Prince Pampers the Escaping Consort

Yan Xiaoxi held her breath as she stared below.

Inside the house, there were two men. One of them was dressed in black and wore a hat, so it was impossible to see his appearance. As for the other man, Yan Xiaoxi recognized him. It was that annoying Nangong Zhen.

What was he planning? He definitely wanted to harm Little Linlin.

"Crown Prince, you only need to cooperate with this old man. The man in black said.

"Alright, since it's like this … If you stand on this prince's side, we are like grasshoppers on a string. " Yan Xiaoxi did not hear the two words in the middle clearly.

"This time around, this old man will definitely make Yan Xiaoxi and Nangong Lin pay with their blood." The man in black gritted his teeth as he spoke, as if he had a huge grudge against the two of them.

On the rooftop, Yan Xiaoxi frowned. She really couldn't understand what this matter had to do with her.

He thought about how kind she was and how she treated people with friendliness. She would never have any enmity with anyone, so why would anyone want to plot against her?

Of course, with the exception of Nangong Zhen and Liu Zhixue, she did not want to offend them. All of this was Nangong Lin's fault.

The scorching heat was precisely the time when the insects and ants were densely packed. Yan Xiaoxi could always hear the buzzing sounds coming from the distance, and occasionally, there would even be a few flies and mosquitoes flying in front of her eyes.

Suddenly, a mosquito that was unafraid of death landed on Yan Xiaoxi's nose.

Because she was afraid of alarming Nangong Zhen, Yan Xiaoxi only used the blowing method to chase away the mosquito. However, that mosquito seemed to be very hungry, and no matter how Yan Xiaoxi blew, it remained indifferent, causing Yan Xiaoxi to be completely stupefied.

Without a care in the world, he struck out with his palm.

"I want you to suck my blood." Yan Xiaoxi clapped her hands and removed the mosquito's body from her palm.

"Who?" Her actions also happened to alarm the two people in the room.

'Not good! 'Yan Xiaoxi exclaimed. How could she forget her current situation? If Nangong Zhen caught her, she would be in trouble.

Before he could notify little Lin Lin Lin, he would be tortured by Nangong Zhen, or even killed.

As she thought of this, Yan Xiaoxi felt as if something bad was about to happen. She hurriedly ran away.

When Nangong Zhen came out of the room, he could no longer see Yan Xiaoxi. He gave the black clothed man a look and the black clothed man understood. He then disappeared from the room.

At this time, Nangong Zhen suddenly shouted, "Assassin has arrived!"

In a split-second, the patrolling guards rushed over. They clasped their hands together and knelt on the ground, asking, "Your Highness, what happened?"

"There's an assassin. Immediately send someone to look for him. Even if you have to search the entire palace, you have to find him." Of course Nangong Zhen would not let him go, because the person might have heard his secret.

"Yes." With the order given, the guards immediately took action. They started searching the palace in batches, searching everywhere, not missing a single place.

Yan Xiaoxi used her Qing Gong to travel back and forth without any obstruction. She had originally wanted to return to her room, but if Nangong Zhen didn't know who it was, she definitely wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

However, Nangong Lin's palace was completely surrounded by guards. It was so airtight that it was likely that not even a fly could fly past them. Yan Xiaoxi felt that she did not have absolute confidence in being able to return to her room without being seen by others.

She had no choice but to give up this idea. Then, she thought that returning to her room was no good, so she might as well leave the palace.

Furthermore, she had not expected that there would be even more guards waiting at the entrance of the palace.

Yan Xiaoxi was wearing night clothes. If someone saw her, it would be hard to explain. She would take off her night clothes and not go to bed in the middle of the night. She would stroll around the Imperial Palace and not arouse anyone's suspicions.

Right now, she was in a difficult situation.

Just as Yan Xiaoxi was hesitating, a sharp-eyed guard noticed her hiding on the rooftop and immediately shouted, "The assassin is over there."

Very quickly, the people below began to move, all of them moving in the direction of Yan Xiaoxi.

Seeing this, Yan Xiaoxi continued to dodge. Just as she got rid of the group of assassins at the entrance, she encountered another wave of assassins. After getting rid of this wave of assassins, she immediately encountered a third group.

After circling around for a bit, Yan Xiaoxi realised that she had actually made a detour back to her original spot.

The most dangerous place would be the safest place. Yan Xiaoxi thought to herself, Now I can finally rest.

However, how could she know that Nangong Zhen had always stayed here and never left.

"Who are you?" Immediately, Nangong Zhen found traces of Yan Xiaoxi.

Yan Xiaoxi was startled. She wanted to run away again, but she didn't even look at Nangong Zhen, she just wanted to use her movement technique to fly away. The moment she leaped, countless nets came flying towards her like a rain, covering her and causing her to fall to the ground.

She struggled, only to find herself covered by several nets, as if tied up by several ropes, completely trapping her within them.

Nangong Zhen walked over to Yan Xiaoxi. Due to the fact that Yan Xiaoxi was wearing a veil, he had yet to discover her identity.

"All of you can leave. This assassin is going to be personally interrogated by this crown prince."

"Yes." The guards immediately left.

Nangong Zhen pressed closer and closer to Yan Xiaoxi.

Yan Xiaoxi was lying on the ground, untangling the large net. Nangong Zhen had already arrived at her side, but she had no other choice. The rope was stuck to her body like glue.

"Speak, who sent you?" Nangong Zhen squatted down and reached out his hand to remove the veil covering Yan Xiaoxi's face.

Yan Xiaoxi turned her face away. In order to conceal her identity, she had also deliberately kept silent.

Nangong Zhen smiled mockingly. "This crown prince will let you taste the taste of living a life worse than death."

With that, Nangong Zhen once again extended his evil hand towards the veil on Yan Xiaoxi's hand. He had already prepared himself to use his other hand to control her movements. It was she who was unable to move.

Yan Xiaoxi was completely stunned. Her heart was filled with anxiety and she didn't know how she could escape from this place.

Nangong Zhen's hand was already holding onto her black veil. As long as he took it off, he would be able to see her true appearance.

At this critical moment, Yan Xiaoxi felt herself being hugged by a powerful arm. The person who came had struck Nangong Zhen's palm and pulled up Yan Xiaoxi's big net. With a leap, he disappeared into the night sky.

The mysterious man carried Yan Xiaoxi to a safe place before putting her down.

After standing still, Yan Xiaoxi took off the veil covering her face, and suddenly threw herself into the man's warm embrace, calling out, "Little Linlin."

From the moment they came into contact, Yan Xiaoxi had smelled Nangong Lin's faint musky scent. It was a scent unique to him that made her immediately confirm his identity.

In the Southern Water Country, other than Nangong Lin, she did not know anyone else.

Presumably, no one would risk their life to save Nangong Zhen.

"Women are really disobedient." When Nangong Lin woke up in the middle of the night, he realized that the person beside him was not here. He immediately thought that this disobedient woman must have gone to the treasury.

When he rushed to the treasury, he didn't find any trace of Yan Xiaoxi. At this moment, he noticed the movements of the guards and guessed that she might have been discovered.

He truly did not know the heights of heaven and earth. In the future, what kind of place was the Southern Water Kingdom's Imperial Palace? How could he barge in so casually?

"Thank you, Little Linlin." Yan Xiaoxi pouted her red lips, her face filled with grievance.
