Chapter 60: King Yan’s contempt, Mu Baiying finds fault
Chapter 60: King Yan’s contempt, Mu Baiying finds fault
A rare smile appeared on Li Zeqi's face, and a faint purple light flashed in his eyes, which made people's eyes bright, evil and mysterious.
"My little princess has a bad temper and doesn't know how to control her severity." Li Zeqi looked at Mu Lanfeng with an even bigger smile. He paused, looked back at Zheng Peng, and his smile froze on his face. "However, I also know that she won't hurt people for no reason. If you didn't provoke her, how could she..."
This is absolute trust. No matter who does it, it is someone else's fault!
Zheng Peng's heart skipped a beat, and then started pounding non-stop. His eyelids also twitched involuntarily.
Rumor has it that although the Prince of Yan was not favored by the Emperor, he still received all the things that the Emperor deserved. Some people said that he had a bad temper and was very serious. Even his personal guards who had followed him for many years rarely saw him smile...
I’m afraid I met a fake King Yan today?
"Your Highness the Prince of Yan is right. It's all my fault. I shouldn't... shouldn't have offended the Princess of Yan!" Zheng Peng lowered his head, his legs trembling, and he could hardly stand!
Li Zeqi's eyes fell on the follower beside Zheng Peng. The follower felt uncomfortable being stared at and lowered his head even more.
"Why don't you hold your master up? If he falls accidentally, will you blame my princess?" Li Zeqi said indifferently.
The follower was so frightened that he fumbled to support his master, fearing that he would accidentally offend the "King of Hell" again.
Zheng Peng allowed his followers to support him and dared not say a word.
Mu Lanfeng couldn't help but smile as she watched the funny scene between Zheng Peng and his servant.
"How is it? Are you relieved, Princess Yan?"
How strange it would be for someone who doesn’t usually like to laugh to suddenly laugh!
"Your Highness Prince of Yan, please respect yourself. I am not the Princess of Yan!" Mu Lanfeng muttered in a low voice, loud enough for Li Zeqi to hear.
Li Zeqi's smile remained unchanged. He patted Mu Lanfeng's head, who was half a head shorter than him, and said confidently, "It's only a matter of time. These few days won't make a difference!"
"you……"
Mu Lanfeng was speechless. She didn't want to discuss this topic with Li Zeqi. The only way to stop Li Zeqi from going on was for her to shut up first!
Zheng Peng and his group were so embarrassed that they were caught in a dilemma. The King of Yan didn't let them go, so no one dared to move. Finally, Zheng Peng couldn't help it, "Yan... Your Highness the King of Yan, can I leave now?"
Before Li Zeqi could speak, Mu Lanfeng spoke first, "No, you must compensate these vendors for their losses and apologize to them!"
"Compensation, I'll pay it all!" Zheng Peng agreed without hesitation.
"Just in time!" Li Zeqi waved to someone not far away. After a while, he saw his bodyguard Qin Qianyou coming over. He walked to his side, bowed, and asked, "What do you want, Your Highness?"
It turns out that whoever has the master has the same kind of guards!
Qin Qianyou's serious face is exactly the same as Li Zeqi's!
"Help Master Zheng settle the losses of these vendors. Not a penny should be less than what is due!" Li Zeqi ordered.
Qin Qianyou obeyed the order obediently and walked to Zheng Peng, still with that bitter face, "Mr. Zheng, please come in!"
At this moment, Zheng Peng didn't dare to say anything and could only follow Qin Qianyou obediently to count the compensation.
"Since there is nothing else, I will take my leave first!" Mu Lanfeng bowed and said.
"I will send you back!" Li Zeqi said.
Mu Lanfeng lowered her eyes. This kind of thing would be perfectly normal if it happened now, but she was in ancient times and a woman's reputation was particularly important. Even if she didn't care about these, her sisters in the family were not married yet, and she couldn't harm the whole family!
"Your Highness Prince Yan, do you think this is appropriate?" Mu Lanfeng asked coldly.
Li Zeqi raised the corner of his mouth slightly and stopped talking. He was inconsiderate, and this did not seem to be a good impression for Mu Lanfeng!
It was so quiet, so quiet that the air around seemed to freeze, so quiet that you could hear each other's heartbeat!
"No matter whether Your Highness is a prince or not, you must show the minimum respect to everyone! Does Your Highness look down on me like this?" Mu Lanfeng said expressionlessly.
Finally, she added, "If I am that kind of person in your Highness' eyes, then I have saved you in vain!"
After saying that, without waiting for Li Zeqi to react, he turned around and left!
……
Mu Lanfeng had been out for only about an hour. Just as she was about to come back home, she heard someone in the yard making things difficult for her maid.
"Why hasn't Fifth Sister come out yet?" That dignified yet elegant voice said.
"Miss, please be patient and wait a little longer. Our girl has been very tired recently. If you can't wait, just go back first. I will call you when you wake up!" Feiyan said calmly.
"This..." Mu Baiying looked embarrassed.
He has to be someone close to the old lady, and when he speaks, even Mu Baiying, who has eyes all over his body, can't find any fault with him.
Unable to leave through the main entrance, Mu Lanfeng groped his way to the back of Ziyunxuan and climbed into the warm room through the window...
Mu Lanfeng did not plan to leave immediately. She wanted to provoke Mu Baiying to see if she could still maintain her understanding, dignity and nobility.
"I'd better go in and call Fifth Sister myself. After all, we are sisters. I'm sure Fifth Sister won't blame me as her older sister!" Mu Baiying smiled and spoke softly and patiently.
Feiyan took a step closer to Mu Baiying and lowered her voice as if she was telling a secret, "Miss, you don't know, our girl grinds her teeth, snores, talks in her sleep, and even sleepwalks when she sleeps. Sometimes she even hurts people. I am doing this for your own good. What if our girl accidentally hurts you..."
Mu Lanfeng could hear everything outside clearly in the room. Her hearing was beyond ordinary people. Even if Feiyan lowered her voice, it sounded no different from a normal conversation to her.
She seriously suspected that Feiyan was taking this opportunity to retaliate against her. Telling Mu Baiying that she was grinding her teeth and snoring while sleeping was the same as telling everyone in the Mu Mansion, even those outside the Mu Mansion...
"Ah!" Mu Baiying looked incredulous. She knew Feiyan was making up lies to deceive her, but she couldn't expose her lies.
Feiyan nodded vigorously again to show that what she said was true.
"Then I'd better wait outside!" Mu Baiying said helplessly.
She was certain that Mu Lanfeng was not in the yard, and if she was not allowed to enter the house, she would just have to stay here...
Feiyan shrugged helplessly. Why was it so difficult to get rid of this plague god?
"You guys go about your business, you don't have to accompany me, I'll wait here!" Mu Baiying looked like she was determined to fight to the end.
The maids looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment. They just hoped that Mu Lanfeng would come back soon...
