Dress up as a sickly person to capture the villain princess!

Holding a small brocade box in her arms.

Zhao Mingtai looked timidly at the palace maid who was leading him forward.

It was not until the wooden door was pushed open that Zhao Mingtai saw Xia Zhiyuan holding a book, and his eyes lit up.

There is some expectation.

"Sister, are you the Master His Majesty is talking about?"

What she held in her arms was a gift for the Master, which she had carefully prepared for a long time.

Unexpectedly, it was the sister I saw last time.

Your Highness really brought the child here.

Do you want me to leave the imperial city?

"Yes."

"Did His Majesty ask you to come here?"

Putting down the book in her hand, Xia Zhiyuan sat up from the chair. She smiled and waved to Zhao Mingtai.

Signaled Zhao Mingtai to come over.

At least this child is quite sensible. He doesn't make noise, cry or make a fuss.

Xia Zhiyuan felt that she could still tolerate it, but if they continued to make noise and make a fuss, she would just beat them out with a boot.

"Yes, His Majesty sent me here."

"I originally thought that the Master was a very fierce person, but now it seems... Mingtai was worrying too much."

"Master is not fierce at all."

"It's even...pretty."

Her little mouth spoke pleasantly. Xia Zhiyuan narrowed his eyes and reluctantly accepted her words.

"is it?"

Xia Zhiyuan's fingers fell on Zhao Mingtai's cheek. She had a lot of thoughts in her mind, but the strength of her fingertips was very gentle.

"Yes, Master, you are the most handsome man I have ever seen!"

What Zhao Mingtai said was from the heart. There seemed to be a moon in her eyes, which made Xia Zhiyuan smile uncontrollably.

"What about me?"

Footsteps were heard behind her and Zhao Changlin walked in. Ever since Zhiyuan came back from the canal, she had a lot more smiles on her face.

It is no longer as obscure as before.

Hearing Zhao Changlin's voice, Zhao Mingtai turned around and saw Zhao Changlin's eyes.

She is tall and slender, and it is already early summer.

Zhao Changlin held a pink lotus flower in her hand, and the emerald lotus leaves made her look a bit like a young person.

There were some water droplets on the fair wrists. It was obvious that they were the traces left by His Highness when he went to pick lotus flowers just now.

She walked to the white jade vase and saw that the water inside was still clear, so she put the lotus flower in her hand into it.

"Picking flowers again?"

"If Zhiyuan were a lotus, she would probably be so scared that her belly would lift up when she saw your Highness's appearance."

Her words reminded Zhao Changlin of the breeze blowing, the green lotus leaves connected into one, and the back of the lotus leaves turned slightly white.

It's like the pale sky.

In early summer, the weather starts to get hot and humid.

But people’s hearts are not as gloomy as they are in winter.

"I'm asking her, Zhiyuan, why is she so good at being a good boy after getting the advantage?"

Zhao Changlin placed the lotus flower facing Xia Zhiyuan and smiled.

At this moment.

Di Ping walked in first.

"Your Majesty, I have something important to report."

She knelt on one knee and presented it with both hands, and an ancient bronze mirror appeared in front of everyone.

Zhao Changlin sat next to Xia Zhiyuan, took the handkerchief handed to him by Xia Zhiyuan, and carefully wiped the water droplets on his wrist.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Di Ping continued speaking only after hearing His Majesty's voice.

"Your Majesty, I discovered that... there was something wrong with Gu Zhao in prison."

"So, I investigated him for several days, and sure enough, I made a discovery."

"He often talks to this mirror, and his words are incoherent and messy."

Hearing her say this, Zhao Changlin became interested and looked up at the ancient bronze mirror.

"The workmanship of this mirror... looks like an old item from the previous dynasty, not a decoration that Daliang likes to use."

Just a quick glance.

Zhao Changlin recognized the identity of the mirror.

"Yes."

"Your Majesty, please take a look."

Di Ping handed over the mirror.

The object in his hand felt heavy. Zhao Changlin didn't notice anything different, but he felt that his face in the mirror was a little blurry.

"Your Majesty, can you let Zhiyuan take a look?"

Xia Zhiyuan stretched out his hand and took the mirror.

At this moment, the system in my mind emitted a sharp alarm.

"Host—Host, be careful!"

"Unknown creatures detected... Unknown creatures..."

The intermittent sound of the system made Xia Zhiyuan stunned for a moment, until the moment his white fingertips touched the handle of the mirror.

Xia Zhiyuan saw a ball of fictional codes floating past his eyes, and those... were all words from the book.

One word at a time, and punctuation marks.

"Dear host, what do you need?"

The two overlapping sounds gave Xia Zhiyuan a splitting headache, and he almost couldn't hold the ancient bronze mirror in his hand.

She looked pale.

Zhao Changlin was the first to react. He snatched the mirror and put it aside.

She touched Xia Zhiyuan's cheek with her slightly wet palm, and there was undisguised worry in her eyes.

“Ji Won…Ji Won…don’t sleep!”

Not caring about anything else at the moment, Zhao Changlin hugged Xia Zhiyuan in his arms. She was confused and wondered if Gu Zhao had done anything to the mirror.

This is what led to Zhiyuan's current state.

Feeling the warmth of His Highness' body, Xia Zhiyuan finally had time to take a breath. She only felt that the dizziness in her mind at that moment was much less.

——However, a guess soon became clear in her mind.

It seems that the bronze mirror in front of me is indeed the colleague that the system told me about, the one that had lost contact with me.

Can't go wrong.

"Your Highness...Ji Won is fine."

Xia Zhiyuan let out a long sigh, rested his chin on Zhao Changlin's shoulder, and put his arms around Zhao Changlin's waist.

"Your Highness, don't worry... Zhiyuan is really fine."

"This mirror, Your Highness...can you let Zhiyuan take it back?"

Her eyes were still fixed on the bronze mirror that Zhao Changlin had casually placed on the table, and she felt as if her heart was being scratched by a cat.

Want to find out.

Hearing that she was still willing to take risks, Zhao Changlin subconsciously wanted to refuse.

But then I thought, the matter involved in this mirror is related to Zhiyuan, and Zhiyuan has the right to know the truth of the matter.

And I shouldn't have tried to dissuade him too much.

However, the risks of this mirror are still unknown.

Just a quick glance at him and Zhiyuan's face looked so pale, how could she feel at ease?

"Your Highness, do you agree...?"

"Then... Zhiyuan won't mention this matter anymore."

Use retreat to advance.

Xia Zhiyuan knew that His Highness could not stand this trick of his. Even though His Highness knew that he was playing a trick, he would still agree to it.

"Forget it, since Zhiyuan wants to see it."

"I agree... but there is one thing... Zhiyuan must agree to me."

Hearing Zhao Changlin say this, Xia Zhiyuan nodded slightly.

"Well, Zhiyuan agrees to whatever your highness says."

"Okay?"
