Chapter 358: Chapter 10: The Playboy Prince Strives for Success
"Master, what happened?" The alluring woman ran wildly, her hair ornants askew, and her dress torn by branches, making her look utterly disheveled.
"How would I know! He already entered the maze formation. But then he suddenly disappeared." The Daoist growled irritably, looking equally disheveled. That foolish Prince wasn’t lured over, but instead, so many guards ca and imdiately wanted to fight. A few guards were nothing, but a hundred, even with all my cultivation, I can’t withstand that.
This foolish Prince, useless in every way, yet the Emperor treats him like a treasure. Always surrounded by so many guards and hidden guards protecting him. The Daoist cursed silently, quickening his pace to escape.
...
"Miss Tian, ah, are you hungry? Thirsty? How about we head back to the mansion first? Where is your family? I’ll send soone to find them. You surely have nowhere to go now, co sit at my place first." Qi Haoxuan looked at Tianmiao with sparkling eyes, eagerly asking.
"Thank you, I have a younger brother and sister. We escaped separately and agreed to et at the inn if things are fine." Tianmiao expressed her gratitude.
"Soone, go to the inn and find them, bring Tiantian’s brother and sister over." Qi Haoxuan instructed the guard leader. Look at that, he already started calling her Tiantian.
The guard leader hesitantly said, "But, my prince, how will we know who Miss Tian’s brother and sister are?"
"Fool, just find the best-looking ones, won’t you?" Qi Haoxuan scolded the guard leader, "Tiantian is so beautiful, obviously, her brother and sister would look similar!"
Guard Leader: "..." The prince makes such a good point that I can’t even refute it.
As Qi Haoxuan had just brought Tianmiao back to the prince mansion, the Emperor received the news.
"What? Haoxuan found that girl and brought her back. Can’t find out her background? How is that possible? Could she just appear out of thin air?" The Emperor frowned while listening to the report from the hidden guard.
"Your Majesty, don’t be too hasty. If it’s as you say, Haoxuan seems very fond of this girl. If we hastily bring her into the palace, the child might think we’re planning to trouble her. Let’s observe first." The Empress Dowager signaled the Emperor to stay calm.
"I’m just afraid that Haoxuan is foolishly infatuated. What if that girl is a spy from an enemy country or only approached Haoxuan for wealth and luxury? What if Haoxuan gets heartbroken later?" The Emperor was like a father worried to death, speaking with concern.
The Empress Dowager laughed, motioning the Emperor to sit, and then slowly said, "If she’s a spy from an enemy country, we’ll find a chance to make her disappear, and just tell Haoxuan she vanished. She appeared suddenly, leaving suddenly wouldn’t be odd. If it’s the latter, I actually think it’s a good thing."
The Emperor looked at the Empress Dowager confused, how could the latter be a good thing?
"It’s the first ti I’ve seen Haoxuan paying such attention to soone. If this girl is only seeking wealth by approaching Haoxuan, we just give her a lifeti of riches, she’ll accompany Haoxuan his whole life, isn’t that great? It’s easiest when soone has desires, the real trouble is when soone wants nothing at all." The Empress Dowager said earnestly.
"The Empress Dowager makes sense. Then, let’s have soone keep a close watch on this girl." The Emperor felt slightly relieved after the Empress Dowager’s analysis.
"I’m also curious about what kind of girl could make Haoxuan care so much." The Empress Dowager laughed, "Do you rember the ti when Haoxuan stepped on Miss Zhang’s handkerchief?"
