"How do you feel now? Does your wound hurt?" Chen Yuan looked at Ming Cheya with concern. Although the wound healed in an instant, there was no guarantee that it would not hurt.
"Helplessness. " It's fine, don't worry." Ming Cheya frowned and was very dissatisfied with her current situation. However, when she saw the mortal's worried face, she finally consoled him.
"Well, that's good." Shen Yuan once again buried Ming Cheya deep in his embrace. At the same time, he finally heaved a huge sigh of relief.
Although Ming Cheya felt that the mortal's silly smile was very ugly, she did not know why she felt unusually warm in her heart.
Hongye and the servant looked at the two of them in a daze. That person with a silly smile was really our prince. Could it be that he was replaced by someone else?
"Are you hungry? Do you want to eat?" Chen Yuan stroked Ming Cheya's hair and asked with a gentle smile.
"Yes."
"Hongye, go get some porridge.”Shen Yuan turned around and ordered.
Hearing Chen Yuan's voice, Hongye finally came back to his senses from his guess that the prince had been possessed. He quickly agreed and then left with his servants.
"Butler, that woman can't be the future mistress of the prince's mansion, right? However, since that woman came yesterday, the Imperial Residence…"
"Watch your mouth."
Before the servant could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Hongye. His threatening gaze with killing intent made the servant, who was originally a little afraid, start to tremble.
"Yes, yes, yes." The servant lowered his head and quickly replied,"I will be careful, Butler."”
On the other hand, Manzhu and Shahua, who were originally sleeping, noticed that the princess had woken up and teleported to the Sunken Abyss room.
Princess, you're finally awake." Manzhu knelt by the bed and held Ming Cheya's hand as she looked at her with teary eyes. Although she had been very calm before, Manzhu was actually very afraid. She was just worried that something might happen to the princess. Sha Hua also heaved a sigh of relief at this moment. The tense expression on his face for the past few days had also relaxed a lot.
"It's alright now." Ming Cheya raised her left hand and gently stroked Manzhu's head as she consoled her. At the same time, she looked at Sha Hua, who was standing at the side..
"Yes." Manzhu wiped her tears and said," Princess, don't do this again." You scared us to death this time."
"Yes, princess, don't do this anymore. What if something happened to you? What would happen to His Majesty the Underworld King?”Sha Hua also tried to persuade him.
His Majesty the Underworld King? Chen Yuan could not help but be shocked. Could it be the Nether King who was in charge of life and death in the three worlds? No wonder Xianjun's charm was useless against her, and no wonder she was unhappy to be called a monster. So she was the daughter of Yama!
As he thought about it, Chen Yuan's smile grew wider.
Ming Cheya looked at the mortal who was in a better mood than before and slowly answered,""Okay, I'll be careful next time."
"Princess!" Manzhu and Sha Hua shouted in unison.
How could the princess not cherish herself like this? She almost didn't make it back this time. What if something happened next time?!
"Don't do this next time. I'd rather be injured than have anything happen to you.”Chen Yuan said to Ming Cheya.
Looking at Chen Yuan's worried and distressed expression, Ming Cheya swallowed the words she was about to say and nodded.""I know. But I'll protect you. You won't get hurt.”And I won't allow you to get hurt
Ming Cheya didn't finish her sentence. She didn't know why, but she felt a little embarrassed to say it out loud because she was worried about this mortal.
Seeing Ming Cheya's stubborn expression, Chen Yuan sighed and said,""I understand. But remember, you have to protect yourself well. Don't let this happen again. Otherwise, I won't need your protection anymore.”
When she heard the " no need " in Chen Yuan's words, she looked up at the mortal and realized that his expression was unusually serious. This made Ming Cheya's heart tighten. Her free left hand could not help but tug at his sleeve. After a long while, she replied in a low voice,""I understand. I will protect myself well in the future.”
"Well, that's good." After he finished speaking, Shen Yuan raised his hand again and gently stroked Ming Cheya's head.
Manzhu and Sha Hua looked at what had happened in front of them with their mouths agape. How could the princess compromise so easily? One had to know that the princess was famous for her stubbornness in the three worlds. As long as she made a decision, even nine bulls would not be able to pull her back. Today, it was because of a single sentence from this human. And what was with the warm atmosphere between the princess and that mortal?
"Wangye, the porridge is here." Hong Ye broke the silence in the room.
Chen Yuan took the porridge from Hongye's hands and stirred it a few times with a spoon to dissipate some heat. He then scooped up a spoonful and was about to feed it to Ming Cheya when he was stopped by Manzhu and Shahua.
"Wait, the princess can't eat food from the human world now.”Manzhu said hurriedly when she saw that the demon was about to feed the porridge to Ming Cheya.
Chen Yuan paused and placed the spoon back into the bowl on Hongye's tray. He turned to Manzhu and said,""Why?"
On the other hand, Hongye's entire body was stiff. He kept thinking about the word "human world". This woman was indeed not human!
"The princess 'body is too weak, so she usually eats some special and exquisite food, like the flower petals and some pills you've seen before. The things in the human world were too rough. It was not good for the princess's health to mix too many things. Although she could eat some of it normally, it was better not to eat these things now that the princess was injured.”Manzhu explained slowly.
Moreover, the princess didn't care much about these things. In the past, it was the Nether King who paid attention to these things. After she and Shahua were born, it was them.
"Yes, I understand." Chen Yuan replied, then turned to Manzhu and said,"Then go get something that Xiaodie can eat."”
Hearing this unfamiliar name, Manzhu did not react for a moment. After a while, she realized that it was Princess, but there was no Die in Princess 'name. Moreover, this demon was really too much. He was so intimate even when they were calling each other by name.
This made Manzhu gnash her teeth in anger. However, due to the demon's terrifying power, he didn't unleash it. In the end, he dragged Sha Hua out to cook for Ming Cheya. Of course, they used special food from the Heaven Realm.
After a while, Hongye walked out of Chenyuan's residence with unsteady steps. He was going to find two female servants for that woman.
Looking at his highness's words, could it be that they would really have a female master who was not a human but a demon in the future? His Highness also had that kind of system. What should he do?
The room once again returned to silence.
Ever since Ming Cheya woke up, Chen Yuan had maintained his half-hugging position. He did not even have the slightest intention of letting go. Ming Cheya felt that this mortal's embrace was unusually warm, so she tacitly approved of his actions.
"Why did you call me Xiao Die?" Ming Cheya felt a sense of familiarity and warmth when she heard this name.
"I don't know. When I was thinking about how to call you, this name naturally appeared in my mind. What, you don't like it?" Chen Yuan lowered his head and asked.
" No," Ming Cheya shook her head slowly." That's good."”
After saying that, he closed his eyes tiredly.
"Sleep first. I'll wake you up when Manzhu and the others come back.”Shen Yuan patted her back and said softly.
"Yes." Ming Cheya answered in a low voice in a daze and soon fell asleep.
At this moment, in the Qinzheng Hall of the imperial palace of Xingchen Kingdom, Emperor Chen Ke was reading the memorials that had been uploaded from all over the country.
"Emperor, the messenger Zhang Cheng requests an audience.”Jiang Xin, who was about 40 years old, lowered his head and said respectfully to the Supreme Being sitting in front of him.
"Xuan." Chen Ke was about 30 years old. She had an ordinary face, but the cold light emitted from her eyes and the dignified temperament around her made people submit to her. At this moment, he was wearing a bright yellow robe and sitting on the dragon throne, making people even more afraid to act rashly.
"Send out the order for the soldier to request an audience." Jiang Xin shouted.
After a while, a man in armor walked in and knelt down on one knee before Chen Ke. He cupped his fists and said respectfully,""Long live my emperor."
"Get up." Chen Ke put down the memorial and looked at the regulations." What's the matter?”
"Thank you, emperor. I have received King Jing's orders. The army has already reached five miles away from the jade crown. May I ask the emperor when the army will enter the capital?”Zhang Cheng said respectfully.
"Ten days later." After that, Chen Ke picked up the memorial and continued reading.
"Yes, I am. Then I'll take my leave."
Seeing Zhang Cheng walk away, Chen Ke said,""Where is Little Four now?"
Little Four was the nickname of the Sunken Abyss.
"King Jing has already returned to his residence. And this time, he even brought back a woman who didn't seem to be human.”
"Oh." Chen Ke was a little surprised. She frowned and said in a deep voice," Is the news confirmed?”
"Yes, I am. This old servant has already sent someone to confirm it.”
Chen Ke put down the memorial in her hand and massaged her temples. The joy of victory in the war was also greatly dampened by his brother's reckless actions. The Sunken Abyss had never stopped since it was born. It was either captured by demons or sick. This time, it even brought back a woman who was not human. The Imperial Tutor had said that he was a natural spiritual body and was a great tonic for those demons and ghosts, yet he still did this.
Chen Ke sighed in her heart and said,""Follow me to take a look tonight."
"Yes."
At the same time, the Empress Dowager's chamber, the Palace of Earthly Tranquility, was unusually quiet. It was only because Empress Dowager Li Hui was currently sitting on a soft couch embroidering something in her hand that she realized it was a man's outer garment upon closer inspection.
Although Li Hui was already 50 years old, she had taken good care of herself, so the years had not left too many traces on her. At this moment, one could still see the elegance of her youth.
