C129 Go to the Cell
When they came, it was a wagon, and when they left, it turned into two.
Because the other one was lying on Mei's cold corpse. The horse carriage was simple and crude. There were only a few pieces of wood that carried Mei and Lingyue's weight. It did not have a shed. It was the aunt in the Palace who packed it up and waited outside the hall. When Yu Longchen and ___ went out, she personally handed it to Mu Ruqing.
Mu Ruqing originally wanted to look at Mei more on that simple and crude carriage. Yu Longchen and Lingyue did not allow it, so Yu Longchen forcefully carried her onto the carriage in the Imperial Residence.
Mu Ruqing did not cry and just sat on the carriage blankly. Yu Longchen knew her temper and silently accompanied her, using his own embrace to warm her.
"How did Consort Long treat you?" Mu Ruqing suddenly asked. Her bright peach blossom eyes flashed with a strange light. No matter how it changed, it could not hide her sadness.
"Yes. After Royal Mother left, she treated me the best. What?" Yu Longchen lowered his head and looked at Mu Ruqing who was leaning on his shoulder. He could not help but touch her head.
"Oh, it's nothing." Mu Ruqing casually replied and turned her head to look behind her.
Yu Longchen knew that she was thinking about Lingyue and Mei and left her a few inches away. He lowered his head and comforted her face to face, "Mei's happiest thing is to be able to fight with you and your master. Today she went, but you found the real culprit for her. In the underworld, she will be grateful to you. "
"Yes." Mu Ruqing only replied one word. She had always been clear about love and hate. Although Mei did not follow her for long, how could her feelings be clear in a few sentences?
Yu Longchen hugged her tighter and thought about what would happen if she drank that bowl of lotus soup and you were not around. He was afraid. It seemed that he would have to follow you closely from now on.
When they returned to the Imperial Residence, the first thing Mu Ruqing did was to hold a funeral for Mei.
Xiangyi cried more than anyone else. The next morning, she and Lingyue sent Mei's coffin back to her parents with heavy compensation.
Mei, who was in the coffin, was dressed in high-quality material and had beautiful makeup on. She looked like she was sleeping.
Mu Ruqing stood at the entrance of the mansion and watched them leave until she could not see them. The white lotus hiding in the dark had an evil smile on her face. Seeing Mu Ruqing sad made her really happy.
Yu Longchen held the dark red fur coat and draped it over Mu Ruqing. Mu Ruqing's sad peach blossom eyes were on him. The two of them hugged each other and entered the mansion.
Why was the white lotus still able to restrain itself when it saw Yu Longchen? The two of them only took a few steps before they rushed out. The harmless smile was very dazzling. The voice was like a copper bell as it gently called out: "Paying respects to the Royal Highness, Princess"
Mu Ruqing glanced at her indifferently and continued to walk. Yu Longchen was naturally the same. He looked straight ahead and was unwilling to give her even an inch. The white lotus was ignored just like that. Her delicate little face turned red. Her gaze was about to pierce through Mu Ruqing.
Mu Ruqing felt the intense gaze behind her back and was already sad in her heart. For some reason, she wanted to throw a tantrum. She puckered her lips and said, "Your Highness, aren't you going to take a look at your little lover? Truly ruthless."
Yu Longchen saw that her tears were about to come out and directly stood in front of the stunned white lotus behind him. He kissed Mu Ruqing's forehead affectionately and touched her cold cheek. His eyes were full of softness and his tone was overbearing. "You are my little lover, my wife."
... "" Before Mu Ruqing could say anything, Yu Longchen used his warm lips to block Mu Ruqing's small mouth. After a while, he left. His slender fingers touched his lips and his face was full of reminiscence.
Mu Ruqing smacked her lips and inadvertently looked at the white lotus that was twisted together. Her eyes were proud. "Your Royal Highness, it is not enough..."
Yu Longchen knew that she was not happy about it and was willing to spoil her. With a doting smile, he blinked the white lotus's eyes.
He carried Mu Ruqing back to the room with a princess in his arms.
In the afternoon, Mu Ruqing and Yu Longchen sat on a low-profile carriage and headed to the imperial prison.
Last night, Mu Ruxuan woke up in the damp and narrow prison. The smell of rotten wood and rotten meat mixed in with the smell of rotten meat. It was unknown if it was from a human or a dead mouse. "
Under her body was half dried and half wet dry grass. Other than the rats that ran out from the cell from time to time, there was nothing else in the cell.
Mu Ruxuan started screaming and making noise at the beginning, and then she calmed down at the end. She turned into a demented appearance and looked like she did not care at all today. She leaned against the wooden door with a dull look. When she saw a prison guard, she stretched out her hand to pull him. Every one of them said, "Little brother, let me out... I'll give you money..."
The prison guard snorted and looked at her with disdain every time. He didn't say anything either.
Mu Ruqing walked in front while Yu Longchen followed closely behind. The head of the prison guard was very respectful and had been leading the way in front. It was rare to see someone with such a high status. He naturally had to curry favor with her. "Your Royal Highness, Princess, the inside of the prison is very humid. You have to say this lowly one. Your status is noble, so there is no need for this kind of place. However, the nobility of your Royal Highness and Princess... After suppressing the bad luck in the prison, the two of you came. This will also allow the two of you to have a share of the good fortune."
Mu Ruqing handed him a bag of silver and her tone carried a hint of teaching, "This wangfei does not like this kind of person who bootlicks others."
The head of the prison guards took the silver and stuffed it into his arms. He lightly smacked his lips, "It was my slip of the tongue. What the Princess taught me was right. Prince and Princess, the sinner's wife has arrived."
Mu Ruqing and Mu Ruqing looked at Mu Ruxuan who was covered in mud and her clothes were covered in dust. Mu Ruqing had a mocking smile as she stared straight into Mu Ruxuan's eyes.
Yu Longchen said in a deep voice, "All of you can go down!"
"Yes." The head of the prison guards tactfully took the other prison guards away.
Mu Ruxuan looked up at Mu Ruqing in a daze and her body started to tremble. It was unknown whether she was angry or afraid.
"If I knew this would happen, why would I have done it back then?" Mu Ruqing spoke and Mu Ruxuan finally raised her head and looked at her carefully. She sneered a few times.
"You caused my aunt to end up like this today, it is all your fault!" Mu Ruxuan grabbed the wooden door of the prison and climbed up and reached out her hand to grab Mu Ruqing fiercely.
Yu Longchen pulled Mu Ruqing over and turned around. Along the way, he dislocated Mu Ruxuan's arm.
The originally narrow prison cell was filled with the sound of pigs being slaughtered.
"If you still want to live, pay attention to your behavior." Yu Longchen protected Mu Ruqing in his arms. His face was as black as charcoal. His majesty made Mu Ruxuan's distorted facial features become more and more hideous from the pain!
"This consort does not understand. It was clearly you guys who wanted to harm me. How can you blame this consort for failing to steal a chicken?" Mu Ruqing sized Mu Ruxuan up and down with disappointment, "I have warned you and also gave you a chance. Who can you blame for being stupid?"
"Hehe." Mu Ruxuan suddenly felt sad. She looked at Yu Longchen who loved Mu Ruqing so much and remembered what Yu Longzi had done to her. "Do you know whose name Yu Longzi called in his dream?"
It seemed that she had completely lost hope. She called Yu Longzi by his name. Mu Ruqing looked at her and frowned in dissatisfaction. Mu Ruxuan smiled complacently, "It is your Mu Ruqing's name! I accompanied him day and night but in his heart, he was thinking about you. King Chu, perhaps your princess also called his name at night. Have you heard of him?"
Why would Yu Longchen fall for her trick? He replied with a polite smile," So what? The Princess will only be mine. "
"Very good. Seeing your current appearance, I am relieved." Mu Ruqing pulled Yu Longchen's wide and gentle hand. She smiled very politely, but it was full of sarcasm!
When Mu Ruqing and Yu Longchen turned around, Mu Ruxuan dragged her dislocated hand and gritted her teeth as she said, "I want to harm you. The poison I used was not Red Crane Top and my palace maid did not kill Mei."
Mu Ruqing stopped for a while and shock flashed across her eyes as she calmly embraced Yu Longchen.
