The prison cell was eerily quiet, and only Xingyun's cries could be heard. The lit torch suddenly dimmed, and Xingyun's cries stopped abruptly. The guard quickly turned around, but Xingyun's shadow was nowhere to be seen. There was only the empty prison cell and the jewelry that had fallen from her body. The guard was suddenly stunned, and his expression was sorrowful. It was over. His family was finished. His youngest son, who was not even a month old, his wife, who had just given birth, and his mother, who was already in her sixties, were all finished. He had been by Murong Yu's side for so many years, and he knew this young Emperor's character the best. He would do what he said, and he would never go back on his word.
In the Falling Cherry Pavilion, Ye Xin threw Xingyun in front of Bai Feng and another young man.
"Sister Ye Xin is afraid that we will be lonely and sent us women?”The youth smiled.
"Su Fu, be serious. I called you back from the branch to help Bai Feng manage the Falling Cherry Pavilion. This woman wanted to murder the young miss, and the young miss asked her to tell me who was behind it. I'll give you an hour. Su Fu?" Ye Xin looked at the young man in front of her who was growing more and more enchanting.
"An hour? Sister Ye Xin, you're underestimating me too much. Don't worry, I won't need an hour. Leave this matter to me and let Master rest assured.”The young man smiled as he dragged the terrified Nebula away.
"Bai Feng, do you have something to say?" Ye Xin looked at the silent Bai Feng.
"I'll have to trouble Sister Ye Xin to pass this to Master.”Bai Feng took out a letter that carried a faint lotus fragrance.
"Is it a letter from Xiao Yu?" Among the people that Ye Xin knew, only Xiao Yu would have the time to put the Hundred Steps Incense on a letter. This incense was a recipe that Bei Xunying had found in the Secret Record of Falling Sakura. Other than those who practiced a fixed mental cultivation method, anyone who encountered it would slowly die in their sleep. Therefore, this incense was also known as Drunken Life and Dream Death. Of course, this was only for people with average martial arts. For people who practiced extremely high martial arts, this incense would only make them lose their minds for a moment. It did not have much effect. When he first developed it, Bei Xunying thought that it was useless and gave the formula to White Feather. In any case, this incense was useless to the members of the Falling Cherry Pavilion who had been following Bei Xunying to cultivate their internal arts.
"I beg elder sister Ye Xin to pass it to master. Xiao Yu said that she has something important to report.”Bai Feng said.
"We're a family. I'll take the letter with me. It'll be hard on you when Miss isn't around.”Ye Xin turned around and left, bringing along countless cherry blossom petals in the courtyard of the Falling Cherry Pavilion.
In the imperial palace of Yangxin Kingdom, Murong Yu and Murong Han appeared in Bei Xunying's palace. Bei Xunying was leaning against a chair, staring blankly in a certain direction. She seemed to be thinking about something, and even when they appeared, they did not notice. Following her line of sight, it was the cherry blossom tree in the corner of the courtyard. It was the cherry blossom season at the moment, and the cherry blossoms in the palace were especially brilliant this year. North Seeker Sakura was lost in her thoughts as she recalled her past life. When she had just gotten pregnant, Baili Moyu had brought her to see the cherry blossoms. She would never forget that shocking sea of cherry blossoms. It was also at that moment that she began to love cherry blossoms and began to trust Baili Moyu 100%, but in the end…
In his previous life.
"Ying, let your husband bring you to a place today, okay?”This was the first time Baili Moyu, who was always busy, had taken the initiative to bring her out to play.
"Alright, alright." At that time, Bei Xunying was still naive and innocent.
The carriage traveled for a long time before he carried her out of the carriage. When she opened her eyes again, she was greeted by endless cherry blossoms. She was so happy that day.
"Do you like it? This king had ordered people to prepare this long ago. I originally planned to bring you here during our wedding, but it's a pity that it's not yet the flowering season. After we get married, this king will be too busy. Don't blame me.”Back then, Baili Moyu's eyes were as beautiful as a painting, and she was as gentle as jade. She had completely melted Bei Xunying's heart.
"Third Sister, Third Sister?" Murong Han's voice rang in Bei Xunying's ears, and she suddenly pulled herself out of her memories.
"What? You guys are here?" Bei Xunying was still staring at them in a daze.
"Third Sister likes cherry blossoms very much?" Murong Yu asked.
"Yes, I can always remember a lot of beautiful things.”Bei Xunying had a faint smile on her face, quiet and gentle. It was completely different from his usual cold and heartless appearance.
"If you like it, zhen will order people to move the cherry blossoms in the imperial garden here, okay?”Murong Yu truly treated Bei Xunying as his younger sister and doted on her.
"No need. I'll go over and take a look when I'm free.”Bei Xunying shook her head.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Xingyun, she…”The guards hurried over.
"Where is she?" Murong Yu's eyes instantly turned cold.
"Big brother, I ordered someone to take her away. It's not his fault. You can leave first.”Bei Xunying said to the guard.
"Thank you, Your Highness." The guard cried tears of joy and left quickly.
"Miss, it's already done." Ye Xin came back with Bai Yu's letter. Because the palace was a troublesome place, she had already cleaned the incense that Bai Yu had put on the letter. However, there was still a faint aftertaste on her body, so it didn't hurt much.
"Hmm, is Su Fu back yet?" Bei Xunying's gentle expression didn't seem to exist at all. It was already cold and indifferent.
"He's already back. He's in charge of interrogating them now.”Ye Xin replied.
"Alright." Bei Xunying trusted that guy. She really admired a kid who could be on par with Bai Feng, whom she had personally taught.
"Then what should we do now?" Murong Han said lazily.
"Just in time. I have something to discuss with you.”Murong Yu glanced at Ye Xin. Ye Xin received Bei Xunying's signal and left.
"Big Brother, what do you have to tell us?”Murong Han asked.
"One is that I want to officially confer the title of princess to my third sister tomorrow and write it into my royal family's genealogy. The other is about the gathering of the three kingdoms. I want the two of you to be in charge of welcoming the emissaries of the two kingdoms.”Murong Yu said.
"Regarding the matter of conferring the title, big brother will handle it single-handedly. As for the matter of welcoming the emissary, I have no problem with it. Third sister, what do you think?”Murong Han asked.
"Since we're family, I'll naturally help you with such a small matter.”Bei Xunying nodded slightly.
"Alright, then let's discuss the details of the welcome.”Murong Yu said.
An hour later, Ye Xin brought the completely dazed Xing Yun back to Bei Xunying's palace.
"Now, Zhen asks you again, do you have an instigator behind you?”Murong Yu sat on the main seat and looked at Xingyun coldly. In terms of coldness and indifference, Murong Yu and Bei Xunying were actually quite similar.
"Yes, it was the princess who instructed this servant. If this servant didn't do it, the princess would have the empress beat this servant to death.”Xingyun was trembling as she spoke. She had received the highest treatment from Su Fu in the Falling Cherry Pavilion. Those terrifying poisonous insects and snakes, as well as the mountains of bones in the corner, made her panic and even despair. The thought of her family becoming one of them made Xingyun feel uncomfortable.
"Murong Xin `er?" Murong Han narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he was smiling, it was very cautious. Bei Xunying rarely saw Murong Han's angry expression. He was always smiling, even when he was angry. It was as if he had been put on such a mask. He was as pitiful as her.
"What benefits did she give you to make you work so hard?”Bei Xunying lifted her chin and stared at her with her deep eyes. After a while, Xingyun's eyes became empty and lifeless. Murong Yu and Murong Han did not object to Bei Xunying's actions, nor did they express any surprise at her using the Mind Control Technique.
"The younger brother at home has committed a crime. The princess promised to protect her younger brother after she succeeded.”said Xing Yun.
"What great ability. Zhen has really underestimated this Biao Younger Sister.”Murong Yu's gentle face was filled with anger that was about to explode.
"Imperial brother, don't punish her severely this time. I naturally have a way to deal with her.”Bei Xunying grabbed Murong Yu's arm and miraculously resolved Murong Yu's anger.
"As you wish. Men, pass down the imperial decree. Murong Xin `er has lost her dignity and insulted our country. But considering her young age, she will be punished to face the wall for three years. Unless there is a decree from Zhen, she is not allowed to take a single step out of the house.”Murong Yu said.
"This subject will go and deliver the decree." The attendant beside Murong Yu bowed and left.
"Third Sister, what are your plans?" Murong Yu felt that although Bei Xunying treated him well, she was too polite. She was not as casual as she was with Murong Han. She seemed to be a little careful.
"Big Brother, what do you think of Baili Moyu becoming Princess Xin `er's husband?”Bei Xunying suddenly laughed.
"Third Sister, are you serious? He's a man who was engaged to you before. When he sees you again this time, he definitely won't let you go. Why would he marry Xin `er?”Murong Han asked in confusion. Sometimes, he really couldn't understand Bei Xunying's thoughts. She was supposed to hate Baili Moyu, but sometimes, she was always on Baili Moyu's side. However, there were also times when she hated him to the bone and didn't even want to see him.
"You can play however you want. As long as you don't lose your sense of propriety, zhen will stand on your side.”Murong Yu said.
"Thank you, big brother. Right, I still have one more request. Can I ask Imperial Brother to hold the princess's coronation ceremony after the banquet?”Bei Xunying lowered her head slightly as a form of greeting.
"Things are busy now. Since you said so, it's naturally good. I will let you do whatever you want. As long as you don't go too far, I will pretend that I didn't see it. Third Sister can do what you want. This is your home, don't be too restrained. Second Brother, let's go. Let Third Sister rest well.”Murong Yu brought Murong Han out of Beixun Ying's palace.
"Where's Little Yu's letter?" After watching them leave the palace, Bei Xunying reached out her hand to Ye Xin.
