Traveling through time and meeting fellow villagers, the secret code is right

Ruoying and Chiying looked at their master with disbelief. They had been following him for so many years, but they had never seen him smile so easily. They couldn't help but look at me again. Maybe they wanted to see what kind of magic I had that could make him so happy.

That's right, the King of Jin was in a very relaxed mood at this time. He had been away from home for many years, and he was so busy with official duties that he didn't even have time to eat or drink water, nor did he have much time to think about other unnecessary things. After returning to Beijing, there were many things to deal with. Moreover, this was not as free as in the frontier. He was bound by rules everywhere. Even when he had a meal with his parents, he had to follow the rules of the monarch and his subjects. When had he ever talked and drank tea so easily? The carefree woman in front of him was strange. He suddenly found that he liked getting along with this woman very much. This idea scared him, and he could only use tea to cover up the strange thoughts in his heart.

"Stop calling me girly. I'm Xia Mu, you can also call me Mu Mu. All three of you can call me that." I glanced at the three of them.

Xia Mu. Prince Jin silently recited this name in his heart. He should ask someone to check it out later.

At this time, a group of people came outside. They saw the three horses tied at the door and looked up in our direction. One person got off the horse and ran upstairs to where we were. Ruoying and Chiying also saw them and stood up immediately.

"What's the matter?" Ruoying asked the person who came.

The visitor said something in Ruoying's ear.

"Master, go back," Ruoying winked at King Jin.

"Okay, let's go!" King Jin stood up and was about to leave. Ruoying called the waiter to settle the bill.

"Miss Xia, I have something urgent to attend to. We will take our leave now. See you later!" said the King of Jin.

"Oh, you're leaving now! Okay then! Goodbye!" I waved to him with my right hand.

"Goodbye? What do you mean?" Seeing him confused, I am even more confused. Why do I have to explain what I mean every time? It's so depressing.

"It means we'll see each other next time!" I said casually, impatiently.

"Oh! Then...bye!" With an expression of sudden enlightenment, he followed the group of people to the stairs.

I learned so quickly, I muttered to myself, but I didn’t say it out loud, because before I could say it, the person had already disappeared.

I was left there alone, staring blankly until it was almost dark before I went back.

As soon as I returned to the palace gate, I was stopped by the butler. The butler has been very good to me since I taught him how to play poker that day. He has been very considerate of food, clothing, and daily necessities. In addition, seeing that the prince and I were so close, and that the prince was also very good to me, he naturally didn't dare to provoke me. But looking at his expression now, it seemed as if there was someone inside who was even more untouchable to him than me.

"Miss, you are finally back. I sent people out to look for you but couldn't find you anywhere." The housekeeper was so anxious that he seemed to be sweating.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?" I asked, a little confused.

"The Crown Princess has been here for two hours. She said she wants to see you and she won't leave until you come back," the housekeeper said in a low voice.

It was only then that I noticed a luxurious carriage at the entrance of the palace.

"What princess? I don't know her. I only know her husband." I was puzzled.

"Hey! Girl, you and the prince should stay away from each other in the future. This is all I can say." The housekeeper looked helpless.

Palace Hall

"Sister-in-law, you suddenly came to my house just to see someone you don't know? Isn't this too strange? She has gone out and hasn't come back yet. How about I send someone to notify you when she comes back?" The King of Qin looked at the Crown Princess sitting in front of him with displeasure.

This Crown Princess was the charming woman who had cried so hard when the Crown Prince first came here. She was narrow-minded and jealous. The King of Qin knew that she might have heard that the Crown Prince had been running to his house these days and was getting along closely with Xia Mu. She might have misunderstood something, so she came to see her love rival.

The King of Qin only thought of a serious problem at this time. He was so happy that he forgot to avoid suspicion. The Crown Prince is not the same as before. He is naturally very cold to the women in the East Palace. The Crown Princess has been unable to find the reason. Now, she suddenly seems to have seen the problem of her husband's infidelity. It would be strange if she didn't come to find out the truth.

"King Qin, why are you so unwelcoming to me?" the Crown Princess said strangely.

"How could that be? It's just that it's getting late. If my sister-in-law stays too late in my brother-in-law's house, it will cause gossip," the King of Qin said embarrassedly.

"Gossip? King Qin, don't think I don't know the friendship between you two brothers. I just didn't expect you to help the prince keep a mistress in his golden house." The Crown Princess was relentless.

"What do you mean by a beautiful woman in a golden house? Things are not what you think. We are just friends," the King of Qin said unhappily.

"A man and a woman being friends? I've never heard of that! How can friends hug each other or ride on the same horse? Don't men and women need to avoid suspicion?" The Crown Princess' voice became a little sharp.

What a fool! This is not the way to catch an adulterer. He is so impatient! The King of Qin sneered.

"What? Nothing to say?" I rushed into the hall just as the Crown Princess said this.

"Qin, I heard that the Crown Princess is looking for me?" As soon as I came in, I moved closer to King Qin, my eyes fixed on this uninvited guest. She was a beauty with a good figure and good looks. Pei Yu was really lucky. But if she didn't put so much paint on her face, she would be more refreshing and beautiful.

The Crown Princess was also looking at me. The woman in men's clothing had a good-looking face, especially her big, lively eyes. However, she felt that she was not as good as her, so she smiled unconsciously, but there was a hint of contempt in her smile.

"What are you laughing at?" I asked bluntly.

"How dare you not kneel before the Crown Princess and be so rude?" If the girl next to her hadn't said anything, I really wouldn't have noticed her existence.

"Why should I kneel? I don't even have to kneel when I see the prince, why should I kneel to his wife?" I felt a little unhappy.

"You? What kind of power did the prince give you that you are so presumptuous?" The princess was a little crazy when she heard me mention the prince.

"I'm talking to you, sister-in-law. Xiao Mu is really just a good friend of me and the prince. Look, I'm getting along pretty well with her." Then she came over and put her right hand on my shoulder.

"King Qin, men and women should not touch each other. It's okay for a man like you to be casual, but how can this woman be so casual!" Seeing that I didn't shake off the King Qin's arm, the Crown Princess looked at the King Qin's hand on my shoulder with disdain.

"What do you mean by casual? Speak politely. It's nothing. What do you want to talk to me about? If you have finished talking, you can go back to your East Palace!" I said angrily.

"I'm here to warn you, don't set your sights on the Crown Prince. Even if you win the Crown Prince's favor and enter the palace as you wish, I won't let you have an easy time!" The Crown Princess said viciously.

"I have no interest in your prince, nor in entering the palace, don't worry~" I really didn't have any idea, so of course I was justified.

"There is no best. Anyway, I have said it. You can take care of yourself. Taohong, let's go!" Then she left with her maid.

"What the hell is going on!" I shouted at the King of Qin

"We can't help it. Maybe someone saw us three together and reported us. Never mind. I'll talk to my brother Yu later and let him handle it. You should be more cautious when you interact with him in the future. After all, this is not the modern world." King Qin comforted me and said

"I know. This woman is really not smart at all. How can she be so picky? Even if I am really someone close to the prince, she can't tolerate a woman from outside. How does she get along with the other concubines? There must be chaos every day. Brother Yu is so pitiful! No wonder he can't stay in the East Palace." I really feel sad for the prince

"That's why he always wanted to escape! Let's not talk about it anymore, let's go have dinner." King Qin took my hand and walked towards the dinner area.
