Hearing these words, the Crown Prince nodded, "So that's how it is. Stand up and speak, there's no need to be so restrained."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Mu Ru Yue, like all the other girls, blushed before she asked carefully, "Your Highness, I don't know the way back. Can Your Highness please send someone to bring me to the imperial garden? I think it's time for mother to look for this little girl. "
Mu Ru Yue's plan was perfect. He wanted a palace maid to bring her to the imperial garden and wait for Feng Li to come find her. He could even get rid of the Crown Prince. However … This plan could never keep up with change.
Just as Mu Ru Yue was lamenting that her plan was perfect, the man's faint voice rang out. "I am heading to the imperial garden. Let's continue our journey."
Mu Ru Yue was stupefied after hearing what he said.
What kind of joke was this?
She just wanted to get rid of the crown prince! If they went to the royal garden together and met someone who talked too much, wouldn't they expose their identity?
Mu Ru Yue was anxious, but the crown prince had already taken his first step. He even glanced back at her, as if to say, Why aren't you following me?
Helpless, Mu Ru Yue could only bite the bullet and follow him.
On the way, Mu Ru Yue stood behind the crown prince, while the others stayed far away from the two of them. Who would want to get involved in this situation? Although the crown prince did not show any anger on his return, anyone who was rejected by an unknown woman would be furious!
Mu Ru Yue was the Seventh Marquis' wangfei, and she was still alive!
If something happened to Murong Yue, the Seventh Marquis might even skin them alive. Therefore, the best method was to follow at the back and pretend that she did not recognize who it was!
On one side, Mu Ru Yue was pretending to be a noble daughter of a family in front of the Crown Prince, while on the other.
A middle-aged man dressed in a dragon robe was in the middle of reviewing the imperial study. After a long while, the eunuch by the side passed the middle-aged man a cup of tea, and the middle-aged man finally spoke, "You've been kneeling for so long, is there anything you want to say?"
"This son does not know what royal father would like to hear." There was no trace of life in her beautiful peach blossom eyes.
"Humph!" The emperor snorted and threw the teacup in front of Feng Zi, sneering. "What a great 'I don't know what I want to hear'. I'm asking you, why is it that the crown prince's fiancée became your wangfei? And you gave the phoenix imprint back to the crown prince in public? "
"I'm afraid I'll have to ask the Prime Minister about this." Feng Chen mocked.
The Emperor reprimanded him coldly.
Feng Chen just lowered her head and chuckled. He did not speak.
"What are you laughing at? What? Do you think I'm wrong? " The Emperor asked unkindly. That old face was filled with rage.
Feng Chen lifted her head and looked at the person who was reprimanding her. This was his own royal father. Obviously, he was the one who wanted this matter to happen. He wanted Murong Yue to marry him and Murong Xi to marry the crown prince. If he didn't agree behind his back, how would a mere Left Premier dare to agree?
It was clearly his intention, but because of Mu Ru Yue's actions, he felt that it was intentional. He wanted to use this method to warn him not to touch the position of the crown prince. In the eyes of royal father, the number of princes and princesses in the palace may not even be equal to a single Phoenix Crown Prince!
