Following Yun Luofeng's words, the main hall abruptly quieted down.
Mu Wuchen clenched his fists and suddenly stood up, his cold, arrogant gaze landing on Yun Luofeng's bewitchingly beautiful appearance. His face was cold like frost, chilling people to the bone.
"Yun Luofeng, don't be ungrateful! What kind of honor is it to become the Princess' study companion? It's a good fortune that daughters of Longyuan Kingdom's ministers won't be able to obtain even if they wanted to! Noble Consort niangniang is helping you out of good will, yet you are this impertinent! I only have one thing to tell you: Noble Consort niangniang's imperial decree doesn't allow for disobedience. You must enter the palace to be the Princess' study companion!"
His words were incredibly unyielding, with the tone he would seize her if she refused.
"Since you think being the maidservant of the Princess is an honor, then why don't you let your Mu Family's Mu Wushuang be this companion? How about it?" Yun Luofeng lazily yawned, her bewitching eyes containing a hint of a smile. She watched Mu Wuchen's increasingly livid expression with a smirk.
"How dare you!" Mu Wuchen coldly shouted, a harsh light flashing through his eyes. "Yun Luofeng, what kind of status does Wushuang have? She has magnificent talents and is endowed with both wit and beauty. She is also the future wife of the Crown Prince! I don't know how a trash like you has the courage to compare with her?! That's right! Being the Princess' study companion is an honor for the ministers' daughters, but Wushuang isn't one of those people!"
Mu Wuchen still had a sentence that he did not speak out loud, Wushuang was incredibly outstanding. How could a mere princess deserve to have Wushuang as her study companion? His Wushuang was the future empress; her status was way above that of a princess!
As for Yun Luofeng...
She was a trash, giving her this opportunity to be the princess' study companion, yet she did not appreciate it at all! Was there someone actually this stupid in the world?
Of course, the plan of Mu Wushuang and Mu Xingchou was not disclosed to Mu Wuchen! With Mu Wuchen's arrogance, he would surely sneer at their scheme! So he still could not figure out why would his own aunt let a trash be the Princess' study companion.
Weren't they afraid that she would neglect the princess?
Yun Luofeng glanced at Mu Wuchen's icy face from the corner of her eyes, smirking, "Will you get lost on your own, or would you rather make me throw you out?"
"Yun Luofeng!" Mu Wuchen furiously clenched his fists, his veins popping out of his forehead, "You will really disobey Noble Concubine's imperial decree?"
Yun Luofeng raised her eyebrows. "If I didn't guess wrong, she decided the matter about me being the princess' study companion on her own, and the Emperor is in the dark. Why don't you enter the palace and ask the Emperor whether the child of a meritorious minister only deserves to be the study companion of a princess? I'm not sure if he would have the nerve to force me to enter the palace!"
Based on the dog emperor's act of sending Ye Ling to stab the General Estate in the back, Yun Luofeng could see that the current Emperor would not shed all pretense of cordiality with the General Estate yet. Moreover, the dog Emperor still planned to take advantage of Ye Ling to set her up, how could it be possible that he would have her enter the palace during this time?
In this respect, she could tell that this was definitely Noble Consort Mu acting on her own, and the dog emperor was unmistakably unaware!
"Alright!" Mu Wuchen's eyes darkened, and he coldly snorted before saying, "Yun Luofeng, you missed this opportunity to be promoted, so don't regret it in the end! When that time comes, even if you beg and scream wanting to be the Princess' companion, no one would bother with you. Let's go!"
He flung the sleeves of his robe before sullenly turning around to leave. Mu Wuchen's internal wrath could be perceived from those hurried steps.
"It turns out all nobles are this conceited," Elder Rong icily said with laughter. "Yun'yatou, it looks like you're able to handle today's affair yourself, so this old guy won't meddle in your affair. If you need anything else in the future, just come to the Medical Pavilion to let me know, and I will definitely do everything in my power to help!"
