Chapter 8: A suspicious new house.
"Wha… what?" Long Xiao Ze was shocked to the point of being speechless.
His mood suddenly raised from being in hell to being in heaven. Was there anyone who could mess with someone like this? How was Third Sister-in-law better than him at messing with people?
"Yes, roasted pig would be good." Long Xiao Ze said along foolishly.
He had decided that in this lifetime, he would see all pigs as his enemy. They made him suffer such a big loss today. If he ever saw a pig again, he would kill and eat it.
He would also need to report to his Third Brother. What kind of woman had he married? She was even this beautiful.
Perhaps she would become a trouble in the future. She could even mess with people with so easily. He must tell Third Brother to be careful of her, so that he wouldn't be played by her.
"Sixth Prince, go and tell his highness the Qi King about your achievements. Tell him that you have already guided this Princess to the manor. This Princess has already prepared you a big gift. In a bit, there will be a lot of bees and butterflies to greet you." Mu Zi Ling's lips curved up slightly and laughed mysteriously.
The honey dew she rubbed onto his hand earlier was about to take effect. Letting him go to the Qi King's side would allow the bees greet and group around this King that she had not yet seen. Take a look at this lady's meeting gift.
Hmf! He married her, yet he didn't take her seriously.
After talking, Mu Zi Ling didn't care about Long Xiao Ze getting mussed up in the windy weather. She instructed the servants who were standing off to the side, then walked through the doors by herself.
Xie looked at her Young Miss with a face full of worship. Young Miss was really amazing. She was even able to play with the Sixth Prince until he spun in circles, and even resentfully lead his pig away.
In a high building not far away, Long Xiao Yu observed Mu Zi Ling's every move since she entered the manor. Long Xiao Yu's martial arts were a profound mystery.
Mu Zi Ling and Long Xiao Ze's every word was heard clearly by him. However, the air grew colder as time passed by.
Even the two shadow guards secretly hiding couldn't help but tremble.
Long Xiao Yu's deep eyes narrowed slightly and showed a trace of interest. His thin lips opened and said each word slowly, "Mu, Zi, Ling."
Gui Ying and Gui Mei, who were hiding in the dark, saw that Long Xiao Yu kept staring at Qi King Manor. They thought that His Highness was watching a play from the sidelines, but didn't think that he was staring at the new Princess. They both stared blankly at the scene.
When had the cold and expressionless Qi King ever looked at a woman? Not only had he watched her for half a day already, but he was also staring at her the whole entire time! They stared at the sky, wondering if red rain was going to fall.*

Right when the doors to the room were opened...
"Sss" Mu Zi Ling sucked in a breath of cold air
It really was similar to its name, Yu Han Palace. How was this a new room? A chill came out of her body. There was a trace of a dominating breath in the air. Just by a glance one could tell that the owner of this place must not be offended.
Other than the pair of long red candles and a big red sandalwood marriage bed in the room, there wasn't any festivity.
The closer she walked, the colder and denser the air became. The candle swayed, making everything seem mysterious and dark.
Mu Zi Ling was already tired after this whole day, and she didn't want to think about anything else. She took off the phoenix crown on top of her head. Then she started to take off the wedding dress layer by layer.
She careless threw the clothes on the ground. She was now left with a thin layer of under clothes. She walked towards the bed's side and was ready to lie down when she saw a door towards the back of the bed.
It felt like the room's coldness came from that direction.
Mu Zi Ling, out of curiosity went over there and pushed open the door. She discovered that the room in there was twice as big as the one she was in previously.
Inside, it was very luxurious and had noble furnishment. There was also a hot water spring pool. It was not known where the water came from. How was it that it could still preserve its temperature such a cold room?
There was also a very large bed. Long Xiao Yu sure knew how to live a luxurious life. Mu Zi Ling looked at everything around her in awe and admiration. She noticed that thin strands of white smoke seeped out from under the bed sheets on the bed.
Mu Zi Ling realized that this coldness felt very familiar. She then subconsciously walked over to the bed and touched it with her small hands.
Cold! Really cold!
She lifted the bed sheets. It was the Ice Jade bed! Wasn't this the Ice Jade bed that brought her to this world?
She had looked for it in Mu Manor for a while, but wasn't able to find it. So it had been here this whole time.
It was because of this bed that she was sent to this crazy world. Since she found the bed again, doesn't this mean that she could go back?
Mu Zi Ling's heart filled with excitement. She thought back to the scene of when she arrived here. Thinking that she could now go back, she started to feel nervous.
As she thought about it, she also turned and flipped around in the bed, changing positions.
This isn't right, this isn't right either!
She took off the bed sheet that was covering the bed, revealing the Ice Jade that released puffs of white smoke into the air. Mu Zi Ling didn't waste anymore time and laid onto the bed again. She then fell asleep not long after that.
In her dream…
"Girl, you are not originally from this world. You are only here because of destiny. Everything will rely on fate from now on." Mu Zi Ling saw a white haired old lady waving at her, but couldn't see the old lady's face for some reason.
"Grandma, who are you? Why am I not in that world anymore?" However, the old lady's face became blurry and she was instead replied with a dead silence.
Mu Zi Ling's heart felt heavy. Her only hope had been shattered. Did she really have to spend the rest of her life here? Was there really no way to go back?
She laid on the bed with tears flowing down the corners of her eyes continuously. The tears immediately turned to ice when it made contact with the Ice Jade bed.

Long Xiao Ze still didn't understand what Mu Zi Ling meant when she said a lot of bees and butterflies would be greeting him.
He narcissistically touched his own face. Maybe she meant that he was too handsome, so he would attract butterflies and bees? The more he thought of it, the happier he became.
This woman sure had good vision. Although he was not as handsome and revered as his Third Brother, he could still be counted as handsome and good looking.
He decided to go look for his Third Brother and brag about his magnificence.
Suddenly a "buzz buzz" sound could be heard behind him. He turned around to see what it was….
*same saying as "when the sun comes up from the west"
Chapter 9: Meeting
"The heck! Bees?! Ahhhh! Third Brother save me!" Long Xiao Yu was frightened by the sudden appearance of the bees. He let out a miserable scream and ran.
At this moment, he was really regretting not listening to his Third Brother to practice his martial arts. With his jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none martial arts right now, he couldn't even dodge the bees and could only run.
The bees behind him kept increasing in number. They were chasing him and seemed as though they wouldn't stop unless they were killed.
Long Xiao Yu finally understood that Mu Zi Ling must have rubbed something on him to attract the bees.
However, when did Mu Zi Ling do this? How come he didn't notice anything?
This was what she meant by attracting butterflies and bees. There are no butterflies, but there was a large group of bees. Long Xiao Ze was about to collapse, and he wanted to cry but had no tears.
Rumors said that she was dumb and stupid. How were those rumors true?! She was so eloquent and sinister!?!
In the end, Long Xiao Ze finally brought the crowd of bees to Long Xiao Yu's side.
When Long Xiao Yu saw the black cloud chasing after Long Xiao Ze, his cold eyes wrinkled. He pulled out his sword. A sword slid through the air and the bees were all annihilated and fell to the ground.
At this moment Long Xiao Ze was panting. He was stung so many times by those bees that he was covered with bumps. Even when he was talking, he spoke with a lisp from all those stings. It was hilarious.
"Third… Third… Third brother, Third Si.. Sister in la...law… She… she.. Poi.. poisoned.. m… me…" Gui Ying and Gui Mei who were hiding in the shadows couldn't help but laugh, and almost revealed themselves.
Long Xiao Yu coldly glanced at him. Without caring much about him, Long Xiao Yu made a hand gesture. Gui Ying then came out from the shadows. "Take him to Yu Palace for three days."
"Yes." said Gui Ying as he walked toward Long Xiao Ze.
Long Xiao Ze suddenly bounced up, "Wha.. what?? I.. I… don… don't.. want t… to go."
In the past whenever he did something wrong, his third brother would take him to Yu Palace. That ruthless place was not physical torture but mental torture.
It wasn't physically painful, but rather pain for the heart! In the past he could at the most stay there for one day, before he couldn't stand it any longer. But this time he have to stay for three days!
Why was it always him that was getting hurt?! What did he do wrong? Didn't he only bring over a group of bees?!
However, Long Xiao Yu didn't even care about him. He was looking out in the distance. Long Xiao Ze also looked at the direction that Long Xiao Yu was looking at. That direction was towards Qi King's Manor, specifically Yu Han Palace.
He instantly understood, and his heart felt more sorrowful. Third Brother really knew what happened today. What can he do now? He really didn't mean to do it on purpose… Who knew that Mu Zi Ling would be so ferocious.
His tone was weak as he tried to explain, "Third… Third brother, Lis… Listen to.. m… my explanation. Its no.. not.. what you ar...are.. thinking."
Long Xiao Yu didn't even get to finish speaking before he was dragged off ruthlessly by Gui Ying. He had never been played so badly by a woman before. He had decided to hug her thigh after this
(TL note: The phrase "hugging a thigh" means to rely on or stick to someone.)
If he couldn't beat her, then he would just stick to her like a dog! Third Sister in law was better at playing people than he was.
And that pig… It better had become a roasted pig already. If not, he would let it see how he would handle it when he comes back.
What Long Xiao Ze did not know was that in the near future, because of what happened today and that already roasted pig, how long he will have to stay in Yu Palace, and how much heart wrecking torture he would go through.
Long Xiao Yu looked off into the distance. His eyes were as deep as the ocean. No one could guess what he was thinking about.
_
At night, Long Xiao Yu went back to his bedroom. His eyes were full of disgust when he saw the clothes littered on the floor upon opening the door. He did not see Mu Zi Ling anywhere.
He saw that the doors to the inner room were opened. His eyes turned cold and revealed a very frightening aura. He walked towards the inner room with a gloomy face.
First it was clothes all over the floor, now it was bed sheets all over the floor.
Long Xiao Yu's cold eyes were flashing with an uncontrollable flame of anger. Then he saw Mu Zi ling sleeping on the Ice Jade bed with only under garments on.
He furrowed his brows and waved his hands. A gust of wind picked the blankets up from off the ground. Then he tightly wrapped Mu Zi Ling with the bed sheets
This woman even dared to sleep on the Ice Jade bed. However, she did not know martial arts, and she couldn't feel the internal force. Normal people couldn't even bear to stand close to the bed, but she could sleep on it.
Since she first entered the Manor, she had already changed the ways people thought of her and proven the rumors wrong. Who exactly was she?
Long Xiao Yu's eyes flashed with a killing intent. He pulled out the soft sword by his hips and walked towards her.
Right when he was about to strike Mu Zi Ling, he saw her eyes flowing with tears murmuring..
"Why can't I go back? Why am I a person from that world? Ice Jade bed, it was you that brought me to this place. Quickly bring me back.. Old Ma'am…"
Although she was speaking very quietly, Long Xiao Yu still heard it.
What was this woman talking about? What world? Want to go back? Mu Zi Ling, who are you? His eyes flashed strangely and the killing intent in his eyes unconsciously disappeared. He looked at Mu Zi Ling carefully.
Moments later, Long Xiao Yu put away his soft sword. Then he picked up Mu Zi Ling with the sheets and walked out the door without any expression.
Such large movements woke up the sleeping Mu Zi Ling. Why was she floating in mid air? Right when she wanted to move and struggle, she noticed that her hands and feet were bounded and can't move.
Was she being kidnapped? Who has the guts to kidnap someone in Qi King's Manor?! She was filled with anger and was about to look at the face of that person. She has not gotten a chance to look, and was heartlessly thrown on a bed by her "kidnapper".
"Ah!" Mu Zi Ling scream and burst out of anger. She angrily looked towards the culprit that threw her on the bed, "Do you understand that…."
Before she can finish, she was stunned.
She sucked in a cold breath. My god… What kind of face was this...
It was as beautiful as carved ice jade. His eyes were as deep as ice. This person had a kingly aura of a person who could take over the world. He was extremely breathtaking and soul sucking.
It was not even exaggerating to say that he could make any woman in this world fall in love with him. Just looking at him made a person feel cold.
"Are you done staring?" Long Xiao Yu's cold voice carried a blatant tone of disgust.
Then he took out a black handkerchief, and carefully wiped every finger as if he touched something really disgusting.
