Before Qing Wu could make any other move, a bunch of guns were aimed at her.
Qing Wu raised her eyebrows: "Is this how the people in Yan Palace treat their own princess?"
"Back off." A male voice sounded.
The bodyguards put down their guns and their eyes became extremely alert.
Qing Wu didn't care. She kept staring at Xiao Chenyan from beginning to end.
Oh, he is full of blood and vigor, but he is also filled with evil spirits, which makes him die. If he were an ordinary person, he would have died long ago, but he is still alive and well.
No wonder his enemies wanted to use the power of ghosts to kill him.
But this evil spirit is actually very beneficial to her.
"Are you a human or a ghost?" the attendant asked unkindly. This woman was too weird.
She still keeps staring at the prince, is she trying to absorb his Yang energy?!
Qing Wu's gaze lingered on the 18-year-old's face for a few moments before moving away. She glanced at Xiao Chenyan and stretched out her hand as if to touch his face:
"Am I a human or a ghost? What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Xiao Chenyan held her wrist and felt the beating of her pulse, the scrutiny in his eyes not diminishing in the slightest.
"It seems that the Prime Minister's Mansion made a mistake. The princess is still alive."
"Yes, it's unlucky to die on the wedding night." Qing Wu also smiled, "A funeral has been turned into a wedding. Are you happy, Your Majesty?"
Xiao Chenyan's tone was unpredictable, "Happy?"
Qing Wu laughed out loud and climbed up the pole: "Since you are so happy, why don't you continue the bridal chamber?"
When these words were spoken, everyone in the palace almost choked.
Xiao Chenyan's grip on her pulse gradually increased: "I am curious, how did the princess crawl out of the coffin?"
Qing Wu raised her eyebrows and hissed, complaining: "It hurts~ Your Majesty, please be gentle with me."
The man remained unmoved, exuding a dangerous aura.
Qing Wu sighed inwardly before answering, "Wasn't it my sister who crawled out of the coffin?"
She turned black into white without blinking an eye: "When the Shangshu Mansion marries off a daughter, one is born and the other dies. Now I am alive, and the one who died married in, so she is my sister."
Xiao Chenyan: "What nonsense."
"Whether it's nonsense or human words, as long as it's useful, it's fine." Qing Wu was held by the wrist by him and moved closer to him. The two of them were very close to each other.
The guards around were getting closer and closer to Qing Wu's hands. As long as Qing Wu dared to make the slightest movement, they would immediately take action to rescue her.
"Speaking of which, Your Majesty should thank me. Did you see the fainted demon?"
Qing Wu pursed her red lips and said, "This man wanted to cast a spell to harm people in the palace. He deserves what he got. Your Majesty, you must take him away for a thorough investigation."
"Alas, I don't know what tricks she used, but she made my sister crawl out of the coffin. It's so scary."
She said, patting her chest.
Xiao Chenyan looked at her for a moment and said, "Princess, you really gave me a big surprise."
"I received the surprise. Your Majesty, should you give me some gifts in return?"
"What gift would the princess like in return?"
Qing Wu fell into Xiao Chenyan's arms and smelled the strong evil spirit on him. A light flashed in her eyes and she hugged his waist tightly: "A moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold, so take this thousand gold as a return gift."
Xiao Chenyan remained calm even with the female ghost in his arms. He held the woman's hand on his waist, murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and his eyes were unpredictable.
There were continuous gasps all around.
Xiao Chenyan's eyes were gloomy, "Since the princess has invited me, I will certainly accompany her." He wanted to see whether she was a human or a ghost.
"I'm too frightened to move. Please carry me back to my room, Your Highness." Qing Wu smiled sweetly, "Your Highness doesn't look like he's seriously injured or dying, so you can be unable to carry me, right?
After these words were spoken, the atmosphere became even colder.
Xiao Chenyan lowered his eyes to look at her, then picked her up by the waist. The moment he picked her up, she felt an itch on her neck, as if someone was scratching her with fingernails.
Xiao Chenyan paused for a moment, his eyes growing even colder.
Li Sui wanted to speak several times, but was stopped by Situ Jing.
After Xiao Chenyan carried Qing Wu away, Xiao Sui said angrily: "Why are you holding me? You are a quack doctor, you said it is foolproof! That Yun Qingwu is definitely not a human being, what if she attacks the prince!"
Situ Jing: "What are you yelling about? Didn't you see that your prince himself is not afraid?"
"He dares to sacrifice himself, why are you worried?"
"As for that demon, quickly capture him and interrogate him."
After Situ Jing finished speaking, he chased after him. When he turned around, his face changed constantly, and he muttered to himself: "Xiao Chenyan, you are not afraid of death. Aren't you afraid of being sucked to death by the female ghost..."
"How strange! Xiao Chenyan has that string of Buddhist beads on him. If he is really a ghost, he would not have no reaction when he got close to him..."
The door of the bridal chamber was closed.
Xiao Chenyan put the person on the couch and just as he was about to get up, he felt the other person pulling him. The light in his eyes dimmed and he did not resist, allowing the other person to drag him onto the couch. He felt a weight on his body and frowned slightly.
He raised his eyes and looked coldly at the woman who was so audacious as to sit astride him.
Qing Wu seemed to be teasing her, completely unaware that she was madly testing the edge of danger.
She moved her finger down a little, tracing across the collarbone. "It's July, and Your Majesty is wearing fox fur. Are you so afraid of the cold?"
Looking up at those deep and dark eyes, she curled her lips and smiled, "Do you want me to warm you up?"
The man's hand clasped her wrist pulse point, and Qing Wu was instantly pulled into the man's arms. The man's other hand fell on the back of her neck.
It seemed as if he was caressing her skin, but in fact he was hiding murderous intent.
With the strength of a man's hands, he could easily break her neck.
"The princess now looks just like a ghost that sucks people's essence in the mountains. She is heartless."
Qing Wu smiled instead of getting angry, and laid in his arms, pressed against his neck, sniffing the evil spirit in his body, narrowing her eyes and saying, "Your Highness, don't you like it? I just helped you solve a problem."
Xiao Chenyan tilted his head and met her eyes.
"You're not trouble?"
"Your Majesty, you will know if you try it?"
Xiao Chenyan's eyes were gloomy: "I am injured, I am afraid that I will disappoint the princess."
"But I think the prince is in pretty good shape."
Qing Wu slowly moved closer, and when her delicate lips were about to touch the man's thin lips, Xiao Chenyan's hand on the back of her neck suddenly exerted a few more forces.
It doesn't hurt, but it feels very threatening.
The two looked at each other.
Qing Wu had a charming smile and a playful look in her eyes.
Xiao Chenyan's eyes were cold and gloomy: "I appreciate the princess's kindness, but it would be bad if I pass my illness on to you."
"Is that so? All right." Qing Wu showed disappointment and withdrew her hand very decisively: "Then go to bed early, Your Majesty."
After saying that, she glanced at the Buddhist beads on his wrist, sneered, and got up to go to the inner bathroom to take a bath.
Xiao Chenyan watched her back disappear, listened to the sound of water coming from the bathroom, and looked at the Buddhist beads on his wrist.
This Buddhist bead was given by a high monk. It can ward off evil spirits. If you encounter evil spirits, the Buddhist beads will become hot.
From the time this woman came into contact with him until now, this string of Buddhist beads has not reacted.
A hint of madness flashed across the man's gloomy eyes. He immediately took off the Buddhist beads and placed them on the table far away. Even the dagger that he never left was placed far away.
After removing all precautions and weapons, it all depends on what his princess, who is neither a human nor a ghost, will do next.
Hot water was already prepared in the bathroom. Qing Wu soaked in the tub, the red pen on her hand flipping between her fingers.
Suddenly, the red brush stopped moving.
A voice sounded in Qing Wu's mind, with an angry tone: "We agreed to come to the human world just to have fun during the Ghost Festival, but you stayed here without permission and even used a corpse to revive!"
"If Grandpa Fujun knew, he would definitely break my pen bones. Woohoo, you bad ghost Qingwu, you are bullying me because I am young and weak!"
"Noisy." Qing Wu threw the Judge's Pen into the water and heard a sound of bubbles. When she took the Judge's Pen out, the bristles were all broken.
The judge's pen's voice became even sharper: "You abused the pen! You big bad ghost, you are too much, I want to complain! When I return to the underworld, I will definitely break up with you!"
Qing Wu sneered, "Do you really want to break up? Then I won't let you eat the evil ghosts I catch in the future."
Judge’s Pen: “…”
"Didn't you smell the odor of that man outside? He has a sinister and deadly aura. Not only does he have a great tonic effect, but he can also increase your libido. Aren't you tempted?"
Judge's Pen: "This pen is upright and impartial. It only judges good and evil and will never be bought... slurp..."
Qing Wu: If I hadn’t heard the sound of you swallowing your saliva, I would have believed it.
Judge Pen: "Don't think that being a pen means you don't have brains. Didn't you return to the human world just to find the souls of your parents and brother from your previous life?"
"After death, all past events are gone. You are destined to be a ghost official forever. Your reincarnation in the human world is just a tribulation. Why should you cling to it?"
The judge pen kept chattering: "You're just asking for trouble by giving up your job as the second-in-command and always thinking about your wild father, wild mother, and wild brother who have only lived on the earth for a dozen years.!"
A murderous look suddenly appeared in Qing Wu's eyes, and she exerted force on the hand that was holding the judge's pen.
The judge's pen immediately said, "I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I spoke without thinking. I'm wrong!"
"But my words are not blunt, the affairs of the human world are under the jurisdiction of the emperor of the human world. There is a reason why your parents and brothers did not return to the underworld after their death during your previous life. You insist on breaking into this reason, and you will be punished sooner or later."
"Retribution?" Qing Wu sneered, closed her eyes, and said in a lazy and playful voice: "Since I am the God-destined Yin official, holding the judge's pen, I judge the cause and effect. If there is retribution, just let it come. I am not afraid of it."
The judge was silent for a moment, then said, "Then why are you helping that God of Death outside? Don't say it's for the evil spirit. The evil spirit on him will make you greedy. You don't need that little bit of money."
Qing Wu tilted her head to look outside, her wet hair twirling between her fingers: "Return a favor."
"So it's an old friend!" Judge Pen's tone changed: "Hurry up and make three rules with me. You can't take the initiative to reveal your identity. Yin and Yang are in order, and there is a clear distinction between humans and ghosts. There can't be any involvement!"
"You must promise me this."
"Okay, okay, promise."
Qing Wu's answer was extremely perfunctory. She didn't take the initiative to say anything, thinking that if Xiao Chenyan recognized her, it would not be her responsibility.
But, does Xiao Chenyan still remember her?
After all, she died too early in her previous life, at the age of twelve, and Xiao Chenyan was only seventeen at that time.
If we were in the same place, even if she hadn't died, I'm afraid we wouldn't recognize each other even if we met face to face ten years later.
Who could have imagined that the once dashing young man, the most brilliant and talented eldest grandson of the Emperor of Yong, would become the cold and ruthless man he is today in just a dozen years?
