Xia Qingchen found it very strange that every time she met Jiang Muyu, it was in some occasions where she shouldn't be there.

Just like this time.

He frowned as he looked at the little girl who suddenly appeared in his room.

Then he drew out his long sword and pointed it at her throat, "Tell me, who sent you here?"

Her legs went limp, and she fell to her knees with a thud, her face tearing as she said, "Young man, please show some mercy. Let me explain..."

He snorted coldly and said with a smile: "With your little courage, you dare to be an assassin?"

"I'm not an assassin, really." Jiang Muyu quickly shook his head, then felt a sharp pain in his neck and froze immediately, "hiss——"

The long sword in his hand was too close to her, and her fair skin was immediately cut by the sharp sword blade when she moved so violently, and blood flowed out slowly.

"What are you doing?" He immediately put away the sword.

Jiang Muyu touched her neck and felt blood. She was so scared that she immediately started crying. Tears as big as beans fell down her face like crazy.

Emperor Xuan Cang had only two sons. He was two years older than his younger brother. When interacting with his younger brother, he always acted like an elder brother and was strict and rigid.

It was the first time in my life that I met such a cute little girl. I was a little flustered for a moment and said with a straight face: "Don't cry!"

However, she felt even more aggrieved and burst into tears with a hoarse voice, "Wow."

Xia Qingchen suddenly felt a headache and said helplessly: "I don't blame you for breaking into my bedroom. Can you please stop crying?"

However, she yelled at the top of her voice: "You still blame me? Do you think I wanted to come here? I woke up here and I didn't want to be here! I thought I was dreaming, but you scratched my neck and it hurts so much."

He felt like the veins on his forehead were about to pop out. He walked to the door, opened it, and shouted to the outside, "Maoxian!"

"Hey, I'm here. What do you want, Your Highness?"

"Call Doctor Pei Yu over to me!"

Maoxian was stunned for a moment, and looked him up and down, "Your Highness, are you feeling unwell?"

"Yes, go!"

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Mao Xian hurriedly withdrew and quickly brought Doctor Pei Yu over. He knocked on the door and said, "Your Highness, Doctor Pei Yu is here."

Xia Qingchen opened the door to one side and said coldly, "Doctor Pei Yu can come in alone. You stay outside the door. If anyone comes to see you, tell them that I am busy."

"Yes." Although Maoxian felt it was strange, he did not dare to ask more questions. He watched Doctor Pei Yu walk in, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince immediately closed the door.

He wanted to stick his head in to take a look, but was almost hit in the face by the door. He touched his nose awkwardly and thought to himself, "Don't look at anything indecent, don't listen to anything indecent."

Doctor Pei Yu had hurried over after hearing that the Crown Prince was unwell. After entering the room, he discovered that there was a little girl in the Crown Prince's room.

The little face was wrinkled from crying, the almond eyes were swollen from crying, and there was a bloodstain on the white neck, looking ugly and wolfish.

Xia Qingchen said, "Doctor Pei Yu, please treat her wound quickly."

"Okay." Doctor Pei Yu didn't dare to ask more questions. He took out the medicine box and began to carefully treat the wound on the little girl's neck.

The blood on her neck had dyed the collar of her clothes red, which looked scary. But after cleaning off the excess blood, the exposed scar was not even as long as a little finger, and the wound was so shallow that it was as thin as a hair.

Xia Qingchen was sitting nearby, and when he saw him suddenly stop, he asked, "Why don't you bandage her?"

Doctor Pei Yu said, "Right away, right away."

He actually wanted to say that it would be a waste of gauze to even bandage such a minor injury, but what could he do since the prince asked him to do so?

So Doctor Pei Yu applied some medicine to the little girl's wound and wrapped it with gauze twice to bandage it.

"Your Highness, it's bandaged."

"Well, you can leave now."

"Yes." Doctor Pei Yu put away the medicine box.

Xia Qingchen added: "Keep this matter a secret for me, and don't tell anyone who asks."

Doctor Pei Yu nodded, "I understand."

"Very good, you can go now."

"I'll take my leave." Doctor Pei Yu walked out carrying the medicine box.

After Doctor Pei Yu left, only Xia Qingchen and Jiang Muyu were left in the room.

He stared at her for a moment until she felt uncomfortable.

"Why are you staring at me like that?"

Xia Qingchen then looked away, walked to the table and sat down, tapping the tabletop with his fingers, and said, "Tell me, how did you sneak into my bedroom quietly without being discovered by the guards outside? What is your purpose?"

Jiang Muyu let out a long sigh, her voice still a little hoarse from crying, "I told you I was here when I woke up, I don't know what happened."

He frowned. "Do you think I would believe this nonsense?"

"I can't help it if you don't believe me." Jiang Muyu stood up, measured himself, and said, "Look at me, how old do you think I am?"

He looked her up and down. The little girl was about four feet tall, thin and small, with a flat body, and looked no more than ten years old.

"Eight...nine years old?"

"Yes!" She wanted to snap her fingers like in the cartoons, but no sound came out. However, she didn't feel embarrassed. "I am exactly nine years old this year."

She is actually one year older than him.

Xia Qingchen pursed her lips and looked at her, "What do you want to express?"

Jiang Muyu held his forehead with his hand, looking very helpless: "Don't you understand? I'm only nine years old this year. Can I fly over eaves and walls or pass through walls and hide underground? What other reason could there be for me to suddenly appear in your room?"

Xia Qingchen thought about it and felt that what she said made sense. He had been in the room all along. If she didn't really have the ability to go to heaven and earth, he should have been able to notice such a living person sneaking into his room, instead of him suddenly seeing her when he turned around.

But if it was really as she said, it was really unbelievable that I appeared here as soon as I woke up.

Jiang Muyu sat back down, propping up his chin with one hand, also with a distressed look on his face, "Young man, let alone you, even I don't understand what's going on."

Xia Qingchen blinked and said, "Did you also appear suddenly the last two times?"

At this point, she suddenly looked excited, crossed her legs, and said, "You may not believe this, but the first time I woke up, I was in a brothel near the building where you took me. God, you don't know how stunned I was at that time. I've only seen that scene in costume dramas before. Those pretty sisters are much prettier than in TV dramas. Every one of them smells good, and..."

Seeing that she was getting more and more outrageous, Xia Qingchen frowned and interrupted her chattering, "Okay, what about the second time?"

"The second time is now."

"Hmm? Didn't we just meet once last time?"

"I did see it once, but that day I accidentally fell into a very deep ditch while walking, and then I woke up and found myself in the hospital. I thought it was just a very real dream, until this time, I believe it is not a dream."

Xia Qingchen now looked at her as if she were a fool. He slammed the table, stood up, and said coldly: "I must be sick to be here listening to your nonsense! Someone come..."

Hearing that he was going to call for help, Jiang Muyu's face immediately changed color. She rushed over and hugged his thighs, crying, "Don't, Your Highness, please believe me. I really didn't lie to you. Not only did I find that I was not dreaming, I also found that I would be hungry and cold here. It would be especially painful to fall into the ditch. It would also be painful to be cut by you. Everything is real. Please don't shake me. It also hurt when those big brothers pulled my arms. My hands hurt for two days last time I went back."

Xia Qingchen was getting a headache from her noise. Seeing her crying with snot bubbles coming out, he wanted to push her away in disgust, but found that she held on tightly and he couldn't move at all.

I could only say helplessly: "Okay, stop howling, I won't call anyone."

Jiang Muyu then let go of his hand, sat on the ground as if relieved of a heavy burden, and wiped the tears from his face.

He sighed and said, "I can see that you can really cry."

"Hehe...thank you for the compliment."

"Are you still feeling proud?"

Jiang Muyu waved his hands and said, "With my acting skills, I feel like God owes me an Oscar."

Xia Qingchen didn't understand where she came from. Her behavior was very strange, and he couldn't understand many of the words she said.
