Crossing the Palace Fighting Fox Harem

Chapter 405: Heart Ripples

Ji Anni nodded vigorously in Long Mohan's arms, and her thoughts coincided with Long Mohan's.

No matter what happened in the dream, as long as you wake up from the dream and return to your original life, it will be a new beginning.

Yun Zhen quietly left the room. In front of Long Mohan and Zhao Ji, he was like a superfluous person and couldn't get a word in at all.

Long Mohan was sure that the person was Zhao Ji, but thinking calmly, Zhao Ji could not have come back suddenly. There was no change in the sky, and the door of time and space was not opened. Where did Zhao Ji come from? After thinking about it, there was only one answer. It was not that Zhao Ji came back, but that the part of Zhao Ji's memory in Zhao Ji's brain suddenly woke up under Yuan Rong's stimulation.

It is even stranger than the previous form of "Ji Anni's soul + Soji's body". The current Soji is equal to "Ji Anni's soul + Soji's body + part of Soji's memory".

Is the returning Zhao Ji really Zhao Ji, or is it Ji Anni who possesses Zhao Ji's memories?

Yun Zhen didn’t know either. The only thing he could feel was the tightness in his chest.

It's hard to describe what that feeling is. When I saw Ji Anni throw herself into Long Mohan's arms and Long Mohan hugged her tightly, I suddenly felt that my existence was very redundant. In the past, the promises I made to Ji Anni to be her family and protect her seemed to have become as light and weightless as catkins.

Be her family? I don't have the qualifications at all. She is a concubine, her family is the emperor and the prince, and I...

He was just someone who pulled her into this world by accident.

I remembered her determination when she rushed to save me on the execution ground; I remembered her persistence in giving up returning to her original world and staying by my side; I remembered her crying face when Baoer passed away; I remembered her sad expression after being rejected by me...

Everything is so vivid and clear.

Her every smile, every expression, every word, all appeared vividly in Yun Zhen's mind.

I don't know since when it became impossible to just treat her as an outsider.

However, Zhao Ji belongs to the emperor, and Ji Anni belongs to the original world. No matter Zhao Ji or Ji Anni, they are not people that Yun Zhen can touch. Her existence is like the moon in the sky and the reflection in the water, clear and beautiful, but untouchable...

After all, the distance between the two is still as far as heaven and earth, clouds and mud.

While she is still in this world, protect her; when she decides to leave this world, bless her - this is all Yun Zhen can do, and it is also the standard that Yun Zhen sets for himself, and he will never allow himself to cross it.

After Baoer's death, the storm and waves in Yun Zhen's heart gradually subsided with the passage of time.

He thought he would live a peaceful life and never be emotionally touched by anyone again in his life.

Even if you throw a big rock, not a single drop of water will splash, but...

This absolute self-confidence is now gradually beginning to waver.

When he saw Long Mohan and Ji Anni hugging each other just now, and truly realized that she already had someone, the still water in his heart began to ripple...

At Wenhuayuan, it was already dark and it was time to go to bed.

Zhuang Xiaomeng and Zhang Sun Mingri had already returned to their rooms, leaving only Prince Ming and Yizhen in Taoyuan.

After a day of getting along, Prince Ming's hostility towards Yizhen was not eliminated at all. He didn't talk to Yizhen at all, and he didn't even want to look at her face. When Zhuang Xiaomeng and Zhang Sun Mingri were with them, the three children laughed and made noises, and Yizhen sat quietly by the side, listening to the three people joking with each other, and the atmosphere was not awkward. But once Zhuang Xiaomeng and Zhang Sun Mingri left, when Prince Ming and Yizhen were alone, the atmosphere in the room suddenly cooled down, as if it was suddenly put into a freezer and frozen.

Prince Ming was a child, and children always have some bad habits. Yizhen was an adult, so she should have some adult tolerance. Seeing that Prince Ming ignored her, she took the initiative to talk to him and whispered, "Prince."

"Why are you still staying here? It's getting late, why don't you go back?" Even though Prince Ming was angry, his voice was not loud, but soft, without any killing power.

Although Yizhen seemed to be a soft persimmon that was easy to bully, she was still persistent at the critical moment. She did not retreat because of Prince Ming's tough attitude, but said softly: "Yizhen has been ordered to stay in Taoyuan to protect your safety, Prince."

"I don't need your protection!" Prince Ming looked down on Yizhen, "I can protect myself!"

"Oh? Since the prince insists so much, Yizhen really has to leave." Yizhen said with a smile.

"Just leave. I'll wait for mother to come back by myself." Prince Ming's voice was trembling, and one could hear the fear in his heart.

"Xiao Zhao is recuperating in the Xianke Pavilion and probably won't be back tonight." Yizhen reminded Prince Ming. In the evening, Huarong came to Taoyuan to report to Yizhen, explaining the whole story and Zhaoji's condition.

"Even if I don't come back, I'm not afraid of being alone!" Prince Ming said stubbornly, but the trembling in his voice became more and more obvious.

"Then Yizhen really has to say goodbye." As she said this, she actually walked towards the door.

"Go away, go away! Never come back! I don't want to see you!" Prince Ming shouted behind Yizhen. His rapid-fire speech exposed his fear. But he refused to regret and refused to keep Yizhen. He was angry and wanted to fight to the end.

Yizhen did not look back and quietly walked out of the door. But she did not walk far, but stood by the door, listening carefully to the movements in the room. Since Prince Ming wanted to drive her away, she stayed in the room, and Prince Ming had no intention of sleeping. But if she left, Prince Ming might get into bed early because of fear - this was the most effective way Yizhen could think of to coax Prince Ming to sleep.

I put my ear to the door and listened for a long time, but heard no sound.

Did Prince Ming go to bed obediently? Yizhen quietly came to the window and peeked through the crack.

She saw Prince Ming standing angrily in the middle of the room, staring at the door in the direction he had left, motionless.

Alas, it seems that the prince really hates me... Yizhen felt a little sad, not knowing what she had done to displease Prince Ming. If it was about the necklace, hadn't Zhaoji explained it clearly? If the relationship between Zhaoji and herself was broken because of Prince Ming's obstruction, it would be bad.

Thinking of this, Yizhen began to dislike Prince Ming.

On the one hand, she longed for the recognition of Prince Ming, but on the other hand, she hated Prince Ming's indiscriminate hostility towards her.

At this time, there was finally some movement in the room - it seemed to be the footsteps of Prince Ming.

Yizhen, feeling guilty, was afraid of being discovered by Prince Ming, so she lowered her head hastily and dared not say a word.

After a while, I heard the sound of Prince Ming closing the rear window. Prince Ming had been attacked by poisonous snakes before, and those snakes crawled in through the rear window, so Prince Ming was still frightened and had a deep fear of the rear window. If he didn't check again and again whether the rear window was closed tightly, he would not dare to sleep at all. Even if he was lying in bed, he would wake up from time to time and stare at the direction of the rear window to see if there was anything strange crawling in.

Yizhen, who had been listening carefully with her ear pressed against the door, suddenly had some bad intentions after making sure that Prince Ming had gone to bed. She decided to teach this bad boy who had driven her away and kept saying that he was not afraid and did not need her a lesson.

She gently tapped the window with her hand, making a "click" sound.

If you listen casually, it sounds like something has fallen on the window, but if you listen carefully, it sounds more like something is hiding outside the window, trying to break into the house.

Prince Ming was lying on the bed, looking at the dark room. He was not sleepy at all and his nerves were extremely tense.

After hearing a strange noise coming from the front window, he sat up with a start, staring at the window, shaking all over.

Yizhen saw through the window that Prince Ming was so scared by her that he sat up and quickened the rhythm of the knocking.

"Who, who is outside!" Prince Ming plucked up his courage and shouted towards the window.

Yizhen said nothing and continued knocking on the window.

"Who's outside? Stop knocking! Stop knocking!" Prince Ming wrapped himself tightly in the quilt and screamed.

Yizhen was laughing outside the window. After all, children are children. They are frightened by a strange noise and don't know what to do. How dare they say they can protect themselves? Yizhen stopped knocking and couldn't bear to hurt the pitiful Prince Ming.

Just then, a rustling sound suddenly came from the grass behind Yizhen.

At first, Yizhen didn't pay attention, but the sound gradually became louder.

Yizhen subconsciously looked back and found a pair of golden eyes staring at her in the grass.

"what!"

A piercing scream tore through the tranquility of the night. Yizhen was so frightened that her face turned pale and her mind went blank.

Those golden eyes definitely didn't belong to a wild cat, but a monster. Because from those eyes, one could see a hint of a threatening warning. If it was a wild cat, it would never dare to issue such a warning to humans.

Prince Ming in the room heard Yizhen's scream and was so scared that he almost jumped off the bed. He shouted loudly: "Su Congfei, is that you? Is that you?"

The naive Prince Ming did not expect that Yizhen was the culprit who had just frightened him outside the window. He thought Yizhen had gone back, and when he was about to knock on the door, he was attacked by the monster outside the room who had just knocked on him. He was very worried about Yizhen and wanted to rush out like a man to protect her, but his stiff body could not move at all. He had already been so scared that he had forgotten how to move.

At this time, Yizhen, who was frightened by the demon pupil, pushed the door open with a "slap" and hid in the room. It seemed that as long as she was with Prince Ming, as long as there was a human being around her, she could calm the panic in her heart, even if Prince Ming was only a six-year-old child.

"Concubine Su Congfei, what's wrong? What's wrong?" Prince Ming grabbed Yizhen who rushed to the bedside and asked nervously.

"Monster, monster..." Yizhen hugged Prince Ming's head tightly, to comfort herself and Prince Ming.
