Ye Tian Yun had a thoughtful expression as he watched the Crown Prince step out of the carriage and head inside the garden.
"What's he here for?" Jun Xie asked with a frown.
Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "Who knows, maybe he's also here to relax? I am not much surprised, to be honest."
"Hm, Brother Fang, what do you think of him as a person?" Jun Xie asked, "You know, last ti I t him in the Old Royal Palace a few months ago, he double-crossed us by organizing the ambush."
Ye Tian Yun smiled, "You can call Brother Ye, and isn't King Xin the main preparator?"
"Yeah, he is, but his son must have been an accomplice. Or else, how did we get ambushed even though the routes were changed."
Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "You don't have to hold a grudge against this guy; it's just not worth it."
Jun Xie shook his head, "Nah, what I hate most is betrayal, and this guy betrayed us. We lost half of the entourage in that incident. Those disciples have families, you know?"
Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "Almost everyone has soone who loves them, but that doesn't an we should stop killing our enemies. So, stop acting like an ignorant child. This world has never been a peaceful place."
Jun Xie sighed, "But still, I am kind of disappointed in this guy. I genuinely thought he was a good person."
Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "Now that's kinda stupid. That guy was planning to kidnap a young girl through you, and you thought he was a good guy, but when he betrayed you, he's not a good guy anymore.
Brother Jun, no one in this world is good or bad - it's just a matter of interest."
"You sound like a sage." Jun Xie replied.
Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "Well, then listen to my preaching - maybe you might ascend soday."
"Ascend to the realm of deceit?"
"..."
…
The Purple Spring Garden was surprisingly airy today. There were very few people in the garden.
When Ye Tian Yun and Jun Xie reached the usual place, they were also surprised by the scene.
"Is sothing happening today? Why do I only see like five people, including that Burger Queen girl." Jun Xie asked.
"Five people, but I still don't see the princess."
"And the Crown Prince. Wasn't he just ahead of us? Where did he disappear to?" Jun Xie looked around with a thoughtful expression.
Ye Tian Yun also looked around while replying, "Well, let's roam around first. Oh, and keep the illusion running, no matter what happens."
"Alright."
…
As both of them road through the garden, they soon reached a pretty distant area and encountered the person they had t earlier - Crown Prince Xin.
"I kinda knew we were going to run into him." Jun Xie said.
Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "That was kinda natural. Actually, I wanted to et him of my own accord. Just want to test sothing out."
Just as Ye Tian Yun was about to step forward, a shout from behind surprised them.
"Brother, you're here?"
They turned around, and to their surprise, it was Princess Xin Xue Qing.
'Family Drama Alert…' Jun Xie whispered as he and Ye Tian Yun stepped to the side.
"Third Sister…" The Crown Prince frowned at his sister as she walked to the seat and sat beside him.
"I didn't know you liked to co here, Elder Brother." Princess Xin Xue Qing said.
The Crown Prince rolled his eyes, "Nah, why would I like to co here? I wouldn't have co if not for you."
"Hm? Why would you co here to et ?" Xin Xue Qing was confused.
"No, not to et you, but to et your little friend.
"My friend…"
"Yeah, the guy who you have been getting too close to."
"..." Xin Xue Qing, "I have t that guy for like… three tis?"
The Crown Prince shrugged, "Doesn't matter. Did you forget what we discussed? I don't want you to get into any love drama. And the Grand Spirit hunt is coming; did you sohow miss the Royal Edict by Father? You will be a married lady in about eight months, so it's better if you start behaving like one!"
Xin Xue Qing frowned, "Brother, how can you even think about falling in love with soone? I have loads of better things to do."
The Crown Prince rolled his eyes, "I am more worried about the guy because you might try to kill him too."
"..." Ye Tian Yun.
"..." Jun Xie.
Xing Xue Qing's expression scrunched, "What do you an by that? I am not a murdering maniac."
The Crown Prince gave a disdainful expression, "You know yourself better. Last year it took three months to settle the whole matter. If you try to kill this guy, too, things will be much more complicated. You don't understand that the whole political scene is in a very delicate situation at this mont, and the last thing I want to hear is you creating trouble for ."
Princess Xin Xue Qing frowned, "Brother, past is past, and that guy isn't dead yet, is he? He's still alive and well."
Crown Prince Xin sighed, "Well, I don't care about him. He's just a weak dog from a shitty clan. To be honest, I am surprised you failed to kill him. Was it really that hard?"
Princess Xin shrugged, "I guess it was his lucky day. He survived from three stabs through his heart and getting thrown from a cliff."
The Crown Prince exhaled, "Sigh, let's forget about that and focus on the current topic. What is the na of this guy you're eting? Which clan does he co from? And how co you're not suspicious of him? There is never a record of him entering the garden, and neither does anyone know him."
"What about the burger girl? She did talk to him one day. They seem to know each other." Princess Xin said.
"...She doesn't know him. So you will have to tell . What's his na?"
"..." Xin Xue Qing.
"What happened? Why are you silent."
"Um… I… I don't know."
"You don't know? Not even his na…?"
"Yeah… I don't know his na."
"...."
