Chapter 23: The Imperial Noble Consort Qing Arrives

  Muyexiao looked at the breakfast on the table and was still very satisfied. Anyway, the Qianjiu in front of him, although a bit ordinary in appearance, wouldnt be good at music, chess, calligraphy or painting.

  But at least he managed to grasp his stomach, and Muye Ye was barely satisfied with this person, sitting down to eat breakfast with Qianjiu.

  Ancient people all emphasized that when eating, one should not speak and when sleeping, one should not talk. Not talking while sleeping is understandable, which means not speaking after falling asleep. However, this "not speaking while eating" is extremely difficult to achieve.

  After watching Mu Ye Xiang eat halfway through, Qian Jiujiu finally couldnt help but speak up: "Hows the taste?"

  "Looked at Qianjiujiu with a glance: No discipline."

  After saying that, she continued to lower her head and eat, Qianjiu was so suffocated, whats wrong with not having rules? She just cared about it.

  He didnt know the good intentions of others, and his shoulders suddenly slumped. After that, he ignored Mu Ye Xiao again, even after finishing breakfast, he still ignored Mu Ye Xiao.

  Mu Yes eyebrows furrowed as he looked at Qianjiu: "Qianjiu, what are you doing? You look so listless?"

  These past few days, Mu Ye Xiao had never seen Qian Jiujiu look like this before. Qian Jiujiu rolled her eyes and said, "What business is it of yours?"

  "Hmph!" He turned his head away, ignoring him. Mu Ye Xiao was left standing there, feeling a bit frustrated, but then he thought of something and glanced at Qian Jiujiu.

  "In 1999, I remembered something, do you want to hear it? If you dont want to listen, then dont regret it later."

  Qianjiu turned his head and took a glance at Muyexiao: "I dont know what the prince is talking about, but I wont regret it. Then Ill listen."

  This attitude made Mu Ye Xiang somewhat displeased, but in comparison, he disliked even more the listless appearance of Qian Jiujiu, and let out a sigh.

  "I remember your aunts situation wasnt very good, I was thinking of sending someone over to secretly protect her, but it seems like a certain someone doesnt appreciate it."

  Qianjiu heard this and her eyes lit up instantly: "Is what you said true, Master Wang? You want to help me protect my aunt?"

  Muyexiao looked at Qianjiu and suddenly became spirited, couldnt help but laugh: "This king has always been..."

  At this point, Mu Ye Xiao deliberately stopped and wanted to see Qian Jiujius anxious look. What he really meant to say was that the king had always been a man of his word.

  Just then, Qianjiu heard Mu Ye Xiang not say anything, and couldnt help but start guessing wildly. Squinting her eyes to think for a moment, the two people were partners after all, if they had to put in effort to deal with something, naturally they also couldnt let someone else get it for free.

  At this point, Qianjiujiu had an epiphany, and looked at Muyexiao with a bewildered expression.

  "I understand, Prince Wang. Are you saying that you never make a loss in business? You can rest assured on this point. If you let someone protect my mother, I will absolutely not let you suffer a loss."

  "Go ahead and tell me what you want me to do, as long as its within my capabilities, Ill agree to it."

  Muyexiao looked at Qianjiu and was very puzzled, her eyebrows furrowed: "Qianjiu, what image do you have of me in your heart?"

  What image? Is this king having a seizure today? Why is he suddenly concerned about this? Blinking his eyes: "The kings image is very majestic and powerful."

  "My admiration for you is like a boundless river..."

  "Alright, stop talking nonsense. Im saying that as the king, my word is worth a thousand pieces of gold. What I say counts, and Ill send someone to protect your mother."

  "Dong Chen, take me out for a spin."

  1991 looked at the background of Mu Ye Xiangs departure with a confused face, did she say something wrong? Obviously, she was praising him, but he just left like that, and others still had not finished expressing themselves!

  "Red Liang, why did your husband leave? And how rude of you to interrupt someones conversation."

  Hong Liang suddenly looked pitifully in the direction where Mu Ye Xiao left, not knowing how to answer Qian Jiujiu, and she herself was also a bit dazed.

  She shook her head: "I dont know why the master is angry either. Otherwise, Princess Wang, you can cook a delicious meal at noon to coax King Wang."

  Qianjiu flipped her eyes and hummed proudly: "Why should I coax him? I didnt do anything wrong, why should I coax him?"

  Hong Chou thought for a moment before speaking: "Your Highness, I think the king just agreed to protect your mother, shouldnt you thank him?"

  Also okay! Qianjiu nodded: "This reason is almost enough, then Ill go to the kitchen now."

  After Mu Ye Xiao left, she felt a bit down again, because in Qianjius heart, what kind of image was he after all?

  He really wanted to know, but asking Qianjiu would probably lead to more nonsense, and it was simply heartbreaking. Mu Ye Xiao couldnt help but sigh in his heart.

  Why does he seem to have met his nemesis whenever he encounters Qianjiu?

  There was a bit of awkwardness in his heart, and he glanced at Dong Chen: "Dong Chen, go take a look now, what is the princess doing?"

  Dong Chen had a hundred and a thousand unwilling thoughts in his heart, looking at Mu Ye Xiang: "Your Highness, why are you so concerned about her? Could it be that you really want to make her the princess?"

  Mu Ye heard Dong Chens words and didnt get angry, instead he carefully considered it: "Whats wrong with her being a princess?"

  Dong Chen actually didnt want to roll his eyes, but he couldnt help it: "But Your Highness, shes just a concubine-born daughter, she cant play the zither or chess, and she doesnt know how to paint. If the Empress finds out..."

  "You will definitely not agree with it, and when the time comes, you, Wang Ye, will be the one who gets hurt if you put your heart into it."

  Muyeying furrowed his brow: "You mean, will my mother empress beat the mandarin ducks?"

  The words of Mu Ye Xiao had just fallen when a womans voice came: "What is the emperor saying? What stick to hit mandarin ducks? Who do I want to beat?"

  Hearing a familiar voice, Mu Ye Xiao was startled and turned to look at the incoming Qing Gui Fei, somewhat incredulous: "Mother, how did you come?"

  Qing Guifei coldly snorted: "I heard that yesterday when you returned to the palace, you went to the residence of the Minister? You child, whats going on with you? Dont you know that your parents, the Emperor and Empress, are worried about your health?"

  "You can go out now, but instead of coming to the palace to see us, you actually ran to the residence of the Minister of War. By the way, where is your wife, the princess?"

  "This palace exempted her from even coming in to pay respects, letting her take good care of you, the king, at the mansion. Where is she?"

  Dong Chen hung his head low, looking at the tip of his nose with a "I didnt hear anything" expression. Mu Ye Xiao, on the other hand, was getting a headache - his mother was quite fierce.

  He knew it, looks like this stick is hitting the swan first, and now hes coming to look for trouble.

  "Mother Empress, Jiujiu..." Mu Ye Xiao coughed twice:

  Qing Guifei heard an unfamiliar name and couldnt help but feel some confusion: "Wait, who is this Jiǔjiǔ? Mother asked about your queen, Senaka, not someone named Jiǔjiǔ."

  Mu Ye Xuan thought for a moment, Qian Jiujiu that foolish woman couldnt even deceive him, or rather, she didnt try to deceive him at all. How could she possibly deceive his wise and great mother?

  Its better to be honest and speak the truth, with self-protection, nothing should go wrong. Thinking of this, Mù Yè Xiāo still decided to tell the truth.

  "Mother, my queen is Qianjiu, not Qianyuge."

  Qing Gui Feis eyes widened suddenly: "What did you say? But I remember that your father, the Emperor, had arranged for you to marry Qian Yu Ge, so what is this about Qian Jiu Jiu?"

  Muyexiao felt a slight headache: "Empress Dowager, Qianjiu is an individual, or my benefactor in this life."

  Noble person? Qing Gui Fei couldnt help but be puzzled, looking at Mu Ye Xiang: "How noble?"

  Cough! Mu Ye Xiang felt suffocated and sighed: "Empress Dowager, do you want me to stand up?"

  Qing Guifeis face lit up with excitement as soon as she heard the words, and she looked at Mu Ye Xiang: "My son has found a divine doctor? Thats really great! If it werent for my momentary carelessness, I would never have let you get into trouble."

  As soon as he mentioned the incident, Mu Ye Xiangs face turned cold: "This is not Mother Empress fault, its just that those people are ruthless. But I was destined to not decline because of this."

  "This Jiujiu is exactly the person who can cure me, so I think Mother Empress should look at this matter and not care about Jiujius identity."

  Qing Guifeis mouth opened slightly: "Imperial son, are you deceiving me? A little girl, can she really save you?"

  Mu Ye nodded: "My own body, I know that now I can sit in a wheelchair and come out to bask in the sun, my body is no longer seriously injured."

  "Just waiting for my body to get a bit better, then Ill go through detox and only then will they treat my leg."

  Qing Guifei looked at Mu Ye Xiangs words which were reasonable and logical, so she temporarily believed it: "Then let me see this Qian Jiujiu."

  Muyexiao naturally wouldnt stop him, thinking for a moment, he still didnt know what Qianjiu was doing now. He glanced at Dongchen: "Dongchen, go and invite the princess over."

  Then he used his eyes to signal Dong Chen to hurry and tell Qianjiu that his mother, Consort Qinggui, had arrived.

  Dong Chen naturally also received it, but the brow-to-brow communication between these two people didnt escape Rui Gui Feis eyes. As Dong Chen was about to leave, Rui Gui Fei let out a cold snort.

  "Wait a minute, Ill go with you, Id like to see what your princess is up to now."

  "East Dust, youre still not leading the way for me up ahead."

  Dong Chen reluctantly led the way in front, Mu Ye Xiao followed, and saw the steward of the mansion behind, and glared at the steward fiercely.

  The housekeeper thought it was not good, but he didnt care about his business. It was the noble consort who did not allow him to report.

  Lowering their heads, they naturally followed behind him, and a group of people walked towards the courtyard where Qianjiu was currently living.

  Qianjiu was busy in the kitchen at this time, with his four legs pointing to the sky. He had been smelling the chicken soup that had been simmering for several hours and it really smelled delicious.

  Wait a minute, Mu Ye Xiao will definitely like it, if he doesnt like it, Ill give him bitter medicine to eat from now on.

  Thinking so in his heart, Qianjiu was delighted.

  The hands that were making other medicinal dishes also quickened their pace, and at this time, Consort Qinggui had arrived, but she was staring at the Wangfeis courtyard, where not a single person was present.
