"Since the princess has no intention of eating with me and Lady Meng Yan, someone, bring the princess' meals to her room and serve her well!" As Shen Hanxin spoke, he glanced at the maidservants by his side. Naturally, the maidservants obeyed. Before Xia Hou Yuying could retort, the tray in front of them was carried out of the main hall.

Shen Hanxin! What do you mean? Who is your consort now? " Xia Hou Yuying glared at Shen Hanxin, and refused to let him go.

"If this king does not remember wrongly, the grand marriage between a princess and this king should be in half a month, or at least within this half month, there will be no wangfei in the Mu King's manor. Of course, if Princess Yuying feels that eating alone is too monotonous, then this king can send Wind Blade to accompany you, what say you?" Shen Hanxin's long eyes narrowed, a look of ridicule flashing through them. Hearing this, Xia Hou Yuying naturally understood Shen Hanxin's hidden meaning, and left in a rage.

Looking at the back view of Xia Hou's jade-like figure, Duan Mu Yan couldn't help but shake her head. Sooner or later such a violent temper would bring her a calamity.

"Don't you think Meng Yan's tone was too harsh?" Shen Han Xin pursed her lips, looking at the girl beside her with a meaningful gaze. In his eyes, Duan Mu Yan seemed to have no fear. If he didn't have the heart to accompany her to have a meal this morning, what would have happened yesterday?

"The tone of the Mu King is not much better than Meng Yan's, and Meng Yan does not think that bowing down is enough to protect her, if that's the case, then there's no need for Meng Yan to be wronged. If you mind, Prince, she can just restrain herself from now on." Her tone did not contain the slightest hint of guilt.

"Well said! What Ben Wang cares about is that Lady Meng Yan's tone is too soft! Although Xia Hou Yu Yinggui is a princess, this is the Mu King Manor. If she acts recklessly again, Miss Meng Yan can ask the merchant to teach her a lesson. Shen Hanxin liked Duan Mu Yan's personality. His heart had been completely captivated by her calm demeanor.

"Meng Yan has remembered it." However, she did not want to cause any more trouble. Since Xia Hou Yu was staying at the Mu King Manor, she might as well go out for a walk. Perhaps, she might be able to obtain some unexpected gains.

After their breakfast, Duan Moyan wanted to leave, but Yin Shang Rong walked out from the backyard.

"Where is Miss Meng Yan going? Why is it not called Shang Rong? " Yin Shang Rong spoke with a light voice, his face was paler than yesterday. It was likely that Xia Hou Yuying had been very harsh on him.

"Since you're injured, I'll be taking a rest at the mansion for a day. I'm just going out to take a walk. Nothing will happen to you." As a woman as well, if the two whips were to land on her body, she truly did not know whether she would be able to stand up again at this moment.

"This small injury isn't too hard for the merchant. Currently, Princess Xia Hou is always making her an enemy. It's better for the merchant to stay on the left and right side of her." Seeing her resolute gaze, Duan Mu Yan no longer refused. When the two of them walked out of the residence, two palanquins stopped in front of the entrance.

"Meng Yan, you guys have come out. This king has been waiting for a long time." Duan Muyan's body involuntarily trembled when she heard those words. She saw that the man before her was dressed in a gorgeous purple robe and had a black veil covering his face. Only his eyes were still as resplendent as ever.

"What happened to Duke Han today?" Yin Shang Rong looked suspiciously at Shen Hansheng, asking in surprise.

"It's nothing. This King has always kept a low profile." Shen Hansheng subconsciously stroked the black veil on his face as he said those words.

"Duke Han is really modest …" Yin Qingrong, who was standing at the side, said bitterly.

"It's Duke Han's business to keep a low profile. I wonder what are the intentions of these two palanquins?" Even though Duan Mu Yan felt that Shen Han Sheng's actions were strange, she couldn't figure out the reason behind it.

"The sun is very poisonous today, so Han Sheng specially prepared a palanquin for the two of you. "Please!" After pondering for a long time, Duan Moyan finally walked over to the sedan. She wanted to see what tricks Shen Hansheng had up his sleeve.

"I appreciate your kindness, King Han. However, it's better if you stay by Lady Meng Yan's palanquin. I don't want anyone to harm Lady Meng Yan and you won't have the time to protect her." Yin Shang Rong was aware of her mission, so she didn't dare to let her guard down.

The bustling streets were still filled with dazzling merchandise. The cries of hawkers rose and fell one after another. There were also experts trying their best to attract the attention of passersby.

"The critical moment is about to come! Everyone, don't close your eyes! "Little one, are you ready?" Baili Chuxiong looked at the tiny thing hanging from the pole as he shouted.

"Begin!" Xiao Lingfeng nodded his head vigorously, and in the next second, he threw out five daggers from his hands, which were pointed in different directions. The daggers were pointed high up in the air, and in the next second, Xiao Jin Feng threw out five daggers from his hands, which were aimed in different directions.

"Alright …" At this moment, Duan Mu Yan's palanquin just happened to pass by and when she heard the cheers from outside, Duan Mu Yan subconsciously lifted the palanquin curtain and with a glance, she saw the man standing in the middle. His majestic figure was akin to a shrine in the sunlight, and his silver mask was emitting a dazzling light.

Why did he have such a feeling? Suddenly, an intermittent image appeared in her mind. It was a huge fire, and amidst the smoke and fire, she seemed to see a figure struggling within it. As for her, she could only helplessly stand there, as though her heart was empty.

Just when Duan Mu Yan was astonished by her own reaction, that handsome face, which was covered by a black veil, untimely blocked her line of sight.

"I'll have to trouble Duke Han to get out of the way!" Duan Mu Yan hurriedly spoke in her heart as she stretched her hands out to push Shen Han Sheng away, yet she was too distracted and didn't have enough strength to do so.

"The sunlight is really fierce! Is Meng Yan thirsty? " At this moment, the speed of the sedan bearer increased under Shen Hansheng's secret reminder.

"Stop the palanquin!" Duan Moyan couldn't be bothered about interacting with Shen Hansheng. She had to find out how her heart throbbed for no reason. If it wasn't for the fact that she was inextricably linked to that person, she definitely wouldn't have that kind of feeling. Even though Duan Muyan had spoken, the sedan bearers were still hurrying on their way, as if they were in their eardrums.

"Shang Rong!" Hurry up and make them stop … " As she spoke, she had already lifted up the curtain of the sedan chair. Even if the sedan bearer did not alight from the sedan, she would still jump down. Seeing this scene, Shen Hansheng could only order her to stop. In the next second, Duan Mu Yan had already dashed out of the sedan chair and dashed in the direction of the masked man. Shen Hansheng's sword-like eyebrows creased tightly. A cold glint flashed in his eyes as he chased after Jiang Chen. Only Yin Xiangrong was confused. She had no idea what had happened.

However, the crowd had long since dispersed by the time Duan Moyan had arrived, to say nothing of those who had performed well in the past.

"Uncle, may I ask where the man who was acting just now went?" Duan Muyan surveyed her surroundings, but to no avail, she stopped an old man and asked.

"Miss, you came late. They have already dispersed. Perhaps you might come tomorrow. You should come earlier next time …" The old man said with good intentions. Speechless, Duan Muyan stood there in a daze as she recalled the feeling she felt earlier. Her heart was in a state of chaos.

"It's just a juggling. If you want to see it, how about I find a dozen or so of them for you to see?" Seeing that Xiao Jin Feng had already disappeared, Shen Han Sheng breathed in a long breath. As before, he remained speechless. Duan Mu Yan's eyes flashed as he looked straight at Shen Hansheng, his suspicions were clear in her eyes. Shen Han Sheng was obviously doing this on purpose. He didn't want his to meet with that masked man? Or did he not want that person to recognize him?

Unable to look straight into Duan Muyan's questioning eyes, Shen Hansheng's thin lips curled up slightly before he stretched out his hand to block his path.

"The sun is so poisonous …" At this moment, Yin Shang was unable to bear it any longer.

"Don't you think that it's a cloudy day?" Closing his words, Shen Hansheng was petrified. At this moment, Shen Hansheng's actions were so comical that she had no choice but to laugh. However, deep in her heart, the series of questions left her in no mood to stroll around.

"Shang Rong, return to your residence!" After throwing down those words, Duan Mu Yan slowly walked past Shen Hansheng and directly towards the sedan. The moment Duan Mu Yan left, Shen Han Sheng's gaze turned cold. The light in his eyes flashed as he looked in the direction where Xiao Jin Feng had disappeared.

"Big Brother Feng, what are you looking at?" Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask in concern when she saw Xiao Lingfeng suddenly stop.

"Ugh …" No. "Let's go …" Xiao Jin Feng couldn't help but speak as he looked at the bustling street. In that instant, he could clearly feel a sinister gaze staring at him. Who was it …

The Badlands Court.

When Zheng Tingze walked out of the inner chamber with a tired body, Duan Haonan, Long Yin, and Dou Jing, who were all court officials of the Great Mo Emperor, hastily walked over.

"How is the Emperor?" Duan Haonan hurriedly spoke, and the worried expression in his eyes was obvious.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor has woken up, but his body is still unable to leave the Dragon Couch. The Supreme Emperor has ordered this official to invite His Majesty and a few other important ministers in." Zheng Ting Ze spoke truthfully. Hearing these words, Duan Haonan was the first to step into the inner room. Long Yin and Dou Jing looked at each other without saying anything and followed.

"Greetings, Imperial Nephew Duan Haonan!" The moment he saw Duan Chen on the bed, Duan Haonan respectfully knelt to show his respect.

"Get up... Good... Young Master Li has been talking about the matters of the court for a long time. Long Yin, Dou Jing, you have done very well, Mu Yan has been missing for so long, the country cannot be left without a ruler. Haonan is the best candidate to inherit the throne. "Hao'er, come here …." On the bed, both of Duan Chen's temples had turned white. His aged appearance no longer possessed the domineering and heroic spirit from back then. If he was not currently lying on the dragon bed, he would only be an old man in his later years.

"Your Majesty, rest assured. This subject will not disappoint Your Majesty's teachings. This subject will also vow to find the third sister and bring her back!" Duan Haonan firmly said. His eagle-like eyes emitted the aura of a natural born king.

"Good!" I believe in you! It's been hard on you! I haven't chatted with Long Yin and Dou Jing for a long time. Only then did I open my mouth, unable to stop myself from talking. Haonan, you're busy ahead of time, I'd like to talk about old times with them … "Cough …" Duan Chen's voice was low and his eyes were filled with a layer of mist.

"This official's nephew will take his leave!" Duan Hao and the rest of the group naturally understood what Duan Chen meant. After respectfully bowing, he turned around and left. In the next second after Duan Haonan left, Long Yin and Dou Jing knelt on the ground with eyes full of guilt.
