YôuJi Mu and Ling Siyue entered the great Imperial Palace of Imperial City of Binhai.
Ji Mu was amazed by the enormous figures carved and drawn on the long pillars and visible pavilions. She was dazed as she stood in the main path.
Whereas, Ling Siyue who stood behind her had no expression on her face. She was neither shocked or stunned to see the different architecture and view.
"Yóuren, this young girl is not allowed inside the Snow Pavilion, allow this girl to take a leave.", as she cupped her hands but did not bowed her head.
Ji Mu was startled by the voice was Ling Siyue. At instance, she had forget where she was standing. She coughed, "Al-Alright.But, be careful. Don't get lost."
'Your highness, please don't roam around in this unfamiliar place. You may get lost and be in a big trouble.', Ji Mu wanted to add but stoped herself as she could sense people staring at her.
She had to try her best to portrait a good image of The Second Princess Consort, shadowing the fact that the Princess used to belong to Yan royal family.
Ji Mu waved her hand and followed the path ahead of her, whereas Ling Siyue stared at her back. She went to the entrance of palace.
Ling Siyue sat a place quitely.She observed that a few people in black were observing her moves. She acted like a young innocent maid who had followed her mistress into a unknown nation without anything in return.
Worry and sadness appeared in her eyes as she looked at the direction where Ji Mu had left.
" Hey, Holy Lord , I should have gone with Youren. I am worrying like hell. She does not know anything about here.
What if she gets lost ? What if something bad happens to her ? What if she meets bad guys before reaching the destination ? What if she fell and hurt herself ?
Hai! If I was not young and of same age Youren, I have learnt what we say , hua! ha! But , me a useless fool . Ooof !", she cried in a loud tone.
' Ji Mu always cries like this. I have seen her so many times. Everytime she will speak same wirds and acts like this. Her feelings towards me is true and now these guards akso believe them and leave.
I have to go and see find why does we lack in the techniques and resources after having the Forbidden City. Clearly, I have seen this Binhai people, especially that general use advanced skills which were not even present in Forbidden City.', she thought.
Soon, as the breadth around her reduced, she took action. She asked around and used the excuse of toilet and dissappeared without letting those one or two guards suspect or find about her.
On the other hand, Ji Mu's heart pumped inside her chest. She was getting hell nervous.
First, she had to pay respect and offer tea to the Imperial family.
Second, the prince who was her master's husband is rumored to be perfect man and very smart , what if her found out about her.
She trembled. She had reached the Snow Pavilion where the tea offering ceremony were to be held.
She found a handsome man standing there and his gaze was at her.
" I never knew that this fox was afraid to meet the emperor.", he came close to her and spoke gently in her ear.
His hot breadth made her tremble. 'So dangerous. The only man, her highness had contact is her husband.', this thought made her eyes opened wide.
Ji Mu wanted to dig a hole and burry her inside it. But, for the sake of her lovely master, she controlled her urge to run away from this place.
"Why is prince acting very close to me ? Is this to show our lovely relationship to you father ?", she muttered.
" Why will I make my own father delusional ? Leave it. I am curious as to why you are wearing such thicm layer of perfume ?", he asked in his bending position. His eyes never left her body.
Ji Mu stepped behind and replied, " Its my habit. Doesn't your sister wear it ?", she moved her head towards the other side and tried to prevent his eyes.
" Hum, but last night, you did not wear anything. That lavander freshness on your body was so intoxicating.", he said. It was not loud but was easily heard by the people standing and listening to their talk for gossip.
Ji Mu was shocked. 'Does this prince, hold her highness and smell her ? NoNono...Ji Mu... be positive ..'
" Mhm, that was to enchant you and it is for being a proper woman.", she replied while smiling.
Jing Yang could not know that the woman in front of her was not the one with whom he had spent a night with.
The Forbidden City, not only had resources but special techniques and skill books which were all handed over to the royal family.
Out of which , some were with her highness. Ji Mu and Ling Siyue had learnt those text and techniques.
Both could copy others voices perfectly, even the martial expert could not differ them so how could this man do.
Her face was covered in an embroided cloth so it was not a problem that he would notice anything.
The main thing was the fragnance around Ling Siyue. 'Its true, that her highness does not wear any perfume as she natuarally smells of lavander but I don't. So, it is the reason why she told me to wear a heavy perfume. '
In the chamber of the bride few hours ago,
"XiaoJie , what will I have to do ? I think I will get be caught easily.", Ji Mu said while pacing around in the room.
"Mu'er, relax. Just follow my instructions and leave everything to me. ", Ling Siyue calmed Ji Mu.
" First, wear an embroided veil. It will cover your lips and nose.
Second, drink this. It will change your eye colour for about ten hours.
Third, leave long frills or long braids. It must cover your ears and a oart of your forhead.
Fourth, change your voice to mine.Butler and maids had heard me yesterday.
Fifth, wear a heavy perfume. Don't ask why.
Sixth, follow and learn the words I have written on this paper, nothing else will you speak.", Ling Siyue commanded her as she gave Ji Mu a small scroll from under her sleeve.
"Understood, Xiaojie.", as Ji Mu took the scroll from her.
Ji Mu opened her and started to remember it and make other preparations. In the end, they heard a footsteps of a person.
" A maid is coming, sit down there.", Ling Siyue said as she pointed towards a chair and she stood in front of her.
Ji Mu hesitated for a moment but soon followed her commands.
