Thinking of this, I made a decision in my heart."Crown Prince, this little girl has no talent and is not worth your effort. I hope you can be magnanimous and let this little girl leave.”As long as Murong Xi knows that I am in the Crown Prince's Residence, he will definitely have a way to save me!
The Crown Prince flew into a rage." You slut! I'll speak to you nicely. Since you refuse, don't blame me for being impolite!" Men!"
Immediately, two burly men knelt down from outside the door to pay their respects.
"Take this woman away and lock her up!" The Crown Prince shouted. Starve her for a meal!"
The two of them came over and carried me out. I laughed to myself. Murong Xi would never let me go hungry for those few meals. I would just wait to see an empty house the next day!
This house was not like a prison. It was well-equipped, but it had not been cleaned for a long time. It was covered in dust and was a little dirty. I picked a chair and sat down. There are guards outside the room. It seems that I can't go out.
So I shouted outside,"Warrior outside, how big is the Crown Prince's residence?"”
"It's not something a small family like you can see!" The man said disdainfully.”
I was energized. It was good that he was willing to talk to me. I quickly asked,"Big Brother, you're very knowledgeable. Can you tell me about it?”
" Hey…little girl, you really know how to talk." The man heard me praise him and became interested." This Crown Prince's Mansion was personally selected by the Emperor back then. The appearance of the houses was also decided by the Emperor. It's enough to show the Emperor's love for the Crown Prince. All of these facilities were imitations of the Crown Prince's chambers in the Imperial Palace, all for the Crown Prince to live comfortably!”
"Oh, then does the emperor like this crown prince very much? Will the Crown Prince definitely get the throne?" I asked as if I had seen nothing strange, making myself look like an idiot.
"Of course! We're the crown prince, not some prince! That dynasty could be lacking a prince, but there was only one crown prince!”The voice continued to sound arrogant.
I thought to myself, that dynasty doesn't lack Crown Princes. If I kill one, the other will immediately take over. "Yo, then big brother, do you know anything about Purple Melting Jade?”
I guessed that he didn't know about the Purple Melting Jade either. I only heard him mutter,"Little girl, don't ask blindly. If the Crown Prince hears me talking to you, I won't be able to bear the consequences.”
After saying that, no matter how much he tried to ask, there was no sound.
I cried out and leaned against the door. What kind of object was this Purple Melting Jade? What use did it have? Everyone wanted it, and now it was heating up in my arms. Thinking of this, I took out the Purple Melting Jade and looked at its transparent color. It slowly flowed with a strange luster. What was going on? He had never seen her before.
I remembered the dream that day. That man whose face I couldn't see clearly and whose name I couldn't hear clearly told me to come back, but did he call me? Or was he simply calling for the Purple Melting Jade? Could it be that there were immortals living in the jade token?
I raised my hand to shake it, but it didn't respond at all. However, that dream had only happened once, and it never happened again. How strange. I put away the Purple Melting Jade. He looked at the jade bracelet at the side. He sighed in his heart. However, there was nothing he could do. From now on, Shui Xuanyue can only be a dream of mine. It was a dream that was within reach. Even though everything was up to me, I couldn't make that choice.
As time passed, my heart was burning with anxiety. Could it be that Murong Xi doesn't know that I've been lured to the Crown Prince's residence? Impossible, Murong Xi was so smart, he could guess who it was.
But there was no movement.
I was so hungry that my chest was sticking to my back. I couldn't even get someone to send me some saliva.
He didn't care about being dirty anymore. He lay on the bed and recalled all kinds of dishes. He regretted it in his heart. Why was he so stupid as to refuse to eat in the Third Prince's residence! He was in trouble now!
I turned over a few times but still couldn't satisfy my hunger. In the end, my consciousness slowly left me and I slowly fell asleep.
" Holy Master…" A tall man stood beside me. He was dressed in luxurious clothes and looked down at me respectfully, but I couldn't see his face clearly no matter what.
I looked up at him.
"Saint Lord, we should return." He stretched out his hand as if it had magic, making it irresistible.
I handed my hand to him, but it was cold."Are you a human or a ghost?" I was afraid, but I didn't want to pull my hand back. It was as if holding him like this was very safe.
I heard his low laughter,"The Holy Master has been gone for too long. Have you forgotten me?"”
I followed him, passing through a sea of clouds…
"Ah!" Suddenly, he woke up to find a girl standing beside him. She bent over and said to me,"It's time to eat."”Then, he left. I sat up and saw the food on the table. I was hungry again.
Thinking of the dream just now, she felt strange. Why did she have that dream yesterday? Who was that man? Could the Holy Master he was talking about be me? Did we know each other before?
I casually ate the rice, but I didn't want to eat the vegetables. Even if I was so hungry, I still couldn't eat…
Suddenly, she saw a note in the rice. He quickly picked it up and held it in his palm. Seeing that the doors and windows were closed and no one was peeping, he unfolded the note.
Give the purple melting jade to the prince. West.
It was Murong Xi! He knows I'm here!
This scoundrel! You actually didn't save me! Does the Third Prince know about giving the Purple Melting Jade to the Crown Prince? Now that he wants me to give the Purple Melting Jade to the Crown Prince…I can only believe him!
I quickly took two mouthfuls of rice and called for someone to come in. The servant girl packed her things very nimbly and was about to leave. I grabbed the corner of her clothes."Go and call your Crown Prince. Tell him that I agree.”
The servant girl quickly knelt down and ran out.
After a while, a servant came over."The Crown Prince invites Miss Xia to speak in her study.”
I followed behind. The garden of the Crown Prince's residence was indeed very big, but unfortunately, it was carried by someone yesterday and I didn't see it clearly. However, this Crown Prince was not a vulgar person, so he must be ambitious. There was nothing else in the courtyard except for the blooming peonies. Actually, they were about to wither at this time of the year.
I walked into the study. The Crown Prince stood in front of the desk, picked up the words he had just written, and blew gently. I walked to the center. When he saw me coming, he waved for me to go over and take a look.
"This prince's calligraphy is better than that Third Prince's?”His face was full of arrogance.
I thought to myself,"I don't know calligraphy, and I didn't even get to see the Third Prince yesterday."”
The Crown Prince feigned dissatisfaction.”
I secretly raised my eyebrows. You know how to treat guests. You've been locked up until you're hungry!
He sat down and looked at me.”
I reached into my pocket and took out the Purple Melting Jade and placed it on his table. His eyes revealed greed and desire. Just as I let go, he reached out and grabbed the Purple Melting Jade in his hand. He placed it in front of his eyes and muttered,"Purple Melting Jade, I've got you! I sent people to the isolated island to look for you, but they returned empty-handed. Now, it's all so easy!”At this moment, he suddenly remembered that I was here. His expression was uncertain as he suddenly said to me,"I have obtained the Purple Melting Jade. This world is mine!" No one can snatch the throne from me anymore! You go back! Tell the Third Prince! I'm the one who can truly be the emperor!”
I was surprised by his obsession with power, but I also understood. He had fought for decades, and now the throne was within his grasp.
Outside the Crown Prince's residence, the sun was already shining brightly. The bustling streets were bustling with activity. I inquired about the Third Prince's whereabouts and immediately ran over.
The servant at the door seemed to recognize me and didn't stop me. I ran straight to the Third Prince's bedroom. He knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered. In the end, it was the servant girl who told me that the Third Prince had gone out and might only return at night.
I thought that since it was almost noon, Murong Xi must be in the residence. I quickly asked the servant maids beside me, but they told me that they did not know that Murong Xi was also living in the residence. He was instantly deflated. Just now, I had a belly full of words to say to others, but in the end, there were too many people who were useful!
I strolled around for a long time and returned to the courtyard where I was temporarily staying. Lying on the bed, he felt that someone had come in. A hint of the fragrance of Joyous Union had already exposed his identity. He did not even bother to lift his eyelids."Where the hell did you go? I was almost scared to death by that Crown Prince!”
He sat beside me and teased,"It's good that the Crown Prince wasn't scared to death by you!"”
I sat up and grabbed his neck."Speak! Where did you go! He actually let me starve for an entire night! He even asked me to give him the Purple Fusion Jade!"
Murong Xi gently patted my hand, indicating for me to be quiet."This is a scheme."
I've been in the Third Prince's mansion for a long time now. I don't have to worry about food and clothing, and there are people waiting on me. I didn't even notice the change in the weather in the house. There were only fallen leaves outside the window.
Murong Xi came to visit me every day, talking to me and chatting with me. But he didn't mention anything about marriage. I also intend to stall for as long as possible.
In the blink of an eye, it was almost the new year. Every house was decorated with lanterns and streamers, and the joy of the new year was overflowing on their faces. However, the Third Prince's residence was still as quiet as ever.
When I woke up in the morning, I was suddenly woken up by the noise outside. After putting on my clothes, I asked the servant girl who served me and found out that there were many soldiers outside the city gate.
After I got someone to clean me up, I walked out of the room. I didn't expect the Crown Prince to rebel. After the Third Prince learned that the Crown Prince had obtained the Purple Melting Jade, he still didn't move. Today was New Year's Eve. Everyone was keeping watch, and even the palace was no exception. The Crown Prince had caused such a huge commotion. Was he too careless, or was he determined to win?
Murong Xi wasn't waiting for me outside. I walked around and felt cold, so I went to the Third Prince's study. At this moment, no one was guarding it. He was very curious. What kind of person was the Third Prince? He was actually so calm.
