Ning Xiang helplessly shook her head and picked up all the pieces scattered on the ground.

"Wangfei, in fact, it's only right for you to move to the Wordless Pavilion. You're the official wife of the prince, so you should be staying with him anyway. What's more …"

Ning Xiang, who originally wanted to continue, suddenly felt someone abruptly strangling her throat. She raised her head and directly collided with Xiao Lan's cold and thorough gaze.

"Wang... "Esteemed wangfei …"

"One more word, I'll take your head off."

Xiao Lan pushed away the fragrance, stood up, and left with a baleful aura.

The crowd in the Jadechild Pavilion only felt that the warm sun today wasn't actually warm at all, on the contrary, it sent chills down their spines.

It was night. When Xiao Lan sat on the wordless pavilion master's bed, she felt that her remaining arrogance had vanished as well.

Thinking of Yu-An, just four words left her with no other choice.

Lifting his head and looking around, he found that the Wordless Temple was both luxurious and simple, and it really fit Xuanyuan Feng's tastes.

The night was very quiet, and the moonlight was not clear. The wind carried a chill, but it was not frightening.

Xiao Lan quietly sat on the edge of the bed.

Such a quiet night was perfect for thinking about something, but at this moment, Xiao Xiao didn't think about anything, his mind was completely blank.

She was subconsciously waiting for that man to come back.

After returning … He thought about how he should get along with him.

From the beginning of the night until the end of the night, Xuanyuan Wentian did not appear, and his wait was like an ordeal. As he waited, Xiao Lan could not help but straighten her body, not allowing herself to look drowsy.

Dawn came, and the faint sounds of servants waking up could be heard from outside.

Xiao Lan raised her gaze, stood up, and walked towards the window. Her body that had been sitting by the window for the entire night had long since stiffened. At this moment, every place she went caused her to feel an aching pain.

"Princess."

A light voice came from the door. It was Ning Xiang.

Xiao Lan replied, "Come in."

Ning Xiang pushed the door open and entered, carrying the tools needed for washing up. Seeing Xiao Lan standing by the window in a straight line, she subconsciously swept her gaze towards the bed and understood what she meant when she saw the neatly arranged bedding.

Ning Xiang brought the wet brocade handkerchief to Xiao Lan's hand. "Princess, have you waited for an entire night for your highness?"

Xiao Lan took the handkerchief and wiped her face without saying anything.

Ning Xiang looked at Xiao Lan as she spoke carefully.

"This servant heard from the guards below that the prince has left for the capital again in the morning. I probably won't be able to return for a few days, the wangfei …" In the evening, you should go to bed early and not wait for the Prince. "

Xiao Lan would definitely be displeased by these words of Xiao Ning Xiang's, but at this moment, her heart was relaxed.

It would be great if she could leave the capital, but she wouldn't have to live with him when she went out.

Xiao Lan, who had just finished her breakfast, snuggled comfortably in a bamboo chair in the courtyard, drinking tea and taking a nap.

There were quite a few servants in the Wordless Pavilion, but it was extremely quiet. If it wasn't for the fact that you intentionally sensed their presence, you wouldn't have noticed them.

Xiao Lan raised his brows slightly as he held the teacup. He had to admit that Xuanyuan Wentian had taught the people beneath him quite well.

Suddenly recalling something, Xiao Lan looked at Ning Xiang and asked, "Have you seen any afterimages recently?"

She hasn't seen a shadow since she woke up. Where is this right-hand man, Xuanyuan? Didn't he say that he would give it to her?

Upon hearing the name of the afterimage, Ning Xiang's expression became very strange. Her large eyes blinked a few times, and then she replied with a strange sound.

"Your servant heard that afterimages were sent to the secret chamber, and up till now, the Prince still hasn't released him, so I don't know what kind of mistake he has committed." Your servant heard that afterimages were sent to the secret chamber, and up to now, the Prince still hasn't released him, so I don't know what crime he has committed.

Hearing this, Xiao Lan stopped drinking her tea.

20 days later …

Xiao Lan's eyes narrowed. "Were they punished the day I lost consciousness?"

Hearing this, Ning Xiang quickly nodded. "Yes, it was that day."

Xiao Lan became even more sluggish, and she naturally thought of the sky full of arrows that day. After a short moment, Xiao Lan put down the teacup and stood up. "Where's the secret room? "Take me there."

Ah?!

Ning Xiang instantly opened her eyes wide.

"Princess, what are you doing in that place?"

It's not a good place.

Seeing that Ning Xiang was hesitating, Xiao Lan's gaze instantly turned cold. "Don't say too much, lead the way."

When she saw Xiao Lan's cold gaze, Ning Xiang immediately shut her mouth. Thinking of her throat that still hurt even now, she obediently led the way ahead.

The secret room was located at the back mountain of the palace. It was a separate courtyard, and one could see the elegance within the front hall. The moment one stepped into the back courtyard, a bloody and rotten smell wafted out.

The guard in the backyard quickly noticed Xiao Lan and instantly let out a fierce cry.

"Stop!" Who are you, to dare trespass into the dark room! "

Just as Ning Xiang was about to speak, Xiao Lan stopped her. "Go wait in the antechamber."

This little girl was probably sensitive to the smell of blood. She had secretly vomited several times in less than a quarter of an hour.

Ning Xiang raised her head to look at Xiao Lan. "Royal Consort … "Your servant will still follow you …"

Follow?

Xiao Lan smiled. "Let's go back."

She'd be sick for more than a day if she smoked for half a minute.

Xiao Lan didn't have the time to persuade her this way before she ran far away, vomiting in front of her master. This was a great disrespect, as it was likely she would be beaten to death if she vomited too much.

After Ning Xiang left, Xiao Lan looked at the guard at the door again. "I want to see afterimages."

Afterimage?

The guards were stunned, "Who the hell are you?!"

Xiao Lan's clear eyes slightly narrowed. "I'm Ulan Yi."

Ulan Yi!

Realizing something, the guards were immediately shocked. She was the Regent's Consort!

The few of them glanced at each other, and even though they were shocked, they carefully swept their gaze over Xiao Lan's clothing and accessories.

Indeed, only a princess would wear such clothes, but why would a princess come here herself? Furthermore, she was looking at a guard.

Just then, a guard walked out with a long, bleeding whip in his hand. Seeing the guards standing blankly at the door, he coldly reprimanded them.

"What are you guys blanking out for!"

Everyone quickly recovered from the noise.

One of the guards approached quickly and whispered into his ear.

"Chief, a woman came. She said she's the wangfei and wants to see the shadow guard."

The man quickly raised his head to look at Xiao Lan when he heard these words, and his entire body shook when he saw Xiao Lan's face clearly.

He had also been dispatched to the Dark Pavilion during the bloody battle that day, so he naturally knew of this "heaven shocking earth" Regent Consort.

In the next second, the man quickly walked to the front of Xiao Lan and knelt down to pay his respects.

"Your subordinate Wu Yu greets the Regent's Consort."

The guards also quickly kneeled to the ground when they saw their superiors kneeling down to greet them. However, they couldn't help feeling shocked in their hearts. Their heads were able to calmly face the king when they saw him, so why did they have this kind of expression?

Xiao Lan looked at Wu Yu. From the looks of it, she seemed to know her. Since it was so easy to get acquainted with her, Xiao Lan was straightforward.

"Where's Shadow? Take me to see him."

"This …" Wu Yu's face was clearly troubled.

Xiao Lan: "Is there a problem?"

Wu Yu hesitated for a few seconds before she returned carefully.

"Esteemed wangfei, although the prince didn't say that he had released an afterimage …" But, she didn't say that she would kill him. Look at this … "
