Instantly, Black Owl's long black hair cascaded down, spreading like ink and covering half the bed.
The pale moonlight and starlight outside the window shone on his handsome, ethereal face, which also possessed a touch of aloofness and frost, making his features even more captivating and his appearance stunning.
Ji Fengming was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself:
I wonder what Xiao Chen's mother was thinking?
Why give birth to such a handsome son when it's not a girl?
Hei Xiao felt Ji Fengming, who had been making a ruckus on his body, suddenly quiet down. He turned his face to look back at Ji Fengming and saw that under the starlight, the boy's bright eyes were like the two brightest stars in the night sky.
But in the boy's eyes, he saw himself with disheveled hair and no image whatsoever.
Black Owl irritably pushed him away and angrily tied his hair back: "When I'm with you, I'll lose all my composure sooner or later. Can't you be serious for once?"
"What do you need that thing for?" Ji Fengming crossed his hands behind his head, lay back down, and crossed his legs, saying, "In this life, one should keep good and evil in one's heart and be at ease. There's no point in being bound by fame and reputation. It's better to be without it."
I've heard you say that before.
Black Owl glanced at Ji Fengming indifferently, recalling the boy who often appeared in his hallucinations. The boy's words and actions were strikingly similar to Ji Fengming's.
After tying his hair back up, Hei Xiao was about to lie down again when he suddenly saw a figure sneaking out from the side courtyard of the Nanli Prince's Mansion. He quickly kicked Ji Fengming and whispered, "There's movement."
Ji Fengming immediately stood up, looked up at the window, and saw the figure: "There is indeed something wrong with the Nanli Prince's Mansion. Let's go, follow them!"
Black Owl nodded, and he and Ji Fengming simultaneously took out masked masks and put them on. The two of them jumped out of the window and stealthily followed the man at a distance.
The masked man in black had a clear objective: he went straight into the palace and entered the Empress Dowager's bedroom.
I feel that our cultivation levels are very similar.
Ji Fengming and Hei Xiao were afraid of being discovered, so they didn't dare to get too close and didn't know what the man did or said after entering the Empress Dowager's palace.
Half an hour later, as dawn was breaking, the masked man in black finally left Cining Palace and returned to the Nanli Prince's residence.
"Could this be the Empress Dowager's old flame?" Ji Fengming was completely baffled and started talking nonsense again.
Black Owl: "..."
You're going to drive the Empress Dowager to her death!
Black Owl pondered for a moment and said, "Back then, the late emperor originally intended for the prince to be the crown prince, but when he was about to pass away, he changed his mind in a strange way and passed the throne to the current emperor, while leaving the prince a life-saving edict."
Over the years, the prince and I have analyzed this more than once: the late emperor must have been under some kind of coercion to do so.
However, over the years, we have found no trace of any forces colluding with the Empress Dowager, so this matter has remained uninvestigated.
"That can't be right. If the Empress Dowager had colluded with Nanli back then, why would my brother-in-law have destroyed Nanli?" Ji Fengming shook his head, feeling that this speculation was unreliable.
Black Owl said, "The destruction of Nanli back then was an accident. It was because a garrison general of Nanli's border city had a conflict with one of the prince's generals. The garrison general killed the prince's men, and the Nanli national teacher, relying on his own abilities, refused to hand over the murderer."
The prince was extremely protective of his own, and in a fit of rage, he destroyed Nanli.
As you know, after the prisoners of war from Nanli entered the capital, the emperor not only bestowed the title of king upon the emperor of Nanli, but also granted them a separate residence.
Over the years, she has even allowed them to oppose the prince, and has placed the treacherous Li Jiao into the prince's residence as a concubine.
