Chapter 160 Entering the Palace
How come I've never seen Feng Qingge treat him like this before? Every time, Feng Qingge would yell at him and call him by name, never showing any fear.
It seems that, in his memory, everyone was afraid of him, and Feng Qingge was the first person who didn't take his identity seriously.
"What else did she say?" Raising an eyebrow, Mo Linyuan showed no unusual expression.
"Young Master says, I wonder if the Regent's promise still stands? The Regent should repay the deal between you and Young Master." With his head down, Qi Quan said in a low voice. It was supposed to be a very imposing sentence, but he said it very cautiously.
"Hehe..." Interesting, so that's what it was about.
A low laugh, tinged with tiny ice crystals, sent a jolt through Qi Quan, his head drooping lower and lower. He knew it! He'd been opposed to it from the start. While curious about the deal, uttering such words in front of the Regent was a grave offense.
However, before Qi Quan could react strongly, Mo Linyuan on the other side had already nodded in agreement, "Go back and tell Feng Qingge that I will go to the palace tomorrow." And so she wished.
Qi Quan was surprised and looked up at him abruptly. Then he instantly became happy, and even his tone became relaxed. "Yes, Your Highness, this servant obeys."
"Go down." With a wave of his hand, Mo Linyuan stopped looking at him.
Qi Quan nodded hurriedly, like a chick pecking at rice, then gave a deep bow, turned and left.
After he walked out of the vast Regent's Palace, he breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that he had escaped a calamity.
After returning and truthfully reporting the news to Feng Qingge, his mission was finally complete.
Looking at Feng Qingge, after hearing the news, a huge weight was lifted from her heart, and her lips, which had been flat, curved into a smile again. Tomorrow, as long as Mo Linyuan is there, everything will be fine.
The next day, following the imperial decree, Feng Qingge went to the palace early in the morning. When she entered the imperial study, she found that the Prince of Huainan was also there. Upon seeing him, she suddenly realized that her guess was correct.
As if facing a formidable enemy, a solemn expression appeared on his face. He stepped inside, bowed, and knelt down, saying, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
"Rise." The young emperor was still very immature; how mature could an eleven-year-old child be? Even his voice was very childish.
She stood up, lowered her eyes, and stood aside, not looking at anyone.
"Qingge, you've arrived." King Chu An of Huainan smiled, looking at Feng Qingge with a kind expression that seemed to be both scrutiny and satisfaction.
However, Feng Qingge didn't look up, so she didn't see his expression. She simply nodded in response to his words.
She hated two kinds of people the most in her life: those who were more arrogant than her and those who were self-righteous. The Prince of Huainan happened to be the latter. She had no intention of marrying his daughter, let alone becoming his son-in-law. This Prince of Huainan thought his family background was superior and everyone wanted to be his son-in-law, but she, Feng Qingge, disdained such a thing. Even if she were a man, she would not agree to it.
"Feng Qingge, I heard from the Prince of Huainan that you unintentionally saved Princess Chu Linghan in the capital? Is that true?" Although the young emperor is young, he has great potential, which is worthy of Mo Linyuan's many years of cultivation.
Feng Qingge's eyes flickered slightly, she raised an eyebrow, and smiled faintly. Was she going to play the emotional card? "Your Majesty, it is indeed true, but this young master was merely acting out of a sense of justice." She looked up at the young emperor, her previous solemnity and unease completely gone, replaced by her usual frivolousness.
