After drinking the tea, Concubine Qin put down the teacup, and Nanny Qu came by, holding a brocade box in her hand.

Concubine Qin took the brocade box, opened the lid, and a ruby-colored bracelet came into view, This is the wedding gift that your grandfather gave to Ai's family back then, and Ai's family has kept it until now, so let's give it to you now.

Thank you, grandma. Mu Yunjin didn't shirk, and reached out to take the brocade box.

Concubine Qin nodded, looked at the time, and said, Although Ai's family wants to keep the two of you for lunch, today is still the day when Jin'er returns to Ning. You should go back to Xiangfu first.

Hmm. Chu Li hummed lightly.

After leaving the Plum Blossom Court, Mu Yunjin put the brocade box given by Concubine Qin into Zixiang's hand, and said to Zixiang, I'm in the Shihua Pavilion, so there shouldn't be anything else?

Zixiang thought for a while, then shook her head, Basically there are none left, the servants have been cleaned up by Miss.

When I was packing up, I didn't see Miss's jade pendant, so it should still be with His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince. Zi Xiang added, looking at Mu Yunjin.

Mentioning the jade pendant, Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows slightly, and almost forgot about it, then she seemed to think of something again, and looked at Chu Li, The thirty thousand taels of gold, you can give it to me when you go back.

Now that she has married into the Sixth Prince's Mansion, she might leave at any time one day, so it's better to prepare some back roads.

When Chu Li heard Mu Yunjin's words, he looked at Mu Yunjin calmly and nodded slightly.

...

Come back, come back!

In the front hall of Mu Xiangfu, the housekeeper hurried into the front hall after seeing the carriage parked at the door.

After hearing this, Mu Xiang, who was already prepared, sat up and walked towards the door.

Before they stepped out of the gate, they saw Chu Li and Mu Yunjin walking side by side. The two were dressed in purple clothes, shining brightly against the sunlight.

The old minister pays homage to His Highness the Sixth Prince, and the Sixth Concubine... As soon as Mu Xiang went out, he stroked Chu Li and Mu Yunjin.

Mu Yunjin's heart shuddered, and she frowned slightly, only to see that Wei Hanqiao, Luo Ningyu and others also came up behind Mu Xiang, and greeted them both, and they all called her the sixth prince concubine.

Mu Yunjin felt awkward in her heart.

Mu Xiang doesn't need to be too polite. Chu Li said indifferently, and directly called Mu Xiang by his official name, and did not call him father-in-law.

Although Mu Xiang was a little displeased, he didn't dare to say more, and said to Chu Li with a smile, The house has prepared tea and snacks, please move the sixth prince and concubine to the front hall.

In the front hall, Chu Li and Mu Yunjin were arranged to sit in the upper seats, while Mu Xiang bent down and sat on the side, and then gave Luo Ningyu a wink.

Luo Ningyu immediately understood, and said with a smile, Young Yunjin, you shouldn't have caused trouble to His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince, right?

No. Chu Li shook his head.

That's good, that's good. Luo Ningyu smiled awkwardly, seeing Chu Li's attitude was cold, and didn't know what to say next.

Mu Yunhan was coming in from the outside at this time, and when he saw that Mu Yunjin and Chu Li had returned, he clasped his fists together, I've seen the sixth prince and concubine.

Major General Mu is exempt. Chu Li squinted at Mu Yunhan and said.

Mu Yunjin was also a little helpless towards this big brother, and smiled at Mu Yunhan, Brother, you weren't in the mansion this morning, where did you go?

Your elder brother was just appointed by the emperor as a major general, and he just came back from the barracks outside the city. Mu Xiang replied for Mu Yunhan.

Mu Yunjin nodded upon hearing this.

After Mu Yunhan took his seat, another green figure came in from the direction of the back garden. Mu Lingzhu walked into the front hall with small steps, her face pale.

Seeing that it was Mu Lingzhu, Mu Xiang changed his expression slightly, Why did you come out? Didn't I say that you are not allowed to step out of the Pearl Tower without my order?

Looking at this once beloved daughter, even though Su Biqing took all the responsibilities before he died, if Mu Lingzhu was really innocent, he would not believe it completely, and felt more or less disappointed.

Father, please forgive me. My daughter heard that my sister is returning to Ning today, so I came out to see her.

After saying that, without waiting for Mu Xiang to speak, he knelt down to Chu Li and Mu Yunjin, The Lingzhu is for His Highness the Sixth Prince, and the Sixth Prince's concubine pays her respects.

Chu Li didn't make a sound.

Mu Yunjin glanced at Chu Li, seeing that he didn't seem to care about Mu Lingzhu, then said slightly, Get up.

Thank you, Your Highness Sixth Prince, Sixth Prince's Concubine. Mu Lingzhu stood up with Hongxia's support, and the moment she raised her eyes, a strange gaze fell on Mu Yunjin.

Mu Yunjin looked at Mu Lingzhu, and seeing her clenched her fists and pursed her lips tightly, she knew that she was trying her best to suppress her emotions.

That's right, the man I've admired for eight years has become my 'brother-in-law', and no one can accept it.

During lunch, Luo Ningyu warmly greeted Chu Li and Mu Yunjin to eat and drink.

Mu Yunjin looked at Luo Ningyu, who was usually quiet and introverted, and knew that it must be Mu Xiang's repeated entrustment, and it was really difficult for her.

Wei Hanqiao has become taciturn since the incident with Mu Yiyang, and now he is sitting on the table without saying a word.

For a lunch, the dinner table was full of embarrassment.

...

After lunch, Mu Yunjin didn't want to stay in the prime minister's mansion any longer, so she took the lead to say goodbye.

On the carriage, Mu Yunjin found a comfortable sitting position, breathed a long sigh of relief, the tea was served, Gui Ning was over, and it was time for her to be free and carefree.

After sitting in the carriage for a long time, seeing that the carriage had no intention of stopping, Mu Yunjin frowned slightly, opened the curtain, and looked out.

Is this going out of the city? Looking at the increasingly desolate terrain outside, Mu Yunjin looked at Chu Li.

En. Chu Li nodded.

Mu Yunjin curled her lips, crossed her arms, and stopped talking.

Your Highness, we're here. Not long after, the carriage stopped, and Ding Xian's voice came from outside.

Mu Yunjin got off the carriage first, and when she stood on the ground, she was a little surprised, What are we doing here at Shuiyun Temple?

After the words fell, Mu Yunjin felt that she had asked too much.

Chu Qingyuan once said that their biological mother, Concubine Rong, was imprisoned in this Shuiyun Temple. If she came today, she might also come to see Concubine Rong.

Thinking about this, a familiar figure came slowly, and said with a smile, I have seen the sixth prince, and I have seen the sixth prince and concubine.

The person who came was Master Huaiyuan.

Chu Li nodded, his complexion was not very good at this time, he pursed his lips, Take us to the secret room.

Okay, come with me.

Mu Yunjin followed behind the two, with some thoughts on her brows, the two seemed to be old acquaintances, and they seemed to have a good friendship.

Presumably, Chu Li has also been secretly worrying about Concubine Rong.

After walking all the way, before and after the gate of the courtyard with the thousand-year-old tree, Mu Yunjin's inexplicable sense of familiarity came again, and there was a strange feeling in her heart.

Mu Yunjin stopped in her tracks, looked towards the courtyard, frowned slightly, feeling sad in her heart.

In front, Chu Li and Master Huaiyuan sensed that Mu Yunjin hadn't followed, so they couldn't help but stop. Looking back, they saw a lavender figure staring in the direction of the ancient tree, with some sadness in their eyes.

as if...

who is waiting.

Mu Yunjin, hurry up and follow! Chu Li looked at her with such an expression, felt agitated for no reason, and looked at her with calm eyes.

Mu Yunjin paused, tilted her head and stared sharply, then walked over slowly.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Master Huaiyuan brought the two of them to a dark pavilion. Before entering the door, Master Huaiyuan specially prepared a lantern.

After pushing open the door of the dark pavilion and looking inside where she could barely see her fingers, Mu Yunjin finally understood the purpose of Master Huaiyuan preparing the lantern.

It turned out that some blindfolded person couldn't see it.

The inexplicable Mu Yunjin gloated, pursed her lips and smiled, and walked inside.

After entering the dark pavilion, Master Huaiyuan walked in the front with a lantern, and Mu Yunjin walked in the back, but he could clearly feel the slow pace of the front.

It seems that a lantern can't solve anything.

Unable to help, Mu Yunjin couldn't help but ask, Didn't you bring my jade pendant?

Chu Li glanced at Mu Yunjin lightly, through the weak light, he could vaguely see the slight smile on her face.

Bring it. Chu Li replied.

Then why don't you take it out? There's no light here, and even I have a bit of trouble seeing the way. Isn't it even more difficult for you. Mu Yunjin laughed lightly.

After saying that, Chu Li took out a moon-white jade pendant from his bosom, and the jade pendant exuded white fluorescence, illuminating the entire dark pavilion at once.

Mu Yunjin only knew that the jade pendant would emit light, but she never expected that in this dark area, there would be a feeling of brilliance like a glazed light.

And through the jade pendant, one can vaguely see the word Yunjin in it.

Mu Yunjin couldn't help being curious again, who was her relatives, and why they were so determined to create such a precious jade pendant for her.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Master Huaiyuan stopped.

Why didn't you leave? Mu Yunjin was a little curious.

Master Huaiyuan smiled, and said helplessly, pointing to the open and flat place in front of him, The road ahead was set up by the deceased Abbot Kong Shi, and the formation is so exquisite that no one has been able to break it so far.

What's in there? Mu Yunjin asked.

Master Huaiyuan heard the words and cast a sharp look, The inside is the place where Concubine Rong is confined.

Speaking of this, Mu Yunjin finally understood. It turned out that Chu Li had always wanted to save Concubine Rong, but he couldn't break through the formation outside.

After thinking about it, Mu Yunjin turned her eyes to the front.

Master Huaiyuan glanced at Mu Yunjin, seeming to understand what Mu Yunjin was thinking at this time, took out a few beads that had been prepared from his sleeve, and threw them towards the open space in front of him.

Then I saw that those few beads were all condensed in mid-air, and then there was a burst of beeping alarms——

Hearing the siren, Mu Yunjin's eyes widened in disbelief, her eyes were full of astonishment, and she even licked her ears in disbelief.

The siren is still on.

Mu Yunjin frowned, listening to the sirens from all around, bit her lips, and lowered her eyes, why did this appear here, from the unique modern siren?

Could it be that this formation is modern technology?

Chu Li stared fixedly at Mu Yunjin, and had already seen all of her expressions just now, her thin lips were tightly pursed, showing no emotion.

The sixth concubine has heard this strange sound? Master Huaiyuan also noticed the change in Mu Yunjin, and couldn't help asking.

The siren gradually disappeared, and then Mu Yunjin came back to her senses, raised her eyebrows slightly, You just said that this formation was set by Master Kong Shi?
