It was indeed an illusion. Judging from the strength of that formation just now, it was clear that the person who set it up had profound inner strength.
Tinghai was also sheathing his sword; the sound he had just made was from when he used his sword to open the gate of life.
Xie Lingqin glanced at him, a hint of admiration in her eyes.
This guy, Tinghai, is truly amazing.
But where did Minglan and the others go?
There were no traces left behind, which shows that either Minglan and his group retreated cleanly or were dealt with thoroughly.
Xie Lingqin had once read in a book that illusion and seduction techniques originated from the same school, and once they were used, they would leave traces.
Yu Qingyi knows the art of seduction...
Thinking of this, Xie Lingqin immediately turned around and headed straight for Prince Qing's mansion under the moonlight, with Tinghai automatically hiding in the shadows and following closely behind.
The Prince Qing's mansion was quiet at this time, and even from a distance, one could tell that it was heavily guarded.
"Listen to the sea," Xie Lingqin called out to the darkness.
Tinghai immediately appeared. "Miss, what are your orders?"
"You, go and find the young master for me," Xie Lingqin ordered.
Tinghai looked at Xie Lingqin, but did not move immediately. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Miss Lingqin, actually no, the Crown Prince... knows illusion magic."
"What?" Xie Lingqin was taken aback, looking at him with a slightly dark expression. "Are you trying to tell me that the Crown Prince took Minglan and the others away?"
"No, no." Tinghai immediately waved his hand. "What I meant was, Miss, you can go to the Crown Prince for help."
“Your former master has recently been having a mental breakdown and is difficult to deal with. Go find Prince Yi; he’s more normal,” Xie Lingqin said truthfully.
Listen to the sea...
Under heaven, probably only Miss Lingqin would dare to speak of the Crown Prince like that.
Meanwhile, at this very moment, in the courtyard of Prince Qing's residence, Yu Qingyi...
Yu Qingyi breathed a huge sigh of relief because he had finally seen off Princess Qing. One minute he was asking her about the man from that day—of course, it was Xie Lingqin disguised as a man—and the next he was asking her about Xie Lingqin. He was almost overwhelmed.
Tilting his head, Yu Qingyi immediately smiled with a carefree and unrestrained expression, his eyes shining brightly. "You taciturn fellow, you're really loyal. You're so shrewd and resourceful. You knew I was being driven crazy by my mother and was about to collapse, so you came to my rescue."
Yuwen Yao looked at Yu Qingyi and nodded slightly. "So, how will you repay me?"
Yu Qingyi didn't react for a moment, his handsome face blank for a moment, "What repayment? With such a good relationship between us, what repayment do we need to talk about?"
"want."
Yuwen Yao's words were light, yet they brooked no argument.
Yu Qingyi raised a question mark at the corner of her eye, wondering what was wrong with the Crown Prince today, why he looked so serious?
"How do you want me to repay you?" Yu Qingyi asked curiously.
"Do not leave the Prince Qing's residence tonight."
"That's it?" Yu Qingyi immediately burst into laughter. "I thought it was something serious. Alright, alright, it's just one night without leaving the manor. Okay, alright, whatever you need to do, go ahead and do it."
"Okay." Yuwen Yao turned to leave.
However, Yu Qingyi rubbed his eyes, wondering why he seemed to have seen the taciturn man smile when he turned around.
An illusion, yes, an illusion!
He's been hanging out with the little girl lately, and he's starting to get dizzy; everything seems beautiful to him now.
Outside the Prince Qing's residence, Xie Lingqin thought for a moment, then looked at Tinghai and said, "Never mind, you should take me in quietly, and I'll speak to Prince Yi myself."
Tinghai, unaware of what had just transpired inside the Prince Qing's mansion, nodded and led Xie Lingqin over the wall, heading straight for Yu Qingyi's courtyard.
Yu Qingyi was about to take off his clothes when he saw Xie Lingqin suddenly appear in the room. His expression changed from surprise to delight. "Little girl, you've come."
"I need your help."
"You actually asked me for help? Great! Your problem is my problem, I'll definitely help." Yu Qingyi patted his chest, looking as if he were very honored.
Seeing this, Xie Lingqin's expression relaxed slightly, and she said, "I have a friend who may have been taken away by illusion magic. I know you know how to use seductive arts, so I would like to ask you for your help to come with me to find them."
Yu Qingyi was about to agree when she suddenly remembered what Yuwen Yao had just said. She slapped her forehead and could only shake her head with a bitter face, "Little girl, I can't go out."
Xie Lingqin's eyes darkened as she glanced into the inner room. "You're not keeping a mistress or indulging in pleasure, so why can't you go out?"
"I...I..." Yu Qingyi stammered.
As clever as he is, there's nothing he hasn't figured out yet.
Illusion!
The Crown Prince is skilled in illusion magic, and Xie Lingqin is currently seeking his help. Although charm magic and illusion magic are related, of course, the most direct lineage is the best.
No wonder the Crown Prince wouldn't let him leave the palace; he was deliberately preventing him from helping.
The Crown Prince wants Xie Lingqin to go find him?
“Tinghai…you…” Yu Qingyi looked at Tinghai with a puzzled expression.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince has given me to Miss Lingqin..."
"What? Really? Holy crap!"
Yu Qingyi couldn't help but be surprised.
Xie Lingqin was taken aback by Yu Qingyi's huge reaction and glanced at Tinghai.
Could it be that Tinghai has some important background? Otherwise, why would Yu Qingyi be so shocked?
"I...I...I really can't go out. I'm tired, I'm so sleepy, I want to sleep." Yu Qingyi quickly finished speaking, turned around, and was about to go into the inner room.
Xie Lingqin stepped forward, her face slightly annoyed, "Yu Qingyi, you're disloyal."
Yu Qingyi was on the verge of tears. "Little girl, I really can't go out tonight."
If I go out, it will not only be a breach of my agreement with the Crown Prince, but also...
The prince will kill me.
The Crown Prince has entrusted you with the protection of Tinghai Lake, ensuring your safety. The Crown Prince treats you differently, extremely differently.
