"I can only do my best. As for whether I can wake King Mo up, I can't guarantee it." Abbot Xuankong replied.
"Thank you, Abbot. Please let me know if you need anything. Please save the prince at all costs." Jing Yan'er said worriedly.
"Please ask Princess Mo to prepare nine lamps, a peach wood sword, and yellow paper. I am going to perform a ritual for Prince Mo. Everyone else please leave. No one is allowed to disturb me before I come out. It is taboo to interrupt a ritual. If interrupted, Prince Mo will be powerless to save the situation." Abbot Xuankong instructed.
"Come here, get ready immediately!" Jing Yaner ordered.
"Yes." The housekeeper went to do it immediately.
After a while, the housekeeper found the things needed: "Abbot, everything is here."
"Okay, thank you." Abbot Xuankong took it immediately and then set up a formation with nine lamps.
Jing Yaner called all the guards and secret guards in the mansion and said, "Everyone, listen carefully. No one is allowed to disturb Abbot Xuankong until he leaves the house. Anyone who breaks in will be executed on the spot. No matter what happens, no one can disturb the abbot from saving the prince!"
"Yes." The secret guards and bodyguards surrounded the entire room.
Not to mention humans, even a fly can't fly in.
Jing Yan'er was also waiting outside. At this moment, she just hoped that Prince Mo would wake up soon.
Time passed little by little, and the atmosphere in the entire Prince Mo's Mansion was very solemn. No one dared to disturb them, and they all waited outside the courtyard so that Abbot Xuankong could give orders at any time.
It’s late at night, at the Ye family.
Ye Xingchen was sleeping in the house when he suddenly heard a low groan from outside the yard. Ye Xingchen suddenly opened his eyes and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
She guessed that Cang Boyi would definitely come to find her at night, so she deliberately set up a formation in the yard just to deal with this guy.
As a result, he really fell into the trap.
Cang Boyi waited until dark and came to find Ye Xingchen, but as soon as he climbed over the wall, he was hit by an unknown thing in the yard, and he frowned in pain.
Cang Boyi saw something like a stone pillar beside him in the bright moonlight, and his face turned cold: "When did Xingchen's yard have this thing?"
Cang Boyi was just about to go to the house, but suddenly several things in front of him started spinning, and he immediately became alert.
It was the middle of the night now, Xingchen must have fallen asleep. Cang Boyi didn't want to wake her up, so he didn't use any force.
He tried several times but failed to get out of those strange things, and immediately noticed something was wrong.
"Ajiu?"
Ajiu on the wall then appeared: "Regent, I want to help you very much. But Miss Ye ordered me not to help, otherwise she will never let me follow him again, so you are on your own."
Cang Boyi suddenly realized: "It seems that I have to break the formation before I can see the stars."
Cang Boyi didn't complain or get angry, he just continued to wander around the yard.
Su Ruoan and the other two, who lived in a courtyard separated from Ye Xingchen by a wall, naturally guessed that the Regent would come tonight. At this moment, the three of them were lying on the wall and watching with frowns on their faces.
"The Regent is in a miserable state. Why don't we help him?" Su Ruoan suggested.
"If we help, Ye Xingchen will definitely drive us out?" Feng Yunmu frowned.
"Then we'll wait. If the Regent still can't get out before dawn, we'll help. If he is driven out, we can just go back to the Regent's Palace." Su Ruoan curled his lips.
"I agree." Zhan Bai agreed.
"Then you guys continue to lie down. I'm going back. I can't be kicked out before I figure out how Ye Xingchen detoxified the Regent." Feng Yunmu said and slipped away.
"This lackey." Su Ruoan glared at the back of his head fiercely.
The two of them were lying there until dawn.
Originally, Cang Boyi also knew some formations, but no matter how he tried, it was useless and it dragged on until dawn.
"Zhan Bai, let's help the Regent." Su Ruoan suggested.
"good."
But before the two of them could take action, Cang Boyi had already passed the formation and arrived outside Ye Xingchen's door.
Su Ruoan was full of admiration: "As expected of our regent, even though it took a lot of time, it still passed."
"The Regent is indeed powerful." Zhan Bai agreed.
The so-called regent pushed the door open and walked in, tiptoeing like a thief. As a result, he saw Ye Xingchen sitting by the window in the room.
Cang Boyi's mouth twitched: "Are you awake?"
Ye Xingchen looked at him coldly: "I fell asleep, but was woken up by someone."
Cang Boyi frowned: "So, you knew that I have been wandering around in the yard?"
"Um."
Cang Boyi now wished he could dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it. He was so embarrassed that Xingchen saw him in such a shameful state.
"You are so cruel. You let me wander around the yard for half the night." Cang Boyi's voice sounded helpless and submissive.
"Does the Regent have the heart to let me fend for myself in the dungeon?" Ye Xingchen asked back.
"How can you let it fend for itself? I was just angry at that time and never meant to treat you badly. I have already asked people to prepare food, drink and clothes." Cang Boyi retorted.
"So what?" Ye Xingchen's voice became a little colder.
Cang Boyi knew she was still angry, so he came over and said, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have been so jealous, and I shouldn't have let anyone kidnap you. It's all my fault.
Didn't you also lock me up? In the end, I did something wrong and was inconsiderate. I apologize to you and will never do it again."
Ye Xingchen didn't even raise his eyelids: "If I kill the Regent, will it be useful to apologize to you?"
The next moment, Cang Boyi pulled out a dagger and said, "As long as you can calm down, I will let you do whatever you want with me."
Ye Xingchen took the dagger: "Do you think I don't dare?"
"You have locked me up, so why shouldn't I dare?" Cang Boyi smiled bitterly.
"Then the Regent is trying to impress me by torturing me?" Ye Xingchen asked back.
"Of course not. I am in the wrong. You can do whatever you want. This is the first time I like someone. I like you so much that I can't wait to see you anytime.
When I can't see you for a while, I miss you. When I walk on the street and see new gadgets, I always want to buy them for you. When I eat delicious food, I always want you to taste it.
I wish I could give you all the good things in this world, but I am afraid of scaring you, so I have been restraining myself.
I have been poisoned and will not live long, so I have never told you my feelings for fear of delaying you.
It was not until you helped me remove the poison from my body that I felt I was qualified to confess my love to you.
This king originally wanted to express his feelings to you after the sacrificial ceremony, but when he saw you with Su Qianmian and accepting the sugar man he made, this king got angry, jealous, and even lost his mind.
This prince does not know what to do when he likes someone, and no one has told him these things. This prince just does not know how to express his love.
Xingchen, can you give me a chance? I promise to obey you in everything from now on and never go too far like this again."
