His words made Rui Wang's heart feel guilty. He picked up another chicken drumstick and placed it in Princess Changxin's bowl. The latter, however, angrily threw the chicken leg back into his bowl and mockingly said, "If Big Sister Mu Chen lets you eat it, then eat it. At worst, this princess will not eat it."

Rui Wang was helpless. However, the heartless Lin Mufan continued to urge him, "Eat, it's really delicious."

If it wasn't for this banquet, if he didn't have to take care of Princess Changxin's emotions, he really would have eaten it. However, he could only place the chicken leg back into Princess Changxin's bowl. Smiling, he said, "Princess likes to eat chicken leg, or Princess should eat princess instead. This subject will eat something else."

Only then did Princess Changxin's expression calm down. The Empress Dowager of the Western Palace finally let out a sigh of relief and intentionally put on a straight face as she lectured, "Zeshan, for someone who doesn't understand the rules, it's best for her to stay inside and not disgrace herself. If people see her, they might really think that our Revolving Moon Kingdom has failed to do so."

Long Ze replied, "Mother, Mu Chen is my imperial concubine. He can lose any woman on the table, but he can't miss her, right? Imperial Mother, don't worry. In the future, I will have someone properly teach Mu Fei how to behave. "

The empress dowager was flustered and exasperated, but her heart was well aware of Long Zhaofeng's feelings for Mu Fei, and she didn't want to continue bickering with him. In order to avoid hurting their relationship, he changed his tone and said, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's get down to business. The wedding ceremony between King Rui and Changxin will be held in a few days' time. Is everything ready?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Everything is ready." "Yes," King Rui replied.

"Mm, that's good." The empress dowager nodded her head and smiled, "In a few days, you will be Cloud Country's Grand Princess's Prince Consort. You must be careful when you go to Cloud Country, and get along well with the princess."

"I understand." Rui Wang felt a pang of grief. This was a feeling he would have every time he heard this!

"What Prince Consort? What going to the Cloud Country?" I didn't want to go back to the Cloud Country. " Princess Changxin suddenly spoke up, regretting her words. She had clearly been cheering for the fact that Prince Rui was willing to accompany her to the Cloud Kingdom the day before yesterday. At this moment … She admitted that she had been moved by the pain that King Rui had hidden deep in her heart.

She knew that Rui Wang didn't want to go with her to the Cloud Country, but at this moment, in order to make him happy, she turned down such a big matter. Heavens, she felt like she had gone crazy!

"Princess, what are you talking about? King Rui has already promised to accompany you back to the Cloud Country. " The empress dowager sized up Princess Changxin in confusion, not understanding how she had changed so much overnight.

"Forget it. I know that Rui Wang doesn't want to go. At worst, I'll just stay in the Revolving Moon Kingdom. It'll be the same no matter what." After taking a fierce bite, she suddenly felt that it wasn't worth it to pay such a price for a man who didn't have any feelings for her. She almost retorted and changed her mind.

However, her sudden change caused everyone to be stunned. King Rui was surprised. Long Zhaoting found this even more unbelievable. He sized her up and said, "Chang Xin, you didn't say that yesterday. Why did you change your mind today?"

"Aiya, a change is a change. How can there be so many reasons?" Princess Changxin put on a look of annoyance and waved her hands. She couldn't explain it either.

"Chang Xin, this is the emperor's will. You can't just change your mind." Ling Xiao also reminded him.

Princess Changxin shook her hands at him disapprovingly. "It doesn't matter. This princess will get in touch with Imperial Father over this matter. Since Imperial Father dotes on me the most, he'll definitely agree to let me stay in the Revolving Moon Kingdom."

After Princess Changxin finished speaking, she suddenly noticed that Long Zhaojie's expression was strange and immediately glared at him with feigned anger. "What's wrong? Brother Zeyu, don't you want me to stay in the Revolving Moon Kingdom? I promise I won't trouble you anymore! "

Long Ze was naturally unhappy in his heart. It wasn't easy for him to get this opportunity to send King Rui away and leave the Revolving Moon Kingdom. Princess Changxin had suddenly changed her mind, leaving this dangerous figure behind.

As long as King Rui did not marry or leave for a day, there was no way for him to calm down. No matter what Mu Chen became, he wouldn't give her up. He wouldn't give her up to another man!

"Of course not. It's also good if you can stay in the Revolving Moon Kingdom. I'll let you have your way." But you need to get in touch with your royal father. " Long Zhaoting forced a smile and said this.

"That's good too. In the future, we can sit and eat together." She got up and poured a glass of wine for him. Unfortunately, she had no idea that Longze couldn't drink alcohol, so she could be considered to have shown off in vain.

A hint of joy had just appeared in Rui Wang's heart, but was quickly washed away by reality. He understood Princess Changxin's stormy personality the best. What's decided today is likely to change its mind again tomorrow. Just like how she had excitedly wanted to return to the Cloud Country yesterday and had suddenly changed her mind today.

Although he really didn't want to go live in the Cloud Country, he had no other choice. If Princess Changxin really wanted to stay, he would be grateful! But could he really stay?

The banquet had dispersed rather early. Long Zhaoting embraced Lin Mufan and led the way out. When Lin Mufan left, the Rui King did not even dare to look at him, fearing that he might cause another misunderstanding.

King Rui and Princess Changxin rode the same carriage out of the palace. The carriage passed through the golden palace walls, leaving the palace in shame as it drove on the still bustling public road. Although it was already late at night, the shops on both sides of the street were still bustling with activity, and there were many people shopping in the shops.

Princess Changxin's heart stirred when she saw how lively it was outside. When the carriage passed a night market, she couldn't help but shout at the coachman, "Stop!"

The carriage came to a halt. Princess Changxin immediately took King Rui's arm and smiled. "Come, let's go for a stroll."

Rui Wang was resting with his eyes closed. He opened his eyes after hearing her shout, quickly pressing her arm before she jumped off the carriage. "Princess, it's getting late. Let's come back another day."

"Another day, another day. You already said that you would change the day, and you haven't accompanied me here either." Princess Changxin was unhappy with his complaints, but soon smiled and pulled him along. "It's better to choose a day than to crash into a day. Let's do it tonight."

"Princess …" Rui Wang still wanted to say something, but she cut him off, "Xiao Jue! What's wrong with you! "The emperor said that you have to properly make this princess happy. Right now, you're only going to make this princess angry!"

King Rui was not in the mood to run around like mad. Since Princess Gongxin had already said so, if he did not accompany him now, he would most likely be sent to the emperor's side again. He had no choice but to resist all objections as he got off the carriage with her.

Princess Changxin had been in the palace for far too long, and had never properly visited the bustling imperial city ever since she left the Prince Rui's estate. As soon as he got out of the carriage, he excitedly shuttled back and forth in the crowd like a little bird that had just left its cage. At the beginning, Rui Wang was still able to keep up, but later on, it was because she was too lively. It was hard to keep up with the people scuttling around here and there.

Finally, she decided to stand under an old pine tree and wait for her to stroll around. Leaning on the tree trunk, she looked around. It was filled with small items. This street was what Lin Mu Chen loved to visit the most. At that time, she couldn't leave due to the strict management of the Lin Residence. Every time, he would go to the Lin Residence to secretly bring her out.

He sometimes felt a headache coming on for this young daughter of the Lin Clan who loved to play, but most of the time, he felt happy. Every time she came out, she would be like Princess Changxin, shuttling back and forth through the streets and alleys, causing him to gasp for breath.

He was clearly the same mischievous person. He could be the kind to accompany Lin Mu Chen, even if he had to work so hard for him. She didn't even have the slightest thoughts towards Princess Changxin. Perhaps this was the difference between loving her and not loving her.

A beautiful man like King Rui, who stood by the side of the road, naturally attracted a large number of female spectators. He had long since gotten used to this sort of gaze that was close to infatuation, so he didn't pay any attention to it.

Princess Changxin did not see King Rui following her. She turned around and rushed in front of him, furiously shouting, "Hey! Are you sure? Hiding here to be lazy, makes me think that you have gone somewhere! "

"Princess, it's not safe here at night, we should head back earlier." King Rui smiled gently.

Princess Changxin sized him up with a nonchalant smile. "What's there to be afraid of? There's an expert like you here anyways. Who dares to bully me? I'll make sure he gets into trouble." With that, she turned around and started to squeeze into the crowd again.

Rui Wang helplessly followed. It really wasn't safe here at night. He wasn't shouting to scare Princess Changxin just now. In order to ensure her safety, he had to follow her. He felt bored, but Princess Changxin's interest was piqued. She would bring some rouge for him to smell, and then show him a hairpin.

Rui Wang responded with a gentle smile. When the corners of his mouth curled up, it was obvious that he was trying to force a smile on his face. Princess Changxin was infuriated by his' ah, ah, 'nonchalant response. She suddenly threw the chaste in her hand at him as she cried, "I can't take it anymore! If you want to go back! "Go back immediately!"

Rui Wang was stunned. Looking at her angry little face, he didn't know what to do. In a moment of desperation, he said, "The princess' safety is first. If the princess doesn't return, I naturally can't return either."

"Is that why you forced yourself to accompany me shopping? Was accompanying this princess shopping really that painful for you?! " Princess Changxin roared in anger, drawing gazes that seemed like they were waiting to watch a good show. Most of the people knew who Rui Wang was, so they were all discussing him. Everyone was curious about his complicated relationship with Mu Chen and Princess Changxin.

Rui Wang felt very embarrassed. The feeling of being looked at so plainly and for nothing was unbearable. Finally, he could understand the awkwardness in Lin Mu Fan's daily discussions.

"Princess, can we talk about it when we get back?" King Rui's scalp tingled as he suggested that he had never experienced quarrelling with a woman in public. No wonder people treated him like a monkey.

Princess Changxin was both angry and aggrieved. She couldn't care less if there were people crowding around her to watch the show. The gaze that stared at him was filled with tears, as he complained resentfully: "Xiao Jue! How can you be so heartless? Am I so annoying to you? In the past, you only loved Mu Chen and didn't like me. But now, Mu Chen is already married, but you still ignored me because of her … How can you be so heartless! "
