Chapter 115 Shangyuan Festival (1)
As soon as he heard about Fu Zixian’s name, Mu Yang immediately put aside his resentment. He said embarrassingly, "No, I don't dare go."
Wen Yantong walked out, "Why?"
"I'm afraid that my father will blame me if he finds out." Mu Yang replied, "My father and Prime Minister Fu... have some conflicts."
Wen Yantong thought: that’s true. She casted a glance at Mu Yang. "You are so anxious to find me, could it be..."
"I really wanted to call you out to have fun." Mu Yang quickly expressed his sincerity.
Wen Yantong didn't bother to refute him and got into Mu Yang's carriage. It was only when she went in that she realized that Chi Jingxi was also sitting inside.
Just like that time when she got on Mu Residence's carriage for the first time, Chi Jingxi’s eyes were closed, as if he had fallen asleep. He was dressed in a smoky blue brocade, with delicate patterns embroidered with gold silk around the neckline. There was a soft blanket covering his body.
After Wen Yantong got into the carriage, her breathing became lighter. She didn't dare to greet him, so she found a corner and sat down quietly.
She remembered that it was the same situation before, but after two long months, nothing had changed. With this thought, Wen Yantong couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.
After getting into the carriage, Mu Yang rubbed his hands. He squeezed to sit next to Wen Yantong, leaned against her shoulder, and said, "I’ll have to trouble you when we get to the Prime Minister's Mansion."
Wen Yantong was not in a good mood, so she replied, "So the reason you called me out was just to help you with that?"
Mu Yang froze for a moment, unprepared for her snarky remark, but then grinned and said, "What are you talking about? I’ve been trying to call you out since the first to the fifteen. Do you really think I just wanted you to help me go to the Prime Minister's Mansion? It’s because I know you didn’t go home on the new year, so I wanted to call you out and go and play."
Wen Yantong's heart warmed when she heard this. Mu Yang was very simple minded, and he was the least status-conscious person she knew. When she was not familiar with him before; she thought that he regarded his legitimate status highly. Thinking that Mu Yang was lofty about his position, she thought he would be the most difficult to get along with.
Unexpectedly, after getting along with each other, Mu Yang was the one who was easiest to talk to.
She couldn't help laughing. "Okay, I understand. I will try my best to call Fu Zixian out."
Mu Yang laughed happily when Wen Yantong continued, "Even if you want to keep hanging out with him, what if he wants to play with his sister?"
"What so fun about playing with girls?!" Mu Yang retorted, "There is an archery competition in Banxia Street. The prize is a Golden Pattern Snow Jade Arched Lotus Bow."
"What–what?" Wen Yantong was dumbfounded. Why does a bow have such a long name?
"Anyway, it's a treasure." Mu Yang didn't bother to explain to her. "I'll make a bet with Brother Qianyuan to see who can win that bow: Brother Xi or Zixian Fu."
Of course it’ll be Chi Jingxi! Wen Yantong was about to say it out loud, but luckily, she held back, and just let out an ‘oh’.
Mu Yang said, "I'm betting on Fu Zixian."
Of course you are, you don’t have to say anything, everyone already knows.
"What about you? Who do you think will win?" Mu Yang asked enthusiastically, "Why don't you join in the bet?"
Wen Yantong shook her head, "I have nothing to wager."
Mu Yang continued to push for an answer, "Then you don't have to participate in the bet, just say which one you think will win."
Wen Yantong could only relent at his persistence and vaguely replied, "I think both have a chance at winning..."
At this moment, Chi Jingxi suddenly said, "My archery is not as good as that boy of the Fu Residence's?"
Wen Yantong froze, lowered her head, and said nothing.
"Brother Xi, that’s not how one should speak. Although I admit that you are good at archery, it’s not all skill. Luck is also needed to win the prize." Mu Yang answered, "I think Fu Zixian is more likely to win."
"Are you saying I'm unlucky?" Chi Jingxi asked.
"People who are lucky would never get injured in the middle of the night." Mu Yang replied in a low voice.
Chi Jingxi was too angry to speak.
After an awkward moment of silence in the carriage, Mu Yang took the initiative to chat with Wen Yantong again. He seemed to be very happy as he continued to blabber everything she had missed from the fifteenth day to the first day. He even told Wen Yantong the little things he saw at the New Year's Banquet. Wen Yantong only replied with a smile, but her perfunctory attitude did not weaken Mu Yang's enthusiasm at all.
When they finally reached the Prime Minister's Mansion, Wen Yantong couldn't wait to get out of the carriage. She didn’t want to stay and listen to Mu Yang any longer.
Wen Yantong spoke to the guard at the side door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and someone went to inform Fu Zixian. Fu Zixian’s movements weren’t very restricted in the mansion, so when he heard that Wen Yantong called him to go out to play, he immediately packed up and went out.
When Wen Yantong saw Fu Zixian, she immediately greeted him, "Good Brother Fu, happy new year!"
Fu Zixian smiled slightly, revealing two small dimples. "You too, happy new year. I didn't expect you to come to find me at this time."
"Not only did I come, I also brought people along." Wen Yantong smiled and pointed at the carriage behind her.
Mu Yang also excitedly jumped off the carriage. He walked over quickly and exclaimed, "Fu Zixian! I haven't seen you for a long time!"
Fu Zixian also greeted him with a smile. "Young Master Mu is here too."
When the three of them got together, they always had to joke around for a bit. Sitting in the carriage, the corners of Chi Jingxi’s mouth sank more and more as he listened to the laughter and elated voices of the three people outside. If one were to look at his handsome face at the moment, they would be able to read two words from his expression: complete displeasure.
Chi Jingxi called for a servant.
Someone outside the car responded, "What's your order, Little Marquis?"
He said, "Start the carriage and go to Banxia Street now."
Fu Zixian was listening to Mu Yang with a smile, when he suddenly saw the carriage not far from them move; it was slowly being driven away. He couldn't help but interrupt Mu Yang, "Young Master Mu, your carriage... it seems to be departing without you."
