Chapter 366 A good dog doesn’t block the road
Murong Yan paused, then turned sideways and leaned her back against the rockery.
"It's only a stick of incense. Your Highness has great ambitions, how could he not even have this little patience?"
Murong Yanhui could only see a corner of the skirt of the person who was speaking, but her enchanting and charming voice could not help but remind people of the beautiful snakes and vixens in the stories of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio.
"I am of noble status. It would be fine if you made an appointment here, but you are so late. If you harm me and others, I will be seen..." Murong Feng said coldly, but the other party chuckled, as if he didn't take Murong Feng seriously at all.
"Since Your Highness is so cautious, why bother meeting with me?"
"You..." Murong Feng was obviously furious, but for some reason the words on the tip of his tongue changed their tone. "Alright, there's no need to dwell on this issue anymore. What does your master think?"
When Murong Yanhui heard this, he felt that there was something strange about Murong Feng's words. He turned sideways and looked out from the crevice in the stone, only to see a head of golden hair shining brightly in the sunlight.
Persian?!
Murong Yanhui was startled and looked at the woman carefully. She had blonde hair, light blue eyes, and a charming yet sarcastic smile.
At this moment, she was staring at Murong Feng and slowly said, "The Lord said that it is not difficult to agree to the request of His Highness the Crown Prince. I just hope that His Highness can show a little sincerity."
"Sincerity?" Murong Feng raised an eyebrow in displeasure, but he felt that the other party's request was not excessive, so he asked, "How do you want to show it?"
"Well..." The woman smiled indifferently. Just as she was about to speak, a sudden voice came from a distance.
"Dad, Prince Dad, where are you? Yue'er is looking for you!"
Murong Yue's childish voice came from far away and gradually approached. When Murong Yan turned around, Murong Feng and the woman had disappeared.
Murong Yanhui had no choice but to turn around and leave the rockery, and slapped Murong Yue on the forehead as she rushed towards him.
Murong Yue covered her head with her hands, tears welling in her eyes as she said, "Bad dad, Yue'er was afraid you were sad and came out to comfort you. How could you treat Yue'er like this? Yue'er will never help you again next time."
Murong Yanhui immediately thought of Yu Qingli. Smiling, he took out a piece of candy from his sleeve and handed it to Murong Yue. He asked softly, "Did Lili ask you to come out to find me?"
"Hmph, bad dad hit me, but I won't tell you anything." After saying this, Murong Yue covered her forehead and ran towards the private room.
Murong Yan turned her head and took another look at the place where Murong Feng and the woman had just stood. After thinking for a while, she did not go to the private room but went directly to the backstage of the stage and found Qu Linlang.
"Your Highness, why do you have the leisure to come to this noisy backstage instead of accompanying the Princess?" Qu Linlang came forward with a smile, but while saying this, her eyes signaled everyone to leave.
The dancers were already used to it, and they immediately bowed and retreated out the door.
Murong Yan walked back to Qu Linlang, gently lifted a curtain on one side, and looked outside thoughtfully.
Qu Linlang has always been calm and did not disturb Murong Yanhui. She just stood quietly to the side.
After a while, Qu Linlang heard Murong Yanhui sigh and say, "Although your dancer is also outstanding, it is still far inferior to Lili's 'Mountain Ghost'."
Qu Linlang smiled and nodded, "The prince's wife is extremely talented and knowledgeable, no one can compare to her."
"Linlang, have you noticed that there seem to be a lot of new faces in your 'Beauty Shop' recently?" Murong Yan asked, but her eyes never left the curtain.
Murong Yanhui, who was just discussing dance, suddenly asked this question, which startled Qu Linlang. She remembered what Yu Qingli had just told her a few days ago. She couldn't help but look up and observe Murong Yanhui's expression carefully, as if she wanted to see whether Murong Yanhui was just saying it casually or knew something.
"I just saw a Persian woman." Murong Yan replied, then turned to look at Qu Linlang. His eyes were burning, as if he was also trying to see if Qu Linlang knew something. After a while, he said, "And Murong Feng."
"Murong Feng?" Qu Linlang exclaimed, "Why would the eldest prince come to the Beauty House?"
Qu Linlang said this, but she was really surprised in her heart. She didn't expect that Murong Yanhui would discover the clues of what Yu Qingli asked her to pay attention to early in the morning.
"Your Highness, have you discovered anything?" Qu Linlang asked tentatively.
"No, but there probably isn't anything good going on between them. Linlang, since they chose to meet here, you'd better pay more attention. If you find anything, please send someone to tell me immediately." Murong Yanhui's rare seriousness made Qu Linlang nod seriously.
Murong Yanhui knew Qu Linlang was a cautious person, so she didn't need to worry about the things she entrusted to her. However, she thought of Qu Linlang's usual seriousness and said worriedly, "Linlang, I'm sorry to trouble you with this matter. However, you must remember that no matter what, you must not take any risks. The first priority is to protect yourself, understand?"
Qu Linlang felt warm in her heart, but still nodded calmly.
"Bad dad, why haven't you come yet? Mom has left first." Murong Yue's anxious voice came from outside the door, and then her chubby little body squeezed to Murong Yanhui's side and grabbed his lapel.
Murong Yanhui smiled helplessly at Qu Linlang, then hurriedly followed Murong Yue out of the backstage.
Yu Qingli walked to the entrance of the "Beauty House" and looked around. Xiluo asked in confusion, "Miss, what are you looking for? You just ran out of nowhere."
Yu Qingli frowned. She had clearly seen Murong Feng's back in the box just now, so how could he disappear in the blink of an eye? Could it be that she was dazzled?
Yu Qingli thought in her heart and slowly walked down a step. She was wondering why Murong Feng came to the "Beauty House" and whether she had seen something wrong, when a tall man had already walked behind her.
"Girl, we meet again."
The cold voice carried a sense of authority, which further highlighted his alienation and indifference. He looked coldly at Yu Qingli, a woman who was praised as extremely intelligent by the people of Canghe. He thought, in the public eye, no matter how reserved and noble she was, she probably couldn't pretend that he didn't exist, right?
Yu Qingli felt a chill down her spine and guessed who was behind her.
Those who come with bad intentions will not be welcomed by those with good intentions. Yu Qingli knew that if she turned around, she might get into trouble for no reason. So, she lowered her head, tugged at her skirt, and pretended not to hear anything and said, "Xiluo, we've been out for a long time. It's time to go back."
Xiluo glanced at the man whose face was the same green as his eyes, and directly called the waiter from "Beauty House" to lead the carriage.
Xiao Er had just handed the reins to Xiluo. When Yu Qingli was about to get on the car, there was a gust of wind behind her and the blue-eyed man was already blocking Yu Qingli.
"How dare you!" Xiluo moved sideways and was about to squeeze in front of Yu Qingli, but the blue-eyed man seemed to have eyes behind him. He raised his right hand and blocked Xiluo's way.
Yu Qingli frowned, waved her hand to stop Xiluo, and said coldly: "A good dog doesn't block the road, so why do you regard yourself as a dog?"
The blue-eyed man raised his eyebrows, and then a slight curve appeared on his lips. "Young lady, you are so angry. I just want to express my gratitude to you."
"Now that I've thanked you, please make way." Yu Qingli said as she was about to walk around the blue-eyed man to get into the car, but the blue-eyed man blocked Yu Qingli's way again.
Yu Qingli finally couldn't help but glared at him. The blue-eyed man looked at Yu Qingli's anger, but the smile on his lips became more intense.
The atmosphere suddenly turned cold, and more and more people gathered around, but no one dared to move forward.
"Where did this scoundrel come from who is so blind as to block Lili's way?"
Suddenly, a lazy voice broke the tense situation. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw the crowd slowly making way.
Murong Yanhui's lazy and cynical smile appeared in Yu Qingli's eyes. He held Murong Yue's hand and looked at the blue-eyed man with a smile in his eyes. However, that harmless expression startled Yu Qingli.
Murong Yan replied that she was very familiar with this shameless man. The more brightly he smiled, the more dangerous he was. He hid all his murderous intent in that seemingly harmless smile.
Yu Qingli felt something was wrong. This blue-eyed man had an unknown origin and looked a little unusual. She didn't want to get into any trouble or spread any bad rumors as soon as she left the palace.
Yu Qingli thought of this and immediately stepped forward and took Murong Yanhui's hand, "Let's go! We'll talk about it when we get back!"
All of Murong Yanhui's anger disappeared in the face of Yu Qingli's cold gaze. He stretched out his hand and directly grasped Yu Qingli's waist, then flew onto the carriage parked not far away. Behind him, Xiluo also followed closely with Murong Yue in his arms.
As soon as they got on the carriage, the driver whipped it and drove towards the palace.
The carriage sped along, making for a bumpy ride. Murong Yanhui still looked unhappy, "Lili, why are you protecting that Persian man? They can't run wild on Canghe's territory."
Yu Qingli frowned, "Don't you think what happened today is very strange? That Persian seemed to have come looking for us on purpose, but we clearly don't know him!"
After hearing what Yu Qingli said, Murong Yanhui remembered the scene he had seen before. Although he felt a little sorry for himself if he said it out loud, he also felt a little sorry for Yu Qingli if he didn't say it.
"Lili, guess who I saw in the Beauty House just now?"
Seeing Murong Yanhui's eyes full of interest, Yu Qingli politely guessed, "Could it be a prince in the palace?"
"Lili is indeed very smart, but let me put it bluntly, it's Murong Feng!"
Yu Qingli was a little surprised when she heard this, "You mean Murong Feng?"
"Lili doesn't believe it?"
"It's not that I don't believe it, I'm just a little surprised. What is Murong Feng doing here?" Yu Qingli suddenly became curious. The appearance of Murong Feng and the cold Persian man made her vaguely feel that there seemed to be some connection between them. She shook her head slightly, hoping that she was overthinking it.
