Seeing the situation turn like this all of a sudden, Feng Yuqin rubbed her temples helplessly. "Mo Xuanye, did you come here to wreck the place?"
"Absolutely not! I'm here to back you up." Mo Xuanye replied seriously.
The look in his eyes as he gazed at Feng Yuqin was filled with a hint of affection.
Feng Yuqin subconsciously averted her eyes, avoiding him. "I don't need you to back me up. If there really is a conflict with the princess of the royal family because of the medicinal herbs, I can handle it."
"How do you plan to handle it?" Dongfang Zhi asked curiously.
Although Mo Xuanye didn't ask, he could guess something.
Feng Yuqin didn't answer Dongfang Zhi but looked at Meng Xingyu and asked, "I have a few items I'd like to auction here. It's still early. Shouldn't it be too late, right?" She had come early with this intention.
So whether there was a princess of the royal family or not, she would take out a few items from her space to build a relationship with the auction house.
"You have something to auction?" Meng Xingyu said in surprise. "The auction house won't accept ordinary items. Otherwise, it's like ruining its own reputation."
Mo Xuanye gave Meng Xingyu a cold look. "Do you think the items Qin'er takes out will be ordinary?"
Qin'er...
It was the first time Feng Yuqin had been called like this. The feeling... was indescribable.
After all, everyone around her called her Aqin, even in her previous life.
"Don't worry. Since I'm asking you to help with the connection, I definitely won't make things difficult for you." Feng Yuqin said.
"Actually, I can also help with the connection." Mo Xuanye said.
"Me too." Dongfang Zhi raised his hand and joined in the fun.
Feng Yuqin simply ignored the two of them. She took out two fifth - level pills from her space and then three sixth - level magic cores.
Dongfang Zhi took a casual glance and gasped. "If you take out these items, it'll cause a sensation in the entire auction house, won't it?"
Meng Xingyu also looked at the items on the table in surprise.
Although the fifth - level pills were the worst in Feng Yuqin's space, they were the best in the Western Song State.
As for the magic cores, which could help with cultivation, they were even rarer treasures, and these were sixth - level ones! Did she know how difficult it was for a warrior to obtain a sixth - level magic core? But she took out three at once.
"Qin'er, I think you're the one who's here to wreck the place tonight, the auction house's place." Mo Xuanye said lovingly.
"I think so too." Meng Xingyu said with a long face. "You're playing too big. What if I can't handle it later?"
After all, there were many greedy people.
Feng Yuqin pointed at Mo Xuanye. "With him here, what are you afraid of?"
Seeing her confident look, Mo Xuanye suddenly laughed. "That's right. With this king here, I'll hold up the sky even if it collapses."
Feng Yuqin nodded. "Look, he's here. He has to spend some money. It'd be a waste not to come to this auction house."
Meng Xingyu finally understood. These two were here to show their affection secretly, weren't they?
Dongfang Zhi also stroked his chin and looked back and forth between the two meaningfully.
Mo Xuanye gave him a cold look. "Dongfang, if you don't want your eyes..."
Dongfang Zhi was dumbfounded. "Ye, are you sure you're going to be this crazy?"
"Sure." Mo Xuanye answered seriously.
Feng Yuqin: "..."
Feng Yi: "..."
Meng Xingyu: "..."
Forget it. He'd better leave this place of trouble quickly.
Meng Xingyu took the pills and magic cores and left.
However, he didn't leave for long before he came back.
"Aqin, the items you took out are too shocking. So the auction house has postponed the time by half an hour. The news about your magic cores and pills has spread. Many people have gone to prepare silver." Meng Xingyu said to Feng Yuqin.
"Go and ask someone to bring more snacks. We can't let the princess be hungry." Mo Xuanye said to Feng Yi beside him.
Feng Yi turned around and left without saying a word.
"Remember to add some wine." Dongfang Zhi said with a smile.
"It seems I don't need to spend my own silver to bid for these two medicinal herbs tonight." Feng Yuqin said with a smile.
"Is Qin'er really short of silver?" Mo Xuanye asked. "I have a lot of silver here. I'll ask Feng Yi to send it all to you tomorrow."
"No need." Feng Yuqin immediately said. "Yours are yours, and mine are mine."
To be precise, the money she was spending now was all from Xiaojin.
Thinking like this, Feng Yuqin just realized that her two beast pets seemed a bit quieter tonight.
They were usually chattering, but why were they so quiet tonight?
Xiaoying sensed the master's thought and secretly thought: That's because the big devil Mo Xuanye is here, so they've decided not to make a sound if they can.
Feng Yuqin, who heard Xiaoying's thought: "..."
Her beast pets were actually afraid of Mo Xuanye?
What was this all about?
"Hey, isn't that Feng Qing, the second miss of the prime minister's mansion?" Meng Xingyu was sitting by the window. When he saw Feng Qing walking in downstairs, he said in confusion.
Feng Yuqin turned her head and looked down. She saw Feng Qing was accompanied by Xia Yujia and Meng Yuanhang. The three of them sat down in a private room.
"They're all from the Meng family. Why is there such a big difference?" Feng Yuqin looked at Meng Xingyu and said.
Meng Xingyu spread his hands. "They're the most distant side branch. Moreover, because Meng Yuanhang's grandfather made a mistake back then, there's no longer any relationship with our branch."
"I remember that Meng Yuanhang's grandfather seemed to have married into a wealthy family and only then became prosperous." Feng Yuqin learned this from a young master who had a feud with Meng Yuanhang when she went out with Feng Qing once.
"That's right. But that old Meng guy was so heartless. It didn't take long before he made that wealthy young lady's family ruined and then married another." Meng Xingyu despised what Meng Yuanhang's grandfather had done, and his look of disdain was undisguised on his face.
"It seems they're all of the same kind. No wonder they can get together." Feng Yuqin thought that Feng Qing also had a wrong outlook on life, and Xia Yujia was even worse. As for Meng Yuanhang, she knew from the words she heard him say in the Cloud Peak Forest that he was a villain.
"I agree with you on this." Meng Xingyu nodded. His gaze fell on Feng Qing and the others again, and he said in confusion, "But is Feng Qing's hand injured? Why do I think the hand she's holding seems to have been treated?"
Feng Yuqin gave a cold look at Feng Qing's right hand and said indifferently, "She pointed at my mother with her finger last night. I thought it was an eyesore, so I just broke her finger."
Dongfang Zhi happened to be drinking tea. Hearing this, he spat out a mouthful of tea, which just landed on Meng Xingyu.
Meng Xingyu: "..." What had he done wrong to suffer this?
A charming smile appeared on Mo Xuanye's lips. His eyes looking at Feng Yuqin were both loving and gentle.
"Sorry..." Dongfang Zhi also thought his behavior just now was really indecent. "I was really shocked by Miss Feng's words."
Meng Xingyu also wiped the water off his body and nodded seriously. "It's a bit scary. Too cruel."
Feng Yuqin: "..."
