Chapter 225 Is there any other reason
With this idea in mind, when she was about to return to the capital the next day, she deliberately arrived two or three hours late and made Wu Feng wait for her at the city gate.
When she arrived, she saw Wu Feng's hair was messy and his body was covered with dust.
I thought he was angry, but when he saw her, he just grinned.
"Miss Yue, I'll drive the carriage."
"Why don't you change your clothes and pack up first?" Meng Xiyue said guiltily.
There were people coming and going at the city gate, and the air was dusty. He had been waiting here for so long, he must have eaten up a lot of dust.
"It's okay. I'm working in the mountains. It's much dirtier than this. Let's get on with it. Otherwise, we won't be able to reach the next stop before dark."
Hearing his words, Meng Xiyue choked. She was confused again. The person in front of her was a fisherman, not the pampered and clean Xie Junyi.
She lowered the curtain and said coldly, "Go back."
When they returned to the capital, Nan Rongzhi knew that she had brought Wu Feng back, so she hurried to find her.
"Yue'er, why don't you discuss this with me?"
Seeing her anxious look, Meng Xiyue raised her eyebrows and said deliberately.
"Didn't you say that the mountain was placed in my name and I had full authority over it? Why are you going back on your word now?"
"You know that's not what I meant." Nan Rongzhi said angrily.
"I would rather not have this mountain than let you do this."
She knew how deeply that relationship had hurt Meng Xiyue. She had finally gotten over it, so how could she let her fall again?
"I didn't lose anything. I got the mountain without spending any extra money. As for Wu Feng, he wants to be my book boy, so let him be my book boy for two years."
Meng Xiyue said calmly, "I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, I can tell them apart very clearly. Wu Feng is Wu Feng, and Xie Junyi is Xie Junyi. I won't mix them up. Besides, I've already let it go."
"But what if Wu Feng is Xie Junyi?"
When it comes to feelings, Meng Xiyue is too naive, and Nan Rongzhi is really afraid that she will get hurt again.
"What did you find out? Is he Xie Junyi?" Meng Xiyue's pupils shrank suddenly, and her fingers pinched the hem of her skirt hard.
"No, I don't have any evidence to prove it."
Nan Rongzhi had to admire Xie Junyi for this. Xie Junyi was very capable. On the territory of Nanrong Kingdom, he was able to change his identity seamlessly, and even he, the prince, couldn't find out.
Hearing her answer, Meng Xiyue slowly loosened her fingers and sighed, "Perhaps, the two people really look exactly the same."
"You used to be a police officer, so you should know that there are many people in this world who have no relatives but have the same appearance. This is not uncommon."
"And after spending these two days together, I feel that apart from their appearance, they are very different in other aspects. Perhaps we are overthinking it."
"But there aren't so many coincidences in the world." Nan Rongzhi said in a low voice.
"Yue'er, I want to take that position, but I don't want it to be at the cost of your happiness."
She witnessed Meng Xiyue's experiences in these two lives and knew that she had lived a very hard life.
In addition to wanting to protect the country, she also wants to protect herself.
"I know. Don't worry. I know my limits and won't let anyone hurt me again."
She couldn't control her own destiny before, but now she can, and no one can force her to do something she doesn't want to do.
"Okay, I will also send people to continue investigating Wu Feng's situation. Once they find out that he is Xie Junyi, they will immediately drive him away."
"Okay." Meng Xiyue nodded immediately.
Nan Rongzhi stayed with her for a while, told her to have a good rest, and then left the room.
As soon as I went out, I saw Wu Feng standing at the door with a bowl of soup.
"Prince."
"What are you doing?" Nan Rongzhi raised her eyebrows and looked at the soup in his hand.
"Miss Yue's foot hasn't healed yet, so I specially stewed a bowl of bone soup to nourish her body."
"Did you stew it yourself?" Nan Rongzhi asked in surprise.
"Yes, I have lived alone since I was a child, and I have always cooked for myself. My cooking skills are pretty good. Would you like to try it, Prince?" Wu Feng asked with a smile.
Nan Rongzhi looked at him suspiciously. If it was Xie Junyi, how could he cook?
"I won't drink. From now on, just let Qianxiang do this kind of thing. You are a book boy, there is no need to do these things."
As she spoke, Nan Rongzhi gave a wink to Qianxiang who was standing beside her, and Qianxiang quickly reached out to take the tray from Wu Feng's hand.
Qianxiang was a little angry. She had just said that she would send it in herself, but Wu Feng refused to give it to her and insisted on sending it himself.
Qianxiang believed in her heart that he was Xie Junyi. Although she was dissatisfied with him, she did not have the courage to confront him.
I could only stand at the door and prevent him from entering.
Now with Nan Rongzhi's support, she can finally ask for the soup with confidence.
Wu Feng hesitated for a moment, but finally let go.
"Wu Feng, since you are a book boy, just do your duty as a book boy, and stop thinking about other things that you shouldn't."
Nan Rongzhi warned coldly, "You should know that this is Nanrong Country, and I have the final say."
"Even if it means getting rid of the prince of another country, it will be easy."
"Yes, the prince has the final say here."
Wu Feng nodded obediently in response.
Nan Rongzhi knew that without evidence, he would not admit his identity.
At the same time, she was even more puzzled as to how Wu Feng knew that she wanted that mountain and was able to buy it in advance.
Did she reveal something? The bomb matter is of great importance and must not be discovered.
Not long after Nan Rongzhi left, Prince Zhennan came over again.
"I heard that you sprained your ankle. Are you okay?"
"It's just a minor injury. It will heal in a few days."
Meng Xiyue replied somewhat awkwardly.
Prince Zhennan also knew that it was a bit strange that he was here because of this matter, but he really couldn't help it.
When he knew she had sprained her ankle, he became a little restless. Later he heard that she had brought back a man who looked exactly like Prince Qi of Yuanqing State.
He couldn't help it anymore. He really wanted to ask her if she was still thinking about Prince Qi, but when he got here, he couldn't ask.
He had no right to ask this question.
Seeing him hesitating and not saying anything, Meng Xiyue found it a little funny.
"Does the Prince of Zhennan have something to say that is difficult to say?"
"Uh... nothing much, I just heard that you brought back a man?"
"Yes, a newly found servant." No one except Nan Rongzhi knew that Meng Xiyue bought the mountain.
"He was well-educated and wanted to be my disciple, so I brought him back."
"Do you keep him with you because of his talent, or is it because of something else?"
Nan Rongshen hesitated for a moment, but still asked.
Meng Xiyue raised her eyebrows. "What other reason could there be? Did the prince hear something?"
