter than you! "
Yi Xiaoqiao held her breath, feeling extremely stifled. "You …" Give me back my dessert. "
"This snack was given by Mu Yi'an, why do I have to return it to you!" He stuffed the stone into his mouth in three bites and chewed on it a lot, swallowing half of it whole.
Yi Xiaoqiao was stunned. She was just joking.
Altar's eyes lit up: "Oh, right, haven't you been sleeping with Muyi for the past few days? Is the good thing done? How is he? "
Her mouth was full of food, and when she opened her mouth, the dregs flew everywhere.
Yi Xiaoqiao hid. "What do you mean what do you think?"
The altar wiped its mouth and asked excitedly, "How is it in that aspect? Mu Yi'an is tall and handsome, that aspect should also be pretty strong, right? "
Yi Xiaoqiao's face immediately flushed red to her ears. What did she mean by 'that aspect' was pretty strong. How could she know that she and Muyi were not real husband and wife …
However, when she woke up in the morning, she did indeed feel something pressing against her. At that time, she discovered that she was lying in Muyi's embrace, and the red silk that was used to make the cutting line was also gone. Her mind was a mess, and she didn't notice what it was for a moment, but now that she thought about it, could it be that it was his …
The altar poked her red-hot little face. "Tsk! Tsk! The heart of spring is moving …"
Yi Xiaoqiao covered her face. "What nonsense are you talking about!"
The altar laughed, and its eyes flashed with a hint of amusement.
Yi Xiaoqiao glared at her and changed the topic. "Stop talking. You should talk about yourself instead. How are you going to open the inn? Don't let me down!"
"Don't worry, you can go whenever you want. I can guarantee that you'll be able to eat and live there." "I heard that His Majesty originally wanted to reward you to be his concubine, but General Mu was carrying you into the mansion with an eight-handled palanquin. It seems that the general is very interested in you, so you have to hurry. If you get pregnant early, give birth to two more, then we'll completely tie up the general's heart."
Want to change the subject from her? Hehe, it doesn't exist!
Yi Xiaoqiao was exasperated as he glared at her. "Superficially!"
"How superficial? "I'm speaking the truth. If you can't capture the general's heart, be careful of him …"
"Who told you that having a child can hold a man's heart? Your superficial thoughts! "
The altar was stunned. "It's all like this, don't tell me … Isn't that right? "
Yi Xiaoqiao felt the need to teach her a lesson, not to place all her hopes on her children, and not to place all her hopes on men. She said earnestly, "After a woman has a baby, her body changes shape, her heart is broken in order to raise it, speed up her skin aging, she has to be ten years old to give birth to a child. She is old and decrepit, she is lustful and she loves to do so, yet you have already become a yellow-faced grandma. Would you still care for a woman like this?"
Tan Lingyun nervously covered her face and asked, "Are you speaking the truth?"
"So, a woman has to place her hopes on herself. She can't keep thinking about relying on others, she has to rely on herself. Do you understand?"
The altar nodded: "I understand. Women must take care of themselves. I heard that there is an rouge shop in Yu City with rouge and cosmetic powder inside. It is said that it has skin nourishing effects. Why don't we go take a look?"
"Superficially …" Yi Xiaoqiao was dismissive, and turned back to ask after a moment of hesitation, "You can really heal the skin? Can you whiten it? "
Altar laughed, "So you are shallow too!"
As the two of them were arguing, Peaches ran back. She lowered her voice and said, "Miss, it's bad. Princess Yun Jiao has sent someone to look for the general."
The moment the altar heard Yun Jiao's name, it immediately creased its brows. "Why did she send someone over? It's not enough to harm Yun Shu, and you still want to harm the general? "
"It might have something to do with the assassination of the general." Peach carefully looked at Yi Xiaoqiao. "Princess, are you concerned about you?"
"Care?" The altar snorted with laughter. "She sure is magnanimous. We're already separated, why must she still hold on to people?"
Yi Xiaoqiao shook her head. She felt that Peach's words weren't right, mainly because the princess had sent someone to 'care' yesterday, so she couldn't care about it again. She tilted her head and asked, "What did Muyi say?"
"What can you say?" Peach winked at her, indicating that he agreed with her.
This Muyi was truly patient and caring towards Princess Yun Jiao. He was actually willing to see her even after making such a ruckus. Was he really that deep in love? If she used to think that Mu Yi'an was abnormal, then now, Mu Yi'an's heart was big in Yi Xiao Qiao's.
Abnormal!
"Sigh, people always keep thinking about their first love. What they lose is always the best." Yi Xiao Qiao sighed. When she thought about Muyi's ending, she suddenly sympathized with him from the bottom of her heart. Then she thought about her end, which made her sympathize even more!
She was the most innocent person!
Why did you pull her into the water!?
Yi Xiaoqiao rubbed his throbbing forehead and weakly sighed.
"What's wrong? Yet another look of annoyance appeared on his face. "
Yi Xiaoqiao looked towards the direction of the voice and saw Muyi slowly walking over from the other side of the path.
There was a faintly discernible smile on his lips, and when his gaze fell upon her body, there was a faint light.
Yi Xiaoqiao glared at him ruefully. He thought to himself, "If you want to die, can you not bring me along? I don't want to die."
Altar and peaches were the most discerning people. Seeing Mu Yi An walk over, the two of them stood up at the same time.
"We still have things to do, so we'll be leaving first." The altar grabbed onto Peach's hand and said, "Let's go. Let's go take a look to see if there's any new dishes in Yu City's tavern. We're going to steal some teachers!"
Yi Xiaoqiao glared at the two shameless guys and turned away from Muyi. Thinking about his miserable ending, Yi Xiaoqiao felt annoyed. Even more annoyed was that he was actually powerless to change it.
"What is it? The pastries I sent you are not tasty? " Mu Yi An asked with a smile. He pinched a piece and tasted it, frowning: "It seems a little too sweet."
"Didn't you want to go see Princess Yun Jiao? What are you doing here! " Yi Xiaoqiao glared at him. "Oh right, there have been people peeking at you these past few nights. That's why I'm following you …" "That's just a temporary measure, you can't come back here today, we have agreed that when we are loving each other, carrying others on our backs, we will not disturb each other, and you can't always come to my garden!"
"Kind as a donkey's liver!" Mu Yi'an really couldn't stand her heartless attitude. She didn't use her brain to think, this was the general's manor, everyone acted based on his expression, if he rolled his eyes at Yi Xiaoqiao, how much color would others secretly give her?
"Alright, stop rolling your eyes, little ingrate!" Mu Yi An pinched her little face: "The reason I came to find you was to take you to be a loving couple."
Yi Xiaoqiao was stunned. He was a loving couple again? Haven't you done enough for a few nights?
If he wanted her to act like that when he was sleeping, she would have to shout until her voice turned hoarse!
Yi Xiaoqiao glared at him in grief. Suddenly, she understood the meaning behind his words. With an ugly expression, she asked, "You're not going to bring me to see Yun Jiao, are you?"
