Rong Qi thought for a moment and then asked, "How long do you plan to stay here?"
Mu Weiliang: "After Mu Xinyan gets married."
"That means there are still two months left. Do you know who that prince who is with you is?"
Mu Weiliang glanced at Feng Qinghuang, and only after seeing her nod did she tell Rong Qi, "Mu Yanzheng."
"It's him!"
Mu Weiliang nodded.
Feng Qinghuang: "Aqi, you know him."
Rong Qi nodded: "I've heard of him. This person's talent and strategy are no less than that of the Crown Prince. If it weren't for his background, the position of Crown Prince would probably be his."
After listening to Rong Qi's words, Feng Qinghuang turned to Mu Weiliang. She saw Mu Weiliang nod.
"Yes, if I am not the Empress's son, then he is His Highness the Crown Prince."
When Mu Weiliang uttered those words, it seemed as if she were reminiscing, or perhaps expressing a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing both feelings and reflections).
Feng Qinghuang: "Third Senior Brother, are you going to stay at the post station for the next two months?"
Mu Weiliang curled her lips: "What, does Little Phoenix want me to stay at your house? That's not appropriate!"
Feng Qinghuang: "What's wrong with that... Oh right, you are the Crown Prince of Tianzhu Kingdom, living in the Fengwang Mansion is indeed inappropriate. Don't let it lead to your father being accused of treason, that would be a huge loss."
Rong Qi looked at her with amusement: "How could Jiao Jiao so easily utter the words 'treason'?"
"Can't we say those two words? It's not like we're really plotting a rebellion."
Rong Qi shook his head: "If this were an ordinary family, they would probably give her a severe beating, but Jiao Jiao said that nothing happened."
Mu Weiliang: "Tsk... Jiaojiao... Aqi... I got goosebumps just hearing that. Okay, I'm not going to say anymore. I've been out for a long time, and if I stay any longer, people will inevitably become suspicious."
Feng Qinghuang nodded: "Then, Third Senior Brother, come find me at Dark Night Pavilion later."
"Okay." Mu Weiliang left behind a single word and disappeared.
Seeing that the person had already left, Rong Qi prepared to say goodbye to Jiao Jiao. He needed to go to the palace first to inform his uncle so that he could make preparations.
Rong Qi kissed her: "Jiaojiao, get some rest. I still need to see my uncle."
Feng Qinghuang nodded: "After Aqi goes to the palace, she should go to bed early too."
After Feng Qinghuang finished speaking, she gave Rong Qi a big kiss.
After Rong Qi left, Feng Qinghuang stretched and turned to go back into her room.

At this moment, only the uncle and nephew were in the imperial study. Rong Yuan looked at Rong Qi, who was sitting below him, and recalled what Rong Qi had just said to him.
A moment later: "Aqi, are you saying that Mu Yanzheng from Tianzhu Kingdom, who is as famous as His Highness the Crown Prince, also secretly came to the capital of Qinglong Kingdom, and for a different purpose?"
Rong Qi nodded: "I just told Uncle about the old emperor's thoughts. Uncle should still be on guard. As for Mu Yanzheng, I will send someone to secretly investigate and find out his exact location. Once we find him, I will have someone follow him to see what he is up to, just in case."
"Yes, Uncle will be careful. Aqi should also be careful. Since Mu Yanzheng dared to come, he must have a contact point in our capital. We must not alert him."
Rong Qi nodded: "Don't worry, Uncle."
Rong Yuan sighed: "We also need to keep an eye on the third brother. Since the third brother is trying so hard to win over Mu Xinyan, he will definitely try to win over some of the forces in Tianzhu Kingdom. If Mu Weiliang ignores him, and the third brother finds out that Mu Yanzheng is also here, he will definitely try to contact him."
Rong Qi hummed in agreement.
This matter is indeed quite tricky. Rong Mian's mind is unsettled right now, so he can't make a move. If Rong Mian is determined to kill him, then he doesn't need to hold back.
If Rong Mian simply wanted the throne and obtained it through his own means, without involving any innocent people, then he wouldn't get involved. After all, he understood Rong Xi's intentions.
Rong Yuan looked at Rong Qi seriously: "Qi, if the third brother really does something that offends heaven and man, you don't need to worry about me. If he still has a little conscience, spare his life."
"Uncle, don't worry, there's still time. Right now, it's just our speculation. Once we find the person, we'll find out the truth. We'll do everything we can to stop Rong Mian."
Rong Yuan nodded: "Okay, I will arrange everything at the post station."
Rong Qi: "Alright, Uncle, get some rest. Don't bother yourself. You look quite haggard these past few days. Let Auntie give you a head massage."
The solemn atmosphere in the Imperial Study was suddenly broken.
Rong Yuan glared at him: "You brat, we were just talking about serious matters, how come you suddenly changed your mind so quickly?"
Rong Qi smiled and said, "It's because I don't want you to worry too much. Only with your aunt can you relax a lot."
"That's right, just like you were with that girl, hmph."
When Rong Qi heard him mention Jiao Jiao, he quickly got up and walked out, saying, "I'm leaving now, I'm not talking to you anymore."
Rong Yuan: "Hey...you brat, you just leave like that, without even a word! Really!"
After the figures disappeared from sight, Rong Yuan sat on the dragon throne and sighed alone.
