Hearing the word "Lilang", the prince couldn't help but frown.
When Nanny Zhao, who was lying on the ground, saw the prince frowning, she suddenly came to her senses and realized that she had said the wrong thing.
However, Nanny Zhao soon discovered something was wrong. It was already late at night, why was the prince coming to her place?
Especially after that madman left.
Connecting the two, she couldn't help but think, "Your Highness..."
The prince ignored the slightly surprised look in Zhao Ma's eyes. He walked in slowly, glanced around the room, and finally set his eyes on the silver-white robe in the woman's arms.
Nanny Zhao sat on the ground, feeling the man's burning gaze, and she hugged the robe in her arms nervously.
Your Highness, do you know everything?
How much does he know?
"Wet nurse." Just when Zhao Ma was feeling uneasy, the prince suddenly called her.
She quickly raised her head and looked into the man's cold eyes. Her heart couldn't help but beat faster.
"Your Highness." Nanny Zhao knelt on the ground and reflexively wanted to reach out and grab the hem of his clothes, but before she could touch it, she was stopped by the prince's cold eyes.
The powerful oppressive feeling brought by the intimidating eyes made her dare not reach out and touch him.
The prince sat down on a chair beside him and said in a cold voice, "Nurse, don't you have anything to say to me?"
After hearing this, Madam Zhao's eyes lit up. Is His Highness giving her a chance?
As long as she tells His Highness everything she knows, will he forgive her?
"Your Highness, I... I lied to you. I am actually a spy from Nanyuan. Eighteen years ago, I was ordered by my master to lie dormant in Dongming."
After saying this, Nanny Zhao subconsciously looked up at the prince and saw that his eyes were cold and he was still looking at her calmly.
She continued, "But I have never done anything to let His Highness down. I stopped contacting Nanyuan five years ago. I..."
"Do you mean that you betrayed your master five years ago?" asked the prince.
It was not a pleasant thing to say about betraying the master this time, but Madam Zhao didn't care.
"The Lord ordered me to take your life, Your Highness, but after all, I have watched you grow up, so how can I bear to kill you?"
Nanny Zhao's original name was Zhao Ji. She was a top-notch assassin in the Nanyuan royal family. Eighteen years ago, she was ordered to lie dormant in Dongming and secretly report information, but she never thought that she would meet the person she loved, and she even watched this person grow up with her own eyes.
She didn't know which step she made wrong. Perhaps it was the stunning sword dance of the fourteen-year-old prince at the palace banquet, or the calmness and composure of the prince when faced with great difficulties that made her fall in love with him.
His Highness was different from any man she had ever met. He seemed to be born in high rank, a spotless and holy solitary lotus on the snowy mountains.
She couldn't imagine what kind of woman could be worthy of such a prince?
What kind of woman would make him lose control, go crazy, and pull this proud and lonely lotus out of the mortal world?
If this person was her, she would be willing to give up everything for him and be his servant forever, even if it meant death.
But why...why would His Highness fall for that woman? !
What was so good about that woman? Apart from her pretty face, she was nothing compared to her love.
"Your Highness... Your Highness, I know many secrets of Nanyuan. As long as Your Highness wants to know, I can tell you. As long as... As long as Your Highness looks at me, even just for a moment..."
Zhao Ji knelt in front of the man, almost in a flattering manner, tightly grasping the hem of his clothes, and even bent down to kiss the upper of the man's shoes.
The prince's eyes flashed with disgust when he saw this scene, and he kicked her away, "Don't do this!"
"I'm asking you, why did you make my Crown Princess drink contraceptive soup?"
"Why?" Zhao Ji, who was kicked away by the man, was not angry. Instead, she couldn't help laughing when she heard his words. "Your Highness, why do you say that? How can a woman like that be worthy of bearing Your Highness's child? Only I, obviously, am worthy of Your Highness."
"Your Highness, do you dislike the fact that I am not a virgin? Although I am not a virgin, I am very clean. I..."
Zhao Ji wanted to say something else, but when she saw the deep disgust in the prince's eyes, she felt a sudden pain in her heart.
"Your Highness, do you... dislike me?"
Prince: "I've never loved you, so why would I dislike you?"
When Zhao Ji heard these eight words, she felt like someone was stabbing her heart with a knife.
How could he say such cruel things when he had never loved me before?
"Haha, I've never loved you. Your Highness, you saying that really hurts me. I didn't want to do this, but it's your Highness' fault for not loving me. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being defenseless and daring to come see me alone!"
As Zhao Ji spoke, a red poisonous insect crawled out from her sleeve and flew towards the prince.
The prince's eyes flashed coldly, and he dodged it in a flash.
Seeing this, Zhao Ji couldn't help but sneer, "Your Highness, don't waste your energy. My martial arts are superior to yours. You are no match for me."
Zhao Ji held the insect in her hand. When she thought that after His Highness took the insect, he would fall in love with her wholeheartedly, her heart beat uncontrollably faster.
But before the smile on her face could fully unfold, two dark figures flashed into the room.
Only then did she realize that he had not come alone.
As a killer from Nanyuan, Zhao Ji's fighting skills are naturally not bad, but the two royal killers from Dongming in front of her seem to be stronger than her.
She might have a chance of winning against one person alone, but against two people she seemed to be unable to do so.
Before the two sides had exchanged two moves, she felt a pain in her waist and abdomen and was pinned to the ground.
"No need to leave anyone alive." The man's cold voice came.
Zhao Ji's eyes widened in shock, but before she could say anything, she heard a crisp snapping sound from her neck.
The next second, she fell to the ground lifeless, and until her death her eyes were still looking in the direction of the prince.
The prince didn't even look at her and ordered her body to be disposed of.
He said that anyone who hurt his princess must die.
Late at night, East Palace.
Yu Shiyin was sleeping soundly when she heard a slight sound beside her ears. She opened her eyes drowsily and saw a figure standing beside the bed. She whispered, "Your Highness?"
"Um?"
Hearing the sound, the prince came towards her.
Yu Shiyin looked at the man's slightly damp hair and was stunned for a moment. "Did His Highness go to take a shower?"
"Um."
"Didn't you wash it before?"
"Hmm," the prince hummed, kissing her neck softly.
Yu Shiyin looked at the prince who was kissing her in front of her, with some confusion in her eyes. Why did she feel that the prince had become a little weird since the evening?
Weird... clingy.
