There seemed to be movement on the roof again, and Xuan Yuanzhan frowned and remained silent for a moment.
Su Xuening panicked and immediately stood up, looking at Xuan Yuanzhan nervously: "Who exactly is it?"
Seeing Su Xuening's nervous appearance, Xuan Yuanzhan felt a pang of heartache and finally spoke, "Xuan Yuanyu."
"Xuanyuan Yu!" Su Xuening exclaimed in disbelief, her usually clear mind going completely blank for a moment.
How could it be Xuanyuan Yu?!
Thinking back to her past life, when Xuan Yuan Yu and Su Fei Ling conspired to rip out her child's heart and offer it to the Emperor, she simply couldn't accept this premise.
If it really is Xuanyuan Yu, then he killed his own child with his own hands.
How is that possible?
Even a tiger wouldn't eat its cubs. No matter how ruthless Xuanyuan Yu is, he wouldn't do that!
"Ning'er." Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Xuan Yuanzhan hugged her tightly and gently stroked her back.
With Xuan Yuanzhan's comforting words, Su Xuening's blank mind gradually cleared up.
"It's not Xuan Yuan Yu!" In the darkness, Su Xue Ning finally regained some composure, raising her eyes urgently to look at Xuan Yuan Zhan: "That night, Xuan Yuan Yu was dragged from the capital city by Su Fei Ling and Su Mu Yao to the ruined temple to catch them in the act. He simply didn't have time to appear at the Cold Pool. So it absolutely couldn't be Xuan Yuan Yu!!!"
Moreover, since Xuanyuan Yu likes her so much, if it really is Xuanyuan Yu, he could use this to marry her as a concubine. Perhaps he wouldn't even need a principal wife position; just a concubine or secondary wife would be enough to bring her, who is no longer a virgin, into his harem.
Another possibility is that Xuanyuan Yu doesn't know that the person in the cold pool is her!
Even if he doesn't know in this life, he should have known in his past life!
In his past life, he had tried to violate her several times, but he had seen the red flowers entwined on her arm more than once. Every time he saw those red flowers, he would think of the time she was defiled by the beggar, so he never made a move.
If he were the one afflicted by the Love Flower Gu, he couldn't possibly be unaware of the Love Flower Entwined Branch, and he should also know that it wasn't those beggars who defiled her. His martial uncle had said that the Love Flower Gu within her would only have no backlash against that man.
If it really was Xuanyuan Yu, then in his past life, Xuanyuan Yu had absolutely no reason not to touch her! Given his obsession and infatuation with her, it was impossible for him not to touch her!
Therefore, it could never be Xuanyuan Yu's!
Even any man in the world could be, but he, Xuan Yuan Yu, could never be!
Of course, she could accept any man in the world, but she simply could not accept Xuan Yuan Yu, the culprit who killed her child!
Sensing Su Xuening's disgust and rejection of Xuan Yuan Yu, Xuan Yuan Zhan soothed her with a light kiss on the forehead: "It's not him, don't think about it anymore, go to sleep."
Su Xuening was terrified by the news about Xuan Yuan Yu, and only felt warmer now that Xuan Yuan Zhan was holding her in his arms. Even though Xuan Yuan Zhan was holding her through the blanket, she still felt that his embrace was as reliable as a mountain and as warm as fire. At this moment, she experienced an unprecedented sense of security in his arms.
Xuanyuan Yu was born in the year, month, hour, and day of Gengshen. It's amazing that such a special birth date and time could coincide with that person's.
Although Xuanyuan Yu couldn't possibly be that man, she still needed to check his birth date and time.
The Imperial Observatory should have the princes' birth dates and times; she can go there to check!
Su Xuening thought she would be unable to sleep because of her overthinking, but perhaps because she was pregnant and prone to drowsiness, or perhaps because Xuan Yuanzhan's embrace was really warm, she fell asleep without realizing it in no time.
Listening to Su Xuening's even and long breathing, and confirming that Su Xuening was asleep, Xuan Yuanzhan gently released her, got out of bed, put on his clothes, took his sword, and flew to the roof.
Seeing the woman reclining on his roof, Xuan Yuanzhan's face darkened horribly: "Long Jiaojiao, how dare you trespass into my Holy King's Mansion! You're courting death!"
The sharp sword pierced straight for Long Jiaojiao's throat, but Long Jiaojiao was not afraid at all. She simply raised the spiked whip in her hand and said, "If you want to wake that woman up, this Holy Maiden doesn't mind playing with you!"
Su Xuening is practically Xuan Yuanzhan's Achilles' heel; she's always right!
Xuan Yuanzhan abruptly stopped his sword, glaring coldly at Long Jiaojiao: "You persistent ghost, what exactly do you want!"
Long Jiaojiao gave Xuan Yuanzhan a charming smile: "I told you, I'll keep an eye on you!"
As if she had thought of something, Long Jiaojiao said wickedly, "Don't take any chances. This Holy Maiden almost crushed the mother Gu just now!"
Xuanyuan Zhan glared at Long Jiaojiao with a sinister look, without saying a word.
This woman really overheard their conversation inside the house; she's like a persistent ghost!
Long Jiaojiao suddenly stood up, walked up to Xuan Yuanzhan, and said with a wicked smile as if she could see through his thoughts, "Don't think that I don't know what you're up to. If she only found out the truth after you reminded her, then I won't honor this bet! I will still destroy the mother Gu!"
Such threats had numbed Xuan Yuanzhan; he never believed what the woman said from beginning to end, nor did he agree to any of her bets!
Regardless of whether he did what she said or not, she would never willingly give him the mother Gu!
Xuan Yuanzhan's eyes gleamed slightly: "I just gave you a great gift. You just heard it, the third prince of Dong Chu, Xuan Yuan Yu, also has a Yang constitution. You don't need to keep an eye on me anymore. Whatever you want me to do, he can do for you!"
"Tsk~" These words hit Long Jiaojiao's point of interest. Long Jiaojiao said with great interest, "I didn't expect that a royal family of Dongchu would have so many good things hidden away. This trip to Dongchu was worth it."
Thinking that besides Xuanyuan Zhan, the Eastern Chu royal family also had a person with an extremely yang physique, Long Jiaojiao became very interested: "I will accept this great gift from you, but you, Xuanyuan Zhan, will always be the one I want the most. We have a long future ahead of us!"
After saying that, Long Jiaojiao leaped into the air and disappeared into the night.
As soon as Long Jiaojiao left, Ye Feng appeared, bowing with shame: "Your Highness, it was my dereliction of duty, please punish me!"
Ye Feng watched Long Jiaojiao's disappearing figure, feeling both alarmed and apprehensive.
The Holy King's Mansion has many secret guards, yet that woman was able to break through them all and arrive at the Prince's Linshui Pavilion undetected, which shows how unfathomable her martial arts skills are.
If it weren't for the prince's high level of martial arts, I'm afraid no one in the entire Holy Prince's Mansion would have been able to find her!
Xuanyuan Zhan narrowed his eyes menacingly: "Follow her. I need to know where she lives."
"Yes," Ye Feng replied, and immediately leaped after him.
Xuanyuan Zhan stood on the roof without moving.
A short while later, Ye Feng returned: "Your Highness, she has entered the palace."
...Xuanyuan Zhan was speechless.
She's so impatient!
However, he has a new target and should stop bothering him for the time being!
