Murong Qiqi didn't expect it to end like this. She felt a little regretful. According to her plan, she should have let them stay in the water for a while longer. Unfortunately, Cheng Yaojin came out of nowhere.
In the eyes of others, Murong Qiqi's expression seemed to be 'petrified'. Yu Shishi glanced at Murong Qiqi. Seeing her like this, she lightly snorted. In the end, she was useless. She was frightened just like that.
Murong Qiqi saw Yu Shishi's disdainful look. Underestimating the enemy was the beginning of failure. This was what her godfather had taught her. Now Yu Shishi was making this mistake.
But it was good for them to misunderstand! She didn't have time to fight with these women. If she had the time, she might as well study the 'Number One Manor in the World'. When the time came, she could become the owner of the manor. That would be great.
As for that person just now, it was the Fifth Prince, Wanyan Kang. No wonder he called her an 'ugly monster'.
It was said that the Fifth Prince of Beizhou loved beautiful things and beautiful people. All the ordinary and plain people were ugly in his eyes. Not to mention that Murong Qiqi's current appearance was only delicate and pretty. Naturally, Wanyan Kang classified her as an 'ugly monster'. This prince was an oddity in the Beizhou royal family.
What happened by the Sun and Moon Lake was quickly reported to Taiji Palace. As soon as he heard that Murong Qiqi was there, Feng Cang rushed over without saying anything to Wanyan Lie.
Seeing Feng Cang like that, Empress Li Bing was even more certain of her guess. This Southern Lin King really fell in love with that Princess. Otherwise, why would he be so preoccupied with something else after Murong Qiqi left? Now that he encountered a problem, his worry seemed to be real.
It seemed like the saying 'heroes have a weakness for beauties' was true. Although Murong Qiqi wasn't a beauty, beauty was in the eye of the beholder. In Feng Cang's eyes, Murong Qiqi was thousands of times better than beauty.
It seemed like things were going to be easy. The Old Mistress definitely couldn't tolerate Murong Qiqi. If she could help and let Feng Cang win the beauty, maybe Feng Cang would help Wanyan Hong consolidate the throne.
This man, once he was determined to do something, he would definitely do it. Rather than letting him rely on his own ability to achieve his wish, it was better to sell him a favor. When the time came, it would be easier for him to raise conditions.
The Crown Princess was also by Sun Moon Lake. Seeing Feng Cang leave, Wanyan Hong also hurried over. He wouldn't let Feng Cang have the chance to be alone with Yu Shishi. Even if he didn't like this woman, she was his, so he couldn't let anyone else touch her. Even if he destroyed her, it would be his.
By the time Feng Cang arrived, Murong Qiqi and the rest had already moved to the nearest Orchid Hall. Wanyan Baozhu and Mu Yudie were soaking in the warm water while Murong Qiqi and Yu Shishi were waiting outside.
With such a thing happening, Yu Shishi was a little anxious. What kind of excuse should she find to absolve herself? After all, she was the Crown Princess and the eldest among them. Concubine De had repeatedly reminded her to keep an eye on them. She didn't expect the Princess and the Prime Minister's granddaughter to fall into the water. What should she do?
Although the Prime Minister supported the Second Prince, Wanyan Yi, he still had to act respectfully. If people said that she, the Crown Princess, was deliberately looking for an opportunity to mess with Mu Yudie, she wouldn't be able to explain herself.
After marrying into the Royal Family for so many years, she had seen many things that turned black and white upside down. As long as it was a political issue, even if it was a sesame seed, it would eventually be exaggerated to an immeasurable extent. Now, Yu Shishi no longer had the mood to laugh at Murong Qiqi. She was worried that today's matter would cause a misunderstanding with the Prime Minister and affect Wanyan Hong's' great cause '.
Murong Qiqi pretended not to see Yu Shishi's nervousness. She lowered her head and played with her fingers. Now you know how to be worried and afraid? What were you doing just now? Anyway, this matter had nothing to do with Murong Qiqi. All she had to do was to watch the show.
Murong Qiqi's playing with her fingers attracted Wanyan Kang's attention.
Wanyan Kang was already surprised that Murong Qiqi didn't cry when he called her 'ugly freak'. In his memory, as long as it was a girl, if they heard someone calling them ugly, even if they didn't cry, they would still feel sullen. But this little girl acted as if she didn't hear it. How amusing!
This was the first time Wanyan Kang saw such a 'special' girl, so he followed her to the Orchid Hall. Seeing Murong Qiqi playing with her fingers, he also came to her side to watch her play. With one look, Wanyan Kang's eyes could no longer move away. This person was an 'ugly freak', so why were her hands so beautiful?
"Hey, ugly freak, your hands are quite beautiful!"
Wanyan Kang was only seventeen or eighteen years old. He wore a silver robe and had thin eyes and long eyebrows. He looked somewhat similar to Wanyan Hong, but he didn't have the gloominess of Wanyan Hong. Instead, he was more handsome, cynical, and noble. Every movement he made had a hint of naughtiness. Coupled with the naughty smile on his face, one look and you could tell that he was a prince who was spoiled.
"Really?" Murong Qiqi raised her head and smiled sweetly, "Someone once said that!"
"Oh? Who was it? " Seeing that someone had the same 'aesthetic standards' as him, Wanyan Kang's interest was immediately piqued. He wanted to get to know that person and compare their understanding of 'beauty'.
"It's —" Before Murong Qiqi could finish, she fell into a familiar embrace. Beside her, Wanyan Kang was sent flying by someone else.
"Qingqing, are you alright?" Feng Cang quickly checked Murong Qiqi and heaved a sigh of relief when he found that she wasn't injured.
On the other side, Wanyan Kang sensed the killing intent and quickly dodged to the side. It was only after he steadied himself that he saw Feng Cang.
"Cousin, are you trying to murder me?!" Wanyan Kang exclaimed exaggeratedly. However, the joy on his face was even greater. Wanyan Kang had always been close to Feng Cang. Seeing that Feng Cang had returned, Wanyan Kang immediately went forward to give him a bear hug.
"Stop —" Before he could reach Feng Cang, Murong Qiqi stopped him. Only then did Wanyan Kang realize that Murong Qiqi and Feng Cang were in a very intimate position! Murong Qiqi's entire body was in Feng Cang's embrace. This was a scene that Wanyan Kang had never seen before, and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
"Your Highness, it's fine if you have bad habits. That's your choice. However, please don't stick to His Highness! Otherwise, others will think that His Highness is gay! That won't do! "
