At this moment, there was no trace of hostility on her body. She was like an innocent and romantic child, struggling to save a bird.

As for her hand, it seemed like it had been injured and was bandaged with a piece of white cloth.

There was a profound, half-smile on his face.

"Your Highness …" His Royal Highness had said that he was here today to look for the Minister Lian.

"…" However, Feng Qianyue raised his hand, causing Ying Kong to quietly retreat.

Feng Qianyue looked at Lian Rongyue and walked over step by step — —

Lian Ru Yue was trying her best to tiptoe up and put the bird nest onto the tree when she heard the sound of footsteps behind her. She was startled and was about to turn around when a hand stretched over her head, took the bird nest away from her and easily put it back on the branch.

Lian Ru Yue suddenly turned around and saw Feng Qian Yue standing in front of her. A purple colored embroidered robe wrapped around his tall body and a piece of jade was worn on his waist.

The smile on her face immediately disappeared. This was really a narrow path for enemies!

"What are you doing here?" Her face was expressionless and her tone was unfriendly. Even her basic honorifics had been spared.

Feng Qianyue was stunned. He didn't expect Lian Ru Yue to slap his face right in front of the servants. The trace of a faint smile on his lips instantly faded as he spoke in a neither cold nor hot manner …

The last time I saw Eldest Miss's methods of slaying her loved ones at Old Madam Lian's birthday banquet, and today I heard that Eldest Miss had forced Little Sister Shu into the ancestral temple alone and had no one to rely on.

Heh, the meaning behind his words was that she, such a vicious and merciless person, would actually save a bird?

When it came to ruthlessness and brutality, who could compare to Feng Qianyue? Once, a slight smile from him was enough to make her yearn for him. He said, "Ruyue, it's been hard on you." Holding her hand and kneading it in her palm, she felt like the happiest person in the world.

But who knew that the person he was staring at was obviously Lian Shiya?

And now —

She really felt that he was the most disgusting man in the world. She really didn't know why her eyes were so blind back then!

Lian Ruyue's lips slowly curved into a cold smile as she coldly said:

Who said I wanted to save it, I wasn't so kind. I put it back in the bird's nest because it's still too young now, and it doesn't even puke bones when it eats, so I put it back and let its mother raise it for me. When the meat gets a little more, I'll peel it off and put it in boiling water.

"…" When the two ladies heard their eldest miss speak to the fourth prince in such a manner, their faces turned pale with nervousness. What had happened to the usually calm eldest miss?

Feng Qianyue's expression froze as well. He felt as if she was purposely teasing him, and when he recalled the An Kingdom's princess' birthday banquet, a displeased feeling instantly surged up within his heart.

"Are you deliberately trying to infuriate me?" He frowned and stared at her as he asked this question. This Lian Lu Yue always had the ability to stir up all of his hidden feelings.

"His Highness is thinking too much. I usually say that, and his highness is far above us, not something we commoners can hope for. How can we intentionally anger him?" As she spoke, Lian Yue looked away with a hint of indifference.

"Look at me! You are not allowed to evade! " Feng Qianyue suddenly felt extremely furious. He was truly unable to endure this woman's slight disdain towards him.

Looking at him? Lian Ru Yue's heart shook. Did he know how much effort she had to endure so that she wouldn't kill him on the spot? He wanted her to look at him?

She slowly turned her head, her gaze finally meeting his. Her hand secretly clenched into a fist, a myriad of emotions finally turning into a faint gaze.

A contemptuous smile appeared on her face as she said, "The reason the fourth hall came to the Prime Minister's Palace was to look for my father, right? I won't keep you any longer."

As she spoke, she walked past him expressionlessly.

"Halt!" He gripped her tightly and used a strength that could almost snap her wrist as he coldly said to the others, "All of you, step back!"

"Kacha …" Her narrowed eyes revealed a dangerous aura. If Feng Qianyue took another step forward, she would stab the sharpest point of her blade into his heart.

The Ninth Prince had said that she must ensure the safety of the Eldest Miss, so even if the other party was a prince, as long as the Eldest Miss was hurt, she would not hesitate to kill her opponent!

"All of you, leave first." Lian Ru Yue felt the cold brows' intention and endured the intense disgust from Feng Qianyue touching her as she ordered in a low voice.

"Yes." He secretly hid the concealed weapon in his sleeve and slowly retreated to a safe distance. The few servants and wives also lowered their heads and nervously left.

Under the wooden hibiscus, the breeze blew. Petals fell, and it was silent. The two of them looked at each other —

He was looking at this life. She was looking at her previous life.

"What have you done in secret?" His voice seemed to come from hell, and he had an intuition that her recent disintegration had something to do with her.

"I have done a lot of shameful things. I wonder what kind of things His Highness is talking about?" Lian Ru Yue's expression was indifferent as she quietly looked at the somewhat flustered and exasperated him. She slightly tilted her head and asked.

A dangerous aura leaked out from Feng Qianyue's eyes as he said, "You know this very clearly!"

Lian Xiyue smiled, sweet and gentle, without a single flaw. "Your Highness is joking, I'm just an inner chamber girl, I don't go out of the door all day and I'm not very close with Your Highness. How would I know about your matters? If Your Highness wants to settle debts with someone, have you found the wrong person?"

Her smile was as sweet as honey, and her eyes were as innocent as a newborn baby's.

When the wind blew, Feng Qianyue was suddenly befuddled. He even felt that he had misjudged the person before him for an instant.

Could it be …

She was always full of thorns for him, and for other reasons.

"Fourth Prince, are you alright? If you are, then I should leave now." He didn't even want to stay for a moment longer.

"Wait!" He called to her again.

"What else is there?" Lian Ruyue endured the disgust in her heart and unhappily said.

Feng Qianyue strolled over to her, looking at her with a probing gaze.

"From the first time we met in the Prime Minister's Estate, you tried your best to attract this king's attention, and every single time you ridiculed me.

However, this king regretfully tells you that I like gentle and demure women, like your third sister, but not as fierce and fierce as you. Therefore, you should stop scheming in vain. No matter what, I won't give you another glance. " Feng Qianyue also looked at her with a gaze of disdain, as if she was a pile of dirt that he felt was too much with a single glance.
