C458 Letter from Beijing (2/2)

What was called a life or death situation?

”This letter... Is that true? ” Mu Ru Yue suppressed her anger and worry as she turned around to look at Feng Qing. What she was asking was not the whereabouts of the phoenix seep, but what was written afterwards. Were those rumors true?

”What if it is?” Feng Qing asked.

Feng Qing's question made Mu Ru Yue smile, but she didn't conceal the killing intent in her eyes. ”If that's the case, then my friendship with Your Highness ends here. From now on, you and I are enemies. ”

Although Mu Ru Yue's words were based on an assumption, they still made Feng Qing's heart shudder when he heard what Feng Qing had said. He couldn't help but mock himself in his heart. Look? This was the person he liked.

No matter how much he loved her, no matter how devout he was in his adoration, in the end, he would only gain his suspicions. Furthermore, he would even gain her love for someone else.

He admitted that he would never lose to anyone, because from the moment he was born, he was the winner. Ever since he was young, there was nothing he couldn't obtain that he desired. There was nothing he couldn't do when he was an adult. However, the woman in front of him was the only one who tumbled.

”I am still disdainful of doing all of this. This matter was merely deliberately done by someone. As for the phoenix seep, you can be at ease. If they couldn't find him, then it meant that he was still alive. In a short while, you should receive a letter from the Duke Palace informing them that you are safe and sound. ”

Feng Qing's voice was very faint, even somewhat cold.

Mu Ru Yue was stunned when she heard that. She knew that she had gone overboard. Looking at Feng Qing, Mu Ru Yue bowed to him. ”Many thanks to Your Highness for telling me.”

”I just do not wish to be misunderstood.” Feng Qing said indifferently.

”Excuse me, is the Seventh Princess present?” Just when the two of them were in an awkward situation, they heard the respectful voice of a woman coming from outside.

”I am.” Mu Ru Yue replied. When he turned around, he saw a girl wearing a green robe standing at the door. She had an exquisite and charming appearance, and her eyes seemed to know how to communicate with others. She looked at Mu Ru Yue and smiled decently. ”This servant is here to invite Seventh Princess to her residence.

The courtyard has already been tidied up for you. This servant was worried that you might not know where to go, so I've come to invite you over. ”

”Thank you.” Mu Ru Yue heaved a sigh of relief inwardly. This girl had come at the perfect time. Otherwise, she really wouldn't know how to face Feng Qing at this time. Thinking this way, Mu Ru Yue turned to Feng Qing and said, ”Your Highness, I have been feeling tired these past few days. I will be taking my leave now.”

”Princess, take care.” Feng Qing said. He didn't know what was in the phoenix eyes.

After bidding farewell to Feng Qing, Mu Ru Yue left the main hall.

After they left, Tao Er couldn't help but ask: ”Your Highness, why do you need to explain to this woman!?” What kind of status does she have? How dare she suspect you? This … You still want to be nice to her? ” Tao Er said unwillingly.

Feng Qingqing was expressionless as he tore the letter in his hand. Looking at Tao Er, he said indifferently: ”You don't need to say anything about my matters. ”Also …” Feng Qing's voice was a little hoarse, and he couldn't help but smile inside.

How ridiculous.

He had planned to leave Feng Chen in the south, but who would have thought that before he even made a move, Feng Zi would have a problem with him. He even borrowed the opportunity to assassinate him and leave. If he hadn't left and had truly died, then his subordinates would have long reported to him.

This was also the reason why he was sure that Feng Qing was still alive.

The person he sent... It was the royal family's secret guard. The people that royal father gave to him, these people were more reliable than anyone else.

They didn't respond. They were probably on their way to catch up with him.

While she was thinking, Feng Qing said coldly, ”You sure are lucky.” With that, he got up and walked out. Tao Er blankly stared at the back of her prince, her mind filled with those words. Your Highness... Was he really going to let the Seventh Prince die?

If the Seventh Prince was truly dead, then wouldn't the Seventh Princess be married into His Highness's family?

Thinking of this possibility, Tao Er's expression changed greatly.

It was one thing to marry a woman with a dead husband, but this woman was once his brother's wangfei. If such a thing really happened, wouldn't His Highness be ridiculed by the world? Damn it! Why did this bitch want to live?

If only she was the one who had died.
