Chapter 607: Beautiful Fox Demon vs. Unfavored Prince (3)
Creak—the study door opened.
Lu Cha looked up.
The man in moon-white brocade clothes was about twenty-three or twenty-four years old. He had a bright face and a pair of smiling eyes. He looked honest and simple, which made people feel good about him.
This is the male protagonist No. 1, the current eldest prince Nalan Chen.
"Miss Yin, please come in..."
Nalan Chen stepped aside to make way, his face showing a hint of fear of the woman.
Lu Cha was not surprised by Nalan Chen's attitude.
The original owner entered the palace last night and directly exposed her identity as a fox demon, frightening Nalan Chen so much that he knelt down and begged for mercy.
If the original owner had not explained his purpose and repeatedly assured him that he would not hurt him, Nalan Chen would probably have cried.
But would anyone who wants to compete for the position of crown prince be so cowardly?
Lu Cha walked into the study room with a playful look and sat on the chair.
Nalan Chen closed the door tightly and looked at Lu Cha cautiously: "I wonder what Miss Yin wants to talk to me about?"
"I want to discuss the plan again with the First Prince."
Lu Cha sighed pretentiously, "Last night, I disguised myself as a palace maid and went to the Imperial Garden to seduce the Emperor, but he showed no interest in me at all. He even told me to put away these little tricks and said if I do it again, he'll kill me."
"I can no longer appear before the Emperor. The eldest prince can only be replaced by Luo Qianqian, who came with me, to complete this mission."
Luo Qianqian is the red fox who does evil in the original plot and relies on dual cultivation to increase her cultivation.
Although both were captured fox demons, Luo Qianqian lived a much better life than the original owner.
Relying on his ability to seduce people, the Taoist priest who was serving as a demon catcher felt comfortable and did not take away Luo Qianqian's demon pill.
Therefore, when Nalan Chen discovered that he could not find the original owner who was hiding, he sent Luo Qianqian to seduce the old emperor.
Even if she didn't say it, Nalan Chen would choose Luo Qianqian in the end.
She just brought the plot forward.
Lu Cha said seriously, "Although I can't become a concubine, I can continue to pretend to be a palace maid and collect important information for the eldest prince."
Nalan Chen agreed in a good-natured manner and said hesitantly:
"But... who is the master behind you?"
"Why should I send you to the palace to help me become the crown prince?"
As if thinking of something, Nalan Chen's expression changed:
"The Nalan Dynasty is most taboo about colluding with demons. Are you here to harm me?"
Looking at Nalan Chen's puzzled and vigilant expression, Lu Cha smiled.
Male protagonist No. 1 is quite good at pretending.
The demon-catching organization that took away the original owner's demon pill - Wangyou Tower, the master behind the scenes is none other than Nalan Chen.
He was worried that if he used humans to do things, they would betray him sooner or later, so he secretly built the Forget-Your-Sorrow Tower and captured some little demons to work for him.
Even if he is discovered one day, Nalan Chen can say that the demon clan is framing him.
After all, in people's minds, the demons are cunning and accustomed to deceiving others with lies.
Who could have thought that the honest and gentle eldest prince would keep demons in captivity?
In particular, Nalan Chen was cautious in his words and actions, and would disguise himself every time he contacted Wangyou Tower.
It was clearly he who sent the original owner and Luo Qianqian into the palace to assist him, but he pretended not to know them.
Ugh~
Male protagonist No. 1 is really an orange in the cellar - insidious (fresh)!
Lu Cha openly cursed Nalan Chen: "I don't know who the master is, but he must be a bad guy."
"You dug up my demon pill and threatened me to do some work. You're even more shameless than a Sichuan peppercorn."
Just ask the male protagonist No. 1, are you angry?
Nalan Chen's expression turned gloomy for a moment, but he quickly returned to his smiling face: "Just as long as you are not here to harm me."
"Since you plan to be a palace maid, have you decided who you want to be with?"
Lu Cha didn't see through Nalan Chen's intention to change the subject. Just as he was about to answer, he suddenly received a system prompt:
[Ding——The villain is detected to be in danger of death. Host, please go to the small garden to rescue him immediately.]
"I'll tell the eldest prince when I find the right person."
Seeing Lu Cha hurriedly leave after finishing speaking, the smile on Nalan Chen's face gradually disappeared. He called out the secret guards and gave a cold order:
"In the name of Wangyou Tower, inform Luo Qianqian to seduce the emperor and make him his favorite concubine."
"Send a few more people to keep an eye on Yin Lucha."
Yin Lucha had just transformed and was pure in heart, making him easier to control than Luo Qianqian.
He originally wanted to make Yin Lucha his concubine and persuade his father to make him the crown prince.
But now it seems that this snow fox is not as obedient as it appears.
Let's observe for a few days. If Yin Lucha dares to do anything secretly, we will deal with her.
—
At this time, in the small garden of the imperial palace.
Unlike the beautiful Imperial Garden, this place has been abandoned for too long, and is overgrown with weeds, and the few flowers that remain have withered and died.
Even the water in the pond was turbid and emitted a faint foul smell.
And not far from the pond.
The man in black was held down by the shoulders by two eunuchs and fell to his knees.
A few strands of hair fell on the man's forehead, adding a touch of dishevelledness to his otherwise elegant face.
Swish——
A long black whip suddenly swung over and tore Nalan Ji's sleeve.
A bloody arm could be vaguely seen inside.
"This princess came here with good intentions to bring you some cakes, but you ate them and ran away without a word. Has no one ever taught you any etiquette?!"
The girl standing in front of Nalan Ji was wearing a goose yellow palace dress. She was pretty, with one hand on her waist and the other holding a long whip.
A group of eunuchs and palace maids stood around, and no one dared to dissuade him.
Simply because, this is the most favored little princess today - Nalan Xiyan.
Logically speaking, Nalan Ji, as the second prince, is Nalan Xiyan's second brother, and she should respect him.
However, Nalan Ji was not favored by the emperor, and he was so cowardly that even the eunuchs and palace maids dared to bully him.
Not to mention Nalan Xiyan, who would find a reason to punish Nalan Ji every few days, completely treating him as a punching bag for her to beat and scold.
Nalan Ji, who was already used to being whipped, pretended to explain timidly:
"The princess ordered the eunuchs to force-feed it to me..."
Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken Chinese medicine and had his innocence taken away by that mysterious woman.
Nalan Ji lowered his eyes to hide the fierce look in his eyes, and gathered his internal energy in his palms, as if he had murderous intentions towards Nalan Xiyan.
Nalan Xiyan was completely unaware of this and looked down at Nalan Ji arrogantly:
"Whatever I say is what it is!"
"Wait a minute, you'll collapse and see how you can argue!"
Hearing this, Nalan Ji's internal energy dispersed and he pretended to be incredulous: "Princess, are you saying... you drugged the cakes?"
"I'll let you be the first person to test out the new laxative formulated by the Imperial Hospital. It's your honor!"
Nalan Xiyan raised her chin proudly and said to a eunuch beside her, "Go to the imperial kitchen and get a jar of salt."
"Today I will make this ignorant fellow suffer terribly!"
Nalan Xiyan smiled viciously, raised her hand and was about to swing the whip at Nalan Ji again, but someone suddenly clamped her wrist.
When I turned my head, I was met with a pair of charming eyes full of affection.
The elegant lotus fragrance lingering on the tip of her nose made Nalan Xiyan feel dazed for a moment.
Then, he came to his senses and glared at the enchanting woman in red:
"Let me go! Who do you think you are?! Why do you think you can grab this princess's hand?!"
Lu Cha cooperated by letting go of Nalan Xiyan and stepped back to stand in front of Nalan Ji:
"I am the Second Prince's personal maid, and I should protect my master."
"Princess, calm down. My master is not good at speaking. Please don't argue with him."
Nalan Ji: “?”
When did he have a maid?
