"Oh, you still think of yourself as your master. The emperor has never come to see you in these years. He doesn't even remember you, but he still dares to steal things. He is really a bad person!"
As soon as the girl stepped onto the threshold of the Cold Palace, she heard a sharp female voice yelling and scolding her. She frowned fiercely, wondering how a little palace maid dared to be so arrogant.
The palace maid wore a light pink dress, and had a golden phoenix-shaped hairpin in her bun.
Naturally, a little palace maid can't get such a treasure. The only possibility is to defraud the original master.
The girl's eyes shifted from the palace maid's hairpin to the boy lying on the ground. He looked about twelve or thirteen years old, motionless, as if he was dead.
When the palace maid saw their group coming, she turned around and pointed at them with the stick in her hand and asked, "Who are you? Don't you know that you can't just come here?"
This palace maid looks to be around 28 years old, but she has such a high posture.
As soon as she finished speaking, the woman in green palace clothes beside the girl said, neither humble nor arrogant: "The eldest princess has arrived and she still doesn't kneel down."
The palace maid who was still arrogant took a closer look and was immediately frightened and knelt on the ground with a "pop" and said tremblingly:
"Eldest Princess, why are you here? You are really a villain who is ignorant of the truth and has not done good etiquette. Please don't blame me, Princess."
As she spoke, she knocked her head on the ground, muttering to herself: Why did the eldest princess come here today?
A girl's beautiful voice came from above her head: "Oh, when did I not know that a little palace maid has become the master of a cold palace?"
These words were still light, but they made everyone present feel a tremble in their hearts.
The eldest princess is angry, and someone is going to suffer.
"Eldest Princess, this slave is wrong. Please spare this villain's life. Eldest Princess——"
The girl interrupted without mercy: "Kill."
"Yes." As soon as she finished speaking, the palace maid was immediately dragged out by the two eunuchs without making any unnecessary noise in the process.
"Chang Yue, go see if you are still angry."
"Yes, princess."
Changyue was the palace maid who just spoke. She took a few steps forward to feel the boy's breath and then turned back and replied: "Princess, you are still alive, but she looks seriously injured."
The girl nodded slightly: "Okay, he's lucky, take him back."
"Yes, princess."
The girl's name is Cheng Xi. A month ago she entered the novel called "His Majesty the Emperor Falls in Love with Me". Before that, she was still a social worker working a nine-to-five job, working diligently in the Time and Space Bureau. It's easy to receive an S-level mission and rush through it immediately.
The eldest princess in the original book died of cold in the middle of the night, so Cheng Xi took her place and became the new eldest princess.
In this world, her main task is to help the villain ascend to the throne, and to minimize the damage to the villain's mind caused by his childhood experiences, and to help him become a healthy and progressive young man.
Because in the original plot, the villain became the emperor and massacred countless innocent people. Blood flowed in the capital and the people cried out, so the danger level of this world is also rare S level.
[Sister, can we do it? This world is so difficult. ] A white fluffy little dumpling sat in Cheng Xi's sea of consciousness and sighed. This is the system's little snowball that follows Cheng Xi to complete the task, and is also the assistant who helps her complete the task.
[Haven’t we already brought the villain back? If we take it one step at a time, there will always be a way. Just provide support and leave the rest to me. ]
Cheng Xi was not in a hurry. She was not worried about the completion of the task. The welfare of the Shuttle Bureau was very good, so even if the task failed, there would not be any big punishment, but a new one would be rearranged. Taskers take over the mess.
[Okay, I want to eat snacks. Sister, can you give me some gold coins? There seems to be a lot of delicious food in the mall, but I haven’t eaten it yet. ] Xiaotuanzi got up from his little bed with a groan, looked at Cheng Xi pitifully and said.
[Okay, can I give you two gold coins? ]
They had a lot of gold coins left from their previous missions, but Cheng Xi didn't need them in the mission world now. It was a good use of them to buy food for Xiao Xueqiu.
[Great, after this mission is over and the gold coins are distributed, maybe I can buy a new rug. That rug is very beautiful, with pink flower patterns on it. ] As soon as he lifted the small blanket, Little Snowball's eyes became bright.
[Okay, but don’t you have a lot of blankets? ] Cheng Xi looked at the high blankets piled high with small snowballs in the sea of consciousness. It seemed that there were not five but six blankets. Is this some kind of collecting habit?
[I'm going to buy a new one, hum. ] Little Snowball covered his ears, stubbornly unwilling to listen to the girl say anything more.
Before Cheng Xi could reply, Chang Yue hurriedly opened the door and came in, "Princess, the third prince is awake."
"Okay, come with me and take a look."
Changyue stepped forward to change her clothes. When everything was done, the master and servant walked to the east yard together.
Xu Ye seemed to have been awake for a long time. When he opened the door and came in, the boy was standing up to reach for the kettle on the table.
Cheng Xi saw that his face was sallow and skinny from hunger, and even his lips were chapped. He couldn't help but poured a cup of tea and handed it to him.
"You...who are you...why did you save me?"
It’s no wonder that he didn’t know the original owner. In the original plot, the third prince had been living in the cold palace since he was born and had never taken a step forward. So even though the eldest princess had long dominated the harem, the villain still didn’t care about her at all. impression.
"After all, you should call me aunt. It's not uncommon for aunt to save your nephew." Faced with Xu Ye's question, Cheng Xi calmly used the excuse he had prepared long ago.
Although the original owner is only twenty-one and is about the same age as the villain, she is indeed the adopted daughter of the late emperor. The villain should call her aunt both emotionally and rationally.
"Aunt? Are you the eldest princess?" Xu Ye probably didn't expect Cheng Xi's identity at all. His eyes widened, and when he came to his senses, he hurriedly tried to get out of the bed.
"There is no need to be polite. In fact, there is no distinction between you and me. From today on, you will rest here with me. The emperor is incompetent, so I should fulfill some responsibilities for him."
"Why are you helping me like this?"
Xu Ye didn't know why this girl who suddenly appeared took him in. After living in the cold palace for so many years, his mind was naturally more mature than ordinary children of this age. Getting it also meant that he had to pay the same price, but she What is it for? There seems to be nothing left to use on him.
"Why? Because I see that you look like an emperor, and I just want to teach you well."
Cheng Xi didn't know what to say specifically. The villain was very vigilant. Just when she was hesitant to find an excuse to skip this question, Xu Ye knelt down in front of him with a "pop".
"Determined to live up to the trust of the eldest princess!"
Anyway, he has nothing left, so he might as well give it a try. Instead of returning to the cold palace to live a life without enough food and clothing, he might as well find a way out here.
If this woman had any other intentions, Xu Ye's eyes darkened, and he would definitely kill her without hesitation.
Fortunately, Cheng Xi breathed a long sigh of relief. The first step was finally completed. She asked Chang Yue to arrange palace maids and eunuchs to serve Xu Ye, and they paid for the best food and clothing.
"Princess, why are you helping the third prince like this?" Chang Yue thought for a long time and finally asked her doubts.
Chang Yue didn't understand why the eldest princess went to the cold palace to bring out the unfavored third prince, and even treated him so well. It was clear that the previous princess didn't seem to be such a kind person.
"It's just pity for him. It can relieve my boredom in this palace."
