Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 372

~ THE EMPEROR’S FAMILY LAW ~ 

There was a gentle smile on Jin Wang’s face, which was not the slightest bit different than usual. “Imperial Father asked us, the princes, to go over. Is there something important?” As he spoke, he handed over a box.

Eunuch Li, who had come to deliver the imperial edict, took it carefully and answered softly, “It seems that the Emperor has found out who framed His Royal Highness Yue Wang.”

The smile on Jin Wang’s face froze, and his heart shuddered uncontrollably. The corner of his lips moved involuntarily. “That’s great.”

At this time, within the Emperor’s tent, the Grand Princess Yi De was also present. Almost all of the princes came to the tent and kneeled down to pay their respects.

The Emperor didn’t call them out. He only looked at them coldly for a moment before he spoke to Grand Princess Yi De in a soft voice.

The princes did not dare to make a sound and remained kneeling on the ground. After nearly an hour, the Emperor turned his head and said straightforwardly, “Fourth Child has been frame, and I have already found out who the mastermind is.”

These words caused the faces of the princes to change.

The First Prince, Ling Wang, was the first to speak, “Imperial Father, you have always taught us to be brothers and be courteous. Fourth Imperial Brother just returned from Western Guangdong, and someone had set him up. These person is really vicious. Please, Imperial Father must be strictly investigated and punish them. Give justice to Fourth Imperial Brother.”

Yu Wang nodded in agreement, “That’s right. Eldest Imperial Brother’s words are reasonable. If we don’t find evidence this time, they might have succeeded in the plot. When that time comes, Fourth Imperial Brother will bear the responsibility of abusing and killing the young masters of aristocratic families. In addition, he will certainly be attacked by those ministers in the Imperial Court. When the time comes, the Emperor has the intention to be merciful and may not be able to keep his face, so Fourth Imperial Brother will suffered greatly. Third Imperial Brother, tell us how should we punish the mastermind?”

Jin Wang felt his heart tremble as he looked up at the Emperor’s face. He felt that the expression was as deep as the sea, without a hint of anger or joy. “I agree with what Eldest Imperial Brother and Second Imperial Brother said. We should investigate this matter thoroughly.”

The Emperor was furious. “The matter has been investigated. I know clearly who is the mastermind behind this. I am very disappointed about this. As a member of the royal family, I don’t have the ability to tolerate people who frame others. This peson will not become a great man.”

Jin Wang clenched his fists tightly, and his face turned pale. Could it be that Imperial Father had found out that he was the one who framed Yue Wang? There was also the evaluation of him not being able to become a great man. If this phrase fixed on him, he might not be able to get the throne anymore.…

The Emperor looked at their expressions seriously. After a long while, he called the imperial guards in front of the door and said, “Today, I am not the Emperor, but the patriarch of a family. If the sons is useless, father should teach them to go on the the right path. Thus, I decided to use family law.”

Jin Wang raised his head abruptly and looked at the icy-cold Emperor. His eyes were trembling, and there was a hint of fear in them. He was too impatient. If he had been remained calm, he would not have fallen into such a passive state today.

The Emperor had originally thought that since he had come to this point, Jin Wang might directly admit his mistake. However, he didn’t expect the other party to pretend as if nothing had happened, as if the matter had nothing to do with him from beginning to end. “Men, use the family law!”

“Yes, Your Majesty!” The guards who had entered the tent immediately went forward to detain the four princes, then took off their coats and picked up their sticks, ready for battle.

The eyes of the Grand Princess Yi De shifted to Yue Wang’s body. The wound on his back had already formed a scab, but it was not yet completely healed. This time...

“Father....”

The Emperor closed his eyes, and the aura around him was extremely stagnant. His voice was filled with rage as he said, “Use the family law!”

With that, the imperial guards whipped the four princes viciously on their backs, causing streaks of blood to appear.

The Emperor stood in front of the princes, his gaze sweeping over their faces one by one. The First Prince looked unsatisfied and felt that his innocence had been implicated. The Second Prince grimaced and shouted out from time to time in pain. The Third Prince’s expression was stoic, his face pale, and his eyes slightly swayed. Only the Fourth Prince’s expression was cold, and there was no sign of emotion in it as if the thorny stick had not hit him.

The Emperor’s fingers trembled. This child...

After the imperial guards had lashed out thirty times, the Emperor waved them to stop. “Do you know that you are wrong?”

The First Prince could not hold on any longer. Hearing the question, he nodded with much difficulty, “Father, this son knows his wrongs, and I should not have angered you.”

The Emperor looked at the silent Third Prince, Jin Wang. “Third Son, did you realize your mistake?”

Jin Wang raised his head and looked at the Emperor’s stern expression. A trace of guilt flashed across his eyes as he said, “Imperial Father, please take care of your health. Do not let your children’s mistakes anger you.” Unexpectedly, he still refused to tell the truth. The Emperor closed his eyes, and disappointment flashed across his heart, “You are my sons. You can fight for the throne, but you must abide by your bottom line and not hurt each other’s lives. I know this frame will not be the first or the last time, but I want to tell all of you, although I am old, I am still the Emperor of Dali Dynasty, and I still manage the great mountains and rivers. If I find out who among you are planning to plot against your brother’s life, I don’t mind imprisoning him in advance for the privilege!”

“Yes, this sons will remember this.”

“Put on your clothes and get down. I’ve had a headache these few days, so all of the imperial physicians are helping me study the prescription. Don’t let anyone disturb me, do you understand?”

“Yes, this sons understands.”

“Go down.”

Yue Wang retrieved the clothes at the side, donned them on, and bowed before walking out. Before he could leave the tent entrance, the clothes on his back were already drenched in blood, but he seemed to feel no any pain, his body did not feel any stagnation, as though a cold light had just left its sheath, and he was unwilling to bend in the slightest.

Looking at the blood on his back, the Emperor couldn’t help but set his gaze on the blood-stained thorns on the ground. He squatted down and picked them up, “Imperial Elder Sister, did I do wrong?” As he said this, he clenched the thorn stick tightly, and the thorn on the stick immediately pierced his palm.

The Grand Princess Yi De hurriedly stood up. She walked to the side of the Emperor and forcefully opened his hand, taking out some medicinal powder from the table, and carefully helped him bandage his wounds: “Imperial Brother, why do you have to go through so much trouble? It may be painful to hit them in your heart, but it’s not wrong to teach your sons a lesson as a father. What’s wrong with that?”

“Imperial Elder Sister, you know I’m not talking about this. I’m talking about Junyue … After all these years, I shouldn’t have exiled him to Western Guangdong. He had no mother since he was a child, and his father was also a vain. At the border of Western Guangdong, he must have had a hard time, or else he wouldn’t have developed such a cold personality.”

“Since you feel that what you did before was wrong, you should start to improve it bit by bit. Just like you said just now, you may be the Emperor, but you’re also their father. Which son would want to die because of their father?”

The Emperor thought about Yue WAng’s cold expression and felt a little awkward: “Imperial Elder Sister, if I give in suddenly, but Junyue that brat doesn’t care about me? As the ruler, where should I put my face?”

~ THE MASTERMIND BEHIND THE SCENES ~ 

The Emperor thought it over carefully for a moment, and determination flashed in his eyes, “That’s right. We have to take advantage of the situation that has just begun to develop and suppress this unhealthy wind in time. My sons are few in number, so they shouldn’t kill each other anymore.”

After making his decision, the Emperor seemed to have calmed down a little. After finishing his meal, he went straight back to his tent.

Looking at the tent door, the Grand Princess Yi De couldn’t help but sneer.

Qu Mama brought over a cup of tea and respectfully placed it at the side of the Grand Princess Yi De. “Your Highness, I’m afraid this matter might involve His Royal Highness Jin Wang.”

“I had originally thought that he would be deep in thought, but I didn’t expect that he could not hold his breath and impatient. This is good as well. Since Junyue doesn’t intend to leave, he naturally had to establish his might and let his officials know of his existence. The eight years of hibernation in Western Guangdong, it doesn’t mean that these people could bully him.”

“Your Highness, this time, Yue Wang seems to have made a move for the sake of that Miss Mu....”

“I know that he has no relationship with the Meng family, but why would he make things difficult for Meng Handong for no reason at all?” The Grand Princess Yi De sighed slightly. “I don’t know if it’s a blessing or a curse for these two people to be together. What do you think of Mu Yunyao’s temperament?”

“This servant has followed by the side of the Grand Princess for many years, so this servant still has a good eye for people. From this servant’s perspective, that Miss Mu is a rare talent. She has a fine appearance, a good disposition, and her personality is also not bad. Her intelligence and decisiveness are not to be underestimated.”

The Grand Princess Yi De said with a smile, “You are right. I’m not afraid of her causing trouble, but I’m only afraid that she would be unclear about what’s happening. Now that Junyue has fallen deeply in love with her, I don’t want to be that evil person who broke up the lovers. It’s naturally the best if she can judging the situation and understanding the situation, or else, even if Junyue will hate me, I won’t allow her to enter Yue’s Palace either.”

“Your Highness is quite strict. Your Highness’s tongue is stern, but your heart is softest, and you very doted on His Royal Highness Yue Wang. I am afraid as long as His Royal Highness Yue Wang comes over and requests for help, you will be unable to stop yourself from agreeing to anything.” Qu Mama had served the Grand Princess Yi De for many years. Although the two of them were master and servant, their relationship could still be considered deep. Thus, they spoke was no need to be too cautious.

The Grand Princess Yi De’s smile became even wider. He couldn’t help but raise her hand and move the jade bracelet on her wrist. “I don’t know why, but even if I knew that Mu Yunyao had caused trouble for Junyue, I still couldn’t hate her.”

“According to this servant, this might be fate. That Miss Mu was fortunate enough to catch Your Highness’s attention.”

“Get someone to take care of it. This two days of Autumn Hunt is not going well, so don’t let anything happen in the next few days.”

“Yes.”

Mu Yunyao sat in the tent and heard Yu Wang complain to Yue Wang, “Fourth Imperial Brother, you’re too reckless. You have plenty of opportunities to take care of that Meng Handong. Why do you need to be so obvious? Although it could be said that you have been cleared of suspicion now. But in the end, you would end up have a reputation of being cold-blooded, ruthless, and even brutal.”

“Let Second Imperial Brother worried about this matter.”

“Why are you trying to make things difficult for Meng Handong? What has he done to offend you?”

Mu Yunyao stood up and spoke with an apologetic tone, “Reporting to His Royal Highness, Meng Handong originally wanted to kill me. Fortunately, His Royal Highness Yue Wang saved me, and I was lucky enough to escape this calamity.”

Yu Wang was startled, but he immediately changed his previous attitude, “So that’s how it is. At the entrance of the Palace before, he already killed the horse that pulled your carriage, and he almost caused you to lose face. Today, Fourth Imperial Brother just wants to avenge you. Good, well done! How can someone like Meng Handong act so arrogantly in front of Fourth Imperial Brother? He deserve it!”

So it was fury for a beauty. He really didn’t expect that his fourth brother would actually turn into this kind of temperament when he met a girl he liked.

Yu Wang’s face darkened. “Even though I taught him a lesson, I didn’t take his life.”

“His Royal Highness didn’t attack, but we can’t prevent others from doing so. This matter must be investigated thoroughly, and we must see which side’s method it is.”

Yu Wang’s smile faded as he slightly turned his head to look at Mu Yunyao. Seeing her calm expression and her unhurried manner, his impression of her slightly improved. “Miss Mu, do you have any thoughts about his matter?”

“His Royalhighness Yu Wang is joking. I’m just making my own speculations. I don’t dare to speak carelessly of the royal family.”

Yu Wang paused and then laughed: Since you have already spoken the word royal family, so what’s the point of not being afraid to say?

“I will get someone to investigate this matter. If they find any clues, I will let them inform you in time.”

Yue Wang nodded his head: “Thank you, Second Imperial Brother. It’s getting late, so I will first send Yunyao back to her tent first.”

A glint of mischievousness flashed across Yu Wang’s eyes. “Alright, I’ll go and make the arrangements. Fourth Brother, you can feel at ease to send her off.” Fourth Imperial Brother is not an emotional person, but when the emotion is immersed deeply in him, he can’t get rid of it.

After Meng Handong’s accident, the entire camp was filled with discussion. Originally, they thought that Mu Yunyao and Yue Wang would suffer misfortune. But they didn’t expect that the two of them safely leave the Emperor’s tent.

Along the way, they constantly met people who came to pay their respects with a faint hint of curiosity in their eyes. Mu Yunyao quietly followed by Yue Wang’s side, ignoring the various gazes from the surroundings.

When they arrived at the entrance of the tent, Mu Yunyao raised her head. “Fourth Master, be careful. I feel like this matter is far from over.”

Yue Wang nodded: “I understand.”

Returning to the tent, Mu Yunyao changed out of her clothes and thought about what happened today. Not long after, Jin Lan came back with hot water and gave Mu Yunyao a small note, “Miss, it was secretly sent by Liu Liang.”

Mu Yunyao opened the slip of paper. When she finished reading the contents of the paper, her expression became even colder, “It really is him!”

Jin Wang!

“Miss, did Liu Liang has discovered the mastermind behind the scenes who framed His Royal Highness Yue Wang?”

Mu Yunyao destroyed the slip of paper and slightly nodded her head, “At that time, when I left with Yue Wang, although Meng Handong’s hand and shoulder were injured, he was fine. He still knew how to feign unconsciousness in order to avoid being investigated. After that, he died directly. Judging from the state of his wounds, it was impossible to tell the difference between the front and the back... Now that I think about it, there are a lot of things that are worth thinking about it.” It could be said that Meng Handong had brazenly shot arrows at her, which was instigated by Jin Wang. Once she and Yue WAnghad left, Jin Wang’s people would kill him and arrange a good show for them.

“Miss, do you want this servant to inform His Royal Highness Yue Wang?”

“There’s no need. If Liu Liang can find out the truth, Yue Wang must already know about it. Not to mention the Emperor and Grand Princess Yi De. Recently, the wind has been blowing smoothly, causing Jin Wang to be a bit less cautious. He deserves to be in trouble and have bad luck this time. We’ll just quietly watch from the sidelines.”

“Yes, Miss.”

On the other side, inside Jin Wang’s tent, the Third Prince, Ning Junjin, frowned, and his eyes were full of regret. His two personal guards were kneeling on the ground with their heads bowed, not daring to make a sound, “Didn’t the two of you say earlier that nothing would go wrong? How could such a big mistake have happened? The crown on Meng Handong’s head was broken, did you not notice?”

“Reporting to His Royal Highness Jin Wang, this subordinates had found out about it. But when we tried to search for it, someone approached us, so we could only give it up temporarily. We initially thought that the crown would not matter and irrelevant, but this servant did’t expec that it turned out to be an important clue to prove the innocence Yue Wang.”

Jin Wang’s face turned gloomy: “Forget it. I only wanted to test out Imperial Father’s attitude towards Yue Wang and did not expect that such a simple matter would hurt his bones. The two of you did not reveal your identities, right? I don’t want to end up pissed off.”

“In reply to His Royal Highness, the two subordinates are absolutely thorough and have not left any clues.”

Jin Wang nodded. Just as he was about to raise his hand to signal them to go down, he heard the news that the Emperor had called all the princes to his tent.

~ SHE WILL KILL YOU ~ 

In the hotel parking lot, Su Jinbei was inconvenient to get out of the car. Thus, Zhou Shiyun had no choice but to take Yang Zizi into the hotel himself.

Su Jinbei waited in the car and saw Zhou Shiyun leaving the hotel, but Yang Zizi ran after him. The two stood at the hotel’s entrance, and Yang Zizi stretched out her hand to hold Zhou Shiyun’s arm, her shoulder twitching so she should be crying.

Su Jinbei supported her chin to watch. To be honest, Yang Zizi’s appearance was really great. Although she was a child from the mountain, her skin was white and tender. She really feels sorry for her.

At this moment, Yang Zizi’s mouth opened and said something, but Su Jinbei couldn’t hear it because of the distance. Later, she saw Zhou Shiyun looking back in her direction and answering her question.

Suddenly, Yang Zizi’s face turned pale, and her gripping hand loosened. Zhou Shiyun never went to look her back again. Instead, he turned around and walked towards Su Jinbei.

Zhou Shiyun got into the car and drove away calmly. Su Jinbei looked out the window. She saw that Yang Zizi’s figure was getting smaller and smaller and finally disappeared.

“Hey, what did she say to you?”

“It’s nothing. Yang Ziz said that she likes me.”

“Ah... I’m not dead yet. I thought she would be more tactful, but I didn’t expect her to be so straightforward.” Su Jinbei was astonished. “Baby Zhou, she came to this city to look for a job. Will she look for you often in the future? I know she is Zhang Chao’s family, so you are too ashamed to refuse. That’s fine. I’ll take care of all her affairs now and let He Di take care of her.”

“No need.”

“Well. Why not?”

“She won’t come to me in the future.”

“Why.” Su Jinbei obviously didn’t believe it, “Then what did you say to her in the end?”

Zhou Shiyun looked back at her and said solemnly, “I said that the woman sitting in the car is fierce. If you continue to like me, she will kill you.”

“Huh?” Su Jinbei, “What nonsense are you talking about? Am I that kind of person?”

Zhou Shiyun smiled faintly, “Well, you are. So she will definitely not look for me again in the future.”

“...”

“Well, we will go to Hei Di first to take Wu Tong back.”

At the hotel entrance in the distance, Yang Zizi was still standing there in despair. She thought that she would never forget what Zhou Shiyun talked to her about in her life.

-------------------

I will only be with Su Jinbei in my life, and I will only love her alone. So, it’s useless if you like me. Except for her, I can’t see anyone.

-------------------

Su Jinbei called in advance to inform Hei Di that they were coming to pick up Wutong, so Hei Di opened the door early and waited to send away this rich and noble cat.

After raising it for so many days, she finally knew what Su Jinbei meant by “Thanks for your hard work these days” before she left. This cat deserves to come from a wealthy family. It is incredibly arrogant, sluggish, and extremely picky... She has made great efforts to serve it well.

“Jinbei, Jinbei, you are finally back.” Seeing their figures, Hei Di quickly got up to welcome them into the house.

“Where is Wu Tong?”

“Hey, it’s right there.”

Su Jinbei patted her on the shoulder, “Thank you.” After saying that, she picked up Wu Tong, “Let’s go home, little darling.”

When Wu Tong saw Su Jinbei, it was like seeing a family member. It was pretty happy, so it rubbed its paw pleasantly in her arms. He Di was very emotional while watching it. These few days, this fat cat didn’t give her a chance to hold her.

“Hei Di, then we’ll go back first.”

“Alright. Jingbei, you know ‘The Crisis City’ is about to be released. You come back just in time for the premiere. I’ll pick you up the day after tomorrow so you are a little prepared for getting ready.” Hei Di said while escorting them to the doorstep.

“I know.”

“Okay.”

The two drove home with Wu Tong. In the car, Zhou Shiyun answered a call.

“Suying?”

Because it was a speakerphone, Su Jinbei heard Shao Suying’s panicked voice, “Second Brother! It’s not good!”

“What’s the matter.”

“I heard from my family that Eldest Brother was unconscious yesterday.” Shao Suying said tearfully, “Second brother, I only know today, so I’m just getting ready to go back now!”

Zhou Shiyun was startled, “What...”

“Second brother, what should I do? Nothing will happen to the elder brother, right?”

“Don’t worry about it.” Zhou Shiyun said so, but his eyes were flustered, “I’ll go back right away.”

“Okay!”

After hanging up Shao Suying’s phone, Zhou Shiyun looked at Su Jingbei. Su Jinbei was also quite shocked, “Don’t look at me. Let’s go back!”

Both were confused after Shao Suying’s phone call, especially Zhou Shiyun, whose brows were frowning, and he was obviously worried about Zhou Zhengxian’s situation.

The car drove directly to the airport, and Su Jinbei had already bought the fastest ticket. After the two got out of the car, Zhou Shiyun made a phone call while walking.

After a lot of beeping on the phone, someone finally answered.

“Hello.”

“Ah Yan, how is my brother.”

Jiang Yan, on the other end of the phone, was stunned. His tone was strange, but Zhou Shiyun was bewildered, so he didn’t recognize it, “The Second Young Master, aren’t you in Guizhou? How do you know about this...”

“I just came back. Ah Yan, didn’t you say Eldest Brother’s body is no longer disturbed? How could he suddenly faint?”

“This...cough cough. You don’t need to worry, Second Young Master. It’s nothing.”

~ SMILING TIGER ~ 

Su Jinbei pulled Liu Tingting aside and whispered, “You have kept my address and phone number I gave you yesterday, right?”

“Yes.”

“Okay. If you want to find me in the future, just call me. Don’t be polite with me.” Su Jingbei said, “My skincare products have been left in your room. Girls must take good care of their skin.”

“Ah... your things are too expensive. I don’t want them.”

“You have taken me for so many days, but I haven’t given you the money for the room. Thus, you must accept it.” Su Jinbei wanted to leave more things. But only such valuable things were in her bag when she came here.

There was nothing she could do now. She has to wait until she returns to help these lovely children and the simple villagers.

“Remember, you must contact me in the future.”

Liu Tingting choked up, “I know...”

Everyone got in the car.

“Brother Shi Yun! Brother Shi Yun, wait for me!” Not far away, Yang Zizi ran over with her luggage.

Zhang Chao was stunned, “Zizi, what are you doing?”

“Doctor Zhang, I found a part-time job in Brother Shiyun’s city for this summer vacation. I will report for work the day after, so I want to go with Brother Shiyun and the others.”

“Well, why didn’t you say that earlier.”

“I forgot...”

Zhang Chao looked at the people embarrassedly. The car had empty seats, but he was embarrassed to speak. Not only because it was the medical team’s ride, but he also understood Yang Zizi’s psychology very well.

She looked for a part-time job in Zhou Shiyun’s city, but it was not the city where she went to university.

“Zizi, why don’t you stay for a few more days? Your brother misses you a lot.”

“Doctor Zhang, I’ve agreed to go to the part-time job, so I must go.” Yang Zizi said.

One of the doctors said, “It’s a coincidence that we have an empty seat here, so we can take her with us.”

Lin Qingwei coughed vigorously. The doctor glanced at him, and Lin Qingwei immediately focused on Su Jinbei. The doctor immediately reacts ... It seems it’s not the right time for him to speak.

“Doctor Lin, can I get a ride with you?” Yang Zizi asked softly.

Lin Qingwei was immediately embarrassed.

At this time, Su Jinbei, who had been silent, chuckled lightly, “What’s the matter? We also have an empty seat here. Zizi, you are really a sensible girl.”

No one talked as Su Jinbei spoke, so Yang Zizi’s face went sour. She looked at Zhou Shiyun, but Zhou Shiyun was flipping through the documents in his hand, and it seemed he didn’t even look at her when she came.

Even though Su Jinbei’s “kindness” was not rare, she had to go, so she still got on the bus.

Su Jinbei still smiled, but Lin Qingwei trembled inexplicably on the side. He could feel that she was like a smiling tiger.

— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —

It’s already past seven o’clock in the evening when everyone returns to their city.

They took the bus back to the hospital and then went to their homes after returning everything to the hospital. Zhou Shiyun’s car was parked at the hospital, so he returned to the house.

“Where are you working? We will send you there.” Su Jinbei asked when only Zhou Shiyun, Su Jinbei, and Yang Zizi left.

Yang Zizi looked at Zhou Shikai, and her face was a little embarrassed. “I will start working tomorrow, so I have nowhere to go now.”

Yang Zizi just wanted to live with Zhou Shiyun. Years ago, she came here with Zhang Chao and Xiao Yuan, who were ill then. They resided in Zhou Shiyun’s house for a while at that time. She thought that because Zhou Shiyun and Zhang Chao had such a good relationship, he wouldn’t leave her because she had no place to stay at night.

Su Jinbei’s face was innocent, “Ah...you have no place to stay this night. This will make it difficult for Zhou Shiyun.”

Zhou Shiyun glanced at her, a little puzzled. Is it difficult to do? Why doesn’t she just find a hotel?

“Hm, let me think about it.” Su Jinbei seemed to be seriously thinking about it: “Our house is not good, so let’s go to the hotel.”

Yang Zizi was startled, “Aren’t you guys not married yet?”

Su Jinbei replied, “Yes, but we live together. I think you will be embarrassed to stay in our house, so Shiyun and I will help you to open a hotel room.”

Yang Zizi bit her lip tightly, still struggling until the last “I, I am alone. I dare not stay in a hotel alone.”

“It’s alright. It’s a five-star hotel, so it is very safe.” Su Jinbei smiled and pulled Zhou Shiyun, “Let’s go. Let’s give her a lift to the hotel.”

Zhou Shiyun nodded to her, “Okay.”

As the car drove to the hotel, Su Jinbei softly hummed all the way, very leisurely. Zhou Shiyun glanced at her occasionally with a gentle smile.

In the car’s back seat, a particular woman looked very pale.

~ THE STORM IS RISING, THE BROTHERS FOUGHT EACH OTHER ~ 

The Second Prince, Yu Wang, hurriedly handed the crown over to Xu Li. “Imperial Father, this broken crown belonged to Meng Handong. It was shot by a feather arrow, and because the crown was made of pure gold, there are traces of an arrow on it. Please compare it with the feather arrow that hit Meng Handong?”

After Yu Wang finished speaking, he looked at Mu Yunyao and nodded slightly at her.

Mu Yunyao was relieved. At that time, Yue Wang had shot out a total of three arrows, the first of which had only broken off his crown and did not leave any scars on his body. However, another arrow had appeared on the chest of this person. Thus, he had definitely shot it with the same arrow that had broken off his crown.

The Emperor ordered his men to compare, and soon the result was out: “Reporting to Your Majesty, the mark on the crownis consistent with the arrow that shot into Meng Handong’s chest.”

Meng Xi was still in disbelief. “Your Imperial Majesty, these arrows are all about the same. How can you tell the truth just by looking at the marks?”

Yu Wang taunted and began to sneer: “Lord Meng is a civil minister, so he has never been to the battlefield. It is understandable for him that he does not know about bows and arrows. The arrows are made of pig iron, and although they are sharp, they are also very brittle. The feather arrows used in the hunting ground are thinner than those used on the battlefield. Therefore, if it hit the crown made of pure gold, the arrows will be damaged. After inspection, the arrow that pierced Meng Handong’s chest was damaged, and there were some marks left on the arrow. If that’s the case, then Fourth Imperial Brother killed Meng Handong, but Lord Meng is suspected of framing and biting the prince.”

“This humble subject does not dare. It is just that my son was killed, causing me to panic. If there is anything wrong with my words, Your Highness, please forgive me. Even though the arrow has hit the crown of Handong’s head, can’t it be used to kill him?” Meng Xi still does not give up. His son couldn’t just die for nothing.

Mu Yunyao opened her mouth and said, “Lord Meng, there are many arrows in His Royal Highness Yue Wang’s quiver. Could it be that after the arrow had pierced your son’s crown, His Royal Highness Yue Wang did not take it from the quiver again? But instead ran to your son, picked up the arrows that had been used, and then retreated to a distance to use that arrow to kill your son.”

Yu Wang laughed coldly, “There must have been someone who wanted to use the arrow with Fourth Imperial Brother’s mark to frame him. That was the reason why it took so much effort. Lord Meng, you have been trying to pull Yue Wang back, but who told you to do this?”

Meng Xi hurriedly shook his head. “Your Majesty, please enlighten me. This humble subject is extremely loyal to Your Majesty. I definitely won’t dare to frame Your Royal Highness Yue Wang. But, has my son died in vain just like that?”

“If you don’t tell me, I’ll forget that Meng Handong killed the Su family’s horses in front of the Palace gate, and he acted extraordinarily arrogantly. It was because I wanted to rush to the hunting grounds at that time, so I did not punish him for his crimes. In the end, he bore a grudge and bribed the servants who arranged the tents, intentionally putting Miss Mu’s tent at the edge, and even went together with Meng Yanran to release poisonous snakes in Miss Mu’s tent. Who on earth gave him the guts to do so?! Today, he dared to place poisonous snakes in Young Miss’ tents, and he dared to openly fire cold arrows at Yue Wang. Tomorrow, would he dare to move his s hands and feet on the head of Imperial Father or Imperial Aunt?!”

Meng Xi quickly shook his head, and his face pale. Don't talk about seeking justice for his son. It would be good if it didn’t involve the Meng family. “Your majesty, this humble subject didn’t know that the evil Meng Handong was actually so bold and presumptuous. He normally does things with propriety, and he would never do something like this....”

“Heh,” Yu Wang said with mockery, “Lord Meng didn’t feel guilty when he said this. No one in the ruling and the opposition knew that Grand Preceptor Meng had a few dull grandsons, who were unruly and violent, and they were about to be rumored to be a harm in the Capital. Now, do you said that they have a sense of measure? Isn't it afraid that people will laugh out loud when you say this?”

“Junyu, don’t be so rude.” The Emperor spoke.

Yu Wang was indignant. “Imperial Father, this son is too angry. The Meng family is really going too far and is really deceiving people too much. Meng Yanran publicly ridiculed Fourth Imperial Brother yesterday as a fallen prince and was extremely malicious towards Miss Mu. No matter how to say, Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo have a signboard written by Imperial Father. Miss Mu also donated a hundred thousand taels of silver to the common folk of Jingling City. The Meng family rumored that they humble, but why can’t I see that noble people like them are doing something to the advantage of the common people?”

Mu Yunyao lowered her eyes and did not speak further. There was a faint smile appeared in her heart. She really did not expect that His Royal Highness Yu Wang was so capable. Previously, the court had always said that Yu Wang was straightforward and did not stick to his rules. But in fact, this man was quite careful and didn’t say anything inappropriate.

Yue Wang cupped his hands and bowed to the Emperor: “Imperal Father, please uphold justice for this son.”

The Emperor was silent for a moment before he said, “This matter shall be referred to the Ministry of Justice, and the Ministry of Justice shall be responsible for the investigation. Meng Xi, do you have any objections?”

“This humble subject obeys Your Majesty’s decree.” Afraid that the Meng family might be dragged into this, Meng Xi quickly nodded.

“Go down.”

When the crowd left, the Emperor couldn’t help but rub the center of his brows, and his expression seemed extremely tired.

By the side, Xu Li carefully observed the Emperor’s expression. After a long while, he whispered, “Your Majesty, the Grand Princess said that she would like to invite you over for lunch, and it’s about time now.”

The Emperor nodded. “Let’s go.”

The Grand Princess Yi De had already arranged the meal. Seeing the Emperor walk in, she smiled and said, “I was just thinking of having someone invite Imperial Brother to come. I heard that something happened to those noisy people again?”

The Emperor sat down at the table, and a maid brought him a water basin to clean his hands. The Emperor simply wiped the water off before waving his hand to allow the Palace maids to leave. Then he said, “The younger generation member of the Meng family, Handong, is dead. Someone wants to blame it on Fourth Son.”

“It seems like even if Fourth Son isn’t too favoured, some people still felt that he is a hindrance.” The Grand Princess Yi De let out a sigh. “Although this child’s personality is a bit cold, his heart is actually good. He could sees through everything. It’s only been a few days since he’s come back, and yet there’s already people secretly attacking him. It’s really too anxious.”

“Imperial Elder Sister, you said that this time …” When the matter spread, he did not believe it at all. After all, even if Yue Wang did not have a brain, he would not use such a method to kill Meng Handong. However, he didn’t know who moved his hand behind his back …

The Grand Princess Yi De used her chopsticks to add some dishes to the Emperor and said with a tone full of emotion: “The children have all grown up, each of them has their own thoughts and plans, and each of them has their own achievements. Imperial Brother, you also have to think things through and should be more open-minded. After all, you have already experienced the struggles of the royal family, so no matter how friendly you were previously, you still changed in front of the throne. Even before brothers and friends, before the throne, you have become vulnerable.”

“Imperial Elder Sister, I have experienced those struggles, so that’s why I want to make the children reconcile and harmonious. The opportunities I give them are fair. I just want to let them know in this way that I treat them equally. They don’t need to fight each other. They just need to do their own thing well. I will select the person who is most suitable to inherit the throne from among them.”

The Grand Princess Yi De shook her head. “The trees desire peace and quiet, but the wind cannot stop blowing. It is inevitable that no one will move their minds. Fortunately, this time it didn’t lead to a huge mistake. Imperial Brother, you just need to help them get a good temper in time.”

~ MENG HANDONG IS DEAD ~ 

Mu Yunyao smiled, and her eyes shone brightly. Now, no matter if it was her or Yue Wang, both of them were carrying too many things on them, and these things could very possibly affect them greatly in the future.

One year is more than enough time to resolve most of these matters. By that time, if their intentions hadn’t changed, they would naturally be able to stay together safely.

Seeing her current state, even Yue Wang could not help but smile too. Her smile carried an indescribable power, causing the surrounding scenery to brighten up involuntarily. Even if it was just for this smile, he was willing to wait for this one year.

When Mu Yunyao and Yue Wang returned to the tent, the imperial guards immediately surrounded them. The Second Prince, Yu Wang, had an unsightly expression on his face. When he saw that the imperial guards were going to detain the two of them, he quickly stopped them, “Impudent! Imperial Father still hasn’t come to a conclusion. Is it your turn to make a move?”

Mu Yunyao’s gaze trembled as a bad premonition arose in her heart.

Yu Wang walked up and quickly said, “Meng Handong of the Meng family is dead. At this moment, Meng Xi brought his corpse to Imperial Father and reported that you killed Meng Handong because the arrow on his body carried your mark.”

In order to make it easier to distinguish between the prey, the feather arrows used in the hunting grounds were marked with various markings so as not to cause a dispute while counting the prey.

Yue Wang nodded his head, and his expression no longer anxious: “Thank you for the reminder, Second Imperial Brother.”

Yu Wang patted his shoulder and turned to look at Mu Yunyao. “You guys must be careful. Hurry up and go to Imperial Father’s tent.”

Mu Yunyao walked forward a few steps before suddenly turning around. “Your Royal Highness, I wonder if I can trouble you to do something?”

Yu Wang was slightly surprised, but he still nodded his head. He waved his hand to signal the guards to back away, “You say.”

Mu Yunyao walked up and said a word in a soft voice. Under the joyful gaze of the other party, she turned around and followed the steps of Yue Wang.

At this moment, Meng Handong’s corpse was placed within the Emperor’s tent.

Mu Yunyao came in with Yue Wang, then after saluting, she shot her gaze over.

Yue Wang shot three arrows in the forest. The first arrow broke off Meng Handong’s crown, the second shot pierced through the palm of his hand, and the third shot pierced through his left shoulder. In other words, there were only two wounds on Meng Handong’s body, and neither of them is a fatal position. But right now, an arrow was nocked in his chest, killing him instantly.

The Emperor didn’t tell them to get up. Instead, his aura was extremely oppressive, “Fourth Child, Meng Xi accused you of murdering someone. I had someone inspect it, and your mark was on the arrow that took Meng Handong’s life.”

Yue Wang turned his head and looked at Meng Handong’s corpse.

“I shot the arrows in his palm and shoulders. As for the arrow in his chest, which took his life, it has nothing to do with me. Imperial Father, please inspect it clearly.”

Meng Xi wiped his tears with his sleeves and said with a sorrowful expression, “Your Royal Highness, although Handong was impulsive and a bit mischievous, he is still a good boy. Even if he offended you, you shouldn’t torture him like this and even kill him in the end. It’s really too cruel.”

Yue Wang turned his head. “According to what Lord Meng said, no matter what Meng Handong has done, then I should understand?”

“This official has no intention of doing so....”

“Since there is no such meaning, how do you know if Meng Handong deserves to die or not?”

Meng Xi did not expect Yue Wang to speak so rudely. His breath caught in his throat, and he paused for a moment before speak, “Handong definitely knows what he’s doing. He’s always sticks to his manners....”

Meng Xi hurriedly shook his head and kowtowed to the Emperor. “Your Majesty, this humble subject definitely does not intend to do that.”

“Do you mean that I have no sense of propriety? Talking about the royal family is a big crime, and the punisment is beheading. Is Lord Meng ready to think about it?”

Meng Xi shook his head quickly and kowtowed at the Emperor: “The Emperor, this minister absolutely have no intention of this.”

Yue Wang’s voice was cold: “Meng Handong shot an arrow at me with the intention to assassinate me. Fortunately, Miss Mu helped me out and saved my life, so this did not cost this my life, which is why I didn’t kill him. I only shot his palm and shoulder also gave him a small warning. Does Lord Meng think that I has done wrong?”

“Your Royal Highness, the small punishment and the big admonition in your mouth is take Handong’s life!”

Yue Wang bowed towards the Emperor, “Imperial Father, someone has deliberately killed Meng Handong to framed this son and intends to put this son to death. I would like Imperial Father’s help to uphold the justice.”

Looking at the imposing Ning Junyue in his words and deeds, a complicated look flashed across the Emperor’s eyes. “You say that someone was framed you?”

“That’s right. Imperial Father, please think about it carefully. Your son’s identity is the prince of the Imperial Court, so it’s easy for me to make things difficult for Meng Handong. Even if I have to kill him, I just need to make an excuse. Why should I take the risk to secretly kill him?”

Meng Xi was a little dumbfounded. He didn’t expect that Yue Wang would come forward with confidence and tell the truth. In the end, he was blocked by Yue Wang and was speechless. “Your Majesty, this is all a fabrication by Yue Wang. The feather arrow on Handong’s body is an indisputable fact. Is it true that the judgement of the case only listens to reasonable and unreasonable, but does not look at whether there is evidence or not?”

The Emperor frowned, “Fourth Child, do you have anything else to say?”

Mu Yunyao suddenly spoke, “Your Majesty, this humble daughter has something to say.”

“You?” The Emperor swept his cold gaze across the place, and the emotions deep within his eyes were inexplicable.

“Your majesty, this humble daughter was present at that time, which can be said to be the only witness.”

“Oh? Then tell me, what kind of proof can you make?”

“Your majesty, this humble daughter can testify. Your highness Yue Wang is innocent.” Felt the increasing pressure in the tent, Mu Yunyao’s expression did not show the slightest trace of panic as she spoke in a clear voice.

“Where is the evidence?”

“The evidence is on Meng Handong.” Mu Yunyao pointed at Meng Handong’s corpse. “The arrow that killed Meng Handong hit him squarely in the chest. It went from the back of his heart to the front of his chest and killed him with one shot. The Emperor could ask the imperial physician to examine the other two wounds on his body. Both arrows were shot from the front, which can be easily judged from the wounds.”

Meng Xi was unconvinced. “Handong sensed the killing intent of Yue Wang, so he must have wanted to turn around and flee. Don’t tell me that he stay where he is, waiting to be killed by Yue Wang? An arrow in the chest must have been shot while he was running!”

Mu Yunyao nodded, “Why do you say that? It’s as if Lord Meng saw it with his own eyes.”

“I was only guessing. Naturally, I didn’t see it with my own eyes.”

“Didn’t you say just now that the case was based on evidence and not a fabrication?” Mu Yunyao tossed the words that Meng Xi had said back to Yue Wang. “I’m a witness at the scene, and I’ve personally seen what I said.”

Meng Xi angrily gritted his teeth. “You … Who knows if your words are true or not? ” Since Yue Wang favored her, she would naturally help Yue Wang!

At this moment, the Second Prince, Yu Wang, quickly walked in. “This son greets Imperial Father. I have found evidence to prove Fourth Imperial Brother’s innocence.” The Emperor raised his head, “Present it!”

~ A YEAR’S COMMITMENT ~ 

Yue Wang looked coldly at Meng Handong. His body was as straight as a snow pine. He slowly pulled out a feathered arrow and nocked it onto his bow. He pulled back his arm and instantly pulled the bow into a crescent moon shape. If he wasn’t here just now, even if Meng Handong’s arrow couldn’t kill Yunyao, it would have heavily injured her.

Meng Handong’s eyes widened, and his eyeballs were about to pop out. He could not help but feel a strong sense of fear in his heart, and he kneeled down with a “pu tong” sound. “Your Royal Highness, I was wrong. I really know my wrongs. I will not dare to find trouble with Miss Mu anymore. I beg you to spare my life!”

He hated Mu Yunyao in his heart. If it wasn’t for her, his sister wouldn’t have lost control of her sense of propriety, causing the Emperor to be angered to death. Also, his Eldest Uncle wouldn’t have been removed from office, and he wouldn’t have been employed for five years. The Meng family had suffered too much this time, so when he saw Mu Yunyao, hatred surged in his heart, and he shot an arrow directly. He didn’t think Yue Wang was guarding at her side!

Since Yue Wang left the Capital over Western Guangdong, he rarely returned he seldom came back every year. The people in the Imperial Court had no impression of him other than a despairing prince who was not in favor. They knew very little about Yue Wang’s temperament and style. Meng Handong did not hold much respect for Yue Wang at first. Otherwise, he would have knelt and begged for mercy the moment he saw Yue Wang. He wouldn’t have waited until his palm was pierced before realizing his fear.

Meng Handong was really scared. Seeing that no matter how he pleaded, Yue Wang did not loosen his grip on him and immediately shifted his gaze to Mu Yunyao. The woman was soft-hearted, and Yue Wang himself was taking revenge on him for her sake, so as long as he could make a move on Mu Yunyao, Yue Wang would definitely spare his life, “Little Sister Mu, it is all because of my reckless actions, and I nearly injured you. I will definitely prepare a great gift to come and apologize to you in the future. I beg Miss Mu to help me speak up and allow Yue Wang to be magnanimous to raise his hand!”

Yue Wang looked towards Mu Yunyao and seemed to be waiting for her to speak.

Mu Yunyao slightly raised the corner of her lips and smiled brilliantly. Her eyes focused on Meng Handong’s palm as she said, “Young Master Meng, if I hadn’t been so lucky just now, you wouldn’t have had the chance to beg me.”

“No, I never thought of harming Miss Mu’s life … I… I didn’t mean to....”

Mu Yunyao’s smile grew wider. “Don’t worry, His Royal Highness Yue Wang didn’t want to hurt your life. After all, you’re Grand Preceptor Meng’s grandson. It would be too much trouble for you to die on the hunting grounds.”

A hint of a smile flashed through Yue Wang’s eyes. But when he looked at Meng Handong, it had turned completely ice-cold. His thin lips pursed into a line, and his killing intent seemed to solidify. With sharp arrows, he shot straight through Meng Handong’s left shoulder.

Blood splattered as the arrow shot out from his body. Meng Handong couldn’t help but let out a wail and then fell to the ground with a thud.

Yue Wang finally put away his bow and arrows, bent over, and picked up the jade-green step on the ground. After checking to see if there were no omissions, he gave it to Mu Yunyao.

Mu Yunyao took out a handkerchief and wrapped it around her broken steps. Then she looked at Meng Handong, who was on the ground, “Young Master Meng, you previously said that as long as I keep your life, you would prepare a generous gift and come to the door to apologize in person. I will remember this in my heart. Don’t forget it because I will be waiting for you at the Su family’s residence.”

Yue Wang chuckles in his heart. He then carefully lifts Mu Yunyao on the horse’s back and leads the horse away slowly.

It was only a long while after the two of them left that Meng Handong slowly got up from the ground. His face was deathly pale as he looked in the direction where the two of them had left. The hatred and fear intertwined in his eyes: Yue Wang, Mu Yunyao … These two people were actually so cold-blooded and heartless!

After walking far away, Yue Wang looked at Mu Yunyao. “How do you know that he’s pretending to be unconscious?”

“A person who is skilled in medicine does have a bit of discernment ability. Naturally, I can distinguish between a real or a fake fainting at a glance.”

Yue Wang has a smile in his eyes. He did not know what other people would look like if they liked someone. In any case, ever since he fell for Mu Yunyao, even if she looked at him coldly, he would still think that she was so cute. “Be careful. The Meng family is not as simple as they seem.”

“Yes, I will pay more attention and be more careful.”

Yue Wang looked at the hill not far away. From here to the foot of the hill, there was a flat area. It was a good place for a horse to run. “Yunyao, do you want to make the horse run faster?” Yue Wang then turned his head to looked Yunyao and asked, “What do you think?”

“Hmm?” Mu Yunyao was a little doubtful. “It’s my first time riding a horse, so I’m not that good, and I don't know how to....”

Yue Wang smiled and used all his strength to board the horse. He sat behind Mu Yunyao and reached out his hand to wrap her whole body in his embrace. He fiercely shook the reins in his hand and shouted loudly, “Go!”

The horse swung its front hooves, whinnied, then sped off.

Mu Yunyao was caught off guard. Her back was pressed tightly against Yue Wang’s chest as she nervously bit down on her lower lip.

The wind whistled past her ears as the scenery on both sides quickly retreated. After adapting, Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but laugh out loud. She moved forward so quickly, as though she was floating atop the wind, which immediately gave birth to a heroic feeling in her heart.

It was only at the foot of the hill that the horse stopped.

The smile on Mu Yunyao’s face was brilliant, and her eyes shone faintly. After being led off by Yue Wang, she felt as if her feet were stepping on cotton. It was the first time she rode a horse while running. It really did seem like she was flying.

“Although my Palace is quite remote, it is extremely huge. There is a martial arts training ground that has been built. If you like it, I can take you to ride a horse at any time.”

Mu Yunyao smiled and let out a sigh of relief. She felt her mood was incomparably bright and beautiful. The haze she had accumulated over this time had disappeared without a trace. “Okay, when I want to ride a horse, I will let people tell you. But after we return to the Capital, it’s not appropriate for me to frequently visit your estate, is it?”

“When you have your coming age ceremony, I’ll propose a marriage decree to Imperial Father. How about it?”

Mu Yunyao’s smile froze as a complicated look appeared in her eyes, “Bestow the marriage decree?” Able to trouble the Emperor to bestow a marriage, she must be married to the royal family. However, with her current status, it’s absolutely impossible for her to marry Yue Wang.”

“That’s right. When you are old enough, I will marry you.” Yue Wang lowers his head and looks into Mu Yunyao’s eyes with expectation. He knew that he was anxious, but he just couldn’t control himself. He wanted Yunyao to become his wife, wanted her to always be by his side, wanted her to embrace her without a care in the world, and wanted to be with her for the rest of her life.

Mu Yunyao slightly tilted her head and turned to look at Yue Wang. “Have you made up your mind seriously, Fourth Master? Come to think of it. My current identity is a merchant’s daughter. Can Fourth Master take a merchant’s daughter as his Wangfei?”

Yue Wang understood the worries in her heart, but he didn’t mind, “Yue Wang can’t, but Ning Junyue can.”

Mu Yunyao shook her head slightly. “My coming age ceremony will be in another month. During this time, I’ve been busy taking care of Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo. I haven’t had the time to accompany my mother for a long time, so I want to stay with her for one year. Could Fourth Master promise me?”

“One year?”

“Yes, one year! A year from now, if Fourth Master still treats me the same way as it is today, I will definitely wear a phoenix crown and happily marry you.”

Yue Wang looked at Mu Yunyao’s eyes for a while, then nodded with a smile and agreed, “Alright, then I’ll wait for one year before asking Imperial Father for the permission. At that time, I’ll definitely marry you in full glory!”

~ THE LOSS OF MENG HANDONG ~ 

Yue Wang was stunned for a moment, but he quickly smiled and extended his hand: “Come!”

Mu Yunyao raised her hand and swiftly moved it away just before she touched Yue Wang’s finger. A trace of craftiness flashed across her eyes, “Men and women shouldn’t be intimate with each other. Fourth Master must learn to be respectful.”

A hint of disappointment quickly flashed through Yue Wang’s eyes. Seeing that Mu Yunyao had already arrived in front of his horse, he hurriedly followed behind her.

Yue Wang’s horse was black. Its body was tall and sturdy. Seeing Mu Yunyao walk over, it lightly snorted and gently took two steps forward as she approached.

Mu Yunyao reached out her hand to touch the horse’s head, her eyes filled with curiosity.

Yue Wang stood behind her. Looking at her cautious movements, her happy and carefree smile, he felt as if time had calmed down in an instant. He wished that he could stop right at this moment.

Mu Yunyao turned her head, the smile in her eyes becoming even stronger. “Fourth Master, can I go up and have a try?”

Yue Wang walked forward and used both his hands to hold her waist. He then forcefully lifted Mu Yunyao onto the horse’s back and passed the reins over. “Hold tight. I’ll help you lead the horse. Don’t be afraid.”

There was a sudden increase in weight on horseback, so the horse took two small steps and then stopped on the spot obediently.

Mu Yunyao cried out in alarm, her cheeks turning slightly red from nervousness, “Then you have to be careful. Don’t ever drop me.”

“That’s not necessarily the case. When you want to fall, you must find the right direction before you fall. If you fall on my side, I can reach out and catch you. If you fall on the other side, that’s not certain.”

“Previously, the Grand Princess had said that you were stubborn and taciturn, but I didn’t notice it.”

As Yue Wang led the horse forward, he paid careful attention to Mu Yunyao to prevent her from fall down. “Naturally, that is different.”

“What’s the difference?”

“The Grand Princess is my aunt. She is related by blood and has many years of feelings. She understands my personality, and she understands many things even if I don’t say them. But you...” Yue Wang suddenly stopped and slightly lowered his voice. He was clearly looking for the common word you, but he still gave others a feeling that he was intimate with her and made people feel romantic.

Mu Yunyao blinked and slightly leaned forward, “What’s wrong with me?”

Yue Wang stopped in his tracks and looked up at Mu Yunyao. His eyes seemed to reflect the blue of the sky and seemed boundless. “You are a girl that I love. Naturally, I have to put in a lot of effort in order to encircle you.”

Mu Yunyao subconsciously held her breath as she tightly grasped the reins in her hands. Her body leaned even lower than before as she approached Yue Wang from her horse. She coldly snorted and said, “These words, where did Fourth Master learn them from?”

The intentionally created ambiguous atmosphere was no longer present. Yue Wang could not help but let out a light cough: “Where did I learn from? It naturally come to my mind when I see you.”

In the past, he also felt that he was not good at words. Even on many occasions, Eunuch Chen was worried that he would die alone in his old age if he continued like this. But after meeting Mu Yunyao, he always wanted to express all the thoughts in his heart so that she could clearly see what he was thinking.

Mu Yunyao looked at Yue Wang seriously. Her chest was beating so fiercely that she could even clearly hear her own heartbeat. “Fourth Master …”

Before he could speak, he heard a sudden sound breaking through the air. Yue Wang’s pupils constricted as he quickly made his move and pulled Mu Yunyao away, then directly lifted her off the horse. An arrow with unstoppable momentum flew above Mu Yunyao’s head, and with a ‘pa’ sound, it knocked away the jade-green step on her head!

Mu Yunyao’s eyes turned cold as she abruptly turned her head in the direction the arrow had come from.

Meng Handong drove his horse over slowly and pointed his longbow and feather arrow towards Mu Yunyao. “Aiya, it’s Miss Mu. Just now, there was a vague shadow in the forest. I thought it was a fox that had run out of nowhere, so I shot an arrow. There will inevitably be a miss on this hunting ground. It’s fortunate that I didn’t harm Miss Mu. Otherwise, I would just....”

Meng Handong rode a horse around the trees in front of him, and when he saw Yue Wang, who was standing next to Mu Yunyao, his face immediately turned white. He hurriedly got off his horse. “Your Royal Highness Yue Wang, why are you here? I Just...”

Yue Wang’s expression was cold. His entire body emitting a cold killing intent, just like the wind and snow were passing through here. He took his bow and arrow from the horse, then aimed straight at Meng Handong’s direction, his eyes cold and without any warmth as he pulled on the bowstring forcefully.

Mu Yunyao coldly said, “I haven’t even seen a fox, but I’ve seen a wild dog.”

Meng Handong didn’t pay attention to Mu Yunyao at this time. As he spoke to plead for mercy, he slowly stepped back, “Your Royal Highness Yue Wang, I didn’t do it on purpose just now. I really thought I saw a fox and shot an arrow. The jungle in the hunting ground is dense, and many people are accidentally injured by arrows every year. Although I made a mistake, I were not able to injure both of you. Thus, I hope that Your Highness will be magnanimous....”

Last night, Yue Wang had kicked Meng Yanran flying, and his expression was as calm as it was now. Even if he wasn’t favored by the Emperor, he was still a prince. Thus, the Emperor would never punish his son for his sake. “Your Royal Highness, you ... what are you trying to do?”

Seeing that Yue Wang was about to let go of his bowstring, Meng Handong no longer cared about talking anymore. He immediately turned around and ran away.

Yue Wang slowly moved the bow and arrow in his hand. After Meng Handong running for about twenty steps, his fingers suddenly loosened, and the arrow shot towards Meng Handong with a ‘whoosh’ sound, breaking the golden crest on his head with a ‘pah’ sound.

Meng Handong directly fell to the ground, hurriedly raising his hand to touch his head. Only after he discovered that his crest was broken, and it didn’t injure him, did he finally heave a heavy sigh of relief.

Just now, he was obstructed by the forest and didn’t see Yue Wang, who was helping Mu Yunyao lead the horse. Otherwise, no matter how brazen he was, he wouldn’t dare make a move in public.

Remembering that Yue Wang should be out of anger after shooting himself with an arrow, Meng Handong slowly stood up. He turned around and wanted to say a few more words of apology, but just as he turned his head, he saw Yue Wang draw his bowstring again and aim precisely in his direction.

Meng Handong’s eyes widened, filled with fear. “Your Royal Highness Yue Wang … Please forgive me this time for my grandfather’s sake, Grand Preceptor Meng. I won’t dare to cause trouble for Miss Mu anymore.”

Yue Wang slightly narrowed his eyes as if he hadn’t heard Meng Handong’s words. His fingers loosened their grip, and the arrow shot towards Meng Handong. Before he could react, it pierced through his palm.

Mu Yunyao’s eyes trembled, and then she felt a warm current flow through her heart. Previously, when Meng Handong gathered in front of the Palace, he had killed the horse, which caused the carriage to shake. She was unprepared for a moment, and the back of her hand ruthlessly smashed against the door. Although she could not feel the pain now, there were still traces of blue and purple. Yue Wang had accurately pierced through Meng Handong’s hand, definitely to avenge for herself.

His hand was pierced through by the feather arrow, and Meng Handong let out a painful howl. He clutched his arm and trembled, and fresh blood flowed from his hand. He looked extremely miserable.

 
After a long while, Meng Handong finally clenched his teeth and endured. He looked at Yue Wang with a pale face: “Your Royal Highness Yue ang, is this enough to avenge everything that happened previously?”

~ THE GRAND PRINCESS YI DE’S APPROVAL ~ 

The tent suddenly became silent. After a while, Grand Princess Yi De burst out laughing and said, “Don’t say anything else. The two of you are extremely compatible in personality.”

Mu Yunyao raised her head in surprise and looked at Grand Princess Yi De in confusion.

“What is it? Do you think I’m an evil person who would beat a lover?” The Grand Princess Yi De smiled with a hint of slyness in her smile.

“Yunyao doesn’t dare.” Mu Yunyao still felt a little absent-minded. Could it be … just now the Grand Princess Yi De just joking with her?

The Grand Princess Yi De laughed. “Take a seat. I heard that you are extremely skilled in making tea. Why don’t you make one so I can taste it?”

Mu Yunyao hurriedly nodded. “Yes.”

As soon as the Grand Princess Yi De finished her words, it was no wonder that a maid came forward with a whole set of tea sets.

Mu Yunyao carefully wiped her hands and took a deep breath. After calming her heart, she sat down behind the table and started brewing tea carefully. Soon, the fragrance of tea wafted out.

The Grand Princess Yi De looked appreciatively and nodded slightly: “Your tea-making craftsmanship is really great.”

Mu Yunyao pursed her lips and smiled, “I’ve practiced hard before.”

“No matter how hard many people practice, they can't reach your level. The reason is you have a talent. I heard that Bu Xian Luo has excellent development?”

Mu Yunyao’s heart trembled. She didn’t know if the Grand Princess Yi De was just casually asking, or if she had found out that the real owner of Bu Xian Luo was Yue Wang, “Currently, Bu Xian Luo has been set up in Eight Regions. The development is remarkably great, and every month it makes a lot of profit.”

The Grand PrincessYi De smiled. “Then that’s good. Step by step, there will always be time. The long term plan is to to keep things slowly and moisten things silently.”

A trace of understanding flashed through Mu Yunyao’s heart. The Grand Princess Yi De really did know. “Yes, Yunyao will remember this.”

“Child, you’re quite intelligent, and your skills in making tea are not bad either.You should often come to my place so we could talk with me.” The kid, Yue Wang, had been through many hardships for so many years. It was rare for him to have someone who could please his heart, so it’s better to suggest something that can bring up some points or raise some points.

“Yes, Yunyao thanks the Grand Princess for her love.” Since she had already decided that she wanted to make some progress with Yue Wang, she should plan things out for the future. Since the Grand Princess Yi De had already spoken, she wouldn’t be so foolish as to push such a great opportunity out.

At the door, Qu Mama walked in and reported, “Your Highness Grand Princess, Your Highness Yue Wang requests an audience. He is currently at the entrance of the tent.”

The Grand Princess Yi De couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s only been a short while. Can I still attact people here? Go tell him that I’m so busy right now and don’t have time to see him. Let him take a walk around the hunting grounds when he has nothing better to do, and asked him to bring two good furs.”

Qu Mama smiled and replied, “Yes, Your Highness. Your servant will pass on the message right away.”

The Grand Princess Yi De looked at Mu Yunyao, his eyes brimming with joy. “Junyue still needs to grind his temper a bit. He seems quite a calm person. But once he encounters something he cares about, he won’t care about anything. Moreover, he usually has a dull temperament. Even when facing his father, he would not say a word of soft words. I don’t know how many times he has suffered because of his personality.” In the beginning, as long as he was not so bigoted, the Emperor would not have sent him to Western Guangdong.

Mu Yunyao was a little stunned. Yue Wang, in her memories, and the person whom Grand Princess Yi De spoke were very different. He would conceal his little thoughts and think of some tricks to make her happy, to shamelessly say that his internal injuries had yet to heal … Even if he is usually cold, he always faces her with gentle eyebrows and eyes. She can’t see that he was narrow-minded at all.

The corner of Grand Princess Yi De’s lips wore a slight smile, and she didn’t point out what to say. In this world, it is easy for him to ask for priceless treasures. But it is rare for him to found a lover. Yue Wang converged his strength in front of Mu Yunyao and worked hard to get closer to her. If he can get her heart, then everyone will be happy. But if he failed, it could only mean that fate had yet to arrive. Everyone understood this logic, but not many people could truly practice it. Whether it was bitter or sweet, the two of them still needed to experience it for themselves.

Not long after, Qu Mama walked in again. “Reporting to His Royal Highness Grand Princess, His Royal Highness Yue Wang has brought some prey and would like to invite you out to take a look.”

“So fast? Did he shoot two rabbits to deal with me?” The Grand Princess Yi De stood up, “Yunyao, you come with me to take a look.” If she didn’t let her out, someone might break in later.

Just as Grand Princess Yi De left the tent entrance, she saw that Yue Wang’s gaze was focused on the tent’s entrance.

“Greetings, Imperial Aunt.” Yue Wang cupped his hands in salute. When he saw Mu Yunyao’s usual expression, he couldn’t help but secretly let out a sigh of relief. This morning, he had originally wanted to find Mu Yunyao to ride a horse. However, he was informed that his Imperial Aunt had called her away first, so he hurriedly rushed over.

Several preys were lying on the table at the side. Each of them had been pierced by an arrow and died. There was not much blood on them, and it did not damage their fur in the slightest.

“It looks like your riding and shooting skills have improved quite a bit in just one night. Yesterday, you only handed in one hare to deal with the situation. But today, six prey have appeared in a short time.” The Grand Princess Yi De looked at Yue Wang with a smile and then waved her hand. “Alright, I understand that young kids like you can’t stand talking to an old lady like me. So, just do whatever you have to do.”

Yue Wang and Mu Yunyao looked at each other, their ears slightly flushed. “What nonsense is Imperial Aunt saying? What’s so good about hunting? We’re all willing to accompany you.”

“There are plenty of opportunities to accompany me in the future. It wasn’t easy for you to come to the hunting grounds, so you’ve got to have fun.

“Yes.”

Mu Yunyao followed Yue Wang outside. Along the way, various gazes would be cast towards them from the surroundings from time to time. Her forehead slightly frowns, but she didn’t deliberately pull the distance away.

Walking all the way out of the camp, only then did Yue Wang stop his steps, feeling a little nervous in his heart, “Yunyao, what did Imperial Aunt say to you?”

Mu Yunyao raised her head and slightly stretched her body. She removed the tension from her body and found a clean patch of grass to sit down on. “What does Fourth Master think the Grand Princess will say to me?”

“I can’t guess what Imperial Aunt was thinking, but it should have something to do with me injuring Meng Yanran last night.”

“That’s right, Grand Princess Yi De said that I implicated you, causing you to form an enmity with the Meng family in the Imperial Court.” Yes, that’s right, Grand Princess Yi De said that I implicated you, causing you to form an enmity with the Meng family in the imperial court. In the future, it could be said that the situation is more difficult. She also said that there's a big gap between your status and I, and there is a possibility that we won’t be together in the future...” Mu Yunyao’s face carried a hint of sadness, but her tone was filled with a sense of loss.

Yue Wang’s eyes focused. He walked up to Mu Yunyao, bent his legs, and squatted down, “Since I was young, I have not been favored by Imperial Father. At the age of twelve, I have been entrusted to Western Guangdong, and most of the officials in the Imperial Court did not place any importance on me, so it doesn’t matter whether I got into a feud or not. As for identity, I never care. What about ordinary people? So what if I am the Emperor’s son? If I had valued my status, I wouldn’t still be by myself right now.”

Mu Yunyao raised her head slightly and looked at the Yue Wang, who was squatting in front of her, with a smile suddenly bursting into her face: “I’m just joking. How could Grand Princess Yi De say such things? She just asked me to make her a cup of tea and talk to her when I am free.”

Even if he wasn’t favored, he was still the current prince and the legitimate son of the Emperor. If he could put down his status and not be afraid of gossip, then what was there to be afraid of? She started her life over again. If she couldn’t live a happy life as she wished, what was the difference between this and her previous life?

“Really?”

“Of course.” A breeze blew by, giving her a chilly feeling. Mu Yunyao slightly narrowed her eyes and stroked her hair was blown around by the wind behind her ears. She narrowed her eyes and said, “Didn’t Fourth Master say he wanted to teach me how to ride a horse? Is that true?”

~ THE GRAND PRINCESS YI DE HAS INVITED YOU ~ 

“Yunyao, what are you thinking?” Seeing Mu Yunyao’s silence, Yue Wang’s heart tensed up. “It’s getting late. Go back first and rest early. How about I teach you how to ride horse and hunt tomorrow?”

“Fourth Master, seeing that there are many people and many eyes, it is not appropriate ….”

“There’s nothing inappropriate about it. I’m not afraid of crowds of people.” Today, he dared to step out because he’d already expressed his determination. He didn’t care about his identity and only cared about Mu Yunyao.

Mu Yunyao’s emotions became increasingly complicated as she absent-mindedly took two steps to the side. It was too dark to see her feet clearly, so she fell over to the side.

Yue Wang reached out and put the girl in his arms. There was a strong smile in his eyes. The person in his embrace was slender and soft as if a single exertion of force could injure her. Even her breathing was light, making her appear exceptionally elegant. She extended his arms, hugged her, and weighed her in his hands, as light as a feather, as if she weighed nothing.

“Fourth Master!” Mu Yunyao exclaimed in a low voice. It was one thing for him not to be able to catch her just now, but this person had actually lifted her up and weighed her in his arms. This was truly… Seriously…

Yue Wang hurriedly and carefully placed her to the side. Just now, he had really moved subconsciously, and by the time he had regained his senses, he had already picked up the person in his arms. “Cough cough … My internal injuries have yet to heal....”

A trace of anger flashed through Mu Yunyao’s eyes, “How many more times do you want to use an excuse like this?”

“Cough cough, it’s true this time....”

“Then let Fourth Master take a good rest.”

When she returned to the tent, Mu Yunyao still felt it both infuriating and laughable, but she put down her previous wild thoughts.

After a simple wash, Mu Yunyao went to bed to rest. She had a good night’s sleep and got up early the next day.

Jin Lan held the clothes one by one. She seemed to be hesitating. “Miss, which riding outfit are you wearing today?”

“Just pick any one of them.” Mu Yunyao didn’t really care much.

“That won’t do. After changing tents yesterday afternoon, you have been resting inside and did not notice that there was a good performance outside.” Jin Lan sighed with emotion. “Normally, when the ladies dress up for fear of encountering each other, they are always extra meticulous and meticulous. However, I don’t know why, but yesterday, somehow those ladies wear all red, water red, rose red, peach red … Looking from afar, it really is a blaze of warmth. and brilliance.”

Mu Yunyao chuckled and chose a tortoiseshell earring to wear. “Perhaps it’s because they think red is eye-catching and be able to stand out amongst so many people. But they never expected that so many people would think of the same thing.”

“That’s right. With just a single glance, I can see red everywhere. It is extremely shocking, and I can’t even tell who is who.” Jin Lan took out a riding suit with a pale yellow bottom embroidered with a jade-green cloud pattern. “Miss, what do you think of this outfit?”

Mu Yunyao originally wanted to nod her head. But suddenly thought of the words Yue Wang, he had said last night that he would take her to ride a horse. “Yesterday, I wore an apricot color, so it’s not appropriate to wear light yellow today. Let’s just wear that violet one.”

“Yes, Miss.”

The riding outfit Mu Yunyao had chosen didn’t look too impressive. Moreover, many people felt that the violet color was too deep and wasn’t suitable for young girls. However, when Mu Yunyao wore it, the deep violet light made her face as white as jade. Her eyes seemed as if they were made of water, so they looked more and more transparent.

Jin Lan couldn’t help but exclaim, “Miss, you looks so beautiful when you wore it. This servant has discovered that no matter how provocative the colors are, as long as they reach Miss’s body, they are all exceptionally stunning.”

“No matter how much of a flattered you say it, it’s useless. I don’t have any reward for you right now.”

“What I said was the truth. I’m not asking for a reward.”

When she had finished packing her things up, Mu Yunyao walked out of the tent. Just as she took two steps forward, she saw Qu Mama walk over. “Greetings, Miss Mu.”

“Greetings, Qu Mama.” Mu Yunyao’s heart sank, and the smile on her face faded slightly.

“The Grand Princess Yi De heard that Miss Mu was skilled in embroidery and happened to have a dress, which she liked very much, accidentally torn by a tree branch. Thus, she sent this servant to ask Miss Mu to help repair it.”

“Alright.”

The Grand Princess Yi De’s tent was located in the center, and the surroundings were heavily guarded. Mu Yunyao had come outside of the tent and quietly waited for the pass.

Qu Mama walked in for a while before coming out and opening the tent door. “Miss Mu, please enter.”

“Thank you, Qu Mama.”

The Grand Princess Yi De sat atop it, a golden phoenix embroidered in a noble dark red palace dress. The phoenix spread its wings as it flew away, carrying with it a majestic and noble aura.

“This humble daughter, Mu Yunyao, greets Grand Princess Yi De.” Mu Yunyao respectfully saluted as the image of the phoenix from before flashed through her mind. When the Grand Princess Yi De called her over, it naturally wasn’t to repair the clothes mentioned by Qu Mama. After all, as the Grand Princess, her status was incomparably honorable. Even if she liked a set of clothes and then it’s damaged, it would be a piece of cake for her to get a person to make it again and look exactly the same. Why does she have to go through so much trouble to repair it?

“Stand up, Miss Mu. Take a seat.”

Feeling that the Grand Princess Yi De wasn’t put her in much of a difficult situation, Mu Yunyao secretly let out a breath of relief. “Many thanks to Your Highness, the Grand Princess Yi De.”

After arranging the seats, Qu Mama motioned for the servants to follow her out.

“I heard from Junyue that you’re profoundly intelligent. Did you guess the purpose I called you for today?” Grand Princess Yi De had a smile on her face, and her tone was gentle as if she had just called Mu Yunyao over just for chatting about her family.

Mu Yunyao quickly thought for a moment before slightly lifting her head, “Did the Grand Princess call me over because of His Royal Highness Yue Wang?”

Seeing that Mu Yunyao wasn’t feigning ignorance, Grand Princess Yi De was slightly satisfied. “Not bad. Yesterday when Yue Wang openly helped you out, he injured Grand Preceptor Meng’s granddaughter. Not only did he lose his demeanor as a prince, he even made enemies with Grand Preceptor Meng in the Imperial court. In my opinion, this is not a wise decision move.”

Mu Yunyao fell silent.

“Mu Yunyao, although your current identity is the granddaughter of the Su family’s Old Madam, you still do not match up to Yue Wang. Junyue can stand up for you openly and not afraid of making enemies publicly. You can see how sincere he is towards you, and then what about you towards him? Have you truly and sincerely considered for him?”

Mu Yunyao’s fingertip trembled slightly as the scene from the first time she saw Yue Wang flashed through her mind. Her emotions fluctuated for a moment, and she couldn’t suppress them even if she wanted to. “Has the Grand Princess warned me to stay away from Yue Wang with these words?”

Grand Princess Yi De sized up Mu Yunyao as her expression suddenly turned cold. “If I really had that intention, would you be willing to obediently leave?”

Mu Yunyao lowered her head, the emotions in her eyes complex. After a long while, she raised her head to look at Grand Princess Yi De, “If the Grand Princess had requested this a few days ago, I would have definitely left obediently. But today, I don’t want to do that.”

The expression on Grand Princess Yi De’s face became even colder. “You think that just because you don’t want to leave, I have no other choice?”

Mu Yunyao stood up and bowed respectfully towards the Grand Princess Yi De, then raised her head and looked over, “I know that the Grand Princess has many methods to make me leave, but I want to try. If Yue Wang has betrayed me, I will never see him again without you say anything. But if Yue Wang has not failed me, I won’t take the initiative to leave.”

The Grand Princess Yi De wrinkled her brow, a noble aura emanating from her body, causing Yunyao’s hearts to palpitate. “Have you thought about this?”

“Yes!” Mu Yunyao’s tone was firm. It was clear that last night, she was still indulging in her wild thoughts. She also thought about whether or not there would be a future for her and Yue Wang. But now, faced with the Grand Princess Yi De’s questioning, she inexplicably didn’t want to retreat. It was just like how her mother had chosen her father, even though she knew that the road ahead would be difficult. Even if she were to face a difficult situation, she was still willing to give it a try her best.

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 364

~ THE SIX PRINCESSES FANCY SU QINGWU ~ 

“Shut up!”

On the high platform, the Emperor suddenly slammed the wine glass on his hand. The power in his eyes was like a mountain, covering the entire sky as it spread out. Instantly, all the people on the field kneeled on the ground as they fearfully shouted, “Please calm down, Your Majesty!”

Only then did Meng Yanran realize what she had said. She wanted to open her mouth and beg for mercy, but she was intimidated by the Emperor’s rage. Her eyes rolled up, and she fainted. The Emperor walked down from the stage and looked at Meng Yanran as if she was looking at a dead object, “Meng Yanran was rude to the royal family, so she was sentenced to death! Meng Yu had no way to teach his daughter, and the rule of the family is not strict, so the top and the flower feathers were taken off from him. In addition, he is not allowed to be employed for five years. Even his own daughter was not taught well, so how can I be at ease and hand over the Imperial Court’s matters to you? You…”

“Your Majesty,” The Grand Princess Yi De walked down from the high platform, stopping the furious Emperor. “Your Majesty, a good banquet is about to begin, so what’s the need to be angry at a good banquet? Today all the officials and their families are all here. It’s a rare occasion that the Emperor and the ministers have fun together, so you should be happy.”

The Grand Princess Yi De looked at Yue Wang and then looked at Mu Yunyao, who was stand by the side with her head lowered. She waved to them to return.

The Emperor suppressed his anger and waved to the guards to take Meng Yanran and Meng Yu down: “A good banquet reception is almost disrupted. Don’t worry about them. Let's continue.". Let’s continue the banquet.”

Princess Yide took a look at Yue Wang and Mu Yunyao, who was standing on one side with her head down. She then waved to them to return.

Even though the Grand Princess Yi De had persuaded the Emperor, everyone was still trembling with fear, fearing that the wrong words would anger the Emperor. It wasn’t until the Emperor had lightly ordered his subjects to display their prey that he became slightly more interested. “Is Su Qingwu the winner?”

Su Qingwu hurriedly stood up and said, “It’s the grown-ups who have given way.”

“Not bad. You’ve also won first place in the past few years. This year’s prey seems to be even more numerous than the previous years. I believe that your riding and shooting skills have improved. I remember that your swordsmanship is also not bad. It’s rare to have fun today. Let’s show it.”

The eyes of Su Wenyuan and his wife, who were sitting in their seats, lit up at the same time. Previously, the Emperor was indifferent to the Su family and allowed Shen Binghuai to investigate, which made them panic all the time. Now, seeing that the Emperor still values Su Qingwu so much, they feel more at ease.

Su Qingwu took the long sword from a nearby guard, then cupped his hands and bowed towards the Emperor and the Grand Princess Yi De. “This humble subject is making a fool of himself.”

Su Qingwu was extremely proficient in swordsmanship and was able to move around as he pleased. Under the light of the night fire, the long sword in his hand was like a swimming dragon, causing silver light to shine wherever it went.

The long sword sliced through the dark night with a whistling sound. Waves of cold light and peerless sharpness were released from it. His moves sometimes were quick and slow, like thunder that had been retracted from its rage. They are like the light of the river and the sea!

The crowd was filled with amazement, all of them praising Su Qingwu for being the most talented youth in the world. He truly deserved his reputation.

The Emperor’s expression became a lot happier as well. He had tossed the unhappiness from before to the back of his mind and said, “Not bad.”

“Imperial Father,” A light voice rang out. Everyone sees that the Sixth Princess Ning Huaiyang standing up, and her eyes shining as she cupped her fists, “Imperial Father, a few days ago, I also learned a few moves from the master who taught martial arts, and I would like to compete with Lord Su.”

“You?” The Emperor smiled, then shook his head. “With your martial arts skills, don’t make things difficult for Su Qingwu.”

“Father, I am your daughter. How can you help him? I want to show him that I’m not one of those embroidered pillows.”

The Emperor doted heavily on the Sixth Princess. Seeing how persistent she was, he could only say to Su Qingwu, “Why don’t you accompany the Sixth Princess for a few more moves and then stop at once.”

“Yes.”

Mu Yunyao’s eyes were filled with smiles. She had originally thought that with Meng Yanran’s interference, she would not be able to witness this good show. She hadn’t expected that the Sixth Princess, Huaiyang, would still seek out Su Qingwu.

In the middle of the open space, Su Qingwu remained defensive and doesn’t attack. He wants to deal with the Sixth Princess. But he doesn’t expect that the other party won’t let go. The long sword in his hand is very disorganized, and he didn’t want to continue to struggle. Su Qingwu uses his cleverness to pick the sword out of the Sixth Princess's hand and bows to her, “If this humble subject has offended you. Please forgive me, Princess.”

The Sixth Princess’s eyes lit up when she saw Su Qingwu. With a blush on her face, she stomped her feet and walked to the side of the Emperor on the stage: “Imperial Father, after seeing Lord Su today, I know that the master who taught me martial arts is not good. I want to learn from Lord Su.”

“Don’t mess around. Su Qingwu is a first-tier imperial bodyguard and won’t be playing with you.”

The Sixth Princess couldn’t help but roll her eyes when she heard the Emperor’s tone, “Imperial Father, a would it be nice for Lord Su to teach me these days in the hunting grounds? There were no official matters that needed to be settled by him in the past two days, right? Besides, Lord Su had obtained the top position today, so it was likely that he was quite tired. It just so happened that while taking a break, he could teach me swordsmanship.”

The Emperor’s forehead twitched. “This …”

“Imperial Father, you doted on your daughter the most. When your daughter has mastered her martial arts, I can display my skills and defeat the three Imperial Brothers and seize the first place to let Imprial Father see.”

The Emperor couldn’t help but chuckle. “Your tone is really not small. Good, then I’ll agree. By the end of the Autumn Hunt, it’ll be a good lesson if you can kill one or two rabbits.”

The redness on the Sixth Princess’s cheeks deepened. “Imperial Father, you just wait and see. I will definitely learn well, so you won’t underestimate me.”

The banquet ended peacefully. In the end, no one mentioned Meng Yanran and Meng Yu anymore. Even their tents were arranged for other use.

Mu Yunyao slightly lowered her head and followed beside Yue Wang, arriving at an empty spot at the edge of the tent before stopping in her tracks. “Fourth Master, thank you very much for saving me today.”

Yue Wang turned his head to look at Mu Yunyao. In the darkness of the night, he could not see her expression and could only vaguely make out the outline of her eyes. Those eyes were always clear and transparent, even brighter than the stars in the sky. “The little snake on Meng Yanran’s body was put by you?”

“I just sprinkled a bit of snake luring fragrance on her clothes, but I didn’t expect it to be such a coincidence that it actually made the snake got into her clothes.”

Yue Wang couldn’t help but laugh softly. This was just like how she always did, whatever revenge she had, and it was immediately avenged: “Did you guess that it was her who had people place poisonous snakes in your tent?”

“I didn’t know before. When I was packing up, Jin Lan picked up an earpiece. It was exactly the same as the one worn by the maid next to her. I saw it once, and with a slight impression, I guessed that she was put it.”

“It turned out to be so.”

The night was dark, and Yue Wang’s voice was expressly clear. It slowly flowed into her ears as if it was able to captivate others.

Mu Yunyao slightly moved a step. Her heart was not at peace: “Fourth Master, you took action to save me today. Will it bring about trouble?”

Yue Wang lightly shook his head, afraid that Mu Yunyao wouldn’t be able to see it clearly. He then continued to explain, “There won’t be any trouble.”

Mu Yunyao fell silent. After the defenses in her heart had weakened, she deliberately overlooked many problems, the most important of which was the difference in status between her and Yue Wang.

Even if Yue Wang was not favored, he was still the prince of the Dali Dynasty. His abilities, tenacity, bearing, and magnanimity … wasn’t any weaker than the other princes. He was just like a bright pearl covered in dust. One day, his gray veil would fall off, and he would bloom with a unique grace. At that time, where would she be? Meng Yangran was right about one thing. Her background was low. No matter how much silver she earned, it wouldn’t change the fact that she was born in the countryside.
