The Unique Queen - C230
Now, you dare to interfere with my orders, I’ll break your legs!
After hearing Feng Wuyou’s words, Huyan Ruijin was stunned for a moment. A trace of confusion surfaced in her eyes as she stared at Feng Wuyou’s face and finally, uncertainly opened her mouth: “Are you really Hong Zhong?” In fact, when she saw Feng Wuyou in the great hall earlier, she had felt that Feng Wuyou and him looked like statues.
“Eh ….” Feng Wuyou realised that she had blurted out something, and quickly thought of something, nodding her head, “Yes, I am Hong Zhong. Speaking of which, we can be considered to have become old acquaintances, you looking at me like that, it’s very scary, okay?”
“Didn’t you die?” Huyan Ruijin heard and paused for a moment. Then, she seemed to have realized something, “So, you are Feng Wuyou, Young Master Wuyou, and you took the Herba Brassicae for Baili Mingyue?”
“Yes sir!” Feng Wuyou nodded. Logically speaking, the reason why the uncle needed the Herba Brassicae was only recently found out, and why Huyan Ruijin knew that she took the Herba Brassicae for Baili Mingyue?
After Feng Wuyou finished speaking, Huyan Ruijin fell silent and did not speak anymore. On the other hand, when that Mask Beautiful Man heard Hong Zhong’s name, he gave Feng Wuyou a deep glance;
Sensing that someone was staring at him, Feng Wuyou tilted his head to look at him, but he shifted his gaze away first. After that, he did not make things difficult for Feng Wuyou anymore, and silently turned to leave.
After seeing that the Mask Beautiful Man had left, Huyan Ruijin glanced at Feng Wuyou, and without saying a word, she quickly caught up to him.
And his actions also made Feng Wuyou a little curious about the identity of that Mask Beautiful Man. Huyan Ruijin was already Xi Ling’s Prince Jin, and was also armed with a heavy soldier. Logically speaking, it should already be extremely respected, why did it feel like he treated the Mask Beautiful Man like it was special … Respected?
No, not respect, but something special. I care!
… ….
When Feng Wuyou returned to her room, shshefound that Xiao Lie was waiting for him at the door. When she asked, he found out that the house had already sent over food for them to eat, and Xiao Lie was waiting for her to come back for dinner.
Nodding his head, he walked in and saw that there were quite a few dishes on the table. It looked rather sumptuous.
Seeing that, Feng Wuyou did not hold back. After tossing and turning for the whole afternoon, she was already hungry. She sat down, picked up her chopsticks, and called Xiao Lie over to eat.
Xiao Lie looked at Feng Wuyou whose appetite had spread wide and said with concern, “Master, are you not afraid that the food will be poisoned?”
Feng Wuyou took a bite of the rice: “Don’t worry, this food is from the Mayor Mo, it won’t be poisonous, hurry up and eat it. If we don’t eat our fill, we won’t have any strength left tonight. ”
Actually, the only reason she was so at ease was not only because Mo Lingfeng had said that it wouldn’t be difficult for them to obtain the Herba Brassicae, but also because she wanted to understand the thoughts of those in power in the Navy Tide Continent. No matter if it was Mo Lingfeng, Leng Qianqiu, or even Huyan Ruijin, they were all famous people above in the Navy Tide Continent.
To be able to succeed like this, there must be some sort of integrity in it. They would definitely compete fairly with their competitors, not using such despicable methods.
Xiao Lie thought about it, and felt that Feng Wuyou’s words were reasonable. As they sat down to eat, they asked, “What are we going to do tonight?”
“Heh heh …” “You’ll know soon enough. Eat quickly, this meat is pretty good!” As Feng Wuyou said that, she gave Xiao Lie a piece of meat!
… ….
It was night.
The moonlight was bright and clear.
Xiao Lie looked at the fully armed Feng Wuyou as he organized the boxes he prepared previously. This was the box Hua Yurong prepared for her when he found out that Feng Wuyou was going to take the Herba Brassicae from her. She also instructed the Herba Brassicae to be placed on the thousand-year ice as soon as possible after it was removed so that it could be preserved.
After Feng Wuyou prepared the box, she carefully checked her equipment, Polygonum multiflorum Thunb and some hidden weapons before saying to Xiao Lie, “Let’s go.”
Xiao Lie nodded his head, but he could not help but be puzzled: “Master, where are we going now?”
“To take the Herba Brassicae, of course!” Feng Wuyou said with a serious face.
Xiao Lie was startled for a moment after hearing what he said, expressing his confusion. “Master, Mayor Mo said that Herba Brassicae can’t be picked tomorrow?” There isn’t much use in picking them. Wouldn’t it be a waste of effort to pick them now?
“We can only pick it tomorrow, but we’ll just go and look at it earlier. It doesn’t matter. When it opens tomorrow, we can get it down, so we can get it at the first possible moment. ” Feng Wuyou said in an unconcerned tone.
This time, Xiao Lie finally understood Feng Wuyou’s plan. Thinking for a while, he replied, “But, Master, didn’t Mayor Mo say that everyone would compete fairly?” Shall we go first?
“Did he say anything?” Feng Wuyou tilted his head and looked at Xiao Lie curiously.
Xiao Lie nodded his head, although Mo Lingfeng did not say that it was a fair competition, but back then he had said that whether or not they could obtain it depended on their own abilities. No matter what methods they used, he would not care, but it was limited to the time after the Herba Brassicae blossomed.
Therefore, everyone silently agreed. Within four hours after the Herba Brassicae bloomed tomorrow, would everyone be able to compete fairly by relying on their own ability?
Feng Wuyou suddenly became very serious. After thinking about it, she spoke to Xiao Lie in a serious tone, “Xiao Lie, let me tell you, although being upright and honorable is a very good thing, it is still targeted. Did you know? Just by comparing the two of us against them, we’ll be one dead, so for the sake of our goals, let’s not get entangled in matters that are too bright. ”
Amongst the eight people fighting for the Herba Brassicae s in the courtyard, his martial arts was the weakest. Although Feng Wuyou was slightly better, whether it was Leng Qianqiu, Huyan Ruijin, or even Murong Rui who was fighting at her side, she was afraid that one person would be enough to hold her back.
Thus, striking first at a time like this was indeed understandable.
Thus, she nodded, followed Feng Wuyou, and under the cover of night, she touched Jiang Zhu Ya who was at the back of the mountain.
… ….
In the bamboo forest at the back of the mountain.
Beneath the bamboo forest, there was a red dress. Hua Yurong looked at the bamboo forest with the jade flute in her hand, an indescribable expression on her beautiful face, no one knew what she was thinking about.
In the end, he slowly withdrew his gaze and was about to turn around.
Suddenly, the deep voice of a middle-aged man came from behind him, “What are you doing here?”
Hua Yurong slowly turned around and looked at the middle-aged man with a gentle complexion under the bamboo forest. He did not have any expression on his face, as if he had already expected that Yun Che would appear here.
When Mo Lingfeng heard this, an undetectable pang of heartache flashed in her eyes. The gentle expression on her face also disappeared, and she said with a cold expression, “Are you willing to come back? To be fooling around in the martial arts world, is better than this Young City Lord of the Zhonghe City! ”
His tone, other than dissatisfaction with Hua Yurong, also contained a little resentment!
“Mayor Mo, what arrogance!” Hua Yurong also had a cold expression. If it wasn’t to help Xiao Zhonger, did he think that he would be willing to come back and see her expression!? ” I know that the Zhonghe City does not welcome me, and I don’t need to worry, when she obtains the Herba Brassicae, I will leave! ” As she spoke, she prepared to leave.
“Mo Zixiao!” Mo Lingfeng was furious. It’s fine if you hang around in the martial arts world all day long without working in the proper business. But you’re acting like this, aren’t you treating your father with the attitude that you deserve?! ”
Hua Yurong stopped her steps and sneered: “Father? Hehe… Mo Zixiao? Hehe… “In this world, there is no longer a person like Mo Zixiao. There is only Hua Yurong, and my father died ten years ago.”
“You!” His only son, his own son, actually said such words to him. Mo Lingfeng’s anger could be imagined.
Looking at the bamboo forest, Mo Lingfeng saw that Hua Yurong’s tall and straight figure, a tinge of sorrow flashed past her eyes.
What did he do wrong? He only wanted to see his own son, so why did the heavens joke with him? Not only did his son not want to see him, he even wanted to recognize him!
Mo Lingfeng took a deep breath, and tried her best to suppress her anger. Finally, she said, “Okay, I, Mo Lingfeng have no son, and since you, Hua Yurong, are not a member of my Zhonghe City, then what qualifications do you have to break the rules of my Zhonghe City!”
What he said was precisely the matter of Hua Yurong secretly helping Feng Wuyou.
Previously, Feng Wuyou and Xiao Lie had entered the bamboo forest in the inner courtyard. Other than the poisonous snakes and arrows, the inside was filled with traps and traps.
As for the rest of the mechanisms, Hua Yurong had secretly shut them down, so this matter was in vain against Hua Yurong, but to put down his pride, he could not do it either, which was why she still had a cold expression on her face, and did not have the slightest intention of letting go.
Mo Lingfeng also had a face full of anger. The father and son duo stood facing each other in the bamboo forest under the night sky, causing Butler Ling Zhi to shake his head repeatedly.
Sigh… The mayor was clearly eager to see his young master, but the father and son were both stubborn people. Every time they saw each other, they would not give in and would not give in first.
Looking at the mayor’s body, it seemed like every day was getting worse and worse. The relationship between the two of them had not improved at all, instead, it had become more and more stiff.
As he thought about it, he stepped forward in a kind manner and advised Hua Yurong, “First Young Master, you shouldn’t get angry at the City Lord. All these years, you should have seen how the City Lord treats you. Furthermore, in the days that you were gone, the City Lord had been waiting for you to return every single day, and the reason why Feng Wuyou was able to safely enter the Inner Academy today and have the chance to obtain the Herba Brassicae s was all because of you! ”
Besides, it has already been a long time, why must young master keep brooding over it? No matter what, you are blood-thirsty fathers and sisters, and even if you do not admit that you are Mo Zixiao, the blood in your veins is Mo, this is a fact that no one can change.
After Ling Zhi finished speaking, Hua Yurong’s eyes that were originally filled with charm, swept towards Mo Lingfeng who was at the side. She turned her head slightly, and no one knew whether was she was angry or thinking about something, but Hua Yurong only had a determined look on his face.
Shortly after, under the bamboo forest, the three of them fell into a strange silence.
“No matter what, I must help her get the Herba Brassicae.” Hua Yurong remained silent for a while, before opening his mouth again. From his words, it was clear that he was determined to win the Herba Brassicae s.
When I agreed to let them compete fairly, it was already a step back. As long as she can rely on her own ability to obtain the Herba Brassicae tomorrow, I naturally wouldn’t make things difficult for him, but don’t you keep breaking the rules of the middle canal, or else, don’t blame me for not showing mercy! ”
“You should know that she won’t be able to get it on her own!” Hua Yurong retorted without hesitation.
Putting aside the fact that none of the people she was fighting for were kind people, if she had really gotten them based on her abilities, then even if she was beaten to death several hundred times over, it might not necessarily be possible for her to obtain it. Furthermore, the clan elders guarded by Crimson Pearl Cliff, with just Feng Wuyou alone, they simply could not beat her.
“Mo Zixiao, you … “Mo Zixiao, if you dare attack again and break the rules set by our ancestors, I will definitely break your legs!” Seeing that Hua Yurong was still so resolute, Mo Lingfeng slightly calmed his anger down, and appeared again. In the end, he looked at Hua Yurong who was gritting his teeth and saying, “If you don’t believe me, then you can try!” With that, he flung his sleeves and left.
The Herba Brassicae was something that the Mo family had guarded for hundreds of years.
The rules of the Mo family had clearly stated before that the descendants of the Mo family must protect the Herba Brassicae with all their might, and must not be used without permission, much less help outsiders with their plans to obtain the Herba Brassicae.
If he allowed Hua Yurong to help him in secret again and again, how would he face the Mo family’s ancestors?
Ling Zhi looked at Mo Lingfeng’s back and then looked at Hua Yurong: “Young Master, protecting the Herba Brassicae is the mission of the Mo Family. Don’t blame the City Lord for not understanding reason. Don’t get involved in this matter anymore! ” Saying so, he shook his head and followed.
Finally, the light faded away and he let out a light sigh. Xiao Zhonger, if I were to help you … if my father were to break your legs tomorrow, what would I do!?
