Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 175
Chapter 175 Eggs Need To Hatch
Yun Xiao was usually very bold, but she had just schemed against Zhou Jingyan and county princess Hui Ning. When she turned around, she was seen by others, and her heart was filled with awe. She was afraid that her plan would be discovered.
Yun Xiao quickly turned around and looked back. Unfortunately, there was nothing behind her at this moment.
The moon had just dodged into the clouds, and the sky was dark. The faint glass lamp emitted a brilliant light, flickering and blinding.
In the dark of the moon and the winds of the night, when killing and setting fire.
At this moment, Yun Xiao only thought of this sentence. She thought that her plan had been seen through, so she wanted to kill people to silence them. And Yun Xiao also remembered that Zhou Jingyan had raised a group of hidden guards. If the hidden guards really found out what they had done, it was likely that even if they had ten lives, they would not be enough to kill them.
Looking at the empty palace entrance, Yun Xiao bumped into her courage and scolded softly, “Who is it? Don’t pretend to be a ghost, quickly come out!”
As his voice fell, the scene in front of him did not change at all. Yun Xiao frowned and scolded again, but unfortunately, she still did not receive a response.
Yun Xiao frowned. Her expression was gloomy, and she was afraid in her heart. Unfortunately, no one appeared, not even the slightest corner of her robe.
Something’s wrong, some hair is floating over!
Yun Xiao’s heart trembled. She tightly raised her body, and her body tensed up. She did not dare to move at all. She felt a gloomy and cold aura blowing on her head behind her. This feeling made Yun Xiao’s heart become more and more frightened.
“You’re afraid of ghosts.”
The affirmative tone was not doubtful. It caused Yun Xiao’s brain to crash again. Only ghosts were not afraid of ghosts. If the current plot was inappropriate, Yun Xiao would probably roll her eyes. She tried her best to remain calm, but her heart was still tightly lifted up.
It was not easy for her to turn around. She turned around and saw a ebony ghost mask. Yun Xiao felt a little familiar for a moment, but she still did not remember where she had seen this ebony ghost mask before.
He opened his mouth and was about to cry out in alarm. No matter who it was, seeing such a ghost mask at night made him feel like he had encountered a ghost.
However, before the voice could be spoken, a large hand tightly covered the corner of her lips. Yun Xiao’s heart tightly twitched. She struggled intensely to obtain even more powerful restraints, and the voice that reached her mouth was swallowed.
“Don’t shout!” The person’s voice already carried a hint of coldness.
Yun Xiao secretly nodded with an embarrassed expression. She stared at the ebony ghost mask and suddenly remembered that Country of Xiyue Prince was wearing such a ghost mask in the main hall. Her heart instantly swallowed it back into her stomach.
“Fortunately, as long as it’s not a ghost.” Yun Xiao comforted herself in her heart.
“Do you want to see a good show?” The Crown Prince of West Vietnam stared at Yun Xiao’s face. He saw that her face was pale and there was a faint fear in Gu Jingwu’s calm eyes. He immediately raised his heart and felt that it was very funny. The corner of his mouth under the mask rose slightly.
Yun Xiao couldn’t help but nod her head, but she felt that something was wrong. She had never interacted with the Crown Prince of Xi Yue, so why did the Crown Prince of Xi Yue seem to know her? This is unusual.
Yun Xiao stretched out her hand to cover her mouth and pulled it away. It was not easy for her to breathe a sigh of relief. She immediately asked, “Do you know me?”
The crown prince of Xi Yue’s lips curled into a smile, “My name is Rong Xun.”
Yun Xiao thought about this name and thought about all the names in her previous life. Unfortunately, she did not expect that there was any sign of duplicating this name. “I don’t know you.”
The Crown Prince of Xi Yue graciously said, his pair of phoenix eyes staring at Yun Xiao’s eyebrows, “So what?”
Yun Xiao took a deep breath to calm herself down. Unfortunately, it was still very difficult to calm down in her heart. The corner of her mouth raised slightly, “Why did you kidnap me?” The two people he didn’t know had no interest in him, so why would Country of Xiyue Prince kidnap him?
Yun Xiao couldn’t figure it out, so in the end, she could only attribute this reason to Rong Jin, because Rong Jin and Rong Xun were direct brothers.
Perhaps it was this layer of friendship that allowed Rong Xun to recognize him.
“You’re too happy.” Rong Xun looked at Yun Xiao for a long time before saying this. A little strange appeared in Yun Xiao’s ears through the ebony ghost mask.
Yun Xiao’s expression was embarrassed. She said that she was too happy. It was better to say that he didn’t like her. He took a deep breath. Yun Xiao’s expression was embarrassed. Just as he was about to retort, his waist tightened and he was confined to Rong Xun’s waist. He tapped his toes lightly and climbed up the tree.
Yun Xiao did not dare to exclaim out loud, deeply afraid of attracting the attention of the people in the courtyard. Her face was pale, but the corner of her mouth was bitten tightly.
The two of them stood still on the tree. Only then did Yun Xiao breathe a sigh of relief. Smelling the unique scent of the man’s body, Yun Xiao’s face had a hint of blush. “Why did you help me?”
“Because of my big brother.” The voice from beneath the ebony kneeling mask carried a hint of impatience.
Yun Xiao’s heart was filled with awe, because of Rong Jin? These two had become enemies in the end, so why would Rong Xun help him because of Rong Jin? What happened to these brothers? Yun Xiao couldn’t think clearly in her heart for a moment, so she simply threw this question aside. This matter had nothing to do with her.
However, Yun Xiao suddenly remembered something. Second Brother is about to leave with Rong Jin. Second Brother’s master must also have something to do with her? If he offended them, wouldn’t his second brother be in a bad mood?
Yun Xiao kept thinking about all of this, but her heart softened because of Rong Xun’s words. Perhaps when Rong Jin returned to Country of Xiyue, she would send him off herself?
Suddenly, there was a burst of footsteps. Yun Xiao immediately regained her senses and looked at everything beside her. Her expression was a little awkward, but more excited.
The youth wearing a light yellow robe walked over with his personal guards, accompanied by Xiao Yuqi.
The two of them chatted and laughed, their expressions gentle, and they got along very smoothly.
A gust of wind blew over, sending over the two’s gossip, “You mean the woman next to Third Brother is the Yun Family’s Fourth Young Lady?”
“It should be. Before I entered the palace today, I went to the Yun manor to find Sister Yun. However, this servant reported that Sister Yun was not in the manor. Even the Yun Lai Restaurant did not see any trace of Fourth Sister Yun. Before I entered the palace, I heard some gossip saying that Sister Yun was missing.”
…
Hearing Xiao Yuqi and Zhou Jingchen’s words, Yun Xiao frowned. She never imagined that the two of them would be walking together and the topic of conversation would actually revolve around her.
Yun Xiao also wanted to pay attention to other things. Who would have thought that Rong Xun had already turned her face away?
Yun Xiao’s face was flushed red. She wanted to retort, but before she could say anything, she saw a lot of people coming out of the hall in twos and threes. There were even a lot of people walking towards her direction.
Yun Xiao’s expression was pleasantly surprised. This time, she did not need to think of a way to invite people, so those people came over.
In the blink of an eye, she discovered that Zhou Jingchen and Xiao Yuqi had already entered the palace gate.
Banxia and Qianxia, who were guarding the entrance, exchanged glances with each other. Their expressions were anxious, but they still saluted with Shi Ran. “This servant greets His Highness the Crown Prince.”
Zhou Jingyan sized up the palace and looked at the two maids in front of him. He had already recognized this person as county princess Hui Ning. He frowned, “Where is county princess? Why isn’t there a guard and palace maid guarding the courtyard?”
Pinellia’s face turned pale. The handkerchief in her hand twisted and she walked forward boldly. “Reporting to His Highness the Crown Prince, this servant does not know where the guards and palace maids have gone. The county prince and the third prince are talking in the house.”
“Talk? Is there anyone else in the room?” Zhou Jingchen looked embarrassed. After saying this, he saw the pale faces of the two maids. He frowned slightly and walked forward.
Banxia and Qianxia saw that everyone was walking into the room, and the last trace of blood on their faces disappeared. They quickly stepped forward to block the door, “Your Highness the Crown Prince, the county prince and the third prince have something to discuss.”
Zhou Jingchen’s expression became even more embarrassed. If he had just felt that there was nothing wrong with it, he could already confirm that there was something wrong with it.
Xiao Yuqi winked at the guard and immediately grabbed Ban Xia and Qianxia. Without hindering Zhou Jingchen from pushing open the door, she walked in. Seeing Zhou Jingchen’s figure, the corner of Xiao Yuqi’s mouth rose slightly, and there was a trace of something undetectable in the depths of her eyes. She raised her foot and followed.
Xiao Yuqi had just entered the palace when she saw the scene in the room through the bead curtains, and her eyes unconsciously widened, “Ah!” A shocked exclamation rang out.
This scream was very miserable, and a bird on the roof was really frightened to fly. At the same time, many guards were moving in this direction.
Zhou Jingchen’s expression was embarrassed as he called for the guards to push Xiao Yuqi out. He glanced at the messy clothes in the room, glanced at the looks of the two people in the room, and then walked out.
As soon as he walked out of the palace door, he calmly instructed the guards, “Go and invite the Eldest Princess.” The Eldest Princess was naturally the mother of County Lord Hui Ning. No matter what, she had to be notified of such a thing. This kind of thing had happened in the palace and had already disgraced the royal family. She could only think of a way to conceal it.
Zhou Jingchen looked at Xiao Yuqi with an awe-inspiring expression. Xiao Yuqi’s body trembled and she bowed respectfully, “Your Highness Prince, don’t worry, I won’t say anything nonsense.” Xiao Yuqi sneered in her heart. She was afraid that Zhou Jingchen might not be able to conceal it even if he wanted to.
Before Zhou Jingchen could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw a group of imperial guards running over. The commander of the imperial guards respectfully stepped forward and said, “Greetings, Crown Prince.”
“Get up.” Zhou Jingchen’s expression was impatient as he closed the door of the palace to cover up the spring light in the room.
Moreover, Yun Xiao, a gust of cold wind blew over. She was already wearing very little clothes and was on a tree. There was nothing that could block the wind. Her complexion was ashen and she felt her nose itching. She wanted to sneeze.
Below was Zhou Jingchen, Xiao Yuqi, and quite a few imperial guards. If there was a single movement of their own, it would attract the suspicions of those people. They would never be able to hide anymore, but their noses were really itchy.
Just as Yun Xiao was hesitating to the left and right, not knowing what to do, her nose was pinched by a pair of large hands. The magnetic and pleasant male voice seemed to resound in her ears, “Endure!”
Yun Xiao’s expression was embarrassed, and her nose itched impatiently. However, she was pinched by someone. This feeling was like rolling on a pot of oil. It was not uncomfortable. Yun Xiao’s eyes were suffocating with tears, but it was really as Rong Xun had said. She could not make any movement.
However, no matter how she looked at this posture, she felt embarrassed. Yun Xiao went to push Rong Xun. She would rather pinch herself than Rong Xun. She was afraid that if she were to be pinched down again, her nose would be torn off, and she would no longer have the slightest interest in watching the show.
The broad cloak landed on her shoulders. Yun Xiao felt soft in her heart and was at a loss for what to do. However, if she pushed the cloak away, Yun Xiao was also unwilling, because it was too cold.
Suddenly, Yun Xiao felt something strange move on her waist. She originally didn’t want to pay attention to it, but that movement was getting bigger and bigger. If she didn’t deal with it, she was afraid that she would be disturbed and fall from the tree.
Yun Xiao fumbled around her waist for a moment. Finally, she found a purse and opened it. Under the faint glass light, Yun Xiao saw a snake egg the size of a pigeon egg lying in the purse. There were cracks on the snake egg.
She looked embarrassed, thinking that she had crushed the egg. This was a matter of her own life!
“It’s about to hatch.”
