The Aloof Prince Pampers His Wild First Rate Consort Chapter 58

Mu Yunjin again looked distracted, she is aware that Chu Li helped her greatly. Indescribably, her confidence lacked a little. Soon after, she picked up her chopsticks and helped Chu Li place a pork cutlet into his bowl. Chu Li shot a glance at the pork cutlet and raised his eyebrow before looking at Mu Yunjin.
"This prince does not eat pork cutlet."
"Then, change it."
Mu Yunjin smiled and placed a chicken meat in Chu Li's bowl.
"Eat this."
"Don't eat chicken."
Refused again.
Mu Yunjin bit her lip, then shot a glance at a carrot. Then with a bright face she reached out her hand to help Chu Li and placed a lump of carrots on his bowl.
Seeing the carrot, Chu Li's brows immediately wringed, his face became tense and his dislike showed in his face.
"Hai, Huang zi fei, His Highness' most dislike food is the carrot."
Ding Xian quietly exclaimed. But Mu Yunjin did not mind him, she laid down her chopsticks and looked at Chu Li.
"Carrot is rich in Vitamin A, If you eat it, it is good for the eyes, especially for your bird….."
(TL: Forgive my dirty mind but I really laughed out loud translating the word where she stopped… Mu Yunjin you… Author you… Hahaha.)
Mu Yunjin did not continue her words.
Chu Li's eyebrows tightly wrinkled, he looked at Mu Yunjin oddly. Although he did not understand her words of what vitamin is, but he can understand the idea. Then, for the first time ever, he picked up his chopsticks and bit a mouthful of carrots and slowly but gracefully chewed it.
Ding Xian and Shen Momo is flabbergasted. They looked at Mu Yunjin with admiration.
"It is unpalatable."
Chu Li threw out the carrots on his mouth and reached a verdict.
Ding Xian and Shen Momo looked at each other, their eyes exposed two words.
Fortunately (Xing Hao = fortunately ; so two words)
Fortunately, His Highness is still His Highness.
Mu Yunjin saw Chu Li throw out a mouthful of carrots, she can't help but be contemptuous. So, in front of Chu Li, she deliberately ate three mouthfuls of carrots.
"En, it's delicious."
……….
At the end of the banquet, on the way out of the palace.
Ding Xian carried a lantern, walking beside Chu Li, helping him illuminate the road under his feet. Mu Yunjin walked on the side, lazily looking at this scene. She rolled her eyes, can't help but feel bored in this return journey. When they reached near the corner of the palace, her footsteps halted and waved her hand.
"You should return to the Fu first."
Once the words were out, she started to go.
Chu Li stared at the direction Mu Yunjin went and saw her hazy figure run further.
Mu Yunjin quietly arrived at the corner and saw beside a tree, Chu Qingqiang's bashful face and in front of her is Mu Yunhan.
"I heard that you are called Yunhan?"
Chu Qingqiang looked at Mu Yunhan with a rarely seen enthusiasm.
Mu Yunhan politely nodded.
"I heard Fu Huang spoke about you. You are awesome, you went into battle and established many outstanding military service."
Chu Qingqiang continued talking with a smiling expression.
"Wu Gongzhu (Fifth Princess) overpraise, Major General Qin and Young Miss Qin's ability in military service are the ones that are outstanding. Yunhan is just a.s.sisting, nothing more."
Mu Yunhan modestly and plainly replied.
Hearing what was said, Chu Qingqiang shook her head.
"Don't be modest, according to what this princess knows you three each made a breakthrough to the city base. Yunhan, your really awesome."
Mu Yunhan looked a little awkward and appears to be unwilling to be with Chu Qingqiang. Soon after, he opened his mouth to say:
"The sky is already dark, Gongzhu should go back and rest early."
(TL: CQQ! Get a clue! go away!)
"En."
Chu Qingqiang pursed her lip, then she raised her eyes to look at Mu Yunhan, her eyes revealed a strong admiration for him.
"I heard that you still have no marriage engagement with other n.o.ble daughters?"
"……"
Mu Yunhan did not speak.
Chu Qingqiang knew that she might have startled Mu Yunhan. She lowered her head, quite embarra.s.sed, before continuing her words.
(TL: CQQ, you did not just startled him, you scared him! hahaha)
"This princess is also the same."
As soon as her words fell, she smiled at Mu Yunhan and turned around to leave.
Mu Yunhan looked at Chu Qingqiang's departing back, he sighed slightly and shook his head.
When he turned around, his line of sight caught a hiding eavesdropper, Mu Yunjin, her eyes filled with mirth. He can't help but feel the anger burst in his heart.
"Your nerve, how dare you eavesdrop on my conversation?"
Mu Yunjin can't help but smile and walked forward. Then she looked towards the direction Chu Qingqiang took. She pout playfully, and looked at Mu Yunhan.
"Yunhan, Your really awesome."
"Smelly girl, your seeking death!"
Mu Yunhan firmly slapped Mu Yunjin's head.
"Say, it seems that this Wu gonzhu is true to you. wouldn't it be likely that she wants to marry you, right?"
Mu Yunjin crossed her arms, and looked at Mu Yunhan.
Mu Yunhan pulled a long face and seems a little displeased.
"I won't marry her."
"Aiyo, if Huang shang really bestowed a marriage, you really can't do anything to resist an imperial decree and not marry."
Mu Yunjin sighed.
"Let us talk later."
Mu Yunhan is not willing to talk to Mu Yunjin about this.
"You should go home."
Mu Yunjin nodded.
……….
After leaving the palace, she originally thought that Liu huang zi's black wood carriage had already left. Unexpectedly, she saw the carriage is still parked at its original place, Ding Xian and Zi Xiang is standing outside the carriage.
"Huang zi fei, please go inside."
Shen momo said to Mu Yunjin. Mu Yunjin gave a sound of approval. When she is almost at the carriage, she cast a glance at Ding Xian.
"Help me go up."
Ding Xian stared blankly at Mu Yunjin, he seems to recall that Mu Yunjin can effortlessly hop into the carriage. He can't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, soon after, he helped Mu Yunjin into the carriage.
Upon entering the carriage, Mu Yunjin glanced at Chu Li sitting inside. She tactfully sat down in a corner and gathered her arm together.
"Your cold?"
Chu Li slightly raised his eyes to look at Mu Yunjin embracing herself with her arms.
Mu Yunjin laughed, embarra.s.sed.
"The night air is a little cold.….."
"Oh."
After his curt reply, his gaze moved away.
Upon return to the Huang zi Fu, Mu Yunjin exited the carriage, just as she is preparing to go back to Gla.s.s Spring Pavilion, Shen Momo pulled at Mu Yunjin's clothes.
"Help His Highness hold the lamp."
As soon as she finished her words, Ding Xian's hand-prepared lantern is stuffed into Mu Yunjin's hands. Mu Yunjin looked aggrieved, as she gazed at the lantern in her hand. Afterwards, with small steps, she followed Chu Li and walked beside him towards the Gla.s.s Spring Pavilion.
All through out the journey, Mu Yunjin saw that Chu Li really can't see the road, so she intentionally walked ahead to illuminate the ground a bit, her mind filled with complaints.
"What about the jade pendant?"
Mu Yunjin asked.
"Didn't bring."
Chu Li replied.
Mu Yunjin curled her lips and faced Chu Li.
"Your Bird blindness, is it really serious that you cannot see at night?"
"En."
Chu Li mildly replied.
"Then, you should really eat a lot of pig liver and carrots!"
Chu Li narrowed his eyes upon hearing it and swept his eyes towards Mu Yunjin.
"Why did I not notice before that you are noisy?"
Noisy….
(TL: Oh my gosh Chu Li, tell me you didn't call the fair lady noisy! Yup he did.. *facepalm*Oh the romance!)
Mu Yunjin got angry. Immediately, she stopped walking and shoved the lantern on Chu Li's hand, clearly annoyed.
"Go and walk by yourself."
As soon as she finished her words and avoid whatever Chu Li might do to her, she ran away towards the Gla.s.s Spring Pavilion.
After returning to her room, Mu Yunjin deliberately did not light the candles and she leaned by her doors and observed the situation outside. She saw Chu Li, carrying the lantern as he walked slowly to Gla.s.s Spring Pavilion. Soon after, he entered the room diagonally opposite to her room. Soon, that room turned bright.
……….
The next day, Mu Yunjin is awakened by the sound of several firecrackers. When she woke up, Mu Yunjin is drowsy, as the incessant crackle and rattle is accompanied by a smell of smoke. Mu Yunjin is agitated, and got up from bed and walked to the door. As soon as she opened the door, Mu Yunjin saw a thick smoke surge and a string of firecracker in the ground.
A moment later, the sound of the firecrackers stopped.
Through the thick smoke, Mu Yunjin saw Chu Li and Ding Xian standing outside his room. Chu Li's face is clear and crisp, his eyes filled with jest.
"It is early in the morning, why are you setting firecrackers here?"
A displeased Mu Yunjin looked at Chu Li and Ding Xian. When Chu Li heard her, he raised an eyebrow and replied.
"Returning to you."
Returning?
Mu Yunjin is flabbergasted, she furrowed her eyebrows and looked at the firecrackers. Suddenly she recalled that she dropped Chu Li last night and returned back to her room.
Shoot, this man really held a grudge? To go as far as to set off firecrackers at first light to quarrel with her?
Seeing Mu Yunjin's evident frown at Chu Li, Ding Xian also helplessly sighed. His Highness is absolutely crazy. He even bet that Third Miss will get angry. Still, to think of such a childish trick, he couldn't connect this to the His Highness that he is following closely and guarding for many years.
After a while, morning meal is served.
Mu Yunjin have panda eyes, and sat in front of the table. She half-heartedly start eating, and from time to time, she yawned, looking tired.
Chu Li, in contrast is light-heartedly eating his congee. With Mu Yunjin's every yawn, his eyes will have a bit of cold and charming smile.
Shen Momo who was standing on the side waiting on them, looked at these two people's countenance and saw Huang zi fei is certainly not taking it easy, after all, Huang zi fei had just had their private time. She smiled and can't help but look at Chu Li.
"Your Highness, even though it has been a month since she became of age, still she is young. There is ample of time for that later."
(TL: Shen Momo, your hardwork had not paid off. Instead of snu snu, they had a weird fight but then again its a cute interaction not the usual indifference.)
"Pfff."
Mu Yunjin sprayed a mouthful of congee, then glanced at Shen Momo.
"Don't talk nonsense."
Shen Momo thought that Mu Yunjin is just being shy, so she smiled and nodded.
"Okay, this servant won't say anything but I believe that soon, the Fu will once again have a happy event."
Mu Yunjin's mouth twitched to see Shen Momo joke around. She can't help but glare at Chu Li.
Chu Li remained composed as he ate, seemingly not listening as he opened his mouth to talk.
"Extremely dirty, next time, you are not allowed to spray things."
Mu Yunjin once again glared at Chu Li.
After eating the morning meal, Mu Yunjin prepared to go back to Gla.s.s Spring Palace to catch up some sleep. But Shen Momo kept her to whisper in her ears.
"Huang zi fei, His Highness' birthday is coming."
"The Seventh day of next month is His Highness' birthday. This year, you and His Highness got married, you have to prepare your congratulatory gift."
Shen Momo smiled.
Mu Yunjin frowned a little. Congratulatory gift? If I had known earlier, that Jade pendant, I would have delayed giving it to Chu Li.…..
On the way to Gla.s.s Spring Pavilion, Mu Yunjin's mind is with Shen Momo's mention of congratulatory gift. Soon, she thought of the thirty two thousand gold bank notes Chu Li has given her. It would be best to look if she can buy something good.
Immediately, she turned around and told Zi Xiang.
"Zi Xiang, we are going out of the Fu."
Zi Xiang nodded.
"Miss, what did Shen Momo tell you?"
"Nothing much, Chu Li's birthday is soon, and she wants me to prepare a congratulatory gift. Do you have any good ideas?"
Mu Yunjin asked.
Zi Xiang shook her head.
"This servant's status is low, I don't know any good things. Liu Huang zi's gift, I don't dare to say."

Hi guys,
Sorry for the In-translation rants. I can't help it. I might continue inserting rants in between if I feel like commenting on a certain scene or event, I hope you won't resent me for it. Even certain word meanings, I might write it inside the translation because I am too lazy to edit it out and put a glossary section.
Anyweiz hope you enjoyed this chapter!
