The study room was in a mess. Several bottles were placed on top of the desk. Mu Rong Ming was not here to take care of official business. He had just returned to the palace and had just gotten married.
He only recalled over and over again as he drank. He recalled how Yunsheng's expression when she saw him. Other than a polite smile, surprise, and surprise, there was no other hint of personal affection. Why was she so indifferent now?
The innocent girl from back then had completely disappeared, or perhaps it could be said that she had already changed. Currently, she was becoming more and more graceful, even though she was acting like a little bird beside Murong Yu, she had still transformed from a young girl into a real little girl. This kind of change wasn't bad, it was just not because of him.
He truly regretted it now. Not only had he repeatedly compromised in front of his mother, but he had also underestimated his own plans. He had thought that no matter where Yue Er was, at least her heart would always belong to him.
How could he save it all? After thinking for an entire day and night, he still could not think of any good methods. Could it be that he had no choice but to let go? It was fine that the two of them looked like strangers, but even though they were so close, they would always have the chance to meet. Did he have to helplessly watch as she smiled coquettishly in the arms of another man? Even though that man was his brother, he would only appear a little more cruel!
He couldn't do it, he really couldn't! As long as he thought of how he had protected her for ten years, Yue'er, who was originally his, would no longer have anything to do with him, it made his heart feel like it was being pierced by a knife. If he couldn't even protect his beloved one, then what would happen if he obtained more things.
"Prince, don't drink anymore. The imperial concubine has already summoned you twice." The young eunuch trembled in fear as he replied.
Murong Hui glared at him with his bloodshot eyes and said coldly, "If I don't want to go, then so be it. Just go back to reality and stop bothering me!"
"Prince …" The young eunuch was unwilling to give up.
"Scram!" Even a young eunuch wouldn't listen to him? What kind of lousy wine is this? Why couldn't he get drunk when he wanted to?
"What are you doing?" Qian Yulian finally came in person. At first, she didn't report anything about Murong Chong, but when she found that she couldn't hide it anymore, she had to report everything to Qian Yulian. She had to come over herself, but this was the first time Murong Mingtian didn't listen to her.
"All of you, go down!" After saying that, the eunuchs and maids hurriedly left the room and even closed the door behind them. Qian Yulian glanced at the table with a look of displeasure on her face, "Are you the son of I, Qian Yulian? That's all? To think that I placed so much hope on you, yet you are so disappointing. To be able to become like this just for a daughter, you are truly inferior to your royal father! "
Murong Ming sneered: "So what if this son of mine is not as good as royal father? "Why should mufei push him too far!
"Did I force you too much? Is that what you think? Mufei was selfish indeed, but mufei always wanted to step on that woman's head one day, but mufei was more for your future ah! The Crown Prince has an unfathomable scheming mind and is a diligent king with outstanding ability. Do you think that you will be able to get away with it just by going back to the palace and bestowing the title of a prince? No matter which of them ascends to the throne in the future, you will never have a good ending. You will most likely be sent to the desolate Northwest like King Carefree, or be simply unable to tolerate you! "
Qian Yulian continued, "Mufei has worked so hard and finally got to this point. Our strength is no longer any weaker than the empress or the crown prince, everything is prepared, we are only a sliver away from the east wind, yet you refuse to perform well. Your father is gentle and kind, but he has seen everything, and will not let mufei's ten years of hard work go to waste."
Qian Yulian's face was flushed and turned pale. Her face was filled with anger, but she could not fly into a rage. Her mouth opened and closed for a while before she took a deep breath to suppress her anger and said, "Aren't you thinking about that girl, Yun Sheng? If you definitely wanted Mufei to think of a way to get it for you, that's fine. As long as you listen to mufei, if you continued to be dispirited, would Yun Shengyue still fall for you? What right do you have to compare yourself with Murong Yu! "
"I have never thought of comparing with him. Yue Er is mine to begin with, so you sent her away from me. Don't think that I don't know anything. Are you really thinking for me? " Mu Rong Ming finally jumped up and retorted loudly.
Qian Yulian was surprised. She had never seen Murong Ming speak like this before, so she felt a bit upset. After a moment of silence, she said slowly, "This thing with Sheng Yue was mufei's fault. Mufei never thought that you would use such deep feelings for her. What do you want her to do when she's pregnant with the King's child? "
"It's my business whether I want her or not. If mufei still wants me to cooperate with your plans in the future, don't interfere in my and Yun Shengyue's matters. Otherwise, I don't know if I'll lose all my hopes …" Murong Ming suddenly said with a serious expression.
Qian Yulian was even more shocked. She was clearly trying to negotiate with Ye Xiao. That was not right! "Fine, mufei won't ask any more questions about that girl, but you can't act rashly. You have to consider each other's identities, and don't get drunk or hurt yourself like that, you have to believe that you're the only one mufei's reliance and motivation. You think mufei's actions are not for you, just for herself, but think carefully, without you, mufei wouldn't be able to fight for more things, and mufei's only a woman after all."
"This son understands! Mufei, please go back. Your son is going to take a bath. " Mu Rong Zhen said indifferently. His face regained its calm, and his eyes became so cold that one could no longer see his emotions.
Qian Yulian hesitated for a while before she finally left the Jade Palace. Although she was full of anger, she knew that it wouldn't do them any good to be forced into a corner.
After Qian Yulian left, Murong Hui swept the wine bottle on the table and unfurled a picture scroll. In the picture, a pretty girl dressed in pink stood under the phoenix tree that was covered in golden petals.
"Then I'll be waiting for you in Jincheng. Come and fetch me as soon as possible." She had looked forward to him so much.
He had disappointed her time and time again. Originally, she had wholeheartedly supported him and even promised Murong Yu that she would be able to regain her freedom after two years. It must be Murong Yu.
He was too careless. How could he trust a man's verbal promise as easily as a simple moon? Yue'er's good fortune had been discovered by him after all. He was already Yue'er's nominal husband, so he had confidently and confidently owned her.
On the night of the crown prince's wedding, Murong Yu had clearly treated Yue'er as his possession, and the look in his eyes and posture clearly showed that he wouldn't let her go. However, Yue'er and Yue'er didn't know anything.
He shouldn't blame her for being ruthless! He couldn't just let her go so easily. He had to hide in the palace and drink to dispel his worries. He had to think of a better way. Yue Er belonged to him, so no matter what, he had to get her back to him.
Murong Hui gently held onto the face of the person in the painting. Finally, his fighting spirit was reignited, and his gaze became even more profound …
"Third brother, why are you here at Jincheng again so soon?" Lu Shiyun was very surprised. After receiving news of Lu Shixun, she finally found an excuse to leave the palace. However, she was still surprised to see Lu Shixun.
"Hehe, I can't bear to part with you. I haven't even gone back yet!"
"What?" Why hadn't he returned to the Southern Champion Kingdom for so long? Didn't the Emperor urge you? " Lu Shiyun's eyes widened. Lu Shixun's relationship with Emperor Huang was quite ordinary. There was no reason for the Emperor to let him stay in Northern Heng for so long.
Lu Shixun replied nonchalantly, "He's the one who urged him. What I want to do is my own business! I stayed in Bei Heng. On one hand, Bei Heng had something that interested me, and on the other hand, I wanted to avoid him. If I were to go back, wouldn't I be ordered by him to do this and to do that? "These are all things that you have to work hard for. If you can avoid them, then go ahead."
"Then what else do you need from Bei Heng?"
Lu Shixun looked at Lu Shiyun, who was as calm and composed as she was when she was not married, hesitated for a moment before asking, "Is the crown prince not nice to you?"
"Ah …" Who said that? " Lu Shiyun felt a little uncomfortable.
You don't need to hide it for him. If it wasn't for the fact that he treated his princess consort the same as all the other women, I would have already come and interrogated him. Yun'er, you are just too quiet.
"Third Brother, don't worry about this, actually this isn't a bad thing either. I have married a long time ago, and originally, I didn't have any backers in the palace, so if His Highness treats me too well, it will attract jealousy and lead to trouble instead. Now that I can live a peaceful life like this, what's wrong with that?" Lu Shiyun analyzed calmly.
Lu Shixun leaned back in his chair and chuckled, "I knew you would say that. You are right, but don't be too calm, calm to the point where he would forget about your existence. You are still so young, if you continue to live your life alone like this for the rest of your life, then that would be too boring."
"I understand. Thank you, third brother, for not only caring for me in Bei Heng, but for what?" Lu Shiyun did not want to talk about her relationship with the crown prince, so she quickly changed the topic.
