"Since the princess isn't interested in the grilled fish I personally made, let's go inside and talk." Feng Ji smiled helplessly and gestured for them to come in.
Upon entering the room, Mu Chenshuang calmly sat down.
Feng Ji followed closely behind, and after sitting down, the arrogant smile on his face became less pronounced, and he looked at Mu Chenshuang seriously.
He kindly advised, "Even if Princess Weiyang doesn't speak, I can roughly guess the purpose of her visit."
Feng Ji appears indifferent to worldly affairs, but in reality, he still wields immense power and possesses well-informed, secretive sources. Therefore, Mu Chenshuang is not surprised at all by his words.
With her eyes calm and without a ripple, Mu Chenshuang parted her thin lips slightly and said, "Since the Prince of Xiaoyao can guess it, that's even better, it saves this princess the trouble of explaining."
As if he had already guessed that Mu Chenshuang would say this, Feng Ji said with some helplessness, "Princess, you are pregnant now, so you should be more careful in everything you do."
Mu Chenshuang remained noncommittal. She knew that what Feng Ji had said was just a prelude, and he had not yet spoken what he truly wanted to say.
As expected, Feng Ji continued, "I have already received Jun Heng's letter. Princess, you might as well wait patiently for Jun Heng a little longer."
“When Junheng reigns supreme, he will naturally come to your aid…” Feng Ji was interrupted by Mu Chenshuang before he could finish speaking.
Mu Chenshuang frowned slightly, "You, Prince Xiaoyao, are well aware that Jun Heng's situation in Xiyue Kingdom is not smooth sailing either."
"The Tianzhao Kingdom's palace is no longer the same as it used to be. Both the palace and the court are clearly in the hands of the Second Prince, Feng Moran. There is simply no time left."
Mu Chenshuang wasn't impatient; rather, she could tell from the information she had received that Feng Moran was already shrinking his power.
The palace guards are now completely under Feng Mo Ran's control. If he wants, he can launch a coup at any time. Even if the Kingdom of Zhao suddenly changes hands tomorrow, it's not impossible.
Mu Chenshuang's heavy words left Feng Ji speechless and unable to reply.
After a long while, Feng Ji smiled helplessly. He had to admit that what Mu Chenshuang said was true. In this way, even if Fu Junheng wanted to help, he was too far away to do so.
Faced with Feng Ji's silence, Mu Chenshuang's emotions gradually calmed down.
"I've come here to tell the Prince of Xiaoyao that Nan Zhi has persuaded Prime Minister Shen, who has agreed to join forces with us to reopen the case of the wrongful conviction of the Prince of Libei and demand a reinvestigation."
This news did surprise Feng Ji, making him feel somewhat unexpected, yet also somewhat expected.
It seems that this matter is truly on the verge of being decided and must be taken.
“Very well, I understand.” Feng Ji’s eyes darkened slightly, and his expression became serious and cautious. “I will hand over the letter and also stand up to ask the Emperor to reinvestigate this matter.”
Mentioning this matter, Feng Ji's eyes darkened further, and his previously gentle and approachable aura vanished, replaced by a fierce and cold expression.
Although it was only for a moment, Mu Chenshuang felt it. She always felt that Feng Ji seemed to have been waiting for this moment, and he wanted a result.
Having received Feng Ji's affirmative answer, Mu Chenshuang felt relieved and got up to take her leave.
As soon as she stood up, Feng Ji quickly called her back, then stood up as well, a carefree smile on his face, and said, "I almost forgot, there was another letter Jun Heng sent that was specifically for the princess, which he asked me to deliver on his behalf."
