Chapter 9 The Jade Doll Found Her Tongue

"I have found out that she was a spy of the Kingdom of Wu. She drugged you and then asked the people of the Kingdom of Wu to kill the princess. Now she's been controlled by our people, and she said she wanted to cooperate with us." Li Yi reported to Yun Zhi respectfully.

"Kill her."

"We have the same goal. We can use her."

"Don't you understand my words? Anyone who dares to hurt her even a little has to die."

"Prince, in fact, if Princess Xi is dead, the Kingdom of Yun will... "

"Uncle Yi, how can you also believe in such nonsense? I am going to tell you one last time—don't hurt her."

"But prince..."

"Li Yi, if you mention hurting her again, please don't blame me for breaking up our relationship. I will kill the vicious King Yun and then conquer the world."

"Yes." Li Yi left and he felt helpless. His prince had feelings that he should not have.

Now Yun Zhi felt so happy that he had sent Ayue to be Yun Xi's bodyguard. Maybe he would not feel happy at all after he knew Yue was a man. Yun Zhi now must speed up his pace. Yun Xi was going to turn 16 in two years. Before that, he had to come up with a perfect plan to save her.

Yun Zhi thought for a while and then summoned Li Yi. He asked him not to kill the spy of the Kingdom of Wu temporarily. To kill her in this way would be too friendly. She was from the Kingdom of Wu, so he came up with a special plan. He was going to send her back to King Yun and then offered her a chance to kill King Yun herself.

Yun Zhi knew that this female entertainer did not have the ability to kill King Yun. He didn't care about it because it was still a good thing if she could make King Yun suffer a little. For the best scenario, even if she did kill King Yun, he would not spare her, for she had tried to murder the girl he wanted to protect.

The morning sunlight shining on the bed was not dazzling. However, if people suddenly opened their eyes, they still couldn't adapt to it. This seemed to be an ordinary morning. However, something had changed in the deserted Xiyan Palace.

Yun Xi blinked. In hazy light, she saw a familiar face with women’s delicate facial features. However, this peaceful sleeping face also showed a man's resolute temperament.

This girl's eyes were no longer empty. She looked at Yue in front of her, and she hadn't felt so peaceful in so many years. Especially yesterday, she had vented her true feelings. Yue was patient with her and gave her the chance to cry freely. Yue always accompanied her so that Yun Xi thought she could rely on him. The jade doll beauty now had a soul. She was no longer alone.

Yun Xi looked at Yue who was still sleeping. She hugged him more tightly and stayed in his arms. Yun Xi even buried her head into his fake bosom. She was greedy for his temperature and didn't want to leave.

Actually, Yue had been awakened the moment Yun Xi opened her eyes. However, he dared not move! On the one hand, he was afraid to frighten her. On the other hand, he didn't know how to face her. It's lucky that the girl still didn't know he was a man. But before he “celebrated” it, the girl even rested in his arms. She was also hugging him very tightly. Yue didn't know what he could do so he pretended to be sleeping, hoping that the girl could leave.

Yue was not a woman but a real man. It's so hard for him to stay calm holding an extremely beautiful girl he liked. Yue had no choice but chanted Sonorous Hum and the Sutra of Forty-Two Sections silently. He tried his best to let go of his mind. If he kept doing these things, maybe he would become a monk in the future.

The door of the room was opened gently, and then Yuer came in. Last night, she was so frightened that she escaped. This morning she didn't see Princess Xi, so she wanted to see what was going on. Princess Xi had been dull these years so that this palace maid was kind of rude. When she opened the door and walked in, she saw two women hugging each other on a bed.

"Yue, how can you hold the princess in your arms while you are sleeping?" Yuer stared at the two people on the bed with a strange look.

When Yuer came in, Yue opened his eyes. He was furious. This little palace maid was so rude. He wanted to sit up, but the little person in his arms was hugging him tightly and didn't allow him to move.

Yun Xi sat up slowly. Her voice was still hoarse but it had been much better. She said in a soft voice, "Yuer, how dare you! You entered the princess's bedroom without permission. Can you be ruder?"

Yuer’s eyes were wide open because she could not believe this, "Princess... you are normal now..."

"Get out of my room as fast as you can."

"But... why can Yuer be there but I can't?"

"Yuer, don't you understand my words? If you can't hear me, I can send you out of the palace."

Yuer now was scared. For all these years, Princess Xi had been a jade doll beauty, and Yuer always accompanied her with ostensible obedience. She stole her money, ate her food, and even wore her clothes. Anyway, she wouldn't talk, so no one would know. It seemed that the princess didn't care about it. In this way, Yuer thought she could get all her stuff after she was buried alive. However, now the jade doll princess could speak and her eyes were no longer empty. Yue was just here not long ago and she had become the trusted subordinate of Princess Xi. Yue was also a woman who practiced martial arts—Yuer couldn't beat her easily.

Yuer left the room in a hurry. She was worried that Princess Xi would kick her out. After all, she was the palace maid who had to make sure the princess’s duty as a sacrifice would be performed. If she was kicked out, she might be killed. When Yuer turned around, her cute and harmless eyes suddenly looked evil.

Yue was in a good mood after Yun Xi defended him. He now didn't even hate the little palace maid. He sat up to get out of bed, but Yun Xi was still holding his arm.

The girl said in a low voice, "Yue’er, don't leave me. Can you always be with me?" Her voice was so careful, and her eyes were so nervous. Perhaps people who once felt warmth would be more afraid of loneliness.

Yue was near the girl so that she could hear her words clearly. He turned back to hug the girl, and also said in her ears gently, "Yes. Yue will never leave the princess."

"Call me Yinzhu."

"Yes, Yinzhu." Yue was not hesitant. Of course, he would still call her princess in front of other people. He had fallen in love with this girl, and he could not and would not let her go. Yue suddenly smiled, "Yinzhu, from now on, you should call me Yue instead of Yue’er." Looking at the curious girl in his arms, he thought she was so cute. Yue hugged her even more tightly. His chin was on her head, and he continued to say, "Only Yinzhu could call me Yue. Yue belongs to Yinzhu"

"Good." Yun Xi did not question him but promised in a straightforward manner. In fact, she was happy because he said “Yue belongs to Yinzhu”.

"Now can we get out of bed? Does Yue need to serve Yinzhu?" Yue regretted it the moment he finished his words.

Yun Xi got up immediately and took off her clothes, waiting for Yue to help her change her clothes.

Staring at the beautiful girl's body in front, this fake woman almost had a nosebleed. His face was as red as blood. Yue took some clothes to cover her naked body hastily. Well... if such a thing happened again, this fake woman might die from a nosebleed one day!
