An immortal couple?

Su Moyun was startled for a moment.

I'm afraid that this time, Seventh Prince will be disappointed.

Her mission was to return to the modern world as soon as possible, to return to the time she was born. That way, she could continue to hack away at the thorns and thistles.

But if that was the case, only Seventh Prince would be left. For some reason, a tinge of reluctance arose in her heart.

Perhaps he was too kind to her and had already treated her as a friend.

Su Moyun thought, then raised her head and looked at Tuoba Jing.

”Your Highness is right, but right now, we have yet to get married. Although the emperor bestowed marriage upon us, since we have yet to formally enter the marriage ceremony, we can't be considered husband and wife. So why would we need an immortal couple?”

Suppressing the worry in her eyes, Su Moyun hardened her heart and said: ”If Your Highness really wants others to be envious, we can talk about it after the official wedding ceremony. Moreover, Moyun is not out of the pavilion yet, she shouldn't have shown her face so casually.

Tuoba Jing gently frowned his slanted sword brows. Just now, he could feel that this little girl's eyes were slightly unsettled, as if he was thinking about something. Yet, she said those words again, making Zhen'er feel weird.

However, seeing that the little girl's interest in the matter had waned, he did not say anything else, and only said lightly: ”Second Miss is right, this king has neglected this point, this king will send Second Miss back, but …”

Pausing, Tuoba Jing turned his gaze to Su Moyun.

Su Moyun also looked at him, and only felt that his eyes were too deep and pitch-black, causing her to feel dizzy. She clenched her fists, and continued to stare at him.

”Second Miss, this king will probably not be able to make it back in a short while, so I hope that you can wait for me at home. When I return, I will definitely marry you.”

After saying those words, Tuoba Jing seemed to be a little embarrassed, his handsome face flushed red, and he turned around, bringing Su Moyun with him.

Actually, Su Moyun didn't need to say anything more. She was about to take her and walk out of the palace gate.

It was just that because tomorrow he was going to travel the river, he wanted to keep her and spend some time with her.

Even if they walked together silently on the road, it would be the best.

This time, Tuoba Jing felt that he was bewitched.

But when he thought back to how he discussed the marriage with the Royal Father in the pavilion, seeing that the Imperial Eldest Grandson came to his rescue, Tuoba Jing instinctively felt that something was amiss.

Su Moyun did not notice her emotions at the moment, as she continued to walk with her head lowered.

”Alright, here we are at the palace gate. This king does not intentionally bring along the Second Miss in a random walk. I just want to pass through a path that looks very winding, but has a very unique charm to it.”

After Tuoba Jing finished speaking, he smiled.

Just as Su Moyun wanted to reply, she was interrupted.

”Seventh Prince, the emperor is waiting for you inside the imperial study.” Eunuch Li walked over with a peaceful expression.

Hearing that, Tuoba Jing frowned, a look of displeasure flashed past his eyes: ”I understand, go back and report, this king will be here shortly.”

”Right.”

”I originally wanted to send Second Miss back to the manor, but …” Tuoba Jing was a little worried.

He could not let his Royal Father wait for him for too long, but he was unwilling to let Su Moyun go just like that.

She was just a woman. If no one took care of her, then something would have happened to her.

What's more …
