"Everything! She was afraid to tell her father, but she told me everything! She told me to keep it a secret. This silly girl is too kind. "

"Weren't you unconscious? When did she tell you? "

"Before you came! She told me when she came to see me. How do you explain that? What exactly happened to you in the Underground Palace? "

Jing Jing's face revealed a trace of fear, everything that happened in the underground palace was just like a nightmare! Even though he was only thinking about it now, there was still some lingering fear in his heart.

Seeing her in a daze, Li Yue urged, "So what?"

Jingjing sighed and said, "Do you really want to know what happened in the underground palace?"

Li Yue glared at her, his face filled with displeasure. "Do you really need me to explain everything again?"

From the displeased expression on his face, it was obvious that he was saying, "Stop with the nonsense."

Jingjing knew that Li Yue really did want to know.

If it was her, she wanted to know too.

She was originally just the daughter of a general who knew a bit of kung fu.

However, he had suddenly used his palm to strike the martial arts practitioner, Glu, to the point where he had died on the spot.

In the entire Central Plains, there were probably not many people who could fight against such a profound martial arts technique and inner strength.

To be able to cultivate such a martial arts in such a short amount of time, a person would be curious.

However, there had been too many things happening recently and no one had the time to pay attention to it.

Only Li Yue woke up and wanted to know what happened to Jingjing.

"In the underground palace, I encountered some fortuitous encounters." Jingjing took a deep breath, the expression on her face didn't look good.

Because she didn't want to think about what had happened.

Seeing her expression, Li Yue couldn't bear to continue asking.

Because she knew that it was definitely not a pleasant memory.

But he had to know.

This was because he wanted to protect Jingjing.

He couldn't let others know first, and even more so, he couldn't let the bad guys know first.

If he knew, he would also know how to protect Jingjing, and how to protect this secret.

It was just like the story of Jingjing's surrender of Abi.

Now, he could think of a way as well.

But if others knew about it, they might try to harm Jingjing.

Seize the martial arts that she suddenly obtained.

Perhaps with Jingjing's current martial arts skills, it would be very difficult for anyone to hurt her.

But after so long of observation.

She knew that this woman had a fatal weakness.

That was, she was too kind.

He didn't know how to guard against others and didn't know how to play the Grand Moon game. He only knew how to be a little smart.

Therefore, Li Yue must first find out about the secret and protect Jingjing.

Jingjing looked at his serious face and said, "Fine, since you want to know, agree to a condition of mine, and I'll tell you!"

"What condition?" Li Yue frowned, he was going to get angry.

Had he spoiled this woman?

Why did she always bargain on everything?

In addition, she seemed to have become even more arrogant after coming out of the underground palace.

No, it should be said that there was no other departure in his eyes.

He originally did not like the Xiahou Family holding onto the authority they had to look down on others.

Jing Jing looked at him seriously, her big eyes blinking, she said in a serious tone: "When I just came in, the servant said you didn't want to drink the medicine, but after you drink the medicine, I'll tell you!"

"Drink, drink the medicine?" Li Yue thought that she would mention something excessive, but he didn't expect that he was just letting his drink the medicine.

Jingjing nodded, "Yes."

Li Yue retracted his expression, looked at Jingjing, and seriously said, "That medicine is very bitter, it's hard to drink!"

Jing Jing frowned, she was like a serious teacher criticizing a mischievous child, "Bitter mouth medicine, if you don't drink it, how can your wound heal?"

She frowned in thought for a moment and said, "So you're afraid of suffering. You don't have to drink it."

Li Yue's rare eyes brightened as he looked at Jingjing.

Jing Jing said with a serious face, "If you don't drink, I won't tell you about the underground palace."

At first, Li Yue's bright eyes dimmed, but soon they were covered with a layer of chilliness.

Jingjing stared back at him with unyielding eyes.

In her heart, she was already unrivalled, so why would she be afraid of leaving.

"Alright!"

In the end, Li Yue was defeated by this battle of gazes, so he ordered, "Bring the medicine!"

Those who had been waiting outside for a long time were used to serving in front of Li Yue.

Hearing Li Yue's instructions, he hurriedly walked in, passed the warm medicine to his, and gave his a look of admiration. He then said in a low voice, "Princess Wang has a way!"

Li Yue glared at the two of them, took the black medicinal juice from that night, raised his head, and drank it all in one gulp as if he had made a huge decision. He rubbed his mouth after drinking it and looked at Jingjing, "Speak!"

Jingjing was shocked.

Just as he walked to the door, he heard a servant beside Li Yue hurriedly tell him that Li Yue wouldn't take any medicine, so what?

He thought it was going to be difficult, but he drank it all in one gulp.

How much do you want to know about the underground palace?

Jing Jing waved her hand and retreated from the servants serving her.

The servants quickly retreated, and for a moment, only Li Yue and Jingjing were left in the room.

Jingjing sat beside Li Yue and wiped off her sweat, seemingly not wanting to say anything.

Li Yue waited for a while. Seeing that he still hadn't said anything, she impatiently waved away Jingjing's hand and said, "Quickly tell me."

The tone and voice were a bit loud, and after pulling the wound close for a moment, he frowned.

He was someone who could endure pain. Back then, when he was injured, he did not even frown. Right now, it was probably really painful.

Jing Jing said, "Ai, you are really …"

Seeing that Li Yue was really unhappy, he said, "Alright, I'll tell you!"

Li Yue said, "Speak!"

Jingjing said, "The underground palace is very scary, very dangerous, and there are monsters too!"

"And then?" Li Yue asked unhappily. This woman was simply spouting nonsense.

How many people in the Western Regions did not know of these words?

"Then... I went into the underground palace and ran into these scary and dangerous monsters, they scared me to death "

At this point, Jingjing's face really turned pale.

After waiting for a while, Li Yue no longer had any intention of continuing. He could not help but ask, "Is that it?"

"Just like that …"

"You …" Li Yue pointed at Jingjing and said, "You went back on your word!"

"When did I break my promise?"

Jingjing looked at Li Yue boldly and confidently, "I already said, once you drink the medicine, I'll tell you. But, I didn't say when or how much I'll tell you right?"

"You …" Li Yue's expression changed. If it wasn't for his calming power, he would have been angered to the point of bleeding again by now.

However, before he could finish his words, someone knocked on the door.

"Who?" Li Yue loudly questioned the reckless person at the door.

Didn't the servants who just left know that there was no need for someone to disturb them at this time?

"The imperial edict has arrived!" A sharp voice interrupted Li Yue's angry words!

"Imperial decree?" Jing Jing looked at Li Yue in confusion.

Li Yue was also puzzled and said, "Father Wang has brought the decree. Go and receive it."

Jing Jing could only stand up, and Li Yue also sat up slightly. He shouted towards the outside, "Go in!"

The door opened, and a servant came in with a eunuch. As soon as they entered, he said to Li Yue and Jing Jing, "The king has instructed, the ninth prince has done a great service for saving the king.

Doesn't that mean you just need to sit on the bed?

Li Yue didn't hesitate, because his current injuries really weren't suitable for getting off the bed.

He did not hesitate and said to the eunuch, "Proclaim it!"

Jing Jing hesitated for a moment, then kneeled down, imitating the people of the Western Regions. She placed her right hand on her left and right, then lowered her head to listen to the imperial edict.

"In accordance with the will of the heavens, the King decreed that the Nine Sons of the Li Yue should sacrifice their lives to save Gu, that they should be righteous, that they should be filial, and that they should be lonely. In order to show his approval, he was awarded the title of King. One hundred thousand silver, a hundred cases of jewelry, and thirty thousand personal guards! "This order …"

The eunuch's shrill voice finished his speech, causing Li Yue and Jing Jing to fall into deep thought, unable to react.

What shocked Li Yue the most was that the words that the Western Region King said in order to keep his alive had begun to apply.

No one could match up to such a great reward.

According to national law, this was something that only those who had succeeded to the throne could enjoy.

And amongst the princes, there was not a single one who had obtained the title of an Emperor.

What made Jingjing depressed was why didn't this Western Region King reward her?

Didn't I say that if I kill Glue, I will receive a fair reward?

Besides, Abi had done a great service in the war.

Thinking to this point, Jingjing suddenly felt that something was wrong. Could it be that the Western Region King had already thought of a way to erase her contribution and give her a crime?

Thinking of this, Jingjing's heart inexplicably tensed up.

Just as he was daydreaming, the paper eunuch smiled and passed the decree to Li Yue, and said: "Ninth Prince, no... "Now that it's the Ninth Prince, His Majesty has said to first award you, your highness. As for the Ninth Prince's consort, once your highness' injury has healed, you can enter the palace to discuss it!"

You even need to enter the palace to discuss it?

Who knew what kind of crime they would give him?

Jingjing shook her head. Forget it, as long as the Western Region King doesn't punish her. As for the rewards, don't even think about it.

Ah Bi's injuries could be considered to have been for nothing.

Naturally, Li Yue could see that Jingjing was displeased. He ordered someone to beat up the eunuch who had tipped Xuan paper and sent him out.

Li Yue looked at Jingjing and knew that she would probably not tell his about the underground palace anymore. He then said, "You are the matriarch of the Prince's Mansion. Since Royal Father has bestowed it to you, you should go to the warehouse and take a look. If you like it, take it over."

"Alright!" Jingjing said dispiritedly, leaving Li Yue's bedroom.

When he arrived at the storage room, the servants were carrying boxes after boxes of jewelry.

Seeing that Jingjing had arrived, they respectfully invited her to count.

Jingjing thought that these things were nothing more than gold and silver, jewelry or something similar, but they were only a bunch of tacky necklaces and hairpins.

He opened a box first and saw that it was all silver.

Uninterested, he opened a box of slightly exquisite items and was startled.

Unexpectedly, it was a box of smooth and round pearls of the same size!

The full luster, the snow-white belly, especially lovable, especially for women.

Jingjing used her fingers to feel it, it really wasn't ordinary smooth.
