Mu Manor.
In front of the courtyard.
Yu Yan 'er's face was pale and her expression was weak. Her lips were also devoid of blood. She looked outside the courtyard, wanting to see the figure that had returned.
Suddenly, in the distance, a servant dressed like a servant walked up to one of the group of servants and nobles who were standing guard. He whispered a few words into the servant's ear. The latter's expression lit up and he nodded slightly. Then, he passed the message to the personal maid of the Eldest Miss of the Yu Family.
The latter's body trembled as he came to Yu Yan 'er's side.
" Miss..." The maid's face was filled with joy.
"What's wrong?" Yu Yan 'er clenched her fists tightly and looked at the waitress with reddened eyes.
"Miss Yan 'er, it's done. His Majesty has issued an edict for the Yu family's case to be reopened.”The maid's face was filled with joy, and the scholars not far away also had smiles on their faces.
Yu Yan 'er also smiled. Her delicate little face was filled with a divine color. Her complexion had recovered a lot. It was as if she had seen the clouds and fog. A ray of dawn shone in the dark sky.
"Where is Lord Mu?"
"Lord Mu, we've been detained."
"Ah?"
……
In the imperial prison.
"Brothers, come, come and play cards.”In the imperial prison, Mu Yu greeted a few jailers as if he had returned home. He asked the jailers to bring over the thin wooden cards that he had made. Previously, he had been bored out of his mind in the imperial prison. Mu Yu thought that he might come back again, so he quickly asked a few craftsmen to make a few cards for him. He had already become familiar with the jailers.
One by one, they took out a few pieces of silver to gamble. Mu Yu was now a wealthy man, so it was not a problem for him to gamble with a few taels of silver.
The other jailers were not here at the moment, so they were playing Fight the Landlord.
Farmer Mu Yu,[Yes, Third Son.]
"I can't afford it."
"Get lost." Mu Yu wanted to kick the farmer teammate beside him." You're taking two cards and I'm sending you off with a bang. Are you not worthy?"
"Yes, Si 'er."
Farmer Mu Yu: I can't afford it.
Farmer Jailer: I can't afford it.
The landlord jailer typed out three, four, five, six, seven," Straight.
Farmer Mu Yu: I can't afford it.
Farmer Jailer: I can't afford it.
Landlord Jailer: J, haha, I'm done. Bring me the silver.
Mu Yu looked at his cards with a two, seven, eight, nine, ten, an ace, and a king. He was silent for a moment and did not say anything. He obediently took out his silver, as if he did not notice the strange look in the eyes of the jailer and farmer beside him after seeing his cards.
A new round was about to begin.
The two jailers began to look at him with an expression that was called taboo.
That expression meant that he was a landlord, not a landlord, so he shouldn't be in the same group as him.
Fortunately, just as the match was about to begin, the jailers who had gone out to do some work returned.
"I'm not playing Fight the Landlord anymore." The two jailers who were afraid of Mu Yu said hurriedly.
The jailers sat down.
"Lord Yu, here, take it." One of them widened his eyes and began to grind his teeth, preparing to play Texas hold 'em. He held half a silver coin in his hand and casually took out a steaming bun and handed it to Mu Yu.
" This..." A new jailer's face was pale as he said,""His Majesty said that he won't let Scholar Mu eat. He will starve Scholar Mu for three days.”
"Are you stupid?" The old jailer said angrily," Who gave Scholar Mu anything to eat? His Majesty said that you are not allowed to eat. This is a steamed bun, not something to eat, much less rice. You have to be more active. Otherwise, if you play cards here, you will die if word gets out."”
The old jailer was half threatening and half warning.
The imperial prison was just a small piece of land for these jailers. As long as the higher-ups did not care, it would be useless no matter who came.
"That's right. This is a steamed bun, not something to eat.”The new jailer thought for a moment and reacted."Cards, cards."
Finally, the jailer added,""My mother's roast chicken is not bad, I'll bring it back for you.”
The old jailer smiled. Smart and promising.
A bunch of people were playing cards together.
Mu Yu smiled.
Bad, right?
Was he bold?
He acquiesced. Otherwise, how would these jailers dare to be so bold?
As he ate, he wondered why his luck was so bad. They had played a few rounds of Fight the Landlord just now, and they had lost? Could it be that today was not a good day to gamble?
Why don't we stop playing Texas? What if Pants lost?
After a while, Zuo Qingshang came to visit Mu Yu. Mu Yu came out and went to his own private cell. It was a very clean cell. He talked to Shang 'er for a while. Not long after, their relationship gradually warmed up. The atmosphere was not right. Shang' er quickly pulled her hand out of Mu Yu's hand and said with a slightly red face,"Sir, aren't you curious about something else?”
"What is it?" Mu Yu really wanted to hug the peerless beauty in front of him in his arms and slowly say whatever he had to say.
"His Majesty locked you up, but aren't you curious about the Yu Family now?”
"What's there to be curious about?" Mu Yu smiled." It's fine if the dog Emperor doesn't lock me up. Locking me up proves that she's not satisfied. If she's not satisfied, it means that she hasn't vented her anger on the Yu Family. Then, the Yu Family should be saved."”
Mu Yu looked at Zuo Qingshang and said,""Shang 'er, am I right?”
Zuo Qingshang looked at the latter's young and charming face. When she saw that Mu Yu was also looking at her, she lowered her head shyly."Daren is extremely intelligent and rare in the world.”
Mu Yu's heart skipped a beat. He had the urge to hug her, but he suppressed it in the end. It was better to restrain himself in the imperial prison."The empress might have smashed something and made a mess of the palace. She might have even accidentally hurt her hand. If only her hand had been hurt.”
If the empress heard Mu Yu's outrageous words, she might smash a pile of things in anger and kill someone…
After chatting for a while, the two of them quieted down.
It was only quiet for a short while. Zuo Qingshang felt that if it continued to be quiet like this, she was afraid that something would happen. She was at a loss. In the end, she panicked and said,"Milord, Miss Yu is also here. She's outside. She's…very strange.”
His voice was filled with panic.
After she finished speaking, she regretted it. If she continued to be quiet, would Daren do something overboard? Would he do something to bully her? Did he want the adults to do it or not? If it continued to be quiet and the adults hugged him, what would he do?
The more she thought about it, the redder her face became.
"What do you mean by 'very strange'?" Mu Yu's attention was indeed distracted.
Mu Yu quickly understood what she meant.
Yu Yan 'er actually wanted to accompany him to jail.
"Miss Yu, you should go back to where you came from.”After Mu Yu was annoyed by the group of scholars and nobles who were protecting Yu Yan 'er, he thought to himself that there was no lack of people who liked beautiful women. It was only because his Shang' er's strength was so outstanding that ordinary people did not dare to approach her, making it seem as if no one was pursuing her.
"Lord Mu, you've already begged for mercy, how did you still get caught?”Yu Yan 'er said softly. Her complexion was much better. She was lucky that she did not catch a serious cold. Otherwise, with the young miss's weak body, it would be a different matter if she could survive.
"The fatuous ruler has been angered by me." Mu Yu didn't mind. He was thinking that if such a weak girl was married by a man in the future, would she be able to bear it?
"Oh." Yu Yan 'er didn't know what to say and didn't dare to continue the topic. She said,""Yan 'er wants to accompany you."
"Miss Yan 'er, do you have feelings for me?”Of course, Mu Yu refused. Go to jail together?
" I, I don't have it now…" Yu Yan 'er was extremely shy. How could she say these words so straightforwardly?？How could he do this? She was not married yet, how could he tell her this? Her face turned red, and it took her a while to calm down. Yu Yan 'er continued,"Yan 'er has already promised Milord that she will be a member of the great family. In the future, Yan' er will do whatever Milord does.”
What she meant was that even though she did not have any feelings for the lord, she wanted to repay him. In the future, she would marry a chicken and follow the chicken, marry a dog and follow the dog, marry an official and follow the official. If Mu Yu was to be sentenced to death, she would follow him. If Mu Yu was to go to jail, she would also sit with him.
Mu Yu understood and was slightly touched. However, he glanced at the group of nobles and scholars who had complicated gazes not far away and said coldly,""Miss Yan 'er, since you have no feelings for me, I have no interest in being Ma Wencai. Miss Yan' er, you should go back. If you really miss me, you should take care of your body.”
Yu Yan 'er stiffened and then said,"Your Excellency, actually, it seems to be a little."”She didn't know who Marvin was, but she understood what happened next.
"Miss Yan 'er." Mu Yu stared at the latter and smiled." It's too late. I don't believe you."”。
" Sir…" Yu Yan 'er was stunned.
"Shang 'er, send Miss Yu back.”
"Miss Yan 'er, you should go back.”Zuo Qingshang said. She didn't want to be too far away from Mu Yu. Even Zheng Xiong was guarding outside the Heaven Prison, and his aura spread out in all directions.
"Milord, what do you want Yan 'Er to stay?”The former asked.
"If you are willing, I might have a chance to agree.”Mu Yu smiled.
Yu Yan 'er was stunned." But, my lord, you don't believe me even if I say it."”
"Yeah, that's why it's impossible." Mu Yu smiled." Go back quickly. I appreciate your kindness. I'll still say the same thing. Take good care of your body. Consider it a repayment to me."”
"Sir, Yan 'er really wants to marry you.”
"I don't believe you."
Yu Yan 'er left.
When she came, she did not bring her heart along.
When she left, she seemed to have lost her heart.
After Yu Yan 'er left.
Zuo Qingshang came to the side of the cell,"Sir, who is Marvin? Why don't you want to be Ma Wencai?"
" Oh, that's a long story…Once upon a time, there was a man named Liang Shanbo, another man named Zhu Yingtai, another man named Ma Wencai, and another man, Ma Wencai's father…" In the cell, one was in the cell while the other was outside. It was day and night.
The bright moonlight shone down from the skylight and sprinkled into the cell, shining on the two of them. The ground was pale white, and the bars were also pale white.
He leaned against one side of the wall while she leaned against the other. There was a cage between them.
" Ma Wencai was a pitiful person, but in the end, he heartlessly separated the two of them, but he didn't get what he wanted. In the end, the two of them turned into butterflies and flew together. In life, they couldn't be together, but after death, they finally became…" The voice was like a dream.
He was talking, and she was listening.
In the distance, Zi-er was watching.
In the end, she told the Emperor about this matter and even briefly told him the story.
After hearing this, the empress's tired face didn't show any reaction. She just sat in the bedroom quietly for a long time.
