Unlike Pei Ji, he has ankle-length hair, loosely tied with a black ribbon. Although he has the same face as Pei Ji, he exudes the lazy and charming temperament of a demon king.
The feeling of being watched came back, and the person was right in front of me.
Xue Huan seemed unaware and showed no strange expression. The next moment, she suddenly threw a punch at the air in front of her, but missed.
This guy hides so quickly!
"What are you trying to do by hiding your true intentions? Why don't you come out and talk?"
No one responded.
Xue Huan had to give up temporarily.
"Miss Xue, the Crown Princess wants you to come over and say that she wants to personally thank you for saving the young prince." After breakfast, the maidservant beside Concubine Mo Xue came over to deliver the message.
Xue Huan followed her.
When he arrived, he saw Pei Ji was there too, hugging Mo Xuefei and talking intimately.
Now seeing this scene, she felt no more emotion in her heart.
"Your Highness, go and do your work. I want to talk to Miss Xue." Concubine Mo Xue blushed as she stepped out of Pei Ji's arms and gently pushed him away.
Pei Ji stood up and said, "Then you should have a good rest and don't overwork yourself."
"I don't need to. Your Highness has told me many times." Concubine Mo Xue glared at him.
Pei Ji nodded lightly to Xue Huan and went out.
Mo Xuefei kept following his back until he completely disappeared, then she looked away. She smiled at Xue Huan embarrassedly and asked her to sit down.
She personally poured a cup of tea for her, and poured herself a cup, holding it up and saying, "Miss Xue, please forgive me. I am pregnant now and cannot drink alcohol, so I will use tea instead of wine. I would like to offer you a cup of tea. Thank you for saving Ya'er."
Xue Huan: "You don't have to thank me. I saved the young prince because I couldn't bear to see him die at such a young age. It has nothing to do with you or the Crown Prince."
Concubine Mo Xue lowered her eyes and sighed softly, "Miss Xue, I know you are still blaming me for what happened yesterday, but I hope you can understand me. As the Crown Princess, seeing His Highness bring back a beautiful girl like you, how could I not feel a sense of crisis?
"I know you are attracted to His Highness, and His Highness must not be completely indifferent to you, otherwise he would not have brought you back personally."
Seeing Xue Huan about to speak, she pressed the back of her hand, "Listen to me first. I was mistaken at first, thinking I could always have His Highness all to myself, so I instinctively repelled you when I saw you. But the truth is, His Highness is a rare talent, how could he only have me as his woman? Rather than letting any other woman enter the mansion, I would rather have you."
Xue Huan: “…”
Should she thank her for her magnanimity?
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't fulfill your wish. I don't like him anymore. Even if I still like him, I won't share him with other women. The person I like can only be me."
After saying that, she got up and left.
"etc--"
"Anything else?"
Mo Xuefei stepped forward, took her hand, and placed a jade bracelet with a very watery head on her wrist. "This jade bracelet is my thank you gift. Please accept it."
The jade bracelet was very beautiful, and it was put on her personally. Although Xue Huan didn't want it, it was difficult for her to refuse. She thought she would take it off when she got back.
She is not used to wearing things given by others.
Halfway through the journey, the jade talisman in his arms suddenly rang. It was Aunt Lin calling, but a strange and cold voice came from it.
"You have half an hour to get to the Shili Pavilion outside the imperial capital, or you'll be waiting to collect the body of the jade talisman's owner."
Snap!
The jade talisman was crushed by her.
Who was that man? How did Aunt Lin end up in his hands?
Xue Huan took out another jade talisman and tried to contact Yun Pei in Dragon Valley, but the call went unanswered for a long time. Could he be in a deep sleep? She called other people, but the results were the same. Could something have happened to everyone in Dragon Valley?
She became increasingly anxious.
Unable to get any information from her tribesmen, she could only temporarily follow what that person said and head out of the city.
His spirit also followed, flying in the air. His steps seemed leisurely and slow, but with one step, he was already several feet away. He was no slower than Xue Huan when she was controlling the flying magic weapon, and even seemed more at ease.
A no-fly magic circle was set up in the city, but Xue Huan had a special no-fly magic circle-breaking cone in her hand. The magic circle was like nothing in front of her and could not stop her at all.
They left the city unimpeded. When they were about to reach Shili Pavilion, Xue Huan slowed down and approached.
The cloud's protective shield was always on, so she was invisible at the moment, and even if the spiritual sense scanned over, she could not be found.
There was no one in the Shili Pavilion.
Xue Huan called and the call was answered. "Are you there? There's a box on the table in the pavilion, and inside the box is a medicine bottle. Take the medicine inside, and then follow the map in the box to get to the next place. Don't try to play tricks, your every move is under our surveillance."
MD!
"Wait, I need to confirm whether the owner of the jade talisman is in your hands. Ask her to say something to me, otherwise, I will not do as you say."
"Tsk, then you better listen carefully."
"Hanhuan, don't come over here, they—"
Lin Zhi was interrupted before she could finish her words. The cold voice sounded again: "Do you believe it now? Hurry up and do what I say, otherwise I can't guarantee that you will still see a complete person when you meet him."
The jade talisman was hung up.
Xue Huan held the jade talisman in her hand, her brows tightly furrowed. The voice just now was indeed Aunt Lin's.
She came to the pavilion and opened the box. Inside was a jade bottle and a simple map.
She unfolded the map, which had a rough route drawn on it like a stick figure, and at the end of the route was the destination - an unknown mountain.
She opened the medicine bottle again and poured out the pills inside. The pills were of mixed colors, showing that there were a lot of impurities, and they also had a pungent smell. Could this be eaten?
The pills she usually ate as candy were ten thousand times more advanced than this!
Xue Huan was disgusted, but still stuffed it into her mouth.
Of course, she definitely wouldn't actually take it. Who knows what the consequences would be. The moment she stuffed it into her mouth, she was transported into the space.
She found her destination according to the map, but then she received instructions to go to another place.
This happened seven or eight times in a row, and Xue Huan was dizzy. Damn, the person behind the scenes was playing tricks on her!
She was already a bit directionally challenged and now she had no idea where she was.
She must not catch the person behind this, otherwise she will cut them into pieces and feed them to the fish!
Finally she arrived, but as soon as she landed, she fell into a formation.
She did not move rashly, but just stood there, alertly looking around.
Footsteps were heard, and two masked men appeared in front of her, carrying Lin Zhi, who was tied up with ropes.
Xue Huan's eyes turned cold, and she immediately checked to see if Aunt Lin was injured.
"I'm here. Tell me what you want in exchange for letting her go."
