Yay! I can`t believe it! Its a hard work but kind of fulfilling. Cheers to the other translators out there! I knew from before doing this, that it takes time and effort to translate novels but now, to actually experience it, it is a totally different level. My respect just tripled! It is amazing guys! I love you!

This is an early chapter release to celebrate teacher`s day since we did not get to celebrate last September 30 for the Translators day!

The Aloof Prince Chapter 35 - Sleight

Mu Yunjin saw that in the dining hall everyone has gone only leaving her and Chu Li so she might as well get right to the point.

“Can you possibly stop Justice officer Chen Pu from investigating yesterday`s murder case at the Xiang Fu?”

“You are being blackmailed?”

Chu Li`s brows and eyes moved a little, if memory serves him right, she should be the victim, to stop the investigation, apart from being blackmailed there seems to be no other reason. When Mu Yunjin heard him, she squinted and her mouth twitched. She find a chair to sit down as she helplessly say.

“My wet nurse is being held in secret by my mother.”

“Therefore in this battle she won.”

Chu Li listening to Mu Yunjin, hooked up the corner of his mouth, amused he opened his mouth to speak.

“You are so easily admitting defeat?”

“Of course not, but there are losers and there are winners, and this time I would just let her be proud of herself for a few days, my top priority is to save Aunt Zhang.”

Mu Yunjin leaned on her chair, speaking of Aunt Zhang, her heart is anxious.

“Therefore I can only come to try and ask for your help, your words hold more weight. The Justice officer will likely spare no effort and won`t give me face, but if it is you that will not be the case.”

Mu Yunjin explained. Chu Li rarely see her admit defeat, at this moment he thought that this small fox also have deflated time. He can`t help but want to tease her.

“What if this prince is busy to do the favor?”

“I have personally come to visit you, isn`t it enough to show my sincerity, Your Highness Sixth Prince, you won`t be so unkind right?”

Mu Yunjin serenely looked towards Chu Li her words filled with teasing. Chu Li did not reply to Mu Yunjin. Then there was a knock on the door to the dining hall, Ding Xian`s voice sounded.

“Your Highness, Princess Qingyuan is here.”

As soon as the announcement was made, a person pushed open the door, wearing a beautiful pink silk skirt, a woman entered, her jet-black hair is like a spring draped over her shoulders and loosely fell unto her waist, with fair skin, she is wearing a quick-witted expression and look no more than 13 or 14 years old. Mu Yunjin saw the person who came, she wrinkled her eyebrows thinking of Qing Yuan`s name for a long time she finally remembered. Chu Qingyuan is the Ninth princess. Chu Qingyuan upon entering the door, her pair of big eyes fell upon Mu Yunjin`s body, looking at her from top to bottom, then frowned.

“Who are you? and why are you in Sixth brother`s palace?”

She naturally know her sixth brother`s temper is quite cold, very few people have dealings with him, even with father emperor he is cold and indifferent. At the moment unexpectedly there is a woman sitting here. And there were only the two of them inside the dining hall. Seeing that Chu Qing Yuan suddenly came, Mu Yunjin had no choice but to introduce herself.

“Mu Xiang Fu`s, Mu Yunjin.”

“Mu Yunjin.....”

Chu Qingyuan digest Yunjin`s name for a while before widening her eyes in surprise.

“You are that woman Sixth brother`s going to marry?”

Mu Yunjin lazily gave a grunt of affirmation. Simply put, Chu Qingyuan eyes got bigger, then she circled around Mu Yunjin, walking around her, spinning back and forth non-stop, eyeing Mu Yunjin`s body, top to bottom. Honestly, Mu Yunjin being looked upon like this is beginning to get angry, then she heard Chu Qingyuan gasp as she walked over Chu Li.

“Sixth brother, those people really speak the truth, this Mu Yunjin really is a beauty, Qingyuan have never seen such a beautiful person!”

Mu Yunjin`s anger is immediately extinguished, she cannot help but look towards Chu Qingyuan`s back, her eyebrow raising, this girl`s manner is not so good but her words, contrary to what she expected is pleasant to hear. Soon after, Chu Qingyuan turned towards Mu Yunjin with a sweet smile.

“Sixth sister in law, I am Qingyuan, ninth among the siblings.”

With the words Sixth sister in law, Mu Yunjin nearly spat out blood, yet facing Chu Qing Yuan`s exceptionally warm eyes, Mu Yunjin had forced a smile, and gave a friendly nod.

“Qingyuan have come just in time.”

Chu Li looked at her younger sister with a rare expression that is not cold.

“Chen Pu this person, is most afraid of Qingyuan.”

“Chen Pu?”

Upon mentioning Chen Pu, Chu Qingyuan became excited.

“What`s going on with that rotten old man?”

.........

Inside the carriage going to the Judicial Office, Mu Yunjin is with Qingyuan, she did not expect that her trip to the Palace will let her meet the ninth Princess Qingyuan.

“Sixth sister in law, in the palace, my Sixth brother is the closest person to me, because he has the same mother as me, therefore compared to others we are much more closer.”

Chu Qingyuan said across from her with a smiling expression. Mentioning the same mother, Mu Yunjin cannot help but be curious.

“Who is your mother?”

Having heard her question, Chu Qingyuan`s smiling face suddenly collapsed, her eyes showing a touch of sadness.

“Mother is one of the concubines in the harem, Rong Fei, but ten years ago because of a matter, she offended Father Emperor, now she is imprisoned for life outside the city at Shui Yun Temple.”

Mu Yunjin`s heart felt somewhat different upon hearing Qing Yuan. She had been here for so long now, but she actually never knew that Chu Li`s mother is imprisoned at Shui Yun Temple. Shui Yun temple is the temple she and Zi Xiang visited that day. Mu Yunjin sighed a little, she felt again that entering the palace is like entering a deep ocean, maybe someday she will have an end the same as Rong Fei. Soon the carriage stopped in front of the Judicial Office. Mu Yunjin and Chu Qing Yuan dismounted the carriage. They saw Chen Pu come out from inside and slowly move to meet them, he cupped his hands and bow on ceremony.

“This servant meets the Ninth Princess.”

Then he nodded towards Mu Yunjin.

“Greetings to Third Miss Mu.”

“Little old man, seeing this princess you seem unhappy?”

Chu Qingyuan smiling as she looked at Chen Pu. Mu Yunjin hearing him called as little old man, she cannot stop herself from laughing. Chen Pu, although not very young, but he is only forty years old in appearance, being called as an old man is exaggerating a little.

“Princess, your presence is an honor naturally I am happy. Coming here today, what important matter do you want to discuss?”

As soon as Chen Pu`s words were said, Chu Qingyuan has already walked inside. Chu Qingyuan with no trace of politeness, directly went to Chen Pu`s office to take a seat and flip through a few random books on the table.

“Princess, these are recently finished case that needs to be given to the emperor to look over. Asking the princess to be a little careful.”

Chen Pu looked at the properly arranged books become disordered so he hurriedly informed the princess. Hearing Chen Pu mention her father, Chu Qingyuan obediently let go of the books. Soon after, Chu Qingyuan looked towards Chen Pu with a smile.

“Little old man, recently this princess has just returned to the palace and is currently idle and bored, I considered that coming here will not let me stay idle. It would be better to allocate a few case to let this princess give a try to unravel okay?”

When Chen Pu heard her idea, he trembled in fear as he immediately bent down towards Chu Qingyuan.

“Princess, this is the Judicial Office, there are many cases that involves many lives. Princess must not be so willful.”

“Are you saying that I am willful? Little old man, you do know that father loves me dearly?”

Chu Qingyuan pounded on the table.

“No, no, no, this servant does not mean...”

Chen Pu have difficulty in debating, his face a little ugly. Pausing, Chu Qingyuan looked towards Mu Yunjin with a proud look then smiled.

“So why don`t you give the Mu Xiang Fu case to me.”

Chen Pu was surprised for a moment, then thinking that they came together, he glanced at Mu Yunjin, his mind immediately understood Chu Qingyuan and Mu Yunjin`s purpose of coming.

“Third Miss Mu, for this case we have already made a few sketches, I am afraid that we are still verifying the result.”

Mu Yunjin heard Chen Pu`s words, she replied as she lightly hooked up the corner of her mouth.

“Even an honest and upright official will have difficulty resolving a family dispute. This matter Chen daren had better stay out of it.”

“Oh dear, since that is the case, in this way it is certainly not good but I am reluctant.”

..........

At the Xiang Fu, inside the Blue Sky Courtyard.

`Bang`

Mu Yunjin from the Judicial Office brought the case record book and threw it straight in front of Su Biqing.

“This matter is already settled, in an hour I want to see Aunt Zhang.”

Mu Yunjin coldly opened her mouth. Su Biqing picked up the case record book and carefully flip through it. Seeing the contents inside and the Judicial Office Seal on the cover she is both fearful and happy. Most fortunate.

“Yunjin is really resourceful, mother is not wrong about you.”

Su Biqing then threw the Case record book to the side on the long prepared coal flames.

“Talk less nonsense and release that person.”

Mu Yunjin said. Su Biqing heard her and smiled, she waved the palm-leaf fan on her hands, her eyes flickered.

“Mother previously really looked down on you, I was anxious that you won`t finish the thing that I entrusted to you. Now it seems that Yunjin is indeed different. Since that is the case, why don`t you go and help mother a favor?”

Mu Yunjin cynically smiled and crossed her arms together she lowered her eyes to look disdainfully out of the corner of her eyes at Su Biqing.

“On my way back to the Fu, I found the brothel street is bustling with noise and excitement. I think mei mei even though that face is barely enough to look at, as a woman there are some things she has. Maybe she could possible fetch a high price in there!”

“You dare?”

Su Biqing heard Mu Yunjin`s macabre words, she glared at her.

“You don`t believe that I can order a person to kill Aunt Zhang?”

Mu Yunjin`s line of sight went straight to Su Biqing with a hidden killing intent.

“It seems that mother deliberately wants to break her promise. Good! let us give it a try, within half an hour if I don`t get to see Aunt Zhang in good condition, then the brothel`s private room will be Mu Lingzhu`s fate tonight!”

Su Biqing was stupefied by Mu Yunjin`s resolute coldness, she can`t help but feel a little afraid, her att.i.tude softened a little, she immediately waved behind her towards Aunt Li.

“Go and bring out that person.”

“Yes Furen.”

Aunt Li left, Mu Yunjin took a seat, seemingly already exhausted all of her patience as she stared fixedly at Su Biqing.

“My patience is not very good, first time, second time, I will still be interested in accompany you in your play. But if there is a third time or fourth times, perhaps I might go for the kill...”

Mu Yunjin then brought out a dagger from her sleeves, with lightning fast moves, she firmly pierced it in Su Biqing`s hair that is pulled in a bun. Aware that on top of her head at this moment is a dagger, Su Biqing is frightened and is trembling from head to foot. She looked at Mu Yunjin as if she was a h.e.l.l Ghost General, she trembled incessantly. She did not know when but her life is unexpectedly being taunted many times in the hand of this person. Really good luck in handling this person.
