One of the ministers said, "The previous Emperor passed away. I hope that the Crown Prince can ascend the throne as soon as possible."

The Duke of Beichang did not speak a word, and only smiled at the Minister in front of him.

Another official followed up and said, "Crown Prince, the country must not be without kings. Please ascend the throne quickly."

As the Duke of Beichen heard this, his smile became even wider, "Hurry up, that's something, do you want me to ascend the throne tomorrow?" The Duke of Beichen took one last look at the kneeling official, "What, you all came, my beloved second brother actually didn't come."

One of the ministers quickly replied, "The Second Prince is not feeling well and is recuperating."

Hearing this, the smile on the Duke's face was so wide that it almost overflowed, and he said, "Then tomorrow I will ascend the throne."

Actually, there were many things that could be seen through with a single glance. It was just that, because of love, she would rather be blind than to hold that thing in her arms.

And this was an obvious trap, with golden edges and an extremely luxurious conspiracy. No, actually, it couldn't even be called a conspiracy. However, he had to rely on his knowledge that the Duke of Bei Chen would definitely be willing to come in.

They knelt on the ground and shouted in unison, "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!" They had actually hoped that he would ascend the throne at this very moment.

Such luxurious and noble words symbolized all rights, but at the moment, it was just an elegy specially set for the Duke of Northern Chen.

Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!

How sad and ironic.

When all the officials had left, only the Duke of Beichen was left in the hall. He was clad in a blue robe, and he was in a sorrowful mood. The smile on the Duke's face finally disappeared, and he called out softly, "Imperial Father, Imperial Mother."

Bei Chen Han was not wrong, when he returned, there was no need to talk about corpses, they were all long gone, all buried in the mausoleum. Even if he wanted to see the mausoleum, he would have to leave the capital and ride on horses for a few days to get there.

The viscount closed his eyes, "Nore, where are you?"

Early in the morning, Xi Ling kicked open the door to Su Nuo's room and fiercely walked in. "Hey, you ugly bastard, do you have any manners at all?"

She was truly tired, both physically and mentally. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Xi Ling irritably appearing in her room. Huala! Su Nuo immediately pulled over her blanket, completely wrapping herself in it.

Xi Ling disdainfully glanced at Su Nuo. "Fuck, even I feel disgusted just by lying there naked like that. Who knows, maybe you will dirty my eyes."

Once Su Nuo heard his words and saw the difference between the peerless beauty of Xi Ling's face and her own, she felt that it was truly an unnecessary action. However, in front of an unfamiliar man, she could not do it no matter what.

"You ugly bastard, how long do you want to sleep? Politeness, politeness, do you even know? You ugly bastard, you're just something Bei Chen Han left here, yet you still dare to sleep so late."

Su Nuo was scolded so early in the morning by Xi Ling that she did not have time to think about those sad things. She blushed and lowered her head, saying, "I, I will get up immediately."

Xi Ling heavily snorted. "Quickly!" He then swaggered out of the room without even closing the door for Su Nuo.

Su Nuo looked at the brightly opened door and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Praising her made her feel that this person was actually a good person that he would seriously analyze for her must have been her imagination. Su Nuo did not dare to delay any longer and hurriedly put on her clothes. She knew of Xi Ling's bad temper. Furthermore, she did not dare to provoke him at all.

However, what Su Nuo didn't know was that what she saw was but a drop in the bucket.

"What are you still doing there? Hurry up and cook for laozi, laozi is about to starve to death." Xi Ling's voice sounded.

Su Nuo turned around and saw Xi Ling's face. His eyes were filled with fire and she could not understand how a person could be so easily angered. Moreover, his temper was actually this bad. Seriously.

"Damn, you ugly bastard, why are you still standing here? Why aren't you going?" The West Tomb was getting even hotter.

Su Nuo sighed, "I don't know where the kitchen is."

Xi Ling acted like he was looking at trash as he said impatiently, "You ugly bastard, it's fine, but your IQ is so low. What's the point in living on? What a waste of food."

Su Nuo lowered her head and was depressed. The person who clearly didn't let her die yesterday was this person, yet now he said this to her. Of course, she would never say it out loud.

Xi Ling ruthlessly scolded Su Nuo. Only then did he fiercely say, "Where are you? Hurry up and go."

Su Nuo answered and dragged her left leg towards the kitchen.

Everything in the kitchen was very complete, and apart from the food being fresh, everything else was extremely rare and precious. As Su Nuo looked at them, she couldn't help but feel that this person was too extravagant. Only then did she recall that ever since she had first seen that person, the carriage made by that person was also extremely luxurious, and she wished that the best things in the world could be cut onto it.

It seemed that regardless of who lived there, used, or dressed, they had to be the most extravagant!

Su Nuo smiled. After all, he was the ninth prince of a country. He would definitely be an extremely favored prince.

Thinking up to here, Su Nuo calmed down. Although she had decided to stay alive with the viscount, she didn't know anything about him. She didn't know if he had cured the insect poison, and she didn't know if he had returned, and even more so, if he was alright.

Perhaps she should ask the man who might have told her.

Xi Ling sat at the pavilion. Just as he was getting impatient, Su Nuo finally brought out the side dish and the plain porridge. Xi Ling saw the plain porridge and his temper immediately rose: "F * ck, you ugly monster! Do you want to poison me to death? You actually let me drink this."

Su Nuo's words were swallowed back in his throat just as he was about to ask about it. He looked at the porridge on the table and said, "I didn't put any poison in it."

Xi Ling heard Su Nuo's words and immediately said, "You ugly bastard, you still want to poison? How can there be an ungrateful woman like you in this world? You are filthy, ugly, and malicious."

Su Nuo lowered her head. She did not understand why this person was so angry, so she could only silently accept. In any case, she had stayed by her master's side before this.

However, although her master would punish her and his methods were ruthless, her master would never do this.

He was like a spoiled child, he thought. As long as he didn't like her at all, he would cause trouble for no reason, or rather, he simply didn't like her now.

"Hey, you ugly bastard, are you listening to your father?" Xi Ling stood up and walked in front of Su Nuo. When Su Nuo raised her head, she saw his extremely beautiful face and was immediately stunned. She had never seen Xi Ling's face so close before.

When Xi Ling saw Su Nuo staring at his face, his anger began to rise. "What are you looking at? If you keep on looking, I'll dig out your eyeballs and feed them to the dogs." This sentence successfully made Su Nuo lower her head. Xi Ling heavily humphed. "Hurry up and change all the plum blossoms for me."

Only then did Su Nuo notice the plum blossoms wherever she could see them, and the faint fragrance she had smelt earlier must have come from them as well.

"I know."

Xi Ling didn't even look at her. "I know, but I'm still not going." Su Nuo sighed deeply and left. It seemed that before she asked him a question, she would have to wait upon him first.

Su Nuo walked forward to the garden where the Plum Blossom Tree was planted. Su Nuo walked forward and was about to break the tree when Xi Ling suddenly saw something and walked in front of her. "You ugly bastard, what are you doing? How dare you pick my plum blossom?"

For a moment, Su Nuo was speechless. If she did not remember wrongly, this person had told her to pick it. Su Nuo thought for a moment, then carefully reminded him, "You asked me to pick that —"

Without waiting for Su Nuo to finish, Xi Ling snappily said, "I'm asking you to go to the top of the mountain and pluck it."

Su Nuo did not understand what was going on. She slowly raised her head and looked towards the peak of the mountain. Xi Ling said, "Are you still not going?"

Su Nuo swallowed her saliva. These few days, she had tried nearly all the paths down the mountain. The process was extremely miserable and ended in failure. Now she was forced to climb the mountain again. Su Nuo instinctively felt disgusted.

"Fuck, are you ugly or deaf? Why aren't you going?" Xi Ling turned around.

"I know." Su Nuo felt half of her strength drained from her body. She had just been prepared to live well, yet this person actually wanted her to drag his leg to climb the mountain. Seriously —

But Su Nuo still went. Obeying was the nature of a female slave.

The way up the mountain had been artificially repaired before. Although it was much better than the mountain roads filled with weeds, it was still very steep. Adding the fact that Su Nuo was limping, it was really fatal.

In an instant, a sea of flowers appeared in front of Su Nuo. Not only were there plum blossoms, but there were also many flowers that Su Nuo did not know the names of.

Su Nuo was stunned and forgot about the pain in her foot. When she came back to her senses and looked down, blood was already flowing out of her leg. Su Nuo could only smile wryly and use her right foot to jump into the Plum Blossom Forest.

Su Nuo didn't like plum blossoms, but at this very moment, she felt that the plum blossoms could also be this beautiful. No, it should be said, the flowers could also be this beautiful.

However, with a single glance, one could tell that the person who planted this sea of flowers was the one who had asked them to plant it on purpose. Su Nuo suddenly had a thought. Could it be that people were good-looking, so the things they grew were also good-looking! Su Nuo was amused by her own thoughts.

"Gulu." Su Nuo suddenly realized that she hadn't eaten yet, but that person didn't even let her eat. She was too embarrassed to eat. Su Nuo picked one of the fruits when her sight fell on the plum tree. She was eating it here, so that person shouldn't be able to see it! As she thought of this, she wiped it off and took a bite. Immediately, her entire face wrinkled, causing tears to flow down from her eyes.

Su Nuo swore that she had never felt this sour in her life before. She really wished she could faint on the spot!

Unfortunately, she couldn't pass out, so she could only wait for the feeling to pass. Finally, after the feeling passed, Su Nuo picked up the plum blossom and headed down the mountain.
