When Jun Yeyan heard the words of Jun Wuhen, he nodded and said: “You are right, my brother. I think so. Once my mother gave me an item and said that only my princess could open it. This item has been placed in my palace since that time. I am going to bring it here. Please take good care of Aoxue for me, brother.”
Jun Wuhen listened to Jun Yeyan’s words and his eyes lit up. He said: “Go ahead. I have told Cangsheng to get ready. When you come back, let’s go to worship.”
Jun Yeyan nodded. He looked at Bai Aoxue and said: “Aoxue, wait me for a while. My palace is distant from here. You’d better have some rest for a while.”
Bai Aoxue certainly knew that Jun Yeyan gave her time for purpose. There was no doubt that Jun Wuhen would ask her about the progress. She needed some time.
“Well. Just go, Prince. I will wait for you here as you wish.” Bai Aoxue nodded as if she was tractable.
Watching this, Jun Yeyan stood up and walked away without hesitation.
Seeing that Jun Yeyan had left, Jun Wuhen raised his hand and lit up the incense. He asked slowly: “How is it going?”
Bai Aoxue turned her head to Jun Wuhen dully with empty and no-focus eyes. She looked at Jun Wuhen and said: “Master, Jun Yeyan still doesn’t completely trust me. I didn’t walk around his palace yesterday. I still need some time.”
At this time, Bai Aoxue’s soul seemed to have been taken away. She was just like a puppet.
Seeing this, Jun Wuhen knew that Bai Qiwei did not lie to him. The soul-controller worked.
Although the soul-controller was a drug, if you wanted to control the person who ate the poison, you must let that man smell this unique incense as well so that the poison would take effect.
“You must get the trust of Jun Yeyan as soon as possible. Enter his study and find his connection with the ministers and his economic source.” Jun Wuhen squinted and ordered.
Bai Aoxue nodded dully. She was just like a person whose soul was controlled.
In fact, Bai Aoxue was very disdainful in her heart. The only means vile characters like Jun Wuhen could use were some opportunistic tricks like this.
After Bai Aoxue nodded, Jun Wuhen extinguished the incense quietly.
Seeing that Bai Aoxue was still a little bit unconscious, Jun Wuhen stood up and opened the window.
“Oh… what happened to me…” Bai Aoxue said softly.
Jun Wuhen walked slowly and asked: “Aoxue, what happened?”
Bai Aoxue pretended to be a little unconscious. She looked up at Jun Wuhen: “Nothing. Emperor, have you smelled any fragrance?”
Listening to the words of Bai Aoxue, Jun Wuhen said with a calm face: “Any fragrance? Where? I have not noticed.”
Hearing Jun Wuhen’s words that he did not smell it, Bai Aoxue wondered: “That’s weird. I just smelled a light fragrance.”
“Probably it is because of the flowers in the yard. I just opened the window. The flowers in Moyu Hall are mostly exotic and fragrant since it is not strange to have fragrance.” Jun Wuhen said faintly, as if what he said was the case.
Listening to Jun Wuhen’s words, Bai Aoxue tightened her sleeves. She was very appreciative of Jun Wuhen’s acting skills. Jun Wuhen was really difficult to deal with for his first-class acting skill and complicated mind.
“I got it. I’m so ignorant.” Bai Aoxue was suddenly enlightened after listening to Jun Wuhen’s words.
Seeing that Bai Aoxue did not continue to ask, Jun Wuhen dismissed his doubt of Bai Aoxue. As he remembered, the man eating the poison would not smell the incense. Did he get wrong information? Or was it because that Bai Aoxue was not adaptive when she smelled incense for the first time?
Bai Aoxue probably did not expect that there was such a connection between the poison and the incense. If she continued to ask, Jun Wuhen might have doubts about her again.
“It’s not a big deal. Very few people can enter Moyu Hall, so it’s not strange that you don’t know.” Jun Wuhen explained.
Listening to Jun Wuhen’s words, Bai Aoxue had some doubts: “I wonder if you know that Concubine Yun is holding a feast in the palace today to banquet Princess Luoyan?”
To be honest, Bai Aoxue was still somewhat worried about Luoyan. After all, it was not in Mobei Dynasty. Some things were not understood by Luoyan all the time. According to Liu Manyun’s personality, she would definitely find ways to get rid of Luoyan.
It was impossible for her to allow Jun Wuhen to cherish other women. There was still no other pregnant in this palace until now, which was probably because of the means of Liu Manyun!
And women with strong personality, like Luoyan, must not be able to get along with Liu Manyun. What’s more, there were many people who gossiped around Liu Manyun.
When Jun Wuhen listened to Bai Aoxue’s unintentional words, his eyes suddenly turned cold and looked at Bai Aoxue. He said: “When is it?”
When Bai Aoxue saw the appearance of Jun Wuhen, she knew that Liu Manyun concealed from Jun Wuhen that she invited Luoyan. It seemed that Liu Manyun really couldn’t stand it for just one minute.
“Shortly before I entered the palace, I met Princess Luoyan outside the palace. She told me that Concubine Yun invited her to visit the imperial garden and see the flowers.” Bai Aoxue told Jun Wuhen in detail.
As soon as Jun Wuhen listened, he suddenly clenched his fist tightly with cold eyes.
It seemed that Liu Manyun didn’t take his words seriously.
Jun Yeyan had returned just as Jun Wuhen pondered.
“Xue, what’s wrong? Why do you look so pale?” When Jun Yeyan stepped into the house, he saw that Bai Aoxue put her hands on the table with a pale face.
Hearing what Jun Yeyan said, Jun Wuhen saw Bai Aoxue’s pale look immediately when he looked up.
“It’s alright, today my stomach is not very comfortable. It ached for a while just now.” Bai Aoxue whispered with the fragile appearance, making Jun Yeyan distressed.
“Is there anything you eat unsanitary?” Jun Wuhen asked first.
As soon as Jun Yeyan heard the voice of Jun Wuhen, his eyes suddenly shrank. He went forward to hold Bai Aoxue and said: “I think it is because you didn’t eat anything yesterday that your stomach was hurt.”
Jun Wuhen heard and nodded: “It seems that Aoxue is a little weak today. It’s better for her to go back to the palace to have a rest. Visiting the ancestors can be delayed for a few days. Since Aoxue has already belonged to royal family, it is just a matter of time when she will visit ancestors.
In his view, visiting ancestors was nothing but a trick to send Jun Yeyan away. Since the ancestors were all dead, there was no necessity to visit. Now Bai Aoxue’s appearance was just what Jun Wuhen wanted to saw. Besides, he had his heart set on the royal garden. He had no time with them.
Bai Aoxue’s behavior gave him an excellent excuse to leave. He’s so satisfied.
When Bai Aoxue heard Jun Wuhen’s words, she was in agreement with him from deep heart. She really didn’t want to visit ancestors.
“Thank you, emperor.” Bai Aoxue said weakly.
Jun Yeyan pretended to look at Jun Wuhen gratefully: “Thank you, brother, and then we shall leave first.” Then he gently lifted Bai Aoxue up.
“It’s better to let Aoxue take a rest here. I will tell the doctor to come over.” Jun Wuhen said with fictitious concern.
Bai Aoxue shook her head and said: “I appreciate for your concern. Aoxue’s stomach illness has existed for a long time. It will be fine to have some medicine at home. You don’t have to worry about it.”
“If so, then you should go back to take some medicine soon.” Jun Wuhen followed the words of Bai Aoxue.
Jun Yeyan also no longer stayed. He supported Bai Aoxue and walked out of Moyu Hall.
Jun Wuhen kept watching them until they left. And soon a little eunuch came in: “The emperor, 5th prince has already left. They met the Mr. Cangsheng on the way, the princess seemed to have a few words with him. It seems that they are in very good relationship.”
Jun Wuhen heard the words of the little eunuch, nodded and said: “Set out for the garden.”
Meanwhile he wondered inside when the relationship between Cangsheng and Bai Aoxue was so good.
On the other scene, Bai Aoxue and Jun Yeyan had just got on the carriage and was about to leave the palace. Bai Aoxue released the hand of Jun Yeyan, lying on the soft couch: “You have heard the talk between Jun Wuhen and me, right?”
Jun Yeyan knew what Bai Aoxue meant, but he did not say anything.
Bai Aoxue noticed that Jun Yeyan didn’t say a word. She kept saying, “Should I leak him some useful news?”
Jun Yeyan still didn’t say a word. His whole body was surrounded by cold air.
Bai Aoxue couldn’t help frowning but had no idea what Jun Yeyan meant.
However, she made no comments and closed her eyes to take a break.
At that moment, the silence in the carriage was depressing.
“Xue…” Jun Yeyan slowly said in a hoarse, low but attractive voice.
Bai Aoxue kept in silence, turning her look at Jun Yeyan.
Jun Yeyan’s black phoenix-like eyes turned to be amber ones when no one noticed the transformation. He looked at Bai Aoxue in a serious way: “Did you really eat the soul-controller?”
Bai Aoxue nodded: “I did eat it. But I didn’t swallow it.”
Sure enough, it was what he had thought before. The atmosphere around Jun Yeyan turned cold suddenly. He stared at Bai Aoxue: “Don’t you ever consider the consequence if you accidentally swallow it?”
Bai Aoxue didn’t understand why Jun Yeyan was so angry, and she said: “But the truth is that I didn’t.”
Looking at Bai Aoxue’s appearance at this time, Jun Yeyan was kind of distressed for she was so merciless to herself and kind of angry for she was not responsible for herself!
But in no way he would get angry with her, he had to suppress his voice: “Don’t take risks from now on.”
Bai Aoxue nodded: “Do not worry. We have known each other for so long. You should know what kind of person I am. What Jun Wuhen had done to me would be paid off. I will torture him in thousands of ways in the future. I am absolutely not the one that can suffer losses.”
Jun Yeyan heard that and wanted to touch her head, but it was then when the carriage was vigorously shaken. If it were not for the arms of Jun Yeyan, Bai Aoxue would fell down from the soft couch.
“He courts for death!”
“Damn thief! Grab him!”
The sound from outside was still screaming, but two men in the carriage were buried in silence.
Jun Yeyan caught Bai Aoxue and the distance between them had been almost infinitely reduced, only one centimeter away!
Bai Aoxue’s hands reached the shoulders of Jun Yeyan. She looked incredulously at Jun Yeyan with her beautiful phoenix-like eyes. And her cheek began to glow quickly.
Jun Yeyan held Bai Aoxue in his arms, admiring her flawless appearance.
He felt satisfied. If not for the noisy sound outside, it should be a beautiful scene.
Feeling the embarrassed atmosphere, Bai Aoxue quickly shook off Jun Yeyan with a beautiful turn. Sitting on the soft couch, she slightly turned and coughed awkwardly: “Cough…cough… I won’t thank you.”
When Jun Yeyan heard the words, he knew the meaning and there was a vague smile on the corner of his mouth.
She was such an arrogant pretty.
Even her shy look was incredibly arrogant…
“What happened?” Jun Yeyan asked the driver in an indifferent voice.
