Shangguan Xin brought Shangguan He to the palace to look for the Third Prince. As Shangguan Xin and the Third Prince were often together, everyone knew each other and quickly saw Third Prince Baili Shishang.
”Greetings, Your Highness. I, my younger brother, have something to ask of you.” Shangguan Xin knew that his brother was anxious, so he did not exchange pleasantries with Baili Shishang and directly stated his purpose of coming.
”Oh? ”What is it?” Baili Shishang looked up at Shangguan He.
Today, Shangguan He didn't have a very good appearance. A few strands of his hair had fallen down and hadn't been combed properly. Even his usually elegant pink clothes were wrinkled and stained.
”Your Highness, I wish to enter Celestial Prison to see Yuwen Xi, I hope that Your Highness can help me.” Shangguan He knelt down towards Baili Shishang, who immediately extended his hand to hold him back, ”No need for such a courtesy.”
”I wonder if the Royal Father has any orders, I'll bring you in and give it a try. If you can enter, that would be for the best, but if you can't, there's nothing I can do.”
Regarding Yuwen Xi, Baili Shishang had long heard about it, but he did not have much movements, and currently, Baili Tangzhi was still unconscious. Yuwen Xi basically did not have any means of survival, and felt that it was a pity that she died like that, but regarding this kind of thing, he could not say anything, as Baili Tangzhi had not yet awakened.
He never thought that Yuwen Xi would have such guts to make a move against him, and almost kill him on the spot. She was truly an interesting person.
If Shangguan He had a way to save Yuwen Xi, it would be helpful.
With Baili Shishang leading the way, it was much more convenient to enter Celestial Prison.
When Shangguan He entered, he saw Yuwen Xi who was hiding in a corner, her eyes immediately turned red.
”Little Sister Xi Er, Little Sister Xi Er.” Shangguan He shouted at Yuwen Xi through the prison door.
Yuwen Xi, who was still in a daze, heard Shangguan He's voice. She thought it was just an illusion and didn't pay attention to him, but after hearing a few more sounds, she immediately raised her head, and saw Shangguan He who was outside. She was so excited that she immediately stood up, but because she got up too fiercely, her vision darkened and she almost fell down.
”Shangguan He, I thought I was dreaming. You really came to see me, how nice.” Yuwen Xi walked forward and leaned on the prison door as she looked at Shangguan He. She felt wronged and wanted to cry, but Shangguan He was not the only one who came along. She didn't want to cry in front of them, so she could only endure it.
”Why does your face look so bad?” Is it cold? This is my cloak, here you are. ” Shangguan She stuffed his big cape in, but Yuwen Xi only felt that it was very warm when she held it in her hand.
I thought I wouldn't be able to see him until after she died, but he came to see her, Shangguan He, thank you.
”What are you standing there for? Put it on quickly, do you dislike me wearing it? ” Shangguan He noticed that Yuwen Xi's eyes were red, and could only say something else to adjust the atmosphere. Now that there was someone else present, she didn't have much emotion.
”Hm, I loathe it. I loathe it to death.”
Yuwen Xi wrinkled her nose, but quickly put on the cape. It was so warm, it could even cover her entire person.
Baili Shishang was a little surprised when he saw this kind of Yuwen Xi. The Yuwen Xi he saw was always cold and distant, not this kind of delicate look that a little girl would have. It seemed like her relationship with Shangguan He was very good.
”Why is it so hot?” Shangguan He touched Yuwen Xi's forehead and felt that it was very hot.
”Fever, my voice is already like that. I feel like I'm going to die before the emperor can even look at my head. Shangguan He, if I die, you have to burn paper money for me every year.”
”What nonsense are you talking about?” Shangguan He was a little angry.
”Also, you cremated me, sprinkled some of my ashes on the place where First Prince slept at, and that's enough. I won't bear to part with more and then turn into a ghost and kill him!”
Yuwen Xi clenched her teeth as she spoke, but the heavy nasal voice did not sound fierce, and was actually quite interesting.
”If you keep talking, I'll ignore you.” Shangguan He extended his hand and poked Yuwen Xi's head. He was really going to die from anger, how could he curse himself to such an extent? He still wanted to cremate her? That's right, he was probably going to die because he was angered to death by this silly girl.
He stared at Yuwen Xi, and when he saw that she had shut her mouth, he asked: ”Tell me about what happened on that day?”
Yuwen Xi glanced at Baili Shishang, and when Baili Shishang saw her smile, he did not have any intention to leave. He was the one who brought his here, how could he throw him away after using him up?
He didn't know why this little girl was so hostile towards him, but he was very puzzled.
”Although I don't think that you have much of a chance of saving me, I still need to tell you that in this world, there must be more than just one person who knows the truth.”
She organized her words and described what had happened that day, but left out the important parts that should be omitted. Shangguan He listened to her, and his face turned pale. He punched the wooden log, saying with hatred, ”We should kill him, this beast!”
”Don't be rash, it's enough for me to be locked in here by myself. Don't come in here to join in on the fun.”
