Chapter Seven

  A horse carriage sped away on the wide street.

  As the horse carriage disappeared into the distance, enveloped in a cloud of dust, two men quietly dropped down from the high wall beside the gate of the Huainan Wangfu.

  "Master, how much interest do you have in the Princess of Huainan?" asked a man wearing a blue robe, his tone full of probing. He and the master had unintentionally passed by this place, coincidentally witnessing everything that had just happened in the small pavilion at the center of the lake in the Huainan Wangfu. The master stopped in his tracks, standing on the branch, quietly listening until the Princess of Huainan was taken away by people from the Prime Minister's residence with a divorce letter.

  His dark, ink-like eyes seemed to be staring blankly ahead, his skin was pale and pure, his features handsome, but beneath that handsomeness, he appeared slightly cold due to his pale complexion. His lightly red lips curved up, revealing a gentle smile as he said, "Guang Han, you're thinking too much." It was just a coincidence that he overheard the woman's mocking words towards Gong Feng, and he was slightly curious, after all, in twenty years, there were fewer and fewer voices that could pique his interest. Most importantly, he could tell that the woman was severely injured, yet she was still able to suppress her internal wounds, which were severe enough to consume her consciousness, and calmly confront Gong Feng, which showed her shocking strength.

  Lin Guanghan's lips were tightly pursed, his heart involuntarily tightened as he gazed at Chu Ming's unfathomable eyes. He then looked at the master in a black long shirt, his elegant and extraordinary demeanor fluttering in the wind. If it weren't for the master's innate... The current master would have already been proud of his peers, who in the world could compare to the master? But the master seemed gentle, yet was born with a cold temperament, never had anyone truly made the master happy, especially in recent years, the master became increasingly indifferent...

  "It's just my humble opinion." Lin Guanghan put away the pain in his eyes and said in a low voice. Indeed, he was overthinking, as the Princess of Huainan had a terrible reputation, and now she was even abandoned by the King of Huainan. How could such a woman possibly interest their master?

  Moreover, the master is about to marry Miss Nalan, and Miss Nalan is not only the number one beauty of Chuhua Country but also the world-renowned number one talented woman. Looking around the world, the only person who can be compared with Miss Nalan is Su Moyan, the number one beauty of Ziyue Country.

  "The actions of the King of Huainan today will surely be regretted in the future." Chu Ming still wore a gentle smile, saying softly. Just by listening to her voice, one could guess that this woman was not ordinary.

  "I dare to guess that Miss Murong's actions today are just a trick to regain the favor of King Huainan. However, now that she has been divorced, her status has plummeted. A woman who has been divorced will find it extremely difficult to remarry in the future."

  Chu Ming smiled faintly, no longer circling the topic around Murong Yi. He slightly raised his head, and the scorching sunlight splashed on his face, yet he still kept his eyes open, the darkness in front of him seemed to have a hint of hazy light due to this movement. He retracted the smile on his face, his expression cold and clear, his voice as gentle as snow: "The Emperor of Ziyue Country is profound and unpredictable. Guang Han, will this king meet with him?"

  "Even if the king of Zhen personally invites him, if the master doesn't want to go, what's wrong with that?" Lin Guanghan said with a frosty expression, without hesitation. In his eyes, the master was always high above, unmatched by anyone. The king of Purple Dragon Country wanting to see the master also had to depend on whether the master was willing!

  "Oh?" Chu Ming smiled faintly. Zhen Wang had never left the state of Purple Swallow before, and now he appeared in the same place, probably with the same purpose as him.

  The same purpose...

  Chu Ming slowly closed his eyes, and in the darkness that was all too familiar to him, he could only smile warmly. "Guang Han, get ready, I'm keeping my appointment."

  ……

  On the carriage, Murong Yi tightly closed her eyes, her face deathly pale, her clothes had long been soaked with sweat, but she hadn't made a sound, the pain inside her seemed to be gradually suppressed, but when she relaxed, it would become even more intense than before.

  Tian'er's pair of bright black eyes stared tightly at Murong Yi, not daring to make a sound. He only knew that his mother was in great pain, and the little him held a small handkerchief to wipe sweat for his mother.

  Murong Yi's eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and she had never encountered a situation like this before. Although she came from the 21st century, her family was extremely special, and she had been practicing martial arts since childhood due to her naturally unique bone structure. She received strict training from her grandfather and was the only one who had single-handedly surpassed him in both internal energy and other aspects by the time she was twenty years old. As a result, her internal energy was profound, and she wouldn't normally get sick. The current situation was unexpected, and she clearly felt that this body had never had internal energy before!

  And she came through, and actually had some internal strength. Just now at the Huainan Wangfu, she was injured in her tendons for self-defense and counterattack! Crossing over is already strange enough, but now it's even stranger!

  After a while, the pain gradually disappeared.

  She took a deep breath, and in recent days she should have been unable to move her martial arts.

  At this moment, she was finally able to calm down and face everything in front of her, and seriously sorted out all the memories of this body.

  Murong Yi, the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister of Wangyue Country, married Gong Lian as his concubine three and a half years ago. For several years, she has not been favored and has a two-and-a-half-year-old son. At this time, the world is divided into three parts: Wangyue Country, Ziyuan Country, and Chuhua Country. The three countries have similar strengths, and thirty years ago, a great war damaged the national strength of the three countries, which are now recovering.

  Chen Yao, the daughter of a deputy general, and Gong Ling were deeply in love. For years, they secretly harmed Murong Yi everywhere, finally achieving their goal. She sneered, even if Chen Yao racked her brains, she would never have thought that the current Murong Yi was not the same as before!

  What followed was everything in the Prime Minister's mansion. Although she was the eldest daughter, because her mother had passed away early, Mu Rong Yi had not been favored by her father, Prime Minister Mu Rong Chen, even though Mu Rong Yi had been framed and harmed everywhere for the past two years, when she returned to the mansion to seek his help, he did not lend a hand, but instead coldly watched from the sidelines, making it even more difficult for Mu Rong Yi.

  She let out a soft laugh. Murong Chen had wanted to see a corpse, but now that he saw her still alive, he couldn't help but wonder what expression would be on his face!

  As the sedan chair came to a stop, she held Tian'er's small hand and was about to get out when a heart-wrenching wail pierced the air in front of them.

  "My poor child, gone just like that! How can I face your mother in the underworld?"

  This voice is really familiar.

  A figure emerged in his mind, the current Prime Minister's wife Jiang Yue. Jiang Yue, who entered the Prime Minister's mansion as a secondary wife and became the mistress of the house half a month after Murong Yi's mother passed away.

  On ordinary days, Mu Rong Yi was bullied and humiliated without anyone in sight. Now that Mu Rong Yi is 'dead', Jiang Yue is the one who cries her heart out in front of everyone, her heart torn to pieces!

  Good... really good. Her mouth curved into a stunningly beautiful smile, gently looking at Tian Er, softly saying: "Tian Er, remember mother's words, if someone bullies you to the door, be sure to fiercely counterattack."

  As she finished speaking, amidst Tian'er's nods of seeming understanding, she took Tian'er's hand and stepped out of the sedan chair.
