Mu Xueshi originally wanted to shout out his identity, but when he met Third Prince's gaze, he became hesitant. His pants weren't up yet, his belt hung messily on either side of his waist, and his face was still smeared with ink.

"What would you do if I told you I'm not this man?"

Third Prince's gaze suddenly tightened as his eyes shot a glow of concentration towards Mu Xueshi. The corner of his mouth twitched as he slowly said: "Just look at your surroundings and you will know the consequences of your actions in advance."

Mu Xueshi quickly looked around. The range of his movement was very exaggerated. However, other than feeling that the scenery here was extremely beautiful and the environment was quiet and elegant, he couldn't find anything else that was related to his own consequences.

Originally, he wanted to ask, "What happened?", but seeing the situation, he needed to be careful when speaking. Although they had only known each other for a day, Mu Xueshi realized that Third Prince had always known the owner of this body. If that was the case, then he knew that he was going to serve his sentence, and it wasn't his kind heart that was going to be saved?

"I hope that Third Prince can enlighten me." Mu Xueshi pretended to bow towards Third Prince at forty-five degrees, with a respectful expression on his face.

Third Prince stared straight at Mu Xueshi. Seeing that he had yet to get up, he said coldly, "The servants were all over the yard just now, and now they're all gone. Why do you know?"

Mu Xueshi raised his head and looked at Third Prince. Seeing that Third Prince's expression didn't change, he replied humbly: "I don't know!"

Third Prince let out a cold snort. His voice was like a breeze, but the coldness in it could be easily read. He explained to Mu Xueshi word by word, "Just now, you rushed out of the room and entered the eyes of those servants. Anyone who sees you will die without a doubt."

Mu Xueshi was frowning and thinking at first, but when he translated Third Prince's words in his head, only disbelief remained on his face. He vaguely remembered that there was someone at the door when he rushed out. When he was ready, Third Prince was the only one around. Mu Xueshi originally wanted to ask Third Prince if he was joking, but the moment they met Third Prince's gaze, Mu Xueshi knew Third Prince didn't seem to be someone who would joke around. The thought of death sent a chill up Mu Xueshi's spine.

Realizing that this really happened, Mu Xueshi staggered over to Third Prince and asked emotionally, "Why is it that those who saw me have to die?"

Third Prince's heart froze and he didn't immediately answer Mu Xueshi's question. He originally thought that Mu Xueshi would further inquire about the consequences of his actions, but who knew that he would actually ask such a question. With a puzzled look, Third Prince looked Mu Xueshi up and down. He saw that Mu Xueshi's eyes were clear and that there was a silly look on his face, but he didn't seem to be joking at all.

Third Prince gently held Mu Xueshi's chin in his hand, stroking his cheek as he said softly, "Because I can only see your face, no one else can. A peeping peeper will be stabbed to death by the sword's blade."

Mu Xueshi had no time to notice how ambiguous Third Prince's action was. He just sat on the ground like he was provoked. Although his face was smeared with ink, it could not conceal the pallor within. At this moment, Mu Xueshi had once again become dispirited. The happiness he had when he woke up had long since disappeared.

Third Prince didn't show any mercy and continued to mock him: "Are you Mu Xueshi?"

Mu Xueshi listened quietly to Third Prince's words. His big eyes stared blankly at the ground as he nodded obediently. So my name is Mu Xueshi, my name is pleasant sounding, but I still have an ugly face, and I have a criminal background that even implicates others. Mu Xueshi only said that he did not understand the taboo here, so he caused others to die in vain.
