C482 Change of appearance (1/2)
When Mu Ru Yue said that, the smile on Jun Ru's face intensified. ”That's only natural.” After saying that, he looked at Feng Qing and bowed respectfully: ”Your Highness, for today's matter, please do not … He was making decisions for the entire Peony City.
I hope that you, your highness, can bring clarity to Peony City. ”
Jun Ruo's attitude was solemn as he pleaded with Feng Qing. Feng Qing sized up Jun Ruo for a long while before saying coldly, ”Jun Ruo, you and I have known each other for three years.”
”It's an honor for Jun Ruo.” Jun Ru said respectfully. He didn't need to be respectful to Mu Ru Yue, as he could even treat her as a friend. That was because Mu Ru Yue had never shown her any hostility from the start. It was also more approachable.
However, when facing Feng Qing, even though Feng Qing treated him as a friend, he did not dare to do so.
Because this person... He was the true pride of the heavens. In his words, there was an essential distance between him and everyone else. It was as if nothing was important in Feng Qing's eyes. Thus, at the critical moment, the only thing he could give Feng Qing was respect.
”I don't care about your plan, nor do I care if you are using me. So, you don't need to say anything grandiose.” Feng Qing continued.
When Jun Ruo heard this, he trembled in fear. ”I have never meant to deceive anyone.”
Feng Qing ignored him and continued, ”You want me to take charge of Peony City? I agree. However, all of this is based on her safety. If something were to happen to her in your plan.
I will not care about Peony City. ”
Feng Qing's words caused a wave of lingering fear in Jun Ruo's heart. Feng Qing didn't try to hide the fact that he cared about Mu Ru Yue. This was simply threatening him.
Mu Ru Yue didn't expect Feng Qing to be moved by his words, but she felt more pressured.
”Your Highness, I believe that Young Master Jun Ru won't do something that goes back on your word.” Mu Ru Yue opened his mouth. When Feng Qing heard this, his gaze fell on Mu Ru Yue's body. After a long while, he said, ”This palace … ”He doesn't trust anyone.”
Mu Ru Yue showed an expression of helplessness when she heard that.
However, Jun Ruo promised her, ”Your Highness, even if I die, I will absolutely not let anything happen to the wangfei, so … After that, I hope that Your Highness will take care of everything in Peony City. ”
Jun Ru's attitude was sincere and his eyes were full of seriousness.
Feng Qing looked at him and finally nodded, ”Alright.”
Feng Qing's promise finally caused Jun Ruo to breathe a sigh of relief, and he walked out of the pavilion and into a corner. A short while later, he brought over a person wearing a bamboo hat. From his figure, it could be seen that he was a woman.
After the two of them walked in, Jun Ru took off the woman's bamboo hat, revealing a gentle and lovable face. She was a little nervous.
”Your Highness …” This is the person I trust the most. Even though she looks like this now, no one will be able to tell who he is going to pretend to. ” Jun Ru introduced.
”Alright.” Mu Ru Yue nodded.
”Bao`er, this is the Seventh Princess.” Jun Ru said to the woman. The girl walked in front of Mu Ru Yue and looked at her timidly. ”Princess, your servant has offended you.”
Bao`er touched Mu Ru Yue's face as she said that. Mu Ru Yue was startled by this girl. Why did she start rubbing her face?
Before Mu Ru Yue could push Bao Er away, Bao Er had already moved her hand away. The girl then untied her bundle and looked for something within it. She then took out the copper mirror and wiped her face with it.
In just a short moment, the bronze mirror descended and a face that was seventy percent similar to Mu Ru Yue's was revealed.
Mu Ru Yue was really shocked.
