The Legend of the Resourceful Princess

As the sun shone down, Mu Ru Yue walked on a stone path with the girl. After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, they had been walking in circles. Mu Ru Yue, who had suffered in the palace, remembered this path.

After walking for about half an hour, what entered Mu Ru Yue's eyes was a two-story building. There were many peonies planted in front of the building. They all had different colors and seemed to be in tune with the phrase 'heavenly beauty'.

"Princess, this is the courtyard that the Mayor ordered me to prepare for you. Are you satisfied? If you have any complaints, please feel free to mention them. You are a noble. In this City Lord's Mansion, your words are the imperial edict. " The woman respectfully said.

When Mu Ru Yue heard this, she smiled. "Girl, you sure know how to talk."

"Thank you, esteemed wangfei, for your praises. Your servant Ling'er, if there's anything you don't understand or find it inconvenient for you to do, you can look for your servant to do it." The woman respectfully said.

"I'm very satisfied with this courtyard. Please help me thank the mayor." Mu Ru Yue said as she walked into the courtyard.

Looking at Mu Ru Yue's back, this girl called Ling Er's gaze flashed. It no longer had the respect and gentleness she showed when she treated Mu Ru Yue. Instead, it was replaced with a layer of ice. He didn't know why the Mayor would let this wangfei stay in the Peony Courtyard.

None of those who stayed in the Peony Court survived.

After Mu Ru Yue entered the courtyard, she looked around carefully. After confirming that there were no problems, he left the house and prepared to walk around.

Just as he walked out of the courtyard, he saw a white figure walking over. This person was slightly obese and he carefully ran towards them. Mu Ru Yue looked at the person in surprise and smiled when he walked over, "What is Young Master Bai Yu doing? Cautiously, those who don't know might think that you're preparing to do something bad. "

Bai Yu's nerves had been stretched taut along the way. When he heard Mu Ru Yue's words, he was initially frightened, but after confirming that the person before him was Mu Ru Yue, he became slightly surprised. "Royal Consort?" Why are you here? "

"Me?"

Mu Ru Yue pointed to the courtyard behind her and said, "This is the place I need to live at now. Why do you think I'm here? On the other hand, didn't you say that you were going to the toilet? And how would he get here? Could it be … Have you not found the latrine yet? "

Mu Ru Yue said with a faint smile.

Bai Yu suddenly became embarrassed and said, "Princess, spare me, you should know that I am just a commoner. How can I interfere in your conversation with His Highness? I obviously shouldn't have listened to the situation back then. That's why they're leaving. I hope that wangfei won't mind. "

"Oh?" Murong Yue was expressionless as she coldly looked at the person in front of her.

"Oh right, why is Princess staying in this Peony Court?" Bai Yu suddenly changed the topic, his face full of doubt. When Mu Ru Yue heard that, she asked, puzzled, "Why not?"

"This... This Peony Court was prepared by the mayor for his future wife. It was said that there were a few girls that lived here before. However, most of the girls here died within three days. Why did the Mayor bring you here? "

Bai Yu looked puzzled.

Died by accident?

Mu Ru Yue was also stunned by this explanation.

"Doesn't this mean that the city lord of Peony City wishes for this wangfei's death? How did this wangfei offend him? " Mu Ru Yue narrowed her eyes slightly. He put down his guard when he saw this man called Qing Xun. Finally, he raised his guard again.

Bai Yu explained the reason, but he still said, "I'm not very clear about that. It's just that you have to be careful."

"Oh? You still haven't told me why you're here. " Mu Ru Yue said calmly.

Bai Yu was about to leave when he suddenly stopped. However, Mu Ru Yue didn't give him any good face. Helplessly, the man could only sigh and say, "Forget about it. Who told me to owe you. Please follow me."

Bai Yu pulled Mu Ru Yue along as he spoke and headed to the west side of the Peony Courtyard.

Murong Yue originally wanted to ask this person what he wanted to do, but she didn't expect him to drag her along with him. With no other choice, she could only allow him to do as he pleased. Bai Yu had been walking carefully the entire way. Mu Ru Yue frowned. He couldn't help but want to ask him what he was doing, but then she saw him bringing her into a garden. In the depths of the garden, there was actually a cellar.

Bai Yu signaled Mu Ru Yue not to say anything and followed him down.

After entering the cellar, what entered his vision was an icy blue color.

This icy-blue flower was like luring someone into hell. The moment Mu Ru Yue saw this flower, her expression became serious.

"This place is also part of the underground palace right?" Mu Ru Yue's voice wasn't loud, but in the silence around them, it was a little out of place. Bai Yu, who was at the front, had a serious expression as he walked forward. He didn't expect that Mu Ru Yue would suddenly say that. She was instantly startled.

He didn't expect Mu Ru Yue to know about the underground palace as well.

Bai Yu nodded. "Yes, Princess, please follow me." Bai Yu pulled Mu Ru Yue along as he spoke and continued walking forward.

This underground palace was the same as the underground palace in her villa. However, this place was rather cold. They walked deeper into the underground palace. There were actually a few people standing guard in front of him. Mu Ru Yue saw Bai Yu pick up a few stones from the ground and throw them at these people.

This scene made Mu Ru Yue's eyes narrow.

In the next second, those people were all hit by the stone and fainted.

Those who were able to guard the underground palace were definitely not ordinary people. However, these people were instantly put down by Bai Yu. How could such a person be caught in the slave market? Mu Ru Yue's heart was filled with doubts as she remembered the person that had beaten her up.

This Bai Yu was the most suspicious.

But what was his purpose in doing so?

Mu Ru Yue couldn't figure it out.

"Princess, please follow me." Bai Yu continued. Mu Ru Yue was left speechless by his godly appearance. He saw a river in front of him. However, the river water had already frozen over.

On the ice, there was an ice coffin.

Bai Yu's target was this coffin.

Mu Ru Yue followed him as well. When the image of her face entered her eyes, a trace of killing intent flashed past.

Inside the ice coffin, the woman was exceptionally beautiful. Her facial features were exquisite to the extreme. This face was too familiar to her. The original owner's appearance didn't look like her, but this woman looked exactly like the one from her previous life.

"This is the future madam of the City Lord. Because she saved the City Lord, she is unconscious, and the City Lord has frozen her in this place. It is said that this is the only way to prevent the poison from spreading throughout her body." "Princess, what do you think will happen if we steal this person?"

Bai Yu's voice was filled with complacency. Then, Mu Ru Yue didn't reply.

"Princess?"

Bai Yu was puzzled. He turned around to take a look, and with this look, he felt as though he was in a bad mood. The woman stood in front of the ice coffin with a twisted expression and a crazed expression on her face. The pair of eyes that would normally cause one to be unable to hold back from sinking into deep thought reflected a gaze filled with sorrow and killing intent.

Could it be that the woman in the ice coffin had a blood feud with wangfei for murdering her father? That's not right. Wasn't the princess' father Prime Minister Murong?

Bai Yu couldn't help but ask, "That wangfei? "Why don't you give me a reply?"

"You said that the woman within it is the person that the city lord loves?" Mu Ru Yue's voice was very soft, carrying a trace of mockery.

Bai Yu's scalp went numb when he heard that, but he could only nod his head and say, "That's right. It's said that the woman in this ice coffin is the lover of the Peony City's Mayor. What? Esteemed wangfei, could it be that you know the person inside this ice coffin? "

"I don't know him, but …" This wangfei feels that this ice coffin is quite an eyesore, so why don't we destroy it, including the people inside? " Mu Ru Yue's voice was ice-cold. He had already left to push the ice coffin before Bai Yu could react.

"Princess? Don't move! "

Bai Yu didn't expect that Mu Ru Yue would suddenly push the coffin. His expression instantly turned extremely unsightly. In the next second, poison arrows were shot in their direction from all directions. Bai Yu did not care about anything else and quickly pressed his down to the ground.
