Chapter 243 Duke Yun

Xiao Muying followed the guard on the winding path, passing through a series of grand or small palaces, until she walked into a vast garden, and stopped in front of a simple brick and stone house .

The house was a square one, situated in the middle of the garden, and covered an acre or so.

There are windows on all sides of the house, and the windows are all wide open at this time, and there are bursts of fragrant flowers and crisp birdsong from inside.

There were two court ladies standing on the left and right in front of the door of the house. After Xiao Muying and the two came here, the guard said to one of the court ladies: "Sister Xiang'er, I brought her here. You can take her in. I haven't searched yet. For her body, sister Xiang'er will do it for her."

"Okay." The maid named Xiang'er nodded in response, and the guard stopped talking, turned and left.

The two palace maids looked at Xiao Muying with curiosity without any concealment. After a while, Xiang'er walked up to Xiao Muying and said, "I'm offended."

Xiao Muying opened her arms and said politely: "Sister, please."

Xiang'er carefully searched Xiao Muying's whole body, including the birdcage in her hand, took off the black cloth and looked carefully, and only after finding no sharp weapon, she said softly: "Miss Xiao, right? Come in, you follow me."

"Okay, thank you." Xiao Muying thanked her with a smile, and walked forward behind Xiang'er.

The door of the masonry house was open at this time, Xiang'er and Xiao Muying walked in one after the other, Xiang'er stopped at the door and bowed and bowed, respectfully said: "Your Majesty, Miss Xiao is here."

After Xiao Muying came in, she took a quick look, and saw that it was filled with all kinds of rare flowers and birds. Once she entered, it was like being in a forest.

Then she lowered her head and waited quietly.

Not long after, a quiet male voice was heard, saying: "Are you Xiao Muying, the only female disciple in Shenmou Valley?"

Xiao Muying looked up, and soon found a man in brocade clothes among the flowers and plants, she took two steps forward, bowed deeply to him and said: "Xiao Muying, I pay my respects to Lord Yun."

Duke Yun looks to be about five or sixty years old, and his appearance is already visibly aged.Maybe it's because he doesn't have much ambition to expand the territory, but his face doesn't show much majesty as a monarch should have. On the contrary, his expression is unusually kind, just like an ordinary old man.

Xiao Muying just had a quick glance at Duke Yun's appearance just now, and couldn't help muttering in her heart, no wonder no counselors came to Yun Kingdom to display their ambitions.

"You don't need to be too polite, get up." Duke Yun said softly.

Xiao Muying straightened up and said respectfully, "Yes, thank you, Lord Yun."

She got up and looked forward, only to see Duke Yun holding a bowl of clear water in his hand, carefully watering a pot of flowers in front of him.The branches, leaves and blooming petals of the flower were all stained with water droplets, which looked delicate and charming.

Xiao Muying looked at the pot of blooming flowers, and saw that the flowers stretched out to about the size of the mouth of a bowl, the petals were light yellow, and the stamens were crimson red, which didn't look like common flowers in the world.

Xiao Muying thought for a while, then said with a light smile: "Your Majesty, is this Fugui Orchid? I heard that Fugui Orchid blooms in spring, but yours can also bloom in this season. It's amazing."
