Xiao Chenyan was destined to be busy these days, and he also intended to reduce his appearances in the mansion to avoid that dirty thing from being an eyesore.
This deliberate leaving it alone also puts psychological pressure on that dirty guy, making him lose his temper.
Asuna really couldn't hold her temper anymore.
She wasn't a smart character either. Wu Peng created her with a drop of Qing Wu's blood from her previous life, but apparently, when Wu Peng created her, he forgot to give her a functional brain.
He is just a shell with an empty head, so empty that even mice would shake their heads when they see him.
Asuna asked her men to inquire and found out that Xiao Chenyan was not at home again, which made her even more upset.
She didn't want to wait any longer and decided to take the initiative.
Just then, the Prince of Ruyang's Palace sent an invitation. She learned that Mu Ying would also attend, and that the Princess Yan had declined due to something else. Asuna instinctively felt that this was an opportunity.
Usually in Prince Yan's Mansion, Princess Yan's spies are everywhere.
Once she leaves the house, won’t the world be hers?
Therefore, as soon as Mu Ying walked out of Prince Yan's mansion, he was stopped by someone.
"cousin."
Mu Ying looked in the direction of the voice and was stunned when he saw Asuna.
Asuna has been living in Prince Yan's mansion for a few days. Mu Ying knows that she is a fake and will not take the initiative to approach her.
So this was the first time we met.
When she saw Asuna's face which was 90% similar to Yun Zheng's, she couldn't help but be stunned.
What immediately came to my mind was an indescribable nausea.
But Mu Ying showed no sign of anger and nodded, "Princess."
She really couldn't utter the word 'cousin'.
Asuna noticed Mu Ying's indifference and sneered in her heart.
Guo Yan is a slut who currys favor with the powerful. She has been in Prince Yan's mansion for so many days, but the other party has not only not come to the door on his own initiative, but has not even sent anyone to say hello.
"I just returned to Dayong and I'm not familiar with the place. I just found out that my cousin also lives in Prince Yan's mansion, so I couldn't wait to come and see you."
Asuna put on a hypocritical face, pretending to be affectionate, and walked forward to hold Mu Ying's hand.
Mu Ying wanted to avoid it, but he held back.
She raised her head and met Asuna's gaze, her eyes also reddened: "You have suffered all these years. I was powerless to do anything for you back then, and now I am too ashamed to face you."
"Cousin, that's all I need to say. You are my only relative left in this world."
Asuna sighed, and seeing Wang Yulang standing next to her, she raised her hand to touch Wang Yulang's head.
The little guy immediately lowered his head and hid behind Mu Ying, looking shy and timid.
Asuna's hands hung in the air awkwardly.
Mu Ying smiled and said, "Don't be surprised, Princess. Yulang is a shy person."
"No, from my nephew's perspective, he doesn't look like his father, but rather like you, my cousin."
Hearing this "praise", the doorman couldn't help but look at Asuna twice more.
Even these old men with poor tongues found these words offensive. Was the princess deliberately praising someone in a covert way or was she really ill-equipped to speak?
Everyone knows that Master Yulang's uncle, Wang Yu, is a troublesome guy who favors his concubine over his wife. After Wang Yu was executed, no one has mentioned this man in front of Mu Yingzi for a long time.
Asuna chose to expose the secrets in person, which inevitably made people wonder about her intentions.
Mu Ying seemed to be touched by something sad. He lowered his head and his expression became gloomy.
Xiao Yulang bit his lip and pulled at the corner of Mu Ying's clothes.
Both of them looked like they were being bullied.
Asuna said that just now on purpose. She couldn't stand Mu Ying's "fawning on the powerful" and wanted to suppress him.
Don't think that just because her son has married into a rich family and has Huo Yi as his backer, she can show off her power?
This woman deserves a lesson for not bothering her own cousin but going to bother the princess instead.
"Don't worry, cousin. Now that I'm back, we will be sisters in harmony from now on. With me here, I will never let you be bullied by outsiders."
After Asuna gave a stick, she was ready to throw a carrot.
But there was a sneer, and the woman's voice was full of sarcasm: "Sister Mu Ying is a distinguished guest in Prince Yan's mansion, who would bully her?"
Huo Hongying asked Mu Ying to go out of the house, and Er came in person.
She was waiting in the carriage, and then she heard Asuna's nonsense. She couldn't hold back any longer and got off the carriage.
She stood in front of Mu Yingzi's face and looked up and down at Asuna with disdain: "Princess Qingwu? I heard that you grew up on the grassland. People on the grassland love tea and salt the most. You must have eaten a lot of both, right?"
Asuna had a hunch that Huo Hongying didn't say anything, but she didn't understand what she meant.
But Miss Huo was a generous person and explained it immediately.
"You smell like tea. I can smell it even from the carriage. You must have eaten a lot of salt. Why are you so 'idle'?"
Although Asuna didn't know Huo Hongying, she guessed her identity. She didn't even bother to look at him when he was mocked. "Who are you? The princess is talking to my cousin, why are you butting in?"
Huo Hongying directly pulled Mu Ying's hand and rolled her eyes at Asuna.
"Who do you care who I am? If you ask me, I have to answer. Do you want me to pay you if I answer you?"
Asuna was annoyed. Is this second daughter of the Huo family sick?
However, her purpose this time was to win over Mu Ying, so she swallowed her anger and looked at Mu Ying pretending to be aggrieved.
"cousin……"
Mu Ying smiled at her and said as if to smooth things over: "This is Miss Huo Er. She speaks frankly and has no ill intentions. Princess, please don't be offended."
Huo Hongying was most annoyed by the pretentiousness of the noble ladies in Beijing.
As soon as I saw Asuna's behavior, I felt disgusted.
She had heard of the name of the Marquis Zhenguo Mansion when she was young and had a strong fascination with it. Mu Ying would sometimes tell her about the interesting stories of his and Qing Wu's childhood.
Huo Hongying was fascinated by this unknown 'Princess Qingwu' and had feelings for her.
As a result, as soon as the two met, their feelings were shattered.
What the hell is this?
Her affected and sarcastic look revealed a sense of pettiness, and her eyes were full of cunning and calculation. If you said that she was more skillful and had smarter words, Huo Hongying would still think highly of her.
But both the means and the rhetoric are so clumsy.
A piece of useless trash who is beautiful but has no brains.
Huo Hongying is not one of those ladies who never leave the house. She has led troops in battles and had contact with many alien races.
Although the habits of the ethnic minorities on the western side of the desert are somewhat different from those on the grassland, they are all nomadic peoples, so their styles are pretty much the same.
Most of the women there are cheerful and outgoing, with a sense of wildness and ferocity.
But looking at the woman in front of her, to be honest, Huo Hongying really couldn't tell that she grew up on the grassland.
"Sister Mu, it's getting late. Let's go to the banquet quickly."
Mu Ying nodded and apologized to Asuna.
Asuna said, "Let's go to Ruyang Palace. The old princess has also sent a letter to the princess. We can go there."
Huo Hongying didn't want to go with her, and said angrily:
"I'm sorry, but my Huo family's carriage is small and can't accommodate so many people."
After saying that, she took Mu Ying and Wang Yulang and left. She sent the two of them to the carriage and hurried up, urging the coachman to hurry up! Oh no! Run!
It looked as if something dirty would stick to him if he left too late.
Asuna's face looked grim and she stomped her feet hard. She quickly got on her carriage and subconsciously took out the leather drum from her waist. Her bright red nails scratched the drum, making a harsh sound.
Cha Cha and Pearl waited on the carriage.
Qian Yi was indignant: "The second daughter of the Huo family is really arrogant. She relies on her brother who is a general to ignore you, the princess. Madam Mu seems to have no opinion."
"Those two guys look cowardly, as if they were manipulated by someone." Asuna said bitterly, "It's that bitch Huo Hongying, she's such an eyesore."
"Princess, don't be angry." Zhenzhu said softly, "They are just a few ordinary people. No one can protect them if they leave Prince Yan's Mansion."
"It's not easy for the princess to make Madam Mu obedient."
Asuna tapped her fingers on the drum, with a calculating look in her eyes, and said arrogantly, "Sisi, there are many ways to make ordinary people obedient."
The couple drum in her hand is no simple thing.
However, Asuna vaguely felt that there was something wrong with what Zhenzhu said, but she was so absorbed in dealing with Mu Yinglizi and Huo Hongying that she didn't think much about it.
Pearl had a smile on her face, but her eyes were looking outside the carriage. When her gaze fell on the door gods posted on the doors of every household along the way, a faint light flashed in her eyes.
