The Proud Prince and the Arrogant Princess

"Did you see that? Say something! " Xue Lian looked at Xue Shaoli for a long time without saying a word. He felt a little anxious and pushed Xue Shaoli away.

"Above the beam …" "On the house beams..." Xue Shaoli whispered as she left the window, disbelief written all over her face.

Xue Lian looked through the hole into the room again and up the beam! Who would have thought that there was such a thing in the world! There was even a sword stained with blood on the side. Could it be that she chopped that snake to death?

Xue Lian drew fear. She had never thought that Xue Ruyun would not even be afraid of snakes. She was simply not human.

Xue Luoyun, who was lying on the hammock, had long since heard the conversation between the two of them. Apart from disdain, he didn't think much about it. However, if it was them, it would probably be a completely different situation!

Thinking of this, Xue Ruoyun immediately became mischievous. After the two of them left, she picked up the snake head and quickly climbed onto the rooftop. She quickly walked into Xue Lian's painting room and placed the snake head on her table, causing him to quickly return. This movement was extremely fast, and it only happened in an instant.

Xue Lian and Xue Shaoli returned to their respective rooms. Xue Lian was still in a state of shock from what had happened just now. He thought of that precious sword with blood on it. Xue Lian couldn't imagine how bloody the scene at that time was. This Xue Moyan was too difficult to deal with.

Just as he was about to pour some water to drink, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the snake's head on the table.

"Ahh …" Xue Lianshu was so frightened that he retreated continuously and fell on the ground.

Upon hearing this heart-tearing and lung-splitting scream, Xue Ruoyun laughed, turned around, and fell asleep.

Early in the morning, Xue Ruoyun could not sleep. She looked out the window at the sky; it was just dawn. Everyone should still be sleeping soundly at this time of the day.

However, Xue Ruoyun was completely awake and did not feel tired. Thus, he woke up early, and after getting up, he didn't know what to do. He could only wash up, change his clothes, and then look out the window in boredom, thinking about human life.

He didn't know how long it would take to get there. Following the Zhao family along the way, they didn't have much to talk about, nor was there anyone who could chat about life and spar with martial arts.

As Xue Ruoyun thought of this, he thought of Mu Ying. I don't know what he's doing.

It was only after he left that he felt he was so in tune with himself. Although his arrogant and indifferent expression sometimes really deserved a beating, the gentleness in his heart also made people feel warmth.

Xue Luoyun didn't know what sort of feeling this was, but he felt his heart throb. Looking at the fallen flowers by the window, he thought of how his own courtyard was also filled with flowers. In the courtyard, at the mechanisms, Xue Ruoyun once again thought of Mu Ying, and the red lips on his white face slightly curled up. Unknowingly, he revealed a dazzling smile …

Time passed quickly and everyone gradually got out of bed. Xue Luoyun looked through the window at the bustling crowd. He felt depressed about what he should do in the future. When would the bumpy days of hurrying end?

"Are you better, sister?" Xue Shaoli pretended to be concerned about Xue Lian's painting, but she was actually hinting at something.

When they heard Xue Lian's drawing scream last night, everyone rushed to their rooms. However, they only saw Xue Lian painting sitting and reading as if nothing had happened.

"Daughter, what happened to you? Why did you scream just now?" Mrs Zhao asked with concern.

"It's nothing. I just saw a mouse a moment ago, and I've already run away." Xue Lian forcefully pretended to be calm and concealed it. When he saw the snakehead just now, he had nearly scared her senseless. However, he was well aware of this matter. It must have been Xue Luoyun that saw through her trick, so he used the snake head to warn her.

If Xue Duan Sheng and the others saw this, they would definitely order someone to investigate. This investigation was not important, but the shop assistant was unreliable. Xue Lianhua was worried that he would reveal his identity if he were to be timid and reveal everything. That was why he had purposely concealed his identity.

In addition, Xue Lian noticed that a few of the people accompanying them were monitoring them. She wondered if the Emperor had sent them to protect Xue Muyun. If she knew that she framed Xue Ruyun and his little life wasn't saved, she would even implicate her family. So she had to be careful.

Xue Shaoli saw that there was blood on her sleeve and knew a lot of things, but she didn't say anything as it wasn't appropriate to ask directly.

"Poor child, I've wronged you." Mrs Zhao suddenly began to wipe her tears.

"Alright, alright, stop crying. Since there's nothing wrong, then go back to your room." Xue Duan Sheng called out to everyone before turning around and walking out.

"Why did you scream like that yesterday?" Xue Shaolei was puzzled by her strange behavior from yesterday. Since it was not convenient, she asked her about it today.

Xue Lian looked around to make sure there was no one else. He pulled Xue Shaoli into his room, then stuck his head out again to look around to prevent the walls from having ears. Only then did he close the door with great ease. He spoke of what happened yesterday.

"I didn't expect this Xue Luoyun to have such a scheming mind. He even wants to take revenge on you, he really doesn't know the meaning of death." I can't stand it any longer. " Xue Shaoli scolded him angrily, seeming to be filled with righteous indignation.

He never thought that Xue Ruyun would be so hard to deal with. It seemed that the two sisters had to work together to properly teach her a lesson.

"What ingenious plan does elder sister have?" Seeing such a confident Xue Shaoli, Xue Lian asked with a sly smile.

Xue Shaoli looked at her and smiled sinisterly.

"Since the darkness is no good, let's just kill her." Xue Shaoli had always been cruel and merciless. She had followed Mu Lingfeng for so long, but her life was nothing more than an ant in her eyes.

"But didn't father say that you can't be cruel to her …" Xue Lian did not dare to do it.

"We did not treat her too harshly. If it was because of an accident … You can't blame us for that. " Xue Shaoli was sinister beyond belief. Xue Xianfeng smiled. "Then what should we do?"

Xue Shaoli gestured for her to come closer and whispered into her ear.

"Big Sister is really good at scheming." After hearing it, Xue Lian clapped his hands and cheered.

When everyone was ready, they prepared to go.

Xue Ruyun leisurely walked out. He glanced at Xue Lian's painting with a meaningful gaze.

"Did you sleep well?" Xue Luoyun asked.

Others might not know about it, but Xue Lianhua was well aware that she was humiliating her with what happened yesterday. She lowered her head in silence, unable to respond.

Xue Ruyun smiled and got on that old broken carriage. Yesterday, he had already had someone fix it, so it shouldn't be that bumpy today.

When Xue Lian saw her get on the carriage, she was so angry that she hurriedly got on the carriage. She started pedalling her nose and eyes while staring in the direction of Xue Ruyun. Clenching her fists.

Xue Shaoli sat across from her gracefully with a dignified air. Looking at Xue Lian's fuming appearance, he laughed inwardly. After a while, she gently tugged at Xue Lian's sleeve to console him.

"Sis, that car of yours is really good to sit on. How about the three of us together, we can chat along the way." Xue Shaoli opened the curtain and pretended to fawn over her. Although she looked sincere on the outside, Xue Ruoyun could guess the ill intentions in her heart just by looking at her toes.

"Forget it. Although this carriage of mine is broken, it is spacious. The interior is too narrow. A magnanimous person like me might have squeezed all of you." Xue Luoyun rejected him immediately.

Looking at this scene, Xue Lian gritted his teeth in hatred. He thought that the person sitting in front of him was talking to him.

"With nothing to offer, adultery or theft. Miss must be careful. " Yun Zhi looked at Xue Luoyun and reminded him.

"Do you really need to say that? I've already seen through it." Leaning against the window, Xue Luoyun closed his eyes to rest his mind. Halfway through the carriage, Mrs Zhao suddenly called out to Yun Zhi: "Yun Zhi, Master is not feeling well. Please take care of him."

"Hmm?" Xue Ruyun was puzzled, even Yun Zhi was also stunned. However, since Madam had called out, of course she had to go.

After Yun Zhi had gotten into Mrs Zhao's carriage, Xue Ruoyun had been sitting restlessly. For some reason, his right eye had been jumping around. He always felt that something bad was going to happen.

Yun Zhi got on the carriage. When she saw that Xue Duan Sheng was really uncomfortable, she thought it was probably because he was tired after working day and night. The maids were there to take care of him.

As the carriage continued on its way, Mrs Zhao looked out of the window of the carriage and saw that they had arrived at the forest. She felt that it was about time.

"Master is not feeling well, the air here is very fresh, it would be better to rest for a while." Zhao Shi ordered. After the butler heard the news, he told everyone to stop and rest in place.

As the carriage in front stopped, so did the carriage behind. After knowing that the carriage had stopped, Xue Shaoli and Xue Lianqing knew that the time was right, so they got off the carriage.

He pretended to ask, "How is father?" the two of them asked in unison.

"It's nothing, I'm not feeling well. I'll be fine after a short rest." Xue Duan Sheng waved his hand.

"Your father is not feeling well. This is a wilderness with no doctors. What should I do?" Mrs Zhao said worriedly.

Then he winked at Xue Shaoli and the two of them understood each other.

"I remember that big sister doesn't know a bit about medicine?" Xue Shaoli seemed to have thought of something as she looked at Xue Ruoyun.

"That's right. I heard that when the crown prince was being hunted down, elder sister dug up some herbs in the mountains. That was the only way to save the crown prince's life." When Xue Lian recalled this matter, his words were filled with jealousy and envy.

"If that's the case, then you two sisters should go and find some medicine to alleviate the illness." Hold on till we get to the market in front, then we'll talk. " Madame Zhao looked at Xue Muyun.

Xue Ruyun went forward to check on Xue Duan Sheng's pulse; it was indeed intermittent, sometimes strong, sometimes weak. Looking at his gloomy face, it seemed that he was quite ill.

"Wait, I'll go find him." Although he still couldn't forgive Xue Duan Sheng in his heart, he couldn't just stand by and watch him die.

"Eh, I'm afraid there are wild beasts roaming around this desolate mountain and wilderness. It would be better to have your two younger sisters accompany you. If they encounter any danger, they can help each other take care of it. " Mrs Zhao deliberately emphasized the word 'dangerous' when she said it.

Xue Luoyun's thoughts were clear. Seeing the three of them looking at each other, and then suddenly being so kind, and even trying to get close to them in the morning, he was definitely plotting something. However, they couldn't guess what kind of scheme they were plotting. Seeing that Xue Duan Sheng's breath was barely left, Xue Ruoyun couldn't be bothered to waste his breath on them, and helplessly shrugged his shoulders.

"If you like it, then follow me." As he spoke, he turned around and walked into the forest.
