He was the one who made a sudden move. Since the world was in a state of upheaval and the people were trying to track down the location of the Phoenixis Maiden, if Gu Yinuo really lived in his residence, he would definitely be discovered.
After all, the guardian of the Phoenix was the Holy Maiden, and it was unknown how many people knew of Gu Yinuo.
”Let's go!” Let's have Mu Sheng keep an eye on him for a while. We'll come exchange for him in the evening! ”
Zi Li intimately held Gu Yi's hand on his left and right, pulling them upstairs.
After a few months of interaction, the feelings between the ladies were like the rising tides of the sea, quickly increasing, warming up like sisters.
At noon, the imperial physician was hanging in the air with a scorching heat as he roasted the earth.
The capital, which should have been bustling with noise and excitement, was now deathly still. After the last night's ordeal, the common people were exhausted but terrified, afraid that the werewolves would attack again.
Blood could be seen everywhere on the streets, and under the rays of the sun, it emitted a stench that stung the nose.
There were soldiers everywhere, carrying water and washing the streets under the scorching sun.
After Mo Nanxuan returned to the palace, he gave an order to appease the relatives of those who were killed by the werewolf and gave them an equal amount of silver.
After which, another decree was issued, sealing the city in place. Only those who entered the city were allowed in, not allowed out.
The Chen Mansion on the west side of the capital city had green mountains and flowing water, strange rocks and rocks, streams and pavilions, and it had a unique flavor to it in this scorching summer's time.
Dongfang Chen stood in the Lotus Blossom House and looked at the fish swimming around in the water.
”Your Highness, the weather has been very hot recently. Chenqie has cooked some green bean porridge, which will cool down the summer. It can't get any better in the summer.”
Behind him, Ye Luoli scooped up a bowl of green bean porridge and walked towards him.
Just as he walked behind her, Dongfang Chen suddenly turned around and carried her in his arms:
”Why? Why is she not Phoenixis Maiden? ”
Unable to guard against being carried, Ye Luoli's mind was shaken, his brows knitted slightly as he climbed up a bit, and blankly stood in place.
”All these years, I have been waiting for her to grow up, hoping that she would be that person. Now, what do you want me to do? ”
Dongfang Chen laid his body on her shoulder, and started to lightly tremble.
Soon after, a warm bead drop fell onto Ye Luoli's neck. His heart trembled slightly, as he handed the bowl to maidservant and indicated for them to push it down.
maidservant took the bowl, bowed to them, and tactfully left.
At this point, Dongfang Chen cried even more shamelessly. Ye Luoli didn't say a single word as he quietly accompanied her.
However, it was as if she had eaten a fly in her heart. She felt extremely uncomfortable, and her expression turned grave. At the next moment, tears silently flowed down her face.
She had heard about Shangguan Jingyan's matter. It was said that she was not a Phoenixis Maiden Cultivator, perhaps because of this reason!
After all, Shangguan Jingyan was the destined empress. Among the girls that were born that year, the possibility of her being the one to obtain the princess's position was extremely high.
Now that the world didn't know that she was the Phoenixis Maiden and that her highness was ambitious, the so-called love between them would be worth a lot.
”Your Highness, is princess still alright?”
After knowing the truth, the arrogant woman could not accept the truth!
”Right, I need to find Jing Yan.”
Hearing her words, Dongfang Chen felt as if he had just awoken from a dream, fiercely pushing her away as he hastily ran for the door.
Looking at his empty hands, Ye Luoli forced a smile, and tears streamed down his face, blurring his vision. Whoosh.
He was already used to it, but why was his heart still in such pain?
Suddenly, her abdomen felt a sharp pain, as if a knife was twisting around it. The pain was so painful that she couldn't help but feel sad. Sweat poured down her body, wetting her clothes. Her eyes darkened, and she fainted magnificently on the ground.
The moonlight climbed onto the treetops, and only then did Bai Zhixi slowly wake up. It was a pitch black night, and there seemed to be a thick smell of blood mixed in the air.
The bedding was ice-cold, so it was obvious that Jun Mohan had already gotten up.
”Zi Li, it's so dark, why didn't you light the lamp...”
Bai Zhixi called out in a low voice, but what responded to her was only endless darkness and indifference.
Doubt was plastered on his face as he hurriedly put on his clothes and walked out the door.
”Jun Mohan, I know it's you. Do you think that you can hide it from others just by coming here to ”get rid of the golden cicada”? I'm telling you, I won't let go of Bai Zhixi. ”
The moment Bai Zhixi opened the door, he heard Dongfang Chen's voice come out from the first floor. The guests who had awakened their Love Sea all laid down on the buildings to observe his dignity as the crown prince of a country.
Looking down, he saw Dongfang Chen sitting in the hall, her face flushed red, obviously drunk.
”Miss, Crown Prince came here this afternoon to inquire about your whereabouts. Sixth Aunt said she didn't know the person he was talking about, so he didn't say a word and just sat there drinking all afternoon. We've been talking about waiting for you and the Prince Mo to appear. ”This servant wonders, does he know …”
Jin Se did not explain his identity, but Bai Zhixi was also well aware of it.
