"Okay, I'll go in then!"
With the system's words, Ying Xixi stepped into the house and took the initiative to close the door behind her, so that she wouldn't be scared by the creaking sound of the door closing later.
Once the door was closed, the only source of light was gone, and Ying Xixi fell from brightness into darkness. Her eyes did not adapt to the darkness quickly.
She closed her eyes for a while and then opened them again. It was still pitch black in front of her, but she could barely see the vague outlines of the house.
There was very little furniture in the room. The room was bare except for a long table against the wall.
Ying Xixi suddenly remembered the altar in the ancestral hall, which was placed in the same way.
Ying Xixi: “….”
She'd better not observe like this anymore, she was afraid she would scare herself to death.
"Prince? Prince Ye, are you here?"
Ying Xixi called out twice, but no one responded.
She groped her way to the door and took two steps to the right, and then a low, hoarse voice sounded.
"stop!"
It was quite scary when the sound came so suddenly.
Ying Xixi stopped immediately.
"Your Highness, I am Ying Xixi, the daughter of the Prime Minister. You should have heard of me. After all, my secret is no longer a secret in the capital."
Ying Xixi planned to confess her purpose first.
Someone like the Night King might be impossible to approach if he's hiding a secret.
“I went to the palace a few days ago and asked the emperor to cancel my engagement with the fifth prince.
I also asked the Emperor to grant me and you, Your Highness, a marriage, but the Emperor refused, saying that at least you, Your Highness, must agree before he can grant the marriage.
So I came to see the prince. Prince, I heard that you have difficulty in having children due to your physical injury. Although outsiders know that I am infertile because I was pushed into an icy pond by the fifth prince when I was a child.
But I have a secret that only I know. The condition for me to have children is that I have to be with a man who has difficulty in having children.
My Lord, you also want to have your own offspring, right? If you marry me, I can fulfill your wish of having offspring."
Ying Xixi thought about it and decided to use the issue of having a child as a bargaining chip.
Don’t say that having children is for no reason.
She originally came to various planes to complete tasks.
Since it's a mission, don't mix it with emotions.
For ancient men, continuing the family line must be one of their wishes.
Maybe the Night King would actually agree to marry her because of this.
As long as she marries the Night King and gives birth to a child, one of the original owner's wishes will be fulfilled, and the task of having a child given by the system will also be completed. How great!
Ying Xixi waited confidently for Ye Wang to agree to her, but after waiting for a while, Ye Wang remained silent like a mute.
“???”
"Your Majesty, please tell me what you think.
Your Highness, the big dog you keep in the yard is very cute. Is there a servant to walk it?
Such a big dog is very active and needs to be walked every day."
Ying Xixi simply changed the topic to the Husky in the yard.
After being silent for a while, the Night King finally spoke.
"The servants dare not approach it, it is very fierce."
Ying Xixi: “….”
When she talked about the issue of offspring and continuation of the family line, the Night King was like a mute.
When it comes to dogs, the Night King is no longer mute.
So dogs are more important to the Night King than offspring?
While Ying Xixi was speechless, her opinion of the Night King also changed slightly.
People who are kind to animals are generally not that bad.
"The Husky isn't aggressive, it's just that the people who approach it don't use the right methods. Just now, when I came into the yard, the Husky was aggressive towards me, but now I use the right methods, and it's not aggressive anymore. It's even willing to give me a pat on the head."
At this point, Ying Xixi's eyes lit up a little.
"Your Majesty, you live here and keep Erha in the yard. This means you must like this big dog very much, right?
Erha is mean to the servants, so the servants don't dare to walk it. But Erha is not mean to me. Otherwise, why would I come here every day to help the prince walk Erha? "
This is a great opportunity to get along with the Night King openly and legitimately!
"What do you want?"
The Night King's deep and hoarse voice sounded.
"Actually, I don't really want anything, but if I have to say what I want, Your Highness, I want to marry you.
But if I talk about this now, it will inevitably seem like I'm threatening you, so I won't talk about it for now.
I just watched Erha tied up in the yard, with no one walking it. It was so pitiful."
Ying Xixi's words made the Night King silent for a moment.
"It's still early, I'll go take Erha for a walk before leaving. Your Highness, please remember to tell the servants in your house not to stop me."
After saying this, Ying Xixi opened the door and went out.
It was bright outside, and Ying Xixi suddenly came out from the darkness, which was quite dazzling.
The Husky lying in the corner of the yard saw Ying Xixi coming out, stood up and wagged its tail at her in a friendly manner.
"Good boy Erha, your master has allowed me to take you out to play in the mansion. Come on, let's go for a stroll."
Ying Xixi untied the Husky's rope and brought it to the gate of the yard.
She was just about to knock on the door to ask the person outside to open it when the door opened immediately.
When the two men in black saw Ying Xixi leading Erha out, they subconsciously took a step back and moved a little further away from Erha.
At the same time, the looks they gave Ying Xixi were very complicated.
They really didn't think that there would be someone who wasn't afraid of the dog raised by the prince!
This is a fierce dog!
Ying Xixi smiled when she noticed the actions of the two men in black.
"Don't be afraid, Erha is not vicious. Now I am taking Erha for a walk in the mansion according to the prince's order, but I don't know the way around the mansion. Can you take Erha and me there?
Or if there is an enclosed garden in the mansion, you can put the Husky in there and let it exercise on its own without worrying about it hurting people."
Although the two men in black didn't know why Ying Xixi called the fierce dog Erha, they didn't say anything.
The two of them took Ying Xixi and Erha to the plum garden in the mansion.
As the name suggests, the Plum Garden is a garden planted entirely with plum trees.
Ying Xixi put the Husky in and let it run around freely.
He then took it for a walk around the mansion with the two men in black.
After going around like this, Ying Xixi had a clear understanding of the layout of the Night King's Mansion.
The sun was about to set, so she sent the Husky back to the yard and prepared to leave.
Erha likes Ying Xixi very much. When he sees that she is about to leave, he rubs her with his furry head reluctantly.
The Night King in the room didn't make any more noise.
Ying Xixi left the Night King's Mansion directly.
The Night Prince's Mansion was neither far nor near from the Prime Minister's Mansion, so Ying Xixi just treated it as shopping and planned to walk back.
However, as soon as she walked into a small alley, she saw a familiar-looking man blocking her way.
