Prince, Not Tonight
C116
A wave of warmth rose up in Nan Si Yue's heart — it was like normal people's food, oil, and salt. He had never come into contact with them before, nor did he try to understand them.
But now, listening to the snores of children and the exhortations of his wives, it was as if he could smell the salty smell of the sea. The warmth was so strange that he almost couldn't control himself.
It was a quiet afternoon.
Silent happiness.
And then, the voices of the men came back.
There was another pleasant din.
Everyone was looking forward to the silence of the night, giving this beautiful fishing village a painting with a perfect ending.
However, there was the sound of a sharp knife stabbing into bone and blood.
Everything had changed.
Everything was broken.
The frightened cries of the women, the cries of the children, the shouts of the men, the sound of the blood sputtering, the clashing of the weapons, Ding Ling, all of this rang out with Xu Sisi's rapid thumps like a clap of thunder or a flash of lightning, like the approach of a storm, making one unable to breathe and unable to breathe.
Then, there was another sharp cry.
It was heart-wrenching and lung-splitting.
Silence, a deathly silence.
It was very different from the silence in the afternoon.
The sound of the waves grew louder again, slapping against the rocks.
There were a few faint sounds of sobbing, but before they could be heard, they had already dissipated.
Her performance was over.
Cloudfall put away his prop and looked around to make sure he was safe before taking a step back. He then stood beside Xu Sisi and looked at her steadily.
All of this was just a repeat of the incident in the fishing village.
However, Ye Jia, the one who started it all, didn't feel anything. He was still thinking about his eloquence, and his face was full of praise.
Yun Xu suddenly felt sad.
This matter was an unforgettable pain and nightmare for her.
But for Ye Jia?
Perhaps, it was just a simple 'kill them all' when the old geezer reported to him.
Therefore, she'd put in so much effort and almost lost control during this performance.
He was just enjoying a wonderful show.
"Not bad, not bad." He was the first to clap, and the crowd immediately broke out into scattered applause.
Nan Si Yue did not move. He maintained his original posture, as if he was still immersed in the world just now.
"However, His Highness the Southern King doesn't seem to be laughing." Seeing the expression on Nan Si Yue's face, Ye Jia added harshly.
Yun Fu sighed in his heart, "Nonsense! Such a tragedy in the world, the only one who can still laugh about it is a devil like you."
Of course, she also understood Ye Jia's subtext.
Since the Southern King did not laugh, she should have been pushed out to be fed to the lions.
One smack and two pieces?
It seemed he couldn't get his hands on her. If he rushed from her current position to Ye Jia's throne, she would most likely be chopped into minced meat before she could even get there.
But do nothing and obediently feed the lion?
He would have died a miserable death.
Yun Fei looked at Nan Si Yue hesitantly, hoping that she would say something. However, Nan Si Yue's expression was indifferent, as if she did not intend to speak.
Just as she was about to reveal her identity and ruin, Xu Sisi, who had been silently pondering, suddenly took a step forward. She lifted her head and looked straight at Ye Jia, asking word by word, "You really, don't remember me?"
Ye Jia gave her a baffled look, his eyes innocent and pure.
It was just like the first time Yun Xu saw Ye Jia, he was just like a big child who didn't know what was going on.
In addition to his luxurious black clothes, there were flying dragons and birds embroidered on his collar with needlework. He looked like a big playboy.
"Xu Sisi, it's me." Xu Sisi held back her sobs and continued to stare at Nightingale. She unconsciously moved towards the throne, one step at a time.
Seeing that, the guard standing at the side wanted to go forward to stop her, but Ye Jia waved her hand and stopped him.
"Xu Sisi?" He tilted his head, assuming a pose as he thought about it. His beautiful, picturesque face creased slightly before opening, "Oh, it's Xu Sisi from the Xu Family. This Emperor remembers you."
Xu Sisi's face lit up, as if a drowning person had suddenly grabbed hold of a floating log.
She stopped and looked at Ye Jia with a serious expression.
"If you hadn't suddenly appeared, I wouldn't even remember you." Haven't seen each other in over a year? How is your uncle? " Ye Jia asked heartlessly.
Xu Sisi bit her lower lip and shook her head. "Your majesty doesn't remember Sisi, but Sisi always remembers your majesty — remembers your words."
"My words?" "What did I say?" A certain someone was at a loss.
This expression made Yun Fei want to punch him.
— Of course, if she did, it would be more than one punch.
Xu Sisi clenched the handkerchief in her hands tightly and gritted her teeth. She lowered her head and said word by word, "Your Majesty said that you would come and marry Sisi."
"Is that so? "Then marry her." Ye Jia's big eyes flickered, and after looking around, he stood up and said very casually, "Did you hear that? "Hurry up and get ready, I want to marry this Lady Xu Sisi! — That's the right name, right?"
Everyone fell.
If he were to marry someone like that, it would be better not to!
Xu Sisi was also stunned. It was as if she were a playboy who had finally overcome her fear of playing the stage and made many preparations. In the end, she had put everything on the line to complete an outstanding performance.
As a result, when she appeared, the applause had already filled the entire stadium.
It had nothing to do with her.
"What? Are you unwilling to marry me now?" asked Noguchi, without responsibility.
Xu Sisi had a mournful look on her face. She had always thought that the moment of realization would be a pleasant surprise, but at this moment, aside from grief, there was no other feeling.
"If you change your mind at this moment, I will not make things difficult for you." Seeing her expression, there was no joy in her expression, so she added indifferently.
"Yes." Xu Sisi finally regained her senses. She smiled faintly, and despite the tears in her eyes, she still smiled as she looked at Ye Jia. "Of course I'm willing."
Yun Xu was almost angered to death by her words.
Even though she and Xu Sisi were deep in conversation, under these circumstances, why would she agree to Ye Jia's request?
He knew perfectly well that the person in front of him didn't have her in his heart – Ye Jia was just playing around.
It was just a game, why would he give up his life for it!
Just like that time with Yingying, why were women so silly?
Ye Jia laughed heartily. At this point, the matter was more like a farce. He waved his hand and told those involved to get ready. Then he boasted shamelessly, "It's better if we meet in the future. We should take advantage of the presence of the Southern King to arrange the marriage. Xu... Xu Sisi, right? She will be my Southern Concubine in the future. Southern King, use your name. "
Nan Si Yue replied indifferently, "Congratulations."
"Then the other one is …" Before Ye Jia could finish her sentence, Si Yue stood up and slowly walked off the stage, "This is all that's left, leave His Majesty to me."
Nightingale wanted to say: I'll take this for now.
Listening to oral performances every day seemed to be a good idea as well.
However, since Nan Si Yue had spoken …
Nightingale smiled slyly and looked at the cloud again.
After changing his appearance, Yun Xu was much more exquisite than the original person. Upon closer inspection, he found that she was still a little beauty.
"Why does Nan Si Yue like this type of girl?" It seemed like the wangfei from last time was of the same petite and exquisite type.
However, ever since he had entered the capital, he had not been warm or cold. Now that he was willing to speak up for a little girl, it could be considered a breakthrough.
To be honest, he really could not afford to fall out with the Southern King's Manor.
"Good, everyone is happy. The Southern King can go hide his beauty first. Later, remember to attend my wedding."
With that, he strode toward the back of the hall with the stiff Xu Sisi in tow.
Xu Sisi staggered under his pull. Then, she suddenly turned around and glanced at Yun Fei.
It was still a sorrowful look, but it also had a kind of determination that made Yun Fei unable to speak.
Forget it, forget it.
Their lives, their choices.
But now, listening to the snores of children and the exhortations of his wives, it was as if he could smell the salty smell of the sea. The warmth was so strange that he almost couldn't control himself.
It was a quiet afternoon.
