She, the third young master of the Feng family, disguised herself as a man due to her extraordinary eyes.
He, the current Prince Regent, held immense power, controlling everything with a turn...
Chapter 170 Obstruction
Meanwhile, Mo Linyuan had already stepped off the carriage and headed towards the gate of the Prime Minister's residence.
Only one servant remained at the gate. Seeing that the person who had gone to report had not yet returned, he trembled and did not know what to do.
Just as Mo Linyuan was getting closer, the servant turned around and buried his head in the door, pretending that he was not there.
However, the next moment, a familiar voice came from inside the mansion gate, "The Regent has arrived. Feng Cang has failed to greet you properly. Please forgive me, Your Highness." To the servant, this voice was a lifesaver.
So the servant slowly moved around and turned back, then followed another servant to the side, where they knelt down to welcome the Regent.
"Prime Minister Feng?" Mo Linyuan was clearly surprised. He usually came here often and went straight into the mansion. This time, Feng Cang's demeanor seemed a little different.
As expected, Mo Linyuan guessed correctly. After Feng Cang bowed, he asked, "I wonder if Your Highness has come to see Qingge?"
Mo Linyuan nodded, but he was blocked at the gate of the mansion and could not say anything.
"It's like this, Your Highness, Qingge has been confined to her quarters. I'm afraid she can't help with Your Highness's matters." Feng Cang smiled, refusing Mo Linyuan's unspoken words with a few simple words.
"Oh? Why is that?" Seemingly intrigued, Mo Linyuan withdrew his imposing aura, put his hands behind his back, and asked with feigned curiosity.
"This..." Feng Cang raised his eyes and glanced at Mo Linyuan, seemingly somewhat troubled.
"Please speak, Prime Minister, there's no need to make things difficult for you." His eyebrows were raised, and his cold, hard features remained expressionless, still carrying an air of indifference.
Having received his permission, Feng Cang said, "Your Highness is surely aware of the rumors circulating these past two days. I am not talented, and this old minister only wishes for Qingge to marry and have children in the future, living a normal life. I am afraid she cannot be of any help to Your Highness." Feng Cang could lie through his teeth without batting an eye.
Mo Linyuan's expression remained unchanged, but only Hei Ming behind him could see clearly that just as Prime Minister Feng was telling the Third Young Master Feng to get married and have children, his hands behind his back suddenly tightened.
"That's to be expected." When it comes to the ability to lie through one's teeth, Mo Linyuan is second to none.
"Therefore, Your Highness, please return." Feng Cang cupped his hands in farewell. He had already said so much, and he thought that with Mo Linyuan's intelligence, he would know how to avoid suspicion. After all, he was the regent of the country, and his words and actions represented the great Yan.
Mo Linyuan's lips moved slightly, but he finally sighed and said slowly, "In that case, I will not bother you any longer."
Feng Cang was delighted, and then his voice rose slightly, "Respectfully seeing off Your Highness." As long as the two were not allowed to meet, this trouble would not arise again. Moreover, there was Qingge's identity, which was the biggest reason why their Feng family wanted to avoid suspicion from the royal family.
Mo Linyuan was helpless. Feng Cang had made it so clear that he didn't want him to see Feng Qingge. Although Feng Cang couldn't stop him if he really wanted to go in, Feng Cang was right. Feng Qingge was a man and would eventually have other things to do with her.
"However, Prime Minister Feng is mistaken in one thing. The Third Young Master is not incompetent; he is simply wise in disguise. The Prime Minister has misjudged him."
Before leaving, Mo Linyuan said something that left Feng Cang somewhat puzzled, but no matter what, it was good that he was gone.
