The convoy from the prime minister's residence travelled extremely fast. Two hours later, they arrived at the foot of the mountain. There was still a stretch of mountain road that required them to walk on.

"Yu Ting, there's a pavilion ahead. If you're tired, you can go there to rest for a while."

Mu Yu Ting looked into Yu Qing Wan's eyes and felt the concern in them. She smiled and shook her head, "Mother, daughter is not tired. Let's continue on our way."

Yu Qingye nodded and did not say another word. The atmosphere that had just started to get lively once again became quiet. An extremely awkward feeling surrounded the two of them.

Mu Qianyu followed closely behind Yu Qingniang. She raised her eyes to look at her biological mother, wanting to start a conversation with her. However, she didn't know what to say, so she could only lower her head and silently climb the stairs.

Although the Blue Luan was an outsider, it still felt that there was something wrong between Mu Yuting and Yu Qingye. It couldn't help but start to feel anxious.

It was rare for a young miss to take the initiative to get close to her. She was clearly very concerned about her young mistress, but why couldn't they get along? If he failed this time, then it would be even more difficult!

Soon, the mountain road came to an end. A massive temple gradually appeared in front of everyone. The chanting of Buddhist scriptures could be faintly heard, lingering in the quiet forest.

The prime minister's residence had already greeted the abbot. Therefore, they had already prepared all the things they needed during the ceremony. It was just that the rooms needed for them to stay for the night had not been cleaned.

"Qiao Ting." Yu Qing Wan turned to look at Mu Yu Ting, seeing her uncomfortable actions, and sighed. "You don't need to follow me right now. Go to the temple and take a stroll. I'll send someone to look for you when we're done."

"Yes." Mu Yuting nodded. She understood that Yu Qingye was afraid that she would feel awkward staying by her side, so she felt helpless in her heart.

The relationship between the mother and daughter should have been the closest, but her foolish thoughts and actions from before had created such an awkward situation.

"Miss, I …" The Blue Luan looked at Mu Qiuting with a troubled expression. Logically speaking, she should have gone to clean up the room with the others, but it seemed that she shouldn't have left Mu Qiuting and left her to walk alone in this unfamiliar place.

When Mu Yu Ting saw the Blue Luan frown from its confusion, and the awkward expression on its face, she felt that her appearance was somewhat cute. She chuckled and said, "Go and pack up. This is the temple. I won't have any problems by myself."

Although the Blue Luan was still a little worried, it hesitated for a moment before it finally left to tidy up the room.

Mu Yu Ting looked at this little girl who was turning her head back and forth with a worried expression. She smiled and shook her head, then casually walked down a small path without any goal in mind.

In another compartment, Jiang Chen finally climbed to the top of the mountain with the support of Dongping. Her clothes were a little messy and she looked a little awkward, causing the surrounding people to cast a peculiar gaze at her.

Jiang Chenbi's body was weak to begin with. However, the coachman that she had just hired was not a good driver. He had been bumpy the whole way, and now that he had climbed such a long mountain road, she had lost all her strength.

"Miss, are you alright?" Dong Ping looked at Jiang Chen Bi Bi who was leaning against her body, her face filled with worry. "Why don't I find a room for myself and have a short rest?"

Jiang Chen shook his head slowly. After resting for a few minutes, his pale face started to turn red. "Let's go to the back mountain to meet up with the Crown Prince."

Staring at the entrance of the temple, Jiang Chen's eyes were a little sinister. It was very different from the gentle and gentle image he normally displayed in front of everyone.

The reason why she was in such a sorry state was because of Mu Qiantang. The pain she had just suffered would be reported back soon. Let Mu Yuting know the consequences of provoking her!

From a distance, Jiang Chen saw the Crown Prince standing at the appointed place to meet her. He paced back and forth with an impatient look on his face.

"I didn't expect that you would come so early, your highness."

Hearing Jiang Chen Bi Bi's laughter, the Crown Prince turned around and looked in her direction. A trace of impatience flashed across his face. "Miss Jiang, if you hadn't come, I would have thought that you would have made me empty-handed again."

Jiang Chen recalled his experience at the palace banquet. He clenched his hands tightly and dug his nails into his palms. However, he still had a coquettish smile on his face. "Crown Prince, as long as we work together, we will definitely achieve our goals."

"Oh, what advantage do you have to make me believe you?" The Crown Prince's voice was full of doubts, he glanced at Jiang Chen Bi Bi who was still in the process of tidying up her clothes, and started to approach her.

Seeing the Crown Prince like this, Jiang Chenbi panicked and kept backing away. However, she still tried her best to maintain a smile on her face. "We were close since we were young. My relationship is definitely not ordinary."

She didn't care that he had a relationship with Prince Hua Xin. Even if Han Xiangyuan's status wasn't as high as his, he was still much higher ranked. She wouldn't do something like picking up sesame seeds and throwing away watermelons. It was better to leave the crown prince for Mu Yuting to enjoy.

"But what if it fails?" The Crown Prince's voice was unclear. He pressed Jiang Chen down on the tree trunk and his eyes dimmed, "Then should Miss Jiang make it up to me?"

Jiang Chen thought to himself. His flustered emotions were constantly assaulting her, but he did not show it on his face. "Crown Prince, do you subconsciously think that you will fail this mission?"

"Later I will help you lure her to a corner where no one will be around, and then you can take action and control her. I don't believe that she can escape this time. " Jiang Chen took a step back and used an empty seat behind him to break free from the crown prince's imprisonment.

"What good is it for you to help me?" The Crown Prince didn't go after Jiang Chen. He seemed to be thinking about the plan she proposed.

"Your Highness, your goal is to obtain her while I destroy her. Although they have different goals, their methods are the same, so why don't we cooperate? "

The smile on Jiang Chen's face was exceptionally beautiful, but it sent chills down one's spine.

The crown prince pondered for a moment before smiling, "However, the plan you mentioned earlier is too vague. There are still many details that have yet to be decided. Wouldn't this be taking a huge risk? "

Jiang Chenbi knew that he was agreeing to work with her, "That won't be difficult. We just need to discuss it and we can come up with a detailed plan."

The two of them discussed for a while longer before they deployed all the detailed plans and carried them out according to their respective arrangements.

Jiang Chen walked out of the back of the mountain to search for traces of Mu Qiantang. A sinister look flashed in her eyes, as if victory was in her hands.

When she had a relationship with a man in the quiet and peaceful Buddhist lands, her reputation as a defiler of the holy land was already enough to ruin her reputation.

She wanted to see how much ability this Mu Qiantang had to escape this calamity.
