Chapter 127 Why hasn’t the King of War entered the palace yet?
Murong Zixi glared at him fiercely, then gently opened her lips and uttered a firm and powerful sentence: "Who wants your money!"
Jun Feimo's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a playful smile. He raised his eyebrows and asked in a teasing tone: "What does Xier want? Do you want to use me in exchange with you?" There was a hint of teasing in his voice.
When Murong Zixi heard this, her brows furrowed slightly, and dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes. Her gaze was like a sharp sword, piercing straight at Jun Feimo, and her tone was full of displeasure: "I want those secret guards who follow me secretly."
Jun Feimo's face darkened instantly, and a trace of barely perceptible grievance flashed in his eyes. His voice became low and gentle, as if he was hurt: "Xi'er, am I not as good as a few secret guards?" His eyes revealed a deep sense of loss.
Murong Zixi stared at Jun Feimo closely and said word by word: "Jun Feimo, do you want to change or not? If you agree, I can give you some more bullets as a reward."
This sentence was like a bombshell, causing a huge wave in Jun Feimo's heart. He was stunned. He had never expected Murong Zixi to put forward such a condition. He originally just wanted to make a joke and tease her, but he didn't expect her to be so serious and earnest.
"Xier, those secret guards were originally given to you." Jun Feimo's voice was somewhat helpless and compromising, as if he felt a little powerless towards Murong Zixi's persistence.
Murong Zixi was not moved by this. She just shook her head slightly, then took out ten bullets and a bottle of medicine powder from her arms and placed them gently on the table.
"Here, consider these as an exchange between me and you." Murong Zixi's voice was as calm as water.
Jun Feimo frowned slightly, his eyes became deeper and deeper, staring at Murong Zixi closely.
"Does Xier really want to distinguish herself from me so clearly?" Jun Feimo's tone revealed a hint of disappointment.
Murong Zixi avoided his deep gaze, a barely perceptible uneasiness flashed in her eyes, but she soon regained her composure and said softly, "Aren't you afraid that you'll run out of bullets? I'll give you ten and teach you how to load them. Give me the pistol."
Jun Feimo stared at Murong Zixi and was silent for a long time.
Finally, he silently took out a pistol from his arms and handed it to Murong Zixi.
Murong Zixi took the pistol, she skillfully removed the magazine, and then loaded the bullets into it one by one.
Throughout the whole process, her movements were smooth and natural, as if she had practiced them countless times. At this moment, her focused expression and skillful movements made people fascinated.
"Xier, where did you get this thing? Why have I never heard of this thing after checking all the hidden weapons in the world?" Jun Feimo's voice was filled with curiosity and confusion, and he couldn't help but ask again.
Murong Zixi raised her eyebrows, a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Do you want to know?"
Jun Feimo nodded, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.
Murong Zixi said lightly: "I won't tell you." After saying that, she winked playfully.
Jun Feimo smiled helplessly. He knew Xier had a secret. Well, he decided to wait until Xier was willing to tell him.
Murong Zixi stood up and gently smoothed the wrinkles on her clothes with an elegant and natural movement. She turned slightly and prepared to leave.
Jun Feimo called her, "Xi'er, it's still early, stay and have some tea with us, or I can go shopping with you."
Murong Zixi stopped and looked back at him. She muttered to herself that being alone with Jun Feimo always made her feel uneasy, as if there was a potential danger lurking.
She was worried that she would be drawn into the whirlpool of emotions she had for him.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Tianyi's voice came from outside: "Master, I have something to report."
Murong Zixi felt relieved. She walked to the door without hesitation, opened the door, and quickly left the room.
Tianyi was stunned when he saw Murong Zixi's departing back.
He felt as if he had disturbed the intimate moment between his master and Miss Murong, and suddenly felt embarrassed.
Tianyi felt the coldness emanating from Jun Feimo and shivered involuntarily.
He walked into the room with gritted teeth and reported to Jun Feimo carefully.
Jun Feimo glanced at Tianyi indifferently and asked in a cold tone: "What's the matter?"
Tian Yi replied terrified: "Master, the secret guard just sent a message that the Queen Mother wants you to enter the palace."
"What's the matter?" Jun Feimo frowned, his eyes sharp.
Tianyi glanced at Jun Feimo nervously, then quickly lowered his head and whispered, "According to the secret guards, Qi Simiao, the granddaughter of the Duke of Qi, was also summoned into the palace by the Queen Mother today."
Jun Feimo's face instantly turned gloomy when he heard this. The Queen Mother's move was self-evident. Jun Feimo left the restaurant with a gloomy face.
Inside the Cining Palace, at this moment, the Queen Mother was gazing at the beautiful woman in front of her - Qi Simiao.
The Queen Mother gently raised her hand, a amiable smile appeared on her face, and she said affectionately: "From now on, I will call you Miao'er, so as to avoid those red tapes and alienate our feelings."
When Qi Simiao heard the Queen Mother's words, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, outlining a gentle smile. Her eyes flashed with gratitude and humility, and she replied softly: "It is an honor for me to receive such love from the Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother looked at Qi Simiao carefully, with satisfaction in her eyes.
She had a graceful figure and a temperament as fresh and refined as an orchid in a valley. Her skin was as white as snow, delicate and smooth, like white jade. Her eyes were bright and clear, like a clear spring, which made people love her.
Qi Simiao's hair is as soft as silk, gently brushing against her ears, making her look even more graceful and charming.
Her clothes are simple and generous, yet elegant and noble. Her words and actions reveal her extraordinary talent and upbringing, which reminds people of the saying "A man of culture is naturally elegant."
The Queen Mother secretly admired her in her heart, thinking that only such a woman could be worthy of her arrogant son, Prince Zhan Jun Feimo.
The Queen Mother's eyes inadvertently swept over the nanny beside her and asked softly, "Why hasn't Prince Zhan entered the palace yet?"
The nanny stepped forward and replied respectfully, "Her Majesty, perhaps Prince Zhan was delayed by something."
The Queen Mother frowned slightly, her face showing displeasure, and her voice was a little impatient, "Humph! What could be delaying him?"
Seeing this, the nanny naturally didn't dare to say anything.
The Queen Mother snorted softly, her expression slightly relieved, "Forget it, just wait."
