Pretty Consort: Prince, Don't Run away

As Xi Mengyao walked on the street, she felt a sense of unease in her heart.

Why did that person appear within the restaurant? Not only that, he was also wearing a black veil, not wanting others to be able to see his appearance.

Could it be that he was out there, doing something dishonorable?

The more Xi Mengyao thought about it, the stranger it felt. She wanted to turn back, but unfortunately, she had already escaped.

It was late in the night, and there was almost no one on the streets in the middle of the night. Other than the night market, she could barely hear a sound.

Such a person …

Suspicious!

"Who is it?"

Xi Mengyao said as she walked over.

She didn't want to go closer, but found out that it was a drunk man lying on the ground. Seeing that, Xi Mengyao lost all interest, and turned to leave, but the man suddenly sat up, he pointed at her back and shouted: "Who are you!"

Xi Mengyao frowned, she turned and took a look.

She discovered that the clothes worn by this person seemed to be the standard used in the prince's mansion. She felt that it was a bit strange and sized him up again. Only then did she realize that this person was most likely a servant of one of the princes' residences.

Most of the servants in the prince's residence wore silk clothing, especially after autumn. Some of the higher status ones even wore brocade.

This person was dressed in brocade, and there was even a dragon tattoo unique to the imperial family on it. This person seemed to have some background, yet he was here for some unknown reason.

She frowned uncertainly and shook her head when she saw the man coming.

"You don't need to know who I am. It's just that you, as a servant of the Prince's Mansion, are drunk on the streets and are even carelessly criticizing others. If your master were to know about this, I'm afraid that he would drag you back and beat you to death."

Hearing that, the man immediately looked at Xi Mengyao vigilantly.

He took a few more steps forward, "Who exactly are you? How do you know my identity?"

Hearing her words, Xi Mengyao felt that it was weird, seeing that there was no one around, she did not want to cause trouble.

"Just by looking at your clothes, I know that you are quite valuable. You should go back yourself, it would be disgraceful."

With that, Xi Mengyao turned and left.

However, that person actually chased after him, "You're not allowed to leave! If you don't tell me clearly, I won't let you off!"

"You won't let me go?" Xi Mengyao snorted, raised her hand and pointed: "All the people who live on this street are all young officials, you are just a servant, who is the person that you can offend?"

"How dare you thief! How dare you threaten me!"

That person spoke indistinctly, as if he was about to grab her. "If you don't explain clearly, our Prince won't let you off!"

Xi Mengyao felt that it was funny, it was just a drunk man, why did she seem like she owed something? She laughed and said, "If you want to tell me, then go back and tell me. But if you fall drunk in the middle of the night, even if you go back and tell me, would the prince really stand up for you?"

After saying that, she turned around to leave as if she didn't want to argue with him.

He was still complaining in his heart. He didn't know what day it was, to actually meet these drunkards like this.

It seemed that it would be best to find a quiet place to drink, and it would be best to have a close friend.

As she thought about it, Xi Mengyao once again recalled the night banquet at the palace. If not for this incident, Song Chongjing truly deserved to be called a good wine friend.

Thinking about it, Xi Mengyao also shook her head.

She was actually dizzy, so she was walking at a crooked angle. Not long after, she suddenly heard a sound coming from behind her, Xi Mengyao frowned and turned to look, only to realize that the person was crawling and rolling all the way here.

From the looks of it, he had really fallen for her.

Xi Mengyao was helpless, she shook her head and was about to explain to him, but she did not expect the man to wield a dagger and rush straight at her!

Xi Mengyao frowned and turned around to avoid the attack. However, the person was unable to stand steadily and actually directly laid down horizontally.

However, the man stood up again as if he didn't know what was going on with him.

After getting up, he pointed at Xi Mengyao and cursed: "Who exactly are you, you dare to attack me, brat, don't you want to die!"

Hearing this, Xi Mengyao almost vomited blood, she even had the embarrassment to tell him that he fell down herself.

That person also acted like he didn't care about anything and explained nonstop. He grabbed his knife and came over again.

Xi Mengyao sighed, and said loudly: "Beneath the Son of Heaven's feet, you are so impudent, aren't you afraid, that the person standing in front of you today, is the current Emperor?"

Hearing that, the man shivered, then frowned and looked at Xi Mengyao carefully.

"How could you be the Emperor? The Emperor is already over 40 years old!"

After that person saw this, he even replied seriously.

"I'm just giving you an analogy. Are you serious?"

Xi Mengyao yawned, then looked at the man pestering him, and stared at him coldly.

"Fine, I don't want to waste time with you. It's fine to reveal your master's name, but if you don't, then I'll beat your shit out of you. Don't go back and complain."

"Cut the crap!" After hearing that, the man paused for a moment, then looked at the man. His eyes suddenly flashed, and he started to attack.

Xi Mengyao did not dodge, seeing him coming over, she immediately turned to the side and threw a punch on his shoulder. The man grabbed his shoulder and retreated a step, but at that moment, Xi Mengyao raised her leg and kicked her back.

Then, she saw the man fall to the ground. There was a crisp sound, as if something had shattered.

When the man heard the voice, he was shocked, and quickly stood up to touch his own body, but he did not manage to touch anything, and did not care about Xi Mengyao, and went back to look for himself.

While searching along the way, he shouted, "Where is my jade pendant?!"

Xi Mengyao was confused by his actions, she shook her head and turned, wanting to leave.

Unexpectedly, she had only taken two steps when she felt something beneath her feet. Lowering her head, she saw a jade pendant quietly lying under her feet, broken into two pieces.

There was something strange about this. It was only after she picked up the item did she realize that this jade pendant seemed to have some background.

It was not carved with the usual auspicious items such as dragons and phoenixes, but was instead carved with a bloody horned monster with its mouth wide open.

It looked like a unicorn, but it was even more ferocious than a unicorn. Its eyes were big, and its ears were erect. From afar, it looked like an extra stone lion.

This wasn't something they liked, and there seemed to be some words on the jade pendant. Furthermore, these words weren't from Daqing.

It seemed to belong to the nomads of the north.

Xi Mengyao looked again in detail, but was unable to recognize it.
