Chapter 308 Extra Story—Be Like a Quiet Prince in the Country of Mu Xia
The crisp voice of Yun Muxi arose behind Duanmu Gongyu when he was shocked not to find the girl. “Hey! You came back so soon.”

Hearing this voice, Duanmu Gongyu was relieved. He was really anxious when he didn’t see her on the bed. He was really afraid that everything would disappear like a dream. When he woke up, the dream would also disappear.

Turning around, he saw Yun Muxi standing by the window and holding the book that he read half of last night. The sunshine scattered on her body from the window, as is forming a layer of golden light on her body, warm and stunning. She was gorgeous, which stunned Duanmu Gongyu. After a while, he found that she was standing on the ground with bare feet.

Duanmu Gongyu slightly frowned. “Why aren’t you wearing shoes? You will catch a cold if you just stand on the ground like this!”

“Oh, I just wanted to look around your room,” Yun Muxi said casually. She always ran in her own home with bare feet and had gotten used to this. Besides, she had not been wearing shoes when she time-traveled here, so she could only be barefoot.

During the talk, the two beautiful maids behind Duanmu Gongyu had stepped by Yun Muxi’s side. The two were carefully selected and trained, so they knew to observe their master’s behaviors. From observation, they easily found that the duke paid a lot of attention to this girl who dressed strangely, so they had to serve her well.

Ruixue said first, “Maiden, how can you not take care of your body? Come on, put on the shoes and the clothes that were prepared by our duke. Allow me to serve you to dress up.”

Ruixue’s voice was very sweet, which made people feel happy. As she spoke, she was also doing her work.

Yun Muxi put on the sheepskin booties that Ruixue had placed by her feet and said anxiously, “Hey, thank you! I can do it by myself.”

Yun Muxi had never been served by others, so she felt weird and very uncomfortable.

She took the clothes from Ruixue over to the bed and turned to Duanmu Gongyu. “Em… Could you please go out for a moment? I need to change clothes!”

Yun Muxi spoke cautiously, while Duanmu Gongyu suddenly realized it was not suitable for him to stay here. He clenched his right fist and pretended to cough to cover his embarrassment. “Oh, I can go out and wait for you to have breakfast in the dining hall. After you get everything done, ask Ruixue to take you there.”

After Duanmu Gongyu went out and the door closed, Yun Muxi started to change into the prepared clothes, but felt embarrassed at once.

“How to put these clothes on? It seems to be really complicated!”

Yun Muxi turned around and said embarrassedly, “You’re Ruixue, right? Excuse me, could you please tell me how to put on this dress?”

Ruixue smiled sweetly and stepped forward to say, “Maiden, let me serve you to change the dress.”

Yun Muxi felt uncomfortable, but had to allow Ruixue to help her to put on the dress.

Ruixue’s eyes flashed with a bright light after she helped Yun Muxi put on the dress. She praised her, “Oh, this dress suits you well, Maiden. Originally, there was no female dress in this palace, so we didn’t know whether the new dress we bought just now would suit you or not. I had not expected that you would look so good even in such a normal dress.”

Chuxia walked in with a basin in her arms, praising her with a smile, “Yes, Maiden. Everything on you will be beautiful because you’re really a beauty! Maiden, I am Chuxia. Please, allow me to serve you to clean you up.”

“Oh, thank you! I can wash my face on my own.” Then, she held a palmful of water to wash her face and took a towel from Ruixue to wipe dry the water on her face. Later, Ruixue handed her a cup of water for her to clean her mouth.

There was no toothbrush or toothpaste, only mouthwash. Yun Muxi surprisedly found that the water tasted somewhat fresh because of something that was added in, which was like the taste of mint.

After finishing, Yun Muxi asked curiously, “What kind of ingredients have you put into the mouthwash? It tastes good!”

“Maiden, this is the fragrant mouthwash, made from Senecio cineraria. Every summer, Jinlin Senecio cineraria will bloom in Jin Lin City. It blooms at dawn but fades away at sunset. At the moment of its blossom, its fragrance will be the richest. People here will go out to pick the Senecio cineraria at dawn and make it into this kind of fragrant mouthwash. Different places will use different herbs to make fragrant mouthwashes, but Senecio cineraria fragrant mouthwash is the most popular one in Jin Lin City, which also tastes the best,” Ruixue explained to Yun Muxi patiently.

After a while, Yun Muxi still felt a fresh and faint fragrance remaining in her mouth, so she could not help highly praising the people here for being so smart that they could invent something so special, which was relatively like the mouthwash in her world.

Later, Chuxia planned to help to comb Yun Muxi’s hair, but suddenly stopped and did not know what to do with her short hair. People here always kept their hair long, both men and women. No one would cut their hair. Chuxia felt it was difficult when facing Yun Muxi’s weird hairstyle!

Yun Muxi took the comb from Chuxia and simply tidied her hair, plaiting the long parts on both sides that she kept deliberately.

Ruixue took Yun Muxi to pass by a corridor and went to the front dining hall, where Duanmu Gongyu was sitting by the table waiting for her.

There were more than 20 kinds of different cookies and dishes on the table, as well as two bowls of porridge.

Duanmu Gongyu gestured her to sit down in the chair beside him, saying while picking up the chopsticks to help her with some dishes, “I remember you were drunk last night, so I am afraid that your stomach may not feel very good. I asked Nanny Wu to prepare you some light dishes and cookies. I didn’t know your preference, so I prepared many types. Give it a try and find out which one suits your appetite.”

Sitting down beside him and looking at the delicious dishes on the table, Yun Muxi felt hungry. Since last night, she had not eaten anything, so her stomach felt empty. She touched her belly and said, “Wow, all of these look good! I really feel hungry!”

Duanmu Gongyu picked up the chopsticks and chose a kind of vegetable on the small dish in front of Yun Muxi, saying, “Try it. This is Chizi vegetable, which has the effect of making you sober up.”

She felt warmth and comfort in her mind. She had never thought that he was such a thoughtful man that he even remembered she was drunk last night after she just mentioned it once this morning. Then, he also took this seriously.

Such a warmhearted gesture made Yun Muxi feel touched. She was always a sensitive and thoughtful girl, so she would deeply keep everything that Duanmu Gongyu had done for her in mind and would feel that he was closer and more trustworthy.

Coming to such an unfamiliar place, he was the first person she had come into contact with. He did not reject her, but treated her so sincerely. He could be the only one she could rely on over here.

Thinking about this in her mind, Yun Muxi lifted her head to look at Duanmu Gongyu with gratitude and affection in her eyes.

Yun Muxi picked up the chopsticks and tasted the dishes. A refreshing juice passed by her throat to her stomach, which made her feel comfortable. Yun Muxi felt surprised. “This vegetable looks ordinary, but tastes really good.”

Duanmu Gongyu put on a smile and said, “Take more if you like it.”

Nanny Wu, Ruixue, Chuxia, and the other maids beside were all shocked by their master’s smile. They had never seen his smile. Especially Nanny Wu, she had not seen his smile for nearly 10 years at least.

Then, she could not help glancing at Yun Muxi more and thought that this girl had to be really important to the prince!

Yun Muxi was beautiful and fancy, who had a good personality. Now, Nanny Wu liked her more when seeing that she had affected the prince so much.

Yun Muxi and Duanmu Gongyu quietly finished the meal. Although the dishes tasted good, Yun Muxi did not have too much due to her drunkenness from last night.

After the meal, Duanmu Gongyu took Yun Muxi to the garden in the backyard. The latter started to carefully look around the whole courtyard and garden.

The architectural style here was not that style of magnificence, majesty, and luxury like the typical princes’ palace as she thought, but it had a kind of elegance, tranquility, and exquisiteness. She had seen plenty of princes’ palaces in her own era, each of which would try to show the identity and financial strength of the princes, so they would try their best to build their palaces in a luxurious style as much as possible.

However, Duanmu Gongyu’s prince palace did not show his priority. It looked like a chic courtyard, whose designs and materials were ingenious and whose details were unique. If the design styles could show its master’s personality, Duanmu Gongyu had to be a low-key person. Although he looked indifferent superficially, he looked forward to simple happiness and peaceful tranquility. He hoped to get the warmth from a family, a cozy family.

The garden was large in size, surrounded by trees. In the center, there was a clear pool standing between the meadow and the sea of flowers. Even if it was man-made, it also looked like a porter of nature. Everything was so harmonious and no trace of artificial works could be found.

At first glance, it was difficult to figure out the specific size of this garden. She felt that this garden was big and it nearly occupied more than half of the entire palace. There were plenty of lotus flowers in the lake, some of which were blooming. The white flowers were as white as snow, standing in the pool purely and nobly.

Small stones were scattered on the path by the lake, reflecting wonderful colors under the sun. This made Yun Muxi remember a classic line in a TV series, which said: I came to marry you on the colorful clouds.

Thinking of this, Yun Muxi could not help turning to Duanmu Gongyu beside her. He seemed to be warmer under the sun, looking like a quiet prince. Duanmu Gongyu in this way arose a slight sense of different emotions, which made her feel more comfortable.

A sea of flowers was on the side of the path that Yun Muxi had never seen before. She felt they were pretty. The small petals had two colors of lavender and white, giving out a sense of holiness and purity. She also could smell the unique elegant fragrance.

The sea of flowers was close to a forest. The trees were also a kind that Yun Muxi had never seen before. They were tall and towering, whose branches were wide-spreading to cover the sunshine. It made the palace more mysterious and one could not see the edge at a glance.

The woods were connected with the fake hills, cycling the pool in the center. There was an octagonal pavilion by the pool with white stone tables and stools. The whole garden was designed to be dreamy, containing a sense of poetry out of aestheticism and a sense of elegance out of mystery.

Yun Muxi found there was a hidden path in the sea of flowers. Stepping forward, she found there was a stone path that allowed one person to pass indeed. This path led to a flower-wrapped swing hanging under a big tree, which was hard to be found when standing far away because it was hidden in the sea of flowers and woods.

The shape of the swing was chic and elegant, recalling a dreamlike scene in a fairy tale.

Yun Muxi walked toward the swing involuntarily, followed by Duanmu Gongyu.

Yun Muxi walked to the swing and turned to Duanmu Gongyu with expectation and asked, “This swing is so beautiful. I like it. Can I get on it?”
