Mu Xi was also pondering along the way. It was likely that Feng Tian wanted to see her. Being able to achieve the position of emperor was indeed not simple. However, there was nothing for her to be afraid of. She secretly noted down the locations of the various places and routes in the palace. Soon, she arrived at the imperial garden.

Feng Tian was currently tasting tea with the Empress Lu Yingman, who had a dignified and graceful appearance. Although he looked kind, it was only on the outside. Upon seeing the newcomer, Feng Tian warmly greeted the empress, as if she wasn't his official, but an old friend.

Feng Tian laughed as he said to Qin Ying, "My beloved daughter, I heard that you have recently found your long-lost granddaughter. This is truly a joyous occasion. I've been rather busy recently, and haven't seen this granddaughter of yours. "

Lu Yingman also affectionately pulled on Mu Xi's arm and said, "Your name is Mu Xi, right? It's just like your sister, the morning sun, it's so beautiful. "You are such a lovable girl."

Mu Xi replied casually, "Thank you for the empress's praise. You're very pretty too. Those who don't know you'd think we were the same age." When Lu Yingman heard this, he couldn't help but continuously praise Mu Xi with a smile on his face.

Feng Tian said to Qin Ying, "My beloved one, why didn't you prepare a welcoming banquet for Mu Xi? It can't be that we don't like this granddaughter, right? If you don't want it, we'll take it.

So that was what he was planning to do. She replied meekly, "Because when I came here, elder sister had disappeared without a trace. I feel really sorry, and I don't have the time to attend the welcoming banquet. I don't know how elder sister is doing …" As he spoke, his eyes became misty and his voice choked with emotions.

Lu Yingman quickly comforted them: "It's fine, that kid Chu Zhaoyang was lucky. He'll be fine, you guys don't have to worry. The more I look at you, the more I like you. Why don't you marry Yun Xiang and become my daughter?

Feng Tian also seized the opportunity and chased after Qin Ying, saying, "The reason why I announced this meeting today was to discuss the marriage between Yun Xiang and Mu Xi. I wonder how you like your beloved one? "

Qin Ying pretended to look terrified, and said, "Crown Prince Jin Gui, our Xi'er cannot reach that level. Besides, this child just came back, and I still want her to stay by my side for a while longer. I really don't want her to marry so early. "That's why we appreciate your kindness."

Lu Yingman smiled as he said to Mu Xi, "This matter still depends on whether Xi'er agrees. Just tell me the truth, are you willing to be the Crown Prince's consort? To become the Crown Prince's wife meant endless wealth and prosperity!

Mu Xi pretended to be obedient and meek in front of Feng Tian and Lu Yingman. With wide eyes, she innocently said, "I had previously heard that the crown prince liked my sister and wholeheartedly wanted her to become his consort! "Even if I don't know where she is now, I definitely won't fight over the position of the Crown Prince's consort with her. I also don't know where my elder sister is right now …" His voice was choked with sobs, and his eyes were filled with tears. Mu Xi's acting skills could be said to be superb.

Lu Yingman was momentarily at a loss for words. If she insisted on betrothing Mu Xi to the crown prince, wouldn't that be a bad reputation? And because of Qin Ying's identity, Feng Tian couldn't forcefully arrange this marriage. He smiled and said, "Since General Xi'er and I have no such intentions, then forget it. However, you must play chess with me today. Since you rejected my marriage, you wouldn't be unwilling to even play chess with me, right? "

Lu Yingman also said to Mu Xi, "Xi'er, why don't you accompany me for a stroll in this imperial garden? It seems to me that you're a very loving girl."

Qin Ying quickly said to Lu Yingman, "This is my first time in the Imperial Palace and I can't help but be a little disrespectful of the rules. In order not to disturb the Empress, it's better to have Xi'er stay by my side so that she won't be ridiculed by the Empress."

Feng Tian said with a straight face, "General, do you not trust my Queen? When the two of us play chess, Xi'er will inevitably get bored, so why not accompany the empress for a stroll around? "

Mu Xi also looked obedient. "Grandfather, don't worry. With the empress accompanying me, nothing will happen." He then blinked and said to Lu Yingman, "If something happens, the empress is going to hold it up!"

Lu Yingman was stunned for a moment before he laughed, "Child, you're really naughty." Qin Ying was a little relieved when he saw Mu Xi's calm appearance. As his granddaughter was even more eccentric than Qin Zhaoyang, he believed that Mu Xi was able to deal with the problems in the palace.

He nodded. "Then I'll be troubling Esteemed Empress." After exchanging glances with Feng Tian, Lu Yingman walked out of the imperial garden with Mu Xi by his hand. Mu Xi wanted to take the position of Crown Prince's consort, but she had to do it even if she didn't want to.

Mu Xi opened her beautiful eyes and asked Lu Yingman, "Empress, where are we going now?"

Lu Yingman smiled lightly and said, "I'll take you to see the foster daughter of the Emperor. She and you are around the same age. I think we'll be able to chat." Mu Xi smiled and nodded, not knowing what else was waiting for her.

On Fen Jin's side, a man with the same devilish handsome face raised his head and drank a cup of wine, and said with a smile to Fen Jin: "Look at you, what are you thinking about these days? You don't even look like a decisive wargod " In recent days, he had always been distracted in his work, and the image of the little girl kept appearing in his mind.

He said lightly, "Join my Lovesick Sect and know that I have a hard time thinking about you." That person spat out a mouthful of wine. His entire face was filled with disbelief.

He pointed at Fen Jin and said, "You, you, you have someone you like? "You're a fool, aren't you?" It wasn't because he was exaggerating, it was because this person hadn't had a single girl by his side for tens of thousands of years. Even he thought that Fen Jin was going to end up lonely.

Fen Jin looked at him in displeasure. He had originally wanted to tease someone who let him hurt so many women's hearts. It should be a retribution, right? However, looking at Fen Jin's expression, he was really moved. He also understood this person's personality. Even if he couldn't let go, it would be awkward.

He laughed heartily and said, "If you like her, then go ahead and chase her. Tell me which family's girl she is from and how she can make even the War God fall in love with her. Do you want me to help you chase after it? "

Fen Jin frowned, "She is mine. If you dare, don't blame me for not showing mercy. "

The person touched his nose and said, "That's not right. What kind of woman can resist your charm? How come you haven't caught her yet?"

Fen Jin said lightly: "Looking at the current situation, I can't give her a stable life, I'm also afraid that I will hurt her in the future." The man knew that he had remembered some bad memories.

He consoled her, "The girl you like is by no means just an embroidered pillow. Who knows, maybe she likes to live a life full of grandeur? You don't have to worry about hurting her. I think she can help you. If you like it, then go ahead. With your current state, you won't be able to do anything.
