As this was a private trip, Mu Chuyang and Wu Shan were riding on their mounts, while Duan Yunfei, Zuo Yuan and Xiao Yang were riding in the carriage from the Zuo Xiang Fu to the garden.
When he mentioned Mu Chuyang's mount, two months ago, Mu Chuyang had hurriedly gone to the palace to find Duan Yunfei. But when he left the palace, the dispirited Mu Chuyang had completely forgotten about his mount. Soon after, Mu Chuyang fell into a serious illness and stayed in Prince Mu to recuperate for half a month. It was only when he followed Prince's Wife Mo out of the house one day and saw a passerby riding a horse that he remembered his forgotten mount.
That day, the palace guard on duty had wanted to send Mu Chuyang's mount back to the Prince Mu's Mansion, but unfortunately, on the second day, he was sent to Jiangnan to participate in disaster relief efforts, which delayed this matter. Fortunately, Mu Chuyang wasn't able to use his mount during this period of time.
After Mu Chuyang thought about this matter, he went to the palace door to ask around. However, he received the news that the guard had been sent to Jiangnan, so Mu Chuyang could only wait for an entire half a month.
"Chu Yang, why do I feel like your horse has become thinner? Could he be sick like you? " On the way, Wu Shan felt bored and started teasing Mu Chuyang.
Wu Shan knew how much Mu Chuyang treasured his horse. This horse had followed what Mu Chuyang had said for almost five years. Back then, Yuwen Di had bestowed this horse to Mu Chuyang, and Wu Shan was even jealous for a long time. One had to know that it was the best Ferghana Horse in the Western Regions. It could be said that it was something every soldier who marched to war wished for.
"Sigh, this is quite a long story. It has truly been difficult for me. I must have had a terrible meal in the past half month. Looking at it makes my heart ache."
Mu Chuyang's heartache was real. One had to know that when he saw his precious horse lose a lot of weight in a short span of half a month, it definitely did not taste the best food that he had prepared for it in the Prince Mu's Mansion during this half a month.
While talking, Mu Chuyang felt that something was not right, why did he suddenly start to talk about mounts, the most important thing today was to repair the relationship between him and Duan Yunfei.
"Wu Shan, do you think Yun Fei can forgive me today?"
Actually, Mu Chuyang was not wrong, it was just that he felt that his reckless confession and rejection of Yuwen Di's kind intentions for the sake of getting angry with him over the freight. During this period of time, his various actions had completely upturned Duan Yun's originally peaceful life upside down.
When he saw Duan Yunfei in the House of Zuo just now, Mu Chuyang had sensed that the freight was intentionally or unintentionally distant from him.
Wu Shan didn't know how to answer Mu Chuyang, he only felt that it was difficult to predict whether or not this matter would develop in the direction that they had hoped for.
Forget about whether Duan Yunfei and Mu Chuyang would be able to get back on track again, the current freight rate was probably still blaming Zuo Yuan for joining hands with Xiao Yang to hide this matter from her. To make progress between and the freight, the most important thing was to stop Duan Yunfei from living together with him.
"This depends on the will of heaven. However, Chu Yang, you don't have to worry too much.
Wu Shan patted Mu Chuyang's shoulder, hoping that it would give Mu Chuyang some courage.
"Thanks, brother. If this is a success, I will definitely thank you and Zuo Yuanyuan when the time comes."
Mu Chuyang had guessed that tonight would not be going smoothly, but he still had to thank Wu Shan and Zuo Yuan for their help. If it was just him alone, he would not be able to see Duan Yunfei today.
Inside the carriage, Duan Yunfei was still fuming. Zuo Yuan and Xiao Yang looked at each other, not knowing how to make Duan Yunfei forgive themselves.
What Duan Yunfei hated the most was to be cheated by others, but what she was being cheated of right now was her best friend and her most trusted maid. How could Duan Yunfei not be angry at this?
Zuo Chong used his fingertip to lightly poke the angry Duan Yunfei, "Alright, don't be angry, I've thought about it many times, if I hadn't said that, you wouldn't have left the palace today."
"Using your heart to do this? All of you are lying to me. Zuo Yuanyuan, I know that your starting point is for my own good, but don't you know how much I don't want to see Chu Yang right now? Don't you find the atmosphere very awkward? "Zuo Yuan, you guys said it's for me, but can you think about it for me?"
Zuo Yuanyuan had guessed that Duan Yunfei would be angry, but she did not expect Duan Yunfei to doubt the intentions they had for her and Wu Shan.
Zuo Yuan did not tease Duan Yunfei anymore, and showed a serious expression.
"Yunfei, you're not the only one who's worried about this situation. When I came out of the room and walked to the main hall, I saw the three of you staring at each other without saying a word. I was wondering why we became like this.
This matter concerns the relationship between you and Chu Yang for all these years, but wasn't Wu Shan and I the same? We will just be stuck between you and Chu Yang, looking after both sides, do you think we will be any easier than coming here?
The reason why I'm not willing to say these words to you is because Wu Shan and I are willing to do these things for you.
Did you know, that after Chu Yang rejected His Majesty's offer to give you a marriage, I was just thinking of scolding Chu Yang a lot for you.
But, Yun Fei, Chu Yang is not easier to deal with than you.
Do you think that he is breaking his promise and giving up easily after you have been wronged? But do you know that he has been waiting for you for so many years?
To be honest, I even felt that it wasn't worth it when you treated Xiu Heng well back then. If you could be so passionate to Xiu Heng, why couldn't you see how sincere he was to you? "
Zuo Yuan had kept these words in her heart all this time to prevent Duan Yunfei from feeling any pressure, but since it had already come to this, Zuo Yuan felt that there was no need to hide it anymore.
Facing Zuo Yuan's honesty, Duan Yunfei was suddenly speechless. A moment ago, Duan Yunfei was still the victim in this matter, but after hearing what Zuo Yuan said, Duan Yunfei felt that she had brought them so much harm.
"Zuo Yuan, I don't even know this." Duan Yunfei powerlessly said those words. Her heart was filled with remorse, but she had no strength to change that.
"Yun Fei, I am not saying these words to make you blame yourself. I just want us to be as good as we used to be. If we change for these things, I really will feel very sad. "
Duan Yunfei nodded, and decided to give Mu Chuyang a chance, and also give himself a chance, although this matter was not going to be easy.
