Chapter 158: CH 158

Xiao Yi Chen gathered Ji Ling Xue in his arms in heartache, saying softly: "Don't be sad, you have me." I am your husband, your closest relative, the person you will rely on for the rest of your life.

Ji Ling Xue lowered her head borrowing into Xiao Yi Chen's arms: "Do you know, my mother looks a lot like me...at least seventy percent...before Ji Yu Qing had spread the rumour my mother had once eloped with someone to Dayan, now that we're here, I want to thoroughly investigate this."

Maybe because Ji Ling Xue's teary eyes were so lovingly pitiful at this moment, Xiao Yi Chen's heart was moved, telling her what he knew: "This prince knows a bit."

Ji Ling Xue looked at Xiao Yi Chen with wide eyes, waiting for him to continue speaking.

Xiao Yi Chen continued: "That day we left the capital, Yi Yun sent someone to deliver a note, your background was written on it, this prince didn't tell you before it was properly looked into."

Ji Ling Xue frowned, "Yi Yun?" This woman really was well connected in the capital, outwardly gentle and friendly, on the inside she was actually investigating me, it seems she was very interested in the rumour that princess Chen was an illegitimate child, even though this rumour was stifled by Xiao Yi Chen, people who wanted to could still make use of it, using this opportunity to write an essay.

ao Yi Chen said: "That's right, Yi Yun's older cousin is a merchant, he recently made a silk business in Dayan, twenty years ago, your mother Liu Mei E did indeed come to Dayan, only twenty years have passed, most of the people who knew the details of Liu Mei E eloping had already been dealt with by your grandfather, Yi Yun's older cousin only found out a little about your mother by showing a painting of you to a silversmith, that silversmith recalls, twenty years ago Liu Mei E came to his store for a custom made longevity locket and a silver hairpin, a handsome young man had been by her side then, the two looked very much in love, the silversmith made the longevity locket and hairpin but no matter how long he waited Liu Mei E and that young man didn't appear, later his lease ended, he could only move, but from time to time he would come back to his previous store, after all Liu Mei E had made an advance payment, honesty is needed in business."

Ji Ling Xue grabbed Xiao Yi Chen's arm asking: "Did Yi Yun tell you this?"

"The slip Yi Yun gave this prince only said about your background, this prince got the secret guards to come investigate in Dayan first, but Yi Yun's cousin had very quickly taken the silversmith out of Dayan, this prince has sent someone to go after them, don't worry, in two days they will be brought back."

Ji Lign Xue nodded, the truth under layers of dust could finally slowly be cleared off after so many years, she couldn't just wildly guess, laying on Xiao Yi Chen's arm, Ji Ling Xue didn't sleep well, she had a chaotic dream, but after waking up she couldn't remember what happened.

With a headache, she rubbed her temple, Ji Ling Xue got up and dressed, Xiao Yi Chen carried a tray into the room, smiling: "Ru Ge got someone to make two human masks for us overnight, come, see if it fits." As he spoke he picked up a mask from the tray and passed it to Ji Ling Xue.

Ji Ling Xue took it and looked it over carefully, Xiao Yi Chen had put on his mask, his refined features were covered up, becoming a darker squared face, this face was extremely normal in a crowd, you wouldn't want to look at him twice.

Ji Ling Xue grinned, she didn't think there would be a day where Xiao Yi Chen would be so common, but his whole mannerism, he didn't seem like a bodyguard at all.

Xiao Yi Chen raised an eyebrow asking: "Why are you smiling?"

Ji Ling Xue shook her head, immediately putting the mask on, turning she found a bronze mirror to look at, this mask only altered her features, no one would think she was a woman at a glance.

Ji Ling Xue then touched her face, the mask was very meticulous, it really was good.

"Let's go." Xiao Yi Chen's large hand was placed on Ji Ling Xue's shoulder, pulling her outside, not allowing her more time to look into the mirror.

A maid showed them the way as soon as they stepped out, taking them to the reception pavilion, Ru Ge wearing a black brocade outfit was already sitting there, tableware and dishes were placed on the table in front of him, steam coming from them.

Hearing footsteps, Ru Ge raised his head to look at Ji Ling Xue he smiled and asked: "Did you sleep well last night, I heard from a guard princess fainted in the hot spring while taking a bath, this prince has already sent people to investigate, an explanation will be given to princess."

Ji Ling Xue's face turned red, news travelled around this residence quickly, such an embarrassing accident actually made Ru Ge concern.

Ji Ling Xue hurriedly said: "There's no need, I was only tired from travelling these last few days, there's no need to trouble you."

Ru Ge's face still showed concern, he still felt it wasn't a coincidence that Ji Ling Xue would faint in the hot spring, the timing was too perfect, there couldn't be any mistakes.

Dayan and Dongqi's relationship wasn't good, what's more Yuchi Gong Ru had suffered so much in Dayan, if he knew Xiao Yi Chen was at his residence, he would come and seek revenge.

Xiao Yi Chen said: "Prince don't worry, this prince took a look last night, princess really was too tired and fell asleep, it has nothing to do with others."

Ru Ge nodded, smiling: "That's good, quickly sit down and eat together."

After eating breakfast, tea and refreshments were brought over, Ru Ge asked Xiao Yi Chen if he would join them on a walk around.

Xiao Yi Chen looked at Ji Ling Xue asking for her opinion, Ji Ling Xue hurriedly nodded, "Yes, yes." She had just come to Dayan, she was very inquisitive about everything, of course she wanted to see if the streets of Dayan were different from Dongqi.

Ru Ge took the disguised as bodyguards Ji Ling Xue and Xiao Yi Chen out.

Dayan's streets were naturally busy, they produced gems and pearls here, the stall keepers on the streets sold cutting tools embedded with gems, jewellery boxes were also inlayed with gems, even fans, jewellery were also inlayed with gems, so bright Ji Ling Xue couldn't see.

Ji Ling Xue had just picked up a jewellery box inlayed with three colours, red, yellow and blue gems, a cold and faint voice came from behind her, "Imperial brother why do you have the time to take a walk today, and look at things women like, could imperial brother have someone he likes?"

Ji Ling Xue turned her head, as expected she once again met that unpleasant perverted third prince Yuchi Gong Ru.

Yuchi Gong Ru's gaze swept over Ji Ling Xue and Xiao Yi Chen, he was familiar with these two bodyguards, they were Yuchi Ru Ge's personal bodyguards, but for some reason, why these two feel weird today?

Yuchi Gong Ru once again looked over Ji Ling Xue with a sharp gaze, Ji Ling Xue hurried put down the thing in her hand on the table, retreating to behind Ru Ge to quietly observe.

Yuchi Ru Ge smiled: "This prince's private matters shouldn't trouble imperial younger brother, oh right...why does imperial brother have the time to wander about today, emperor father is still ill, you don't want to continue your act as filial son?"

Yuchi Gong Ru gritted his teeth, he could hear the mockery in Yuchi Ru Ge's voice, he couldn't act out under the thousand eyes on the street.

Yuchi Gong Ru said: "Don't misunderstand me imperial brother, emperor father's improvements is mainly thanks to the miracle doctor you invited, the miracle doctor also did his best to treat emperor father, it's almost lantern festival, I came for a walk to see if there was a present appropriate to give to emperor father."

Ru Ge laughed, making a do as you please gesture, turning he left with Ji Ling Xue and Xiao Yi Chen.

Ji Ling Xue didn't know martial arts, if she faced Yuchi Gong Ru head on she would lose.

"Stop!" Yuchi Gong Ru stood in front of Ru Ge, looking at Ji Ling Xue: "Imperial brother, I want to borrow someone from you, you don't mind right?"

Ru Ge frowned: "Imperial brother, when have you lacked subordinates in your residence, why do you need to borrow someone from me?" His tone was that of refusal.

However Yuchi Gong Ru played deaf-mute, pointing at Ji Ling Xue: "Let Ah Sang pick a present with this prince, Ah Sang always had good taste." As he spoke a trace of a smile appeared on his face in mockery.

Ru Ge reached out to stop Yuchi Gong Ru's hand which was pointed at Ji Ling Xue, a warning in his eyes, "I'm afraid not today, imperial brother you see, I only brought two bodyguards out with me today."

Yuchi Gong Ru retracted his hand, smiling: "Fine, then I won't make things difficult for imperial brother, imperial brother stay safe." As he spoke he brushed past Ru Ge, when he passed Ji Ling Xue, he reached out to touch Ji Ling Xue's chest.

Ru Ge and Xiao Yi Chen's eyelids twitched, nervously looking at Ji Ling Xue.

The sword in Xiao Yi Chen's sleeve was unsheathed and fell into his palm, Ru Ge reached out wanting to grab Yuchi Gong Ru's shoulder, the atmosphere was tense all of a sudden, Ji Ling Xue who was the victim smiled, not moving away.

The next moment, Yuchi Gong Ru's hand fell on Ji Ling Xue's shoulder, the two men behind him immediately relaxed, one put away his sword, the other retracted his hand.

Yuchi Gong Ru stared at Ji Ling Xue's eyes and smiled: "Ah Sang, you've been under my imperial brother for more than twenty years, do you want to think of changing masters?"

Ji Ling Xue lowered her eyes, using her long eyelashes to block Yuchi Gong Ru's gaze, she couldn't speak, she would be exposed if she did.

Yuchi Gong Ru was so crafty and devious.

Yuchi Gong Ru laughed: "Hehe, you won't speak, is it because this prince's words have made things awkward for you? Don't worry, there's no harm in saying what one thinks, you have risked your life for imperial brother, I think imperial brother will let you do as you wish."

As Ji Ling Xue was pondering over what to do, Ru Ge slapped Yuchi Gong Ru's hand from her shoulder, "Imperial brother, enough, don't make things difficult for Ah Sang, didn't you say you need to pick a gift for emperor father? It's not early."

Yuchi Gong Ru resentfully retracted his hand, looking at Ji Ling Xue profoundly, he rubbed his chin then swaggered off.

Ji Ling Xue stared at Yuchi Gong Ru's back, turning to look at the pensive Ru Ge: "Did he discover I wasn't Ah Sang?"

Ru Ge smiled: "It doesn't matter if he found out, if he has what it takes he can investigate this prince's residence."

Ji Ling Xue's lips twitched, "He might actually come back."

Xiao Yi Chen eyebrow raised and asked: "You poisoned him?" How did he not notice before?

Ji Ling Xue nodded, wrinkling her nose, "I hate this kind of pervert the most, I'll poison him each time I see him."

Ru Ge rubbed his nose, even though he wanted to ask Ji Ling Xue what poison she used on Yuchi Gong Ru, after all he was his younger brother, it was better to pretend not to have heard.
