Yan Muxi no longer doubted Yu Jinzhou's words. He walked to a haystack not far away and sat down. He lowered his voice and asked, "If the Third Prince helps me against the emperor's will, will the emperor punish you?"
Yu Jinzhou pretended to be relaxed and smiled, "It's okay, I am the biological son of the emperor. Even if the emperor doesn't value me, he will never take my life. Afterwards, I was just scolded."
"Because of our Rong Palace, it is really difficult for Your Highness." Yan Muxi was full of guilt.
"Don't worry. Compared to Uncle Wang's support for Jinzhou over the years, what Jinzhou is doing now is nothing. Aunt Wang, don't feel guilty. Everything is what Jinzhou should do."
Facing Yu Jinzhou's determined eyes, Yan Muxi sighed, "In the current situation, I will no longer be hypocritical and say things against my will because I don't want to drag down His Highness. I wonder how the Third Prince plans to help me escape, and do you have any specific rules?"
"No hurry. I'll tell Aunt Wang in detail later." Yu Jinzhou stood up and walked to the simple stove made of stones. He pulled out two daggers from his waist, used the blades to lift the iron pot and placed it on the open space beside him. He then took the gourd ladle beside him and fished the pheasant eggs out of the boiling water.
As a prince of the royal family, he was surprisingly skilled in carrying the pot and taking the eggs.
After the pheasant eggs cooled down a bit, Yu Jinzhou took one and handed it to Yan Muxi, "Aunt Wang, eat an egg first to fill your stomach. We can talk about other things after you have filled your stomach."
The egg was handed to her. Yan Muxi subconsciously reached out to take it, but she didn't expect that the egg was still very hot after cooling down. "Ah~" she exclaimed, and quickly put her scalding fingers on her earlobes to cool them down.
"Puchi~" Yu Jinzhou was amused by her cuteness and deliberately covered the egg with his palm. "It's not hot. It may be because Aunt Wang's skin is too delicate."
Not sure if it was because of the heat or shyness, but Yan Muxi's face was flushed with pink. Her watery eyes were filled with tears. She glared at Yu Jinzhou in an unpleasant manner.
"When did the Third Prince become so disrespectful to his elders that he even framed Aunt Wang."
In the reflection of the firelight, the sparkling eyes with a mixture of anger and smile seemed to contain a clear spring. Yu Jinzhou's heart skipped a beat and he couldn't take his eyes away for a long time.
It was not until Yan Muxi coughed lightly to remind him that he awkwardly withdrew his gaze, "I'm afraid the egg won't cool down in a short time, I'd better put it in cold water to cool it down!"
"Okay~" Yan Muxi lowered her eyes as if shy, and lowered her head, not daring to look around.
After a short while, Yu Jinzhou handed the cooled egg to Yan Muxi again. After such a short while, his expression had returned to its previous frank and honest expression.
There were five pheasant eggs in total. Yan Muxi ate three and forced the remaining two back into Yu Jinzhou's hands.
"There is no hot food to eat in the deep mountains and forests, so Your Highness should eat two to fill your stomach."
Yu Jinzhou refused to take it, and stuffed the egg back to her, "It's not easy to find a few eggs, Jinzhou can eat dry food, Aunt Wang can keep it!"
"Then I'll keep one and Your Highness can eat one." Yan Muxi looked at him with shame in his eyes, as if he felt very sorry.
Yu Jinzhou smiled helplessly, took the egg, peeled it, and put the whole egg into his mouth.
After chewing the egg in his mouth and swallowing it, Yu Jinzhou took the initiative to talk about his next plans without waiting for Yan Muxi to ask.
Emperor Yuanjing's order was to capture Yan Muxi alive without harming her life. Once she was caught, she would be brought back to the palace and imprisoned in a low-key manner.
If Yan Muxi entered the palace, it would be extremely difficult for her to escape, so she had to escape before entering the palace.
Yu Jinzhou's plan was to do something tricky along the way, using special methods to replace her.
Yan Muxi did not ask how Yu Jinzhou planned to replace her, but asked, "What happens after I am replaced? Does the Third Prince have any specific arrangements?"
"After this, Aunt Wang will have to endure it for a while. She should go to a remote farm or a nunnery to hide, and then plan for the future after the storm has died down." Yu Jinzhou explained in a gentle voice.
Yan Muxi nodded to show that she understood. After a moment of silence, she said with gratitude, "I am grateful for your kindness. When I have the chance in the future, I will definitely repay the Third Prince for his selfless help today."
Yu Jinzhou's cheeks turned slightly red. "Aunt Wang, please don't make me feel embarrassed. It's getting late. Aunt Wang, please take a rest on the haystack. We will set off after daybreak." After saying that, he hurried out of the cave, as if he was afraid that Yan Muxi would see his embarrassment.
There was complete silence and only a torch was left to illuminate the cave. Yan Muxi lay on his side in the haystack, watching the fire in the stone stove slowly die out, then he closed his eyes and gradually fell asleep.
Outside the cave, the man in black checked Yu Jinzhou's body and limbs, and took his pulse. "Your Highness shows no signs of poisoning."
"Have you examined it carefully?" Yu Jinzhou looked towards the direction of the cave entrance with a deep gaze.
His Aunt Wang was a very cunning person and would never believe his flawed story.
"I have checked carefully, and Your Highness does not show any signs of poisoning."
"I understand, please step back!"
Yu Jinzhou stood up and went back to the cave entrance. He listened to the soft and steady breathing inside and thought that Yan Muxi should be asleep, so he walked in lightly.
The lights were dim, and the beauty I thought about day and night was lying there quietly, with black hair, snow-white skin, a delicate nose, red lips, and a graceful figure. She was so beautiful that she looked like a fairy in a painting.
He couldn't help but move his feet lightly, slowly approaching the beauty, squatting down, and reaching out to touch the cheek he had been thinking about for a long time.
"Hmm~" Yan Muxi moaned, her eyebrows furrowed, and she raised her hand to wipe away the itch on her face, but she felt a touch of warmth, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly like wings.
Yu Jinzhou thought she was about to wake up and was about to pull his hand away to escape, but she murmured, "Husband, don't leave me~" Then she closed her red lips and fell asleep again, and her breathing became steady and long again.
His fingers were tightly grasped by the soft little hand. Yu Jinzhou subconsciously wanted to pull his hand away, but looking at the face of Furong that he had been thinking about day and night and smelling the refreshing fragrance, his movements were completely out of control.
He leaned over, put his nose close to the soft hand holding his hand, and held the pink and white fingertips, sniffing gently, then putting it into his mouth and sucking greedily...
The moment before his brain lost the ability to think, Yu Jinzhou's mind was full of - Aunt Wang smelled so good, even better than he had imagined in his dreams, he must get her and hold her tightly by his side.
Realizing that there was no movement beside him, Yan Muxi opened his eyes, his eyes were clear without any sleepiness.
She smeared drugs on her body to induce men's passion. If Yu Jinzhou had no interest in her, he would not have any reaction. If he did, he would definitely do something presumptuous and would naturally fall into the trap and be poisoned.
After taking a look outside the cave and making sure that no one was following her, she quickly took out the dagger from Yu Jinzhou's waist and put it to his throat before she dared to check his clothes.
When Yan Muxi saw the black coral beads hidden under Yu Jinzhou's sleeve and the colorful beads worn on his other wrist, she froze in place.
Memories came flooding back like a tide. When she and Yu Wantai got married and entered the palace to recognize their relatives, she gave this string of black coral beads to Yu Jinzhou as a gift, but it was snatched away by the third princess.
Later, the third princess and the second princess died one after another. She and Yan Muqing could not figure out what caused the changes.
Now, the doubts that had been lingering in my mind finally found an answer. The third princess's pearl necklace returned to Yu Jinzhou's hands. It was definitely not a coincidence. The reason for the change might be the black coral pearl necklace she gave as a gift.
If her guess was correct, the death of the two princesses might have been just because of a small string of coral beads.
How sad and ironic!
She never imagined that the one who helped Yan Yongchen stir up trouble in the harem was the seemingly inconspicuous third prince Yu Jinzhou.
