Chapter 606 - The Plan, Feng Yurans Means (1/2)
While it was chaotic outside, the main courtyard of King Xuan’s Manor was very quiet. The tired and indolent King Xuan was accompanying his “sick” wife, so he had no idea what had happened outside. He handed it all over to his butler. In his own words, “It’s a complicated situation now. It could involve me even if I don’t go out. I’d better rest and claim to be sick in room.”
Mo Xuetong who was sitting by the window picked up the pattern beside her and shone it against the sunlight. Then she narrowed her eyes and glanced sideways at his handsome and charming face before asking suspiciously, “Does this have anything to do with you?”
She said it without feeling guilty!
“How could I have anything to do with that? Third Brother wanted to marry the beauty, and the Southern Barbarian Lands has their own plans. I don’t even know Crown Prince Xieyue’s meanings. How could I have plotted against her?” Feng Yuran answered rather righteously, but his bright eyes showed that he was in a good mood.
Especially when he winked at Mo Xuetong charmingly, there was nothing serious in his manners.
It was hard to convince anyone that it had nothing to do with him!
Of course, Mo Xuetong didn’t believe it!
“Why was it so coincidental that Princess Caifeng’s face was hurt? She was on the main road of the capital, and there are many people coming and going. That part of the road is the most heavily guarded. Even if there was something on the ground, it would have been cleaned up. How could it be so coincidental that Princess Caifeng’s face was scratched by something?”
Mo Xuetong teased as a hint of beautiful ripples in her watery eyes. Tiny spots of light fell in her eyes from outside the window, just like myriads of tiny diamonds and plentiful water. Feng Yuran could not help but feel gentle in his heart. He reached out to hold her hand that was holding the embroidery and suddenly, he laughed out loud in a good mood.
“Tong’er, perhaps because Princess Caifeng is a bad person, she is so unlucky. She not only lives in King Xuan’s Manor, but also dares to try to get you into trouble.”
A hint of viciousness appeared in the pure smile in his eyes. If not for her ident.i.ty, the hurt would not be as simple as disfigurement. Since Princess Caifeng wanted to deal with Tong’er, he made her tired out by too much running around and unable to see people. She would not dare to do anything to Tong’er. The situation now was very good.
Princess Caifeng didn’t want to marry Feng Yulei, but Feng Yulei wanted to marry her. In addition, Crown Prince Xieyue had a strange mind. The twists and turns in it were definitely more than it was on the surface. Feng Yuran just made a crack in those people’s contradictions. What would happen next was up to them.
Right now, everyone was busy enough with their own affairs. He and Mo Xuetong could live their own life and watch them fighting fiercely.
“She wanted to get me into trouble?” Mo Xuetong asked gently. Even though she knew that it was not easy to deal with Princess Caifeng, she did not expect that she would act so quickly. She had already started thinking about fighting against Mo Xuetong as soon as she arrived in the capital. “Did she pester you?” she asked.
According to the time, she was supposed to have taken a fancy to Feng Yuran the moment she entered the capital.
“How could it be possible? I’ve always been serious to her and ignored her. I didn’t even talk to her alone. How could she have anything to do with me?” Feng Yuran stated calmly.
“…” Mo Xuetong felt speechless for a moment.
It would be strange if it had nothing to do with him. Fortunately, Mo Xuetong had thought about it previously. With Feng Yuran’s enchanting and handsome appearance, it was normal for Princess Caifeng to fall in love with him. However, Hu Qianyue who came with Princess Caifeng had been acting weirdly; she came to ask about Mo Xuetong, and then stir up trouble. She was a difficult person to deal with.
“Who does Hu Qianyue work for? What does she want to do?” Mo Xuetong frowned. Since Feng Yuran was holding her hand, she put down the embroidery in her hand and leaned back against him.
Hu Qianyue was not a simple person!
“She is the cousin of the Third Prince of the Southern Barbarian Lands. Seeing that she has caused so much trouble, it seems that she wants to spoil the marriage between the Southern Barbarian Lands and the Qin Kingdom. Since Princess Caifeng is close to Crown Prince Xieyue, she is naturally on his side. If she can marry into the Qin Kingdom, she will be of great help to Crown Prince Xieyue. Therefore, the Third Prince of the Southern Barbarian Lands is more willing to turn this marriage into a joke or make some trouble by taking advantage of the marriage.”
What happened in the front yard had already been reported to the two masters. Hu Qianyue’s behavior seemed chaotic, but in fact, she had other ulterior motives. Feng Yuran had sent someone to investigate the people who came to the Qin Kingdom and got detailed information. Therefore, he had already a.n.a.lyzed the purpose of Hu Qianyue’s visit this time. The Third Prince of the Southern Barbarian Lands was really a man to be reckoned with.
“Don’t worry, Tong’er. They don’t have time to care about us now. It just so happens that we can deal with our own affairs.” Feng Yuran laughed and put his arm around Mo Xuetong’s slender waist.
“Caifeng has been wanting to hurt you, and Hu Qianyue added fuel to the fire. If Caifeng had not been disfigured, she would have harm you with the help of Hu Qianyue. If she killed you because of this and Hu Qianyue told me the truth of the matter, I would not tolerate Caifeng. With my arrogant and domineering character outside, I may kill her. The marriage between the Southern Barbarian Lands and the Qin Kingdom would be destroyed, and Crown Prince Xieyue would be a.s.sa.s.sinated by me. This is the plan of the Third Prince of the Southern Barbarian Lands.”
