....

Young Master Li's subordinates saw the master's uselessness, but they all knew the Royal King's fame and iron wrists.

'How could they dare to move?'

Yuan Xiu went to help the Princess, and Murong Chang walked over weakly, feeling overwhelmed with fear.

"Fortunately, the Prince Regent rushed to save this Princess in time, otherwise I...

I really don't know what the consequences would have been..."

The entire lobby of the Phoenix Building became silent.

Deadly silent...

It turned out that the stunning Young Man was a woman disguised as a man, and she was the Emperor's favorite Daughter, Princess Zhaohua!

"Come here."

In front of the delicate beauty, Murong Yu didn't show any pity, and ordered his attendants to come over,

"Escort the Princess back to her Palace."

"Yes."

The attendant took the order.

"Prince Regent, this Princess is afraid..."

Murong Chang said softly, with her beautiful face as pale as paper,

"Can the Prince escort me back to the Palace?"

"The Princess' close court-lady's Martial Arts is very good.

I believe she will risk her life to protect the Princess and keep you safe and sound."

He turned away his eyes indifferently and looked at the attendant.

"Princess, please come with us."

The attendant said sharply.

Murong Ci watched the show with relish,

'My dear Sister, you'd never just return without success.'

Sure enough, Murong Chang bit her lips and glanced at Murong Yu sadly, then as soon as he took a step to leave, she suddenly fainted, leaning on him like a thin flower petal, slowly falling from the wind.

Murong Yu could only reach out to support her, and said to Yuan Xiu:

"Why are you still not supporting the Princess?"

Yuan Xiu knew the Princess' thoughts and temperament.

If she helped the Princess at this time, the Princess would have definitely scolded her to death afterwards.

However, the Royal King's request was also justified now.

'How can this servant refuse to serve the Princess as her close court-lady?

If I don't serve well the Princess, maybe he might severely reprimand me.'

"Actually this servant just now fought with those people and hurt my arm carelessly.

I'm afraid that the Princess will fall."

Yuan Xiu bowed her head and said, asking in forgiveness.

Even if she was reprimanded by him, she was still loyal to the Princess.

Murong Chang leaned on him softly, and praised in her heart:

'Good. You're not too stupid after all.'

As a result, Murong Yu hugged her and went downstairs.

Murong Chang's eyebrows trembled slightly, and her mood was particularly good:

'Murong Yu, you see, you're still in the hands of this Princess?'

With their departure, the farce came to an end.

Murong Ci thought that Murong Yu would send Princess Zhaohua back to the Palace personally, but she didn't expect that when he walked back to the lobby on the first floor, Murong Yu would have just handed her to the two attendants and ordered them to escort her carefully.

'This fellow is really as hard as iron.

A beauty was all in his arms, yet he's so unaware of his interest, that he can entrust the beauty to his attendants.'

'Princess Zhaohua now can't wake up suddenly, but she must be heartbroken, gritting her teeth and annoyed.'

Just when Murong Ci thought that the matter was over, and he should be leaving, Murong Yu unexpectedly stopped and suddenly turned around to look back with his sharp gaze coming straight down at the crowd like a cold arrow.

Her mind shrank, and her head bowed instinctively.

※Murong Yu seemed to smile but not smile, then turned and finally left.

※※(N.B.) ahahaha spotted girl! XD lol

He probably saw you from the very start!

And it's the second time you go to the Phoenix Building dressed like that with the same mask.

Sure enough he'd spot you right away!

※※

Those officials who were sweating coldly, and those guests who dared not to let out the atmosphere, heaved a sigh of relief, feeling that the sword hanging on their heads finally disappeared.

Rong Lan greeted them with a long-sleeved movement of hands,

"It's okay, it's okay.

My dear Guests, please continue to drink and enjoy dancing."

Whom of those officials would dare to stay there any longer?

They ran out faster than anyone else as if their soles slipped with oil.

Seeing Murong Ci wearing a silver mask, Rong Lan's eyes flashed and she saw her through.

Rong Lan was wearing an enchanting red dress.

She walked over with her slender waist, her jade finger slanting her sharp chin,

"My Lord..."

She said with a chuckle, as she just left the lobby and moved to a different room.
