C113 His protection (2/2)
However, this was not very realistic. After all, she had not been able to see him for so long. The only reason Feng Qing hadn't found out who she was was was because he hadn't investigated her or even asked the people around him.
Mu Ru Yue's guess was not wrong. Feng Qing didn't want to investigate because in his heart, Mu Ru Yue and him should have just met. If it wasn't for that, he wouldn't have held this Consort Selection Ceremony.
”Why doesn't Miss say anything?” Feng Qing's eyes revealed a trace of nervousness. Mu Ru Yue couldn't help feeling embarrassed. ”He should be there. But perhaps, when the time comes, Your Highness will wish that I hadn't appeared.”
Just like I am now. Mu Ru Yue thought.
”I'll wait for you.” After Feng Qing received a satisfactory answer,he only said this one sentence. Then, she stood up and nodded to his Uncle Zhang before leaving. After he left, he looked at Mu Ru Yue and said, ”That day … Has the girl ever been in danger? ”
That day? Mu Ru Yue recalled the incident at the Yellow Forest Temple. So he smiled and said, ”I just happened to be lucky enough to get away from the Seventh Prince when he went on his way to exterminate the bandits. After that, he didn't want to cause any trouble, so he secretly ran away. Your Highness, don't worry, I'm fine. ”
Hearing these words, Feng Qing's heart dimmed. If it wasn't for the fact that he had no military power, and had never paid attention to those people, perhaps he was the one who had saved her that day. Furthermore, she didn't need to flee. If they were to be close to him, it would only make them more intimate, right?
For the first time, Feng Qing had a glimmer of desire for power. If possible, he wanted to at least protect the people he wanted to protect. He no longer let her roam the world.
At this moment, Mu Ru Yue still didn't know that she had been brainwashed by Feng Qing into becoming a pitiful young girl. She was homeless and drifting in the martial arts world. If he knew, he would definitely regret hiding it from Feng Qing. After all, deceiving a simple-minded young master was not a good feeling.
”I still have some matters to attend to, so I will take my leave. A'Yue … If you wish to meet me, the crown prince's mansion outside the palace will open the door for you. ” With that, the man left. After they left, Mu Ru Yue heaved a sigh of relief.
His nemesis had finally left! Every time she met Feng Qing, Mu Ru Yue's heart was filled with guilt. After all, this master had been completely deceived by her. Based on Feng Qing's current attitude towards her, Mu Ru Yue could already foresee how terrible it would be when her identity was exposed.
She was afraid that Feng Qing might even kill her.
On the other side, Mu Ru Yue was feeling extremely depressed. Uncle Zhang looked at Mu Ru Yue with a complicated expression and said, ”I didn't expect that the wangfei would know the crown prince as well.”
”It's just fate. Due to some reasons, I do not wish for the crown prince to know who I am. Therefore, I have been hiding it from you all along. As for the things that are happening here today, Uncle Zhang, please keep it a secret. ” Mu Ru Yue looked at Uncle Zhang and said respectfully.
Hearing that, Uncle Zhang nodded his head with a smile, ”I, as an old man, will not interfere in the matters of the young lady. However, the young lady doesn't need to be too preoccupied with everything.” Sometimes the girl misses the best. ”
At this moment, Uncle Zhang didn't address Mu Ru Yue as Royal Consort, but instead called her 'Miss'.
Mu Ru Yue didn't care and replied, ”If I hadn't been distracted, I wouldn't have ended up like this. There was a conflict between His Highness and I, so we hid our identities the first time we met. We just hoped that we would be safer. Unexpectedly, up until today. Now, I only hope that he knows who I am later. It's best if he finds out after I finish dealing with him. ”
Mu Ru Yue sighed. When Uncle Zhang heard this, he suddenly sympathized with the Crown Prince. They all said that the Crown Prince was high and mighty, but had been toyed with by the Seventh Princess. Judging from his attitude, he clearly had deep feelings for her.
