Xu Ling 'er smiled and took half a step back to bow." I didn't know that Your Highness would come today. If I had known, I wouldn't have come before Your Highness. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
The woman's voice was like the chirping of orioles in an empty valley, melodious and enchanting. At this moment, Xu Ling 'er deliberately softened her voice, sounding even more humble and gentle. Mu Yunqi's heart skipped a beat, and his expression softened.
"Those who don't know are not guilty. BenGong didn't mean to miss you.”
Xu Ling 'er lowered her eyes and smiled." Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness."”
Xu Zhen's brows were tightly furrowed, and her face was flushed red from anger. However, she had no way to deal with the woman in front of her. After all, Mu Yunqi had already spoken, so she could not ignore him.
Mu Yunqi glanced sideways at Xu Zhen. He knew that she was unhappy, so he did not say anything. He just turned his gaze to the Taoist priest beside him.
"Since Daoist Priest Worriless has already calculated for this lady, I wonder if you would mind telling me the result of the calculation?”
Priest Worriless looked at Xu Ling 'er with a troubled expression. No matter what, this was a matter between the two of them. If Mu Yunqi wanted to know, he would need Xu Ling' er's permission.
When Xu Ling 'er saw the Taoist priest's gaze on her, she covered her face and smiled." Although Taoist Priest Worriless is famous, I can't believe the results of the calculations you just made.”
Mu Yunqi was stunned. He had only asked casually, but now that she had said so, it had aroused his curiosity.
He couldn't help but reevaluate the woman in front of him.
Her appearance was elegant and beautiful, unlike the rouge and powder in the palace. Her beauty was like the lilies in the mountains, making people feel very comfortable. Her pair of lively eyes rippled with seductive eyes, making one's heart and soul go there.
"If Miss Xu doesn't mind, why don't you tell me the result?”
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Xu Ling 'er's face as she turned to look at Priest Worriless. Priest Worriless understood. He stroked his beard and said with a smile,""This woman is the daughter of destiny. If you get her, you can get the world.”
Although his voice was a little old, when he slowly said this sentence, it sounded particularly powerful.
Mu Yunqi looked at her in shock. Other than the admiration in his eyes, there was something else.
Xu Ling 'er seemed to feel uncomfortable under his gaze. She lowered her eyes and explained,"Your Highness, you don't have to believe too much. I'm a weak woman to begin with. How can I be the chosen one? It was fine if His Highness took it as a joke.”
As she spoke, she curtsied." It's getting late. If Your Highness has nothing else to say, this official's daughter will take her leave first.”
As Xu Ling 'er spoke, she gradually disappeared from Mu Yunqi's sight with the help of her maidservant.
Mu Yunqi's face tensed up as he looked in the direction she disappeared. For some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity towards that woman. But now, what overwhelmed that familiar feeling was possessiveness.
Regardless of whether or not it was fake, Priest Worriless's calculations had always been very accurate.
Xu Zhenqing looked at Mu Yunqi beside her with a pale face, and panic slowly rose in her heart. She knew very well what kind of person Mu Yunqi was. Back then, he could abandon Ling Yunge for the sake of the world. Now, he would definitely be able to abandon her, the Crown Princess, for this so-called chosen one.
She would never allow such a thing to happen!
Thinking of this, Xu Zhen suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and said,"Your Highness, since this lady is the chosen one that Priest Worriless mentioned, I think that for the sake of Your Highness's grand ambition, this lady must not fall into the hands of others.”
Unfortunately, although the temple in the mountain was not big, Xu Ling 'er walked very quickly and disappeared from Mu Yunqi's sight in a short while.
He frowned slightly and looked sideways." Is there a banquet in the Prime Minister's residence tonight?"”
The attendant beside him thought for a moment. "There is indeed a banquet in the Prime Minister's residence today." Is Your Highness going over?"
Mu Yunqi nodded.
The attendant was a little embarrassed. He cupped his hands and said,"But tonight, His Highness is going to the Right Prime Minister."”As he spoke, he stole a glance at Xu Zhen." The Right Prime Minister has been feeling unwell recently. Aren't you going to visit him today, Your Highness?"”
Mu Yunqi frowned slightly and swept his gaze across Xu Zhen's face. Her expression was a little ugly.
This woman was still useful to him, but…
That so-called chosen one must not be captured by others.
He had to subdue that woman before this news spread.
When Mu Yunqi thought of this, a kind smile hung on his face. He gently grabbed Xu Zhen's hand." Beloved Consort, I think that the rumors of this chosen one will spread throughout the entire capital before tomorrow. If we let others make the first move…"
As he spoke, he deliberately left out half of his words.
However, the meaning in his words was already very obvious.
Jealousy surged in Xu Zhen's heart, but there was nothing she could do. After all, this woman was now involved in the problem of the entire zombie empire. She couldn't stop Mu Yunqi.
However, as long as that woman dared to enter the Eastern Palace. She would definitely not let her off!
As Xu Zhen thought about it, a trace of viciousness flashed across her eyes. She bowed slightly." Your Highness, just go and do your own things."”
"Okay." After Mu Yunqi sent her back, he went to the Left Prime Minister's residence alone.
Today's banquet was a private banquet of the Left Prime Minister's Estate. Mu Yunqi standing at the door at this time seemed like an uninvited guest.
However, he was the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace. When the two people guarding the door saw him, they immediately went in to report. Soon, the Left Prime Minister appeared at the door with his wife and Xu Ling 'er.
"I didn't know that Your Highness the Crown Prince had arrived.”
Mu Yunqi waved his hand and put on a wise and wise appearance, but his gaze fell on Xu Ling 'er.
She had already changed her clothes, and it was different from the one she wore in the mountains. The pink dress made her skin look even more delicate.
"I met Miss Xu in the temple today. I heard that there is a banquet in the Prime Minister's residence tonight, so BenGong came over to take a look. Will the Prime Minister blame you?"
"How could that be?" The Left Prime Minister led him into the manor.
When the people in the courtyard saw Mu Yunqi, they hurriedly bowed. The originally relaxed private banquet became somewhat reserved because of Mu Yunqi's arrival.
Xu Ling 'er sat beside the Left Prime Minister with her eyes lowered and smiled as she listened to the conversation.
Mu Yunqi looked at her, and the familiar feeling in his heart grew stronger. The figure of the person who had disappeared a long time ago gradually became clear in his heart, and it slowly overlapped with the figure of the woman in front of him.
Mu Yunqi shook his head and laughed at himself. He felt that he was really crazy. He actually connected two completely unrelated people together.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:122120183:51AM
