Chapter 683: Life and Death
very step she took. Each step she took seemed to land on their heartstrings. That red dress seemed to be tailor-made for her. Under the light and shadow, she resembled a divine maiden who had strayed...If you keep hugging me like this, those two men over there are going to come charging over. 。Xiao Yu Ge Chao Qian Ting Xuan they glanced over there, just in time to see the two men looking back at them. 。"Humph, I knew that Dog King would be stingy!" Mu Huan was quick with her words and realized she had spoken the wrong thing again. She quickly changed her tune: "I meant..." 。“She's calling him Lord Dog King again,” Xiao Yu Ge said with a chuckle, “Not only is Lord Wang stingy, but your one isn't very generous either.” 。"
They both glanced at the two men, then smiled at each other. The previous discomfort vanished in that moment. " 。"Xiao Yu Ge, you have been made a county princess. I should congratulate you, but after I knew the reason behind it, I truly don't want to." 。Mu Huan felt a pang of sympathy for her. The girl had good intentions, wanting to get married, but the emperor kept getting in the way, making things incredibly difficult for them. It seemed their marriage was truly destined to be a bumpy road. 。"It doesn't matter what identity I have, it won't affect our relationship." 。"Xiao Yu sang a smile at her, the smile held so much helplessness and bitterness, only she herself could understand: "I'm sorry to you both, if it wasn't for me, your wedding wouldn't have been delayed." 。"It's alright, we agreed to get married together and be happy together. If you aren't happy, even if I do get married, I wouldn't be happy either." 。"Mu Huan really treated Xiao Yu Ge as her best friend: "By the way, there's one more thing I want to remind you about..." She hesitated on how to bring it up. 。"What's the matter"Mu Huan let out a light sigh: "I know my third brother is very persistent about you. He said that he won't marry anyone else in his life, I know he wouldn't just stand by and watch you marry someone else, so he must have some plan, and the Regent Uncle has always loved him, I'm worried...""Don't worry about anything..." 。"Xiao Yu Ge laughed and interrupted her, "A Cang is not a fool, your Regent Uncle is even more intelligent. He wouldn't start a war between two countries because of me, a mere woman. So, rest assured, everything will be fine." 。"But..." Muhuan was still full of worry. She knew San Ge's determination too well. From a young age, as long as it was something San Ge wanted, he would go to great lengths to get it. And Xiao Yuge was what he desired most; he wouldn't give up easily. 。"Alright, relax. Nothing is going to happen. Your third brother wouldn't do anything irrational because of me." 。I must return to the Prince's Manor, or else for running out like this, Your Majesty will surely punish me for disobedience. 。Xiao Yu Ge didn't believe Mu Cang would lose his rationality for her. After all, in her eyes, she and Mu Cang were just acquaintances. The so-called infatuation was nothing more than a veil obscuring the truth. 。She had underestimated Mu Cang's persistence towards her. 。"Xiao Yu Ge, you still need to be careful of Xiao Yu Fu and Fang Min Rou. I always feel that they are not good-intentioned, especially that Fang Min Rou, who always seems like she wants to kill you." 。“Having known Xiao Yuge for so long, Mu Huan knows her hardships well. Without parents to protect her, even her own sister joined forces with outsiders to deal with her. This is even more outrageous than those melodramatic plots in storybooks.” 。“There are many who want me dead, so it doesn't matter. Life and death are predetermined by fate, wealth and honor are bestowed by heaven. If it is destined, I can't escape it!” Xiao Yuge patted her shoulder nonchalantly and jumped off the stone. "Don't you think of me as a lamb waiting to be slaughtered""I know you're skilled in martial arts, and with someone like the King protecting you, but it's easy to dodge a bright arrow, but difficult to guard against a hidden one. Moreover, those women are not to be underestimated, each with countless schemes. Even if your martial arts are superior, you can't withstand their repeated schemes." 。"Well, well, if it isn't you, the princess from India." 。Let's go, look at their faces, they must be getting impatient. 。Xiao Yu Ge dragged her towards Qian Ting Xuan and the others. 。Seeing them walk hand-in-hand with smiles on their faces, Wǔ Chéngzōng also secretly let out a sigh of relief. It seemed like they had made up, and the princess shouldn't be sad anymore. 。"Young Master, Princess Wu is entrusted to you. From now on, please treat her well. Otherwise, I will definitely stand up for her." 。Xiao Yu sang the song, entrusting Mu Huan's hand to Wu Chengzong. 。"My Lady, ah no, Your Highness, please rest assured, Chengzong will treat the Princess kindly throughout all lifetimes." 。After receiving a dagger-like gaze from someone, Wu Chengzong quickly changed his tune and naturally took Mu Huan's hand in his. 。That’s about right. 。"But, Your Highness, could you please stop calling me 'little' after this I am the same age as the King. You should call me Young Master..." Wu Chengzong's words trailed off under the pressure of someone's gaze. 。
Qian Tingxuan raised an eyebrow and pulled Xiao Yuge to his side: "Little song, from now on just call him by his name! Or maybe you can call him Xiaodan..."
"No! The princess still calls him Young Master,"
“Wu Chengzong’s face instantly changed, and he quickly interrupted him.” 。Muhuan seemed to have discovered something interesting, her eyes widened as she looked at Wuchengzong, who was visibly nervous, and asked, "Xiaodan Didn't you say there was something else you weren't telling me" "No, I swear!" Wuchengzong wished he could cut Qian Tingxuan a thousand times over, but the man was the King, so how could he possibly hurt him This was his secret, after all. He couldn't let the princess know. 。 Mu Huan simply didn't believe it: "Come on, what is it" Qian Tingxuan suppressed a smile and coughed lightly: "Alright, you guys continue, we're leaving." 。"
"Princess, let's go" 。Xiao Yu sang a song and laughed as she waved goodbye to them, letting Qian TingXuan pull her away from there. 。Wu Chengzong stared at the departing figure with resentment, really wanting to fight. 。 Ke Muhuan didn't want to let him go: "Tell me honestly, what did the King say just now If you don't tell me, I'll really be angry. If you don't say it, then you don't love me!" "Alright, alright, I'll tell you, alright But, promise me, you won't laugh at me..." 。"Wu Chengzong lowered his head resignedly. He reckoned he was going to be the butt of the princess's jokes for a lifetime now." 。"I promise not to make fun of you " 。"Mu Huan raised her hand, but in her heart she was thinking, things that could be laughed about for a lifetime would never be laughed at once." 。Meanwhile, Xiao Yuge also looked curiously at Qian Tingxuan and asked, "What did you just want to say Why was Young Master scared and his face turned pale"Qian Tingxuan coughed twice and straightened his face: "I didn't say anything, just made a joke from when we were little." 。"Joke You never like to joke, I'm truly curious, come on, tell me, let me have some fun too 。Xiao Yu's song also piqued her curiosity. 。 Qian Tingxuan's expression became a little unnatural: "That, Xiaoge'er, that's someone else's business, we shouldn't talk about it. It's not strange at all, you definitely don't want to hear..." 。"razy or domineering. When this matter was settled, she would seriously consider their relationship. She did want to say that she didn't love him just now, but she suddenly couldn't bear his disappoint...
