Chapter Eighty-Four: Footsteps in the Night


The sky was getting dark.

Xia Yifeng was flipping through the memorial while scanning Mu Yan and Mu Moheng beside her with her peripheral vision.

Seeing Mu Yan sitting on the bed with a gloomy expression, not looking happy at all, Xia Yifeng raised the corners of her mouth slightly, then picked up a pile of unread memorials, stood up and walked outside.

"Your Majesty, what are you going to do?"

Zhu Jinzhong, who had been guarding the door, couldn't help but asked in confusion after seeing Xia Yifeng's actions: "It's so late, are you still going to the imperial study room?"

"Yes."

Nodding, Xia Yifeng did not hide his tiredness and handed the heavy memorial in his hand to Zhu Jinzhong.

Said: "There is no way, what should be dealt with must be dealt with."

Without further words, Xia Yifeng slowly walked towards the imperial study room.

The moment he left the palace, all the smiles on Xia Yifeng's face disappeared, and the childish and calm expression he had when he was having fun with Mu Yan just now was nowhere to be found.

With a hint of worry, Xia Yifeng walked slowly to the study.

Pushing open the door and looking at the empty room, Xia Yifeng waited for Zhu Jinzhong to light the candle, then sat alone behind the table, lowered his head and fell into deep thought in silence.

Ice Red Snow Lotus Repeating these four words silently in his heart, Xia Yifeng's eyes flashed with light from time to time.

It is really not an easy task to get this ice red snow lotus.

Even though he vowed to make a promise to Mu Yan, Xia Yifeng still knew that it was really difficult to accomplish this matter.

Unless it was absolutely necessary, Xia Yifeng was not prepared to exchange the icy red snow lotus with Yin Bingchen under any conditions.

Because Xia Yifeng knew that if Yin Bingchen agreed and handed over the ice-red snow lotus to him, then Yin Bingchen would definitely open his mouth and make evil plans against the territory of Yixuan Kingdom.

Thinking of Tang Wei and Qi Heichu who were now in Cangming Kingdom, Xia Yifeng's brows moved slightly.

It seems that it is time for Tang Wei to take action "Your Majesty."

Just as Xia Yifeng lowered his head and meditated, Zhu Jinzhong's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Xiao Ziluo and his wife would like to see you."

After listening to Zhu Jinzhong's words, Xia Yifeng was stunned.

Because he didn't expect Xiao Ziluo and Liu Yiyi to come back so soon.

According to their speed, they should have set off immediately after they left Yun'an City.

Thinking of Liu Yiyi being raped by Murong Zixuan, Xia Yifeng curled her lips helplessly.

As the saying goes, it is difficult to guard against house thieves if you guard against them day and night.

Murong Zixuan used this trick really well.

He actually used it on the people around him, Xia Yifeng.

"Let them come in."

After giving the order, Xia Yifeng found a comfortable position in the chair and sat down lazily on it.

Squinting her eyes slightly, Xia Yifeng looked at the two people who walked in intently, smiled and nodded at them, then glanced at Liu Yiyi, who was a little pale, and asked: "Why are you back so soon?

Look at Yiyi's face. , It seems that the body has not recovered yet.”

"The Emperor" looked at Xia Yifeng hesitantly.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Ziluo suddenly fell to his knees and whispered: "This matter was caused by the negligence of my subordinates.

Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Yifeng."

Different from Xiao Ziluo's reaction, Liu Yiyi, after regaining her original sanity, has always been worried about the fact that she was tricked by Murong Zixuan.

"I'm going to Cangming Country."

"Why are you going to Cangming Country?"

He looked at Liu Yiyi with twinkling eyes.

Xia Yifeng folded his hands on his chest and sat there lazily.

Noticing the anger in Liu Yiyi's eyes, Xia Yifeng suddenly sneered and continued: "Do you think you can accomplish anything by yourself in Cangming Country?

Or do you think you are really Yin Bingchen's opponent?"

Xia Yifeng rarely treats people around him coldly, especially confidants like Liu Yiyi and Xiao Ziluo.

So when Xia Yifeng sneered and said the obvious sarcastic words, Liu Yiyi and Xiao Ziluo couldn't help but froze there.

After following Xia Yifeng for so many years, they had never seen Xia Yifeng use such a tone or say such words to them.

Even if the mission failed that year, Liu Yiyi and the two had never seen Xia Yifeng show such a mocking expression.

Liu Yiyi lowered her head without saying a word, knowing clearly in her heart that even if Xia Yifeng didn't say anything, in her heart, she must be complaining about her mistake this time.

Liu Yiyi closed her eyes in annoyance and said no more.

Xia Yifeng, who had been observing the two of them carefully, was not prepared to continue talking to them.

"You go back first, Yiyi's body needs to be recuperated.

I will find time to find you in the next few days."

After issuing the expulsion order softly, Xia Yifeng watched the two of them leave with an indifferent expression, and then closed the memorial that had just been opened in front of him.

Murong Zixuan

The figure of Murong Zixuan appeared in his mind.

Xia Yifeng recalled this man who made him feel a sense of crisis for the first time, and suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.

Murong Zixuan, is he really dead?

That day in Yun'an City, Xia Yifeng indeed set a trap to kill Murong Zixuan.

However, because the Cangming Kingdom's army rushed over later, Xia Yifeng has not seen Murong Zixuan's body with her own eyes until now.

Is the blood flowing out of the carriage really that of Murong Zixuan?

That person who fell in the carriage is really Murong Zixuan himself?

Xia Yifeng, who became more and more uneasy as she thought about it, slowly clenched her fists.

You want to see people when you are alive, and you want to see corpses when you are dead.

If Murong Zixuan is really not dead, can all the things happening now be explained?

Mu Yan guessed right, the plague that broke out around the capital must be related to Murong Zixuan.

Murong Zixuan took advantage of the way to Yun'an City to tamper with several villages along the way.

From time to time, the scene appeared in my mind appropriately, that day after Mu Moxi woke up, she cried loudly and said that he had kidnapped her.

Xia Yifeng licked the corners of her mouth, trying to figure out Murong Zixuan's plot bit by bit.

The internal energy in Xi'er's body should have been injected by Murong Zixuan.

The reason why Xi'er reacted like that to him should be the result of Murong Zixuan's Zhu Youshu.

If Murong Zixuan was not dead, he should be in Cangming Country now.

If Murong Zixuan's goal all along was Mu Yan, then it can be explained that Murong Zixuan wanted to take advantage of Xi'er's illness and then force Mu Yan to go to Cangming Country in person to meet him.

Standing up suddenly, Xia Yifeng looked straight ahead with sharp eyes.

From the day Mu Yan brought Heng'er back, Xia Yifeng felt something was wrong.

If Murong Zixuan wanted to use the children as hostages to blackmail him, wouldn't it be more advantageous to keep both Heng'er and Xi'er?

But Murong Zixuan only kept one.

Why Because one is enough The haze in his eyes gradually disappeared, and Xia Yifeng stood there with an evil smile on his lips.

Ignoring the memorial on the table, Xia Yifeng strode out of the study.

Under Zhu Jinzhong's puzzled gaze, Xia Yifeng asked him to go back and rest first, and then slowly walked back to the palace alone.

Under the dim candlelight, Murong Zheng looked at the two little ghosts on the bed with their eyes closed with a soft expression.

Xia Yifeng walked into the room lightly, waved his hand, and cleared out all the servants in the room.

"You're back."

Without looking back, Murong greeted Xia Yifeng behind him with a cold voice.

"You have something to do with me" "Yes, something happened."

Staring at Mu Yan deeply, Xia Yifeng had no intention of provoking Mu Yan's emotions in this late night.

After making a long story short and expressing his attitude to Mu Yan, Xia Yifeng sat on a chair nearby and said, "You clean up first tomorrow, and I will take you and Ruowu to the disaster area in the afternoon.

I think The plague must be resolved as soon as possible.”

"Then what?"

After listening to Xia Yifeng's words, Mu Yan was silent for a while, turned around, looked at Xia Yifeng who had closed his eyes tiredly, and asked: "After solving this problem, what are you going to do?"

"Go to Cangming Country."

The voice became smaller and smaller, and Xia Yifeng answered Mu Yan's question almost reflexively.

"I will personally go and get the ice red snow lotus back."

Xia Yifeng's ambiguous answer made Mu Yan frown.

How to get the Ice Red Snow Lotus back?

Standing up, Mu Yan walked to Xia Yifeng.

Looking condescendingly at Xia Yifeng, whose breathing was gradually calming down, Mu Yan asked tentatively: "Do you want to exchange something or are you going to sneak in and steal it?"

"I want to rob him.

I will rob him openly."

Unexpectedly, he raised his hand and pulled Mu Yan into his arms.

Xia Yifeng smelled Mu Yan's unique fragrance greedily, and couldn't help but feel more sleepy.

Rob Xia Yifeng's words made Mu Yan instantly widen his eyes and look at Xia Yifeng in surprise.

Mu Yan was about to ask if he was crazy but was stopped by Xia Yifeng's face as if he had fallen asleep.

Biting his lower lip gently, Mu Yan was thinking about Xia Yifeng's plan alone.

After breaking free from Xia Yifeng's arms, Mu Yan was completely immersed in his own thoughts.

Xia Yifeng lay curled up on the chair and fell asleep quickly.

Seeing how tired he was, Mu Yan had no intention of waking him up again.

Fuyi walked out the door, and Mu Yan stood alone in front of the door, looking at the stars in the sky.

The quiet night made Mu Yan's mind clearer, and the cool breeze blowing slowly swept away the heat in Mu Yan's body.

Mu Yan tightened the silk coat around her body and began to explore the meaning of Xia Yifeng's words just now.

A burst of light and delicate footsteps slowly reached Mu Yan's sensitive ears.

Looking up warily, Mu Yan knew that most people would never dare to come to a place like this in the middle of the night.

After all, the location she is currently in is the palace of the dignified Emperor Yixuan.

I’m so tired today.

I had a meeting in the afternoon and updated 3,000 words every three hours.

That’s it for today.

I will work overtime tomorrow and have a day off the day after tomorrow.

There will be extra shifts
