The day before the ambush.
Mu Yanran sat on the warm brick bed and glanced at the warm bar beside her. Her delicate hands were extended to the top, and a pot of tea was being boiled. She poured out a cup and looked at the yellow tea soup before lowering her eyes.
She didn't say anything. She only took a sip. The tea soup was turbid and bitter. Since when had she tasted such coarse tea? Naturally, she would not swallow it.
It was not easy to have a hot bed in a felt room.
At this moment, Mu Yanran was not the only one in the room. There was someone else in the room.
Mu Yanran raised her eyes to look at this person.
He wore the accessories worn by the imperial servants of the Northern Kingdom. It was obvious that he held a high status within the imperial palace of the Northern Kingdom.
He turned his head to look at Mu Yanran. The Great Qin Empire's women were indeed more delicate and exquisite than the Northern countries' women that grew up in rain, rain, and snow. Their skin was white and smooth, and their charm was innate.
He raised his eyebrows and turned his eyes. They were all filled with elegance.
Even the frown was very pretty.
"Seventh Prince." Mu Yanran's smile contained a hint of shyness as she looked at the person in front of her with a hint of charm.
He kept his gaze on her. Men!
Even Kunlun Academy's Elder Huo couldn't escape her grasp, much less someone who had lived in such a desolate place for a long time, like the Northern Kingdom. Even if he was as noble as a prince.
"Why, aren't you used to drinking this tea? This is my Northern Kingdom's best tea. I specially got someone to dig three feet out of the ground to take out the brewed, snow-white tea. " This was what he thought was the best, but in Mu Yanran's eyes …
She looked at the pot carefully, then at the green tea that had been boiled to a ripe state.
In his heart, he felt that this was a complete waste of the treasure.
How could this be how the tea was brewed?
He even used the deep snow water to melt it and cook it. It was indeed an elegant but inappropriate dish.
She laughed. "The tea is good, the water is good." "It's just that the method is wrong." She then got off the brick bed and attached herself to the stove. She poured the tea from the pot into the pot and washed it clean. Then, she boiled the water and brewed some tea. After she passed by, the aroma of the tea immediately filled the room.
A strange light appeared in the seventh prince's eyes. "This tea can actually be like this." "The way I drank it in the past is truly a waste." This woman truly had a Seven Apertures Mystical Heart.
The scene of her washing her hands and making tea was more like watching a beautiful painting that came out of the bath. It was breathtakingly beautiful.
Mu Yanran poured out a rainbow from the pot and poured it straight into the cup. She held the cup with both hands in front of the seventh prince and said, "Please."
Seventh Prince reached out his hand and took the cup. His fingers seemingly unintentionally touched the skin on her hand, and there was a trace of a coquettish smile on his face.
At Mu Yanran's side, a coquettish smile appeared. He watched as Tang Wulin drank the tea.
How could he sense the true taste in his mouth when there was color in his eyes?
He could only feel the entire room filled with fragrance, but he did not know which of the two was more fragrant.
The Seventh Prince stared fixedly at Mu Yanran, and Mu Yanran also stared back with a smile.
She really did not expect that she was originally following Mu Wan in secret, and had even smoothly guided Ye Wen in the opposite direction.
And then she followed him.
She definitely didn't want to protect Mu Wan, but wanted to see if there was a good opportunity to remove Mu Wan and let her restore the Mu family's prestige.
However, she did not expect that Huyan would take Mu Yunji and take another dangerous route.
Along the way, they encountered a huge blizzard.
Mu Wan and his group were well-equipped, but it was still alright.
As for Mu Yanran, she was on her way alone. When she came across the snowstorm, she got lost. She was cold and hungry, so she fainted on the snowy road.
She was saved by the Seventh Prince who passed by here, and was then rescued back to her tent. At this moment, she had just woken up, and after hearing his identity, she already had a plan in her heart.
If an ordinary woman was accidentally saved, she would only be able to wake up and let him leave on his own.
However, because Mu Yanran had a pretty face, she was favored by the Seventh Prince.
Not only did he see her bring him to his own yurt, but he also saw her being waited upon.
Prince Xilongmeng asked her what her name was. "How did she faint in this world of ice and snow?"
She could tell at a glance that she was a southern girl from the Great Qin Empire. What was a weak girl like her doing in the Northern Kingdom? Although the Seventh Prince favored her beauty, he was no mediocre person.
My father originally wanted to go with my family to the northern borders to do some business and earn a living. However, he did not expect to encounter a blizzard halfway through, because we are from the south. The blizzard in the north is truly severe, and my family members died because of it, leaving me behind.
She wouldn't tell others her true identity, so she faked a fake name and background. After all, there weren't many people who knew that Mu Yanran had come with him to the Northern Kingdom.
When she spoke of her sadness, she even squeezed out a few drops of sparkling tears.
"I don't know where to go, but I fainted on the way. It's a good thing that Seventh Prince saved me, otherwise …"
She looked so pitiful that it was as if raindrops were falling on her face. Seeing this, Yuerongmeng's heart moved, and he took the chance to hug Mu Wanyun and comforted her in a soft voice.
Every year, there would be many people from the Great Qin Empire that went to the border to sell their goods. This was a common occurrence. Therefore, he also believed Mu Wan's words.
Such a lady without any roots and no ducks was the most wonderful. She made a good cup of tea, and was so beautiful and fragrant. If she took in someone close to her, she would not have to live the long night.
"I wonder, Seventh Prince, where is this place?"
Now that he had a heart to take her in as one of his own, he felt less afraid of her.
"This is the Northern Kingdom, but if we go any further, we will see the Northern Kingdom's forbidden area."
The moment the forbidden zone was mentioned, Mu Yanran's heart began to stir.
If her prediction was correct, Mu Yanran should also be heading in that direction.
"How long have I been unconscious?"
"It shouldn't be long. If you faint in the snow for more than two hours, you will be frozen into ice. This King only saved you four hours ago."
There were a total of six hours, which meant that Mu Wan wouldn't be able to go far now.
At this moment, a servant came in to report. Your Royal Highness. "
"Come in."
After his subordinates came in and performed a ceremony unique to the Northern Kingdom, he saw that his master was not afraid of the Qin Dynasty woman, so he said, "The scouts are back. They said that group of people have gone northwest. They probably want to go through the cedar forest and into the main city."
Mu Yanran pretended not to understand and continued to make tea for Yuerong Zomeng.
"Did you see it clearly?" "No," she said.
The subordinate shook his head, "The blizzard is too heavy, and many traces were buried. It's just that there's one more person in Huyan's team, it's just that I'm not sure if it's him."
Mu Yanran understood that these people also followed Mu Wan and let him go. However, they weren't clear about it as Mu Yun had already let that person go long ago. If they wanted to kill that person, she could use them to deal with Mu Wan secretly.
She also knew that the constant conflicts between the royal families of the Northern Kingdom were fighting over the throne.
Seeing that Yuren Zuomeng seemed to be hesitating, she suddenly scolded him softly.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
Mu Yanran smiled lightly, "Look at how clumsy I am. I've already poured some of the tea leaves into the cup."
He followed her hand and only saw the faint green and clear tea within the white porcelain cup. However, there really was a piece of tea floating within the cup.
In fact, this was not a big problem.
"It doesn't matter." He had never had tea like this before, so he naturally felt that some of the frothy leaves didn't matter. Before the Northern Kingdom learned that this thing was called tea and was used to make water, they used this tea to make food. It tasted horrible.
However, such an unpalatable thing, under the hands of this southern woman that was growing flowers, was actually incomparably clear and cold.
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, but was opened by Mu Yanran.
"How can I do that? Since the droplets have entered, this cup of tea is filthy. You can't drink it anymore."
"Then what should we do?"
"Naturally, it fell." Mu Yanran had a faint smile on her face as she poured out the tea in the cup, "Let me brew another cup for you."
Her voice was melodious and melodious, especially pleasant to the ears. However, every word that she spoke had a strange quality to it.
Yu Lenzo Meng slapped her thigh and said, "That's right!" Since he couldn't tell who it was, he might as well kill them all! They would rather kill by mistake than let it go. If Renzo Hawk were to return to Dajun, then he would have another strong competitor.
Yu Ren Zongmeng was overjoyed. She embraced Mu Yanran and savored the scent on her cheeks, "Good lord, you are really this king's lucky man!"
"Pass down the order …"
Hearing the instructions from Yuelun Zuomeng, the corner of Mu Yanran's mouth raised into a pretty curve. A smile spread from the corner of her mouth to the corners of her eyes.
She lifted a cup of tea with her white and delicate hands and carefully savored it. Sure enough, she was in a good mood. The originally unsightly northern tea unexpectedly had a bit of sweetness to it.
No matter what, Mu Wanyun would never have thought that the assassination and ambushing of himself, Huyan and the others were all caused by Mu Yanran.
She unexpectedly fell into a hole in the ground. However, she unexpectedly discovered that there was a man-made ice wall in the depths of this place.
What Huyan did not know was that this was the forbidden area that the Royal Family of the Northern Kingdom had spoken of.
This was a forbidden area that had never been drawn on the map before.
When Huyan had someone take off their belt and tied it together to make a rope to pull Mu Wan up, she actually called out to Huyan to come down and take a look.
Mu Wan Yun wouldn't let him come down for no reason, and when she asked him where he was, Huyan was completely shocked.
After his men had wrapped him in a simple bandage, he descended the rope.
"What did you see?"
Mu Wan Yun pointed to the ice wall in front of them and asked, "Have you heard of anyone that lives here?"
Seeing this, Huyan was also shocked. His face changed and he said: "I have never heard of this place before. Not to mention the people who once lived here. However, there is a rumor in the palace that there is a forbidden area in the Northern Lands, and it is located in the northern direction. But from the looks of it, this is the forbidden zone to the royal family? "
