Chapter 36 Just make her kneel down and apologize



Jiang Muyu said: "Mother is going to the temple to pray for Tangtang, wishing her peace, happiness and healthy growth."

Tangtang curled her lips and said unhappily, "Why not let Tangtang go with us?"

"We are leaving the city today. The carriage is bumpy and it rained yesterday, so the road is slippery. It's not convenient for you since you are still young. Can I take you there when you are a little older?"

"Okay." Although Tangtang was still not very happy, she agreed obediently.

Jiang Muyu kissed her on the cheek and said, "When mom comes back, I'll give Tangtang a gift."

Tangtang's eyes lit up immediately, and she clapped her hands and said, "Great, great."

After coaxing Tangtang, she went back to her room and changed into plain clothes. She didn't want to dress too ostentatiously as she was going to the temple today. She only decorated her hair with a few white jade hairpins and had no makeup on her face.

"Go see if Eighth Girl has packed everything."

"Yes." Yunshan stepped out.

Jiang Muyu took a sip of tea and looked through the account book, busying himself in his spare time.

Soon, Yunshan came back and said as soon as he entered the door: "I know she went to the temple to burn incense, but those who don't know would think she was hanging a sign to attract customers."

Jiang Muyu chuckled and said, "What are you talking about?"

"My lady, you don't know that when I went to the Eighth Lady's courtyard just now, her maid wouldn't let me in, saying, 'Our lady is getting dressed. She's in her prime and needs to dress up properly.' Her tone was as if we were living in her house, with no distinction between the main and the secondary." Yunshan imitated Caiyu's tone, looking like a funny peacock.

Jiang Muyu was amused by her and put down the account book. "You have to dress up nicely. Maybe if she goes to the temple, she will find a match."

In fact, if Jiang Muxue hadn't come to invite her to Putuo Temple in person yesterday, she would have almost forgotten it. The original text mentioned that Jiang Muxue and Wei Jingkang met by chance in Putuo Temple.

Could it be that this is not a coincidence?

After waiting for a while, Jiang Muxue finally arrived. She bowed and apologized, "Xue'er is late. My unruly maid just bumped into the maid in your courtyard. It was Xue'er who was responsible. I hope you can forgive me."

Jiang Muyu sneered in her heart. She didn't believe that Caiyu would be so bold without Jiang Muxue's instruction. Jiang Muxue was sure of the original owner's arrogant character. She thought that as the Princess of Rui, she would not care about the conflict between the two maids, so she deliberately disliked her.

Unfortunately, she is not the original Jiang Muyu.

She smiled softly and said, "How can you blame my sister? The maid was ignorant. Just let her kneel down and apologize to Yunshan."

After hearing the first half of the sentence, Jiang Muxue thought that she would ignore these trivial matters as she did in the past, but she was stunned after hearing the second half, and she almost couldn't maintain her outward harmony.

"Sister? What do you mean?"

Jiang Muyu was still smiling, but her eyes turned cold. "It means literally. Is there a word that you don't understand, sister?"

Jiang Muxue secretly clenched her hands in her sleeves, and after a moment's pause, she regained her usual smile, "I understand, sister, it was Caiyu's fault. I'll let her pay Yunshan back."

"Miss..." Caiyu behind her pulled her sleeve, with reluctance on her face.

Jiang Muxue pulled out her sleeves with a little effort and said gently, "Caiyu, you are indeed wrong in this matter."

Caiyu finally understood that Jiang Muxue would not plead for her, and she could not afford to offend Princess Rui.

She looked at Jiang Muyu, then at Yunshan who was looking smug beside her, gritted her teeth, walked forward, and knelt down with a thump, "Sister Yunshan, I was wrong today."

Yunshan scratched his ear and said, "What did you say? It was too quiet. I didn't hear you."

Caiyu took a deep breath and raised her voice, "Sister Yunshan, I was wrong today and offended you. I hope you can forgive me."

Yunshan was extremely happy and couldn't help laughing. "Stand up. I'm a magnanimous person and I won't argue with you."

Caiyu felt aggrieved, but she had no choice but to endure it.

Jiang Muyu was watching the show from the side, laughing out loud in his heart. The feeling of being overwhelmed by this status was too good. But he couldn't stand Jiang Muxue's green tea behavior. She seemed to be very friendly with her on the surface, but secretly made do with her and cursed her every day.

"That's enough." Jiang Muyu saw that the master and servant had been frustrated enough, so he spoke up, "Let's just forget about this matter. We should go out, otherwise it will be dark by then."

Jiang Muxue was so upset inside, but on the surface she still had to compliment her, "Sister is right, it was Xue'er who kept you waiting for a long time."

"It's okay. My sister is still in her prime and needs to dress up nicely."

Jiang Muxue: “…”

A few people walked out of the mansion and saw Liang Qingchen waiting beside the carriage.

Jiang Muyu asked, "Is your Majesty not busy today?"

Liang Qingchen said: "The emperor has granted me two days' leave."

"Oh, so what is this, Your Majesty?"

"I will go to the temple with you to burn incense."

"There's not enough room in the carriage for so many people."

"No problem, I will ride a horse."

"Uh..." Jiang Muyu couldn't find an excuse to stop him from going, so she pursed her lips and said, "Whatever you want."

She was helped into the carriage by Yun Xuanxun.

This time when we went to Putuo Temple, the royal palace sent out two carriages and a team of mounted guards.

Jiang Muyu and Jiang Muxue sat in one carriage, with only Yun Xuan serving them. The rest of the maids sat in the carriage at the back, while Liang Qingchen actually rode on a tall horse and walked at the front of the team.

Although there was thunder and rain last night for most of the night, it did not rain today. However, the sky was still a little cloudy and not many people left the city. They arrived at the foot of Mount Putuo smoothly.

You need to walk up the mountain. Looking up from the bottom, you can vaguely see the outline of a tall tower. That should be the tallest pagoda in Putuo Temple.

The winding and lengthy staircase stretched as far as the eye could see. Jiang Muxue frowned as soon as she got off the carriage and complained, "Why don't you build a road to get up? I'll be exhausted after climbing such a long staircase."

Jiang Muyu secretly rolled his eyes and said, "Coming to the temple to burn incense is a sign of piety. You want Buddha to pave the way for you?"

Liang Qingchen was amused when he heard her words, "Our Zhao Zhao is really eloquent."

She didn't know why, but she felt a little uncomfortable when she heard these small words.

She started up without saying a word.

Jiang Muxue moved closer to Liang Qingchen and asked in a sweet voice, "Prince, what happened to my sister?"

"It's getting late. She might be in a hurry to get on the road." Liang Qingchen moved to the side and quickened his pace.

Jiang Muxue curled her lips and followed.

There were more than a thousand steps, but Jiang Muyu was already panting halfway up the stairs. She leaned against a tree by the roadside and hammered her legs.

Yun Xuan opened the small bamboo cup he carried with him and handed it to her, "My queen, have a drink of water to calm down."

"Thank you." She took it and took a sip.

The water was warm, with a fresh scent of bamboo, and very soothing to the throat. She drank several gulps before stopping.

"You don't have enough physical strength." Liang Qingchen walked up to her.

Jiang Muyu saw his calm and relaxed look and felt jealous. She thought, "Is this guy a devil?"

Liang Qingchen saw that her eyes were wide open, her cheeks were puffy, and her mouth was pouting. She looked exactly like Tangtang when she was angry.

They are truly mother and daughter.

He raised his index finger and poked her face, his eyes curved with a smile, "Are you so tired? How about I carry you up."

Jiang Muyu didn't bother to be polite with him and said, "Turn your back and squat down."

Liang Qingchen did as he was told. Jiang Muyu leaned over and lay on his back. He hooked his hands around her knees and said, "Hold on tight. I'm not responsible if you fall."

Jiang Muyu followed her instructions and hooked her hands around his neck, but she tightened her grip intentionally. He leaned back subconsciously, and the back of his head hit her front teeth. They both groaned in pain, and she immediately loosened her grip.

"Are you stupid?" Liang Qingchen scolded.

Jiang Muyu touched his mouth awkwardly and let out two hums from his throat as his final protest.

Liang Qingchen chuckled helplessly, stood up, and continued walking up with her on his back.
