Chapter 182 On the way to the temporary imperial residence
Mu Yang exploded immediately at the sight of Wen Yantong’s ‘just risen from bed’ appearance, he jumped up and down in the yard, scolding her for not disregarding him.
Wen Yantong felt her head about to explode, she had to immediately turn around to wash up, and came out to meet him after fully dressed. She shouted at him, "I've already packed it, so stop causing a fuss!"
Mu Yang looked her over, and seeing that she looked passable, his expression softened a little, "Where's your luggage? Hurry up and bring it onto the carriage, stop wasting any more time."
Wen Yantong was dumbfounded at the mention of luggage.
She didn't plan to go at all, how could she have such a thing ready?
Seeing her expression, Mu Yang immediately guessed, "You didn't pack at all, did you?"
Wen Yantong was afraid that he would explode again, so she had no choice but to say, "It's packed! It's packed! Mo Li is going to get my luggage."
She frantically winked at Mo Li. Fortunately, her luggage from her trip back to Chaoge hadn’t been fully sorted out, Mo Li hurriedly stuffed some clothes in and let someone carry them into the carriage.
Mu Yang kept staring at Wen Yantong sullenly the whole time, but Wen Yantong didn't dare to turn her head and look at him. Instead, she looked at the flowers and shrubbery that had been cut down in front of her room, and ordered her servants to pull them out. She planned to buy new ones to plant when she came back.
Every moment afterwards Mu Yang looked displeased at everything Wen Yantong did, he would occasionally humph and shake his head at her. Wen Yantong knew she was in the wrong, so she turned a blind eye to it.
After waiting for an hour, Chi Jingxi's carriage arrived at the gate of Wen Residence. After being informed by her servants, Wen Yantong followed Mu Yang out.
Mu Yang deliberately slowed down, walking behind Wen Yantong, constantly staring at her.
Wen Yantong had no choice but to quicken her pace and walk out of the gate, only to see Chi Jingxi pulling up the curtain and getting off the carriage. He was wearing a misty blue robe today, and his hair was held in place with a gold silk and vermilion wood crown. The lapel of his gown was mired in minor details, and faintly discernible in the sun.
He was dressed in formal clothes, and his demeanor looked very dignified, he had apparently dressed up for Mu Yang's birthday.
Chi Jingxi was in a good mood. When he looked up at Wen Yantong, his countenance was obviously full of smiles.
As if seeing a savior, Wen Yantong immediately clung to him. "Little Marquis, you are finally here! Otherwise I will be stared to death by Mu Yang."
Chi Jingxi asked in a low voice, "What happened?"
Wen Yantong whispered back, "I didn't expect him to come to me early in the morning. I was still sleeping in bed, and was caught red handed."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Yang walked out with a dark face. He immediately changed his expression to full of grievance after seeing Chi Jingxi. "Brother Xi, Wen Yantong is too much! He doesn't want to attend my birthday party at all, I still consider him a friend in vain!"
Wen Yantong quickly retorted loudly, "Who said that?! Who said that I didn't want to participate, I just got up late today!"
Mu Yang didn't want to argue with her anymore, so he rolled his eyes at her.
Although he was unaware of the reason as to why Wen Yantong refused to attend, Chi Jingxi did. Thus the latter said with a smile, "Yang’er best not to overthink, maybe she really overslept."
Wen Yantong nodded hurriedly.
Mu Yang widened his eyes; he looked at Chi Jingxi in disbelief, and murmured after a moment of silence, "Since when did Brother Xi start speaking up for Wen Yantong..."
Wen Yantong inwardly thought— there are still many things you don't know.
In order to prevent Mu Yang from making trouble again, Chi Jingxi said, "Let us depart soon, when I came just now, I saw the Fu Residence's carriage going out of the city."
When Mu Yang heard this, he hurried to get in the carriage, "Hurry up, let's catch up with Fu Zixian!"
The three of them rode Chi Jingxi's carriage together. After everyone was seated, Wen Yantong asked Mu Yang, "How many people did you invite to Xuanlin Palace?"
Mu Yang thought for a while and answered, "It's not that many, just the few people I usually get along with, besides the three of us, there’s only Fu Zixian and Brother Qianyuan."
After mulling over and over, there are only a limited number of people in total.
Wen Yantong had expected this, but what gave her a headache was that Mu Yang insisted on taking everyone to the hot spring. She hadn’t come up with a proper excuse to decline him when the time came.
Mu Yang thought for a while, then suddenly added, "My father also called some girls from Fengyue Building."
Wen Yantong was stumped for words, but soon realized that Fengyue Building was probably something similar to a high-end brothel. She hadn’t expected that Mu Yuan would call a group of girls for Mu Yang on his eighteenth birthday, was he trying to make a scene?!
She pretended to be puzzled, "Why did General Mu call for those girls?"
Mu Yang hesitated before explaining, "He said that my brain is unfit for anything, and I need to use my body to make up for it, so I should expand the family tree as soon as possible."
Wen Yantong couldn't help sighing. Mu Yuan's brain circuit was really not comparable to that of ordinary people. Perhaps Mu Yuan felt that to change Mu Yang from a boy into a real man, he had to experience the joy of intimacy.
Without countless mature and young wives, it made sense he would pass this idea on to his son.
Wen Yantong clicked her tongue. With such an old man, how could his son not be raised crooked?
Chi Jingxi listened on the sidelines, but didn't express anything. Wen Yantong secretly looked at him, and muttered in her heart– The beliefs of ancients are so out-dated, Chi Jingxi could also think this is normal, right?
Mu Yang paused for a while, and then said, "But my father said that they were all dancing girls who will liven things up."
Wen Yantong couldn't help but say, "Who knows what kind of thoughts they might have."
Mu Yang sensed there was an underlying meaning in her words, and scolded, "What are you planning? Let me tell you, don’t you dare have any thoughts about those girls. Do you not know how old you are?"
Wen Yantong laughed out of anger. "If I were looking for it, I wouldn't want any of those girls you brought!"
Chi Jingxi raised his eyes and looked at her inexplicably.
Wen Yantong immediately continued, "I am a scholar, and I only know of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone; I speak with auxiliary verbs, there is no place in my heart for those girls."
Mu Yang said disdainfully, "For someone who drools a meter long in class, you have the face to say that you only know of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone?"
Wen Yantong inwardly retorted – We’re tweedledum and tweedledee, what right do you have to criticize me? So she rolled up her sleeves and began to argue with him.
The journey to Xunyang Mountain took about half a day, and along the way, Mu Yang and Wen Yantong bickered nonstop. But Mu Yang lacked Wen Yantong's glib mouth, and would always be driven mad by her words and screamed wildly every time. He then would be taught another lesson by Chi Jingxi.
Although Wen Yantong and Mu Yang often exchanged a few insults, they were not as frequent as what was occurring these days; it was most probably because of the long vacation. However, the two of them would occasionally fall tired from all the cursing, so it was inevitable that they would have to take breaks. During that time, they could speak a few words normally.
Mu Yang urged the driver several times along the way, but Wen Yantong still had lingering fears from the incident when Mu Yang crashed into Fu Residence's carriage during the Snow Prayer Festival. So after he finished urging, Wen Yantong secretly stretched out her head to advise the chauffeur to drive more steadily.
After this repeated several times, Mu Yang discovered she was the problem. He was livid and decided by the driver and directed him himself.
The speed of the carriage was much faster, and when they were halfway to their destination, they caught up with Fu Zixian. Mu Yang shouted loudly for the other carriage to stop.
Since Fu Zixian and Chi Jingxi didn't know each other very well, he didn't dare to get into his carriage. After rejecting Mu Yang's invitation several times, Mu Yang had no choice but to get off the carriage and go to Fu Zixian's carriage. With this, Wen Yantong was finally able to enjoy some quiet. Moreover, with Mu Yang around, she had to think a long time before even considering speaking to Chi Jingxi.
