Chapter 40 Sending her back



Fu Junheng stood with his hands behind his back in front of the fence, gazing into the distance.

From the pavilion on the Moon Landing Tower, one can see the twinkling lights on the streets outside the palace.

Today is the emperor's birthday. The curfew has been lifted, and at 7 PM, all people can enjoy fireworks together to celebrate and pray for the emperor's well-being.

"I think this is the best place to watch fireworks."

Mu Chenshuang replied, "From a high vantage point, one can see beauty that ordinary people cannot. If one is accompanied by a good man, one can better appreciate the splendor of the world. Prince Junheng can come with his good man later. But I have urgent business to attend to and hope that Prince Junheng will escort me back."

Suddenly.

Fu Junheng turned his head and stared at her.

Even through the eye bags, Mu Chenshuang could feel the chilling coldness in those eyes.

She had already put it very tactfully, even with a hint of blessing, so why was he so averse to anyone mentioning this?

It seems best not to mention it again.

"The Crown Princess seems to have misunderstood something."

"Um?"

Mu Chenshuang glanced at him with a puzzled look, staring at Fu Junheng's cold and stern face.

Fu Junheng didn't offer any further explanation. He then unbuttoned his coat, handed it to Mu Chenshuang, and said in a deep voice, "The Crown Princess is pregnant now and should not be exposed to the cold. Wear this, and I will escort you back."

Mu Chenshuang glanced at it, then reached out and took it. "Thank you."

now.

Outside the gate of Qiuwu Palace.

"Third Miss, the Crown Princess is resting now and it is not convenient to disturb her."

Mu Yazhi took a step closer, glaring at Linglong, "What time is it now? The fireworks display is about to start, and my sister is still resting. You, a servant, didn't even inform her. If you are late, and the Crown Princess is late, won't my sister be rumored to be arrogant and conceited, daring to be late for His Majesty's birthday fireworks display, not taking His Majesty seriously?"

The forceful questioning made Linglong tremble.

"Get out of the way!"

Mu Yazhi reached out and pushed Linglong away.

Linglong quickly stepped back, spreading her arms to block Mu Yazhi. "Third Miss, the Crown Princess will certainly not be late. I hope you will not disturb the Crown Princess's rest."

Snap!

Mu Yazhi raised her hand and slapped Linglong across the face.

"I think you're a vicious maid who deliberately didn't announce the time, causing the Crown Princess to miss it. Get out of my way!"

Linglong stood still.

"Third Miss, Linglong was merely following the Crown Princess's orders and dared not harbor any malicious intent."

The more Linglong blocked the way, the more certain Mu Yazhi became that something was amiss. She wanted to see if Mu Chenshuang was actually inside.

"You two, pull this lowly servant away from me," he ordered coldly.

Then.

Upon hearing the order, Mu Yazhi's two maids stepped forward to pull Linglong away.

"What's all this commotion about?"

A deep, powerful voice rang out, carrying an awe-inspiring authority.

Mu Yazhi's arrogant demeanor was instantly suppressed. Upon seeing the person who had arrived, she hurriedly bowed and said, "This humble woman, Mu Yazhi, greets the Prince of Xiaoyao."

His voice trembled slightly, but it was more of an overwhelming excitement.

This was the first time she had met Feng Ji so closely, and she was determined to leave a good impression on him.

"The Carefree Prince..." Mu Yazhi was about to say something to him.

"Don't you know that the Crown Princess is resting here? You have disturbed her. What is your punishment?!" Cold and stern words interrupted her.

Mu Yazhi was startled and quickly explained, "I am the Crown Princess's younger sister. The fireworks display is about to begin, and I haven't seen my sister come out yet. I was afraid she would be late, so I came to inform her. But this maid kept blocking me. I was just worried that this maid was trying to frame my sister and that she would be late and suffer from gossip."

She hated Mu Chenshuang to the core.

It's such a coincidence that the Prince of Xiaoyao suddenly appeared here. How could it be a coincidence? Just think of how he protected her in the main hall.

What right does this bitch have?

She was determined to make Mu Chenshuang suffer a terrible death.
