Chapter 162 Dancing in the Rain
Chapter 162 Dancing in the Rain
"I heard that Queen Zhang of the previous dynasty lived a happy life. Even before her death, she performed a stunning dance in the pouring rain. Everyone who saw it will never forget it." Jiang Yunxi thought of the scene when she was the queen in her previous life.
At that time, she had to take too much into consideration: the dignity of the queen, the respect of the Jiang family, the balance of the harem...all of these things made her feel suffocated.
She just closed the palace gate and danced quietly in the rain, and then she felt very free.
"Since you made tea for me, I will dance for you. Although I'm not as good as Empress Zhang of the previous dynasty, I'm still worth watching." Jiang Yunxi put down the cup and rushed into the rain excitedly.
Before Mu Kang could react, Jiang Yunxi was already dancing in the rain.
It moves slowly like a light cloud, turns quickly like a whirlwind, like a butterfly, and like jasper.
Mu Kang was just about to send someone to get a flute to accompany Jiang Yunxi.
An umbrella suddenly appeared above Jiang Yunxi's head, and Zhao Changyu pulled her into his arms.
Jiang Yunxi looked up and saw the anger in Zhao Changyu's eyes. She felt it was boring and wanted to struggle to leave.
But Zhao Changyu didn't let go.
"Your Majesty, Mu Kang and I have something to discuss with you." Jiang Yunxi had to bring up official business.
Zhao Changyu loosened his hand, but held Jiang Yunxi's wrist tightly, pulling her out of the house, "We'll discuss this another day."
“Everyone happens to be here today…” Jiang Yunxi was pulled a few steps forward, still somewhat reluctant.
"I said let's do it another day." Zhao Changyu refused to give in.
Mu Kang ran to Jiang Yunxi holding an umbrella and held Jiang Yunxi's other hand, "Your Majesty, I have something to say to Yunxi."
Zhao Changyu's eyes were cold, without a trace of fluctuation, but he did not step away, nor did he let go.
Mu Kang smiled, "Yun Xi, I will consider what you said."
Jiang Yunxi blinked innocently, thinking: "What is it? Didn't you just agree to overturn the Yang family's case? What else did I ask you to do? Why don't I remember it?"
Seeing the exchange of glances between them, Zhao Changyu simply pulled Jiang Yunxi away.
Jiang Yunxi looked at Mu Kang and smiled faintly as he watched them leave. Then he turned to Zhao Changyu and said, "Your Majesty, please walk slower. I can't keep up."
Zhao Changyu slowed down his pace and tilted his umbrella towards Jiang Yunxi.
When Jiang Yunxi and Zhao Changyu completely disappeared from Mu Kang's sight, Mu Kang's smile suddenly disappeared.
He just did it on purpose.
He deliberately wanted to provoke Zhao Changyu.
Mu Kang folded his umbrella and placed it where Jiang Yunxi had just placed the teacup. Then, with his hands behind his back, he left through the back door in the rain, looking rather lonely.
Seeing that Jiang Yunxi was soaked, Zhao Changyu turned around and put aside his original intention of taking her back to the palace, and walked towards her courtyard in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
Zhen Zhen knew that Jiang Yunxi liked to get caught in the rain, so she had someone prepare hot water for her to wash up.
"Princess, the hot water is ready."
"Your Majesty, why don't you move to the front hall?" Jiang Yunxi saw that half of Zhao Changyu's clothes were wet, so he turned around and ordered, "Zhenzhen, go get a set of clean clothes for His Majesty to change into."
Zhao Changyu immediately picked up Jiang Yunxi.
Zhen Zhen wanted to say something but was pulled aside by Feng Gou who was following them.
"Your Majesty is really angry. To avoid accidental injury... we should stay away from him."
Of course Zhen Zhen refused. It was her responsibility to protect Jiang Yunxi, so she turned around and wanted to go over.
Feng Gou held her back and said, "With outsiders here, they can't talk. Whether they are quarreling or making a fuss, there must be a result, right?"
