Chapter 157: CH 157

It was very murky inside the carriage, Xiao Yi Chen leaned over to look at Ji Ling Xue's bright pair of eyes in the dark, the two breathed on each other's faces, it was so quiet they could hear each other's breathing and heartbeat, the atmosphere was ambiguous.

Ji Ling Xue blushed, she felt her mouth and tongue were dry, she swallowed a mouthful of saliva, her mind was blank forgetting what she was thinking about just now.

Xiao Yi Chen lowered his head kissing Ji Ling Xue's red lips, gently holding her in his arms: "Is it because this prince wasn't by your side, you couldn't sleep? Sleep, we need to hasten on our journey tomorrow."

Ji Ling Xue fell silent for a moment then asked: "What did you go to do just now?"

Xiao Yi Chen said: "There are some matters in the capital that this prince has to personally deal with, I was afraid of disturbing you so stepped outside."

Ji Ling Xue gave an oh, eyes looking about she smiled: "We weren't in the prince's residence to see the new year through on new year's eve, those two imperial concubines will bear a grudge towards me, they have always longed for a little affection from prince, sadly...prince, you turn your back on the hearts of beauties."

Xiao Yi Chen's lips twitched, where was the pity in Ji Ling Xue's tone?

Ji Ling Xue turned to look at Xiao Yi Chen, even though she couldn't see anything in the dark, after a while she heard Xiao Yi Chen say: "This prince has given his whole heart to Xue Er, you can't betray this prince."

Ji Ling Xue gave an en, holding Xiao Yi Chen's arm she sunk into deep sleep, seeing Ji Ling Xue sleep peacefully in his arms, Xiao Yi Chen gave a helpless sigh, this woman thinks he wouldn't dare to take her in the carriage, that's why she was so intimate.

The next day the carriage continued on its way, the speed was a lot quicker, today's journey wasn't as peaceful as the day before, first the road was obstructed, Ji Ling Xue and Xiao Yi Chen had to leave the carriage, then they came across an assassination attempt, this wasn't surprising to Xiao Yi Chen, the assassins were dressed like mountain bandits, but their movements were very ruthless, like a certain assassination organisation in the Jianghu.

Xiao Yi Chen fought with Ji Ling Xue on his back, Ji Ling Xue tossed poisonous powder on those assassins from time to time, in less than a quarter of an hour, she poisoned the group of people.

Ji Ling Xue gave the secret guards antidotes, jumping down from Xiao Yi Chen's back, patting her hands she said proudly: "The time it takes for the poison to act is a lot quicker this time, next time I'll make more of this, each of you will have a bag on you as precaution."

Using poison was definitely quicker than using swords to diffuse close combat situations, Xiao Yi Chen nodded in approval, "Then thanks for the hard work princess."

Ji Ling Xue smiled, raising an eyebrow at Xiao Yi Chen, her eyes seemed to say: You know how amazing this princess is, if you bully me one day, you will end up like this.

Xiao Yi Chen raised an eyebrow, he won't let that day come.

The secret guards speedily cleaned up the scene, after a short time not even a trace of blood was on the snow, it was hard to imagine there was an assassination attempt just now, the carriage was restored, Ji Ling Xue and Xiao Yi Chen returned to the carriage and continued their way.

Ji Ling Xue who was bored sitting in the carriage, she would play a few rounds of chess with Xiao Yi Chen, then bored she took a nap, this is how ten days passed, finally they were almost at the border of Dayan, Xiao Yi Chen once again slowed down their speed.

Ji Ling Xue asked: "We're travelling so slowly, are we waiting for someone?"

Xiao Yi Chen: "I already sent a message to Yuchi Ru Ge, he will send someone to welcome us over these next few days."

Ji Ling Xue nodded, Xiao Yi Chen was entering Dayan secretly, it was better for as little people to know as possible, if Yuchi Gong Ru knew they were in Dayan, they would definitely face each other with swords.

After three days, Ji Ling Xue was welcomed by Yuchi Ru Ge personally, even though it was pitch black, under the dim moonlight, Ji Ling Xue saw Yuchi Ru Ge who she had not seen for half a year.

The two looked at each other and smiled, it was considered a greetings.

Yuchi Ru Ge's gaze turned to Xiao Yi Chen, cupping his hands in greetings: "Prince Chen, long time no see, I trust you have been well since we last met."

Xiao Yi Chen smiled, a trace of precaution against a love rival appeared in his eyes, "This prince has been well."

After the two of them exchanged pleasantries, Yuchi Ru Ge got his subordinates to offer two sets of clothes, getting Xiao Yi Chen and Ji Ling Xue to disguise as his personal guards, it was easier to move about in Dayan.

Xiao Yi Chen took the clothes straightaway, entering the carriage with Ji Ling Xue to change, after arranging for his own guards to remain on standby, they entered the city with Yuchi Ru Ge.

Dayan's emperor was critically ill, Yuchi Gong Ru had immediately turned into a filial son and stayed in the palace looking after the old emperor, and wouldn't allow Yuchi Ru Ge to show his filial piety in the palace.

Bai Mo had arrived at Dayan before Xiao Yi Chen, as a miracle doctor, he was in demand no matter where he went, Yuchi Ru Ge took advantage of when Yuchi Gong Ru returned to his residence to rest and took Bai Mo to the palace to take the emperor's pulse.

After a night of treatment the old emperor gradually improved, the next day his mind was a lot clearer and would speak a few words, Yuchi Gong Ru's people in the palace were all removed and replaced by the emperor's trusted people.

Besides Bai Mo looking after him in the palace, Yuchi Ru Ge visited him on time in the morning and evening, not mentioning a single word of the imperial edict in front of the old emperor, avoiding the consequences.

Xiao Yi Chen and Ji Ling Xue was taken into Yuchi Ru Ge's residence, after understanding  the basics of what was happening in Dayan, Yuchi Ru Ge got a meal arranged, allowing Ji Ling Xue and Xiao Yi Chen to rest earlier.

Having travelled in a rush for half a month and not be able to take a proper bath, after seeing Yuchi Ru Ge's residence has a hot spring, she rushed to take a bath in excitement, walking to the entrance of the hot spring, Yuchi Ru Ge was just coming out, the two again met face to face.

Yuchi Ru Ge said: "Is Dayan's food to your taste? It can't compare to Dongqi, and can't compare to Qingfengyashe."

Ji Ling Xue smiled: "Each place has its own speciality, there's no need to compare, oh right, my Qingfengyashe is opening another branch, there's another one in the capital."

Yuchi Ru Ge suddenly remembered when he was the secret guard for Ji Ling Xue, sadly time couldn't go backwards, he could no longer return to that carefree Ru Ge.

Ji Ling Xue fished around in her sleeves, taking out a bottle she gave it to Yuchi Ru Ge, "This is for you."

Yuchi Ru Ge looked at the bottle in Ji Ling Xue's hand, raising an eyebrow he asked: "What is this?"

The bottle itself was ordinary, there was nothing special, it looked like a medicine bottle by its size, but he wasn't ill and didn't need to take medicine.

Ji Ling Xue laughed: "I just invented this, the effects are pretty good, colourless and tasteless, within a quarter of an hour, even an expert would pass out."

Coming to Dayan, living on and eating from someone, she hadn't prepared a present, she could only use her new poison as a gift.

Yuchi Ru Ge smiled, quickly taking the bottle from Ji Ling Xue, "Princess, you give very special presents."

It's heard of for friends to give presents when visiting, but not heard of being given poison, he would remember her in this lifetime.

Ji Ling Xue laughed, then suddenly thought of a question, grimly saying: "Did you leave a letter under my roof tile before you left?"

Yuchi Ru Ge shook his head, writing a letter wasn't his style, he preferred to say things directly.

Ji Ling Xue frowned, Ru Ge hadn't written a letter to her, then where did Ji Yu Qing find out about her background, even getting storytellers to spread stories about her background, if Xiao Yi Chen hadn't stopped her in time, if the emperor Xiao Yi Mo heard, she would have to step down, it was such a malicious plot.

Yuchi Ru Ge said: "What happened?" Did he cause trouble for Ji Ling Xue when he left?

Ji Ling Xue said: "Can you help me investigate what happened when Liu Mei E came to Dayan twenty years ago?"

Yuchi Ru Ge nodded, "Fine, I'll get someone to investigate right away, there'll be a result in two days time, it's already late, you should rest soon."

Ji Ling Xue nodded, after seeing Yuchi Ru Ge off with her eyes, she then turned and pushed open the door into the hot spring, her whole body was soaked in the warm water, Ji Ling Xue closed her eyes and leaned on the side of the pool in comfort, she fell asleep without noticing.

"Dongdongdong..." It was the sound of a drum-shaped rattle, a beautiful woman was holding a baby in one hand, the other hand moving the drum to play with the baby who had just woken up, "Xue Er, smile..."

Ji Ling Xue's memory of her mother's face was rather hazy, she also rarely dreamed about her, maybe because she was in Dayan, her dreams seemed to be clearer, the beautiful woman's face gradually became clearer, it was a face that looked like hers, the beautiful woman wore a blue dress with white flowers, a simple hairdo, love visible on her face.

"Mother..." Ji Ling Xue reached out a hand, wanting to touch the beautiful woman's face, suddenly her body fell forward, beneath her was actually moving water.

Her nose and ears filled with water, in the haze she heard a cold laugh: "Drown this vixen, I'm the daughter of the first wife, princess Chen ought to be me, you stole my prince Chen."

Ji Ling Xue struggled, her head however felt heavy, suddenly a strong pair of arms lifted her up, splashing water was heard, her body was turned over, large hands slapped her cheeks, shouting her name.

The next moment Ji Ling Xue felt warmth entering her from her wrist, the water in her stomach was forced out, Ji Ling Xue looked at the person with unfocused eyes, in the mist a figure gradually appeared, Xiao Yi Chen's face entered her sight.

"Prince!" Ji Ling Xue's voice was rather hoarse.

Xiao Yi Chen gave an en, patting her back in distain, "You made yourself faint soaking in a pool, if this prince didn't come, your corpse would have sunk to the bottom of the hot spring."

Ji Ling Xue hugged Xiao Yi Chen, sighing: "Didn't you save me from the gates of hell! Why are you saying such nonsense, with you here, what can happen to me?"

Watching Ji Ling Xue tug on his arm cutely, Xiao Yi Chen tight frown didn't loosen, he stooped over and carried Ji Ling Xue out of the hot spring, picking up the clothes he put them on Ji Ling Xue properly then carried her back to the room.

Seeing Xiao Yi Chen hadn't stopped frowning, she knew Xiao Yi Chen was angry, Ji Ling Xue felt rather flustered, leaning towards his face she fawned over him, "Prince, are you angry?"

Xiao Yi Chen turned over with his back to Ji Ling Xue ignoring her, Ji Ling Xue reached out a finger and poked his back: "Don't be angry ok? I promise there won't be a next time."

Xiao Yi Chen still didn't speak, Ji Ling Xue hugged Xiao Yi Chen's waist, putting her face against his back: "I fell asleep in the hot spring just now, I actually dreamt of my mother...don't you think it's strange, she had left when I was very young, ever since I've become conscience of things, I've never seen  her face..."

Xiao Yi Chen slowly turned to look at Ji Ling Xue behind him, a layer of mist was already over her eyes, like an injured little rabbit, he had never seen Ji Ling Xue look so frail and helpless.
