The Aloof Prince Pampers His Wild First Rate Consort

How could Emperor Ximing fail to hear the threat in Beitang's words, he couldn't help but lower his eyebrows, and there was a thoughtful expression between his brows.

On this Canghua Continent, there are four countries in the southeast, northwest, and the four countries are evenly matched in strength, so they have been afraid of each other in the past few years, and they all got along on the surface.

But now, it would definitely not be worthwhile to turn against Beitang Wenfeng and provoke a war between Xiyuan Kingdom and Beiming Kingdom for Mu Yunjin.

But let him give up like this, he can't swallow the breath in his heart!

After thinking for a while, Emperor Ximing turned his attention to Old General Qin who was at the side.

Old General Qin never expected that things would develop like this, and he couldn't think of any other countermeasures for a while, so he could only sigh and shook his head towards Emperor Ximing.

...

Mu Yunjin listened to Chu Li's words very much, and stayed in the Liquan Pavilion without going out. Zixiang brought her all the meals.

In the early morning of the next day, Mu Yunjin was lying on the soft couch, casually flipping through the books sent by Chu Li, not knowing whether Chu Li was afraid that she would be in a bad mood or treating her like a child, the books he found for her were all classical jokes.

Someone knocked gently on the door, and Zixiang walked in with breakfast, "Miss, let's eat something."

"Yeah." Mu Yunjin got up, walked to the table, and took a sip of water first, "Where's Chu Li?"

Zixiang paused, then pointed to a direction outside the door, "Your Highness is in the study."

Mu Yunjin nodded, and pursed her lips. These two days, Chu Li was always mysterious and didn't bother her. He came to see her occasionally, and then left after a few orders.

During the breakfast, Mu Yunjin frowned, "Are the guards outside the door still there?"

Zixiang nodded.

Mu Yunjin bit her lip, put down the spoon in her hand, and lost her appetite. If the imperial guards didn't retreat for a day, she and Chu Li would be like birds in a cage, trapped and locked in this palace, unable to get free, and suffering from the suspicion of all kinds of people.

From the perspective of outsiders, seeing such a big battle, they really thought she had committed a heinous crime.

"I'll go find Chu Li." Feeling depressed, Mu Yunjin got up and walked out of the room, heading towards Chu Li's study.

Seeing that Mu Yunjin was in a bad mood, Zixiang hurriedly followed behind Mu Yunjin.

As soon as Mu Yunjin walked to the door of Liquan Pavilion, she almost bumped into Chu Li who was entering the door. Chu Li reached out to support her shoulder to prevent her from falling.

"What are you doing in such a hurry?" Chu Li looked down at her.

"I'm going to find you." Mu Yunjin met Chu Li's gaze.

Chu Li reached out and stroked her head, "Have you had breakfast?"

"Half eaten."

"Go and finish breakfast first." Chu Li pulled her into the room.

Mu Yunjin returned to the room and ate the half-eaten porridge again. Chu Li looked at her and pushed the snack in front of her again.

Under Chu Li's watchful eyes, Mu Yunjin finished her breakfast slowly and took another sip of water, when a notification came from outside the door——

"The decree has arrived!"

Upon hearing the imperial decree, Mu Yunjin was startled, and then looked outside the door. Isn't the person standing outside the door exactly Eunuch Lu?

Did Chu Li let people in?

Mu Yunjin was a little surprised, got up and walked out.

Eunuch Lu approached, bowed to Chu Li and Mu Yunjin, then looked at Mu Yunjin with a smile, "Princess Ning accepts the order—"

"By God's blessing, the emperor ordered that Concubine Ning Yunjin rioted in the Golden Palace the day before yesterday and killed the civilian woman Xiao Shi. Although her actions were reckless and inappropriate, but I think of the past feelings, let me give you a lighter punishment. Now I order Ning Princess Yunjin to immediately go to the Anxin Hall of Shuiyun Temple to confine her feet for seventy-seven forty-nine days, and copy three hundred scriptures as a sign of punishment. Hereby!"

"Princess Ning, accept the decree." After reading the imperial decree, Eunuch Lu presented it.

Mu Yunjin was a little surprised, she had thought about thousands of versions of the imperial decree, all of which were about the death method that Emperor Ximing would choose for herself, but she never thought that it would only be confined for forty-nine days.

Compared to what she thought in her mind and the real laws of the Xiyuan Kingdom, this restraint was indeed a very light punishment.

After thinking about it, Mu Yunjin turned to look at Chu Li, seeking his opinion.

Chu Li nodded at her, "Accept the order."

Mu Yunjin reached out to accept the imperial decree, thanked him, and gave Eunuch Lu a little reward, and Eunuch Lu left satisfied.

Before the imperial decree in his hand was hot, there was another announcement from outside the Liquan Pavilion, "The imperial decree has arrived—"

"Huh? There are more?" Mu Yunjin was surprised.

A man in a dark green gown and a gauze hat entered the door, holding a scroll of bright yellow imperial decree, and slowly approached Mu Yunjin.

Mu Yunjin recognized him, Beitang Wenfeng's entourage.

"Concubine Ning received the order—"

"By God's blessing, the emperor ordered that Concubine Ning, Yun Jin, is my own flesh and blood. I have been looking for her for many years, but fortunately, God has mercy on me, and I finally got my daughter back. Today, Yun Jin is specially conferred the title of Princess Jinhua of the Beiming Kingdom, the head of all the princesses of the Beiming Kingdom. I respect you!"

After the imperial decree was read, the attendant stretched out his hand to hand the imperial decree to Mu Yunjin.

Mu Yunjin stood where she was and didn't pick her up.

At this time, Beitang Wenfeng and Jiang Qingxue also walked in from the outside, both of them looked a little lamented and uncomfortable, and finally Beitang Wenfeng took a step forward.

"Yunjin, is this your thing?" Beitang Wenfeng handed the jade pendant in front of Mu Yunjin, looked at Mu Yunjin tentatively, and suddenly found that she was a little nervous when meeting people for the first time.

Mu Yunjin narrowed her eyes, with a deep light in her eyes, glanced at the jade pendant, then turned her eyes to Chu Li, bit her lip, and immediately understood everything.

No wonder Emperor Ximing gave her a lighter punishment.

Mu Yunjin reached out to take back the jade pendant from Beitang Wenfeng, stuffed it into her sleeve, and said coldly, "Thank you, Monarch, for sending back my jade pendant."

Beitang's hand trembled upon hearing the wind.

Jiang Qingxue clasped her hands tightly together, at this moment she couldn't help but took a step forward, and said slightly, "Yun Jin, the monarch is your biological father."

Mu Yunjin's expression was indifferent, unmoved at all, and she sneered for a while.

Have you seen the owner of this body?

Your father is the majestic king of Beiming, and your mother is a revered messenger of the saint, but what about you?

You have been oppressed in the Prime Minister's Mansion for so many years since you were a child, and the people in the whole city called you a cowardly idiot, endured scolding and humiliation every day, and finally ended up being strangled to death.

Do you want parents who have abandoned you so cruelly?

Since you can't answer me, then I'll make the decision for you...

"Aren't you going to be grounded at Shuiyun Temple? Can I go now?" Mu Yunjin turned to look at Chu Li.

Chu Li nodded, and took Mu Yunjin's hand naturally, "I will take you to Shuiyun Temple first, and order your clothes to be packed and delivered."

"En." Mu Yunjin responded, and walked out with Chu Li.

Behind him, Beitang heard the frustration in his heart, looked at the imperial decree still in the hands of his followers, and sighed helplessly.

"It's normal for her not to accept us." Jiang Qingxue stepped forward to comfort her.

"The widow really loves this child." Thinking of the attitude of the members of the Mu family towards her after Mu Liangzheng's death in the hall that day, one knows that her life in the prime minister's mansion was not easy.

What evil have they been doing all these years.

...

On the carriage to Shuiyun Temple.

"Put things away." Mu Yunjin took out the jade pendant and handed it to Chu Li's arms, her tone sullen.

Chu Li held the jade pendant, stroked it gently with his fingers, and smiled slightly, "If you want to stay in Anxin Hall for forty-nine days, do you need me to accompany you?"

Mu Yunjin shook her head, "You don't need to come, this punishment is for me, I accept it."

"Okay." Chu Li responded with a straight line, raising his brows slightly, "However, this king will still find time to visit you."

"Otherwise, if I don't see you for forty-nine days, I will be suffocated."

"What are you holding back..." Mu Yunjin muttered, wondering what Chu Li meant by holding back, and why they didn't do it.

Chu Li gave a low laugh, reached out to pinch the back of her head, and kissed her on the lips, "This king is referring to this."

Mu Yunjin curled her lips and snorted.

All the way to Shuiyun Temple, neither of them mentioned Beitang Wenfeng and Jiang Qingxue. When Mu Yunjin got off the carriage, Master Huaiyuan, who had heard the news that she was going to be grounded, was already waiting outside the temple.

After seeing Chu Li and Mu Yunjin approaching, Master Huaiyuan smiled and stroked them.

"I heard that Princess Ning will stay in this Anxin Hall for forty-nine days. Please rest assured, Prince Ning. I will take good care of you," Master Huaiyuan said.

Chu Li smiled lightly, "There is no need to take care of her, she is here to be punished, not to be a guest."

After saying that, Mu Yunjin punched him in the chest with her elbow.

Master Huaiyuan laughed, and led the two of them towards the Anxin Hall.

Anxin Hall is the place where you can feel the most quiet and clear in Shuiyun Temple, because the terrain is close to the largest Sanskrit bell in the temple. When you recite the scriptures every day, accompanied by the Sanskrit bell, you will have different feelings seeping out from the bottom of your heart.

After entering the Anxin Hall, Mu Yunjin looked around and saw a statue of Avalokitesvara in the center of the hall, surrounded by only an empty table and chair, presumably for her to copy the scriptures.

On the other side was a small room with a bed for Mu Yunjin to sleep on.

"Very good." Mu Yunjin looked around and said from the bottom of her heart.

Master Huaiyuan walked aside, took a thick scripture book, and handed it to Mu Yunjin, "This is the scripture that the princess wants to copy."

"It's so thick..." Mu Yunjin gasped a few times, remembering that the imperial edict asked her to copy three hundred articles.

"Okay, I got it." Mu Yunjin took the scriptures and just copied the scriptures. There is always a way.

After taking care of everything, Mu Yunjin looked at Chu Li beside her, "Okay, you can go now."

Chu Li hummed, and after listening to her words, he made a gesture to leave, but was pulled back by Mu Yunjin, "You really left like this, do you have anything to say to me?"

After speaking, Mu Yunjin suddenly had the feeling that she was in prison, as if she was going to be locked up for several years.

"Stay well." Chu Li stretched out his hand to pinch her face, and smiled at her.

Mu Yunjin pursed her lips, let go of Chu Li, and waved at him, "Then, goodbye."

"See you."

After speaking, Chu Li and Master Huaiyuan walked out.

After the two walked out of the door, Chu Li ordered Song Chun to watch over Mu Yunjin in the dark. Master Huaiyuan shook his head helplessly when he saw this scene, "Your Highness is afraid that someone will eat the princess?"
