Chapter 412 - He Yuxiu Fell into the Water in the Imperial Garden (2/2)

Looking at her peevishly glaring expression, Feng Yuran chuckled and felt his heart melted. Then, he answered with a doting look, “Okay. From now on, I will drive away the bad romances one by one myself, okay?”

As for those women, he felt disgusted. They made grand gestures and showed off ostentatiously, even deliberately played some tricks to attract his attention.

“That’s better.” Mo Xuetong pouted.

With the mouth upward, Feng Yuran gave a fond kiss on her black hair.

After they had made an agreeable plan, Feng Yuran asked servants to freshen Mo Xuetong, and then took her to the banquet. When they had just come out of the Anhe Palace, a sweet voice rang, “cousin, Xuetong, where have you been? I am looking for you for a long time.”

The saccharine voice made Mo Xuetong quiver. How hard did He Yuxiu squeeze her throat that she could make that voice?

Not far from the road ahead, a beautiful lady stood beside the water, her skin as white as snow in that gorgeous palace dress. Her black hair was braided up with some tear-shaped golden hairpins stuck in it. The hairpins would gleam dazzlingly by any slight move. What a compellingly luxurious look! With a careless glance, He Yuxiu did look like a lady from a grand family.

Her slim waist swung lightly and put on different flirtatious airs. But somewhat, she also looked like a prost.i.tute. Had He Yuxiu seen it much outside the palace? Or was there any problems with He family’s cultivation nanny? He Yuxiu displayed herself like a prost.i.tute.

How did He family raise their daughters?

“Tong’er, you go to ladies’ seats, and I will go where His Majesty is.” Feng Yuran put down the hand holding Mo Xuetong, and said to her with a smile, giving no response to He Yuxiu.

The banquet was divided into two sides of seats between gentlemen and ladies. The ladies led by Empress took seats in the inner room, while the ministers and the young gentlemen were arranged outside.

He Yuxiu seemed not be affected by Feng Yuran’s cold shoulders, and walked in front of him to block the way. She turned around to show the jewels on her, and said proudly, “Cousin, do you know what I’ve seen. I’ve seen the young aunt, Her Highness, Consort Zhao. She also granted me this dress and the ornaments. Are they beautiful?”

She totally disregarded Mo Xuetong.

Now, with the Consort Zhao’s support, He Yuxiu was not afraid of Mo Xuetong at all . Thinking that Consort Zhao had promised to let her marry into the manor as the second consort, and to removed Mo Xuetong step by step, He Yuxiu could not conceal the exultation in her heart and behaved rather arrogantly . She dared to pester Feng Yuran who always took no notice of her and kept speaking to him, totally paying no attention to Mo Xuetong, her cousin’s consort.

“It looks good!” Feng Yuran showed a lazy smile on his handsome face and said gently.

The smile made He Yuxiu stunned, and she stood there still to look blankly at Feng Yuran coming to her slowly. She felt her heart was about to jump out of her mouth. She thought Consort Zhao was right, as Consort Zhao had said, “Feng Yuran will love you, as long as you dress yourself up beautifully.”

See, her cousin, who had always been cold to her, smiled to her now…

Looking at He Yuxiu’s infatuated look, Mo Xuetong let out a sigh inwardly and stepped back. She did not want to get into trouble when the trouble would be stirred up later. Feng Yuran was King Xuan with unbearable insolence, while Mo Xuetong was just an oppressed and cowardly King Xuan’s consort. Therefore, they should play their proper roles in the palace.

One should keep a high profile, as high as possible to let everyone know!

The other should keep a low profile, as low as possible not to let everyone know!

Mo Xuetong could only sigh that people were different.

“I’ll dress you up more beautifully. Do you want it?” Feng Yuran’s enchanting smile, matching with his gentle voice, hoodwinked He Yuxiu all right. She did not know what to do but just kept nodding her head. It was the first time for her to be noticed by her unparalleled handsome cousin. Her heart pounded inside her chest, completely unaware of what she was doing.

“Remove this, okay?”

“Okay!”

“This one doesn’t look good. Throw it?”

“Okay!”

“And your bun isn’t pretty . I tie it for you again, okay?”

“I listen to my cousin!”

Her headwear was taken off piece by piece and thrown aside. At the end, even her gorgeous buns were randomly messed up, leaving disheveled hair. Now He Yuxiu’s grand dress up was utterly destroyed, and she looked like a fool, even her eyes became stupid, and were fixed on Feng Yuran, smiling.

Dared to look at him with such obsessive eyes.

A flicker of disgust flashed in Feng Yuran’s eyes, and he turned his head and gave a fierce kick to the foolish He Yuxiu. With a splash, a woman screamed, and then came the guard shout, “Come here. Someone is crazy and drown herself in the river. Come here!”

The guard’s voice soared to the sky and shocked all the people who had heard it. Many people ran all the way to the bank of the river. And Feng Yuran walked to a side road calmly while Mo Xuetong left the scene with the protection of Mo Ye.
