Demon Wang's Golden Favorite Fei
Page 24
That’s right, it’s apple! Thinking till here, Feng Cang moved his gaze to Murong Qi Qi’s not thin nor thick pair of red lips. Don’t know if the taste there also has the smell of apples! Sentimental with a slight sweetness…….

If Murong Qi Qi knew that Feng Cang’s mind was now full of thoughts on how to explore the taste of her lips, she would’ve let a slap hit his face. She would’ve let the hand Feng Cang loves so much go greet his devilish beautiful face.
“Wangye1, is it not better if you go change clothes… ….”
Although Murong Qi Qi wiped off the rice on Feng Cang’s face, the soup on those white clothes couldn’t be removed.
Murong Qi Qi wiped it for quite a while before finally giving up. She hanged her head guiltily like a child who did something wrong and was waiting to be scolded by an adult.
That look was so well behaved and so cute, making Feng Cang really happy. Then he looked at his clothes. It’s indeed dirty.
If it was a normal day, Feng Cang would’ve long gone to change his clothes, but today’s different. Murong Qi Qi was still here. Besides, the people here were not easy… …Thinking till here, Feng Cang asked Murong Qi Qi in a low gentle voice: “Qing Qing, is it alright if I leave for a moment?”
“Is it alright?” It’s not asking Murong Qi Qi if he can leave, but it’s asking Murong Qi Qi whether or not she can deal with the situation.
Seeing Feng Cang being so careful, Murong Qi Qi finally revealed her first sincere smile of the day: “It’s not like wangye wouldn’t come back. I will wait for you here.”
A ‘I wait for you’ made Feng Cang’s heart jump. So having someone waiting for you is so wonderful.
“Wait for me!” Feng Cang pressed Murong Qi Qi’s hand. He stood up, swept his gaze over the crowd. His gaze especially stayed on Longze Yu Er, making her tremble.
Knowing that Feng Cang was worried that while he’s absent, Longze Yu Er would make trouble for her, hence the glaring, Murong Qi Qi was somewhat touched.
So far, the care that this man has shown her was not fake. If his concern is false, then he can simply go and be an Oscar winner.
“I’ll be back soon… …”
Feng Cang, under the guide of servants, went to a side hall to change. The atmosphere at the Hall of Supreme Harmony became more lively because of his departure.
They didn’t see Feng Cang scold Murong Qi Qi, some people felt slight regret. They were hoping to add salt to the wound. Shortly afterwards, dancers came up. The scene became bustling again.
Longze Jing Tian’s gaze seemed to always be falling on Nan Feng’s princess Ming Yue Xin, making Murong Xin Lian, who’s sitting next to him, feel sour. She’s now more sure that Longze Jing Tian had taken a fancy to Ming Yue Xin and she’s also more uneasy and worried about her future.
After thinking for a moment, Murong Xin Lian finally stood up. She’s the number one beauty in the capital and her talent is also outstanding. She can’t be pressed down like this by Ming Yue Xin. She must also show people her dance skills and attract Longze Jing Tian’s heart.
Murong Xin Lian volunteering to dance made Longze Yu very happy. Ming Yue Xin’s dance was superb. Xi Qi country couldn’t do a bad job compared to Nan Feng country.
“Zhen2 gives permission!”
Seeing Murong Xin Lian dance, both Duanmu Qing and Murong Xue Lian revealed a mysterious smile. Two pair of eyes closely watched Murong Xin Lian’s belly. They didn’t even leave for a second.
Although knowing that she’s pregnant and needed to rest, but now in the moment between life and death, Murong Xin Lian didn’t want to give up the position of wangfei3 like this. She’s gambling, gambling with the child in her belly. If she loses the child, but get Longze Jing Tian’s favor, get the position of wangfei, then why shouldn’t she do it? If the child is alright and she can be wangfei, then that’s even better!
Child, mother’s future is relying on you now. You must live up the expectations, ah! When she got on the scene, Murong Xin Lian gently touched her lower abdomen.
This action went into Longze Jing Tian’s eyes. He sneered. This woman must’ve become crazy from wishing for power! In order to chase fame and fortune, she even gambled her child’s life. To this child, having such a mother is simply the saddest thing……
After seeing such action from Murong Xin Lian, Longze Jing Tian couldn’t help but think about his own mother consort Xian He Xin Er.
He Xin Er has passed away for many years, but her voice and expression remained in Longze Jing Tian’s heart. In the past, the imperial physician diagnosed that her body was too weak to have children, but after getting pregnant, she insisted on letting the child be born. That’s why there’s Longze Jing Tian.
Although for the next five years, He Xin Er spent her days in bed because of a too weak body and she also lost Longze Yu’s favor because of this, the love she had for Longze Jing Tian was the greatest and the most selfless. Even at the time when she had to leave this world, she didn’t forget to request Longze Yu to look after Longze Jing Tian.
Compared with He Xin Er, Murong Xin Lian doesn’t even have the right to be a mother! She also isn’t qualified to be a mother! Longze Jing Tian humphed coldly. In his heart, he has long sentenced Murong Xin Lian to death.
Murong Xin Lian couldn’t fathom Longze Jing Tian’s mood. Her body swayed according to the music. She danced Xi Qi country’s national dance—-picking tea dance.
Murong Xin Lian’s dress was too gorgeous. It didn’t express the meaning of the dance very well, but her dance was quite good. After all, for the title of the number one beauty, she also paid a lot of hard work. No matter if it’s the qin skills or the dance skills, she had intensive training.
The people who knew that Ming Yue Xin came here to form a marriage alliance with Longze Jing Tian, after seeing Jing wang ce fei’s4 performance, all knew what was going on. This ce fei must not be willing for the position of Jing wangfei to be taken away by another woman, that’s why she wanted to compete with Nan Feng’s princess.
It seems that there will be a good show again! Those spectators, who had lost their hearts just now because of Murong Qi Qi, revived again. Don’t know who will be the final winner after this. Many people secretly compared the two in their hearts.
As for the involved party Ming Yue Xin, at this moment, her attention was stuck on Murong Qi Qi. Compared to Longze Jing Tian, she’s now more interested in Feng Cang. And Feng Cang’s future wangfei Murong Qi Qi has now become Ming Yue Xin’s rival.
In just a moment, Ming Yue Xin got to know about Murong Qi Qi’s ‘glorious past’.
Humph! Just a rubbish who was pushed forward as the ‘scapegoat’. What right does Murong Qi Qi have to compete with her?
Ming Yue Xin doesn’t believe that Feng Cang would chose a rubbish as wangfei and that he isn’t tempted by her, a princess of a country! Men love country and love beauty. Murong Qi Qi couldn’t compete with her on beauty. Her (MQQ) family background is even more incomparable with hers (MYX). This bet, she will definitely win!
However, Ming Yue Xin is more cautious than Longze Yu Er. Just now, everyone saw Feng Cang’s care towards Murong Qi Qi. She can’t be too rash, lest she would end up like that stupid Longze Yu Er who hasn’t even gambled yet, but has already lost from the start!
At this moment, Ming Yue Xin’s mind is full of thoughts on how to grab Feng Cang’s attention and how to get his favor. She didn’t even care about Murong Xin Lian and also put all the words that He Lan Min had told her before she came here at the back of her mind.
After Murong Xin Lian stopped while panting, Longze Yu was the first to clap.
“Award!”
Longze Yu seemed very happy.
A ‘award’ made Murong Xin Lian felt that she had
already won half of it. The remaining half must rely on luck! She couldn’t help but glance at Longze Jing Tian. The first thing she wants to know is if he’s satisfied with her performance.

Chapter 48: Wangye, They Are Bullying Me
* * *
Longze Jing Tian smiled at Murong Xin Lian, this smile let Murong Xin Lian’s disturbed heart calm down. He has always been cold, but now he smiled at her. This means, after he watched her dance he likes it! Murong Xin Lian was very happy. She walked back and sat down next to Longze Jing Tian.
“Ce wangfei1, this is what empress niangniang2 awards you.”
A palace maid appeared in front of Murong Xin Lian. She put down a plate of dessert and a glass of wine down. Then she quietly retreated.
Murong Xin Lian raised her head and saw Longze Jing Tian nod at her. She knows that she just performed well. She has been praised by the emperor. This is the same as a reasurement for him. Thinking till here, Murong Xin Lian was even happier. The heat made her feel somewhat thirsty. She tasted the dessert and drank the wine.
“Emperor uncle, at Nan Feng, Xin er3 heard that Xi Qi’s imperial noble consort and Jing wang’s4 cefei are sisters. The two are number one beauties and also have numerous talents. Just now, seeing cefei’s dance, Xin er couldn’t help but admire from the bottom of my heart. It seems that all misses from Murong household are exceptional. It’s just that I don’t know if Murong third miss is also as remarkable as her two sisters……”
Ming Yue Xin’s words once again let everyone’s gaze fell on Murong Qi Qi. Knowing the other party’s intention, Murong Qi Qi lowered her head. She played with her fingers as if there was no one around. As if she didn’t hear Ming Yue Xin and she doesn’t seem to know that Ming Yue Xin is waiting for her to make a fool out of herself.
“This…….”
Longze Yu saw Murong Qi Qi’s expression, he was somewhat embarrassed and helpless.
Although Murong Qi Qi is Murong fu’s third miss, but now she has another identity. That’s Bei Zhou’s Nan Lin wang’s wangfei5. And just now everyone saw the attitude of Feng Cang towards Murong Qi Qi. Even if Longze Yu was muddle headed, he won’t go look for trouble at Murong Qi Qi’s.
At this time, the one who is the happiest can’t be anyone but Longze Yu Er. Having Ming Yue Xin’s at the head, she can just put a bit of firewood. She doesn’t believe that it won’t burn up.
“Third miss, since it’s a palace banquet, everyone is just planning to have fun. Princess Xin and Xin Lian imperial sister in law has danced a dance. Why don’t you also let us open our eyes, alright?”
Having Longze Yu Er join, this matter became even more interesting. Murong Qi Qi finally raised her head and revealed an innocent smile.
“Can it be that the edict emperor made known to the world is false? Why does everyone not know that bengong6 is already princess Zhao Yang? Or is it that a princess title bestowed by emperor less noble than a princess from the imperial family, so that why I need to be like a geisha and please the crowd to let them have fun?”
Murong Qi Qi’s words made Ming Yue Xin and Murong Xin Lian’s expression change dramatically. What does she mean? Is it making fun of their action for being like a geisha? The two glared fiercely at Murong Qi Qi, but the other party still has a ‘I’m innocent’ expression which immediately made anger rose in the two’s hearts.
“Ah, a rubbish is just a rubbish. Even if you let her wear a princess hat, she will still be a rubbish.”
Taking advantage that Feng Cang isn’t here, Longze Yu Er continued to attack Murong Qi Qi with vicious words.
Anyway, the other party has information that can be used against her (MQQ) in her (LYE) hand. If it becomes a big deal, she can just make those scandals of Murong Qi Qi public. Presumably Feng Cang won’t marry a wangfei full of misdeeds, not to mention that she isn’t a virgin anymore! These pasts of Murong Qi Qi, Feng Cang certainly doesn’t know them!
Nobody spoke against Longze Yu Er’s words. Longze Yu, Duanmu Qing and Murong Xue Lian only listened, nobody stopped her.
Seeing all of these people with the appearance of spectators, Murong Qi Qi sneered in her heart. Just now when Feng Cang was here, they were like mouse seeing cat. They didn’t even dare to breath loudly. Now they didn’t have any care and said what they wanted. Really dog eyes who looked down at people!
“What are you talking about?”
Just as Murong Qi Qi was about to counter attack, when a soft voce ringed in her ears. Feng Cang came back after changing into clean clothes.
Seeing Feng Cang, Longze Yu Er’s expression changed. She didn’t know if Feng Cang heard those sarcastic words or not……
“Wangye, you finally came back!”
Murong Qi Qi looked up with a face full of grievances. Two sparkling tears rolled in those black and white eyes for a long time, before they finally rolled down her face and fell onto Feng Cang’s hand.
“What happened?!”
Seeing Murong Qi Qi cry, Feng Cang felt that his heart was also in pain. The aura of hostility on his body also broke out.
“Qing Qing, who bullied you? After you tell benwang, benwang 7 will give you justice!”
Feng Cang’s words made Longze Yu’s heart tremble.
This Feng Cang is someone who says something and will definitely do it. Even if he is at Xi Qi country now, if he wants to kill someone, as an emperor Longze Yu is also unable to prevent it. Although Feng Cang only came with thousand eagle guards, but those thousand eagle guards are elites; one can kill hundred. It’s not impossible if Feng Cang wants his palace to meet its demise.
“They!”
Murong Qi Qi’s fingers circled around the entire banquet. She included everyone who wanted to watch a play, making Longze Yu’s little e heart shook badly
“Don’t be afraid!”
Feng Cang pulled Murong Qi Qi into his embrace and gently wiped the tears for her.
“It seems that Xi Qi country already healed from the scar of fifteen years ago. That’s why in everyone’s eyes, Bei Zhou is nothing. Feng Cang is also nothing. So, that’s why you dare to insult benwang’s beloved consort……”
Feng Cang said those words very slowly and also extremely gently as if he was just telling something and didn’t seem to have any lethal energy. But the people who heard those words, began to worry in their hearts.
Everyone knows that Bei Zhou is the strongest amongst the four countries. Their military force is also the strongest and Bei Zhou’s emperor Wanyan Lie is very ambitious. He likes the war very much and Feng Cang is a rare genius at war. Plus, the fact that this Nan Lin wang’s personality is strange. If he really uses this as an excuse to declare war, the consequences will simply be disastrous!
“Misunderstanding, all was a misunderstanding!”
Longze Yu quickly tried to save everything and also continued to send signals at Murong Qi Qi to let her explain.
Just now he has an expression that it’s not related to him and now he is begging her? Is she Murong Qi Qi so good to speak to? Murong Qi Qi’s mouth lifted. Her tears continued to spread, making Feng Cang anxious. He continued to wiped her tears. The cold aura on his body became more intense.
“Wangye, they say I’m rubbish and laughed at me that I can’t do anything. I argued, but no one believed. Everyone bet that princess Xin and princess Ping Yang will win. No one believed in me……”
Murong Qi Qi voice was very soft full of innocence and grievances, making people who just listen to the sound will willingly protect this little poor thing.
After hearing Murong Qi Qi’s words, Longze Yu almost vomited blood. What is called add oil and vinegar? What is called pour oil on the fire? How can Murong Qi Qi make up those words to have said it so smoothly? Not only was Longze Yu surprised, the othe
r people who heard those words also almost fainted.
Add oil and vinegar: exaggerate things
Pour oil on the fire: enrage people and make matters worse
It seems that this princess Zhao Yang can also invert the right and wrong! Ming Yue Cheng at a side revealed a meaningful smile. Just now he was worried that she will be insulted by people. Now it seems that his concerns are superfluous. This woman is a master at playing games!
And seeing Murong Qi Qi act ‘spoiled’ to Feng Cang, Longze Jing Tian felt strange in his heart. If he had insisted, then will the one embracing her now be him?
“Wangye, I’m not a rubbish. If you don’t believe me, I can go compete with them! Really, I won’t let you lose face!”

“Who said Qing Qing is a rubbish? Qing Qing has more capabilities than any of them! What does Qing Qing want to compete in? They don’t believe in you; I believe in you. I bet a hundred thousand golden taels that Qing Qing will win!”
One hundred thousand golden taels! The people around couldn’t help but exclaim! They heard that the Gold thread dress on Murong Qi Qi is worth ten thousand golden teals. This Nan Lin wang1 is really too generous!
