She was kind to them because she had just awakened from Hua Ling's body, and only they could help and take care of her. Even the snacks that had been dusty tasted delicious to her.
...
"Have you heard? The Grand Commandant has gone to the Princess's residence."
Xiao Xing loves gossiping, and she's always the first to know what happens in the manor. With her keen sense of events, Mu Run thinks she would be a really impressive reporter in modern times.
However, the gossip that Xiaoxing found out this time stunned Murun, who was eating noodles.
Qiaoyu's gossip spirit was also ignited, "What are you going to the princess's residence for?"
Xiao Xing replied, "I haven't found out yet. But usually it's the princess who comes to our Grand Commandant's residence; this is the first time the lord has gone to the princess's residence."
"Is it that the master intends to reconcile with the princess and let bygones be bygones?"
"Do you and the princess have some kind of grudge?" Mu Run asked.
Xiao Xing replied, "Of course there is. You came late and didn't know that the princess and the master had a big fight. She said that she was not a substitute and would not have children... I think the master must have someone he likes who looks like Princess Xiao'an."
“She looks just like Princess Xiao’an, isn’t she Princess Xiaoyu? Princess Xiaoyu died in the Kingdom of Wu.” Qiaoyu said, then suddenly put down the bowl of noodles in her hand. “I understand now. The reason why the lord led the army to attack the Kingdom of Wu is to avenge Princess Xiaoyu.”
"Yes, yes, that must be it. I heard that Princess Xiaoyu is a kind and beautiful princess, like a fairy. Like a fairy, just thinking about it makes people envious."
"Is Princess Xiaoyu really that good?" Mu Run didn't believe it; at most, she was just an ordinary person.
If she truly possessed the kindness and beauty of a fairy, how could she be so heartless and resolute as to abort her unborn child? After all, that child, once born, would be her flesh and blood, a quarter of Emperor Xiaozhi's bloodline.
I ate a whole meal, but all I heard was gossip about Fu Yunchen and the princess, and my stomach was completely full.
Even after going to bed at night, she still felt a tightness in her stomach and couldn't fall asleep, tossing and turning in discomfort.
Afraid of disturbing Qiaoyu and Xiaoxing's sleep, she got up and went outside for a walk, thinking she would go back when she felt sleepy.
She wandered around the garden alone, and when she saw a swing, she swung on it for a while.
Finally, I sat in the cold, windy pavilion, staring blankly at the fishpond not far away.
"Knowing you have a cold constitution, you still sit on the stone bench at night." A familiar voice, filled with concern and reproach, came from behind.
Mu Run stiffened, then turned around and looked at Fu Yunchen, "I'm hot."
"Really?" Fu Yunchen walked behind her, reached out and touched the back of her neck; it was cool to the touch...
"You'd better drink a bowl of herbal soup to warm yourself up now, otherwise you'll be rolling around on the floor with a stomachache tomorrow."
"Weren't you at the princess's residence? Why are you back?"
"How could I have discovered how naughty you were at night if I hadn't come back?" Fu Yunchen patted her head.
Mu Run tried to avoid his hand, but her body didn't move at all.
"Whether I'm healthy or not is none of your business. I'm just a little maid in this manor now, not Dark Raven."
"Are you unhappy that I went to the princess's residence?" Fu Yunchen's eyes were bright and mysterious, making anyone who looked into them feel uneasy and confused.
Mu Run looked into his eyes, about to nod in agreement with her inner thoughts, but reason prevailed in an instant, and she shook her head and said, "No, no, I'm not unhappy."
