Chapter 43 - Origin (2)

 Zhao Yujiao leaned over to pick up the jade plate and looked at it carefully. This jade plaque is translucent and can be seen as an extraordinary product. A delicate "Yan" character is engraved on the lower right side of the jade plaque. When you turn it over, you will see a big "Pei" character. Zhao Yujiao suddenly thought that after the death of the old Prince Qing, there was only one prince left in the Qing Palace, Pei Xiuyan. In order to save the Qing Palace, Pei Xiuyan tried his best to please the crown prince, Pei Ye, and served him at his side. Ye Jin once said that the young Qing Prince Pei Xiuyan not only knows current affairs but also knows how to advance and retreat. He will definitely be able to revive the Qing Palace in the future! She squatted down and took a closer look at the face of the unconscious soldier. She found that he had handsome features and delicate skin, unlike a soldier who was exposed to the wind and sun all year round. He was just tal...

Chapter 42 - Origin (1)

 ※ Thirteen years ago, late autumn, Dafeng border ※ This is the territory of Dafeng, and eighty miles ahead is Beirong. Because there are often battles here, there is no one in front and behind, and there are dense trees on both sides. The world is quiet. A young boy wrapped in a red fur coat, carrying a small crossbow on his back, and a young boy dressed in blue, dressed in a proper manner, walked on this wild road in the suburbs. The two walked, one in front and one behind. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, the young boy in blue looked up at the sky and said with some worry, "Ayan, I'm scared; let's go back." The voice was a soft and pleasant girl's voice, and the little face was pink and carved, obviously a girl. The young boy in red took off the crossbow on his back, stroking it while saying: "Sister Yujiao, it's rare for us to run out once. I will never go back if I can't catch prey. I want to prove to that little wooden boy that I am not a l...

Chapter 41 - Little Girl

 Pei Xiuyan said in a low voice, "Above ten thousand people?" What's the point of being above ten thousand people as long as you are still below one person? It still depends on the mood of the person on the dragon throne. He let go of Ye Chuyan, held her face, stared into her eyes seriously, and asked, "Ayan, you love me, right?" Ye Chuyan restrained herself from dodging Pei Xiuyan's eyes, and suddenly the image of Wu Mu calling her "Ah Yan" with a smile flashed in her mind. Her eyes were instantly filled with tenderness and smiles, and her voice was particularly emotional. "Yes, I found that I really love you." Wu Mu, when I was in the abyss, why did I think of you all the time? I'm sorry; I will never be able to respond to you in this life, nor can I tell you those three words. When I drag Pei Xiuyan into hell, I am willing to suffer all the hardships in hell in exchange for your life to be perfect. Ye Chuyan's narrow and heroic...

Chapter 40 - Fortunately

 Pei Xiuyan had never lost his temper with Zhao Yujiao. His sudden scolding made Zhao Yujiao tremble, and her lips turned pale. She lowered her head timidly. "Prince... I'm sorry... Did I say something wrong... I... I..." While speaking, her tears were like beads that had broken off the string. Her eyes were instantly covered with a layer of mist. She was like a frightened deer, which made people feel pity. Pei Xiuyan realised that he had just scolded Zhao Yujiao because he was angry that she mentioned Ye Chuyan. For a moment, he regretted it and was irritated. He took a breath and softened his face and voice. "Jiaojiao, be obedient and stop crying. I was wrong just now. I didn't sleep all night, and there were many things going on in the palace yesterday. I'm really in a bad mood today." Zhao Yujiao secretly glanced at Pei Xiuyan while crying. Seeing that he had regained his gentleness towards her in the past, she stopped crying with sobs. She knew that...

Chapter 39 - Shut Up

 Yan Xue saw Pei Xiuyan coming out of Yunqian Palace with dark eyes and coldness all over his body. He wanted to ask but didn't dare, so he could only follow him silently. The leader of the Imperial Guards was looking for Pei Xiuyan. When he met him on the road, he went up to report: "Your Majesty, the maid who led the princess to Xuanyou Palace was found in a well next to the Imperial Garden. She has been dead for a long time." He saw Pei Xiuyan purse his lips and say nothing; his eyebrows and eyes were cold, thinking that he was unhappy with his incompetence. He had to bite the bullet and continue: "Your Majesty, the mysterious man that Master Wu saw seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. Please rest assured, your Majesty, I will definitely find out the clues as soon as possible." Pei Xiuyan looked up at the leader and suddenly felt that all this was extremely ironic. Now he could probably guess that this matter should have been planned by Na Sheng, who h...

Chapter 38 - Sleepless

 Pei Xiuyan was at a loss for a moment, so he could only say faintly, "It's okay, I'll take you back to the mansion. Bai Zhi is still waiting for you in the mansion." Ye Chuyan took the opportunity to look around and took note of this place, thinking that she must come here to find out if she has the chance one day. After the three returned to the mansion, Bai Zhi had been waiting in Jianjia Garden for a long time. Seeing that Ye Chuyan was safe and sound, she cried with joy. Pei Xiuyan took Yan Xue to the palace again to investigate the matter of Xuanyou Palace. Bai Zhi blamed herself a little, "Princess, I... I have caused trouble for you again..." Ye Chuyan patted her head and said, "It's okay, it's a false alarm; I'm tired." Seeing that Ye Chuyan looked tired, Bai Zhi blamed herself while preparing a fragrant bath for her. After Ye Chuyan packed up, she lay on the bed, unable to calm down. She couldn't let anyone know about her ...

Chapter 37 - Explanation

 Ye Chuyan woke up leisurely, and what she saw was Pei Xiuyan's slightly tired face. "Are you awake?" The concern in his tone made Ye Chuyan feel a little uncomfortable. She looked around and asked, "Is this the Imperial Medical Office?" Pei Xiuyan nodded. "The Imperial Doctor said you were just unconscious, and there was nothing serious. You went out to find Bai Zhi; why did you faint in Xuanyou Palace?" Ye Chuyan didn't know what happened after she fainted and was afraid of saying something wrong that would implicate Wu Mu, so she only vaguely said: "The maid took me to the vicinity of Xuanyou Palace, and I was knocked unconscious without any preparation." Pei Xiuyan pursed his lips and thought. Bai Zhi had been found, while Ye Chuyan was unconscious just now. When Bai Zhi went to get the wine, a wild cat suddenly ran out and scratched her clothes. She didn't dare to wear ragged clothes to serve at the palace banquet, so she found a...

Chapter 36 - It's Great

 Ye Chuyan's consciousness and clarity gradually recovered. After she saw Wu Mu feeding her the blood of her heart, she fainted before she could speak. Suddenly, there was a neat and heavy sound of footsteps outside, accompanied by the friction of armor. Wu Mu pricked up his ears and sneered twice. It was a whole team of imperial guards. The person who drugged her was really well planned, and it was calculated that the imperial guards would patrol here at this time. He had nowhere to escape at this time. He carefully wiped the blood off the hairpin, gently inserted it into Ye Chuyan's bun, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and smoothed her slightly messy dress. After doing all this, he walked quickly to the outside of the main hall, pulled out a short knife from the jade belt around his waist, and slashed it fiercely at the bleeding position on his heart. His clothes were stained with blood. He inserted the short knife into the jade belt and sat on the column of the...

Chapter 35 - Cold Palace

 She has been in hell for a long time and has forgotten how to be sad. She won't be sad, and she will live well. Therefore, only in this way can Pei Xiuyan be tied to the pillar of shame. Whenever others despise her, they will mention her other identity, Princess Qing! Today's incident made her see Pei Xiuyan's coldness again. How could she be so blind as to fall in love with Pei Xiuyan? Cold-hearted people are always ruthless. Pei Xiuyan clenched his fists, and after a long time, he slowly loosened them and began to drink crazily. The maid who poured wine for Pei Xiuyan accidentally spilled the wine on Ye Chuyan's skirt and knelt down hurriedly and said, "Princess, spare me..." Ye Chuyan glanced at the maid who poured wine and asked, "Where is my personal maid?" It was Bai Zhi who had been serving her just now. I don't know when Bai Zhi disappeared. The maid trembled and said, "Princess, your personal maid just went to get wine and contradi...

Chapter 34 - Sword Dance

 Ye Chuyan bowed her head and remained silent. It is not impossible for a minister to dance, but this is a palace banquet to entertain foreign envoys, and everything should be decided by Pei Ye. Pei Ye played with the wine cup in his hand, pursed his lips, and said nothing; the tassels blocked his face so that people could not see his emotions. He was not the Queen Mother's biological son. In order to maintain the status of the Ye family, the Queen Mother repeatedly expressed her desire to make Ye Chuyan the queen when he first ascended the throne. She also took him to the Ye Mansion to see Ye Chuyan. He was still young when he ascended the throne, and the Queen Mother had controlled the government for many years on the pretext of assisting the government. He hated the people of the Ye family, so how could he let the Queen Mother do what she wanted? On the day he went to the Ye Mansion, he brought Pei Xiuyan with him, asked Pei Xiuyan to wear Ye Chuyan's favourite red dress, an...
