C43

On the morning of the next day, Jiu Muli woke up refreshed from his cultivation in the early morning as the faint light of dawn enveloped him. The little episode that Nangong Xueji brought back last night had already been forgotten by her.

"Miss, His Highness Duke of Qin invites you to the main hall for a chat." Bai Qing hurriedly pushed open the door and entered. In her heart, there was still a bit of fear towards this illustrious and moody Prince Qin who was an outsider.

Jiu Muli raised his eyebrows in shock. He couldn't help but look at the sky, was it the sun rising from the west today? It was definitely not a good thing that the evil spirit Qin Zheng was looking for her!

She cleaned herself up and slowly walked towards the main hall, dressed in a long skirt.

"Ninth Miss is here." Director Chen welcomed her with a smile and led her into the palace. Jiu Muli was already accustomed to his enthusiasm, so she probed indirectly, "What important matter does the evil spirit have with him?"

Director Chen's eyes were rolling around, he was an old man from the palace, naturally he was an intelligent person, he knew what to say and should not be said, thus he considered his words and laughed, "Miss Nangong is also inside, His Highness's complexion is not good, as for what they are saying, this servant does not know."

Nangong Xueji!

This sudden name made Jiu Muli's footsteps pause, as a look of understanding flashed past his eyes. As expected, this fellow still refused to give up. He didn't agree to do anything for her yesterday, so was he here to threaten and take revenge on her?

She, Jiu Muli, was not an easy target!

Soldiers come and block; men come and go.

Pushing open the main door of the main hall, the first scene that entered his line of sight was Nangong Xueji standing next to Qin Zheng, with a smile plastered on his face, but Qin Zheng's face revealed a faint sense of silence, as he listened to her speak with a deadpan expression.

One of them was wearing a snow-white robe while the other was wearing an ink-like black robe. Both of them were unparalleled characters with unparalleled beauty. They stood shoulder to shoulder and looked like a couple made of gold and jade; they had a tacit understanding of each other.

Jiu Muli somehow felt that it was a little sarcastic as he smirked, his voice that had just woken up became hoarse, "I wonder why Prince Qin called me here?"

Qin Zheng looked at her with mixed emotions. She pursed her lips into an arc, but didn't directly answer her question.

Upon seeing this, a look of sympathy appeared on Nangong Xueji's face, her beautiful eyes were filled with water, rippling with autumn waves, she spoke with an extremely sincere manner: "It's because I still have some doubts, so I specially invited Ninth Miss to come and resolve it."

Jiu Muli could see the schadenfreude hidden beneath the surface of her sympathy. He did not have a good impression of this person in his heart, who was in front of him, and the woman in front of him.

However, what she did next might be able to help her a little.

Her life, which was under the control of others, finally had a breakthrough.

Therefore, she pretended to not know what Nangong Xueji was thinking in his heart, and asked with a smile, "Then how do you want me to cooperate with the Miss Nangong?"

A hint of happiness flashed across Nangong Xueji's eyes, "In the book, it is recorded that a pregnant woman's pulse is like a pearl rolling on a jade plate. From the speed of the blood vessels on her left and right, it is still possible to tell whether the baby is male or female, does the Ninth Miss not want to know what happened to her child?"

Her voice was soft and beautiful like a bird's chirping. She bit down on the word 'child'.

No matter how extravagant his boasting was, his pulse could reveal everything! At that time, the matter of Jiu Muli pretending to be pregnant will be exposed, and people will hate him!

"It looks like the name of the Immortal Doctor is indeed well-deserved. So what if I try?" Jiu Muli then extended out her slender hand, and handed it over to Nangong Xueji.

Unexpectedly, before Nangong Xueji could establish a meridian, her hand was grabbed by another big palm, and the owner of the big hand, was undoubtedly Qin Zheng.

Qin Zheng said with a cold and proud face, her voice ice cold, "Your situation is special.

"Prince Qin is truly a precious treasure. He isn't even willing for me to touch him." A dark light of jealousy flashed quietly in Nangong Xueji's eyes.

Just what virtue and ability did she have to actually have Qin Zheng protecting her everywhere!

However, the depth of his love was his responsibility. The more Qin Zheng trusted her now, the more hatred he would have towards her the moment the lie of the pregnancy was exposed.

Nangong Xueji's eyes slightly moved, the dimples at the corner of her lips becoming faint, "As long as I am truly pregnant, I will definitely be able to see something from the pulse. Does Prince Qin not trust me?"

Qin Zheng was a little hesitant. The name of a disciple of the Immortal Doctor, in the entire Qin Kingdom, and even this entire Eternal Continent, was extremely famous. Furthermore, Nangong Xueji had been invited by him to help him out greatly with the request of a Opening the Profound Vein! If he offended her, the matter of the profound vein would probably cause even more waves.

However ? Seeing Jiu Muli's indifferent look, Qin Zheng's anger rose immediately. His eyes were as sharp as a falcon's as he stared at her. Was this woman really that impatient to leave his side?

"No matter what, I don't agree!" He was resolute and determined, and the strength exerted by his hands gradually increased.

The aura of this woman's bloodline was compatible with his, and only he could sense her intimacy. He still chose to persevere on with his thoughts.

"Hiss ?" Sensing that his own os manus was about to be crushed, Jiu Muli couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. It was precisely this sudden inhalation that caused Qin Zheng to wake up in an instant, and release her hand.

Nangong Xueji, who had been carefully sowing discord, had the smile on his face completely frozen at the corner of his mouth. She had thought of all sorts of ways, but she never would have thought that the greatest resistance would come from Yu Qinzheng himself.

"His Highness Duke of Qin, you don't understand her true face!" She couldn't help but cry out. The red envy in her eyes was almost about to burst out.

Qin Zheng actually trusted Jiu Muli that much? Even her, a disciple of the Immortal Doctor, turned a deaf ear to his words.

A vicious thought flashed through her mind, she immediately made her move as fast as lightning and grabbed Jiu Muli's slender wrist. A pair of slender fingers felt the pulse on her wrist.

A string of actions were like flowing water, it was already too late for Qin Zheng to save her!

She had already felt the pulse ? it was calm, with no signs of the smooth flow of pregnancy!

Nangong Xueji was instantly overjoyed, only that this emotion lasted for a short while, and in the next moment, she changed her expression into a face full of grief and indignation. You were deceived by this woman, she is not pregnant at all, all of this is just an excuse she made to stay in Jiuhua Hall! "

Standing in the middle of the whirlpool, Jiu Muli still had a calm smile on his face and silently praised Nangong Xueji's brilliant performance in his heart.

If she was able to escape from this evil spirit's side this time, Nangong Xueji would definitely benefit greatly!
