Mu Rousang laughed and waved her hand, then said: ”It's fine, even though the Northern Lands is cold because of the dryness inside, I don't know where Little Rock is feeling uncomfortable, but it's been hard for everyone to come to this palace gate, and get frozen.”
”It's better to choose a day than a day. Let's go to Ming Xiang Restaurant to have a meal first!” Yang Zixuan saw that everyone had been waiting for a long time and had not had any lunch yet, so he invited them to his own restaurant to eat.
Everyone saw that Mu Rousang was not in a bad mood, of course, they also saw the red and swollen face, but since they were in a different place, they obeyed their orders and went to their respective carriages.
Yang Zixuan quickly pulled her into his carriage, and after they sat down, he brewed a cup of hot tea for her and said: ”Quickly, drink some hot tea.”
Mu Rousang pushed the tea away again and said smilingly: ”I'm afraid you're freezing cold or you should drink a cup of hot tea to warm your body. I only walked for a short distance and my body is still a little hot.
Yang Zixuan waited on the outskirts of the palace for a long time, until his face was green from the cold, he reached out and grabbed Mu Rousang's hand, finding that it was warmer than his, he did not say anything more and poured another cup, then said: ”Let's drink and chat.”
He lightly kicked the side of the carriage, signalling for the coachman to drive back to the house.
Mu Rousang finally heaved a sigh of relief, and spoke about the things that happened in the palace during the past two days amidst the tea smoke.
After a long while, Yang Zixuan sighed: ”My wife, there won't be a next time.
She held the teacup with her small hands and took a sip. Then, she smiled and said, ”It's none of your business. Besides, I'm not made of paper.”
What happened this time gave her a warning. It was true that she was Yang Zixuan's wife, but she was not his dodder. That way, they wouldn't be able to interact so lovingly each other.
”If you had told me earlier, you wouldn't have suffered so much.” He reached out and gently caressed the half swollen face of Mu Rousang.
”This is nothing.”
Compared to Yang Juan Er being the crown prince's consort and being grounded, receiving a slap on her head was nothing. Since Yang Juan Er's prestige was gone, there would probably not be another consort who would have a good impression of her. This was disrespecting the elders.
”Don't worry, your husband won't make you suffer this slap for nothing.”
Yang Zixuan was not as soft-hearted as Mu Rousang, if not, how could he earn the inheritance from a small bastard son?
Mu Rousang guessed that Yang Zixuan would not be able to take this lying down, and she did not plan to advise him otherwise.
Everyone quietly entered from the back door of the restaurant, and after eating dinner, they asked Mu Rousang about her situation in the palace.
Princess Jing'an was the most impatient. She slapped her hand on the table and said angrily: ”I'm so angry. You dared to hit my sister-in-law. Where did she get the guts to do that?”
Mu Rousang laughed awkwardly, seeing that she understood what was going on, he then said: ”Calm down, my wife, although the Crown Prince did not get beaten up, the Crown Prince did this to her face in front of everyone in Great Zhou Dynasty.”
That's right, this time, Mu Rousang borrowed the force of the blow and fiercely slapped Yang Juan Er, causing her to be unable to raise her head in front of all the inner women.
”Sister-in-law, don't be angry. She's the crown prince's consort. Even if she wants to force me, what can she do? Besides, I saw how the crown prince treated her …”
In fact, the Crown Prince did not treat Yang Juan Er very well, he was more of taking advantage of him, because the power of the Marquis of Loyalty was like a pillar supporting the heavens for the Crown Prince, the most powerful support he had for ascending the throne.
Princess Jing'an wanted to say something, but Mu Jinzhi tugged at her and laughed: ”Don't you love eating fish lips the most? Look, this is specially prepared for you. If it's cold, it will have a fishy smell.
With that, he picked up a piece of her tender lips and put it into her bowl. Alright, with Mu Jinzhi's good temper as his husband, Princess Jing'an rolled on the ground and rolled down the slope.
After Mu Fengchai heard what Mu Rousang said, she hated Yang Juan Er from the bottom of his heart. She was simply a woman, unable to help her own cousin, unable to help at all.
Mu Jinzhi would not allow Yang Juan Er to hit Mu Rousang for free, he was just holding back for the moment, he raised his head and looked at Yang Zixuan, the two of them had a tacit understanding.
After Mu Rousang returned from the palace, she completely broke off all relations with the Madame Loyal Marquis. That day, when she returned home, she followed Yang Zixuan to pay respects to the Matriarch Yang.
”Grandmother!”
Mu Rousang cried in front of her heels.
”Get up, let Grandmother see!”
After Matriarch Yang found out that Mu Rousang had been left in the palace, he couldn't shake off the prayer beads and the scriptures he had recited. When he saw that she had returned safely, he became even more worried.
”Your face … ”Ai, don't worry. Your mother won't make things difficult for you anymore!”
Mu Rousang looked at her, puzzled.
