481 Traveling to the South Border Without a Companion
He had no idea why Qian Jiyun had tracked him down and returned him to his residence. Could his trip to the southern border benefit Qian Jiyun?
He knew he had to go to the southern border. No matter how much he stalled for time, he could not avoid this.
“Your Highness, what should we do now?”
The guard looked at Prince De, who sat in a daze on a chair, not caring that he was in pain.
Everyone in the Prince De Residence knew he did not want to go to the southern border.
“What should we do?” Prince De looked up and glanced at the guard.
How could he not go to the southern border when so many people wanted him to, and Qian Jiyun even brought him back?
“Since they want me to go, then I’ll—”
Before he could finish speaking, another guard rushed in and reported, “Your Highness, Prince Jian Xun is here.”
Prince De nearly flew into a rage. He had just returned to his residence, but Jian Xun hurried here impatiently to dig a grave for him, right?
Do these people really think I’m stupid?
Sometimes, he wanted to ask if anyone born into the royal family was simple-minded.
It was just a question of whether they wanted to be simple-minded.
He exhaled heavily and pursed his lips as he looked at the guard who reported this news.
“Should we let him in, Your Highness?” the guard asked.
“Of course.” Prince De looked at the guard in amusement.
Jian Xun had specifically come to find him. How could he listen to Jian Xun’s advice to go to the southern border if he did not let him in?
“I’ll be traveling to the southern border without a companion. What do you think of Jian Xun?” he asked.
The guards were speechless.
The southern border was a trap. Prince De also wished to implicate Prince Jian Xun.
However, the guards believed that Prince De would succeed if he told the old Emperor about this.
No matter how unwilling Jian Xun was, the Princess Imperial would definitely pack him up and send him to the Prince De Residence to set off for the southern border together.
A guard immediately gave Prince De a thumbs up.
“Your Highness, you are wise. Prince Jian Xun enjoys interacting with you the most, right? He can go to the southern border with you.”
Jian Xun probably did not expect Prince De to target him and take him to the southern border just because he followed his mother’s orders to gather information.
If he had known, he would not have come to make Prince De unhappy at this time.
At Qiongzhi Courtyard…
An Jiuyue was woken up by her hunger. She felt like she could eat a cow after sleeping on the bed.
When she tried to get up, she discovered that her arms and legs had almost stopped belonging to her.
“Hiss… Argh!” She was in so much pain that she almost cried.
“What’s going on, Wei Na? Did someone come in and beat me up while I was sleeping?” she asked Wei Na in her mind. She was in a lot of pain.
Even if she had overexerted herself today, she should not be in so much pain that she could not get out of bed.
Wei Na was speechless. It reminded her, “Master, you used a spirit weapon today!”
The Skeleton Long Whip was a spirit weapon. How could it be the same as ordinary weapons? It depleted not only her physical strength but also her Original Soul!
