C248 History of Ling Xi (1/2)
Mu Ru Yue left after saying that to Uncle Zhang. Uncle Zhang was a very knowledgeable person, he would definitely want to understand. The most important thing right now was to take care of Yun'er's injuries before making a trip to the Mu Yun Tower.
Although she didn't know if the owner of the Mu Yun Tower knew her, at the very least, her jade pendant could exchange for a lot of information in the Mu Yun Tower. Tian Xiang couldn't be wrong, she had better ask first. Otherwise, if she didn't have the money to buy it, then that would be the most embarrassing!
Ling Xi had always been guarding the entrance to this secret passageway, so when Murong Yue arrived, she immediately saw Ling Xi, who was sitting at the side.
”He … ”How about it?” Ling Xi said somewhat anxiously.
”Uncle already told me what he needed to say, so he should be able to rest peacefully now.” Mu Ru Yue asked.
”Many thanks to wangfei for saving me today.” As Ling Xi spoke, she knelt down towards Murong Yue. Mu Ru Yue hastily held him up. ”There's no need for this between us. Uncle Zhang is loyal to me, this is what I should do. ”
”It's not the same, please accept this bow.” As Ling Xi said this, she stubbornly knelt down. Murong Yue looked at the girl in front of her and didn't stop her. Then, she heard Ling Xi say unhurriedly, ”Royal Consort, Uncle Zhang and I … No, is Imperial Concubine interested in the matter between me and Grandfather? ”
Murong Yue was a bit surprised. One must know that when Uncle Zhang had confessed to her that day, he had mentioned with his own words that Ling Xi was his granddaughter. Available... However, the two of them did not appear to be very close. At the very least, when they were in front of others, Ling Xi would only address them as Uncle Zhang.
In addition, the relationship between these two people was far stranger than the so-called grandfather and grandson duo.
”Are you willing to say?” Mu Ru Yue hadn't originally wanted to investigate the secret between these two, but now … If Ling Xi wanted to say something, she naturally wouldn't shirk from it. After all, everyone wished to know who their subordinates were.
Ling Xi seemed to have made some sort of decision as she nodded at Mu Ru Yue. ”Yes, Royal Consort.”
Because of Ling Xi's decision, Murong Yue was brought to a very remote pavilion, which could be considered the most remote corner of the courtyard. The surroundings were crawling with mountain climbing tigers. Occasionally, a dragonfly would land on it, causing people to feel a bit chilly.
”Princess.” Ling Xi and Murong Yue sat in the pavilion, and after saying that, they became a little nervous.
”If you haven't made up your mind, you don't have to say it. After all … This is your freedom. ”Although I am curious as to exactly who you two are, it is not something that I must know.”
”No …” Princess, you have to listen to me. ” At this moment, Ling Xi had already made up her mind. She looked at Mu Ru Yue and took out a white jade box from her sleeve. On top of the box were flying dragons and phoenixes. Below the dragon and phoenix were countless birds.
It was easy to imagine how much effort and talent such a magnificent carving possessed when used on this box. The carving of the dragon and phoenix was extremely exquisite, as if they could be alive from the carving. This method was very rare in this world.
”This is?” Mu Ru Yue looked curiously at the box.
Ling Xi didn't say anything as she opened the box. What entered Mu Ru Yue's eyes made her a little stunned. She looked at Ling Xi in disbelief. The item inside was made of white jade, but the quality of the jade was much better than the box.
Under the sunlight, it was crystal clear, as though there was a jade quintessence circulating within it.
”This is the Imperial Jade Seal.” Ling Xi said.
Mm, I know it's the Imperial Jade Seal. Mu Ru Yue didn't know what expression to put on at this moment. Suddenly, someone took out the Imperial Jade Seal and placed it in front of her. This kind of reaction really made her feel at a loss.
Ling Xi could see the shock in Murong Yue's eyes, so she didn't care and continued, ”This isn't the Imperial Jade Seal of the Moon Dynasty.”
What Ling Xi had said instead made Murong Yue heave a sigh of relief. As long as this girl hadn't stolen the Emperor's Imperial Jade Seal, then everything would be fine. But... Not from the Moon Dynasty?
”This is?”
