Yue Luoxue thought snappily. Was Nalan Rongxuan stupid? With his personality, how could he allow himself to be beaten?
When her palm was just an inch away from Nalan Rongxuan's face, Yue Luoxue stopped her. It's not that she was loath to hit him, but Nalan Rongxuan was still a prince. If she were to slap him like this, how would Nalan Rongxuan be able to leave such a mark on his face?
However, she had already let Nalan Rongxuan go out of her good intentions, but that fellow didn't appreciate her kindness at all. He had actually extended his hand to hold Yue Luoxue's hand, and half-forcefully pressed her hand onto his own face, gently rubbing it.
He leaned forward and whispered into Yue Luoxue's ears, "Little fox, I'm jealous."
Yue Luoxue only felt that the fire that was just about to rise in her heart had suddenly been extinguished, and what followed after was an indescribable emotion.
"Let go, pervert!" After being silent for a moment, Yue Luoxue pushed Nalan Rongxuan away, she felt that her heart was about to start beating.
Nalan Rongxuan laughed joyfully: "You know, I'm only interested in you."
Yue Luoxue's beautiful face was about to burn up. This fellow must have been possessed by something today, right? Such shameless words were getting smoother and smoother, and she was slightly afraid. If Nalan Rongxuan kept talking like this, she didn't know how to face it.
"I'm going to rest, quickly go back. If those master Junior Brothers and Sisters find out, wouldn't I be in danger again?"
Nalan Rongxuan's expression changed, retracted his smile, and said seriously: "Luoxue, what I said that day was true."
"If your master really killed me, would you be able to clash head on with his blade and sword?" They had never properly discussed about this topic, because she didn't want to make things difficult for Nalan Rongxuan.
Because if it was her turn, she wouldn't be able to cause a ruckus between Nalan Rongxuan and the master!
Nalan Rongxuan's hand suddenly tightened, and fearlessly met Yue Luoxue's eyes. "I will!"
He had already given way for too long, but the last time Yue Luoxue almost died, it completely reminded him that he could not avoid it on purpose.
This time, it was Yue Luoxue who was surprised. Nalan Rongxuan's expression was serious, she knew that he wasn't just saying it, he was just saying it for his and the master. Her mind was in chaos again.
"I understand. Go back first."
Nalan Rongxuan did not say anything else. Today, he had already forced the little fox to a corner, allowing her to think it through clearly. He said in a gentle tone, "Rest well, in the future, don't go out and meet other men."
Yue Luoxue was speechless, but she didn't know what to say to him. She kept feeling a little awkward, she couldn't be like how she was in the past.
After being silent for a while, hearing no sounds from the room, Yue Luoxue turned around. Nalan Rongxuan had already left.
"Little girl, just admit it. You're also interested in that sickly brat." The Thousand Revolution Worm Poison climbed onto the Silent Iron Gu's body, looking serious, "You say it, Xiao Tie?"
The Spirit Iron Gu nodded its head dumbly. The Thousand Revolution Worm Poison laughed out loud: "Look, even Xiao Tie, who is so slow, can see that. Little girl, your EQ has probably been eaten by Xiao Tie."
"You ate it!" Yue Luoxue was annoyed, it was not because she did not feel it, but because she felt that she was different from Nalan Rongxuan.
In her heart, she felt that the person she liked was Young Master Rong, because when she faced him, her face would redden and her heart would palpitate. Even if she wanted to draw a clear distance between them, she would unconsciously move closer when she saw him.
But towards Nalan Rongxuan, she seemed to have become a habit. She did not hate his contact, she would be nervous for her, and sometimes he might even get a little jealous.
No, no...
Yue Luoxue shook her head. It was absolutely not because she was two-headed, but it was definitely because the two of them were too similar. Sometimes, she would feel a little absent-minded, if only they were one and the same.
Yue Luoxue's heart skipped a beat when she thought of this. She reckoned that the person who was abnormal today was her!
After tidying up her mess, Yue Luoxue suddenly remembered that she still hadn't explained everything about Hua Qianli yet. Forget it, as long as Nalan Rongxuan knew about it, she would go out again tomorrow and instruct some people to properly investigate about Hua Qianli.
Knowing yourself and knowing your enemy wouldn't hurt, so they would only have a chance to strike if they understood why Hua Qianli and Nalan Ronglang had contacted each other.
On the second day of Nalan Rongjun's disappearance, a senior official wrote a letter in the morning court saying that the Crown Prince Nalan Rongjun had disrespected the decree and left the Southern Shrine without permission. His words hinted that the Crown Prince was planning a rebellion.
Then, someone started to take the stage. The Crown Prince Nalan Rongjun had recruited troops personally and had even formed a private camp on the south island, plotting against them.
After the incident with Sixth Prince Nalan Rongyu, the ministers who were part of the crown prince's faction were slowly being affected. Currently, there were only a few who spoke up for the crown prince, so the Nalan Jie was furious on the spot.
Although the Nalan Jie had yet to cripple the position of Crown Prince, everyone was clear that this time, Nalan Rongjun did not have any chance to turn the situation around. On the contrary, Nalan Ronglang was thriving and some people had already started to curry favor with him.
Nalan Rongxuan, who was thought to be competitive, didn't make any movements, and even stayed in his Duke Palace quietly, as if everything that happened outside had nothing to do with him.
At this time, another news spread across the continent. Sunscorch Kingdom had signed a contract with Silver Moon Nation, Lanling Country, and the Southern Frontier Shaman Clan to become an alliance. Then, North Qi and Navy Tide didn't want to fall behind and also became an alliance.
On this continent, two factions had formed, but the Mystic Star Country was faced with the problem of choosing a faction. Fortunately, because of the small size of the country, no faction dared to act against it.
However, they were a little nervous inside the imperial court. The rumors had been spreading for hundreds of years, and choosing a camp was extremely important. However, the crown prince Nalan Rongjun was still nowhere to be seen, so the old emperor's Nalan Jie couldn't really do as he was doing.
Once again in the morning assembly, the Nalan Jie asked Nalan Rongjun how he was doing, Nalan Ronglang and the official in charge looked at each other, as though they were unwilling, but were also disappointed as they handed over the papers.
Nalan Jie opened it and looked, his face turning more and more unsightly. In the end, he abruptly threw the paper in the hall and shouted angrily, "Unfilial son, unfilial son!"
His chest continuously heaved up and down. It was unknown whether he was angry or not, but Nalan Jie's entire body was trembling as he closed his eyes. Finally, he opened his mouth: "Pass down Our decree.
