Chu Yue Zhao hugged her tightly, tears welling in her eyes falling onto her shoulder: "Why don't you like me anymore?"
Just as Wan Ge was about to raise her hand, but before it could land on him, the sound of rapid hoofbeats came from outside again.
When the Crown Prince appeared before them, Chu Yue Zhao had already released Wan Ge.
When he saw that Wan Ge was alright, the Crown Prince finally breathed a sigh of relief. They had been together for quite some time, and the Crown Prince had almost forgotten that she was a ghost messenger. But he was just worried that this body might get hurt. His lover would be back soon, and he didn't want this body to have any accidents at this time.
Of course, he had already considered Wan Ge a friend, and naturally he didn't want anything to happen to his friend.
After discovering that Wan Ge was unharmed, the Crown Prince turned his attention to Chu Yue Zhao: "Ninth Brother, Father said that the traitors have all been captured and he wants you to return to the palace to deal with them."
Chu Yue Zhao nodded, made a farewell gesture, and walked towards the door, but... when she reached the door, she still turned back to look at Wan Ge.
After he left, Wan Ge looked up at the Crown Prince and asked, "What exactly happened?"
When the Crown Prince appeared, Wan Ge sensed something was wrong. The two of them didn't seem to be at odds; on the contrary, they seemed to be acting normally.
The Crown Prince coughed lightly: "Well, actually, Ninth Brother did not plot a rebellion."
The Crown Prince only learned about it when he arrived at the palace; he learned it from his father, the Emperor.
It turns out that Ninth Brother had sensed something was wrong a few years ago, so he pretended to cooperate with those people, partly to protect his own safety and partly to see what they were up to.
After realizing those people's intentions, Chu Yue Zhao informed the emperor in his own way. The emperor kept it a secret from everyone and secretly contacted Chu Yue Zhao; no one except the Yellow Emperor and himself knew about it.
So much so that the crown prince was unaware of this matter until the very moment he appeared before the emperor.
They really kept it a secret.
Fortunately, the ninth brother really didn't rebel. It would be a lie to say that I have no feelings for this younger brother after all these years.
Knowing that he was not a rebel, the Crown Prince was overjoyed, and at the same time, he felt more at ease about the situation at the Crown Prince's residence.
He knew that Chu Yue Zhao wouldn't hurt Wan Ge, but he was afraid that others might hurt her, and he was also afraid that Chu Yue Zhao's love might turn into hatred.
After listening to the evening song, I breathed a sigh of relief.
The Crown Prince looked at Wan Ge before him and asked, "In a few days it will be Ninth Brother's coming-of-age ceremony. Will you leave then?"
"Mm." Wan Ge nodded.
The crown prince hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Then, would you like to spend some time with him these next few days?"
The Crown Prince had also noticed that Wan Ge's feelings for Chu Yue Zhao were not ordinary, but they were destined not to be together. After the mission was over, Wan Ge would go back to be a ghost messenger, while Chu Yue Zhao, according to her description, would have a smooth life ahead of her.
Wan Ge glanced at the Crown Prince: "Is that alright?"
"Okay, as long as we don't do that kind of thing..." The Crown Prince spoke the last few words very softly, but Wan Ge heard them clearly.
Wan Ge smiled and replied, "Your Highness, rest assured, I will never do anything too outrageous."
Wan Ge had actually received a notification from the King of Hell beforehand. The King of Hell said that Chu Yue Zhao's feelings for him were too deep, and that she should give him a bowl of soup after her mission was over.
Wan Ge researched a soup that was quite special; it could only make one person forget—the person who fed him the soup and whom he wanted to forget.
