She didn't bother to look at the furious face of the man and directly tried to pass by him.
"Hey, stop!" A gust of wind rushed by, and Mu Fengyan stepped forward to block her path again, "I say, you little girl, you're not very old but you sure have a lot to say, and you're quite bold too. So tell me, whose little girl are you? Speak up, and I... I will spare your life!"
Yin Luo saw him deliberately putting on a serious facade; from his appearance to his temperament, he looked nothing like an emperor. She was too lazy to argue with him and coldly sneered, "Spare my life? It seems the emperor treats human lives as a joke? They say the emperor is equal to commoners when it comes to breaking the law. In broad daylight, the emperor forcibly blocks a common girl’s path and threatens her. If she doesn’t comply, he threatens to kill her. If this gets out, I wonder how the world will view such behavior from the emperor?"
"How dare you! You dare speak insolently to the emperor; you’re asking for death!" another Guard shouted, drawing his sword and placing it against Yin Luo's neck. If this were an ordinary girl from a common family, she would have likely been frightened into submission by now. However, Yin Luo remained unfazed and looked at the emperor with an expression that said he was nothing special.
Mu Fengyan was clearly enraged by her gaze and pointed at the Guard beside him, "Put that down! What are you doing? I haven't even spoken yet!"
"Your Majesty, she spoke insolently; she..."
"I command you to put it down!" Mu Fengyan's expression turned stern, and the Guard immediately dared not act recklessly anymore. He lowered his sword and shot Yin Luo a look that seemed to say "consider yourself lucky."
Yin Luo appeared unconcerned; seeing that his sword was lowered, she simply walked forward.
"Hey, girl, wait up!"
Who would have thought that the emperor would follow her like this? No matter where she went, he followed closely behind, making her furious.
"Are you done yet?"
She suddenly stopped in her tracks, and Mu Fengyan nearly bumped into her. Yin Luo quickly took a step back, glaring at him warily. Mu Fengyan responded with a sheepish smile and said, "Miss, you haven't told me your name yet. Come on, what is it? Given your boldness, I'll consider you a friend."
"I don't need friends, and I don't know you."
"How dare you! The Emperor wants to befriend you; that’s a sign of respect!" The eunuch spoke again, truly annoying.
Yin Luo raised her head to look around. This royal temple was so vast, and now that she was stuck with this persistent pest, escaping would be quite difficult.
But she had to seize this opportunity to slip away; if she didn't escape now, finding another chance later would likely be even harder.
She glanced at the two men behind the Emperor, still fuming, then looked back at Mu Fengyan. Suddenly, an idea struck her: "Do you really want to be my friend?"
"Of course! It would be my honor to be friends with such a beauty."
"Alright, then I'll be your friend, but you must not let them follow us."
"What? Your Majesty, don't listen to this girl’s nonsense! I’ve never heard of any girl in the capital who looks like her; she must be a disguised assassin! Your Majesty, please don’t agree!"
"Yes, Your Majesty! If you want friends, there are plenty in the palace. If something goes wrong, I won't know how to explain it to the Empress Dowager!"
"What are you all arguing about? You're going to make me deaf!" He covered his ears and looked at his two attendants with disdain before turning back to Yin Luo, his peach blossom eyes suddenly sparkling. "This is what you said!"
Yin Luo nodded lightly, appearing calm and unbothered.
Mu Fengyan immediately turned to his attendants and said, "Listen, I have important matters to attend to. You two must not follow me; this is an Imperial Decree. Otherwise..." He drew the long sword of the Guard and pointed it at them, saying in a deep voice, "Execute on the spot!"
The two were startled and exchanged glances, clearly seeing the difficulty in each other's eyes. Mu Fengyan then tossed the sword aside and directly grabbed Yin Luo's arm, exclaiming with delight, "Let's go!"
