Chapter 13: Just unbelievable
An image of his cold face popped up into Mu Zi Lingâs mind. She shook her head vigorously and said, âWhy would I play for him? I will only play for you, Xie.â
Long Xiao Yu wasnât anyone to her. He was only her husband in name.
Their marriage wasn't even blessed! How far they could go wasn't even clear.
She wasn't a love sick fool anyways. There was no way that she would act like the girls in ancient times. No way was she going to waste all her time on trying to win a guyâs heart.
One small deed would feel amazing if the couple was really in love.
There wouldn't be any love in a relationship where schemes were used to woo a person. Such a fake relationship could not be called love.
Although she wasn't sure if she would ever experience such an unforgettable love, she knew that she would never share her husband with another woman.
âYoung Miss, that wouldnât do. Ifâ¦. if that's the case then I wonât listen to it either.â Xie said with a firm look, as if she had resolutely decided on something.
âHaha. Alright, letâs not talk about this anymore. Itâs getting late, let's go back.â Mu Zi Ling looked helplessly at Xie, who sat there stubbornly.
Everyone had already assumed that Mu Zi Ling was a useless idiot. If too many people found out that she had all of a sudden changed, it would cause too much suspicion.
It would be better if she kept a low-key profile and do things slowly step by step. It would not benefit her in any way if she revealed herself too early on. In addition, she had still not forgotten the reason why she was married to Long Xiao Yu.
However, Mu Zi Ling didnât realize that her performance had been heard by three other people. On the second floor, Long Xiao Yu had been encaptured by Mu Zi Lingâs performance
Since Long Xiao Yuâs psychological strength was so strong, no one and nothing had ever affected him mentally before. However, unexpectedly, he had actually been encaptured by Mu Zi Lingâs song.
A half filled pot of green tea evoked homesickness, while a thin sheet of muslin encased the mortal world.
As he watched he master and servant pair walked further and further away, his eyes revealed a strange emoti
on that even he didnât notice. Mu Zi Ling, who exactly are you?
Gui Ying and Gui Mei who were hiding in the shadows were also shocked by the zitherâs sounds.
Although they couldnât see the Princess herself, the moment earlier mustâve been beautiful. Wasnât the Princess an idiot?
How was it possible that she was capable of such beautiful and amazing music? This was too unbelievable. How was this an idiot? This was clearly a genius!
A white figure floated up onto the second floor. He wore a white robe and his face resembled a piece jade. His clear and gentle eyes added a few points of charms to his appearance while still managing to look natural. If someone was caught unaware, he could easily slip into their hearts. He really was a handsome man.
Long Xiao Yuâs head slowly cleared and he swept his gaze towards at the other man, lightly saying, âHow is it?â
A sliver of hesitation appeared on Le Tianâs handsome face, âXiao Yu, Ling Longâs blood has started to reject the heart protecting grass. Iâm afraid that the next time the Madamâs disease acts upâ¦â Le Tian trailed of.
Long Xiao Yu was very clear about this. His cold and arrogant eyes focused onto something in the distance. The deepest abyss of his eyes were covered in frost. A moment later, he coldly asked, âWhat medicine will we have to find this time?â
Le Tian shook his head and sighed, âDragon Palmâs Blood. I have heard that the dragon palmâs blood grows in the Sheng Hen Canyon. The landscape there is practically inaccessible and is very dangerous. It will not be easy to find.â
Long Xiao Yu stayed silent. His eyes were cold as if he was deep in thought.

After being married for 3 days, everyday she spent in the Kingâs Manor was more uneventful than the last. Ever since that one time she encountered Long Xiao Yu, she didnât bump into him anymore. She had no idea what he was doing. It was like he was a dragon whose hands could be seen while its tail was hidden.
(TL note: This saying is referring to someone who appears suddenly at one moment, but quickly disappears at the next moment. This basically means that the personâs where abouts were a mystery.)
Originally on the third day of the marriage, she was supposed to return home. However the Old
Madame has already returned to the Qing An Temple.
Currently, other than Mi Yi Xue and her mother at the manor, the manor was empty. Moreover, Mu Yi Xueâs body should still be covered in large bumps from last time. If she returned now, it would be catastrophic.
Deducting one less problem would be better than increasing the number of problems!
âXie, go and prepare two sets of male clothes.â
Mu Zi Ling thought about it for a second. She had remained here for so many days already, yet she still hadnât gone outside yet. She wanted to go and take a look to see if there were any suitable stalls. There was so many medical supplies in the stellar system that she could open a medical stall.
Although with the title of the the Qi Princess and her dowry, there wasnât anything that she lacked. However she needed to find something to do. Carrying around the tittle Qi Princess would attract attention to her wherever she went, so her only option was to disguise herself.
âYoung Miss, what do you need male clothing for?â Xie confusedly asked.
âWeâll be going to browse around outside. Seeing as it will draw a lot of attention if we go out, we can only leave while dressed as men.
âYes, this servant will go prepare immediately.â Xie was also very happy.
Ever since they were little, her Young Miss rarely went outside. Now, she could finally go out with the Young Miss.

The streets of ancient times were really lively.. There were tearooms, restaurants, pubs, and pawn shops on both sides of the streets. Many people were bustling around in the streets. This street was even more noisy and crowded than the streets she saw on T.V.
Mu Zi Lingâs attention was completely focused on trying to find a good stall. Suddenly her focus was interrupted by an unwanted person.
âThird Sister in law, Third Sister in law, wait for me!â Long Xiao Yu jumped and ran towards Mu Zi Ling.
Ever since he was locked away in the Yu Han Palace to reflect, he had experienced a full three days of mental torture. Once he left that place, he had learned to be obedient.
During that time, he also realized something: In this world other than Third Brother, Third Sister in law could not be offended!
