Plot 1

  After they left, Chen Xi opened her eyes again and sat up, beckoning to Lin Junchen with a crook of her finger. Lin Junchen walked forward in confusion, "Princess, what instructions do you have?"

  "Where is the headquarters of the Black Dragon Society?"

  "Princess, the Black Dragon Gang is a newly emerged sect in the Jianghu world over the past two years. Their whereabouts are mysterious and to this day, no one knows where their headquarters is located."

  So it is!

  She furrowed her brows and pouted, thinking about how to find the Black Dragon Gang's people in the morning and evening.

  Lin Junchen looked at her contemplative appearance with some confusion: "Princess, why are you asking this?"

  With a faint smile at dawn and dusk, he said sincerely: "I'd like to go visit their leader!"

  Wow!

  Isn't this a big joke?

  Visiting the boss of the Black Dragon Gang, knowing they want to kill her, why go visit?

  "How does the Black Dragon Society operate? Is it black or white?"

  Lin Junchen recalled and replied: "Black and white are all-encompassing, as long as someone can afford the price, they will take over."

  "How can ordinary people find them to work?"

  "This... is still unclear, Princess, what do you really want?" Lin Junchen looked at her with concern, feeling that the actions of Chi Yang princess had been too different from usual over the past few days, and were difficult to grasp.

  Leaning against the stone table with her chin in her hands, she was lost in thought. Could she lure them into a trap by giving them a task? Hehe, they wanted to kill her anyway, so she would put out a price and then reveal a location for them to go to... like moths flying into fire...

  His smile suddenly turned sinister, startling the others around him, who felt a chill run down their spines.

  Lin Junchen's heart was quite cool, "Princess?"

  At dawn and dusk, he beckoned him to come closer with a hooked finger, whispered a few words in his ear, Lin Junchen's face changed slightly at first, then hesitated, "Princess, this matter is likely not suitable, what if there's an accident..."

  "Life is full of unexpected events, let me handle it, don't disappoint me."

  "Yes, Princess." Lin Junchen departed calmly.

  Xu Feishuang looked at Lin Junchen's back with some worry, and didn't know what the Duke of Chi Yang had him do, would it be dangerous?

  At dawn and dusk, I caught a glimpse of his worried eyes and teased: "Are you very close to Jun Chen?"

  "Wu Gongzi has helped me a lot in daily life, and our personalities are also quite compatible."

  Also, both are elegant men, but one is sunny and the other is melancholy.

  She lay down on the wicker chair, continuing her meditation morning and evening. Focused meditation could increase her control over her own body and also allow her to use various elements around her more skillfully.

  The elegant sound of the guqin continued to drift through the courtyard, while Xu Feishuang silently gathered his herbs. His gaze occasionally glanced at Chen Xi, thinking to himself: What's going on with this princess?

  Time slipped away bit by bit in leisure, and before I knew it, dusk had arrived.

  Lin Junchen still hasn't returned, and Xu Feishuang's worries have increased a bit more.

  "Frost, I've lost my memory, can you understand?"

  Huh?

  Xu Feishuang looked at her in surprise, "Amnesia? How did you come up with that, Princess?"

  "Ever since I bumped my head that day, I've forgotten all about past events. Do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?"

  Well, Xu Feishuang was in a dilemma, it wasn't good or bad for him, but it was a good thing for some people, such as Huangfu Jinghao.

  He slowly walked forward and reached out to take her pulse, Chen Xi raised an eye to glance at his fingers, very symmetrical fingers, those eyes that were partially covered by eyelashes still looked so melancholic.

  "Princess, I'm afraid even I may not be able to solve this matter... your pulse seems fine... wait a minute, Princess, just now when I took your pulse, you clearly hadn't been poisoned..."

  Smiling softly as she gazed at him in the morning and evening, she said lightly: "If I were not safe, would I be living such a carefree life?"

  It's strange too, he is weird.

  So it turns out that the princess's abnormal behavior these days was because she had amnesia?

  But why did she want to tell him?

  "Princess, should this be told to others?"

  A faint smile in the morning and evening, carelessly saying "whatever, I don't care."

  Wow!

  Xu Feishuang was stunned, this woman's change in demeanor was truly bewildering.

  Is this her true nature? Were her previous arrogance and tyranny all spoiled by the former emperor of Yuenü Guo?

  Shuiyan lowered his head and plucked the guqin, but when he heard about losing his memory, his fingers were cut by the strings. Was it because of losing his memory that Chiyang Princess was unusually gentle?

  If she hadn't lost her memory, would she have really ended up in a bad way? Thinking like this made her heart anxious, and the gaze she directed at Chen Xi was also somewhat uneasy and fearful.

  It seems that she felt her emotional fluctuations in the morning and evening, slightly nodding her head and smiling gently: "If you're worried that I'll recover my memories and deal with you, then find a safe place to stay. As long as I don't lose this soul of mine now, I won't make things difficult for you."

  She trembled slightly and had to choose where to go?

  Nowhere is safe for her, the North Hall is not safe, living alone is even more unsafe, can she take a gamble? Gamble that Princess Chiyang will never lose her current soul?

  ……

  It was night, when the moon rose to the middle of the sky, Lin Junchen finally returned. He came to Chenxi's room, slightly panting.

  "Morning and evening saw his face relaxed, 'back'?"

  "Princess, things have been taken care of according to your instructions."

  "Alright, I'll send out a notice tomorrow and tell everyone that I will go to Lingyin Temple on the ninth day to thank the Buddha for his protection."

  Lin Junchen furrowed his brow, "Princess, knowing there's danger, why must you go yourself? Why not arrange a substitute?"

  "If you want to catch a tiger, you have to enter its lair. I'll go personally and won't bring too many people. None of the guards from last time are needed, just eight of the top-notch guards left by Huangfu Jinghao will do. Also, I'll bring North Tang Junlian, Ji Jingyuan, and Xiao Bing, these three will come with me, the rest will stay in the mansion to keep watch."

  "Princess!" Lin Junchen looked at her anxiously, hoping she would change her mind. The Black Dragon Gang was very powerful, and he had realized that from their last battle, so why take the risk again?

  Looking at his anxious face with a faint smile, as if self-mocking, "You're quite concerned about me, how is it that you like me?"

  Lin Junchen's face stiffened and he was speechless for a moment.

  He bowed slightly and then quietly withdrew, without saying another word.

  For him, Princess Chiyang was not a good companion, but fate tied them together. He became her husband, and it's ridiculous that neither of them had true feelings for each other. How could he have feelings for a princess with such cunning thoughts?

  There are many sincere people in the world, but this princess's mansion lacks sincerity. Everyone's life is tied to one woman, who would be willing?

  After that night, Lin Junchen continued to stay with Xu Feishuang as usual, and when the princess didn't call them, they would entertain themselves.

  Day after day, the nine-day deadline arrived quickly.

  At dawn, the candidate was announced, and everyone in the princess's mansion knew that Princess Chiyang had to go to Lingyin Temple to pray and express gratitude for the assassination last time.

  Ji Jingyuan had looked for Chenxiu about this matter, but she insisted on going, so Ji Jingyuan fell silent in frustration.

  Early in the morning, Chen Xi put on the princess's formal attire under the service of the maid, the big red dress was particularly eye-catching, fortunately it was late summer now, otherwise the layered clothes would really be hot to death.

  The princess's carriage procession swayed and went to Lingyin Temple, with several pairs of eyes leaving after seeing the Chi Yang princess get on the carriage.

  The capital of Xia Guo is divided into four main streets, east, south, west and north. At this moment, in a deserted temple at the end of West Street, a group of people with different attire gathered together.

  "Deputy, how many brothers did we send this time?"

  The red-robed man known as Vice Envoy wore an eagle-shaped mask and had a soft voice with a hint of killing intent, "Eleven."

  "Deputy envoy, won't this be a bit less? Last time we brothers..."

  "That's enough! This time your mission is to deal with that one person. As for Princess Chi Yang, I'll take care of her myself!"

  Everyone heard that he was going to take action himself and felt at ease. The deputy's move had never failed so far!

  ……
