Chapter 10 A Lively Girl

Not long after this incident, almost everything was back to normal. However, there was an interesting story in the bedroom of King Yun. It was actually the consequence of this incident. Since ancient times, beauties had been victims of political power. A beautiful female entertainer was sent to King Yun. In his bedroom, this female entertainer danced so charmingly that King Yun couldn't control himself. In the middle of the night, the female entertainer lay in the arms of King Yun. After having sex, she poured a glass of water for King Yun. Before long, King Yun was even hornier. He seemed to be tireless while the female entertainer seduced him by every means. King Yun was the king who had unified the world. That night, he almost died on a woman's body. He was not young anymore and almost died of enjoying excessive freedom. It was so lucky that imperial physicians saved him in time. Otherwise, dying in this way would be a great humiliation for a king. It was then found that the female entertainer had put a volatile seductive drug on her dress that day. She also put a high-purity seductive drug in King Yun's tea. This was the only method she could use as a weak woman who did not practice martial arts. Because of her, King Yun knew the conspiracy of the Kingdom of Wu. The female entertainer did not die in an easy way. She was thrown into a barrack and raped by hundreds of thousands of soldiers. The minister who sent this female entertainer to King Yun was also proven to be a spy of the Kingdom of Wu. His body was torn limb from limb by five horses. The people of the Kingdom of Wu were under tight supervision. The Kingdom of Wu suffered great losses this time. On the other hand, King Yun was also humiliated. He dared not to sleep with women he didn't know again. In this way, he led a cleaner life. Yun Zhi was sitting in his study room, listening to Li Yi's report. He was very satisfied with how efficient Li Yi was. Taking advantage of it, he also kicked some spies out of his Jicong Mansion. It was a pity that King Yun was still alive. He had known that King Yun would not die so easily. After all, a bad guy always had a long life. He still felt very happy when he saw King Yun in bed for many days and unable to get up. Xiyan Palace had once been silent and cold, but now it was kind of different. The owner of Xiyan Palace, Princess Yun Xi, was standing under the phoenix tree. Her eyes were still staring in the direction in the distance. However, now her eyes were not empty but lively. Yue always paid attention to her. He was so glad when he saw the girl’s lively face like a butterfly that had left its cocoon. Yun Xi noticed Yue was behind her, so she called him "Yue". Her voice was soft and beautiful. Yue walked to her and the girl turned around to hug him, feeling the temperature of his body. This was what she clung to. She no longer needed to pity her own wound. Being so peaceful, she suddenly felt sleepy. The girl closed her eyes while Yue held her in his arms. He sat on the ground. Yun Xi lay in his arms, sleeping comfortably. But before Yun Xi fell asleep, they could hear someone coming to Xiyan Palace. The sound was not loud, but it could still be heard since this courtyard was unusually quiet. The girl opened her pure eyes. It could be seen from her eyes that she was not happy about being disturbed. She soon calmed down and stood up, leaving the arms of Yue. Yue also stood up. He was still near her. Yun Zhi was so anxious when attending the imperial court session in the early morning. He heard that the princess was assassinated last night. Although Yue had protected her, he was still so worried, especially when he didn't have time to visit the girl. Now he was in the imperial court but he couldn't concentrate at all. King Yun had asked him many questions, but he did not react. It's Crown Prince Yun Su who repeatedly reminded him so that he had not been humiliated in the court. Finally, the imperial court session came to an end. Yun Zhi walked toward Xiyan Palace as fast as he could. Crown Prince saw how anxious he was and he was very curious. Therefore, he also followed him behind. Yun Zhi pushed the door of Xiyan palace open and then walked in. He did not expect Crown Prince to follow him. Now Yun Zhi only cared about Yun Xi. Two men, Senior General Yun Zhi and Crown Prince Yun Su, saw such a beautiful scene—under the phoenix tree, a girl in white was pure and flawless. Her eyes were clear and she had a simple smile, full of energy. This kind of beauty was not merely about superficial appearance, but pure inner power. She was as incredibly clean and pure as a lily. Two men were staring at her and forgot about the passing time. Especially Yun Su who met the girl for the first time. He had been in this palace since childhood. Yun Su wanted to seize such kind of pureness more than anyone else. Judging by Yun Xi’s dress, she was not a palace maid. She lived in this palace. However, as the Crown Prince, he had never seen her. Yun Su suddenly thought of the two words “Xiyan Palace” above the gate. The identity of the girl was so obvious. The girl saw them first and the happiness on her face disappeared. The two were staring at her. She only wanted to greet them and then left as soon as possible. However, now her eyes were not empty anymore. She wanted to pretend to be indifferent and dull as always, but she was too innocent to do so. She couldn't look hopeless since she had got her soul back. Yue witnessed the complex change in Yun Xi’s eyes and he felt glad. Such a girl was lovely and even childish, which was something a girl of her age should have. He got closer to Yun Xi voluntarily to protect her. The girl now felt more relaxed. "You must be Sister Xi. I never knew that Sister Xi is such a wonderful person. I am your nominal eldest brother, Yun Su. No wonder Zhi rushed here the moment the imperial court session was over." Yun Su knew that no matter how beautiful this girl was, she was just a sacrifice. He should never have any relationship with her. However, who could control that? Yun Xi did not answer him. She still did not want to have a relationship with others and she only wanted to return to her room. Yue pulled her gently and answered him for her. Yue's voice was neither humble nor pushy, "His Royal Highness, the princess couldn't speak. Please forgive her." "It's all right, Sister Xi. I've heard about the fact that you couldn't speak. It's such a pity. The voice of a girl as beautiful and pure as Sister Xi must be livelier than that of an oriole. Don’t you think so, Zhi?" Crown Prince finally noticed Yue. He only thought he looked kind of familiar, but he didn't think much about it.
