The prince disliked her, and the legitimate daughter was reborn and married to the regent

The hoarse and low voice almost startled Yun Nian. She quickly glanced outside and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xiyu had already gone far away.

"Who are you?"

She had never told anyone about the meeting, and apart from Xiyu, no one else would know that she was in Feiyu Tower.

The door was not closed. Yun Nian looked at the pretty "girl" in front of him with some caution, ready to shout for help if she had any ill intentions.

The low, hoarse male voice sounded like a drake's, with the roughness of gravel sliding over rocks, as if it had been destroyed.

"I am a mute slave serving His Royal Highness the Regent in Feiyu Tower. I will do whatever the young lady asks me to do."

The mute slave knelt on one knee and lowered his head. But before he lowered his head, Yun Nian noticed the look on his face as he looked at the jade pendant on his waist.

Was it because of this?

She touched the smooth jade pendant thoughtfully. So, did His Royal Highness the Regent know Xiyu's identity? Did he arrange for someone to pick her up in advance?

Wei Qingjue once said that, except for his subordinates, other people would only think that the jade pendant was an ornament, so the identity of the mute slave should not be false. However, she still had to be cautious.

The girl suddenly revealed a gentle smile, her appearance was outstanding, even more beautiful than the breeze outside the house, even though the mute slave with his head down could not see it.

She spoke in surprise.

"So you are His Highness's man. That's great. Does His Highness have any message for me?"

"This... the king only told his subordinates to swear to protect your safety and act according to circumstances, and he didn't say much else."

The mute slave raised his head and glanced at her.

"Oh, by the way, the king said that you should wait for him."

Wait for him?

Is His Royal Highness the Regent also planning to come to Feiyu Tower? Or is he going to Nanyan in disguise like he did to Dongling?

The power of Feiyu Tower seems to be quite large. If one wants to sneak in, it may not be possible with a simple disguise.

Yun Nian rolled his eyes and asked the mute slave on the ground to stand up.

"Are you the only one His Highness has planted in the building? How long have you been here? How did you get in?"

Although the Regent did ask him to obey her orders as long as the young lady's safety was guaranteed, he would not have told her everything so easily if Yun Nian's tone had not been too bewitching.

From his narration, Yun Nian finally realized that Wei Qingjue had already set his sights on Feiyu Tower when he was still a prince, and the mute slave was also planted there at that time.

"I was indeed mute when I entered the building, but I just didn't like talking and no one wanted to talk to me. In order to complete the task better, I forced myself to speak..."

No wonder the voice is so hoarse,

He scratched his head in embarrassment and refused to tell his name, only saying "Mute Slave" was his name.

In this case, Yun Nian naturally would not force it. The name was just a code name. Calling him Mute Slave would at least prevent Xiyu from noticing anything wrong.

There seemed to be a slight shaking sound on the wooden bridge outside the door. Yun Nian turned his head and the mute slave immediately closed his mouth with a shy smile.

Xiyu's voice sounded when she entered the door.

"Master, I brought you some delicious food."

When his gaze landed on Yun Nian who was still sitting upright, it became burning, so hot that it was hard to ignore. He walked to the table and sat down, holding a huge lunch box in his hand.

The mute slave bowed quietly and began to tidy up the room, listening to the conversation between the two with his ears perked up.

Compared to the gentle and soft voice just now, Yun Nian's voice now seemed to become spoiled and willful.

"Humph, this is not delicious at all. I've already gotten tired of it. Do you think I've never tasted Nanyan's specialties? Didn't you say you were going to the elders to fool me again?"

The girl crossed her arms and looked unreasonable, but even when she was throwing a tantrum, she was coquettish and it was impossible to get angry at her.

In fact, what Xiyu took out were indeed the things she liked when she was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, which was enough to show how much he cared about his master.

"How come, Master?"

He glanced at the mute slave, who tactfully stood outside the door.

"I'm worried that the food here is light and you might not like it, so I thought of having someone prepare Luochuan's delicacies. Once this place is cleaned up, I'll take you to the streets for a stroll."

"As for the elder, he is unimportant. He is just an ignorant and arrogant person."

When he said this, a hint of annoyance quickly welled up in his eyes, but he forced himself to suppress it.

She didn't know whether he was referring to the first elder or the second elder, or both. She didn't ask any more.

She had enough time to understand the crisis hidden in Feiyu Tower and what gave Xiyu the confidence to kidnap her in front of the Regent. She wanted to know all of this.

As for Nanyan's unique porridge and side dishes, they were delivered to her room in the evening.

Because the mute slave was actually a man, she could only bathe and change clothes by herself. Fortunately, she was no longer the spoiled daughter of the prime minister and was used to washing herself.

Xiyu slept in the outer room at night. With her eyes open, she heard the light breathing outside the door.

There are bad people, hypocritical people, and kind people in the world. Xiyu is not one of them. He was so bold as to put a spell on her and break into the palace alone. But now that he is in his own territory, he has become quiet and even restrained himself from touching her.

The person who wants to get her also wants to get her heart.

In the early morning, Yun Nian woke up to a burst of urgent whistles. She stood up, but Xiyu pushed the door open without even saying hello.

"Master, nothing happened, you can continue to rest."

He seemed a little anxious, and was about to leave after saying this.

"Wait, what happened?"

"It's just that someone broke in. I'll deal with it."

Xiyu only left these words, and without waiting for Yunnian to say anything else, she disappeared as soon as the door closed.

There was a noisy sound coming from the left. She got out of bed and walked to the window, then gently opened it a crack.

The sound of the dispute immediately squeezed out from the gap and poured into her ears. In front of the central tower, there were dozens of people standing. There were also assassins stationed on the tower, staring at a figure on the water. No one paid attention to her actions.

"What? Is this Feiyu Tower's way of entertaining guests? I came from afar, not to fight with you."

The voice sounded familiar, but Yun Nian couldn't remember where he had heard it before.

A somewhat hunched figure walked out from the crowd, his voice sounding full of energy.

"You are not a guest if you come uninvited, Urtu. You have overstepped your bounds."

The person on the water turned his head to reveal an alien face.

Yun Nian's heart suddenly tightened and he immediately slid down and squatted on the ground.
