Clouds and Moon Shadow

Chapter 447 The Secret of the Pear Blossom Clan

Mu Yun Chu narrowed her eyes slightly, unable to resist scrutinizing the woman beside her.

At this moment, her face was covered by a silver mask, so her forehead and nose could not be seen, but her cherry blossom-like lips could be seen, pink and moist, opening and closing, uttering a clear, youthful voice.

He felt his heart was inexplicably filled with something called happiness, so full that his eyes and heart could no longer hold anything else.

He thought that he didn't ask for much in his life, the only thing he wanted was for A-Yue to stay by his side and for him to be able to rely on her for the rest of his life.

He wanted to take her to all the famous mountains and rivers, to travel across the vast oceans and rivers of the world. That simple yet happy life was what he pursued and longed for.

Actually, the third and fifth brothers don't need to waste their energy on him.

Since he left the palace and joined the army in Lizhou, he has never thought about vying for the supreme position.

But how could they believe that? Who would believe that a prince had no ambition to seize the throne?

Especially a prince who has considerable prestige and influence in the military?!

Without a doubt, he will be their first target to eliminate.

What good is being born into royalty and having a noble status?

It's not as comfortable as Ah Yue's way.

Thinking of this, a mocking smile appeared on Mu Yun Chu's face.

"You've seen it before, haven't you?" Gu Qingyue's voice came from the side, cheerful like a bird in the forest.

"What?" Mu Yunchu came to her senses.

"The Immortal of Forgetfulness," Gu Qingyue said with a smile.

Looking into Gu Qingyue's eyes, Mu Yun Chu thought for a moment and said, "It is a very rare flower cultivated by the Li Luo Clan."

It is said that it was left in that tribe by a mysterious woman many years ago, and she also taught them the method of planting.

After she left, no one ever saw her again, and this became a closely guarded secret of the Liluo tribe.

"I see," Gu Qingyue said thoughtfully.

She suddenly asked this question because she had just discovered that the Forget-Me-Not plants she had planted in the space had all come to life and had formed a small patch, which was breathtakingly beautiful!

"Why would a child be allowed to sell such a rare flower?" Gu Qingyue wondered. Shouldn't a tribe keep such a rare and mysterious flower hidden?

Mu Yun Chu smiled upon hearing this, "No matter how rare a flower is, it can't be eaten or drunk; it's only for admiring."

For the Liluo tribe, it's better to use it for making a living. This flower is rare, so it can naturally be sold for a higher price, earning them more money, which is more practical for them.

"It's your good fortune that you were able to buy such a rare flower, Yue."

“That’s true,” Gu Qingyue said smugly.

However, she suddenly remembered the night she used the Forget-Me-Not to attract the black butterflies, and found it quite interesting.

"By the way, that night I found a black butterfly at my door. I used the Forget-Me-Not Elixir to tease it, and it flew away immediately. The butterfly didn't seem to like its smell, but I thought it smelled really good."

Gu Qingyue swayed the reins, closed her eyes contentedly, and breathed in the fragrance of flowers in the wind. She felt that none of them could compare to the scent of her Forget-Me-Not.

She's now eager to go inside and explore the space.

But the situation does not allow it.

"Black Butterfly?" Upon hearing this, Mu Yun Chu was startled and frowned.

"Hmm, what's strange is that these butterflies only hover around my and Fourth Brother's doors, but not anyone else's." This was actually something that Gu Qingyue couldn't figure out. Why was that?

After muttering to herself, Gu Qingyue hopped on her horse and galloped forward.

"King Li, let's have a horse race!"

She shouted loudly at Mu Yun Chu.

With blue skies, white clouds, birdsong, fragrant flowers, and a gentle mountain breeze, it was truly a place that made one want to relax and enjoy themselves. Gu Qingyue couldn't resist and rushed out.

Seeing this scene, Mu Yun Chu's worries were immediately dispelled. What could be more important than seeing A Yue so happy and carefree?

So, Mu Yun Chu immediately spurred her horse and gave chase.

Under the vast and deep blue sky, two figures, one in blue and one in white, sped away like arrows released from a bow on the wide mountain road.

Gu Yuanming and Gu Yuanen looked at the departing figures, exchanged a glance, and smiled.

Seeing their little sister so happy and carefree made them happy too.

That night, in Yunguan County.

In the inn, Gu Qingyue finished washing up, sat down at the table, and took out a letter she had just received.

It was sent by the gyrfalcon dyed by the moon.

Since she sent Yue Ran with people to deal with those two forces, there had been no news. Fortunately, the letter arrived as soon as they arrived at the Yun Guan County post station that evening.

After Gu Qingyue finished reading the text in the "Read Ten Lines at a Glance" app, she read it again.

Am I seeing things?

The letter said they had dealt with two groups of pursuers.

One group was naturally sent by the Holy Maiden of Nanzhao, and the other group was sent by King Jing!

King Jing? Tracking me down and trying to capture me??

Gu Qingyue rubbed her chin, completely puzzled.

Since bestowing marriage upon Mu Yun Chu, Prince Jing has been trying to repair the relationship with the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, including having the sixth prince, Prince Sheng, take her half-sister, Gu Fei Wen, as his concubine.

What's going on here? Are they secretly kidnapping me to negotiate with my grandfather?

Did he get humiliated by his grandfather, so he's trying to use force?!

"Ah Yue," Gu Qingyue was pondering when Mu Yun Chu pushed open the door and walked in.

Gu Qingyue raised an eyebrow. This guy didn't care at all. She was a man now. Wasn't he afraid of people gossiping?

"Why are you here?" Gu Qingyue stood up.

"Look at this, can you help me think of why?" Gu Qingyue said, handing over the scroll of paper.

Mu Yun Chu opened it out of curiosity and looked at it. The more she looked, the darker her face became.

Upon seeing the above content, he immediately thought of a possibility.

From a man's perspective, he could see right through Prince Jing's intentions.

He was especially aware of Prince Jing's feelings for A Yue.

A-Yue couldn't see through it because she wouldn't think in that direction, but Mu Yun Chu naturally knew perfectly well.

The imperial decree for the marriage had been issued, and Prince Jing was naturally furious, but since he didn't react afterward, he thought the prince had let it go!

Haha, that’s why!

"Don't worry about A-Yue, I'll send someone to handle it," Mu Yun Chu said, pulling Gu Qing Yue into her arms.

Gu Qingyue looked up at Mu Yun Chu's face curiously, "You're going to deal with what? Do you think he's trying to arrest me to threaten my grandfather?"

Mu Yun Chu affectionately touched Gu Qing Yue's face, "It's possible, you don't need to worry about it."

As he spoke, he ruffled her hair again, "How have you been lately?"

He hadn't seen Gu Qingyue for a long time. Last night, he suddenly saw her in the mountains and almost couldn't resist going up to her and carrying her to a place where no one would bother them, to ask his A-Yue if she was alright.

But the timing wasn't right.

Thinking of this, he tightened his grip on the woman's waist, lowered his head, and brought his gaze close to Gu Qingyue's face, carefully tracing her features with his eyes, "Are you alright?"

Her voice was clear yet filled with a deep sense of longing.

Gu Qingyue looked up at his earnest and persistent gaze and couldn't help but laugh out loud, "You idiot, you say the same thing every time we meet."
