Chapter 196: The 2nd Princess's Entanglement
Golden State.
Wu Ma Roufeng stared at the person in front of him quietly, frowning subconsciously. The person standing in front of him was actually the second princess.
The Second Princess had a hypocritical smile on her face, her eyes fixed firmly on Roufeng. Beneath that seemingly kind appearance, it seemed that she was hiding endless cunning and calculation.
Roufeng knew very well in her heart that the Second Princess was by no means a good person. There must be an ulterior motive hidden behind her hypocritical expression. Her evil thoughts seemed to be looming in the depths of her eyes.
Roufeng was secretly alert, all the nerves in her body were tense, and she was prepared to deal with any possibility.
He hated the look in the Second Princess' eyes and wanted to eat her up right there and then.
The Second Princess raised the corners of her mouth slightly, with a strange light flashing in her eyes. She took light lotus steps and slowly approached Roufeng. The gorgeous clothes on her body swayed gently with her movements, making a slight rustling sound.
Her eyes seemed gentle, but in fact they were like sharp blades, as if she wanted to see through Roufeng and find a flaw that could be exploited.
Roufeng straightened his back and looked into the eyes of the Second Princess without flinching, trying to catch more clues from her expression and behavior.
Roufeng could see every subtle movement and every change in expression of the Second Princess. She silently analyzed her intentions in her heart.
"Brother Roufeng, how are you?" The second princess' voice was gentle and pleasant, yet with a barely perceptible hint of hypocrisy.
Roufeng just nodded slightly and didn't say much. He knew very well that talking too much would lead to mistakes.
Seeing this, the Second Princess was not discouraged and continued to speak to herself: "After seeing you today, my brother has become even more beautiful and charming. I am really envious of you."
As she spoke, she gently covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief. Her artificial gesture made people feel disgusted.
Roufeng remained silent. He would not be easily fooled by the sweet words of the Second Princess.
When the Second Princess saw Roufeng being so cold, a hint of displeasure flashed across her eyes, but she quickly concealed it.
She continued to pace around Roufeng, constantly saying some irrelevant words, trying to disturb Roufeng's thoughts.
However, Roufeng's heart was as firm as a rock and remained unmoved.
He quietly observed the Second Princess' every move and analyzed the deeper meaning of her words. In this seemingly calm atmosphere, undercurrents were actually surging. Both sides were secretly competing and testing each other's bottom line.
As time went by, the second princess spoke more and more. She began to talk about some trivial matters in the palace, trying to get closer to Roufeng.
But Roufeng knew in his heart that these were just tricks of the Second Princess, and he would never be fooled easily.
"Brother, do you know that many interesting things have happened in the palace recently?" The second princess said mysteriously.
Roufeng simply responded: "Oh? I'd like to hear more about it." His voice was as calm as water, without the slightest ripple.
A hint of cunning flashed across the second princess' eyes, and she began to describe those so-called "interesting things" in vivid detail.
As Roufeng listened, she analyzed the deeper meaning behind these things in her mind, and she felt more and more that the Second Princess's purpose was not simple.
In this way, the second princess talked incessantly, and Roufeng listened quietly. The whole scene seemed harmonious, but in fact it was full of mysteries.
Roufeng was also always prepared to deal with various means that the Second Princess might use. He knew that in the Jin Dynasty's palace, he would get into trouble if he was not careful.
In the following time, the Second Princess' words and actions became more and more unscrupulous, and her evil intentions became more and more obvious. Roufeng had to be extremely alert for fear of going berserk.
When the second princess finally finished speaking, Wu Ma Roufeng could not help but yawn, with a barely perceptible hint of annoyance on her face.
At this moment, some people's discussions were heard from the street, and the topic was about the situation at the border.
Roufeng's thoughts were attracted by the sound and she unconsciously turned her attention to the street.
The streets were crowded with people, and all kinds of voices mixed together to create a noisy atmosphere. Some people looked anxious, while others looked serious. They talked about what was happening at the border, revealing their concerns about the situation.
"I heard that there was another conflict on the border. It's really disturbing." An old man said worriedly.
"Yeah, what should we do? I don't know if it will affect us." A man next to him echoed, with a worried look on his face.
Roufeng listened carefully to their words and had a preliminary understanding of the situation on the border. It seemed that the situation on the border was quite tense recently, with frictions between the two sides from time to time, and the shadow of war loomed in people's hearts.
He slowly walked to the side of the street, approaching those who were talking, trying to get more information.
People didn't pay attention to her arrival and continued to discuss border issues enthusiastically.
"I heard that the enemy is coming with great force this time, and our soldiers are under a lot of pressure." A middle-aged man said with a frown.
"Yes, and this time the enemy seems to have a new tactic, which makes our defense line a little stretched." Another person continued.
A feeling of worry welled up in Roufeng's heart, as she knew very well the importance of border stability to the country.
Once the border becomes chaotic, the consequences will be disastrous and the relations between the four major countries will be in dire straits.
He continued to listen to the crowd, and people's words flooded into his ears like a tide.
Some people were discussing the geographical environment of the border, some were analyzing the enemy's troop deployment, and others were worrying about the future of the country.
"If there was a wise general leading our army, perhaps there would be a turning point." Someone sighed.
"But now the army seems to be lacking capable people." Another person shook his head helplessly.
As time went by, the discussions on the street continued.
Roufeng stood there, her thoughts drifting to the distant border.
He knew that on the border, the soldiers faced tremendous pressure and danger.
Not only do they have to face enemy attacks, but they also have to overcome harsh natural environment and difficult living conditions.
"I wonder if Sister Yu is doing well in Water Country." Roufeng said softly.
The second princess frowned. Sister Yu? Who? If anyone dares to snatch Roufeng from her, she will tear that person into pieces.
People began to discuss how to provide assistance to the soldiers on the border.
Roufeng was thinking of Song Yu. He hadn't seen Sister Yu for two years. If things got chaotic, he would definitely rush to her side first.
The second princess saw her happy look and thought viciously that she must not let this Jade sister live.
