I don't want to be the favorite concubine of this palace anymore

Chapter 191: Transferring the Audience Overnight

Li Rui put the pendant away, then went out and played the bone flute. Two subordinates quickly gathered around him.

Several people disappeared into the night again.

After returning to the hotel, Li Rui instructed his men: "Collect all the information about Feng Qingyu as quickly as possible in the next few days, from childhood to adulthood. The more detailed the better."

"Yes."

"Okay, everyone is tired, let's go down and rest."

Li Rui was indeed very tired after traveling long distances in the past few days. He washed up casually and fell asleep holding the jade pendant.

In his dream, he seemed to see An Muxi. She was on a mountain, locked in a dark room, crying all day long.

He was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe and woke up suddenly.

Could it be that Xi'er had come to him in his dream to ask for help? In fact, he had always doubted Xi'er's origins, and always felt that she didn't seem to be from here.

How could a woman of this era have so many strange ideas in her mind? How could she be as rebellious as her? She had given herself to him but still tried desperately to leave.

There are so many unexplainable things about her, but her existence seems to be very reasonable.

It was her intelligence and mystery that slowly attracted him to explore and pay attention to her, until he fell in love with her uncontrollably.

Regardless of whether she was the original An Muxi or some other monster, he had identified her and didn't want to let her go.

At this moment, An Muxi was sent to a mountain a hundred miles away from the capital of Tianqi overnight.

There is a Taoist temple called Taihe Palace on the mountain.

Because she arrived in the middle of the night, she didn't see the surroundings clearly and was just arranged in an ordinary room.

Feng Qingyu came here with her and lived next door to her.

An Muxi now hoped that Anlong could find her as soon as possible, but was also worried that he would be in danger when he arrived at Feng Qingyu's territory.

After all, a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, and Feng Qingyu is not an incompetent person.

Finally, she fell asleep tiredly.

In the morning, as soon as she opened her eyes, she heard a knock on the door.

"Miss, I'm Xiaoli, are you awake?"

"Come in." She had a pretty good impression of Xiaoli, a well-behaved little maid.

Xiaoli came in with hot water, helped her wash up and combed her hair.

"Your Highness, please come over for breakfast."

An Muxi stood up. She felt like a puppet, being manipulated by others.

But she has always been open-minded and would not do anything stupid just because she is unhappy. There is no need to make herself suffer.

Xiaoli led her into a dining room where several people were already sitting at a long table.

At the top is an old Taoist priest who looks a bit like an immortal.

The first person on the left is a middle-aged woman dressed as a nun, and next to her is a gentle and beautiful young woman.

The first person on the opposite side was Feng Qingyu. The seat next to him was empty. Below him was a pretty young woman. Behind him were two young men dressed as Taoist priests.

This is indeed a Taoist temple. Feng Qingyu said he came to his master's place, so it seems that the old Taoist priest is his master.

As soon as she entered the room, Feng Qingyu saw her and quickly called out, "Xi'er, come and sit down."

The pretty girl next to him pouted, a little dissatisfied. That position was originally hers!

Everyone looked at An Muxi with different expressions.

An Muxi walked to Feng Qingyu without changing her expression, sat down, lowered her eyes, and let the others look at her.

Feng Qingyu introduced the old Taoist priest, "Master, this is my future Crown Princess!"

An Muxi didn't say anything, and clenched her hands into fists.

The pretty girl next to him said dissatisfiedly: "Brother, which mansion is she from? Why have you never mentioned her?"

The gentle woman opposite also looked at An Muxi thoughtfully.

Feng Qingyu coughed lightly: "Don't worry about it. She will be your sister-in-law from now on. We will live in the mountains for a while recently. Please help me take care of her."

Then Feng Qingyu said to An Muxi: "Xi'er, the one at the top is my mentor, Taoist Yuxu, the one opposite is my master's wife, Taoist Huiming, the one next to her is my junior sister Hanyu, the one next to you is my junior sister Bixia, the one behind..."

Feng Qingyu introduced everyone present to An Muxi, but she knew that these names were Taoist names, not real names.

Here we don’t address people according to worldly hierarchy, only Master, Brother, and Sister.

Feng Qingyu's seniority is higher than those two young women, but lower than the other two Taoists.

An Muxi would not offend Feng Qingyu in public. It would do her no good to anger him now. She could only wait.

She stood up and politely greeted Feng Qingyu's master and mistress. Then she bowed to Hanyu and Bixia as equals.

He also called out to the other two Taoist priests, "Hello, Senior Brother."

Feng Qingyu smiled faintly as she watched her greet everyone, her eyes full of fascination, as if the previous unpleasantness had never happened.

The old Taoist priest nodded without saying anything: "Okay, you can just stay here peacefully. Miss An, don't be restrained, let's eat."

An Muxi nodded without being polite. Seeing that the Taoist priest had spoken, everyone started eating.

It seems that this group of people can get married, have children and eat meat. There are some meat in the dishes, but the taste is lighter.

Everyone finished their meal quietly. Feng Qingyu pulled An Muxi and said, "Come on, I'll take you around."

"Senior brother, I want to go too." said the woman named Bixia.

"Senior Sister Hanyu is going too. You are so biased. Have you forgotten about us now that you have Miss An?"

Feng Qingyu looked at An Muxi awkwardly: "Xi'er, if you don't mind, I..."

"Don't mind, let's go together." An Muxi felt that the two junior sisters' eyes when they looked at Feng Qingyu were not pure.

But she didn't care. She just didn't want to be alone with Feng Qingyu.

Feng Qingyu was helpless. He hoped that An Muxi would show her dissatisfaction so that he would have an excuse to be alone with her.

He knew that An Muxi must hate him in her heart now, so he wanted to save the relationship, or at least make her happy.

Seeing her expressionless face now, with the former cunning and smartness completely gone from her eyes, he felt very uncomfortable.

Bixia came over and pulled Feng Qingyu's other arm: "Brother, where are you taking us?"

Feng Qingyu slapped her hand away and pretended to be unhappy: "Don't be silly, let's go to the back mountain to see the peach forest. The peach blossoms should be blooming now, right?"

Hanyu said softly, "Yes, it's early spring, the peach trees are just blooming, and the scenery is just right now."

"Okay, let's go to the peach forest in the back mountain." Feng Qingyu said as she took An Muxi's hand and walked towards the back mountain.

Bixia's face darkened. She stared at the two people holding hands without saying a word.

Hanyu glanced at the backs of the two people in front of her. She didn't expect Feng Qingyu to bring a woman with him this time, and even said that she was his future Crown Princess. She felt bitter in her heart, but she could do nothing about it.

She had no choice but to lower her head and silently follow the people in front of her. She didn't want to miss any opportunity to meet him.
