Feng Mo Ran held the wine glass in her hand, swirling it around, her gaze fixed on the swirling liquid inside. Her phoenix eyes were deep and knowing: "Fu Jun Heng did this because there is a spiritual spring pool in the capital city."
Upon hearing this, Yun Xiu understood what was going on and asked, "Indeed, I've heard that there's a spiritual spring in the capital city that can strengthen the body and enhance internal strength."
“Indeed, it is located in Yaoguang Residence. Although Fu Junheng is His Majesty’s nephew, the place is not given to him for nothing.”
Yun Xiu asked in confusion, "Does what the Second Prince means by saying that Crown Prince Junheng stayed in the capital because of this spiritual spring?"
"Fu Junheng has a kind of toxin in his body. He was saved by the Valley Master of Qianjue Valley when he was born and grew up in Qianjue Valley. He cultivated the unique divine skills and secret techniques of Qianjue Valley and managed to suppress the toxin in his body. However, the toxin is hidden in his body and its power will increase over time."
Upon hearing this, Yun Xiu was taken aback. "So, Crown Prince Junheng needs the spiritual spring of Yaoguang Residence to expel the toxins from his body. His unusual hair color is due to poisoning."
"indeed!"
"However, I've heard that Princess Weiyang is a skilled physician, capable of bringing the Empress Dowager back to life. It seems that Princess Weiyang must have devoted a lot of effort to Crown Prince Junheng. I wonder if this is the reason why Crown Prince Junheng said he wanted to take Princess Weiyang away."
Feng Mo Ran's phoenix eyes were deep, and a faint smile always played at the corners of his lips as he said softly, "Who knows!"
"So, is it really because of the Spirit Spring that Crown Prince Junheng stayed in the capital?"
"That's not necessarily true, but we'll soon find out whether Fu Junheng has any spies in the palace."
Yun Xiu stared at Feng Mo Ran, seemingly guessing something, "Could it be the Marquis's residence..."
Lord Mu is currently in a precarious situation, and given how much Fu Junheng cares about Mu Chenshuang, he certainly won't stand idly by.
Feng Mo Ran didn't explain further, only smiled faintly and remained silent.
"Let's hold back for now and wait for the right opportunity."
"yes."
Inside the Marquis's residence.
Mu Chenshuang sat in the study, and after writing the last character on the Xuan paper with a brush, she withdrew her hand and placed the brush on the paper.
She stared silently at the characters on the rice paper, her eyes growing more profound.
Just as she was about to get up, a commotion came from outside the door. She looked up and saw the study door being pushed open. Then, a silver-haired man in blue walked steadily toward her. The dim candlelight illuminated his handsome face, making it appear both hazy and profound.
He walked straight toward Mu Chenshuang with his hands behind his back.
Mu Chenshuang looked at him, and she was already used to his sudden arrival and was not very surprised.
Fu Junheng walked around the desk to her and said gently, "You haven't rested yet?"
Mu Chenshuang looked up at him and asked, "What are you doing here at this time?"
Fu Junheng reached out and handed a bunch of peach blossoms to Mu Chenshuang. A faint fragrance wafted over, and the pink petals were delicate and beautiful. She glanced at them, then reached out her slender fingers to take them. "Don't tell me you came here at this time just to give me flowers."
She spoke in an exceptionally gentle voice.
Fu Junheng reached out and pulled the woman into his arms, his golden pupils reflecting her image. A smile played on his lips. "Do you like it?"
Mu Chenshuang held the flower to her nose and smelled it. "I like it. Did you pick it from the mountain?"
The peach trees at the foot of the mountain have already blossomed and borne fruit.
Fu Junheng lowered his head and leaned close to hers, forehead to forehead, and explained, "After you left today, I went to the temple."
Mu Chenshuang raised her eyes, "What are you going to the temple for?"
"I drew a fortune stick, hoping to find out if I can successfully lead you away."
Mu Chenshuang's pupils dilated slightly. "What was the result?"
"A great draw!"
"Really! I thought it was a very auspicious sign."
"For me, a 50% chance is the highest probability!"
Mu Chenshuang lowered her eyes and said nothing.
Fu Junheng glanced at her handwriting and said softly, "Attain emptiness and guard your essence, return to your root."
Immediately following this was the character “道” (Dao).
“Things that conform to the Way of Heaven will surely last, so what are you trying to say by writing this sentence, Shuang’er?” Fu Junheng turned his gaze back to Mu Chenshuang and asked.
Mu Chenshuang looked up at him and asked, "What do you think I meant by that?"
"If I'm not mistaken, Shuang'er, are you referring to His Majesty, or perhaps yourself?"
Mu Chenshuang chuckled lightly, "She's probably talking about herself!"
Fu Junheng tightened his grip on the woman's arm, looking at her with exceptional determination. "Whether it's someone else you're talking about or yourself, whatever you want, I will help you."
Mu Chenshuang looked at him and asked, "Are you telling the truth?"
"real!"
Their eyes met, and they remained silent for a long while.
Mu Chenshuang said, "There's something I'd like you to help me with."
"you say!"
"I want a map of the military fortresses in Yandang Mountain."
The words were spoken.
Fu Junheng's face darkened. "You want to investigate the Prince of Libei?"
