Reborn Empress: The World Originally Belonged to Her

"Your Highness, I don't understand something. Why do you keep helping Shangguan Mufeng? It's clear that there's something between Shangguan Mufeng and Lan Yan..."

Mo Yun truly couldn't understand why Qin Yu kept helping Shangguan Mufeng, even though there was clearly a connection between them...

The important thing is that Mo Yun really felt sorry for Qin Yu, because Qin Yu was actually spoken to like that by Lan Yan just now.

Qin Yu is a princess, a woman of noble birth, yet she has encountered such a thing.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

Mo Yun reached out and touched Qin Yu's head. This sudden action shocked Qin Yu, who hadn't expected Mo Yun to touch her head.

"I never expected you to be here. It's quite a thrill to see you without my head. Aren't you afraid I'll punish you?"

Mo Yun shook his head and said that if Qin Yu wanted to punish him, he could just do so.

"There's something else I want to tell you. The reason I helped Shangguan Mufeng is because I signed him. So, I want to use this to repay everything I owe."

"So that's how it is," Mo Yun suddenly realized, and then told Qin Yu.

"No matter what happens, I will always be by Your Highness's side. Even if the sky falls, I will help Your Highness hold it up."

Qin Yu thought Mo Yun was really stupid. What was going on? What did he mean by saying that even if the sky fell, Mo Yun would be the one to hold it up? As a princess of a country, Qin Yu should be the one holding it up, not him.

"There is something I also want to tell you. I hope you can understand that in my heart, you will always be a unique existence."

Qin Yu then told Mo Yun, "There's one more thing I'd like you to know."

Qin Yu raised her head and looked at Mo Yun seriously. For Qin Yu, she hoped that Mo Yun could be well and that Mo Yun could always stay by her side.

If she could, Qin Yu would actually want to grow old with Mo Yun for the rest of her life.

However, given their current vastly different social statuses, if they were to marry here, the civil and military officials in the court would undoubtedly have some reservations about Qin Yu and Mo Yun. What Qin Yu hated most was being pointed at and gossiped about in this place; the more people pointed at them, the angrier Qin Yu became.

Qin Yu didn't think it mattered, but she didn't want Mo Yun to experience the same thing.

Qin Yu and Mo Yun walked and walked until they returned to the princess's residence.

Lin Ruohua then informed Qin Yu of something. "Today, my subordinate happened to pass by the Prime Minister's residence and indeed saw several men in black inside."

Hearing that there were several men in black, Qin Yu asked Lin Ruohua, "Do you know what they're talking about these days?"

They didn't seem to be talking about anything these days.

Because under the circumstances at the time, Lin Ruohua had no way to get in.

They were heavily guarded, and Lin Ruohua could only wait outside.

“But Your Highness, the only thing I know is that this black man went in and never came out. This means that he has some kind of relationship with the Prime Minister. If that’s the case, then we all have to be careful in the future to avoid being tricked by the Prime Minister behind our backs.”

After listening to what Lin Ruohua said, Qin Yu decided to strengthen the defenses of the princess's residence to avoid being tricked here.

Yuan Jie happened to arrive in front of Qin Yu and said that he had been feeling that there were some suspicious men in black around the princess's residence in the past few days.

"You said there have been strange men in black at the Princess's residence these past few days? This is actually quite puzzling to me. I don't quite understand why there would be men in black at the Princess's residence."

To be honest, Qin Yu was genuinely puzzled; she couldn't understand why there were men in black here.

This really puzzled Qin Yu. He then decided not to sleep that night and to stay here to see if there really were black people there. If there were, Qin Yu would definitely teach them a good lesson.

She will definitely show these men in black what she's capable of.

Qin Yu then decided to take a nap, as she was indeed tired today.

On the other hand, the Prime Minister learned that the Governor's daughter was in love with Shangguan Mufeng, and combined the identities of Shangguan Mufeng and the Governor with his own. However, he realized that he absolutely could not provoke either of them, because if he did, the consequences would be unimaginable.

More importantly, when did Shangguan Mufeng and Lan Yan get together? This is quite puzzling.

After all, according to the Prime Minister, shouldn't Shangguan Mufeng's beloved be the emperor's concubine? How could he have fallen for her now...?

In that instant, the Prime Minister actually wished he had a son. If he had a son, he could seize the Governor's daughter right now. Once he had the Governor's daughter, it would be considered to have stabilized Prime Minister Xu's position.

After all, although Prime Minister Xu was a person above all others in the court, there were still many people in the court who were dissatisfied with him.

Qin Yu wanted exactly this effect. His goal was simple: to turn the prime minister into a rat that everyone wanted to beat.

Even if the Prime Minister is Qin Yu's royal uncle, so what?

For Qin Yu, anyone who dares to defy him will suffer a terrible fate. This is Qin Yu's current mindset, and he will make sure that person pays the price.

Qin Yu then turned her gaze to the distance.

She's been thinking about what to do next.

After thinking about this and that, I still couldn't come up with anything, and at that moment I felt a bit of a headache.

Qin Yu then had Mo Yun rub her head for her.

Upon hearing Qin Yu's words, Mo Yun would undoubtedly be rubbing Qin Yu's head.

Mo Yun's touch was very gentle, as if he was afraid of hurting Qin Yu.
