The Proud Prince and the Arrogant Princess - C355
“But …”
“You don’t believe me, do you? Your mother gave birth to you after so much effort, and you’re just standing on the side of your enemy?” The Prime Minister could not stand Xue Moyun’s wave after wave of doubts and actually became sullen.
He never had any feelings towards Xue Moyun, this granddaughter, so he was just barely putting on an act previously. He, who was of high status and rarely spoke in an amiable manner, so he was not so patient. Xue Moyun’s continuous questioning already made him somewhat impatient.
Seeing the Prime Minister’s expression, Xue Moyun already understood everything. In order to not anger the Prime Minister, she changed his expression immediately and said obediently: “I just want to know more about what happened to mother. Because mother passed away early, I can only look for mother’s scent from this place.” Xue Moyun said sorrowfully.
Seeing that Xue Moyun did not doubt her intentions, he forced herself to become gentle again. “That’s right, it’s not easy for your mother. The Prime Minister continued.
Xue Moyun rubbed her eyes and slowly walked over: “Blame it all on that emperor dog. I never thought that he would be such a beast with a human’s face. If not for external ancestor Father telling me this, I would have been tricked by him. ” Xue Moyun said with righteous indignation, and secretly clenched her fists.
“That’s right, the father of the external ancestor is useless, he couldn’t even avenge your mother, so it’s up to you.” The Prime Minister said while patting Xue Moyun’s shoulder.
“As a daughter, this is what I should do.” Xue Moyun forced out a smile and said.
“It’s great that you can think like that.” The Prime Minister was overjoyed to see that he had succeeded in convincing Xue Moyun.
“Then, Father external ancestor, what should I do?” Xue Moyun asked anxiously, he wished that he could kill his enemy now.
“No rush.” The Prime Minister waved his hand. “Stay here for two days before you come back with a detailed plan.”
“Alright, then I’ll be waiting for your arrangements.” Xue Moyun said obediently.
“Okay, then external ancestor Father still has a lot of things to do, so he’ll be leaving first. I’ll come back another day to see you. ” The Prime Minister stood up and walked to the door.
“That’s right.” The Prime Minister took two steps as if he had thought of something. He stopped and turned around before speaking in an amiable tone, “If you want to go out for a stroll, that’s fine too. You can move around freely in the Prime Minister’s house.”
“Really? That’s great. Thank you, external ancestor Father.” Xue Moyun thanked him quickly.
Seeing that the Prime Minister had walked out, Xue Moyun’s expression sunk. She had finally obtained the Prime Minister’s trust. Originally, with her personality, this Xue Moyun would definitely expose the Prime Minister’s true identity right in front of him. It was just that now, she was alone and weak, with a child in her womb, she could not go head to head against anything. And now that she was under the roof of a house, her freedom was restricted, which was why she came to a sudden realization and pretended to believe the Prime Minister’s words.
She already understood the meaning behind the Prime Minister’s words just now. She also understood why the Prime Minister would ask for her to be captured and did all that he could to get her to believe in him. So he had found the emperor and the prince to value him, and wanted him to kill them. He really knew how to scheme.
It was such a pity. They had never thought that they already knew what had happened all those years ago. Now that they fabricated such a story full of holes, it would only make it harder to confirm that their previous bad deeds were the truth.
Just now, the Prime Minister didn’t seem to doubt him. Then, he would send him to assassinate the Emperor. That way, he could return home. When he returned, everything would be fine.
But was the Prime Minister that gullible? Xue Moyun was a little worried. But who cares? At least now that she had obtained permission, she could walk around as she wished. Whatever she wanted to do would be much more convenient. She could go out and take a look before making any plans.
Xue Moyun thought and sat down. She then took out his whistle and blew it again, not giving up on that thought.
At dawn of the second day, early in the morning, Xue Moyun had already woken up and wanted to take a look outside.
“Miss, are you going out?” At this time, Bai Zhang, the maid who was sent to serve Xue Moyun, quickly followed along.
“Yeah, external ancestor already agreed to it yesterday, I can walk around.” Xue Moyun glanced at Bai Zhang, and coldly said this in his heart. She knew that Bai Zhang was sent by the Prime Minister to monitor her. So she could not show dissatisfaction.
“Since you aren’t familiar with the outside world, just let me follow you.” Bai Zhang said quickly.
“Em, hehe, there’s no need for that. I’m just strolling around the entrance. I can’t go too far. Besides, I have martial arts, so I can protect myself.” Xue Moyun quickly declined.
“How can that be? This servant was sent by the lord to take care of you, so I must protect your safety. Otherwise, I will definitely be punished by the lord.” Bai Zhang was determined to be with Xue Moyun, so he could not shake her off no matter how hard he tried.
“Since you want to follow, then do so.” Xue Moyun helplessly looked at her, his eyes filled with grief.
He did not expect that other than Bai Zhang following him, there were also a few guards with strong martial skills following Xue Moyun. To protect Xue Moyun, was actually monitoring her.
Xue Moyun finally understood that the old fox was still an old fox. Although the Prime Minister said that she could walk around, he was actually constantly monitoring her.
It seemed like he still did not trust Xue Moyun in his heart.
Even so, Xue Moyun still wanted to go for a walk and see if there was any good opportunities, which was better than bringing the bamboo forest.
Xue Moyun put on a little bit of makeup, then walked out of the Prime Minister’s Palace.
It was the first time she had been to the comfort camp and seen the country. He saw that the people on the street were all dressed in very new attire, with a different exotic atmosphere. The various items sold on the street were also refreshing. The pedestrians were bustling as they crowded around the place. As expected of a great country, the liveliness was even greater than the capital of the West Cold.
But Xue Moyun was not in the mood to look at these things, her eyes continued to search her surroundings, wanting to see if there was anything that could help her escape. Or a carrier pigeon or signal flare.
Xue Moyun walked and stopped, looking around the main street.
“Come and take a look, it’s a high-quality rouge water powder. Young lady, have a look. ” Xue Moyun walked leisurely. A female boss beside her shouted at her.
Xue Moyun saw that the Lady Boss was also a smart person, different from other people, so she slowly walked over and pretended to ask around with her rouge.
“Lady Boss, look at my skin, what kind of water powder is suitable for me?” Xue Moyun asked.
“Aiya, miss, you are asking the right person. Look at you, you are born beautiful, your skin is white and beautiful. Logically speaking, a hibiscus is born from clear water, so naturally you go and carve it up.” With your beauty that can topple nations, you don’t need any rouge water powder. “However, this woman’s skin is very delicate. If you don’t look good, you can still maintain it. Very soon, her face will wither.” The Lady Boss’s charming mouth was full of extravagance.
“Really? Then I don’t want to get old.” Xue Moyun worriedly said while hurriedly rubbing his moist skin.
“Don’t worry, here, some of them are top quality rouge water powder s. Many of them come from other countries. The effect is so great, don’t mention how good it is.”
Xue Moyun told the Lady Boss casually, telling the guards to wait not far away. Although Bai Zhang was Xue Moyun’s servant, Xue Moyun could tell from the cocoon in her hand that she was also a martial arts practitioner. Furthermore, with the character of a female brute, she was not interested in rouge water powder at all.
Sure enough, when Xue Moyun was deep in conversation with the Lady Boss, Bai Zhang also became bored to death.
She stood by the side with her arms crossed, staring at Xue Moyun expressionlessly, and then looking in the distance out of boredom.
Bai Zhang was originally a good assassin, but because Xue Moyun had a special identity and knew martial arts, the Prime Minister was worried that she would escape, so he sent Bai Zhang to pretend to be a servant to guard Xue Moyun.
Bai Zhang could not reject the Prime Minister’s arrangements, buhee was truly annoyed by the job from the bottom of his heart. He no longer had the patience to pour tea and do the work of a servant, she still had to accompany her to buy rouge and other boring things from the water powder. As far as she was concerned, the Prime Minister had overused himself. This Xue Moyun was a weak girl, able to turn a few waves.
At this time, Mu Ying had also come to the market. Other than sending Wei Ming and the others to find out more information, he had also personally gone out to inspect the current situation.
Because according to his previous understanding, this masturbating base already had a lot of Anti-Rebel s. Mu Ying’s goal was the same as the Anti-Rebel, to deal with the Minhan family together and the current monarch. Hence, Mu Ying hoped to meet the Anti-Rebel and hide within their ranks or cooperate with them.
Mu Ying was wearing exotic clothes, a profound fox skin top, a ring of colourful tiger glyphs embroidered with silk around the collar, and the cuffs on his hands were tightly tied with a string. He wore navy slacks, and a linen skirt with fine animal stripes that reached his calves. On his chest hung a string of large yellow honey wax, a necklace of red coral and turquoise, looking noble and elegant, neat and clean.
His hair was tied up with beast skins and braided into a few tiny braids. It was dropped onto a jet-black rock. A strand of black hair was hanging down from his left forehead, fluttering in the wind. His eyebrows were sharp, his nose was high, and his features were handsome. His eyes were so deep that one could only see the shadow cast by his eyelashes. Her thin, pursed lips gave off a feeling of majesty that one would not dare to infringe upon.
Even though he was wearing a foreign outfit and had beast like patterns on his body, his tall and slender body didn’t have a rough and tyrannical feeling. On the contrary, it made him stand out among the crowd.
Especially those shy girls. Just one glance at him and they would blush, their hearts would beat faster, and their hearts would beat faster. Although he knew that he wouldn’t need to be reserved when looking at her like this, his gaze couldn’t help but move along with her, unable to move away from her forever. His footsteps couldn’t help but follow him as he walked.
