Chapter 70: Prince Yan is coming to stay at Mu Mansion
"Your Highness Prince Yan, as a prime minister, my father certainly understands the principle of supporting the right rather than the relatives!" Mu Lanfeng replied with a faint smile.
It sounded like it was said for Mu Xun, but Mu Xun felt it was very uncomfortable and even a bit weird.
Mu Xun glared at Mu Lanfeng fiercely, then turned to explain, "Your Highness, I am also considering the overall situation. Although there is no war in the northern border at the moment, the tribes near the border are not peaceful and may provoke a war at any time. General Zheng has been leading troops to garrison the northern border for many years and is very familiar with the terrain of the northern border. If it were someone else, I am afraid..."
"So, it seems that I have misunderstood Prime Minister Mu?" Li Zeqi frowned.
"Your Highness, you worry too much. I am very grateful to you for protecting my daughter!" Mu Xun replied calmly.
"Lanfeng is my future princess, so of course I have to protect her well!" Li Zeqi said, looking at Mu Lanfeng lovingly.
At this time, Jiang also walked behind Mu Xun, still with a professional smile, "Your Highness is right, we are all family, why are you still talking about helping or not helping!"
Mu Baiying also took the opportunity to stand beside Jiang, dressed in white, standing tall and graceful, dignified and generous. She was born with outstanding appearance, thin figure, regular features, and was a top-notch beauty.
In order to attract Li Zeqi's attention, she tried very hard, tilting her head from time to time to fiddle with the hair on her temples with her hands, and occasionally letting out a few soft coughs.
Even so, Li Zeqi never looked at her directly. His eyes always went to Mu Lanfeng and he didn't take her seriously at all.
"Madam is right, and my father also said that if Lan Feng feels that he has no feelings for me, I will be thick-skinned and move in with him for a few days to cultivate our relationship!" Li Zeqi smiled lightly, and his words became very amiable.
"no!"
Without waiting for Mu Xun to speak, Mu Lanfeng spoke up to stop him.
"Why not?" Li Zeqi asked with a smile.
"Because..." Mu Lanfeng forced a smile and was racking his brains to come up with a reason that could convince Li Zeqi.
"Because I haven't made up my mind yet, and I haven't received the imperial edict. If Your Highness doesn't want to marry me in the future and just lives in your mansion, how can I get married in the future!" Mu Lanfeng said casually.
"Your Highness, what my daughter said makes sense!" At this time, Mu Xun knew it was time to come out and help.
"Your Highness, girls still have to consider their reputation!" Jiang also said from behind.
Naturally, she didn't want Mu Lanfeng to marry King Yan, otherwise he would always be above her in the future.
The three of them each have their own reasons and ulterior motives, and if you don’t know them, you would still think that this family is so united.
"What you said makes sense. Prime Minister Mu, please prepare a yard close to Lanfeng for me. To avoid any further trouble, I will move in tomorrow!" Li Zeqi said without hesitation.
Why doesn't this man play by the rules?
Mu Lanfeng glared at Li Zeqi angrily, but he didn't expect that Li Zeqi didn't take him seriously at all. He joked, "You haven't even come yet, but you're already flirting with me! It seems that it's right for me to move in." He paused, and then continued, "There's no need to wait until tomorrow. You can move in today. I'll go back and prepare and come in the evening!"
"This……"
Before everyone could react, Li Zeqi started talking to himself and finished saying everything. Everyone was stunned for a long time before they reacted!
"Your Highness, this is probably too hasty. I still have to order people to clean up the yard!" Mu Xun knew that although it was useless to say this, he still said it unwillingly.
After all, it is inconvenient to have an outsider living in your own home, and this outsider is a prince.
"Don't worry, Prime Minister Mu. If you don't have enough manpower, I will ask the people from Prince Yan's Mansion to come and help!"
Mu Xun's face was dark. It was useless for him to say anything now. Li Zeqi was determined to move in. He looked at Mu Lanfeng expressionlessly, then turned around and said with a smile: "Your Highness, don't bother the people in Prince Yan's Mansion. I will just send more people!"
"That's good. I'll take my leave now. Thank you for your hard work, Prime Minister Mu!" Li Ze said, and then turned his eyes to Mu Lanfeng, "Prince Mu, I'll have to trouble Lanfeng to see me off!"
Oh my god! How could someone be so shameless!
Mu Lanfeng refused. She wanted to scold Li Zeqi and send him away!
Mu Xun had no choice but to order: "Lan Feng, go and see His Highness off!"
Mu Lanfeng gritted her teeth and replied, "Yes! My daughter obeys your command!"
She turned around and said to Li Zeqi with a fake smile: "Your Highness, please, I will take you out!"
……
After leaving the main hall, there was a corridor. Li Zeqi walked in front, followed closely by Mu Lanfeng, and the guard Qin Qianyou was far away.
"Are you satisfied now? Li Zeqi, what do you want to do? I saved you with good intentions, you can't repay me with evil!" Mu Lanfeng called him by his name and questioned him angrily.
"If it were someone else, I wonder how many times he would have died?" Li Zeqi said with a smile.
Mu Lanfeng paused for a moment, then ran after him and said expressionlessly, "Kill me if you can!"
“Hahaha!” Li Zeqi raised his head and laughed. He looked at the little girl in front of him and teased, “I can’t bear to let her go!”
"You..." Mu Lanfeng was so angry that he was speechless.
"The king needs your help!" Li Zeqi suddenly lowered his voice, as if he had become a different person, with a very serious expression.
Mu Lanfeng was startled by this sudden change, "What's wrong?"
"I am being hunted by someone and have to hide in the mansion for a few days, so I have to resort to this desperate measure!" Li Zeqi's expression was still serious, and it didn't sound like he was joking.
"Your Highness, while you are hiding in the Mu Mansion, have you ever thought about the safety of everyone in the mansion?" Mu Lanfeng asked.
"Those people want my life, and they dare not do anything to the Mu family!" Li Zeqi replied.
"Okay, I'll trust you for now!"
Li Zeqi waved to Qin Qianyou who was not far away, motioning him to come over, and then smiled and said to Mu Lanfeng: "It is true that this king wants to marry you as his concubine!"
Mu Lanfeng's heartbeat inexplicably quickened, and a blush appeared on her face. Her cheeks were red, and she looked very cute.
"Your Highness always knows how to make fun of me, so I was sent here!" Mu Lanfeng said angrily with a red face.
At this time, Qin Qianyou also walked behind Li Zeqi at the right time, "Your Highness!"
"Let's go!" Li Zeqi took one last look at Mu Lanfeng and walked out of the Mu Mansion.
After seeing Li Zeqi off, Mu Xun hurriedly sent a dozen people to start cleaning the Tingyu Pavilion next to Ziyunxuan. No one had lived there for a long time, so it was very difficult to clean. A dozen people cleaned until late in the evening before it was barely habitable.
Li Zeqi did not show up as promised, and was nowhere to be seen until dinner time. Everyone thought he would not come, so they stopped waiting...
