Chapter 158 Shall I Coax Him?
With so many people following her, can she still play freely?
Mu Jinchuan was silent for a moment.

Slowly, he said, "That's all."

Chu Luoyi raised her eyes in surprise, a little unbelievable.

Agreed so quickly?
It's not like his temper.

Suddenly there was a warm hand around her waist, and the next moment her body lightened, Mu Jinchuan lifted her onto the horse's belly.

Then the horse sank, and Mu Jinchuan got on the horse.

He clamped the horse's belly severely with his legs, pulled the reins, and the horse neighed and flew away in the dust.

Chu Luoyi tilted her body, and fell firmly into Mu Jinchuan's arms, hitting his chest.

The man's cold breath wrapped her tightly.

Mu Jinchuan slowed down, wrapped Chu Luoyi in his arms with one hand, and pulled the cloak to cover her.

"Why did you come here?" Chu Luoyi asked suddenly.

Mu Jinchuan's hand holding the rein paused slightly, his dark eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "Passing by."

"Oh." Chu Luoyi nodded.

It turned out that she was passing by, thinking that he would not go to Xiao's mansion to pick her up.

Back at the palace, Mu Jinchuan dismounted first, and turned around to hug Chu Luoyi.

And Chu Luoyi waved to him, motioning him to stand aside.

Before Mu Jinchuan could react, she jumped down suddenly, and patted the dust on the hem of her clothes, "It's not difficult for me at such a height."

Mu Jinchuan: "..."

He underestimated his princess.

It's early spring, and the flowers and plants in the garden are sprouting. Looking from a distance, the greenery is reflected.

The maid squatted on the ground tending the flowers and plants, discussing from time to time.

Mu Jinchuan and Chu Luoyi walked through the garden, and the sound of discussions came to their ears intermittently.

"Do you know? I heard that the concubine was almost scalded by hot oil on the long street, but was rescued by Lord Chongguo."

"Is it Duke Chong who gave gifts to our palace last time?"

"There is only one Lord Chongguo in our capital. Lord Chongguo has always kept a low profile. Why is he so devoted to the princess?"

Hearing this, Mu Jinchuan's expression darkened instantly.

Chu Luoyi didn't feel a chill coming over her body, and she shivered.

"He's interested in you?" Mu Jinchuan's voice was low and cold, and those dark eyes wanted to see through her.

"Eh..." Chu Luoyi was speechless for a moment, her temples throbbing with pain.

"Duke Chongguo has always lived in seclusion, but you are destined to meet him every time." Mu Jinchuan's voice became deeper and deeper.

Chu Luoyi: "..."

What can she say, if it is a coincidence, she herself does not believe it.

But this is indeed a coincidence!
Mu Jinchuan glanced at her coldly, then waved his sleeves and left.

Bai Shu opened his mouth, about to say something, noticed the change in Mu Jinchuan's eyes, and immediately followed.

"Princess, the prince is angry." Liu Yue whispered.

"What does it have to do with me?" Chu Luoyi shrugged.

Mu Jinchuan is uncertain and gets angry at every turn, she has long been used to it.

Chu Luoyi took Liuyue back to Qingfengyuan directly.

Princess, do you want to go see the prince? "Liu Yue worried.

"No." Chu Luoyi glanced at her lightly, and ordered, "Go to the kitchen and prepare some meals for me, I'm hungry. By the way, boil some hot water, I want to take a bath."

"Yes." Liu Yue had no choice but to salute, then turned and left.

Chu Luoyi thumped her sore waist, and lay down lazily on the soft bed.

Peony came in with tea and poured a cup of tea.

"Princess, I heard Liuyue say, is the prince angry?" Mudan asked.

"En." Chu Luoyi nodded lightly, not caring.

Seeing how careless Chu Luoyi was, Mudan couldn't help laughing, and persuaded, "Princess, this servant thinks that the lord is very caring about you. When I heard that you were in trouble on the long street, I rushed over."

"Didn't he pass by?" Chu Luoyi blinked in surprise.

"Since you went to the Marquis Mansion, the prince has been dealing with government affairs in the study and has never been out of the house." Mudan explained again.

Chu Luoyi froze immediately.

He rushed there specially?
Didn't Mu Jinchuan say he was passing by?
At that time, Mu Jinchuan said that he was passing by, but she didn't think much about it. Now that she thinks about it, how could he pass by Xiao's mansion?

The moment she figured it out, Chu Luoyi felt a little guilty.

"Then... shall I coax him?" Chu Luoyi asked tentatively.

Mudan smiled, "If the princess can make some snacks, the prince will be happy."

"Snacks?" Chu Luoyi frowned slightly, if making dim sums, it might have to wait for a while.

But if it is made, it would be good for Mu Jinchuan as a supper.

While thinking about it, the maids came in carrying all kinds of jade, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings.

Bai Shu finally opened the door and came in, looked at Chu Luoyi and bowed his hands, "Princess."

"This is?" Chu Luoyi looked at those things suspiciously.

What did Mu Jinchuan send these things for?
"Reporting to Wangfei, this is sent by the subordinates sent by the prince." Bai Shu replied respectfully.

Chu Luoyi pursed her lips, feeling a little headache, "What is Mu Jinchuan going to do?"

"This..." Bai Shu hesitated to speak.

Mu Jinchuan's magnetic voice came from outside, "Give a gift to Duke Chongguo."

He walked in slowly, through the door curtain, his angular face was extremely handsome.

"Since Duke Chongguo saved you, we have to show the bearing of a prince's mansion, and you choose some gifts for him." Mu Jinchuan's eyes darkened.

"Oh." Chu Luoyi nodded and slowly stood up.

The servant girl hurried forward with the wooden box and let her choose.

Chu Luoyi's eyes lingered in the wooden box, looking at everything from left to right.

She was thinking, her beautiful eyes flickering slightly.

Seeing that Chu Luoyi was really choosing a gift for Duke Chong, Mu Jinchuan's face darkened immediately.

"This one." Chu Luoyi picked up a pair of jade bracelets, "Mr. Chongguo is as gentle as jade, low-key and peaceful, which matches this jade bracelet very well."

Hearing this, Mu Jinchuan's face was so gloomy that ink dripped out, as if a storm was coming.

Bai Shu felt his scalp tighten, and a biting chill ran down his spine.

Chu Luoyi didn't feel it at all, and played with the jade bracelet.

"Princess." Peony reminded in a low voice.

"Huh?" Chu Luoyi raised her eyes in surprise, and happened to meet Mu Jinchuan's dark eyes.

"The jade bracelet is not suitable." Mu Jinchuan's tone was as cool as water.

"Why?" Chu Luoyi picked up the jade bracelet and shined it under the sunlight, the jade quality was thorough and clean, "I think it's quite suitable."

"Mr. Chongguo keeps a low profile and lives in seclusion. The jade bracelet is warm and cool. Are you mocking him for his indifference?" Mu Jinchuan explained.

"That's not what I meant." Chu Luoyi's expression changed, and she put the jade bracelet back into the wooden box, "Then change it."

She raised her hand and picked up the calligraphy and painting in the box, "Then give this?"

"I heard that Lord Chongguo loves calligraphy and painting very much. He must like this picture of beautiful mountains and rivers."

Mu Jinchuan's eyes darkened, and a deepening gloom surfaced on his face, "Mr. Chongguo doesn't care about world affairs, and the picture of Splendid Mountains and Rivers is not suitable for him.

"This doesn't work either." Chu Luoyi put the calligraphy and painting in, frowning slightly.
