Mu Lingjiu is not dead!
He clearly sent people to kill Mu Lingjiu, but she was fine!
The Second Prince's affairs were already enough to worry him, and now there was the unkillable Mu Lingjiu.
The King of Chu instantly became irritable and furious, and everyone standing next to him could feel his strong pressure.
Mu Lingjiu walked up to the registrar as if he was completely unaware.
"Name, how many?"
Mu Lingjiu lowered his eyelids slightly and replied calmly, "Mu Lingjiu. I don't have any beast crystals."
When the registrar heard that there were no beast crystals, he thought it was normal and he even looked at Mu Lingjiu with pity.
The former genius and the second prince's wife is now just a waste. It is not easy for her to walk out of the hunting forest.
The registrar shook his head, finished writing, and moved on to the next person. Mu Lingjiu naturally walked to the side.
No one from the Beast Tribe went to recognize Mu Lingjiu. This was what they had agreed upon, to pretend not to know him.
Mu Linghuang, who was sitting next to Emperor Chu, glanced sideways at Chu Junheng and said softly in a low voice, "Didn't my husband say that Mu Lingjiu couldn't get out? What's going on now?"
Chu Junheng frowned, feeling a bit resentful because of the fact that Mu Linghuang had abandoned him and ran away alone.
If it was Mu Lingjiu, she would never abandon him. Every time they went out, Mu Lingjiu always played the role of guardian, fearing that he would feel uncomfortable. Thinking of this, he became more and more irritated.
"I don't know about this, ask my father."
Mu Linghuang pursed her lips. How could she dare to question Emperor Chu?
The Second Prince has been treating her very badly recently, and Mu Linghuang has tried to ease the relationship, but with little effect.
Her gaze fell on Mu Lingjiu again, and she smiled and joked.
"Third sister went to a hunting competition and didn't bring anything with her. If someone didn't know you, they would think you were hiding somewhere."
This statement is already full of sarcasm.
Mu Lingjiu turned his head and glanced at her indifferently.
"That's better than quitting midway, right?"
puff--
Cat Ears and Meteor couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Then there were snickers all around.
The second prince, the favorite to win the throne, and Mu Linghuang, the darling of destiny, were beaten and forced to withdraw from the competition, and now they are being humiliated by a loser. This is a huge joke!
Mu Linghuang has always been admired by everyone as a darling of heaven, but this is the first time she has been so embarrassed in front of everyone. Her face flushed and she tried hard to look calm.
"Third sister, I care about you, why don't you know what's good for you?"
"I'm sure everyone here knows what my relationship with you is, so there's no need to be hypocritical. If you want to care about something, you should care about your own sister. Is Mu Feng'er out yet?"
After saying this, Mu Linghuang remembered that Mu Feng'er had not come out yet.
After she went out, she thought Mu Feng'er must have found a place to hide, so she didn't care about Mu Feng'er's situation.
After hearing what Mu Lingjiu said, Mu Linghuang realized that Mu Feng'er had not come out yet.
"What happened to Feng'er? Do you know?"
Mu Lingjiu looked innocent. "The Second Prince's wife also said that I was hiding. How did I know?"
Mu Linghuang was speechless for a moment.
She quickly said to the King of Chu:
"Father, please help me find Feng'er. Feng'er is my sister from the same mother. If anything happens to her..."
The King of Chu waved his hand and ordered people to go look for him.
Soon a search team entered the forest.
Mu Linghuang's mood became much calmer, and she glanced at Mu Lingjiu with pride.
"Feng'er is my sister. I have the help of my father, so everything will be fine."
Mu Lingjiu ignored Mu Linghuang, knowing that Mu Linghuang was secretly showing off that she was married to the second prince, but she remained unmoved.
The eldest prince Chu Junbai waved to her not far away.
"Lingjiu, I didn't see you in the forest earlier. Where were you hiding?"
Mu Lingjiu raised her eyes to look at the eldest prince and replied calmly, "A corner."
Chu Junbai smiled gently, "I'm glad you're okay. I picked some herbs in the forest and will have them delivered to your house later. Perhaps they will help you."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Mu Lingjiu knew that Chu Junbai was helping her, letting everyone know that not all members of the royal family disliked her and giving her a way to survive. She accepted this kindness.
The Second Prince frowned unhappily, "Brother, does a loser need medicinal herbs? Don't waste good things."
"Lingjiu was a genius in the past. It would be best if these herbs are useful to her. If they are not, it won't be a waste." Chu Junbai was very gentle.
Comparing the two princes, people around them increasingly felt that the eldest prince was a gentle and generous person, while the second prince had a petty and family-oriented air.
Even after breaking off the engagement, he still wants to hold the girl down, as if he wants to force her to death before he feels comfortable.
Of course, no one could influence Emperor Chu's thinking. The more this happened, the more Emperor Chu felt that the eldest prince was confused.
Mu Lingjiu is an existence that brings shame to the royal family and should have died long ago!
Emperor Chu glanced at Mu Lingjiu and suddenly had an idea in his mind.
"Mu Lingjiu, you're not young anymore. You should be seventeen at the beginning of the year, right? Your mother is no longer with us. As your uncle, I should consider your marriage."
Mu Lingjiu immediately refused when she heard that this was not a good idea.
"Lingjiu's marriage is decided by my uncle."
"Please listen to me first." The Emperor of Chu spoke gently, but his eyes were full of calculation. "I know what you are thinking. You like Heng'er, but Heng'er, as a prince, cannot marry you who has been deposed. Now, I allow you to marry Heng'er as a concubine. What do you think?"
Mu Lingjiu laughed out of anger. The Emperor Chu had a good idea. He must have thought of this plan a long time ago.
He had previously been concerned about Mu Linghuang possibly entering the Talent Hall, fearing she would be unhappy. Now that he knew she hadn't completed her mission at the Talent Hall, he stopped pretending.
The calculation is quite good.
Mu Linghuang's face was also very ugly at this time. She also understood the royal family.
She looked at the second prince, who disliked Mu Lingjiu. As long as the second prince objected, the arranged marriage would not happen.
However, the Second Prince avoided Mu Linghuang's sight and did not refute the Emperor's proposal. There seemed to be some expectation in his eyes.
Mu Linghuang took a deep breath, hesitating whether to say something, and then she saw Mu Lingjiu's upturned expression.
This expression instantly irritated Mu Linghuang. She felt that Mu Lingjiu was just provoking her.
So Mu Linghuang immediately said, "Your Majesty, I just got married to the Second Prince. Can you put the matter of taking a concubine on hold for now?"
Emperor Chu glanced at Mu Linghuang with some displeasure.
This Mu Linghuang is really ungrateful. He is making plans for the Second Prince, but she is here to stop him.
Mu Linghuang stared at the pressure and continued, "What's more, the Second Prince and Third Sister already have a bad relationship. If they were to marry at this time, they might become a couple of enemies. It would be better to let Third Sister marry someone else."
