Chapter 88

After asking, Mu Yunjin only felt that she was talking nonsense, and now the outside was full of imperial guards brought by Qin Taifei, guarding tightly. If Chu Li returned to his room, it would be revealed that the two of them are not real husband and wife, it is necessary not to blow their cover.


Thinking about it, before Chu Li opened his mouth, she rolled up the quilt on the bed, threw it into the rocking chair at the side and took out a new brocade quilt from the wardrobe and puts it on the bed.


"You can sleep on the bed, I'll sleep on the chair."


Mu Yunjin swept a look at Chu Li, and sat down on the rocking chair.


Chu Li's eyes glanced at Mu Yunjin, and he looked at the brocade quilt on the bed. His lips were hooked to a smile.


"Really a thoughtless one."


"What?"


Mu Yunjin, after hearing Chu Li's words, raised her eyelids and opened her mouth uncomfortably.


"It's not early. Are you going to sleep or not? I'm going to put out the candle."


"En."


Chu Li answered, and did not wait for Mu Yunjin to answer. He raised his hand and extinguished the candlelight.


The room was suddenly dark.


Through the faint light coming from the outside, Mu Yunjin could see a shadow walking slowly to the bed, and laid down slowly.


Seeing this, Mu Yunjin evoked a sly smile, did not expect Chu Li this person, felt wronged to be unable to return to his own room to sleep.


Qin Taifei is really amazing.


She doesn't know whether it was because Chu Li is in the room or because she is lying in the rocking chair. Mu Yunjin looked at the ceiling, and she didn't feel sleepy.


Looking at the direction of Chu Li, she could not see anything in the all black surrounding.


In a flash, Mu Yunjin suddenly frowned, her eyes firmly looked at the direction of Chu Li, she inwardly scolded herself for being stupid and having terrible luck. The Mysterious Spirit Sutra is still under the pillow!


What if it was discovered by Chu Li!


At this moment, Mu Yunjin showed no signs of sleepiness, biting her lip, she frowned and looked at Chu Li.


"Chu Li, are you still awake?"


After a long time, Mu Yunjin finally couldn't help making a sound.


"En."


Chu Li's indifferent voice came.


Seeing Chu Li is still awake, Mu Yunjin immediately sat up, lit the candles, and the whole room lit up again instantly.


Mu Yunjin went to Chu Li's bedside, bit her lip and glanced at the pillow. Fortunately, the book was still under it and was not found by Chu Li.


Chu Li slowly opened his eyes and looked at Mu Yunjin standing at the bedside.


"What are you doing?"


"I.…."


Mu Yunjin blanked for a moment and did not know what excuse to pull, she looked at Chu Li for a while then she bit her lip and said:


"I can not sleep, let's go out to watch the stars!"


After saying that, even Mu Yunjin could not bear to endure this kind of bad excuse.


"In the middle of the night, you still had this refined and elegant idea."


Chu Li's eyebrows raised, and his words contained a mocking tone.


Mu Yunjin pouted, pulled a long face, and added:


"I can't sleep, I want to go to the roof, you could take me up."


"Okay?"


Mu Yunjin looked at Chu Li.


Chu Li looked at her, and did not move his eyes for a long time. At last, he nodded.


"Let's go."


"En, then you go out first. I'll change my clothes."


Chu Li agreed, and got up and walked outside.


Seeing Chu Li walked out of the door, Mu Yunjin immediately reached under the pillow, and threw the Mysterious Spirit Sutra under the bed, then she put on a coat, and went out.


(TL: Yunjin, don't you have any other hiding place except for the bed?!)


When she stepped out of the house, Mu Yunjin saw Chu Li standing at the door, his face expressionless and his eyes cold.


The guards in the courtyard looked at Chu Li and Mu Yunjin, both of whom went out in the evening, with curious eyes, but they soon turned away and dared not look at Chu Li any more.


"All right?"


Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin in the eyes.


Mu Yunjin nodded, in fact, the moment she left the door, she wanted to withdraw back, its deep in the night to look at a ghost star ah.


But I just pulled a rotten excuse to have Chu Li go out, and now if I call him back, it might cause this Liu huangzi to be provoked negatively.


Forget it. Let's just watch the stars for a while.


"Take me up."


Mu Yunjin stretched out her fingers and pointed to the roof above.


After that, Chu Li stretched out his arms and held her waist in his embrace and left the ground on his toes. Soon he stood on the roof of the bedroom.


Mu Yunjin sat down, feeling uncomfortable, and took a half-lying position, looking up at the stars in the night sky, and yawned.


So sleepy.


Chu Li sits at the side, and saw her yawning, slightly narrowed his eyes.


"Didn't you want to see stars?"


"En, looking at the stars."


Mu Yunjin pulled the corners of her mouth and barely opened her eyes to see the stars. But when the stars filled her vision and the summer breeze came, Mu Yunjin yawned and soon closed her eyes.


Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin who had fallen asleep after only a moment, and sighed that he must be crazy to follow this woman.


A moment later, Chu Li hugged Mu Yunjin and flew down the roof, walked back to the bedroom, put Mu Yunjin on the bed, Chu Li glanced at the pillow and hooked the corner of his mouth.


(TL: He knows! He probably knew something is under the pillow but not that it it the missing mysterious sutra!)


……….


The next day, Mu Yunjin was awakened by someone.


When she slowly opened her eyes, she saw Zixiang standing by her bed.


"Xiaojie, get up quickly. Taifei niang is still in the fu. You have to go and greet the elder a good morning."


"En, I understand."


Mu Yunjin sat up, looked around, and glanced at the brocade quilt on the rocking chair, and looked at where she was now.


"Chu Li?"


Asked Mu Yunjin.


Zi Xiang smiled.


"His Highness Liu Huangzi got up early and is in the front hall."


Mu Yunjin nodded and walked out of bed. Thinking of going to Zhang Zhou City with Chu Li today, she said to Zixiang:


"Help me pack some light clothes. I'm going out with Chu Li today."


"Yes, xiaojie."


In a short while, Mu Yunjin is dressed in a casual clothes and her hair is tied with a ponytail, and strode towards the front hall.


As soon as she reached the front hall, she saw Qin Taifei sitting in the main seat, laughing and chatting with Shen momo.


"Zumu."


Mu Yunjin entered the door and greeted Qin Taifei.


Qin Taifei looked at Mu Yunjin, she is first slightly frozen, looked up and down for a while, immediately laughed.


"Jin'er's manner of dressing, really stands out from the ma.s.ses."


"Does Zumu feel it isn't good looking?"


Mu Yunjin smiled.


"En, looks good."


Mu Yunjin smiled, then turned her eyes and swept a look on the side. She saw Chu Li sitting on one side drinking tea. She remembered the unexpected incident of her watching the stars last night. Mu Yunjin does not dare to observe Chu Li's expression at this time.


On the breakfast table, Mu Yunjin immersed herself with a bowl of millet porridge, and Qin Taifei sat down beside her, unable to stop talking.


"Aijia heard that you two went to see the stars last night?"


"...…"


Mu Yunjin almost sprayed her porridge from her mouth, she made a sidelong glance towards Chu Li, and found that he was also looking at her.


"I laid down for so long, and was unable to sleep, so we went out to look at the stars."


Mu Yunjin saw that Chu Li did not to speak, so she made a sound explanation.


Qin Taifei covered her mouth and smiled.


"Seeing you newly weds are having good affections, aijia is relieved, today when you go out to play, remember to have fun."


"Yes, zumu."


……….


After Qin Taifei returned to the palace, Mu Yunjin took her bundle of things from Zixiang and looked at Chu Li.


"When are we leaving?"


"Now."


Chu Li replied.


Mu Yunjin nodded and was about to follow Chu Li out of the door when Ding Xian stopped her and handed her a bundle.


"Huangzi fei, this is His Highness'."


"I……"


Mu Yunjin looked at the bundle, she very much want to thrash Ding Xian.


"So, I also have to take his bundle?"


Ding Xian squeezed a smile.


"It seems so."


Mu Yunjin stared at Chu Li's back, but when she thought about the fact that she will go and take gold this time, she could not attend to these small details. She reached out and took the bundle in Ding Xian's hand and kept up with Chu Li's pace.


Chu Li walked all the way to the back door of the fu. When they reached the back door, Mu Yunjin saw two horses parked there.


"Can you ride a horse?"


Chu Li went to one of the horses and gently stroked the horse's head.


"Of course, don't underestimate me!"


Mu Yunjin nimbly and gracefully mounted the horse.


Originally she was worried that Chu Li did not bring Ding Xian and will let her drive a carriage, now that they are riding a horse, it is much simpler.


Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin, and smiled.


They quickly rode to the direction out of the city. Mu Yunjin rode on the horse following Chu Li's side, and saw him detouring another path to avoid the gates of the b.u.t.terfly Flower city.


In a moment, the two of them are out of the city.


At last, outside the city, Chu Li went all the way to the south, followed by Mu Yunjin. Glancing at Chu Li's green colored horse and then looked at her red colored horse, she sighed slightly.


They are a pair of horses, one horse could travel thousands of miles in a day,the green colored horse. While the other is an ordinary red colored horse. She could not shorten the distance from Chu Li, considering her excellent horse skill.


Thinking of it, Mu Yunjin is not happy as she opened her mouth, whispering:


"Can you not stick to this disparity in treatment!"


Chu Li seemed to hear the murmurs of Mu Yunjin, slowing down, he waited for Mu Yunjin to catch up to him and smiled.


"Mu Yunjin, you seem to be dissatisfied?"


"No, I'm not dissatisfied."


Mu Yunjin flattened her mouth, looked up to the sky then rolled her eyes.


Seeing her duplicity, Chu Li slightly hooked his lips and teasingly said:


"You, woman, your horsemanship is so good, ben huangzi really have a new level of respect to you."


Unconcerned, she lifted an eyebrow and asked:


"Can't I ride a horse with you?"


Chu Li smiled lightly.


"We're here."


Mu Yunjin was stunned. She raised her eyes and saw the plaque of Zhang Zhou city.


"This Zhang Zhou city is quite near."


"En."


Chu Li nodded.


The two people stepped off the horse, and immediately an old man came out of the gate on the other side, and bent over them.


"Gongzi, Xiaojie."


When the words fell, the old man led the two horses away.


Mu Yunjin saw it and was a little surprised, she looked at Chu Li.


"Do you know him?"


"En."


When Chu Li's words fell, he did not look at Mu Yunjin and walked to enter the city.


Mu Yunjin followed his footsteps. Suddenly there is a sense of excitement that can not be stopped. If you want to take gold, you will be glad to think about it.


Chu Li came to a stop outside the city wall, and Mu Yunjin stopped, looking at the towering wall in front of him.


"Why don't you go through the city gate, do you want to go through here?"
