Perhaps because she was sitting in the carriage, Mu Yunjin slept very lightly. When she sensed that the carriage had just stopped, she opened her eyes and sat up.

"It's here." A clear and clear voice came from the side.

Mu Yunjin nodded slightly, opened the curtain of the carriage, and walked out of the carriage. This time, she found that it was still dark and the carriage was parked in a courtyard.

"Where is this place?" Mu Yunjin looked around, seeing that it was pitch black, she couldn't see anything.

"Heyue City." Chu Li said.

Mu Yunjin hummed, and then saw Chu Li take out the jade pendant from his sleeve, and the white light illuminated the whole house.

Looking at the dazzling light, Mu Yunjin frowned slightly, and couldn't help thinking that the first time she saw this jade pendant was the day she drowned Aunt Su.

But that day when the jade pendant fell by the lotus pond, it was also late at night, but it was never seen to emit such a bright light.

What a surprise.

"The house on the east side is idle, you will live there temporarily for a few days." Chu Li pointed to a wing room on the east side.

Mu Yunjin nodded, "Okay."

"It's still a few hours before dawn, you should rest first, and the prince will ask Ding Xian to call you tomorrow morning." After Chu Li finished speaking, he headed towards the west wing.

Mu Yunjin pushed the door and entered the east wing. After lighting the candle, Mu Yunjin picked up the candlestick and looked at the surrounding furnishings.

The layout of this wing room is simple and generous, but everything you need is there.

Stretching out her hand to touch the table, she saw that there was no dust on her hand, and she saw that someone often came to clean it. Mu Yunjin slightly curled her lips, tidied up the clothes she brought, and lay down on the couch.

...

The next day, Mu Yunjin always felt that she had just fallen asleep when there was a knock on the door outside, and Ding Xian's voice came from the side, "Prince and concubine, you can wake up now."

Mu Yunjin opened her eyes, yawned, and said tiredly, "Got it."

Then she got up to change her clothes, and when Mu Yunjin put on her clothes and sat down at the table, she was stunned for a moment.

There was no dressing table in this room, and when she left in a hurry, she didn't bring any rouge and gouache, and the hair accessories were only those that went out last night.

But now the hair bun has been messed up, and she doesn't know how to comb her hair at all.

After thinking about it, Mu Yunjin sighed sadly, she would have brought that girl Zixiang out if she knew it earlier, and now she is used to being served by others, without Zixiang, she really can't take care of herself.

After a while, after Ding Xian's knock on the door sounded again, Mu Yunjin opened the door.

"Huang..." Ding Xian looked at Mu Yunjin who was standing at the door, he was at a loss for words, the words were choked in his throat, and he turned to look at Chu Li.

Standing in the courtyard in white clothes, Chu Li caught a glimpse of a figure on one side, looked sideways, and a look of amazement flashed in his eyes.

Mu Yunjin didn't put any rouge or powder on her face, her plain face was facing the sky, her black hair was simply tied into a ponytail with a ribbon, and she was wearing simple plain clothes, the skirt only reached her calves, and she was wearing a pair of high tops underneath. Boots, the whole person looks very light and capable.

It is even more attractive than the delicate gouache makeup in the past.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Mu Yunjin thought that Chu Li thought she was ugly, so she flattened her lips, "I forgot to bring Zixiang when I went out, so I can't ask Guard Ding to help me make up and comb my hair, right?"

Ding Xian coughed and smiled mischievously, "It's okay for the little ones to fight and kill, but for the one who combs her hair and puts on makeup, I'd better invite Miss Zixiang to come."

"It's beautiful." Chu Li curled his lips slightly and spoke slowly.

Hearing Chu Li's praise, Mu Yunjin didn't even realize that there was a blush on her face, she raised her eyebrows and looked at Chu Li, "Your Highness the Sixth Prince still has eyes."

After speaking, Mu Yunjin remembered to observe the house.

When I came here last night, because the night was relatively dark, it looked like a small courtyard. After looking carefully at this moment, I found that there is a passage behind. At a glance, there are many patterns inside.

"Let's go." Chu Li squinted at Mu Yunjin, then walked towards the gate.

After leaving the house, a large alley came into view. Mu Yunjin walked beside Chu Li, looking around at the novelty from time to time.

"Remember, you and I are not allowed to reveal our identities here, we are just ordinary business people." Chu Li looked sideways and told Mu Yunjin.

Mu Yunjin nodded, expressing her understanding.

After a while, after passing through this alley, Chu Li brought Mu Yunjin to the main street of Heyue City.

At this moment, the sky had just dawned, it was still early, and there were not many people on the street, only some hawkers selling breakfast and some aunts who went out to buy vegetables were walking on the road.

Mu Yunjin didn't take a few steps before she smelled the scent coming from the side of the road. Just when she was about to buy some sweet cakes and steamed stuffed buns, Chu Li went into a restaurant.

In the elegant room of the restaurant.

"Master, what do you want?" A waiter came up enthusiastically, holding the menu.

"Bring over the best breakfast from your place." Ding Xian spoke for Chu Li.

Xiao Er laughed and walked away immediately.

After a while, the table was piled up with exquisite breakfasts, as well as pastries and porridge, but Mu Yunjin lost interest and was still thinking about the sweet cakes she saw on the side of the road just now.

"You guys eat first, I'll go out for a while, and I'll come back after I go." Mu Yunjin finished speaking and ran out.

Chu Li looked up at Mu Yunjin, then shook his head helplessly.

After Mu Yunjin left the restaurant, she ran to the biscuit stall just now, looking at the biscuits wrapped in honey, Mu Yunjin pursed her lips, "Boss, I want five."

"Okay!" The peddler immediately picked up a piece of greased paper and wrapped five cookies for Mu Yunjin, "The ones are still warm right out of the oven."

After Mu Yunjin paid the money, she took the greased paper, picked up a cookie, and ate it happily.

After returning to the restaurant, before entering the private room, Mu Yunjin had already finished eating a cookie, then folded up the rest, stuffed it into her bosom, and walked inside.

In the private room, the master and servant are enjoying breakfast leisurely.

Mu Yunjin walked over, sat down, and pretended to scoop out a bowl of porridge for herself. When she was about to eat with the spoon, there was a mocking voice from the side.

"The scum around my mouth hasn't been wiped clean yet."

Hearing Chu Li's teasing sound, Mu Yunjin pursed her lips, wiped her mouth carelessly, and then pulled the corner of her mouth towards Chu Li.

"Prince Concubine, you are dressed like this today, you look like a chivalrous woman." Ding Xian smiled at Mu Yunjin.

Mu Yunjin slightly raised her eyebrows, clasped her fists together, "Will Guard Nading teach me a few tricks?"

"Let's leave this to His Majesty."

...

After leaving the restaurant, the number of people on the street gradually increased.

Mu Yunjin had been following Chu Li all the time, and she didn't know where Chu Li was going, but she was afraid that he would find it troublesome to take her out, so she didn't ask.

The summer sun was a bit harsh, and after walking along the street for about half an hour, the three of them gradually walked to the outskirts of the city, and finally stopped at the foot of a mountain.

"You want to go up the mountain?" Mu Yunjin lamented, and looked up at the mountain. In this weather, going up the mountain will probably make you dizzy.

"Are you going?" Chu Li naturally saw that Mu Yunjin was a little afraid of the heat, and looked up at her.

Mu Yunjin pursed her lips, and finally nodded, "Of course."

"Um."

Chu Li and Ding Xian walked in front, heading up the mountain road, and Mu Yunjin walked behind, but when they stepped into the mountain road, they clearly felt that they had passed through a strange air current.

After a pause, Mu Yunjin glanced behind her, and then took advantage of Chu Li not paying attention, reached out and touched the back, and really felt the air flow again.

Could it be that this mountain has mysterious techniques?

After thinking about it, Mu Yunjin pursed her lips slightly, and caught up with Chu Li's footsteps.

All the way up the mountain, Mu Yunjin observed the mountain from time to time, but most of her thoughts stayed on Chu Li in front of her.

Mysterious.

A while later, when walking halfway up the mountain, Chu Li turned sideways, brushed away some weeds, and turned into a dark cave.

Mu Yunjin looked at this scene with some novelty, and immediately trotted in.

As soon as I entered the cave, there was a burst of coolness.

After entering the cave, Chu Li took the jade pendant, followed the path in the cave, and then walked down the steps with gentle steps.

After a while, Chu Li stopped in a place that looked like a pond.

Mu Yunjin also stopped, and took a look at the pond. At a glance, there were many lotus leaves floating on the pond before, but none of them were blooming.

"What is this?" Mu Yunjin couldn't help asking.

"Hei Lian." Chu Li gently parted her thin lips.

When Mu Yunjin heard this, she frowned slightly, "A black lotus?"

"En." Chu Li nodded.

Mu Yunjin frowned, couldn't help squatting down, and observed these black lotuses more closely. It is rumored that white lotus symbolizes purity and black lotus symbolizes darkness.

Chu Li has raised so many black lotuses here, what are they doing?

"Your Highness, the Taoist priest once said that the black lotus would take three years to bloom, and now there are still a hundred days left. I wonder if the black lotus will really bloom." Ding Xian said standing aside.

"What's so magical about this black lotus? It will take another three years to bloom?" Mu Yunjin turned her head to look at Chu Li.

Hearing this, Chu Li spoke slowly, with a light tone, "Because of the magic, I have to wait for three years."

"..." Mu Yunjin was at a loss for words, and really wanted to complain, is there any difference between what you always say and what you don't say?

Although I thought so in my heart, I was really curious about these black lotuses raised in this cave. Could it be related to what Chu Li has been looking for?

This man, there are so many secrets.

...

After coming out of the cave, Ding Xian stepped up to Chu Li's side and asked, "Now, do you want to see the old Taoist?"

Chu Li paused for a moment, then glanced at Mu Yunjin, with some thoughts in his eyes.

Seeing this, Mu Yunjin knew that Chu Li didn't seem to want to take her with her, so she said wisely, "You guys go, I happened to see a lot of novel things on the street just now, so I can go shopping alone."

"Also, I also recognize the way back." Mu Yunjin added.

Hearing this, Chu Li pursed his lips, then nodded slightly, "Then you should be careful alone, and draw out the hidden guards if you have something to do."

"En." Mu Yunjin slightly hooked her lips.

After the two finished speaking and reached a consensus, Chu Li and Ding Xian tiptoed, and both flew away from here with lightness kung fu. In the blink of an eye, their figures disappeared from Mu Yunjin's eyes.
