For example, now, Jiuxi is in the largest Zuihonglou in Kyoto, and opposite her sits a man in black gorgeous clothes. The man's facial features are deep and handsome as if carved by a knife or an axe. Although he looks at the woman performing on the stage from time to time, there is nothing in his eyes except calmness.
Jiuxi naturally recognized that this was the fourth prince of the dynasty, who was a brother of the current monarch.
The Fourth Prince drank another glass of strong liquor, pointed at the half-dressed woman on the stage, and deliberately raised a smile on his face. He said, "Jiuxi, is there any woman you like?"
Originally, it would be fine if some high-ranking officials with lower positions than the Imperial Master came to flatter her, but this Fourth Prince is the younger brother of the current emperor... and he bribed her like this... Could it be that he was the one who poisoned the Imperial Master?
Jiuxi was startled, a hint of drunkenness trickling down his pretty face. He yawned and said, "The girl in Zuihonglou isn't very pretty. I... I don't like her. I like... pure women."
A hint of anger appeared in the Fourth Prince's dark eyes. He frowned and said, "There are so many women, but there's no one you like?"
Jiuxi nodded indifferently, put one hand on the servant beside him, and said, "I'm a little sleepy, take me back."
Although the Fourth Prince appeared calm on the surface, his eyes were full of conspiracy and intrigue. She really disliked this man's eyes.
The servant nodded repeatedly, put the cloak beside him on Jiuxi, and bent slightly to help Jiuxi out of Zuihonglou. Outside the building, there were already waiting sedan chair bearers. Kyoto was already very cold in this season. Even the wintersweet flowers in the corner of the wall were bent by the snow. Blown by the cold wind with the smell of snow, her mind became clearer. Looking at the sedan chair bearers with unfamiliar faces, she caught a glimpse of the curve of the Fourth Prince's mouth. She was drunk and swayed from side to side, but she refused to go to the sedan chair. But this servant was a fool. He grabbed Jiuxi's sleeve and said, "My lord, come this way!"
She was helped into the sedan chair in a confused manner. Although there was a small heater and some food inside, she was clear that the man had murderous intentions towards her. She did not feel at ease sitting in the sedan chair. She had replaced the National Master and was placed in the center of public attention. Her purpose was to find out the person who had harmed the National Master, but the National Master did not care about it at all.
When the sedan chair swayed and turned out of the Fourth Prince's sight, the Fourth Prince Feng Linyuan's eyes darkened and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Jiuxi held the small heater in her arms and occasionally lifted the curtain of the sedan chair to look outside. Sure enough, the sedan bearers did not take her to the Imperial Master's residence, but instead sent her to a gloomy place. She gently made a gesture with her hands hidden under her wide sleeves, and the sedan bearers with cold eyes trembled suddenly, then changed the direction of the road and rushed to the Imperial Master's residence in a mighty manner.
The speed is so fast that it feels like flying in the sky.
After Jiuxi left, the shadow demon Yechen also changed direction and flew towards a mansion in the human world.
After taking the Fire Flower, Ming Ye felt as if his entire body was on fire, even his bones were being roasted crispy by the flames. However, apart from a little sweat seeping out of his face, there was no other pain. The pain in his body was not even one ten-thousandth of what she had caused him. But as time passed, his body slowly warmed up. He took a sip of cold tea and muttered, "Seven more days."
I'll let you jump around for another seven days.
Ye Chen quickly arrived at the mansion and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, that Fourth Prince...set a trap for Hades..."
Mingye's words were filled with a hint of anger, and even the hand holding the teacup became cold and hard. He said, "Kill him."
"yes."
