Wanyun took a sip of hot tea and said, "I'm not afraid of being gossiped about in town. And how many people in town would really dare to call me a jinx?
"The Mu Family got what they deserved. They harmed the common people. I arrived at the Mu Family, and the Mu Family fell. Shouldn't that mean I'm a lucky star for Daqi?"
Zhao Yang said, "But..."
Wanyun knew why Qin Zhi had sent Zhao Yang to invite her to the banquet. He was afraid Mu Wanruo would be punished by Lu Jingxing and hoped that if she attended, Mu Wanruo would be spared.
Wanyun said to Zhao Yang, "Go back and tell Qin Zhi that Mu Wanruo is still pregnant. I will persuade His Majesty not to punish her. You may go back now."
Zhao Yang could only clasp his hands and withdraw.
Not long after Zhao Yang left, Lu Jingxing arrived at Chaohua Courtyard.
Lu Jingxing entered and saw Wanyun dressed very warmly, reading a book. "Yunyun."
