Princess of the Past and Present

Chapter 10 First Taste of Vinegar

Mo Shuang calmly said, "Go fetch water."

"Also, the young master still wants to take a bath?" Dong Ling asked weakly.

"Just fetch a basin of water."

The little girl nodded, "I'll go now."

After fetching water, Mo Shuang washed her face.Dongling stretched out his hand, holding a box containing ointment.

"What?" Mo Shuang asked.

Dong Ling lowered her head, her face was flushed, "I asked Uncle Chen before, and he said, this ointment has been used, and it is better. So, I keep it for the young master."

Mo Shuang said blackly, "I'm fine, take it back."

"Oh." Dong Ling stuffed it into his sleeves.

"It's late, go and rest."

"Enn, young master also rest early." Then, holding the water basin, he retreated.

In the early morning of the next day, Mo Shuang practiced sword in the courtyard, all in white, hidden by the surrounding green leaves.

Mu Jin saw the people practicing swords here from a distance, so he stopped and watched for a while.Watching and watching, he couldn't move away, and gradually became fascinated.

"Your Highness, it's time to go to court." Uncle Chen beside him cautiously reminded.

Mu Jin came back to his senses with a guilty conscience, turned his head to glance at the white figure in the distance, and walked away.

Walking to the door, the butler reminded again, "His Royal Highness, the moon is full tonight."

When Mu Jin heard that it was a full moon night, the first reaction in his heart was joy, but then his face turned cold, "I know."

When they arrived at the court hall, the officials gathered together in twos and threes in the side hall, talking happily.As soon as Mu Jin walked in, officials saluted and greeted him one after another.

Zhe Kan stepped forward, gloating, "I heard that His Royal Highness was attacked last night, is this true?"

Mu Jin's heart froze, the news was really well-informed.Hearing that His Royal Highness was attacked, all the officials nearby surrounded him and asked warmly, "Where is His Royal Highness injured?"

Mu Jin said: "It's just a little flesh wound, it's fine."

"But who was found out?"

Mu Jin said casually: "It's just some nameless thieves who want money."

"The little thieves today are so lawless that they dare to attack His Highness the Crown Prince."

Yin Sheng sighed lightly, and said: "Last night, the old minister was negligent, and it is time to send more people to protect His Highness."

Mu Jin glanced at him lightly, "The prime minister has a heart."

Zhe Kan said with a smile: "His Royal Highness, you should be more careful when you go out next time, otherwise it will be worthless if you have troubles."

In front of all civil and military officials, Mu Jin remained calm and composed, "Thank you for reminding me, Brother Huang, I will definitely protect myself."

"That's good." He smiled dryly.

As the night deepened and the silver moon hung high, this was the third full moon night when Mo Shuang married into the Prince's Mansion.

The candles in the study room were still on, and Mo Shuang was drawing on the paper with a pen, while Dong Ling, who was rubbing ink, began to doze off again and again.After drawing a picture of hundreds of flowers, Mo Shuang put down her brush.

Whenever he was fascinated by the painting, he would forget the time. After finishing the painting, he would ask the maid next to him, "What time is it?"

Dong Ling shivered, "No, I don't know." Looking outside, "It must be very late."

Mo Shuang went back to the room, and Dong Ling went to fetch water.

The candle was still burning in the room, and when Mo Shuang pushed open the door, she saw a person sleeping on his side on the low couch by the window, with a quilt covering his body and a soft pillow on his head.

Mo Shuang froze for a moment, then remembered that he was going back to the main room to sleep when the moon was full today.

Dong Ling fetched hot water and was about to speak when Mo Shuang made a silent gesture to her.Dong Ling closed his mouth, noticing the person sleeping on the low couch, put down the water and went out.

Mo Shuang washed her face lightly, and saw that the window next to the low couch was wide open, so she went over and closed the window a bit to conceal it.

"Open." The person on the low couch said suddenly.

It turned out that he hadn't fallen asleep yet, so Mo Shuang reopened the window, only a little.Summer came, and there were many mosquitoes at night, so he just lay here with the window open, so it was no wonder he didn't get stung.

"Your Highness, go to bed and sleep." Mo Shuang said.

Mu Jin said: "It was you who said that you should take turns for the sake of fairness, but now you are going back on your word."

"You are the king, and I am the minister. There is no fairness or injustice between the king and the minister. It is only natural for the minister to serve the king."

Mu Jin sat up and looked at him with raised eyebrows, "It's only right for me to serve you?"

Mo Shuang said nothing, as a default.

Mu Jin suddenly took his hand and pulled it hard, and Mo Shuang was brought into his arms.Putting a hand on his chin, Mu Jin looked straight at him, touched his lips unexpectedly, and said in a low voice: "Is it only natural that I want you to sleep in bed?"

Mo Shuang slowly closed her eyes, and replied in a low, inaudible voice, "Yes."

Mu Jin looked at his drooping eyelashes, lightly pursed water-colored thin lips, tried his best to suppress the urge to kiss, and pushed him out with both hands, "But I'm not interested in men."

Mo Shuang took two steps back, managed to stand still, with a calm face, and said after a long time: "Your Highness, rest early."

Mu Jin watched him walk into the back room, his heart heaved violently, and he fell on the pillow all of a sudden, unable to calm down for a long time, then pulled Jin over his head and wrapped himself up.

Tossing and turning, it was difficult to fall asleep, and finally I just got up and lit a candle to read a book.

Hearing the sound of him getting up, Mo Shuang opened his eyes slightly, and closed them slowly again after a while.

On the second day, Mu Jin woke up on the table in the outer room, and at some point there was an extra coat on his body.There were two people in this room from the beginning to the end, and they didn't want to know who put the coat on him.His temperature was already on the coat, indicating that he had been wearing it for some time.

Could it be that Mo Shuang put it on him after he fell asleep yesterday?

Mu Jin stood up from the table, his arms were numb and sore, he looked up at the paper door, the sky was still only slightly bright.Peeping into the inner room, the curtain is still hanging.

He walked softly to the inner room, his unreasonable curiosity drove him to the bed, Mu Jin stood outside the bed curtain, raised his hand to touch the curtain, and opened it slightly.

On the couch, Mo Shuang just opened his eyes and happened to meet his eyes.With a shake of his hand, the curtain slipped from his fingertips and fell down again.

The left atrium was beating wildly, and even I couldn't understand why I did this.

He turned around and walked to the clothes hanger, putting on his clothes absent-mindedly.The person in the bed curtain remained silent, his clothes were placed next to Mu Jin, neatly placed.

After Mu Jin finished changing, he turned and went out the door.

It was rare for Mo Shuang to go out, and when he went out, he ran into Jing Lanzhou whom he met during the last trip to the lake.

Jing Lanzhou was very happy and couldn't hide the smile on his face, "Brother Yin and I are indeed destined to meet again in this vast sea of ​​people."

Mo Shuang said: "Brother Jing and I hit it off right away, so we are naturally blessed."

"Brother Yin, where are you going?"

"I want to go to the bookstore nearby."

"The Bookstore is a good place to go. I happen to be free and have nowhere to go. I wonder if I can go with Brother Yin?"

"of course."

The two walked side by side on the street, always having endless topics to talk about.

"I read a good book a few days ago. It was written by a poor talent in the previous dynasty. Although it is not well-known, I really benefited a lot after reading it."

"I wonder which good book it is?"

"This book is at my residence. If brother Yin wants to read it, I will give it to you next time we meet."

The two talked while walking, although it was the second time they met, they were like confidants for many years.

Jing Lanzhou and Xianjun Ziyue have known each other for hundreds of years, and have admired Xianjun Ziyue in their hearts for hundreds of years. It took a lot of effort to find out the preferences of Xianjun Ziyue. The same as when Xianjun was in, Jing Lanzhou got along with him with ease.

At this time, a luxurious carriage passed by on the street.Mu Jin, who was sitting in the carriage, happened to see a figure passing by on the street through the gap in the curtain that was blown open by the wind.Startled, he quickly picked up the curtain and looked out, just in time to see Mo Shuang walking side by side with a man in Tsing Yi, who seemed to be chatting happily.

Feeling choked up for no reason, Mu Jin yelled to the outside to stop, the carriage stopped, and Mu Jin stared at the blue and white figure that was going further and further away, with a cluster of flames rising in his eyes.

Outside there was a bodyguard sticking to the curtain, "What orders does Your Highness have?"

Mu Jin exhaled heavily and said, "Go back to the house."
