Xiao Ting thought and thought, almost scratching her head, still didn't come up with a reason, but she still felt that something was missing, "It's impossible, the predecessors used magic to seal it, and they also used the four-in-one technique mentioned by the master. It can be seen that the protected thing is extraordinary, how could it not be there?"
So she lay on the outside of the coffin and circled around it again. Even if the other coffins were made of stone, there were carvings on them, but this one was fine, the top was flat and nothing.
Such a discovery made her discouraged again.
"It's late at night, go back and rest." A cloud parted in the sky, and the moonlight shone in along the eight broken door frames.
Ninth Prince frowned slightly, lifted Xiao Ting's collar, let her pick it up, and threw it back.
Then he walked over and put the lid on the coffin very coolly. As for other things, it was Brother Huang who worried about him, not him.
"That's no good, I'm in charge of this matter, I must investigate it clearly." Xiao Ting refused to leave, and ran back again, trying to stop him.
The Ninth Prince raised his eyes and glanced at her, then said lightly, "I don't care who you are in charge of, this king is only in charge of you."
"Eh..." Xiao Ting was speechless for a moment, choked up speechless, not knowing what to say
The most important thing is that the Ninth Prince seems to be a different person now, and he will always say some strange things, which makes her tremble with fear.
The Ninth Prince did not pay attention to her expression, and placed the coffin lid on the coffin with both palms.
It is about to be covered.
When Xiao Ting realized it, she was about to stop her, but when her gaze swept to one place, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said, "Wait..."
"kindness?"
Ninth Prince frowned, this girl is really hard to deal with.
"Come here and help, there seems to be something inside the coffin lid?"
Something rolled her eyes just now.
The Ninth Prince just pushed it away with his palm strength, and the coffin lid did the same.
To him, this heavy thing is like playing with it in his hands, anyway Miss Xiao Liu can't do anything with it, she can't even kick it.
They turned it over, and they saw that there was a stone box in the middle of the coffin lid.
Yes, a real box with a symbolic lock on it, but no lock.
It is square and square, with an octagonal shape on top.
Xiao Ting took a step back, hid behind the Ninth Prince, and said expectantly: "My lord, come here."
Lord Nine glanced at her lightly, and then glanced at her again, just when Jiu Xiaoting was looked at a little hairy, and the smile on her face could hardly be maintained.
Ninth Prince stretched out his right hand and swiped, and with a click, the stone box split into two halves instantly.
Xiao Ting hurriedly ran out from behind him, separated the broken stone box, and gently pinched it with her fingers, wow, it's a real stone.
The skin on her hand was about to fall off, but she still couldn't pinch it.
She glanced at the Ninth Prince without showing any trace, he was not human, not human.
This man is getting more and more unpredictable.
In fact, she didn't know that the Ninth Prince was even more shocked.
He doesn't know how much he weighs, but since he woke up that time, his strength has become stronger and stronger, and his internal strength has been increasing day by day without any trace, so he can't explain it.
It was as if there was another person living in his body, and that person was in charge of everything.
"Yeah, another little box."
Xiao Ting's surprised voice brought him back to his thoughts.
"Don't tear it down, give this to the emperor."
Seeing Xiao Ting's eyes shining brightly, the Ninth Prince wished to open them immediately.
He stepped forward to collect the things, pulled Xiao Ting and walked to the place where he lived.
The moon is high in the sky, and it is gradually slanting to the west. The imperial hospital of Nuoda University has long been empty.
Right now it's just the two of them here.
Xiao Ting was forcibly brought back by the Ninth Prince and asked her to go to bed to rest.
But Xiao Ting insisted on letting him open it to see what was inside.
This is a rectangular box, warm and cool to the touch, and it is not ordinary when touched.
He refused to allow the Nine Kings.
"I discovered that thing first, you are Ming Qiang."
Xiao Ting was dissatisfied, her eyes filled with accusations.
"It's useless to you." The Ninth Prince sat on the side of the bed without explaining, pointed to the bed, and signaled her to go to sleep.
Xiao Ting angrily moved to the side, further away from the bed, "I just want to see."
Ninth Prince's eyes swept over, although he was sitting, a little lower than Xiao Ting, but he was like a parent admonishing him, full of confidence.
"Knowing too much is not good for you."
"If you don't tell me, who will know?"
Xiao Ting has her own set of fallacies, she is just curious, very curious, not to mention that this is something that happened thousands of years ago.
Even if it was protected by the masters of the past with exquisite techniques, it was enough for her to die of curiosity.
"The king will tell."
The Ninth Prince lowered his voice, apparently his mood had changed.
Xiao Ting: "..." I really want to spray him to death with a mouthful of salt water, who is this
"sleep."
Xiao Ting stared at him bitterly, but there was nothing she could do about it. If she persisted in the stalemate, she would not be able to gain anything.
No way, she can't beat this non-human.
"Just take a look." Xiao Ting bargained.
"If you say one more word, this king will leave immediately."
The Ninth Prince issued an ultimatum.
Xiao Ting didn't even take off her shoes, she flew onto the bed with a whoosh, then quickly covered the quilt, pressed the corners of the quilt to her neck, and looked at the Ninth Prince with big innocent eyes.
Said that he was very obedient, and did not say a word.
"Close your eyes and go to sleep."
At first Xiao Ting just pretended to close her eyes, she wanted to wait for the Ninth Prince to fall asleep to see if she could find a chance to strike.
But before she knew it, her thoughts became a little chaotic, and when she woke up again, it was already the time when the cock crowed.
And the person whose location she could see as soon as she opened her eyes had disappeared with her treasure.
Xiao Ting turned over cleverly, and was just about to run when she realized that she was not wearing shoes.
Huh
She obviously didn't take off her shoes last night in order to be a thief. Does she still have the good habit of taking off her shoes in the middle of the night and putting them neatly
Well, I can't control that much right now.
Miss Xiao Liu put on her shoes, ran out quickly, and rushed directly to the imperial study.
To see the emperor.
But the emperor is still in the early court, how can she see it.
So she made the next best thing and said she wanted to see the Ninth Prince, but the person who informed her was a stranger, with a submissive look, saying that he was of low status and not qualified to go to the palace.
So, the Ninth Prince is in the Golden Palace
Miss Xiao Liu had no way out, so she had to come to Yaochi Palace.
She didn't hide anything, and told Concubine Xiao what happened to her, "Auntie, what do you think it could be?"
Concubine Xiao Gui's body is weak and has only improved a little recently, although her complexion is still white, fortunately it is no longer transparent and has some anger.
Hearing this, he gave her an angry look and said, "You silly girl, what day is it today?"
"Days?" Xiao Wei didn't understand what he meant, thought for a while, and said, "New Year's Day."
"It's not early today."
Concubine Xiao Gui said such a sentence, Xiao Ting finally realized that she was played by the little eunuch just now.
"I see. The prince and the emperor must have been in the imperial study at that time. They were hiding from me on purpose, so I went to them."
From Xiao Ting's point of view, it's obviously her credit, but it's disgusting that these two people even want to hide it from her.
"Tinger."
Concubine Xiao Gui raised her voice, stopped her and said, "Sit down first."
"aunt… "
"My lord is right, don't inquire about what you shouldn't know, and don't care about what you shouldn't."
Concubine Xiao is well versed in how the Ninth Prince behaves, this time must be unusual, this girl has a fiery temper, if she really knows something, telling her is tantamount to telling the world.
"aunt… "
"It's useless to call aunt." Concubine Xiao insisted, "That's the end of this matter. I have other things to talk to you about. Sit down."
Seeing her aunt's serious face, Xiao Ting obediently sat beside her, waiting for a lecture.
"What expression do you have?" Concubine Xiao Gui was also amused by her sudden obedience.
"The expression of fear." Xiao Ting said solemnly.
"Okay, my aunt won't eat you again, I have something to talk to you about letting you sit down."
Before Xiao Ting could reply, Concubine Xiao Gui asked one thing, "Ting'er, have you ever thought about the future?"
Xiao Ting nodded, "Don't worry, aunt, I've already thought about it."
"Oh, then tell me." In fact, Concubine Xiao Gui was worried about Xiao Ting's lifelong affairs, but this time, she didn't want to go against her niece's wishes.
"Speaking of which, Auntie, I have something to ask you."
"What's the matter? Tell me."
"I want to stay by the Ninth Prince's side for the rest of my life, but I don't know what kind of identity I can stay with."
"You, you want to stay with the Ninth Prince?" Concubine Xiao was surprised, what kind of plot is this
"Yes, I will take care of him."
Of course, this is just Miss Xiao Liu's statement, and it is also her true inner thoughts.
But when Concubine Xiao heard this, it had another meaning.
"You really think so?"
Xiao Ting nodded solemnly, she thought very clearly that the Ninth Prince cannot do without her, and she also didn't want the 'person' she created with her own hands to become a big villain.
"But the marriage between the two of you was annulled by the emperor himself. If you want to get married again, it may not be easy."
"What?" Xiao Ting was dumbfounded, did she mean that
She just wanted to stay by the Ninth Prince's side, but she didn't want to be a woman for him.
The aunt and nephew hadn't finished talking when someone outside reported that the Empress had come.
Xiao Ting and Concubine Xiao looked at each other, Xiao Ting asked: "Auntie, what is she here for?"
I can't say I hate it, but Xiao Ting doesn't have a good impression of the former Princess Yuyue and the current empress.
"Look and you'll know." After Concubine Xiao Gui said this, her demeanor changed.
"Please!" She signaled the maid to invite the queen to come in.
Xiao Ting still finds it unbelievable that a girl in her teens should become a queen.
No matter how idiot she is, she knows that with the relationship between Yuyue and the emperor, how can they be husband and wife
Simple is bullshit.
Well, she, a non-conspiracy theorist, is ready to listen to a palace fight.
But what disappointed her was that before the queen came in, someone was talking about the Ninth Prince leaving the palace.
Xiao Ting immediately asked Concubine Xiao Gui to resign and chased her out.
After this pursuit, they arrived in front of the gate of Nine Princes Mansion.
