"Second Prince, let Luo Yan stay and help you." Ji Luo Yan, who was a little carried away with her emotions, hurriedly spoke up, but as soon as she said it, she met Feng Mo Ran's gaze and suddenly felt flustered and regretful.

She quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at Feng Moran's dangerous, scrutinizing, and oppressive gaze.

Ji Luoyan clenched her hands, which were hanging by her sides, in regret. She was too hasty. How could she have wanted to get closer to Feng Moran as soon as she heard him call her name?

Feng Mo Ran narrowed his eyes as he looked at Ji Luo Yan, who had lowered her head, but the danger in his eyes quickly disappeared. He said casually, "If there is anything I need you for in the future, Luo Yan, I will ask you to come."

Upon hearing this, Ji Luoyan, who had been nervous, immediately breathed a sigh of relief and was also somewhat relieved that Feng Mo Ran really didn't dislike her because of this.

This time, without Feng Moran having to speak, Ji Luoyan took the initiative to say, "Then Luoyan will take her leave. I wish the Second Prince a speedy mastery of his skills and that he will reach the pinnacle of his abilities."

"Thank you for your kind words." Feng Mo Ran glanced at Ji Luo Yan indifferently, watched her leave the main hall, and said nothing more.

Ji Luoyan was still blushing and her heart was pounding when she left the main hall. After walking away from Yun Xiu, she couldn't help but press her hand to her chest. She felt a long-lost flutter in her heart. She seemed to have really fallen in love with Feng Moran.

After Ji Luoyan walked away, Yun Xiu came in. Looking at Feng Mo Ran's expressionless face, he hesitated, "Second Prince, what's wrong with Madam Qi...?"

He had been standing guard outside, not far away, and could have heard everything Ji Luoyan said. At that distance, it could be considered that Feng Mo Ran tacitly allowed him to hear the conversation and didn't mind him bringing it up.

Feng Mo Ran indeed appeared indifferent, his deep eyes showing no emotional fluctuations. "Her relationship with Qi Ming Sen has long been a sham. She is also a person of great value to this prince, so why not take advantage of her?"

Yun Xiu understood. He had originally thought that Feng Moran, who had never shown any affection, had really fallen for Ji Luoyan. It seemed that he was just using her. He simply catered to Ji Luoyan's preferences.

"If you understand, then you can leave." Feng Mo Ran said calmly. After Yun Xiu accepted the order and left, he opened the medicine bottle that Ji Luo Yan had brought, took out a pill and put it in his mouth. Then he straightened his posture, sat up straight, and began to meditate to enhance his internal strength.

Because the city king was suddenly demoted, Feng Xilan took over the power from him, and the seemingly precarious balance in the court was suddenly broken.

When Lord Mu returned to his residence, Mu Chenshuang also learned of this matter.

When she learned from Lord Mu what he had said in court that day, she couldn't help but worry.

“Father, in this way, what you said in court has clearly stated your position. I'm afraid the Second Prince Feng Mo Ran will no longer have any intention of winning us over. I'm afraid he will really target us next. Our situation is very dangerous.”

Mu Chenshuang's eyes darkened. She worried that soon Feng Mozhan would find an excuse to have the Emperor take back the military power from Lord Mu. At that time, without military power, their Jingbian Marquis's Mansion would truly become fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others.

Lord Mu understood the implications, and he was naturally deeply worried and concerned.

But seeing how worried Mu Chenshuang was, as if she was afraid that she still wanted to use Xie Changqing's case to attract those people's attention, he quickly comforted her.
