Murong Yunge sneered inwardly, but looked at him tenderly.
“Brother Qinghan, you’re just too soft-hearted.”
Feng Qinghan simply smiled and said nothing.
At this moment, the Chief Eunuch’s shrill voice rang out, “The Emperor has arrived!”
Hearing this, everyone present hurriedly straightened their clothes and looked in the direction of the voice.
When the figure, also dressed in dark blue, appeared, everyone immediately bowed their heads and knelt, beginning to kowtow. Mu Yunge also bowed in greeting.
A moment later, Emperor Feng Yang’s somewhat aged voice rang out, “Everyone, rise.”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone immediately thanked him and rose.
After Feng Yang arrived, he immediately searched the surroundings for Feng Qingjue.
Feng Qingjue was the only child born to Feng Yang’s empress, but she died shortly after giving birth, so Feng Yang doted on him.
It was precisely because of this emperor’s protection that Feng Qingjue, in the original story, developed a self-centered personality, looking down on everyone.
When Feng Yang saw Feng Qingjue, he immediately smiled and waved, “Crown Prince, come here.”
Feng Qingjue nodded and strode toward Feng Yang.
The other princes and princesses looked on in a state of indifference, but the depths of their jealousy toward Feng Qingjue were known only to them.
After Feng Qingjue arrived, Feng Yang asked him to sit down beside him before motioning for everyone else to take their seats.
Next, naturally, everyone presented gifts to celebrate Feng Yang’s birthday.
By the time everyone had finished presenting their gifts, darkness had already fallen. Soon, the various exquisite palace lanterns began to light up.
Then, a line of palace maids filed in, carrying trays and placing food on the tables.
After three rounds of drinks, Feng Yang squinted his eyes and glanced around.
Then he asked, “Is Murong Qingyue here?”
A momentary silence fell upon the room. Everyone’s eyes fell on the Murong family’s table.
At this moment, Murong Qingyue stood up and replied calmly, “Your Majesty, I am here.”
Feng Yang nodded slightly upon hearing Murong Qingyue’s words. Then he looked at her in surprise and said, “She is truly a remarkable woman. It’s a pity the Crown Prince is unworthy of her.”
As soon as these words left her mouth, Murong Qingyue clenched her fists tightly.
This abominable imperial society!
When she becomes powerful, she’ll definitely dethrone this old emperor!
Then Feng Yang continued, “However, the Crown Prince was ultimately wrong to cancel the engagement. Do you have any wishes you’d like to fulfill? I can help you fulfill them and make up for the Crown Prince’s mistakes.”
Although Feng Yang kept saying that the cancellation of the engagement was Feng Qingjue’s fault, Murong Qingyue was not a fool. Of course, she knew that Feng Yang said this for the sake of the Murong family’s reputation.
So after Feng Yang finished speaking, Murong Qingyue said with a cold expression: “This servant hopes that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can apologize to me in public!”
