Chapter 223 You Kissed Me That Night
Su Changzhao was dumbfounded again.
Before she could figure out the situation, Yu Jiuchen had already turned around: "Go to the Red Tower at dawn tomorrow morning, I have something to tell you."
Su Changzhao just wanted to ask, what can't be said now, and he has to go to the Red Tower to say it tomorrow morning?
Red Tower, isn't there a monster locked there?
But thought again, will the orb be in the Red Tower?
Su Changzhao had suspected this possibility early in the morning, but during that period of cleaning, she had already checked the inside and outside of the first and second floors of the Red Tower.
So, Yu Jiuchen told her to go to the Red Tower, maybe it was just because it was quiet there.
But what is there to talk about between a prince and an ugly maid?
Could it be that he has seen through his identity as a Daqing native?
And...was what he just said serious?
โโ"I marry you...I'm not kidding."
Su Changzhao couldn't help but slightly speed up his heartbeat.
Early the next morning, before dawn, Su Changzhao came to the Red Tower as agreed.
Seeing that the door was locked, she couldn't help being suspicious.
locked?
Am I early?
Or people are simply playing with me!
Su Changzhao, Su Changzhao, when did you become so naive?
How could she actually believe the nonsense of a man she had just met for less than a month.
Her mind was spinning, but the person had already arrived, and she didn't even think about turning around and leaving.
With a click, the lock opens.
Push the door and enter.
Fortunately, Su Zhuang didn't have time to take back the key back then, otherwise she wouldn't be able to get in today.
Going straight to the second floor, saw lifelike stone statues still standing in front of the green screen of mountains and rivers.
Su Changzhao walked over and touched the face of the stone statue.
Then...he hugged the stone statue.
He lowered his eyes and said in satisfaction: "It's still good for you. In the huge palace, you are the only one who can bring me a little bit of comfort."
Missing Ah Heng suddenly surged in her heart, and hugging could no longer satisfy her, so she habitually put her hand into the other's skirt, ready to touch that long-lost abdominal muscle.
It has to be said that this master sculptor is a real bull, and even the details of the abdominal muscles are carved vividly.
But as soon as his hand reached in, there was a sound from nowhere.
"What are you doing?"
"!!!" Su Changzhao was shocked.
Busy looking behind.
She recognized the voice as Yu Jiuchen's, but when she turned around, she saw no one.
"Am I having an auditory hallucination?" Little Heart beat a drum.
Until her wrist tightened, she was pulled over by a strong force.
I saw that the place where the stone statue used to be was, but now it has been replaced by a living person like Yu Jiuchen!
As for half of his face, it gradually transformed from a hard stone to a soft skin, and the strands of hair that had been condensed into one body also became distinct and drooped down silkily.
At this time, the twilight of the morning came in through the gap.
Hit him on the back.
Su Changzhao looked at his handsome face against the light, and was speechless for a long time.
"Scared?"
Yu Jiuchen watched her reaction in his eyes, as if he didn't want to miss any reaction on her face, he kept staring at her.
But Su Changzhao said, "The stone statue... has become a spirit?"
"..." Yu Jiuchen froze for a moment.
next second.
Su Changzhao pinched his face as if he had discovered a new world, and looked at him in various ways: "So you are a stone spirit?"
Yu Jiuchen: "..."
"It's amazing, what's the reason?"
Yu Jiuchen kept staring at the woman opposite, her eyes twinkled with curiosity and no fear at all.
The other party's reaction and those in memoryโโ
Or frightened, yelling 'Monster, don't come here!โ person;
Or hate, when the empress Tang Ruke pushed him away when he was young: "I don't have a child like you!"
Over the years, these old pains have washed his heart completely numb.
He has no pain to this day.
Can.
Seeing Su Changzhao, he said lightly, "You...are you not afraid of me?"
Su Changzhao blinked his eyes, and then remembered that his reaction was too calm, and quickly withdrew his claws, pretending to be afraid and saying:
"Ah! Great Immortal, spare me! Don't eat the villain, the villain's food is not good, you can tell by the appearance of the villain!" Putting his hands together, "I beg the Immortal to spare the villain, letting him live is better than building a seven-level pagoda!~"
Yu Jiuchen was speechless, but seeing Su Changzhao's clumsy acting skills, he couldn't help laughing, and the corners of his lips curled up in a slight arc:
"It's late~" said two words almost with a sigh, and then stepped forward with a handsome face: "You already know the secret of this palace."
Su Changzhao replied: "The villain doesn't need to know."
Yu Jiuchen: "Do you know what happened to the last person who said that?"
"Marry a husband and have a daughter? Take care of yourself?" Su Changzhao continued to pretend to be naive.
"Wrong! Her bones have rotted in the lotus pond in the harem." Yu Jiuchen's eyes were cold.
Su Changzhao smiled: "So His Highness invited the villain here just to give the villain enough reason to go to the lotus pond to report?"
Hearing this, Yu Jiuchen's eyes lit up with admiration: "You are smart."
Su Changzhao's smile continued: "Your Highness may wish to speak directly if you have something to say."
Yu Jiuchen took a deep look at her, "Forget it." He seemed to have made a certain determination in his heart, "Do you know why I am like this?"
What he said, of course, was that he could turn into a stone statue.
Su Changzhao: "Your Highness is really not a stone spirit?"
"Of course not!" Yu Jiuchen denied it.
"Then..." Su Changzhao shrugged, "The villain can't guess."
"..." Yu Jiuchen almost vomited blood from her anger. After calming down, he felt that he had better say what he needed to say, otherwise he would be mad at her at some point.
"Things, we have to start from eighteen years ago..."
From Yu Jiuchen's narration, Su Changzhao summed it up.
A simple summary is that Yu Jiuchen's biological father is the third prince of Yulong Kingdom.
Tang Chuyuan's biological father was the holy son of Yujiang.
To get the throne for his son.
The Holy Son of Yujiang successively killed several princesses and princes of Fenglai Kingdom with spells.
Yu Jiuchen's biological father was also among them.
Yufu was extremely favored by Empress Tang Ruke during his lifetime, and Yu Jiuchen was also crowned crown prince when he was born.
He is the first male crown prince in the history of Fenglai Kingdom, and Tang Ruke is undoubtedly going to subvert the future of Fenglai Kingdom.
This also caused resentment among many male concubines in the harem.
Concubine Baishu, the holy son of Yujiang, took advantage of the jealousy of these concubines to cast the most vicious curse on the infant Yu Jiuchen.
After the queen knew about it, she wanted to punish Concubine Baishu, but she found it was too late.
Both the government and the court have been controlled by the ambitious Concubine Baishu.
Later, the queen couldn't keep her lover, but at least she wanted to keep their flesh and blood, so she gave Yu Jiuchen a national treasure.
Therefore, the poisonous curse did not kill Yu Jiuchen, but it also left him with unknown sequelaeโโ
During the day, Yu Jiuchen will turn into a cold stone statue, and will come back to life at night.
In order not to let the secret leak out, the queen killed all the palace people who knew the secret at that time, and built a red tower.
All the tragic deaths of the palace people were blamed on the 'red tower monster'.
Once this news came out, it immediately played a role in deterring the countries.
Seeing that Yu Jiuchen has become such a monster, Concubine Baishu has no way to compete with his son for the throne, so he let him go...
Speaking of this, Yu Jiuchen seemed to be caught in the memory of the past.
Su Changzhao saw that his eyes were full of rage, and he clenched his fists angrily.
I know that these years are not easy for him.
When he thought that the person in front of him was most likely to be Ah Heng's previous life, and thought that Ah Heng had such a bad fate in his previous life, his heart ached.
Subconsciously reached out and took the other's hand.
Feeling the soft covering on the back of his hand, Yu Jiuchen almost dodged instinctively, but when he realized that it was Su Changzhao who was comforting him, he didn't dodge, but just stared at the people around him.
Only then did Su Changzhao realize that something was wrong, he quickly let go, and apologized: "I'm sorry, it was the villain who overstepped."
Yu Jiuchen grabbed her hand.
But he didn't speak, Su Changzhao couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, so he changed the topic and asked: "Your Highness can tell such a secret thing to the villain, there must be a reason?"
Yu Jiuchen didn't let go of her hand, "Yes," he replied softly, "I once got advice from the Xia Kingdom astrologer, who said that as long as I meet the destined person, the curse can be undone."
Su Changzhao immediately realized: I'm going, maybe I'm the one who is destined?So bloody~
He didn't say anything, just simply said 'oh'.
Seeing that she was pretending to be stupid, Yu Jiuchen had no choice but to say: "That person is you."
Su Changzhao: "Oh, how can the villain help His Highness?"
"Let's make a deal." This time Yu Jiuchen didn't hide anything, and said cheerfully.
Su Changzhao heard what he said and carefully pondered what he said.
Generally speaking, there is no reason for an imposing prince to make a deal with a maid.
Such a thing as a transaction can only be done when the bargaining chips of both parties are equal.
In other words, Yu Jiuchen needs Su Changzhao to lift his curse, and Su Changzhao also needs Yu Jiuchen.
But the question is, what is there about Yu Jiuchen that Su Changzhao can make a deal with?
!!
Su Changzhao immediately thought of a reason!
Yu Jiuchen kept staring at her face, "You guessed right, I already know your identity, the number one assassin in Daqing, Su Changzhao."
"..."
"You came to Fenglai Palace for the Nine-Eyed Nirvana Pearl, right?"
Su Changzhao's eyes turned cold suddenly: "It turns out that His Highness already knew about it."
Now that everyone has a showdown, she doesn't need to pretend anymore.
Yu Jiuchen curled his lips: "I only found out about it recently, but this will not be an obstacle to our transaction. On the contrary, if you and I cooperate, we will get what we need."
He grabbed Su Changzhao's hand and placed it on his chest.
Su Changzhao immediately felt an unusual heat in his palm, "Is the orb in your body?"
As if to confirm her conjecture, she cast her puzzled eyes on the other party.
I only met a handsome man like a crown jade, and said frankly: "Yes, you have been lurking in the palace for many days, and here is what you have been struggling to find."
Su Changzhao smiled: "Your Highness is not afraid, the villain will kill you now, and then dissect the body to get the beads?"
Yu Jiuchen's face raised his confidence: "Since I can tell you, I am not afraid. The Nine-Eyed Nirvana Bead has been in my body for many years. Unless the curse is broken, it will be futile to take the bead forcibly."
"Oh? There are other things like that?"
"The reason why the orb is a orb is because it has spirituality. I am its host now. Only if I am willing to give it as a gift, it will naturally leave. Otherwise, even if you kill me, it will follow me in the next life."
"So your Fenglai royal family has passed down orbs from generation to generation?"
"Otherwise, why do you think that the orb has never been stolen for so many years?"
Su Changzhao said dumbly: "Okay, how does Your Highness want to trade? Your Highness should have thought about it a long time ago, right?"
Mentioning this, Yu Jiuchen curled his fingers under his sleeves again, his expression became unnatural.
Seeing his reaction, Su Changzhao had a bad feeling in his heart.
Just heard Yu Jiuchen say: "That night, you already kissed me."
Who is kissing whom?!
Su Changzhao: "So?"
Yu Jiuchen: "So... (don't open your face) you have to be responsible..."
Su Changzhao laughed: "It's not Your Highness, the villain doesn't quite understand what you said about being responsible. Is it just a marriage and a formality, which is equivalent to some kind of ritual to unravel the curse. Or...you have to followWhat about the villain?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Changzhao noticed a faint blush on Yu Jiuchen's side face.
Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, Su Changzhao said anxiously: "If you don't say it, Your Highness, it's not easy for a villain to handle it, right?"
Hearing this, Yu Jiuchen tightened his curled fingers, "It's...the latter."
These three words seemed to have used up all his shame.
When Su Changzhao saw him, his face seemed to be redder than before.
In particular, he looks exactly the same as Ah Heng, which makes it look more interesting.
Can't help thinking of teasing.
"Oh, this is easy to handle."
Su Changzhao finished speaking.
Yu Jiuchen heard rustling voices coming from her.
Looking sideways, he saw that Su Changzhao was already undoing his belt.
"You... what are you doing!" He actually stuttered.
Su Changzhao laughed and said: "Help Your Highness break the curse and complete the transaction. There are not so many rules when a villain is born in the Jianghu. If you are in a hurry, please hurry up, Your Highness, let's make a quick decision!"
Yu Jiuchen's handsome face turned red!!
Immediately turned his back, "No!"
Su Changzhao thought he was shy:
"Your Highness is afraid that you won't be able to find a good family in the future? It's okay. If I don't tell you about today's matter, no one will know. Just close your eyes for a while and leave the rest to the villain."
"!!"
