Lü Guo, Huan Du.

  In the imperial palace, Feng Yu Fei wore a golden silk phoenix robe that wrapped around her slender body, standing at the corner of the castle tower, facing the night wind.

  Her long hair was high-bundled by a golden crown, without a single strand of redundancy.

  At this moment, Feng Yu Fei is the true heavenly princess, noble beyond compare, and completely different from the innkeeper's wife, Feng Niang, in Lu Ri Town.

  A gentle breeze blew her hair by her ear, she gazed at the dense stars in the night sky, and her charming and sentimental eyes showed deep thoughts.

  "Muyi, where have you gone? Why haven't you returned in ten years? Do you still remember me?" Feng Yu Fei murmured to herself.

  Behind her, a rustling sound of footsteps approached and stopped, and the person said in a low voice: "Princess, there is a letter from that side."

  Phoenix returned home, gathering her thoughts. She turned around. On her forehead, a beautiful and delicate floral pattern was painted with golden powder.

  "How is it?" Feng Yu Fei asked in a deep voice, with a hint of solemnity.

  In the imperial family of Lu Guo, the struggle among the princes was extremely fierce, but others were not worth mentioning. The most powerful and strongest was her third brother, Feng Yu Gui.

  Now that the Emperor is gravely ill, the battle for the throne has entered its final stage. She returned not long ago and needs Mu Qing Ge's help.

  Someone handed a bamboo tube to Feng Yu Fei, who immediately took it over, opened the bamboo tube, and carefully read the intelligence inside.

  After watching, her eyes were filled with shock, and she muttered: "Does he really have such energy?"

  The person hiding in the dark thought for a moment and then said, "A few days ago, news came that the little emperor of Qin was tortured to death by him, and his flesh was distributed among the people of Luoyang. A person with such means should not speak empty words."

  Feng Yu flew nodded and whispered coldly: "Actually provoked such a person, I really feel sad for my three brothers."

  "Princess, what's next..." The man raised his eyes and looked at her.

  Feng Yu's beautiful eyes flashed with a determined aura as she said one word: "Wait."

  Since he said wait, then she'll just have to keep waiting.

  However, while waiting, she still needs to do one thing, find the truth!

  Phoenix flew down from the corner tower of the palace wall and went into the depths of the palace.

  She walked unimpeded into a palace in the imperial palace.

  "Cough...cough..." In the palace, a coughing sound was heard, accompanied by a strong medicinal scent.

  Feng Yu Fei walked in without any announcement and saw an old figure sitting on the dragon chair.

  "Your Majesty."

  Feng Lan raised his head, looking at the woman walking towards him, a faint smile emerging in his stern eyes: "Fei'er you're here?" This daughter was his most beloved child. If it weren't for that incident ten years ago, she would probably have been the Crown Princess of Lu Guo by now.

  Feng Yu nodded and walked towards the dragon chair, picked up a cup of tea from the table and handed it to Feng Lan.

  Feng Lan took it and drank a mouthful.

  Feng Yu Fei stood behind him and gently pinched his shoulders: "Your Majesty's body is not suitable, it's better to rest more."

  Feng Lan smiled comfortingly and said: "State affairs are complicated, how can one rest whenever they want?"

  Feng Yu Fei remained silent, only silently massaging his father's shoulders. Feng Lan also refocused his attention on the memorial in his hand, concentrating on handling state affairs.

  After a while, he suddenly started coughing violently again.

  Feng Yu Fei hastily picked up a small round box from the table, opened it and took out one of the red pills inside, feeding it to Feng Lan.

  After taking the medicine, Feng Lan recovered a bit and sighed: "As people get older, they become more useless."

  Feng Yu furrowed his brow and said: "Third Imperial Brother has come to the Medicine Tower to study Dan techniques, why not let him help Father Emperor refine the medicine to thoroughly cure his illness?"

  "Who?" Feng Lan coldly snorted in anger: "An imperial son, went to the Medicine Tower to study, originally a supreme honor. But this bastard actually went to steal the Medicine Tower's elixir and was caught and expelled. He had told me he would refine medicine for me, I didn't let him."

  "Why must you, Father Emperor, use your own body to vent your anger on others?" Feng Yu Fei frowned and disapprovingly said.

  Feng Lan shook her head, with a complex expression.

  He couldn't express his concerns to Feng Yu Fei, no matter how much he loved her as his own daughter.

  Feng Yu's nature, as his father, how could he not know? If Feng Yu had not returned, perhaps he would have passed the throne to Feng Yu Gui, but now Feng Yu has come back.

  Now, he didn't refuse to let Feng Yu return to him to refine the elixir, but rather, he didn't dare.

  He was well aware of his son's ruthless and cunning nature, who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals. He feared that the medicinal dan given by Feng Yu might not be for treating his illness, but rather for taking his life!

  Therefore, in order to avoid internal strife, he must establish the position of Crown Prince while still alive and do his best to help the future Crown Prince clear away obstacles.

  However, Chu Jun had yet to decide who to support... and even now, he still hadn't made up his mind.

  "Father, Father?"

  In a daze, Feng Lan heard Feng Yu Fei's voice.

  Seeing his father staring blankly at him, Feng Yu Fei asked: "Father, what's wrong with you just now? I called out to you many times, but you didn't respond."

  Feng Lan forced a smile and perfunctorily said, "It's just that I was thinking of some things."

  Feng Yu Fei pulled him up and walked down from the dragon throne. "State affairs are complicated, Father Emperor also needs to take care of his body. When tired, walking around is also good."

  As she spoke, she helped Feng Lan up and they walked back and forth in the vast palace.

  Feng Lan rarely had such an experience, so she simply went along with it.

  After walking for a while, Feng Lan said: "Fei Er, have you been doing well these years abroad? Do you still resent the Emperor's ruthlessness back then?"

  Feng Yu Fei lowered her eyes and remained silent for a moment before speaking in a light tone, "Father Emperor, there's been something that has been troubling me all these years. I don't want to misunderstand you because of it. Can you tell me the truth today?"

  Phoenix's eyes sank, her voice colder by a degree: "You still won't give up?"

  "Just can't figure it out." Feng Yu Fei didn't mind Feng Lan's emotional changes, but suddenly said: "Can't figure it out, my father who has always spoiled me and loved me, why would he go all out to stop my marriage? Can't figure it out, why did Father look at him with disapproval? Can't figure it out, why did Father become so unfamiliar to me at that time."

  In Feng Yu Fei's voice, there was a hint of faint sorrow.

  Such emotions, silently and quietly spreading out, caused Feng Lan's heart to ache.

  "Fei'er, there are some things you don't need to know too clearly. You just need to know that Father Emperor is doing it for your own good." Feng Lan said.

  "Is it just because Mu Yi is from the Zhongguo Realm? Because he's the young master of the Mu family?" Feng Yu Fei suddenly said.

  Feng Lan's body shook slightly, and she looked at her unexpectedly: "You already know? What else do you know?"

  "Feng Yu Fei calmly said, 'Knowing isn't much, nor is it little. It's precisely because of this that I want to know the truth, and even more unwilling for some misunderstandings to create distance between us father and daughter.'"

  "Is it because of this that you've come back?" Feng Lan's eyes were fixed tightly on her.

  "It's one of the reasons." Feng Yu Fei said frankly, "In those years, no matter how I begged and pleaded, Father Emperor was unwilling to tell me the truth. Now that ten years have passed and Mu Yi is also gone, I just want an answer so I can let go."

  "You... why must you suffer like this?" A hint of pain and regret flashed across Feng Lan's eyes.

  His daughter liked whoever was not good for her, but she just happened to like someone outside of their social circle.

  "Father, give me an answer today." Feng Yu Fei suddenly knelt down and looked up at his father.

  Feng Lan hesitated for a long time, finally compromising and nodding: "Alright, it's been ten years, you should know the truth by now. Get up first."

  Feng Yu's heart was racing with excitement, and after standing up, he helped Feng Lan sit down on the chair. He himself sat on the footstool, resting his head on his father's knee, just like when he was a child.

  This scene seemed to have also triggered Feng Lan's memories. He revealed a benevolent smile, raised his hand and gently stroked Feng Yu Fei's hair as he had done before.

  "That year's matter, I cannot tell you, it is because your temperament is too stubborn and fierce. If you knew the truth, I fear you would even more recklessly rush in. You are my most precious daughter, I cannot watch you fly into the fire! But, I am also a ruler of a nation, even more cannot push the people into danger..."

  Feng Lan's words made Feng Yu feel a hint of his father's helplessness at that time.

  "That year, when you told me that you had chosen a husband to your liking and wanted me to take him as my son-in-law, I was delighted in my heart. However, on the same night, someone suddenly appeared in the imperial palace and severely injured the Purple Boundary Elder, the guardian of the palace. You can imagine how shocked and frightened I was at that time. I worried that he would be unfavorable to Lu Guo, worried that he had other intentions for Lu Guo. But he told me to stop your marriage with Muyi at all costs, even to drive Muyi away, and if possible, kill him."

  Feng Yu Fei listened quietly, but the light in his eyes gradually turned cold.

  "He gave me two options. One was to ignore his words, and on the day of your grand wedding, it would be the day of Lu's downfall. The other was to stop you both and kill Mu Yi. I had no other choice, between these two, I could only choose the latter!" Feng Lan finally spoke out the truth that day.

  "Who is that?" Feng Yu Fei raised his head and looked at his own father.

  Feng Lan saw hatred and anger in her eyes.

  "Feng Lan said helplessly: 'He didn't reveal his identity, but I can sense that he's doing this because he hates Mu Yi and wants to destroy everything Mu Yi wants. Since the root of the problem is caused by Mu Yi, I naturally hope to use another Mu Yi to resolve the crisis in Lü Guo.'"

  Who is the person who has been resentful of Mu Yi and has a deep-seated hatred for him?

  And from outside the boundary...

  Feng Yu Fei had a general outline of his enemy's appearance.

  "Later, you and Mu Yi left. To appease that person's anger, I could only strip you of your princess title and send troops to hunt you down. Fortunately, you ultimately managed to evade capture and hide safely." Feng Lan sighed with emotion.

  "What happened to that person later?" Feng Yu Fei never thought that behind her father's strong opposition to her being with Mu Yi, there was such a huge threat.

  If that person really hated Muyi to the bone, after she and Muyi escaped, he would definitely vent his anger on Ligu.

  However, she later never heard of anything big happening in Luguon.

  It was only faintly heard that soon after she escaped, during the time when Mu Yi went missing, Father Emperor became so furious that he fell severely ill.

  It was also after that time that Father's body began to deteriorate more and more.

  Could it be...

  Feng Yu's eyes flashed with a fierce light as he suddenly stood up and asked Feng Lan, "What did the Emperor do to you?"

  Feng Lan evasively said, "Nothing has happened. Alright, you've learned what you wanted to know. It's late at night, hurry back and rest. I'll finish reading the remaining memorials and then rest too."

  Feng Yu Fei was 'driven' out.

  The palace gates closed behind her.

  Feng Yu Fei gazed deeply at the tightly closed palace gates for a long time before deciding to leave. Just as she was about to walk away, the eunuch who had been attending to Feng Lan's side suddenly called out to her.

  "Your Highness, what happened after you left that year, His Majesty did not want to say, was afraid of worrying you. But now, this old slave has no choice but to say."

  Feng Yu Fei looked at him, her lips slightly pursed, waiting for his next words.

  The eunuch's eyes welled up with tears as he gritted his teeth and said, "When the princess left back then, that person was furious. Your Majesty had to send people to chase and kill the princess and Mu Gongzi in order to appease him. Afterwards, there was no news for a long time, and that person, in his rage, shattered Your Majesty's meridians with one palm, destroying all of your spiritual energy cultivation. He even threatened to slaughter the city to vent his anger. Fortunately, at the critical moment, he seemed to sense something and suddenly left, allowing our country to narrowly escape disaster. Your Majesty was severely injured and on the verge of death, but thanks to the Purple Boundary Protector in the palace and Master Lou from the Medicine Tower using all their strength to rescue him, they were able to preserve his life. However, from then on, his body deteriorated day by day, and no medicine could cure it. Princess, please don't blame Your Majesty anymore. He also has his own difficulties!"

  As she walked out of Fenglan's palace, Feng Yu Fei had already bitten her lips to the point of bleeding, and the metallic taste seeped into her mouth, but she didn't notice.

  She had no idea that her own father almost died, and it was because of her!

  No matter who that person is, she must find him! She must get back everything he did to the emperor!

  Feng Yu Fei's eyes became even more determined, and the grand princess from back then had truly returned!

  ……

  Huan Du, outside the city.

  Feng Yugu and Feng Yu Fei each rode a horse, followed by the ritual officials of Lü Guo and the ceremonial team.

  Feng Yu glanced at Feng Yu Fei with disdain, coldly snorting: "Since you've left, why must you come back? Now, I still have to welcome the Qin country's envoy with you."

  Feng Yu Fei didn't even acknowledge him, and didn't even give him a glance.

  Such a reaction made Feng Yu's eyes cold, his face suddenly fell, and he looked very ugly. "Feng Yu Fei, don't think you can be so arrogant just because you have the emperor's support. I'm telling you, the position of Crown Prince of Lu Guo can only be mine! You'll never get it!"

  Feng Yu Fei sneered: "What makes you so confident?"

  "You!" Feng Yu Heng said coldly: "I'm telling you, this time the Emperor invited the envoys from various countries to come, it's precisely to announce who will be the Crown Prince. You've been gone for ten years, do you think anyone still remembers you? But I am different, I am the most outstanding prince in the Luoyang imperial family, the envoys who came, must think that I am the most suitable candidate for the position of Crown Prince."

  "Best of the best?" Feng Yu Fei coldly mocked: "The best prince in our country was actually expelled from the Medicine Tower for the crime of theft? Such excellence, our country really doesn't want it, can't even bear to have this person."

  "Don't spout nonsense! That's slander! Someone is jealous of me and intentionally slandering me! I've already explained the whole thing to Father Emperor, so stop teasing me about this!" Feng Yuexue was so angry that she almost took action.

  This thing can be said to be a shame for his whole life, and it cannot be washed away!

  Feng Yu's words made Feng Yu's heart even more sarcastic. However, she didn't argue with him again, but smiled meaningfully and said: "Are you so sure that the envoys of various countries will recommend you to Father Emperor?"

  "Of course!" Feng Yu said confidently.

  Feng Yu Fei smiled and said: "However, I know that there is one country that will absolutely not support you."

  Feng Yu's eyes turned cold, her five features slightly twisted as she stared at her: "What did you say?"

  "Is my words so hard to understand?" Feng Yu Fei smiled at him again.

  "Which country?" Feng Yu Xiu's voice was cold and detached as he spoke.

  Feng Yu Fei ignored him with a smile, rode his horse forward a few steps: "You will know soon."

  "Now, Mu Qing's reputation is so loud, although Qin Guo has undergone tremendous changes, it does not damage the national prestige at all, but instead only increases and does not decrease. With the full support of Qin Guo, the current Tu Guo is also looking up to Qin Guo, even if you get the support of Yu Guo and Ba Guo, what can you do? At most, it's just a tie." Feng Yu Fei sneered in his heart.

  It's laughable that Feng Yu still thought he had a sure win.

  She couldn't wait to see what his expression would be like when he saw that the leader of the Qin state delegation was someone with whom he had a past grudge.

  Not long after, at the end of the official road, a slow-emerging column of several thousand people appeared.

  On the high-held banner, there is a "Qin" character, and also a "Mu" character commander flag.

  Leading the way was a woman in red, her slender figure clad in silver armor, exuding an extraordinary aura, majestic and awe-inspiring, with a heroic spirit that stood out from the crowd. Even before approaching, she could be distinguished as exceptional.

  Behind her were five hundred Black Armor Guards riding Flame Horse Spirit Beasts.

  Behind them were a thousand infantrymen and two thousand cavalrymen, with chariots and horses stretching out in an endless stream, their momentum majestic.

  "The Qin state envoy has arrived." someone among the welcoming officials said.

  Feng Yu returned immediately reined in the anger in his heart and looked up.

  When he saw the Mu character on the flag, he slightly furrowed his brow, and in his heart there was a very uncomfortable feeling. That Mu character made him think of someone he hated to the bone.

  As the Qin state's procession gradually approached and clearly entered his eyes, the stunning beauty at the forefront caused his pupils to shrink violently, with an unprecedented shock in his heart.

  "How could it be him!" Feng Yu's return from the dead would never forget a face, and yet it suddenly appeared in front of him without warning.

  Suddenly, a sarcastic voice came from beside her ear: "What? When the Third Prince makes an enemy of someone, doesn't he ever investigate their background clearly?"

  This sentence made Feng Yu return fiercely, with a pair of eyes full of anger, he looked at Feng Yu Fei and asked: "Who is he?"

  Feng Yu Fei laughed playfully: "Him? Can't the Third Imperial Brother see the commander flag above? In Qin Country, who else can hang up a Mu character commander flag?"

  Feng Yu's eyes widened as she took a deep breath, "Qin Guo Mu Fu, he is the young master of Mu Fu!" That young master who single-handedly stirred up the winds and clouds of Qin Guo, killing off most of the imperial family? That young master who defeated Tu Guo, forcing them to surrender and never dare to disobey again? That young master who not long ago, beheaded the peerless expert of Zi Jing in public, and humiliated the Emperor of Qin Guo?

  Almost every legend about Mu Fu Xiao Jue had appeared in Feng Yu's mind once, and his heart sank a little.

  He never thought that Mu Ge was actually Mu Qing Ge, the young master of the Qin State!

  If he had known earlier, it would have been too late to win her over, so why would he be against her everywhere?

  When Feng Yuexing saw Mu Qingge's face, which was so beautiful that it was hard to tell whether he was a man or a woman, as he got closer and closer, he suddenly had an urge to escape.

  Mu Qingge wore a suit of light armor, riding the black smoke to arrive in front of Feng Yu Fei and Feng Yu Gui. She looked at Feng Yu Gui's pale face, suddenly smiled, and said with a playful tone: "Third Highness, long time no see."

  A simple sentence shattered the illusion in Feng Yu's heart!

  Would he rather have the person in front of him be just a stranger with the same face as Mu Ge?

  Feng Yu's facial muscles twitched continuously, her face gloomy, unsure of how to respond.

  His unusual behavior made the ceremonial officials anxious in secret, and they could only look towards Princess Feng Yu Fei.

  Feng Yu Fei's demeanor was normal, his gaze towards Mu Qing Ge was neither humble nor arrogant, with a national style: "I have long admired the great name of Young Master Mu, and today I see that it is indeed not in vain. Young Master has had a hard journey, let's go to the post house to rest first."

  This scene made the officials nod their heads in succession.

  Mu Qingge's gaze shifted from Feng Yu Gui to Feng Yu Fei, with a similarly faint smile: "Thanks for the trouble, Your Highness."

  They successfully met up with the Qin state envoys and merged into one group, heading towards the relay stations set up by the various states in Lü country.

  On the road, Feng Yu couldn't help but pull on the reins of Feng Yu Fei's horse and asked in a low voice: "You've known about my relationship with him all along?"

  Feng Yu Fei gave a faint smile and didn't respond. She only said, "Third Imperial Brother, if you're not feeling well, why don't you go back and rest first? Forcing yourself to stay will inevitably delay the guests."

  She had barely finished speaking when, without waiting for Feng Yu to refute, the ceremonial officer accompanying them said: "The Grand Princess is right. If Your Highness is not feeling well, it would be better to leave first. The Qin State's current momentum is overwhelming, and it's indeed not easy to offend them."

  Feng Yu's face was gloomy and uncertain, his sharp eyes darting back and forth between Feng Fei and Li Guan. Finally, he let out a heavy hum, before turning his horse around and leaving.

  At this moment, he really didn't want to be with Mu Qingge, so it's better to leave first and discuss countermeasures with his staff.

  Now, Feng Yu has understood the meaning of Feng Yu Fei's previous words. What she said, that there is a country that will not stand on his side, refers to Qin Guo!

  ……

  When Feng Yu went back to discuss countermeasures with his staff, Feng Yu Fei had already brought Mu Qing Ge to the Qin State's post house.

  After dismissing everyone around them, Feng Fei and Mu Qingge sat together.

  Feng Yu Fei personally poured a cup of tea for Mu Qing Ge and said softly: "I really didn't expect you to come over in person."

  Mu Qingge lifted her teacup and sniffed it a few times in front of her nose, smiling: "What? I thought you should have thought of that long ago." She came, but she was here to collect debts.

  "The affairs of Qin are many and complicated, I think..." Feng Yu Fei said, biting her lip.

  Mo Qingge put down the teacup, leaned back in his chair, and looked extremely lazy: "The affairs of Qin Guo will be handled by the Emperor of Qin himself, I'm very idle."

  "The Qin state has already established a new emperor?" Feng Yu Fei asked in surprise.

  Mo Qing's almost imperceptible nod: "A country cannot be without a ruler for even one day, now that the Emperor of Qin has died, someone naturally needs to take his place."

  Upon hearing her utterly casual words, Feng Yu flew into a speechless rage, shaking his head: "Under the heavens, there's only you who can speak of royalty as if they were ordinary people."

  Mo Qingge curled her lips. She didn't think the emperor was anything special, just a high-end wage earner.

  "Who ascended to the throne as emperor?" Feng Yu Fei asked curiously.

  "Qin Jincheng." Murong Qingge said casually.

  Anyway, after the new emperor ascends to the throne, national letters will be sent to various countries, which is no secret.

  "The former Regent?" Feng Yu Fei was even more astonished, she pursed her lips and hesitated before saying: "But I heard that the Regent's body seems to be not very good."

  "It's fine now." Mu Qing Ge replied briefly.

  Feng Yu Fei's eyes lit up instantly, and he stood up, excitedly saying: "Is it the young master who has taken action? It is rumored that Qin Huang has been frail and weak in his veins since childhood. Now that the young master can cure him, it can only be said that the young master's skills are unparalleled. I have an impolite request, please allow me to ask the young master to agree."

  After she finished speaking, she knelt down.

  It seems that she, this princess of Lu Guo, is no different from Yuhe and Huayue in front of Mocheng Ge.

  Mo Qingge raised her eyes and looked at her, asking: "What's wrong?"

  "It was my father." Feng Yu Fei raised her head, and a layer of mist appeared in her beautiful eyes. She suppressed the sadness in her heart and recounted the conversation with Feng Lan that day, as well as the words of the eunuch general manager afterwards.

  "My father's downfall is all because of me, I cannot just stand by and do nothing. If Young Master can lend a hand, Feng Yu Fei will be eternally grateful to Young Master." Feng Yu Fei bowed deeply.

  Mo Qingge glanced at her lightly and said, "You get up first."

  Feng Yu Fei stood up according to his words, but there was still a pleading look in her eyes.

  "Sit down," Mu Qing said, pointing to the chair beside him.

  Feng Yu Fei sat down according to Mu Qing Ge's instructions, and as soon as she did, a porcelain bottle fell between her knees.

  She lowered her head and took a look, with surprise bursting out of her eyes.

  "The elixir in here can consolidate the foundation and nourish the origin, you take it to Feng Lan first, after our matter is settled, I will see what his situation is." Murong Qingge said.

  Feng Yu nodded and carefully put the porcelain bottle close to her body.

  "What's the current situation in Lugu?" Mu Qing asked.

  Feng Yu Fei carefully articulated the situation in Lu Guo: “……I can sense that Father Emperor intends for me to inherit the position of Crown Prince, and also senses his dissatisfaction with Feng Yu Gui. However, because Feng Yu Gui’s influence is not small, and I have been away from the palace for many years, he needs a better reason. Or rather, I need a bigger bargaining chip on my body, so that the officials of Lu Guo will have nothing to say.”

  "So, Feng Lan has brought about this grand gathering of five nations?" Mu Qing Ge's eyes sparkled with a hint of surprise.

  Feng Yu nodded slightly: "Perhaps the Emperor wants to see, in the Five Nations Summit, how many people at home support Feng Yu's return when facing external pressure. I understand the Emperor, if he decides to establish a crown prince, he will eliminate all obstacles for the crown prince, no matter how ruthless the means are, no matter how infamous it makes him."

  "Alright, I understand." Mu Qing Ge replied lightly.

  "How do you plan to do it?" Feng Yu Fei asked.

  "Don't worry about that, just keep doing what you should be doing. However... the thing with Mu Yi has actually piqued my interest a bit."

  "What did Young Master notice?" Feng Yu Fei asked anxiously.

  Mù Qīng Gē narrowed her eyes and said slowly, "You said that at the time, that person originally wanted to kill your father emperor and slaughter the city, but suddenly changed his mind and left. And also said that the time when this thing happened, after careful calculation, is roughly the same as the time when Mù Yì disappeared?"

  Feng Yu nodded slightly.

  Her heart was racing non-stop, with a feeling as if Mu Qing Ge had discovered the key within.

  "If that's the case, we can assume that what changed his mind was Mu Yi himself. Perhaps there is some connection between them that allows them to sense each other. So when Mu Yi arrived at Lin Chuan border, he would follow him down. And when he found out Mu Yi left, he immediately left too. But there's one thing I still can't figure out..." Murong Qingsong slowly shook his head, furrowing his brow.

  "What's wrong?" Feng Yu Fei asked anxiously.

  The singer stroked his chin thoughtfully, "What's the connection between him and Mu Yi that makes him unable to wait for a moment, even changing his previous decision?"

  Feng Yu Fei fell silent, his body's aura wrapped in a faint melancholy.

  Feeling the aura on her body, Mu Qingge's eyes flashed and she smiled: "This answer, I'm afraid only Muyi can tell."

  "Feng Yu Fei forced a smile: 'Yes. Only, I don't know what year or month I'll be able to see him.'"

  "You've already waited for ten years, what else can't you wait for?" Mu Qing Ge laughed.

  Feng Yu Fei took a deep breath, nodded heavily, and said firmly: "Exactly. I've waited for ten years, what's the harm in waiting another ten?"

  After calming down her emotions, Feng Yu Fei regained her noble demeanor as the Grand Princess of Luoying.

  She said to Mu Qing, "In the next two days, envoys from various countries will arrive. Tonight, Father Emperor will host a dinner in the palace to welcome the envoys. If I'm not mistaken, Father Emperor will also discreetly mention this matter of appointing an heir at the banquet."

  "En, solving it earlier is better." Mu Qingge nodded. Although she had some free time, it wasn't much. After collecting the debt from Xiang Feng Yu Gui, she still had to rush back to Qin Guo, and then it would be the day she set off to meet with the people of Yao Ta in Mu Cheng.

  "The day you ascend to the throne of Emperor, I will take the life of Feng Qi." Mu Qing Ge said suddenly.

  Feng Yu Fei laughed and said: "This is exactly what we agreed on. His life belongs to you, while his mother's life belongs to me."

  Mo Qingge raised his eyes and looked at her, their four eyes met, everything was self-evident.

  ……

  For two days, Mu Qingge sat calmly in the inn, closing the door and refusing visitors.

  During this time, Feng Yu came back twice to deliver invitations, seemingly wanting to ease their relationship. However, Mu Qingge had already lost interest in pretending to be friendly with him, so she simply didn't see him.

  Within two days, as Feng Yu said, envoys from other countries also arrived one after another.

  Tūguó, Yúguó, and Bāguó.

  Adding the first arriving Qin State, four countries were separately in four post houses. Although they all stayed in the post house area, they were far apart and had not met each other.

  Soon after, an invitation to a palace dinner party arrived from the imperial court.

  She was playing with the imperial edict in her hand, and Mu Qing's clear eyes were filled with playful intentions. She really looked forward to tonight's dinner party.

  In the mansion of Feng Yu Gui, his face looked very unsightly. The attendants beside him exchanged glances and thoughts with each other. After a while, one of them walked out and said to Feng Yu Gui: "Third Prince, tonight is the day when His Majesty hosts a banquet to welcome the envoys from various countries. Your Highness must seize this opportunity to build good relations with the leaders of these envoys."

  Feng Yu returned with an annoyed tone: "I know! Other countries are not afraid, but Qin Guo is...” As soon as he thought of Mu Qing Ge, he got a headache and his eyebrows furrowed tightly.

  That aide also frowned and said: "How is it that the young master of Qin still refuses to see Your Highness?"

  Feng Yu returned with a terrible mood and said, "I didn't know he was that person from Qin State earlier, and I had some past conflicts with him. But I never thought he would be so narrow-minded and refuse to see me."

  The staff exchanged glances secretly and remained silent.

  The opening staff said with some worry: "Qin Guo is now in a strong wind, after the defeat of Tu Guo, everything is respected as Qin Guo, and it's feared that offending this young ancestor will lead to another massacre at the court of Tu Guo. If Mu Xiao doesn't agree to reconcile with Your Highness, I'm afraid the situation on the side of Tu Guo..."

  Suddenly lost the support of two countries, what kind of situation will be left with the remaining two countries?

  The staff members had different thoughts and remained silent.

  Even their initial optimism about Feng Yuexia's return has become somewhat fragile.

  "Feng Yu returned with a look of annoyance: 'Don't even think about the Qin state, I wouldn't deign to go and beg that surname Mu. Instead, it's other countries that need more effort. When the time comes, if Yu and Ba stand on my side, what do I have to fear? Especially Yu, which borders our Lu country, their attitude is much more important than those countries separated by thousands of mountains and rivers.'"

  The staff looked at each other and nodded one after another, saying: "Now, we can only try our best to win the attitude of Yu Guo."

  "Who is leading the delegation from Yu Guo?" Feng Yu suddenly asked.

  A group of attendants all said unclearly, just as Feng Yu was about to get angry, one person said: "Yu Guo arrived the latest, after arriving at Huan Du, he went directly to the post house to rest, and we have not yet inquired who led the team."

  "A bunch of trash!" Feng Yu said with a scowl.

  The staff fell silent, with their eyes cast down and their noses pointed at their hearts.

  Seeing them one by one like this, Feng Yu has already had the heart to kill people.

  However, thinking of the proper matter at hand, he could only suppress the anger in his heart and wait for the evening banquet to begin before reacting accordingly.

  Night falls, as scheduled.

  Lü Guo's imperial palace, Mu Qingge had never been there before. In fact, apart from the Qin Guo imperial palace, she had only visited the Tu Guo imperial palace for a night tour and took away their emperor.

  Luo Guo Imperial Palace, it was her third imperial palace to enter.

  The imperial palace of the State of Lu, compared to that of Qin, seems more exquisite. Some scenes are arranged very cleverly, giving a sense of "a village hidden behind willows and flowers", with surprises everywhere.

  Some ingenious arrangements also added a bit of vitality to the dull palace.

  The servant led Mu Qing and others to a side hall next to the grand hall where the banquet was being held, then bowed and retreated. This was a side hall, with incense burning in the censer, fruit, pastries, tea and water all ready.

  It seems that it was a place for envoys from various countries to take a short rest when the banquet began.

  When Mu Qing came in, there was already a person inside.

  Their clothing is very rough and has many animal totems.

  Butcher country people. Mu Qing's eyes lit up, and her gaze became playful.

  The envoys of the butcher country, who were eating and drinking, felt someone coming in, raised their eyes to take a look, and saw Mu Qingge's figure. Suddenly frightened, they choked on the food in their mouths.

  After coughing violently several times, he finally spat out the food stuck in his throat and rushed to Mu Qingge's side with his legs bent in a kneel: "Your humble servant Tuo Guo Heliantuote presents himself before Young Master!"

  Mu Qing's lips slightly curled up as she gazed down at the prostrate Tuo Guo envoys before her, saying softly, "Rise."

  Having said that, he ignored him and walked past him to another area where the delegation was resting.

  He Mu Qing Ge walked far away, and He Lian Tuo Tuo finally wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and stood up.

  However, he didn't dare return to the resting area of the Butcher Country to rest either. He simply stood obediently on the side, and even his breathing became much lighter.

  Such a cautious and careful appearance made Mu Qingge feel like he was a great demon king.

  She raised an eyebrow and said to Helian Detu: "Do what you should do."

  He Lian stepped back, laughing, and led the people to retreat to the rest area of the Tu Guo delegation. He sat down again, but this time when he ate, he became extremely elegant, making Mu Qingge stunned and lost in laughter.

  At this time, another envoy entered from outside.

  Mu Qingge raised her eyes to look at the leader among them, and a faint smile appeared in her eyes.

  Zhao Nanxing came in and looked around, when he saw Mu Qingge, he also smiled warmly, just about to walk over, but felt someone coming from behind, so he stopped his footsteps and looked back.

  This time when they came, before they even arrived, a crisp bell sound was heard.

  Before long, the delegation from Paraguay arrived.

  The leader of the group was actually the current Grand Wizard of Paraguay.

  The Grand Poobah of the country is equivalent to an emperor in other countries, but it's also different. If understood according to Mu Qing Ge, the Grand Poobah is like the Secretary-General of the United Nations.

  Mu Qingsong stood up and walked towards the great witch of Ba country.

  Zhao Nanxing thought for a moment and also walked over. He Liantuo kept an eye on Mu Qingge's movements, seeing her walk towards the Ba Guo envoy, he also quickly followed with his men.

  "Mu Qingge has seen the Great Witch." Mu Qingge walked up to the Great Witch of Ba Country and slightly bowed her head.

  Ba Guo Da Wu glanced at Mu Qing Ge and smiled: "The letter from Tian Long, I have received it. Young Master can rest assured."

  "Thanks for your trouble." Mu Qing Ge smiled in gratitude.

  Their conversation seemed like a riddle.

  However, Mu Qing and Zhao Nanxing understood each other's meaning when their eyes met.

  The four countries arrived at Qi, and the palace feast officially began.

  When the grand hall announced the entry of the four-country envoy, the forces from all sides walked out of the side hall, and unexpectedly took Qin Guo as the leader.

  The subtlety of this, after they entered the grand hall, fell into the eyes of the officials of Lü Guo, making the officials of Lü Guo, even Feng Lan who was sitting on the throne, flash with a glimpse.

  Feng Yu Fei and Feng Yu Gui sat on either side of Feng Lan.

  Above them two, in a position almost parallel to Feng Lan's, was the seat of the four nations' delegation.

  On both sides of the grand hall are the seats for the hundred officials of Lu Guo.

  The entire hall accommodated several hundred people!

  When Feng Yuexing saw that the leader of the Yu State envoy was actually Zhao Nanxing, his eyes suddenly turned cold and his face became extremely ugly.

  Digression

  Every day facing the computer, shoulders and neck are getting more and more painful, does anyone have any good relief methods?
