I just want to live a good life

In the garden, Baozhu was taking her final rest, and several servants were moving pots of flowers onto the shelves under her command.

Seeing Su Nuan coming, several people stopped what they were doing and greeted her.

One of the servants shrank back when he saw Su Nuan.

Su Nuan was feeling upset and wanted to find something to do, but when she saw that the servant seemed to be afraid of her, she started to feel disgusted.

"You" Su Nuan pointed at the trembling servant, "What's your name?"

"My name is Cai Ya."

"Cai Ya, right? I've been in a bad mood these past two days and my hands are itching, so I chose you." Su Nuan deliberately pretended to be vicious.

"Choose, choose a servant for what?" Cai Ya asked nervously.

"What do you think?" Su Nuan approached Cai Ya slowly with a ferocious face. Cai Ya let out a scream and fainted.

This confused Su Nuan. Looking at the people who worked with Cai Ya, they all knelt in front of Su Nuan with different expressions, some begging, some complaining.

"Why are you all kneeling here? Hurry up and save people!"

Su Nuan shouted loudly, which finally woke up the people kneeling on the ground and they hurriedly helped Cai Ya up from the ground.

"My Lady Concubine, how can we save her?"

"Send him to the hospital!"

After hearing this, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at each other.

"What's wrong?" Su Nuan asked.

A servant who seemed to be a bit braver replied, "Madam Concubine, it will cost a lot of money to go to the clinic, and Cai Ya simply can't afford that much money."

"Baozhu, go get ten taels of silver and give them to them, and quickly take Cai Ya to the clinic to see a doctor."

Under normal circumstances, Su Nuan would feel heartbroken if she took out ten hundred dollars, but now that human lives were at stake, she couldn't afford to feel stingy with the money.

After a lot of trouble, Cai Ya was finally carried to the clinic.

Since Su Nuan couldn't go with them because of her status, she sent Baozhu to go with them.

After everyone left, Su Nuan sat down on the stone bench, feeling extremely regretful.

She just wanted to play a joke on him to ease her uneasy mood, but now, she scared him and made him faint. Not only would she have to spend money on treatment, but she was even more anxious than before.

After sitting for a while and seeing that it was almost time, Su Nuan stood up, straightened her skirt, and strode towards Mu Yunting's study.

In Mu Yunting's study, the three characters "Nian Yue Xuan" were written in thick black ink on the lintel. Su Nuan looked at these three characters for a long time.

Until Lu Zhu came forward with tea, "My Lady Concubine, His Highness is waiting for you inside, please follow me in."

Su Nuan hasn't seen Lu Zhu since the last time she drove Zhang Shun away. Unexpectedly, there was no tension at all when they met again. Su Nuan really admired Lu Zhu's scheming.

After entering the house, Su Nuan first looked around. This study room really has a literary charm. Everywhere you look, there are books, full to the brim.

Mu Yunting was sitting behind the desk, holding a book in his hands, seemingly reading with great interest. He did not even look up when he heard someone come in.

"Your Highness, the Concubine is here."

Lu Zhu's words finally made Mu Yunting look up at Su Nuan, but he only glanced at her, and after that his eyes returned to the book.

Luzhu put the teacup on the desk, picked up the tea tray and walked out.

Seeing that Mu Yunting had no intention of paying attention to her, Su Nuan found a chair nearby and sat down without hesitation.

Apart from the books, there was only one strange presence in the room, Mu Yunting, so Su Nuan's gaze naturally fell on him.

His hair was neatly combed, and his skin was pale. Perhaps because of the lack of eyes, his eyebrows and eyes looked much gentler and very nice. His nose was straight and delicate, and paired with his clear skin, it was pleasing to the eye. His lips were a little thin, but the lip color was beautiful. Su Nuan remembered that she had bought a lipstick in this color.

Just when Su Nuan wanted to look further down, Mu Yunting finally put down the book in his hand and looked up at Su Nuan. His originally gentle eyes suddenly became cold and arrogant, instantly shattering the perfect picture that Su Nuan had just drawn in her mind.

"As agreed, I'll give you a chance to talk to me. If you have anything to say, just say it quickly." Mu Yunting's voice was as cold as ever.

Su Nuan secretly spit in her heart. This man is like a painting when he is not speaking, but once he speaks, people want to tear the painting into pieces. He always looks high and mighty, afraid that others will forget that he is the crown prince of the dynasty.

"Since Your Highness has said so, I won't beat around the bush." ​​Su Nuan leaned back in her chair, and her previous uneasiness was swept away along with her dissatisfaction.

"I want to talk to His Highness about our marriage."

Mu Yunting raised his eyebrows. Su Nuan understood that this raised eyebrow was another question, so she continued tactfully, "On the first day of marrying into the Crown Prince's Mansion, His Highness had already expressed that he had no good feelings towards me. And I have never coveted the status of the Crown Prince's concubine."

She chose her words carefully, observing Mu Yunting's reaction, wanting to make her meaning clear without sounding too pitiful.

"But whether Your Highness accepts it or not, and whether I want to or not, I have become your concubine. So instead of disliking each other, we should just get along."

Mu Yunting asked, "How do you think we can achieve peace?"

Seeing that Mu Yunting seemed very interested, Su Nuan immediately perked up, "Let's put aside our previous prejudices. It would be best if we could become friends. When we feel lonely, we can have someone to chat and drink with. If we really can't be friends, it doesn't matter. We can just live our own lives and not care about each other. In short, we should not be enemies."

Mu Yunting was silent, as if he was really considering Su Nuan's words. After a moment, he said, "Your peaceful coexistence is beneficial to you no matter how you look at it. It doesn't seem to have any effect on me."

"How could that be!" Su Nuan stood up from the chair and walked straight to the desk. "More friends are always better than more enemies. Maybe one day a small figure like me can come in handy. For example, next time you see Miss Cheng, Your Highness can just send me to deal with her. I will never let the words 'Crown Prince' pollute Your Highness' ears again."

Su Nuan saw clearly how Mu Yunting treated Cheng Ansu outside the palace gate last time. Mu Yunting did not have the slightest affection for this Miss Cheng, and even felt a little disgusted with her. That was why she dared to say such words.

"Besides that?" Mu Yunting asked with a smile, "Cheng Ansu and I don't meet very often, so it's okay to hear her say 'Prince brother' occasionally. You are not of much use in this regard."

Su Nuan took a deep breath, and only regarded Mu Yunting as a difficult party A, and replied: "My role is certainly not as simple as just helping Your Highness to block Cheng Ansu. Your Highness, think about why the emperor chose Your Highness to marry my father. After all, the emperor just wants to marry Your Highness a concubine. If the emperor knows that you and I don’t get along well, will he help Your Highness marry a second or third one? As for me, I think I can still control myself and strictly abide by Your Highness’ rules and not disturb Your Highness, but I don’t know whether others will. What if the second or third one is as enthusiastic as Miss Cheng, Your Highness will have a hard time returning to this mansion in peace!"

The more Su Nuan spoke, the tighter Mu Yunting's brows furrowed. As soon as Su Nuan finished speaking, Mu Yunting said in a sonorous voice: "Just as you said, I will live in harmony with you!"
