From the East Palace to Zhaohua Hall, one must pass through a small garden.

At this time, Xiao Xixixi was squatting in the flower bushes.

She craned her neck, peering through the gaps in the flowerbed, as if waiting for someone.

Gong Baoqin looked at Zhang Xixi and whispered, "My lady, even if you want to see the Crown Prince, you can't just stay here. This is against the rules, what if it angers the Crown Prince?"

Xiao Xixi said without looking back, "I've been in the palace for half a year now, but His Royal Highness hasn't even looked at me once. If I don't find a way, I'll never see him again in this life."

Even so, you can't...

"Hush!" Xiao Xixi interrupted her rambling, "Don't say anymore, someone's here!"

Bao Qin hurried to close the door.

As the two of them walked between the flowers and branches, they saw a line of people coming towards them.

Among them, the handsome young man in the moon-white brocade robe was the most eye-catching.

He was in the lead, with a cold and aloof expression, his bearing elegant.

Though only eighteen, he already has an imposing presence.

Especially those black eyes, like a deep cold pool, just one glance would make you feel frozen.

This man was the crown prince of the Dazheng dynasty, a poor and humble one.

Xiao Xiuxi clenched the talisman in her hand, silently counting down in her heart.

Three, two, one!

When you get to the last number, rush out!

Because he rushed too fast and didn't control the distance, he accidentally overshot it. The whole person went straight towards Qinghan!

Qing Han reacted instantly, swiftly sidestepping the attack.

Xiao Xixi then passed by the Crown Prince in a posture of falling sand and geese, and fell heavily to the ground.

Bǎoqín, hiding in the flower bushes, covered her eyes, unable to bear watching any longer.

All the eunuchs following the prince were taken aback by this sudden turn of events.

Chang Gonggong reacted the fastest, shouting fiercely, "Who are you? How dare you attack His Royal Highness the Prince?!"

Xiao Xixixi lifted her head, her eyes filled with tears, trying her best to appear pitiful.

"Your Highness, do you not remember me? I am Consort Xiao!"

Qing Han stared with cold eyes, as if he didn't remember there was still someone in his own backyard.

Xiao Xixixi got up and first bowed to him, then handed the talisman she had been clutching in her palm, her eyes pleading.

"I know Your Highness is accompanying the Emperor on a hunt today. The outside world is dangerous, and I worry for your safety. I specially requested this amulet to keep you safe. Please accept it."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions on everyone's faces in the room became strange.

Everyone in the palace knows that His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, dislikes all things strange and mystical. Now, Consort Xiao dares to send him a protective amulet? Doesn't she know she's asking for trouble?!

As expected, the cold eyes that were already icy instantly became even colder.

"Get out of the way."

Xiao Xixi held the amulet tightly, refusing to let go.

Qing Han glanced at Chang Gonggong.

Chang Gonggong understood and immediately ordered two strong, robust mamas to step forward, intending to forcibly drag Xiao Xixi away.

Xiao Xixi suddenly rushed forward at this moment, and hugged Qinghan's tall frame tightly!

"Your Highness, your brow appears dark today, foreshadowing a potential calamity. I implore you to wear this amulet, as it will safeguard you from harm!"

Qinghan froze in place.

He lowered his head, looking at the person who was tightly hugging him and refusing to let go. His cold eyes seemed like they could freeze a sculpture into ice right there.

He had lived for eighteen years and had never seen such a bold and reckless person!

"Bring him here, drag him away, and lock him up!"
