C285 edict (1/2)
”Don't worry, I will.” Nalan Ruo dismounted from the carriage as soon as she finished speaking. Mu Ru Yue looked at the man's back and felt that he was extremely mysterious. It was as if she didn't know why the beautiful prince was so adamant about her.
He also did not know what exactly did Nalan Ruo Ming want to protect in this clan that had caused him to be disheartened.
”Let's go back.” Mu Ru Yue instructed Yun'er, who was standing outside. The carriage slowly moved forward. Inside the car, Ling Xi couldn't help but ask, ”Royal Consort, Young Noble Nalan, he …?”
”Since he has made a decision, then respect shall be the case. Although he looked very sick, but in the end … Amongst the eight great clans, he was the Lord who could look down on everyone. If he didn't have the ability, then why would others respect him?
All that you and I have seen is just what we know. ”
”The princess consort is right.” Ling Xi respectfully said. They came to a deep understanding in their hearts.
After the carriage had sent Ling Xi back to the southern part of the city, Murong Yue and Yun'er returned to the Seventh Marquis' Mansion. After all, she had obtained what she needed. If she were to wander around outside, she might be discovered by someone.
If anyone found out anything, the Heaven's Incense in her hand would be her talisman of death.
Thus, Mu Ru Yue had never wanted to return to the Seventh Marquis' Mansion with such eagerness. The journey was peaceful. When Mu Ru Yue returned to the Seventh Marquis Estate, the butler was busy in the courtyard. His expression didn't look too good.
As Mu Ru Yue looked at it, she couldn't help but be surprised. ”Butler, what happened at the house?” Mu Ru Yue's voice wasn't loud. But the butler heard her and quickly turned around. ”Esteemed wangfei, you're back? Quick, change your clothes. ”
”Hmm?” Mu Ru Yue didn't understand.
”The imperial edict is coming.” The butler said seriously.
An imperial edict? Mu Ru Yue was a little stunned.
”I'm afraid it's just an imperial decree from the south. If you act like this, people will inevitably guess that you've gone out.” Since the prince is not here today, you are the only one who can receive the imperial edict. If you don't come back, I was just thinking if I should have the mansion's guards disguise as you. Since you're back, this old servant will be at ease. ” The butler quickly said.
”I know.” Mu Ru Yue nodded her head before heading back to the courtyard with Yun'er. He changed out of his men's clothing at the fastest speed possible. His long hair was tied back. He then hurriedly prepared to receive the imperial edict.
However, just as she was about to leave, she noticed the white peony on the table. Seeing this peony, Mu Ru Yue couldn't help but smile. ”Wait for my return.”
”Esteemed wangfei, is this servant coming with you?” Yun'er thought these words were directed at her and was a little surprised.
Mu Ru Yue felt a little embarrassed, but she still continued, ”This wangfei is a little hungry. Yun'er, you can stay here and prepare your meal.” After she finished speaking, she hurriedly left. Yun Er stared at Mu Ru Yue's back. Although she felt a little regretful that she couldn't accept the imperial edict, she could only do her own thing.
When Mu Ru Yue returned to the courtyard, she saw many horses waiting outside. A middle-aged man in armor walked into the Seventh Prince's mansion. He had a rough appearance, but there was a sense of righteousness between his brows.
When he saw Mu Ru Yue, he was a little curious, but he quickly greeted her, ”Royal Consort.”
”You are here to read the imperial edict, there is no need to do so.” Mu Ru Yue asked.
”This lowly general has been ordered to read the imperial edict, but this lowly general is also a subordinate of the prince. He should be respectful to the princess consort. This lowly general will now represent His Majesty. ” As the general spoke, he opened the scroll in his hand and said, ”The emperor decrees that the south is in turmoil today. The people's hearts are in turmoil and I feel heartbroken. With my body, I will come to the Moon Royal Family. After the Day of the Morning Flower, we will set out immediately and unerring. We are here. ”
With that, the burly man passed the imperial edict to Mu Ru Yue. ”Esteemed wangfei, the prince isn't here. Please accept the decree.”
”The Seventh Prince's Estate accepts the edict.” As Mu Ru Yue spoke, she took the imperial edict. Inwardly, she was filled with endless mockery. This imperial edict sounded good, but in reality, it was just sending Phoenix Seep to the most difficult place.
”Seventh wangfei, this general still has to go back to report. Farewell.” As the man spoke, he led the group of soldiers and left. It was the first time that Mu Ru Yue had seen such a decisive person.
”Butler, take this imperial edict for Feng Li.” Mu Ru Yue said with a slightly annoyed expression.
