C478 Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony (2/2)
Yun'er said helplessly.
Mu Ru Yue was also startled when she heard that.
What a joke. In this day and age, it's not a good name for a woman to sleep in. She already has a lot of bad reputations, so there's no need to add another one that makes people want to laugh.” Thinking this, Murong Yue leaned to let Yun'er in.
Yun'er didn't say anything more and quickly helped Murong Yue wash up.
In the mirror, Mu Ru Yue looked at herself.
The current her had withdrawn her usual red clothes, and her white clothes looked a bit more elegant, a bit less gorgeous. Her facial features could not be considered good, but her eyes made up for everything.
”The wangfei is really pretty.” Yun Er couldn't help but sigh as she looked at Mu Ru Yue in the mirror. Hearing that, the corner of Mu Ru Yue's mouth twitched. ”Are you serious? ”Who knows how many women in the world are more beautiful than this wangfei.”
”But none of these women are as admirable as Princess Hua-Yang. In this servant's eyes, you are the most beautiful master. ” Yun'er was serious. Mu Ru Yue couldn't help but laugh as she continued, ”You must have eaten all of the City Lord's Mansion's honey, right?”
”Your servant's words are true.” Yun'er still tried to explain herself, but before Mu Ru Yue could reply, she heard a woman's voice from outside, ”Is the Royal Consort here?”
The one who spoke was Ling'er.
When Mu Ru Yue heard that, she looked to Yun'er, who hurriedly went to greet her. ”Our Royal Consort is here. What business does elder sister Ling'er have?”
”The sacrificial ceremony is about to begin. The mayor invited his wife over, is that okay?” As Ling'er spoke, she tried to look inside, but was blocked by Yun'er. ”Of course.”
With that, Yun'er called out to the inner hall, ”Master, Miss Ling'er invites you to the Heaven's Sacrifice ceremony.”
Mu Ru Yue walked out of the room. Although she didn't know why Yun'er was acting this way, she was still willing to cooperate with her. The current Yun'er was no longer as casual in front of others as she usually was.
She looked more like a maidservant who had followed Princess Hua-Yang.
When Mu Ru Yue saw her expression, she naturally became vigilant. It seemed that he couldn't afford to be careless this time around. Otherwise, Yun'er's personality wouldn't have been like this.
”Princess, the Mayor has been waiting for you. Please follow me.” Ling'er's attitude was neither servile nor overbearing. Even though Yun'er and Mu Ru Yue had very cold attitudes today, in Ling'er's eyes, it seemed as though nothing had changed.
Mu Ru Yue nodded and followed Ling'er. Yun'er followed at the back, frowning as she looked worriedly at her wangfei.
The Rites of Heavenly Worship was something that the citizens of Peony City cared the most about. In their eyes, the Rites of Heavenly Worship was etiquette. It is also a symbol of a more prosperous future.
Very quickly, everyone arrived at the front hall of the City Lord's Mansion. When Mu Ru Yue arrived, she saw Feng Qing sitting in the room. She didn't have any expression on her face, but her eyes were cold and aloof as usual.
As for Qing Xun, he sat at the head of the table, drinking tea and listening to the conversation of the people around him.
When Mu Ru Yue saw Qing Xun, she couldn't help but mock him in her heart. Whether he was dead or alive, whether he succeeded or lost, it all depended on today.
”Mayor, the wangfei is here.” Ling'er opened her mouth. When Qing Xun heard this, he also looked over. When he saw the current Mu Rong Yue, who was dressed in plain clothes, his eyes flickered slightly. She really did look like that person.
However, Qing Xun quickly reacted. No matter what, he couldn't think any further. He had already confirmed yesterday that this person wasn't his Ah Yue. If so, she could only die.
