Chapter 522: His Thoughtfulness
I've thought it over.""You should know, being close to power is like walking with a tiger, especially now that you're entering the court. The emperor is a madman, and if you make even a small mistake,...Foler, seeing An Xuetang frown, hurriedly explained for fear she would worry:
"My queen, please don't worry. Xunluo and Shou'er, along with Kang'er, are all highly skilled martial artists. They are more than capable and nothing will happen to them."
An Xuetang pursed her lips, "But they're already almost two days behind us. According to our predictions, they should have arrived last night."
Foler and Ning'er looked at each other. To be honest, the two of them also knew this point, so they were a little worried in their hearts.
But this time it wasn't just Shouer and Kang'er, following them was also Xunluo. Xunluo's skills were on par with Fu'er's. Unless they truly encountered a formidable opponent, ordinary people would be helpless against the three of them.
Ninger handed An Xuetang a towel as she said, "Your Highness, neither I nor Fu'er received any distress signals, so they should be fine. If something really happened, Shou'er would definitely find a way to notify the people in the valley."
An Xuetang pursed her lips. She wanted to say something more when she seemed to hear something in her ear. Upon closer inspection, An Xuetang's eyes lit up because she heard the voice of Xunluo. In the next instant, she didn't say a word and rushed out.
Fu'er and Ning'er looked at each other in confusion. They had no idea what was going on, so they hurried to follow An Xue Tang outside.
The three of them had just run into the courtyard when they saw Xunluo and Shou'er and Kang'er appear outside.
Seeing An Xue Tang dressed in thin clothes, Xun Luo and Yun Liu beside her immediately bowed their heads and stepped back. While Shou'er and Kang'er quickly stepped forward, both bowing to An Xue Tang.
"Get up."
An Xuetang walked over and helped the two people up, "Are you hurt"
Shou'er shook her head, "Reporting to the Princess Consort, none of us were injured, and the Prince's arm is fine. This servant has had General Yun Si collect the Prince's arm. Princess Consort, please do not worry."
"I'm relieved to hear you're alright. What happened on the road"
At this, Kang'er gave a slight nod. "Returning to the Princess Consort, we encountered an ambush set by Xi Zi Pan'er's people. Fortunately, Princess Xi Zi Ke'er sent many soldiers over to rescue us in time, allowing us to arrive so quickly."
An Xuetang narrowed her eyes slightly and said with an unclear meaning, "It's this Xi Zi Panger again. This concubine remembers her!"
Ninger now bowed her hands and softly said, “Your Highness, if there's something, please come inside and talk. It’s cold outside.”
Ning'er wouldn't have mentioned it if it weren't for her reminder, but now she really felt a chill.
After a few people entered the room, Shou'er and Kang'er briefly told them about what they had encountered on their journey.
Xizi Ke'er told them that this road was indeed hidden, but Xizi Pan'er also knew about this road. Xizi Pan'er's people had ambushed many people after they knew they were taking this road to try and seize the prince's arm.
These people couldn't hurt Kang'er and the others, but they did slow down their journey, which led them to arrive much later than expected.
Ning'er looked at the brightness outside and reminded An Xuetang, "Your Highness, it's time to change your clothes and prepare to enter the palace."
"..."
An Xuetang patted her forehead, "My brain, almost forgot, Ajing is still waiting for me, right"
"Yes."
"Change your clothes."
As soon as An Xue Tang finished speaking, Ning'er clapped her hands. Immediately afterward, the door was pushed open by someone, and a group of maidservants brought in a large number of garments and jewelry.
An Xuetang was instantly dumbfounded. She thought the changing clothes would be Ning'er finding her a piece of clothing for her to put on, but she didn't expect these people to bring in so many clothes at once The colorful silks and satins before An Xuetang made her raise an eyebrow.
The main point is that these clothes are very well-made and of excellent quality. To be honest, she had never touched such high-quality fabric before.
A woman's nature is to love beautiful clothing and jewelry, so when An Xue Tang saw these things brought in, she was indeed happy. But... it's fine for one or two sets, but why did they bring in over a dozen all at once
And the jewelry held by the maidservants, a tray filled with various adornments,
An Xuetang blinked in surprise. These ornaments were just like this earring, she would wear a different one every day, she estimated that she wouldn't be able to wear them all even in a year!
"This..." An Xuetang looked at Ning'er, "Ning'er, what's going on"
Ning'er curled the corner of her lips into a slight smile. "Your Highness, these were all prepared by the Duke."
"The jewelry is well-prepared, these clothes are all my size, and the workmanship is so fine, what would it take to start preparing for this"
According to the four Cloud Generals, when His Royal Highness returned to the capital, he had already instructed them to find the best female workers in the city to make these clothes for Your Highness.
Hearing that Mo Yunjing had already arranged all these things for her, An Xuetang couldn't help but wear a wry smile.
"Ajing doesn't seem like the type of person who would meddle in such backyard affairs."
Fu’er and the other maids exchanged glances. Fu’er smiled, her lips curving upward, "Your Highness, don't you know Perhaps the Duke doesn't care about affairs in the inner courtyard, but whenever anything concerns Your Highness, how could he possibly not be concerned The Duke's feelings for you, we servants see them with our own eyes."
An Xuetang shook her head and chuckled. Of course, she knew that her Ah Jing was extremely attentive to her. At this moment, a warmth filled her heart.
She didn't delay any longer. She let Ning'er choose a set of clothing in the same color scheme as Mo Yunjing's outfit today. After changing, Fu'er put on jewelry and a crown for her.
Such dressing really made An Xuetang very uncomfortable. With a heavy headdress on her head, accessories on her neck and hands, in her view, she felt weighed down by all the adornments.
However, in order not to disgrace the position of the Northern Frontier Princess, she could only endure it!
In no time, the four servants had dressed her according to the standard of a princess from Beijiang.
An Xuetang looked at herself in the bronze mirror, adorned in fine clothes and elaborate makeup, appearing quite grand. However, she still felt a certain degree of inconvenience in her movements.
"Fu'er, looking at An Xuetang with a smile,"Your Highness, how is it Are you satisfied with our craftsmanship"
Before An Xue Tang could speak, Ning'er rolled her eyes at Fu Er and said in a bad tone, “What skills do you have The Princess is incredibly beautiful on her own. These outer garments and jewelry were prepared by the Prince. What can you possibly contribute”
Ning'er's unceremonious words caused An Xue Tang and the others to burst into laughter.
The sound of laughter and chatter from inside reached Mo Yunjing's ears as he just stepped outside the door. The frown on his face instantly relaxed, and the corner of his mouth curved into a faint smile as if infected.
Mo Yunjing cleared his throat, and An Xuetang and the others in the room instinctively looked at each other. They didn't need to say anything; they already knew that Mo Yunjing was back.
Ning'er and the others went to open the door, inviting Mo Yunjing inside. They tactfully retreated and closed the door behind them.
Seeing An Xuetang dressed in such grandeur, Mo Yunjing simply stood there watching her. His dark, deep pupils shone like a starlit sea.the Emperor's hands.So, it's understandable that the Prince sought death. After all, with his intelligence and acumen, he could have foreseen all the unfolding events.He had attempted suicide in priso...
