"This matter can be explained. Perhaps this Li Hun and Li Baoxian are the same kind of people and specially entered the palace to seize the Purple Moon World. From the looks of it, this matter was not simple. After all, Consort Xian and Li Hun had been in the Imperial Palace for so many years. It might not be so easy to suddenly make others believe that Consort Xian was a monster. Moreover, Consort Xian was favored by the Emperor, Li Hun had power, and Li Ruonan did not like him. Sigh. This is troublesome!" After chasing Zhao Zecheng away, Zhang Zixun was alone in her room, thinking. It would have been fine if she did not think about it, but the more she thought about it, the more confused she became. Zhang Zixun couldn't help but curse, Damn it! I said I didn't want to set foot in the palace. Look, now I'm involved and can't escape!”
"Miss, are you there? Breakfast is ready, I'm coming in!”Just as Zhang Zixun was at a loss for what to do, Qing 'er's voice sounded from outside the door. Hearing this, Zhang Zixun thought to herself,'I don't care. I'll cross the bridge naturally. Let's fill my stomach first.'”
"Come in, I'm hungry too." Qing `er pushed the door open and entered. Right now, she had once again transformed into the innocent and adorable little girl Qing` er who was beside the Third Princess. She smiled like a flower as she walked in with a tray. She smiled and said,"Miss, come. You must be hungry too, right? This is the breakfast that Qing 'er prepared for you. Hurry up and eat.”As he spoke, he placed the plate on the table. As expected, they were all snacks for breakfast. There were crystal steamed dumplings, three fresh dumplings, four happiness meatballs, steamed buns, and a bowl of millet porridge. Zhang Zixun's eyes lit up when she saw this.""Wow! Qing 'Er, did you do all this? I didn't expect your cooking to be so good!" Zhang Zixun had already started eating. "Miss, you only know now?" Qing Er smiled and sat down. In the past, I didn't have to cook in the Heavenly Court, and it wasn't my turn to cook in the Prime Minister's Estate. Now, I can finally show off my skills! How was it? Delicious, right?"
"Yes, I am. It was delicious. Delicious!" Zhang Zixun mumbled as she ate.
"Miss, slow down. Be careful not to choke.”
"Qing `er, you eat too! Oh right, call Xiaoju in to eat together!”Zhang Zixun suddenly stopped and said. The Green Girl looked at the few things left on the table and smiled."No need, I've already eaten. If it's Xiao Ju, I'll just make it for her.”Hearing this, Zhang Zixun didn't stand on ceremony anymore and immediately started eating again."Then I won't stand on ceremony!" Just like that, she finished the entire table of breakfast by herself. No one would believe that she was a lady. After about half an hour, Miss Zhang finally had her fill. She sat on the chair and said,"Wow, this meal is really full!”
"Miss, you should pay attention to your image. You're a princess!”Qing 'Er frowned when she saw that she was still burping after eating her fill. She reminded her in a low voice.
"Who told you to make such delicious food? It's your fault!" Zhang Zixun held the teacup and pretended to be obedient. The Green Girl shook her head helplessly. I'll go out and pack up first." After saying that, Qing 'Er cleaned up the dishes and walked out. However, the moment she stepped out of the room, the corners of her mouth revealed a strange smile.
"Dong dong dong" As soon as the Green Girl left, someone knocked on the door.
"Who is it? Come in." Zhang Zixun replied casually. She was still lying on the recliner that she had asked someone to specially make for her. He had specially drawn this according to modern knowledge and shapes, so there was only one in the entire Ziyue Kingdom. As soon as she finished speaking, she was still lying on the chair with her eyes closed. Now that she had thought it through, she would let nature take its course. As long as Consort Xian and Li Hun did not make any real moves, she did not need to take the initiative to find trouble with them. Wasn't that just asking for trouble? However, if Consort Xian really did harm the Emperor, she would not sit idly by. At that time, it would not matter whether others believed it or not, because the truth was right in front of them. Zhang Zixun was leisurely humming a tune, but when she saw the person who came in, her body jumped up from the recliner like a spring."Why is it you? Why are you here?" Other than the first person she met when she entered the palace and the first person she became friends with here, who else could make Zhang Zixun have such a big reaction? That handsome and elegant face, that free and easy temperament, the person who came was the fourth prince of the Purple Moon Empire, Zhao Zeyi. He slowly walked in, his footsteps light and slow, with an extremely unrestrained temperament.
"What's wrong? Did she forget her friends after becoming a princess?”the Fourth Prince said calmly. In fact, if one were to listen carefully, one could hear that when he said the word 'friend', there was a hint of loneliness in his tone.
"You know I'm not that kind of person." Zhang Zixun rolled her eyes at him." I mean, I thought you had already left the palace after that day."”Zhang Zixun invited Zhao Zeyi to sit down and poured him a cup of tea. She said slowly,"Didn't you say you didn't like the restricted life in the palace? Why are you still here this time?" Hearing this, Zhao Zeyi looked at her in a daze. There were too many complicated emotions in his eyes, making it difficult to fathom.
"Hey, I'm talking to you!" Zhang Zixun shouted when she saw him staring at her in a daze. Zhao Zeyi came back to his senses and looked away from her face. He said perfunctorily,"I still have some things to deal with, so I haven't left yet.”However, he thought to himself, If I say that there is already someone worthy of me here, and that it is because of you that I don't want to leave, will you believe me?”Zhang Zixun saw that he was lost in thought and guessed that he had something on his mind, so she said,"You're acting strange today. Did something happen?”
"Oh, no." Zhang Zixun looked at him in confusion. Perhaps he was afraid that she would notice something, so Zhao Zeyi suggested,""How about we take a walk in the Imperial Garden? The weather today was very good. It was a good choice to go out and get some fresh air. Don't stay in the house all day. You might get sick from holding it in.”Zhang Zixun hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she agreed,"That's good. Anyway, I just ate and need to exercise.”Hence, after saying goodbye to Qing 'Er and Xiao Ju, the two of them walked towards the imperial garden. Because the imperial garden was quite a distance away from here, and this section of the road was paved with bluestone slabs. Along the way, the two of them remained silent. Zhang Zixun felt that Zhao Zeyi was a little different from before. He felt strange, as if he had something on his mind. Hence, she pretended to be forthright and patted Zhao Zeyi's shoulder. The latter was slightly stunned.
"Hey, what's wrong with you today? You're not like you were before. The first time I saw you, you were so free and easy. You said whatever you wanted to say. Why are you so shy now?”Hearing this, Zhao Zeyi suddenly stopped and turned to look at Zhang Zixun. After a moment, he finally mustered up his courage and said,""I'm sorry that I didn't stand up when Second Imperial Brother made things difficult for you. But I can tell that Second Imperial Brother…He likes you. That's why I don't want to get involved." Zhang Zixun felt as if she had been struck by lightning. He stood rooted to the ground, not knowing what to say. However, she still wanted to deceive herself this time, so she smiled and said,"Hehe. I'm not sure. Are you kidding me? He is a prince, how could he like me? That's impossible!" In the end, even he himself did not have much confidence. Thinking back to Zhao Zecheng's actions towards her these days, although he was joking around like a hooligan, but thinking about it carefully, could it be true? No! Zhang Zixun shook her head vigorously. She did not want to have anything to do with the royal family, and she did not want to have any feelings here. "That's impossible. You're wrong, aren't you?"”
"Hehe. I'm not sure. That's impossible." Zhao Zeyi smiled bitterly and turned to the side."If not, why would he hit his cousin who grew up with him for you? If it wasn't for him, why would he try so hard to stop Imperial Father when he discovered his intentions towards you? He didn't even hesitate to let you become his sister? Think about it." This time, Zhang Zixun was really stunned. She had never expected things to turn out like this. She had never thought that she would fall in love here. Moreover, Grand Supreme Elder had said that her marriage was destined in her previous life. This time, she was here to look for it. However, she did not believe that it was someone from the royal family. So she continued to deny it.”Zhao Zeyi suddenly turned around and grabbed her shoulders. He was so anxious that he almost roared,"Alright, it's impossible for Second Brother. What if I say I like you? What will happen to you? The first time I saw you, I felt that you were very special. I really like to get along with you. This feeling was so wonderful that even I was shocked. Later on, I saw that Second Imperial Brother almost contradicted Imperial Father for you. I knew that Second Imperial Brother had feelings for you. I thought about leaving, but when I saw Second Imperial Brother with you, my heart would ache. It would ache very, very much. At that time, I knew that I had fallen. I had no other choice! I love you! Zhang Zixun!" This time, it was Zhang Zixun's turn to be at a loss. This was a confession! She was completely unprepared for such an explicit confession. At this moment, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind."Is he the person I'm looking for?”However, he quickly denied it,"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" My other half must not be a member of the royal family.”The palace was like a huge golden cage. She didn't want to be locked in there for the rest of her life. After calming herself down, Zhang Zixun broke free of his hand and took a few steps back. She said in a panic,"Are you kidding me? Didn't I say we were friends? And I'm telling you, my other half definitely can't be from the royal family! I'll take today's matter as a joke. I'll go back.”Without waiting for Zhao Zeyi's reaction, he turned around and ran in the direction of the Billow House. Along the way, she was too anxious to look at the road and knocked down a few palace maids. However, Zhang Zixun could not care less now. She only knew to run forward and escape from this place. The palace maid was about to flare up, but seeing that the Emperor had personally conferred the title of Princess Shuiyue, she could only endure it. Zhao Zeyi looked at her running away and felt extremely pained. He did not understand why. Other people would never think of marrying into the royal family, but she actually said that she would never marry into the royal family. Why was that? Zhao Zeyi couldn't vent his anger for a moment. He suddenly looked up and roared,"Ah, I'm not sure. Why was this so? Do you only treat me as a friend? Do you know that I don't just want to be friends with you? I like you, do you know that?”Zhao Zeyi seemed to be completely exhausted after he shouted. He walked forward listlessly. Just then, the Emperor walked over with the Empress and Consort Xian. Seeing him in front, the Emperor called out,""Yi 'er, Yi' er." After calling out a few times and seeing that he did not respond, the Emperor was a little angry. He was about to flare up, but was stopped by the Empress. She walked forward and asked calmly,"My son, what's wrong?" What happened?"
"Oh, it's mother. I'm fine. I'm just a little tired and want to rest for a while.”Zhao Zeyi walked past the Empress and saw the Emperor in front of him. He bowed mechanically,""Your son greets Imperial Father and Consort Xian. Your son still has some matters to attend to, so I won't disturb Imperial Father.”As he spoke, he was about to leave. At this moment, Consort Xian stepped forward and asked,"Why does the Fourth Prince look so pale?" Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to hire a royal doctor?"
"Thank you for your concern, Concubine Xian. I am just a little tired and will be fine after resting for a while.”
"Since you're tired, go and rest.”Seeing his pale face, the Emperor did not say anything more. He only comforted him a few times and let him go. She just felt that something was wrong with him.
In the Yi Lan House, Zhang Zixun ran back quickly, giving Qing Er and Xiao Ju a fright.""Miss, why are you back so soon? Didn't she go for a walk in the garden with the Fourth Prince?”Xiao Ju asked curiously.
"Don't mention him to me. I'm tired. All of you, get out. I'm going to sleep!”Zhang Zixun was already very depressed. She was inexplicably confessed to by someone she had never thought of. Now that Xiao Ju mentioned it again, she was even angrier, so she shouted impatiently. This time, the two girls were confused. What was going on with this young miss? She was still fine just now and was so excited to go for a walk. How did it become like this in just a short while? Seeing that Zhang Zixun was really lying on the bed and covering her head with the blanket, Qing 'Er went over worriedly and said,"Miss, it's only been morning. It's only been a while. Why are you sleeping again? She even covered her head with the blanket to prevent herself from getting sick.”
"Get out, I don't need you to care about me!”Zhang Zixun said as she hid under the blanket. A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Qing 'Er's face, but it was only for a moment before she returned to normal.
"Alright then, Miss. We'll go out now. If you want to sleep, then sleep for a while. Qing 'er will call you again during lunch.”As he spoke, he brought the worried Xiao Ju out of the house.
"None of you should disturb me today. I want to be alone.”Zhang Zixun said. Qing Er and Xiao Ju looked at her helplessly and closed the door. After sending Xiao Ju away, Qing 'Er's expression suddenly turned cold. She muttered outside the door,""Even now, you're still throwing a tantrum, right? Alright, let's wait and see!" As he spoke, he took out the special messenger tube and walked towards the backyard of the Billow House. In the backyard, Qing 'er was writing something with a pen. After she finished writing, she put the note into a small bamboo tube. Then, she pulled the ring at the end of the tube, and the bamboo tube flew out. After doing all this, Qing 'Er left as if nothing had happened. Everything in the room quieted down. Zhang Zixun tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. "How is that possible?" she muttered to herself. Two people like me at the same time? I'm not that good, am I? Am I in trouble? Aiya! Ah!" After shouting, he sat up. He saw the purple butterfly dream on his wrist and said to it,""If you really have a mind of your own, can you tell me who my 'him' is? So that I can find it earlier and not have to be so annoyed!”As soon as he finished speaking, a magical scene appeared. The purple butterfly dream suddenly emitted an intense purple light that shot into the air. At first, Zhang Zixun was unable to open her eyes due to the pain, but she gradually got used to it. When she opened her eyes, it turned out to be a picture. To her, it looked like a portrait of a person, but it was only a blurry shadow with only one outline. He couldn't see it clearly no matter how hard he tried. "Hey, can't you be clearer?" Zhang Zixun said helplessly.”It would have been better if he hadn't said it, but now that he said it, everything disappeared.
"Hey, why isn't there any more? Stingy!" Zhang Zixun lay on the bed again, thinking about the painting. He only saw a blurry figure with silver hair and a sword in his hand. Then, he could not see anything else. Gradually, she fell asleep unconsciously.
Night fell quietly. There was no moonlight or stars tonight. It was terrifyingly dark and also terrifyingly quiet. In the capital of Purple Moon, in the Prime Minister's residence outside the Imperial City.
" Dong, dong, dong." A man in black flashed into the Prime Minister's residence. As soon as the servant opened the door, the man immediately walked in. The lights in the hall flickered, and Li Hun sat quietly on the seat directly above. The Prime Minister's residence was the Prime Minister's residence, and it exuded an air of grandeur. This was not something that Zhang Heng's Prime Minister Estate could compare to. After a while, the black-robed man walked in and took off his robe. It was Consort Xian, Li Baoxian. "Why aren't you calling me father when you come back?" Li Hun asked in a deep voice.”However, Li Baoxian was surprisingly rude.""Don't play this game with me. There are no outsiders now!”Li Hun smiled and wiped his hand in front of him, instantly turning into a young man in his twenties. He said respectfully,"Goddess Mei Ji, please forgive me. I was just joking. What instructions does the Empress have?" Concubine Xian walked forward and sat down." Back then, we disguised ourselves as Li Hun and sneaked into the imperial court through the imperial examinations. It was so that I could get close to the Emperor and absorb the Dragon Qi from his body. This would greatly increase my power and allow me to ascend without having to cultivate. Now, he was only one step away from success. As long as I can suck dry the dragon energy in his body, I can ascend to become an immortal. However, there seems to be someone who doesn't know death trying to stop my plan. It seems that I have no choice but to take action.”Li Hun was shocked and said,""I wonder who has the guts to obstruct the Empress 'plan?”
"Humph!" "It's said that she's the third princess of the Jade Emperor." But don't worry, her magic power has already been reduced by half, so she's no threat to us. I have already received news that she seems to be entangled with the two princes. We can use this to kill her with a borrowed knife. Although the Empress was brainwashed by her, I don't believe that she can brainwash everyone!”As she spoke, she revealed a cold smile that made one's hair stand on end.
'Li Hun' was still a little worried."Empress, the little demon thinks that although her magic power has been reduced by half, she is still an immortal. We should be careful.”
"What are you afraid of? I have the best chess piece in my hands! Oh right, how's Princess Bingyue?”" Li Hun " smiled." I've been absorbing her pure Yin energy and the Yang energy of living people every day. She's getting weaker and weaker."”
"Yes, as long as I don't kill him. Such a pure Yin body is very rare, so I asked you to marry her.”
"Understood, Empress."
