The Legend of the Resourceful Princess

C221 zither music as a confidant

When Mu Ru Yue heard this, she felt guilty. She really wanted to do this. However, this was no different from hiding one's identity. Instead of this, it would be better to just cut the mess. There shouldn't have been any relationship between her and Feng Qing in the first place.

"You appeared in the place I didn't want you to appear in. This... Is that also your answer? " Feng Qing looked at Mu Ru Yue and asked calmly.

Mu Ru Yue nodded without any hesitation. "Yes."

"In that case, after leaving this place, you and I have nothing to do with each other." Feng Qing stood up and said to Mu Ru Yue. Mu Ru Yue, who was already prepared to be scolded by Feng Qing, was stupefied when she heard this.

"You … "Not angry?"

"So what if I am angry? I don't want to kill you, and I don't want to see you again. " Feng Qing's attitude was indifferent, just like when they first met. It was cold, detached, and inhumane, as if he didn't care about the world. If others were to see it, they would feel ashamed of their inferiority.

"No matter what, thank you very much." Mu Ru Yue turned around and left as she spoke.

"Wait." Feng Qing called for Mu Ru Yue.

"Is Your Highness still busy?" Mu Ru Yue asked curiously. Then, Feng Qing picked up the guqin and passed it to Mu Ru Yue, saying, "I heard that your melody … It was very nice. "Can you and I say goodbye after you play that song?"

Just for this?

Mu Ru Yue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Compared to playing the zither for those people on the stage, she was more willing to play with Feng Qing. Although they could no longer be close friends, this person would not disappoint her.

As he thought about this, Mu Ru Yue lifted his skirt and sat on the ground. He placed the zither on his knee and began to play. The zither music suddenly caught off guard and resounded in his ears. Feng Qing was stunned for a moment. Then, it was as if he had fallen into the concept of a zither song.

After an unknown period of time, Feng Qing picked up the short flute that he always carried with his, but rarely took it out and started to play with it. The instant Mu Ru Yue heard the harmony, she was also shocked. This song definitely wasn't from this era. Feng Qing only listened to her melody before echoing it!

The man's tone of harmony was without any hint of aggression, just like his person. It was ethereal and indifferent. Feng Qing looked at the girl sitting in front of her. For the first time, he felt that time passed so quickly. If it was possible, he could only hope that the time in the Peach Blossom Dock was limitless.

She would not leave, so she was not the Seventh Princess. As for him … It was laughable that they had missed out on the person they wanted the most from the very beginning.

However, time was exactly like this. It would not stop for a single minute because of a person's humble request, nor would it stop for a single second because of a person's expectation. After the song ended, the sound of the zither came to an abrupt halt. Mu Ru Yue stood up, gave Feng Qing a standard monarch's official salute, then turned around and left.

Feng Qing looked at Mu Ru Yue's back for a long time without replying, but didn't stop her.

"Your Highness …" You let her go just like that? " Tao Er brought the tea tray and walked out from the main hall of the Peach Blossom Dock. Seeing that there was only Feng Qing left, she said in surprise. Feng Qing calmly looked at Tao Er and said, "Since it was a mistake, why continue?"

"Your majesty is wise." After saying that, Tao Er placed the tea tray on the side of the wooden table.

"How many people in the Eastern Palace know about this?" Feng Qing's tone was light, seemingly casual. However, the moment he said those words, Tao Er's expression changed. Sure enough, it did not flare up at the beginning, he just did not understand!

As she was thinking, Tao Er quickly kneeled on the ground. "Your Highness, please calm your anger …" It's not that I don't want to say it, it's just that I was afraid that I would make His Highness angry. But later on, I didn't know that Your Highness was doing it for this person. " Doll lowered her head and explained.

"You knew it from the beginning, right?" Feng Qing lowered his head and looked at Tao Er, who did not seem to have anything to do with his. There was not a single emotion in his phoenix eyes. Even the people around him hid the truth and didn't dare to tell him.

What sort of person was he in the eyes of the world?

In her eyes, what was it?

"Servant …" "You know your wrongs." Doll did not dare to quibble anymore. Looking at Feng Qing, he could only hope that the punishment would be lighter. However, there was no punishment from Feng Qing for a long time.

"Your Highness?" Peach looked at the silent Feng Qing with a puzzled expression.

Feng Qing said coldly, "From today onwards, no one from the Eastern Palace Clan will be left alive. They will all be chased out of the Palace. Whoever dares to use my name to deceive others will all be executed." With just one sentence, Feng Qing had completely cut off all paths of retreat for the Eastern Palace clansmen.

Normally, they would be by Feng Qing's side. Although they wouldn't be recognized by their master, they still had to be respected in the eyes of outsiders. Once they were chased out of the Eastern Palace, they would no longer be the servants of the crown prince. Then, some of them might not even be able to survive.

Although Tao Er felt wronged, she didn't dare to say anything more. After all, the people from the Eastern Palace Clan also included her. Her highness didn't start a massacre, which was already beyond her expectations. With this thought in mind, Tao Er felt lucky and said: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness."

Feng Qing didn't say anything. His eyes were still frighteningly cold. After Tao Er left, he looked at the tea tray on the wooden table. With a wave of her sleeve, all of it fell to the ground. On her exquisite face, there was a bit of anger that shouldn't have been his.

"Damn it!" Feng Qing spat out these words with his red lips.

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect that the crown prince, who was the most aloof in the eyes of others, would have the chance to say such vulgar words." "May I know whose lady provoked His Highness to such a state?" This voice came out of nowhere.

This was especially true in this quiet Peach Blossom Dock.

It was too late to conceal the rage on Feng Qing's face. When he raised his head, his eyes were filled with paleness. Standing in front of him was a white-haired man. His face was covered by a mask, making it difficult to see his appearance.

However, the engravings on the mask made everyone instantly understand. The Resurrection Lily.

"What are you doing here?" Feng Qing's eyes became even colder as he asked unkindly. When the man heard this, he did not get angry. He only took out a piece of paper and passed it to Feng Qing. "Your Majesty's secret order, please do as he says."

"I have said before, I will not act according to anyone's wishes. If royal father truly wishes to order me, why not directly come to see me!" Feng Qing said in dissatisfaction.

"Your Highness, everything His Majesty did was naturally for Your Highness' sake." If you didn't do it in accordance with this secret order, I believe … Those whom your majesty desires, will be in danger. " After speaking, the white-haired man disappeared from the Peach Blossom Dock. It was as if no one had ever been around. Strange and ethereal.

Feng Qing held the slip of paper in his hand. After a long while, he regained his usual calmness and opened the slip of paper. There were two words written on it – Murong. Seeing these words, Feng Qing smiled mockingly.

After leaving the Peach Blossom Dock, Mu Ru Yue instantly heaved a sigh of relief. Although the crown prince's attitude had exceeded her expectations, it was still the best outcome. From today onwards, there would no longer be any connection between her and Feng Qing.

The past was just a dream. Although he felt that it was a pity that he had lost his best friend, he was still glad that Feng Qing was not someone who would cause trouble without reason.

"Imperial Aunt, Imperial Aunt, why did you come to the Peach Blossom Dock again?" As Mu Ru Yue was reminiscing about her meeting with Feng Qing, she heard an anxious shout from Princess Wu You not far away. Lifting her head, she saw Princess Wuyou hurriedly running towards her.

Princess Wuyou looked at Mu Ru Yue's blank expression and sighed. "Royal sister-in-law, why didn't you wait for me before leaving by yourself?"

"There are some things that have to be done, and... Presumably, Your Highness has another appointment. " Mu Ru Yue looked at Princess Wuyou as she spoke. Hearing this, Princess Wuyou's face instantly became three parts red. "Why would imperial sister-in-law … "How did you know?"
