Chapter 660: Mystery within a mystery

The emperor sighed and said: “It’s a long story. But to make it short, Pei Qinghan now has found a girl and said that it was the child back then. I find it strange. So even if he came to see me twice, I didn’t see him. I planned to make a decision after discussing it with your master, but now that you’re back, you talk about this matter to your master. Listen to his opinion, then you make a decision.”

Hu Feng never knew that he still had a fiancee. A little girl that died and now came back to life.

Seeing Hu Feng frowned and said nothing, the emperor busily asked: “What’s wrong? Are you dissatisfied with this marriage?”

Hu Feng replied: “Imperial Father, there is already someone in this son’s heart. I can’t marry someone else as my wife. Please take this matter back.”

The emperor laughed and said: “Is there someone in your heart? Tell your imperial father, which girl is it?”

Hu Feng slightly smiled and said: “This son met her in Huangtuo Village. But now, she and my adoptive father are missing. This son is planning to find her.”

A girl from the mountain village? The emperor frowned, but he didn’t say anything. Chu Yan finally had a girl in his heart. He couldn’t have the heart to pour cold water on him. Besides, Chu Yan will be the emperor in the future. He would never have only one woman. So, there was no reason to object to this matter.

The emperor nodded his head: “Okay, as long as you like it. You should also mention this to your master. Let him prepare his heart. I believe your master will understand your thoughts.”

“This son understands, this son will retire!” He bowed his head and slowly left the Imperial Study Room.

After Hu Feng left the palace, he went directly to Dongfang Family Mansion. When the little guard heard that it was Prince Jin, he hurriedly reported inside, and soon came out to let him in.

Dongfang Mu originally planned to enter the palace, but since Chu Yan came, he saved him a lot of trouble.

The little servant led Hu Feng and his subordinates into the hall. Dongfang Mu was walking back and forth into the hall in excitement. Seeing Chu Yan coming in, he hurriedly came forward.

Hu Feng knelt on one knee: “Master, this disciple is back!”

“Okay, okay! It’s good you come back, it’s good you come back!” Dongfang Mu helped him to get up. The handsome and upright man in front of him and the young man in his memories were different.

“Yan’er, you have grown up and become a man!”

10 years of mentoring and apprentices.h.i.+p, 10 years of separation, but they finally met again, two lines of tears slide down on his cheeks.

Hu Feng’s eyes also reddened and tried hard not to let his tears fall. In this world, aside from Hu Changlin, Bai Zhi, and his imperial father who was waiting for his return. The closest person, who regard him as a family, was only this old man in front of him.

“Master, you’re so old, but this disciple made you worry.”

Dongfang Mu waved his hand: “It’s all over. You finally come back again, this master is naturally happy more than anything else. I feel like I can live another hundred years.”

Dongfang Mu sat down beside Hu Feng because he was reluctant to let him go: “How is your journey?”

Hu Feng nodded his head: “It’s smooth, but made we a detour in Paoma Valley.”

Dongfang Mu was a very smart person. Chu Yan was his proud disciple. He not only taught him martial arts, but also the art of war. So as soon as Chu Yan said this, he immediately understood his meaning.

“As long as you are born in the imperial family and safe, it’s hard to avoid such a thing. You should be more careful in the future.”

“This disciple understands!” He smiled and nodded, and then asked: “Master, imperial father asked this disciple to discuss with you about the daughter of the Pei family. I wonder what the master thinks about this matter?”

Dongfang Mu slapped his thigh: “Oh, I was about to talk this matter to you. I just forgot about it at the moment. I’m telling you, ah, this matter is a mystery within a mystery.”
