Mu Ru Yue nodded. She was then led to a carriage by this person. Once they got in the carriage, Mu Ru Yue kept beating around the bush. Who was this person? But in the end, she didn't even get to know his surname.

It was like a fairy from the Moon Palace descended from the mortal world, without any sort of background.

The only thing he knew was that he was related to Bai Yu.

Along the way, Mu Ru Yue, along with the man's vague answers, went to the legendary ancient tree area. She had previously heard that the ancient tree here blossomed after many years of reincarnation.

Some were unlucky, while others were related by marriage. Coincidentally, this year happened to be the year when the ancient trees would flower. As a result, many people came to this place to see if the ancient trees here were fated to be with them.

If the person standing beside Mu Ru Yue right now was Feng Chen, she would also be very happy and have come to try her luck. It was a pity … The person beside her was a young master that even she did not know. He even had a beautiful face.

Mu Ru Yue didn't know how to describe her current complicated feelings.

When they entered the Ancient Tree District, what entered their eyes was the rows and rows of big trees. On these trees, were rows and rows of big trees, where many people had their wishes hung.

Each tree was very tall and luxuriant. Their leaves were similar to peach leaves, but they were much bigger. There were many white fruits hanging on their branches. This ancient tree could only bear fruit without blooming.

And once the fruit was bearing fruit, it would mean that the tree would not blossom.

Therefore, once a flower bloomed on an ancient tree in the Ancient Tree District, it would no longer attract anyone's attention.

The area around the ancient tree was very large. The area around it was about a hundred miles in radius and belonged to the Ancient Tree District. There were many lanterns hanging around here, illuminating every tree here. Mu Ru Yue had come along with that extremely good-looking man.

After looking around, Mu Ru Yue couldn't help but ask, "This place … What was so special about it? Bai Yu told me to come here, why is that? "

Mu Ru Yue didn't get the answer she wanted after saying that. It made her frown as she turned around. "Young master …" Mu Rong Yue was stunned as she looked at the empty spot behind her. She only had one thought in her mind, and that was that he was unlucky!

Before she could react, she had already disappeared from her sight. This person, it was as if he was playing a joke on her! Before, he brought her here with a face full of anticipation, but she didn't even know what this person's background was. She just turned around and disappeared. Furthermore, he disappeared so quickly.

Murong Yue stood there blankly. Many people walked past her, but she was still thinking exactly what that person meant. After pondering for a long time, he decided to give up in the end. Mu Ru Yue wasn't good at dealing with people like him.

He didn't know what Bai Yu's intentions were. Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Mu Ru Yue initially wanted to leave the ancient tree area. However, before he could leave, he heard whispers from the surroundings.

"I wonder if the ancient tree will blossom this year."

"That's right. Rumor has it that when the flower blooms, treasures will be passed down."

"Are you for real?"

"Really, our family worked nearby. Their old man saw with his own eyes that there was a treasure beneath this ancient tree."

Treasure?

Mu Ru Yue's gaze was bright as she looked at this ancient tree and touched a plot of land where nothing could be seen. She couldn't help but smile. That's true … The unexpected was interesting. Thinking this way, Mu Ru Yue lost her desire to head back home and prepared to continue listening to what these people were saying.

Thinking this way, Mu Ru Yue walked inside. After walking for a short distance, she saw a group of people gathered in one place. They seemed to be looking at something and were a little cautious. Very cautious.

Could it be that a treasure had bloomed on that ancient tree?

Murong Yue was extremely curious. She walked over, but just as she was about to ask, she saw a man in white clothes leaning against an ancient tree. His eyes were cold, making people feel intimidated.

Merely standing here was incompatible with everyone else. When Mu Ru Yue saw this person, she instantly became speechless.

This... Wasn't it Feng Qing?

Just as Mu Ru Yue was about to turn around and leave, the man's gaze landed on her. Mu Ru Yue, who had just raised her leg, couldn't help but head towards him. With a smile, she asked, "Why are you here?"

Feng Qing also did not expect to meet Mu Ru Yue here. He explained calmly, "Bai Yu said this place is very interesting and suggested that I take a look. However, after we arrived here, he disappeared. "

Bai Yu again?

Now that Mu Ru Yue mentioned this name again, she was extremely furious.

"I was also tricked by Bai Yu to come here because I didn't know what he wanted to do." Mu Ru Yue gritted her teeth as she spoke.

"You too?" Feng Qing was stunned. Then, as if he understood something, he smiled. This smile was like the blossoming of a pear flower. It was clear and beautiful, causing one to not be able to break his good mood.

He also hoped that this smile could last forever.

Mu Ru Yue was a little stunned. The people around him were even more so.

Ah!" I remember now, this is His Highness, the Crown Prince!

It was unknown who among the crowd said this, causing both Mu Ru Yue and Feng Qing's expression to change. Mu Ru Yue didn't care about anything else and grabbed Feng Qing's hand. "Let's go." After he finished speaking, he ran out before they could even react.

If Feng Qing stayed here, there might be even more people watching.

Feng Qing was not planning to run away to begin with. For him, being close to those people was not necessarily a bad thing. Left Right... He had come here for the sake of the people's hearts. However, when Mu Ru Yue's hand grabbed him, he didn't want to move anymore.

This person's hand was extremely soft. Although it was not very warm, it was something that he liked the most.

His heart was racing as he allowed Mu Ru Yue to pull him as he ran off. Feng Qing couldn't help but think, if she was an assassin, perhaps he wouldn't have any resentment even when she killed him, right? Of course, Mu Ru Yue didn't plan to kill Feng Qing.

After running for an unknown distance, Mu Ru Yue and Feng Qing stopped under an ancient tree with seven people hugging each other. Mu Ru Yue was panting heavily as she squatted on the ground. Feng Qing's gaze calmly landed on her body. "Why are you running like this?"

Why?

Mu Ru Yue gritted her teeth as she looked at him. "If I don't run, won't I have to watch over this place for a bunch of people? Even if His Highness was willing, who knew, would he meet someone who wanted His Highness' life next?

If anything happens to your highness, the first one who won't be able to escape will be me. After all, we were leaving the capital together. In the eyes of the people in the capital, it was for my sake that His Highness wanted to leave the capital. "

When Mu Ru Yue said this, she felt a burst of guilt in her heart. She was even guessing whether that person left the Imperial City because of her. If something really happened to him, she wouldn't be able to forgive herself.

Feng Qing didn't expect Mu Ru Yue to say such words to him. His gaze became gentler as he looked at Mu Ru Yue. He then took out a jade pendant and passed it to her.

"This is?" Mu Ru Yue looked at Feng Qing in confusion.

"What you wanted before."

When Feng Qing said this, he stuffed the jade pendant into her hands. Mu Ru Yue thought for a moment and was stunned. "Your Highness, you mean the keepsake that can be used to pass the various tests?"

Feng Qing nodded.

"Your Highness isn't …"
