By the time Mu Wenyun and Jin Lie returned to the Duke of Jin's mansion, it was already morning of the second day.
Jin Yu Lie had just arrived when he received an important report from the dark guard.
His hand was still on Mu Yun's waist. Now, he discovered that he was even more attached to Mu Wan. And to him, there didn't seem to be anything that could hide from her.
He gave me a look and followed me to the study.
Mu Wan Yun smiled sweetly and shook her head. I'm not going. It's not like you can't handle it yourself, but I need to go and see Ammu. I left him last night, and I don't know if he'll be angry with me. "
Of course she said that, but Jin Yu Lie understood that Mu Wei Yun didn't want to interfere in his business, and furthermore, she wanted to take revenge.
He smoothed her long hair down to her waist and lightly kissed her forehead. He said, "It's just a child's playfulness. Don't be too strict with him." As he spoke, he took out a small and exquisite embroidered box. "Help me give it to Ammu."
"What is it?"
"A little thing he'll like."
As Jin Yu Lie spoke, he followed the dark guard to the study room, while Mu Wan brought the embroidered box to find Amu.
When she gave the embroidered box to Amu, Amu raised his eyebrows in puzzlement. She clearly wanted to tease him, but not only was he not angry, he even gave her something? No matter how you looked at it, it was unscientific.
Holding the brocade box in his hand, he felt somewhat apprehensive. He seriously suspected that the inside of the box contained a terrifying poisonous insect, but upon further examination, he realized that Jin Yu Lie shouldn't be such a bored person. Since Mommy was here, he might as well do it in front of her.
"Mommy, wait, let's see what Daddy is giving me."
Mu Huayun snickered. She could tell what Amu was thinking from his expression. She thought to herself, 'This Jin Yulie is really capable. He's really good when it comes to retaliations.'
She restrained her smile and said, "He gave this to you. I just passed it on to you. Since I've already given it to you, I'll leave first." She acted as if she was about to leave when Amu's heart trembled. He hurriedly jumped down from his chair and pulled on Mu Wan's sleeve. He looked at her pitifully and said, "Mommy, I won't be naughty anymore." You can just watch it with me. "
Mu Wan's words stopped there. She touched Ammu's forehead and then nodded.
The two of them opened the embroidered box.
The embroidered box had barely opened a crack when a bright light flashed from within.
The two of them looked closely and saw that the light was emitted by something that was shaped like a ring. After the light flashed, they could clearly see that the ring was a Dragon Jade Jue that was somewhat abstract.
The jade pendant was crystal clear, the jade was excellent, and the abstract dragon shape also had a special charm. And what was most unbelievable was the dense spiritual energy within the jade.
This was the highest quality spirit source!
Looking around the entire Mystic Moon world, finding a spiritual source on par with it was as difficult as ascending to the heavens!
Even the pigeon egg diamond spirit stone that Chunyu Hong gave Mu Yun earlier was considered the heirloom of the Great Qin Empire. It was priceless, but it was inferior to this dragon jade Jue!
Upon seeing this jade ornament, Amu's eyes immediately lit up. He lovingly held it up to admire it under the sun's rays. As the sunlight passed through the jade ornament, he accidentally cast a dragon-shaped shadow of the jade ornament onto the ground.
The shadow on the ground was actually the shadow of a majestic dragon. This was completely different from the one carved on the jade pendant.
Even Mu Yunji, who had seen a lot of treasures, was amazed. Ammu was overjoyed. The greedy baby's true nature was completely revealed.
He carefully guarded Yu Jue and said with uncertainty, "I played tricks on Father. Not only was he not angry, he even gave me this?"
Mu Wan Yun corrected him, "Wrong. Although you wanted to tease him, but the one suffering is your mother. Don't you think that you should give this thing to me to compensate for your mistake?"
She leaned forward and held out her hand to Ammu, palm open.
Amu's expression changed. It can't be! Are you my mother? He smiled and said, "Mummy is right. Ammu loves Mummy the most! "So, what Ammu wants is Mommy's, but Mommy is very precious, let me keep it for you!" As he said that, he went forward to hug Mu Yunji and gave her a kiss. Then, he quickly jumped away. As she ran, she shouted at Mu Wan, "Mommy, farewell! I'm going to the Snake Garden to take a look."
His voice also alarmed Zuo Chenfeng who was standing outside. Ever since the accident last time, Jin Yu Lie had Zuo Chenfeng follow Amu and also helped him manage the Snake Garden.
"Why are you running?" When Zuo Chenfeng saw Amu flash past like the wind, he was very surprised, as if someone was after him.
"Uncle Zuo, let's go!" Let's go to Snake Garden and stay there! "
"What?" Isn't the safest place the Duke of Jin's estate?
"Snake Garden is safe!"
Within the Great Qin Imperial Palace, a strange atmosphere enveloped everything.
Imperial Concubine Yu was sitting in front of the dressing table in her bedroom. She had an extremely beautiful face and looked like she was in her early thirties.
It could be seen how attractive she was in her early twenties, in her prime. She radiated brilliance in all directions, and was extremely attractive. It could also be blamed, as Chunyu Hong had been favoring her for 20 years, resulting in her transcending position in the imperial palace, such that she didn't even put the empress in her eyes!
Her hair was long and supple, and the maidservant behind her had used a wooden comb carved from the tree's golden silk to comb it. Her jet-black hair flowed back and forth in her yellow-brown wooden brush. This scene was serene and beautiful.
However, the maid's hand suddenly shook and accidentally tugged on Imperial Concubine Yu's scalp until it hurt. She turned to look, only to discover that the maid had a strand of hair in her hand. Seeing that she had discovered it, she still wanted to hide it.
Imperial Concubine Yu said flatly, "Hand it over!"
The maid's expression changed to one of extreme terror as she plopped to her knees. "Empress …"
"Hand it over!" Her voice was harsh.
The servant girl held the thing in her hands nervously. It was a strand of hair, but it was no longer black. Instead, it was white. Empress, spare me! " Servant girl kowtowed and begged for mercy.
Imperial Concubine Yu extended her hand and took the white hair, examining it for a moment. She raised her head to look at herself in the mirror. No matter how well she was maintained, age still left a mark on her body.
She suddenly stood up, grabbed the powder from the dressing table and ruthlessly smashed it on the bronze mirror. The image in the bronze mirror instantly became distorted. She looked at the sinister expression on her face, as if she was burning with anger.
Just six hours ago, she found out the whereabouts of her son!
Then, she fell silent!
After a long time, she was speechless. After bathing and changing her clothes, she even put on makeup and went to Chunyu Hong's royal study to pay respects. A smile blossomed on her face, but there was still a trace of worry in her eyes.
She concealed her feelings well.
While accompanying Chunyu Hong to eat, she even asked Chunyu Hong for a favor, saying that Chunyu Hao had gone crazy somewhere and had disappeared for many days, and hoped that His Majesty would send someone to search for him.
Chunyu Hong's eyes froze. He looked over at her. "You have no news?"
"Earlier, he mentioned Yanran's death and that he would be out for a while. Chenqie thought that since his son has grown up, it's time for him to take care of some matters. However, it's been three months and there's no news at all. No matter what Your Majesty says, Hao'er is still our son in the end. You … "
Chunyu Hong understood what she meant. She hoped that he could mobilize the dark guards, but a long time ago, he received news that Chunyu Hao had died, killed in that great fire three months ago.
Looking at the person nestled by her side, she had accompanied him for more than twenty years and had always served him to her heart's content.
However, he knew the cause and effect of this matter. Jin Yu Lie had killed Chunyu Hao, and in the end, he had brought this upon himself. Facing Jin Yu Lie, he couldn't say anything, but he had forgotten Imperial Concubine Yu who was Chunyu Hao's mother.
He originally wanted to tell her that Chunyu Hao was no longer here and that the fire had burned everything and left behind a lot of bones, but he couldn't tell which one was Chunyu Hao's.
This result was a bit cruel to Imperial Concubine Yu.
Chunyu Hong could only temporarily agree to send more people to search for Chunyu Hao for her.
Imperial Concubine Yu rose gracefully to her knees in thanks.
After leaving the royal study, she returned to her own bedroom. Along the way, all the smiles had frozen into nothing, replaced by an incomparable solemnity.
There was a resentful look in his eyes.
Back in her bedroom, she sat in front of the bronze mirror.
It was only until she saw the white hair in the palace maid's hands that all her emotions were let loose at that instant. She was very strong in her life, but the heavens had only given her one son, the only son. Even if he wasn't intelligent and acted extremely rashly, this was still her only hope.
As long as she was here, she believed that as long as her Yu Clan bloodline was strong backing, she would still be able to live an extremely comfortable life after her son ascended to the throne.
But now, Chunyu Hao was gone, her hope was gone!
This was all done by Jin Yu Lie and Mu Wan Yun!
Her fist slammed into the table, her nails digging into the flesh of the table. Blood trickled out, but she did not feel anything.
She was old, and it was impossible for her to have children again. As a result, she had lost everything …
"Esteemed Empress, your hand …" The maid was so frightened that her face paled when she saw blood trickling out of her palm.
Imperial Concubine Yu didn't mind at all. The only thought in her mind was to pay back the debt of blood!
She wanted to make Jin Yu Lie and Mu Wen Yun suffer the pain that she had to endure!
Everything she had suffered must be repaid a thousand times over!
Imperial Consort Yu took a long time to calm down. She let the maidservants help her tidy up, abandoning her shoulders, and only brought her confidante and palace maid with her as she walked out of her bedroom.
She was wearing a hooded cloak and it was the end of summer. The weather was slightly cold, but it was very soothing. To Imperial Concubine Yu, however, her entire body was cold as if she had fallen into winter!
"Empress, where are you going?" Su Jie asked in a low voice while holding Imperial Concubine Yu's arm.
Imperial Concubine Yu raised her eyes to look at her surroundings. Under the night sky, the imperial palace was exceptionally quiet. However, she wasn't in the mood to enjoy such a beautiful scenery. A flame of vengeance burned in her heart.
A moment later, she said in a cold voice, "To the Queen's Middle Palace!"
