Chapter 714: Chapter 713: The Mysterious King, They Truly Can’t Fathom Him Anymore

Yu Linglong’s heart was filled with reluctant acceptance.

Since she had acquired this face, whenever she made an appearance, Feng Yexuan’s gaze would inevitably fall upon her.

Even after Xiaoyao, that despicable woman, came into the picture and his attentions were largely diverted,

he would still spare extra glances for her.

Now, even though he knew she was not Chu Qianli, when he saw her, even if it was with hatred, he should at least have sufficient concern.

Hatred is a form of care, is it not?

Why then, upon seeing her again, was there not a trace of emotion?

No love, no hatred, his gaze as impassive as still water, with no ripples to disturb its surface.

How could he be like this?

Feng Qihe couldn’t help but take a few more glances at Feng Yexuan; his composure was unexpected.

Knowing that the woman was not the real Chu Qianli, Feng Yexuan should be eager to ask her where the real Chu Qianli was?

Why was he so calm?

Had the Fourth Prince’s skills improved further, or had he, himself, regressed?

When he learned the woman was Yu Linglong, he really couldn’t help but nearly kill her!

At this moment, what exactly was Prince Xuan thinking?

The Emperor, too, could not decipher Feng Yexuan’s thoughts. The mind of this son had never been easily understood by him.

"Xuanxuan, your father has not seen you for a long time. I summoned you to the palace this time because I wanted us to have a reunion."

He waved his hand, "Grant a seat."

Eunuch Qing immediately ordered a chair to be brought over.

Feng Yexuan didn’t say much and simply sat down in his designated spot.

Sitting opposite him were Feng Qihe and Yu Linglong.

Yu Linglong, still assuming the identity of Empress Longteng, was seated together with Feng Qihe.

"Loyal Brother, I trust you have been well." As the younger brother, Feng Yexuan was the first to offer greetings.

Feng Qihe smiled and replied, "The Loyal Brother is doing well, no need for the Fourth Prince to worry."

With a thought, he suddenly turned to grasp Yu Linglong’s hand, "Fourth Prince, the Loyal Brother has already sought approval from our father. Next month, Lili and I will marry. At that time, remember to come early, Fourth Prince, to help your brother fend off the drinks."

The Emperor, holding his cup, tensed his grip, suddenly feeling uneasy.

He did not yet know that Chu Qianli was a disguise adopted by Yu Linglong; he only knew that Feng Yexuan and Chu Qianli were supposed to be a couple.

But today, Feng Qihe and Chu Qianli had entered the palace together, and in her capacity as Empress Longteng, she had delivered a betrothal gift to marry Prince Qihe.

The Emperor was truly shocked beyond measure.

Regarding Feng Yexuan, the Emperor had already hinted at this matter when he came, hoping he’d manage to calm his anger somewhat on the way.

But after he arrived, with his cool and calm demeanor, without any reaction, it made everyone inexplicably puzzled.

The events of today were too peculiar.

Even the Emperor could not see through them.

Feng Yexuan looked at Feng Qihe and genuinely showed no hint of anger, even curling his lips with a smile, "Very good, congratulations to the Loyal Brother."

That smile even carried a slight tinge of contempt!

Feng Qihe, clasping Yu Linglong’s hand, suddenly tightened his grip.

The force was so great that a flash of pain crossed the depths of Yu Linglong’s eyes.

It truly hurt, his grip nearly crushing her bones!

But she couldn’t break with Prince Qihe now!

Without Prince Qihe as her backer, she could be killed by Prince Xuan at any moment in Beiming Country!

Before returning to Longteng, she couldn’t afford to lose even this backer.

"Thank you for the Fourth Prince’s blessing," Feng Qihe forced a smile, his words nearly squeezed through gritted teeth.

Feng Yexuan continued to smile faintly, as if he didn’t care at all about this matter.

Turning to the Emperor, he said indifferently, "Father summoned his son into the palace just to convey this news? Such a trifle could have been communicated with a few words through Eunuch Qing, why trouble Father to repeat it in person?"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone in the hall changed.

The Loyal Brother’s marriage was considered a trifle by him! Such words blatantly disrespected Prince Qihe, giving him no face at all!

What shook the Emperor was that his son truly... did not object!

This son’s stratagems were too profound; now, he was utterly inscrutable!

What exactly was going on between him and Chu Qianli?
