C22 Lend Me a Hand

Ann Mujin was wearing a purple tasseled calabash skirt. Because the weather was cool, Shuiyue thought that she was injured and worried that she would catch a cold, so she added an amber bottom embroidered flower-scalloped silk cloak.

On his head was an Luan Feng Lingyun bun, and in the middle was a coiled dragonfly red and silver pearl, tightly holding it in place. On both sides, there was a pair of coralline-encrusted elements and an agate step. Dai Shan's slender eyebrows, beautiful phoenix eyes, and the corner of Mu Jin's eye — all of them had a red tinge on their cheeks.

At this moment, Marquis Ann and his two daughters were getting ready to get into the car. Seeing Ann Mujin's dressing, Ann Mo and Ann Zeya instantly felt pale.

Marquis Ann stared blankly at his daughter in front of him. After a while, he came back to his senses. He said passionately to Ann Mujin, "Mu Jin, you can ride with your two sisters today."

Marquis Ann's cordial invitation must be out of respect for Jun Lintian, making her sit together with Ann Mo and Ann Zeya. Even Ann Mujin herself felt that she had lost her position as a young lady.

"Master Hou, my master is already waiting for you outside the door."

Jun Lintian was actually waiting outside for her early in the morning. Ann Mo and Ann Mo's faces instantly darkened, the jealousy in their hearts causing them to feel even more uncomfortable. They were obviously the most outstanding daughters of the Marquis Ann's Mansion, so why did Jun Lintian have his eyes on her?

Although Ann Mo was furious inside, she felt a lot better when she thought that she would be able to see Jun Xiefei soon.

When she sat in the car and regained her composure, she saw Ann Zeya's stern face. Ann Mo had always been a person who said whatever she wanted to say without thinking.

"Second sister, don't think about it anymore. If you get angry, you won't be fine. Don't think about Prince Chen, no matter how much you think about him, it won't be yours." Seeing that Ann Zeya didn't say anything, Ann Mo got more excited. "But my life isn't any better than yours. At least I've had parents' love since I was young, so no matter how bad I am, I can still marry Sixth Prince." Elder sister, you must work harder. Just having Will Power s is not enough, in terms of status, you are not as good as Lee Feifei, and in terms of luck, you are not as good as Ann Mujin. "

"Shut up!"

Ann Zeya understood Ann Mo's personality very well, but every word from Ann Mo stabbed at Ann Zeya's sore spot. If it weren't for Ann Zeya suppressing her anger, she would have long condensed her Will Power and struck Ann Mo's head with her palm.

On this side, Ann Mujin saw Jun Lintian's gloomy face the moment she got on the car. His eyes were cold and icy. What's wrong with him? Ann Mujin felt confused.

"This King will wait for you for the time it takes to make a cup of tea."

Oh, oh. Prince Chen has been waiting for too long.

Ann Mujin quietly sat beside Jun Lintian and suddenly said, "Who asked you to come so early?"

Ann Mujin was getting bolder and bolder towards Jun Lintian. Prince Chen was no longer enough to intimidate the young mistress of the house of the Marquis.

Jun Lintian still maintained the same expression. His tone clearly became a lot calmer. He glanced at Ann Mujin and said lightly, "Today is a pretty day."

How could she not be beautiful? She woke up before dawn and was tossed around by Shuiyue. Beauty really had to come at a price.

Ann Mujin was naturally happy that Jun Lintian praised her like this. She was not shy at all and accepted Jun Lintian's praise with satisfaction.

"Of course."

Jun Lintian gently raised his hand to shake Ann Mujin's head. Ann Mujin was already used to Jun Lintian's weird actions. She leaned against the wall of the car and closed her eyes to rest.

Jun Lintian looked at Ann Mujin's delicate face. He thought that Ann Mujin had fallen asleep, but she suddenly said something.

"What did you mean by that note that day?"

Based on her understanding of Ann Mujin, she already knew that she wouldn't be able to guess what was going on. Although she was a trump card in the past, and her thinking skills were extraordinary, but ever since she had arrived in this era, he had discovered that Ann Mujin no longer had the sharpness of a secret service agent. Now, she had already been subtly trained by him to become a 'Divine Beast' that lost its wildness and was obedient.

"If you can't guess, then guess slowly. One day, you will know the answer."

Jun Lintian whispered in his ear. She knew that any type of servant girl must have some kind of master. She clearly wanted to express something, but she purposely kept them in suspense. Ann Mujin hated this type of person the most.

However, Jun Lintian was much easier to deal with compared to Shuiyue. Shuiyue was not someone who was hard to deal with, but Jun Lintian was different. As long as Ann Mujin acted a little cute towards her, anything would be fine.

"Your Highness, just tell me, I really want to know."

Ann Mujin held Jun Lintian's sleeve gently and pulled. As she pulled, she imitated Mrs. Cheng's coquettish tone towards Marquis Ann.

However, Jun Lintian was calm and composed. In order to resist Ann Mujin's coquettish actions, he could only shout at Ann Mujin, "When has this king changed his mind? Shut up!"

Prince Chen was angry again, so Ann Mujin had no choice but to shut up.

However, she wasn't afraid of Jun Lintian's anger at all. Since he really didn't want to talk about it, it meant that she must have said something before the time had come. She would find out sooner or later, so she, Ann Mujin, should wait.

She turned her head and looked at Jun Lintian, purposely making a clown-like face at her. Even the serious Jun Lintian couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Since Prince Chen was smiling, she, Ann Mujin, could finally relax. She could no longer hold up her heavy eyelids and yawned. In order to be comfortable, Ann Mujin hugged Jun Lintian's arm and fell on his shoulder, opening her mouth in a low voice.

"Lend me some money."

Jun Lintian didn't say anything. He just let Ann Mujin lean on him casually.

It was still the same familiar smell from Jun Lintian, urging Ann Mujin to sleep quickly.

Jun Lintian looked at the person in front of him and smiled warmly. In his mind, a fiery red sea of Mu Jin bloomed.

In the endless sea of flowers, a purple-clothed woman was leaning against the thigh of a man wearing a long black robe with auspicious cloud patterns. She was enjoying the sweet smell of Mu Jin's flowers as she fell asleep.

That scene was so beautiful, so peaceful, and so desirable.

However, all is illusory, all is false; all is like a dream or a bubble or a shadow, like dew or like lightning, do as you see it.

When Ann Mujin woke up from her sweet sleep, she had already almost arrived at the short black mountain range on the western outskirts of Ruijing City.

Ann Mujin bewilderedly looked out the window. The carriage was moving on a vast and flat grassland, green grass, blue sky without a cloud in it, cool autumn wind blowing through it, along with the faint fragrance of the plants, refreshing people's hearts. This kind of scene was indeed a rare paradise.

At the end of the prairie was a mountain that was tightly connected to each other. There was not a single gap between the mountains, and it seemed as if there were no end to the undulations, as if they were connected to the other side of the sky.

As the carriage continued its slow journey, when Ann Mujin lifted up the carriage's curtain and looked out the window, the carriage had already moved forward a bit. Looking down the mountain, she could see a deep gorge formed between the mountain.

Noticing the slight change in Ann Mujin's expression, Jun Lintian whispered softly into her ear, "Scared?"

"No, I'm hungry."

He woke up early in the morning and after washing up, he heard Changqing say that Jun Lintian had arrived. In order to prevent Prince Chen, who was high above him, from waiting, Ann Mujin had to eat breakfast.

Fortunately, Jun Lintian knew it was a long journey. He was worried that Ann Mujin would get hungry, so he ordered someone to prepare some pastries.

Jun Lintian opened a black and red lacquer box on the table and placed the pastries in front of Ann Mujin. His eyes were filled with gentleness as he said, "Eat."

"Golden silk emerald golden cake."

Ann Mujin couldn't help but drool as she looked at the plate of extremely delicious food. This pastry was the most delicious one that Ann Mujin had ever eaten.

The honey was sweet and mixed with the faint fragrance of mint leaves. It was soft and smooth in the mouth, and one could clearly see the beehive shape from the bite. It was very tasty and intriguing.

After eating their fill, they walked around the steep road and arrived at a vast and boundless prairie. There were already people setting up tents on the prairie, waiting for the owners to move in.

Eldest Princess and Jun Wushuang were the first to arrive. Seeing the arrival of Jun Lintian's carriage, the mother and daughter duo went out to check.

Eldest Princess was dressed in an ornamental dress, with a silver phoenix crown adorned with purple Shardstone tendrils, exuding a noble and graceful imperial aura. She should have been the age of a middle-aged lady, but her exquisite facial features and unique maintenance made her appear still attractive.

When Ann Mujin saw the two of you, she immediately greeted you courteously. Her tone was elegant and reasonable, "This subject's daughter greets Princess Eldest Princess and Wushuang."

At first, when Jun Wushuang thought of meeting Jun Lintian again, he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart. At last, they met Jun Lintian, but he and Ann Mujin came together on a cart. Jun Wushuang had just broken off the engagement with Jun Xiefei, and now, they were walking together.

Eldest Princess had already noticed Ann Mujin from the beginning. It was difficult for her to not get noticed even though she was dressed so beautifully and was riding on the same bus as Jun Lintian.

"Ann Mujin? "The eldest daughter of the house of the Marquis?"

Eldest Princess couldn't believe that this woman, who had only recently broken off the engagement, was actually so close to Jun Lintian. She must not be a simple person.

"This official's daughter is indeed …"

Eldest Princess carefully sized her up and inwardly sighed that she was indeed a beauty. She was just about to continue speaking when she was stopped by Jun Lintian. "Aunt, if you have nothing to do, then go back to rest. I will also go and settle some debts."

Since Jun Lintian had already said so, Eldest Princess couldn't say anything. She could only watch as Shuiyue brought Ann Mujin into the tent.
