Romance of the Resurrected Crown Princess and the Cold-blooded Wolf King

Once Duanmu Xi returned to the Eastern Palace, she was dragged to the room by Xuanyuan Mo.

“Snow…” While retreating, Duanmu Xi stared at Xuanyuan Mo pressing down upon her nervously. Xuanyuan Mo forced Duanmu Xi to the bedside and she had to slump on the bed.

Seeing that, Xuanyuan Mo pressed Duanmu Xi against the bed and bent down to whisper to her ears, “Xi, do you think that you don’t need me for having babies?”

His husky voice got from Duanmu Xi’s ears into her heart, making her feel as if a rush of electricity ran through her body. His warm breath blew around her neck, for which her body turned red all over from her head.

“Of course… Of course not. I was forced by the circumstances to do that!” Duanmu Xi explained perfunctorily and just didn’t dare to look Xuanyuan Mo in the eye.

“Forced by the circumstances to do that? Good reason.” Xuanyuan Mo arched his eyebrows and stared at this nervous woman banteringly with his amber eyes.

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi pouted her lips and finally looked at Xuanyuan Mo with her dark purple eyes, “We can have three babies in the future. One adopts the family name of Duanmu, another Huangfu and the other Xuanyuan!”

“Good idea.” A smile of satisfaction flashed across Xuanyuan Mo’s eyes. He planted a kiss on Duanmu Xi’s red lips and then said in a husky voice, “Three babies. It is not easy. I think we should start working on it from now on.”

After saying that, Xuanyuan Mo directly locked his and her lips together without giving her a chance of talking. Meanwhile, he also started to take off her belts.

Duanmu Xi got nervous. Did Snow want to…

Someone suddenly knocked on the door, “Your Highness…”

It was Phoenix Five. Duanmu Xi got relaxed and pushed the angry Xuanyuan Mo gently.

A glint of dissatisfaction passed over Xuanyuan Mo’s eyes but he still slightly leaned aside.

Duanmu Xi immediately rose and flattened her messy clothes before walking to the door and opening it.

Upon seeing Duanmu Xi get out, Phoenix Five immediately bowed and said, “Your Highness, Princess Yuehua sends someone to invite you to the Longyin Hall for the party of princesses.”

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi knitted her eyebrows. She was conferred as a princess this morning and now, she got invited to the princesses’ party. It seemed that the princesses of the Qinglong Empire were not only informed but also rather idle.

“Where is the person sent here?”

“Outside the hall.”

“Let’s take a look.” Duanmu Xi walked out of the hall.

Staring at Duanmu Xi walking forward in a flurry, Phoenix Five looked into the room in confusion and saw Xuanyuan Mo gazing at Duanmu Xi’s back with discontentment.

All of a sudden, Phoenix Five felt a chill running down her spine. Oh no. She must have interrupted Mr. Xuanyuan’s plan. Feeling the cold air blowing at her in the room, Phoenix Five immediately ran forward, “Your Highness, wait for me.”

Duanmu Xi arrived outside the hall and saw a strange eunuch.

The eunuch saw Duanmu Xi and immediately bowed to her, saying, “Greetings, Princess Qinglian.”

Duanmu Xi glimpsed the eunuch and said indifferently, “Is it Princess Yuehua who sent you here?”

The eunuch immediately bowed and said, “Yes, I’m here to invite you to the party held in the Longyin Hall under the orders of Princess Yuehua.”

Duanmu Xi slightly knitted her eyebrows. Princess Yuehua was Huangfu Jing, the only daughter of Huangfu Cang. She was born by Qin Shushuang, Consort Qin. According to Grandpa, she had been married. Why did Huangfu Jing invite her to the party? Fine. She was a senior anyway. Since she had sent the invitation, Duanmu Xi decided to go and take a look.

“Such being the case, show me the way.”

The eunuch felt delighted and hastened to answer, “Yes, Your Highness Princess Qinglian, please come with me.” Then, the eunuch turned around and led the way ahead.

“Your Highness, Your Highness, please wait for me.”

Hearing the voice, Duanmu Xi turned around and found that it was Phoenix Five.

Phoenix Five ran to Duanmu Xi and said respectfully, “Your Highness, let me escort you there.”

“Okay.” Duanmu Xi looked at Phoenix Five and nodded.

The two of them turned around and followed the eunuch together only to see that the eunuch stopped there in a pickle.

Seeing that, Phoenix Five put on a displeased look, “Why don’t you show us the way?”

Hearing that, the eunuch immediately knelt on the ground and said in fear, “Your Highness, Her Highness Princess Yuehua said you only needed to go alone. There will be palace servants in the Longyin Hall for you.”

“How dare you!” Phoenix Five shouted furiously. The princess dared to order Her Highness.

The strong coercion given off by Phoenix Five made the eunuch tremble nonstop, “Your Highness, please spare my life. I’m acting under orders only!”

“You…” Phoenix Five wanted to kick the eunuch in anger but she was dragged by Duanmu Xi.

“Enough!” Duanmu Xi’s dark purple eyes glistened. Princess Yuehua asked her to go alone? This must be a banquet with a conspiracy.

Duanmu Xi turned to look at Phoenix Five, saying, “Go back first!”

Upon hearing that, Phoenix Five got anxious, “But…”

“I don’t want to say it a second time.” Her voice suddenly became extremely cold, chilling the two other people to the bone.

“Yes.” Phoenix Five was flurried but she didn’t dare to disobey Duanmu Xi’s order.

“Can you show me the way now?” Duanmu Xi’s lips curved into a sneer. She must see what kind of banquet they had prepared for her.

“Yes.” The eunuch didn’t dare to act carelessly and then immediately rose and walked in front to lead the way for Duanmu Xi.

The imperial palace of the Qinglong Empire seemed to be a bit bigger than that of the Zhuque Empire. After walking for 15 minutes, they finally arrived at their destination.

Staring at the magnificently written words–Longyin Hall, Duanmu Xi frowned. This Longyin Hall was situated in a remote place, which appeared rather desolate and didn’t look like a place for a party at all.

Duanmu Xi turned to look at the eunuch, “Are you sure that Princess Yuehua asks you to take me here?”

“Yeah, the princesses are all waiting for you in the Longyin Hall!” Hearing the question, the eunuch immediately answered with a bow. He looked rather respectful, except that his drooped black eyes sparkled with fierceness.

Duanmu Xi took another glance at the eunuch and walked to the Longyin Hall. As she approached, she was greeted by a rich smell of sandalwood.

What a familiar smell! It smelled quite the same as the Fengming Hall. Was this place where the Huangfu Family worshipped the ancestors? There seemed to be something summoning her and making her go inside subconsciously but upon thinking that the regulation of the Fengming Hall that men were not allowed to go inside, she wondered whether she should go inside then.

Seeing that Duanmu Xi stood at the door of the Longyin Hall and just didn’t go inside, the leading eunuch was a bit fretful and flustered.

Not only the eunuch but also two women hiding in the darkness were fretful and flustered.

“Mother, why do you insist on making her enter the Longyin Hall?” A middle-aged woman above 40 years old stared at the old woman next to her in confusion.

That old woman was Qin Shushuang, Consort Qin while the middle-aged woman was her daughter, Princess Yuehua.

Instantly, a glimmer of fierceness passed over Consort Qin’s old face, “The Longyin Hall is where the Huangfu Family worship their ancestors. According to the regulation of the clan, women are not allowed to enter the Longyin Hall. Even Lin Qingwan who was deeply favored back then didn’t enter the Longyin Hall. As long as this woman enters the Longyin Hall, she will be doomed.”

By then, even the emperor couldn’t bear to punish Duanmu Xi, the elders of the Huangfu Family wouldn’t let go of her. Consort Qin had seen with her own eyes that a woman who broke into the Longyin Hall by accident was beaten to death. At that time, she also wanted to deal with Lin Qingwan with this move but before she took action, Lin Qingwan died from an illness. Unexpectedly, this move was used on Lin Qingwan’s granddaughter.

“Mistress, go inside.” While Duanmu Xi was hesitating, Hongling’s voice sounded in her mind.

Hongling’s voice gave Duanmu Xi an instruction. She believed that Hongling wouldn’t hurt her.

That eunuch saw Duanmu Xi finally enter the Longyin Hall and then his lips curved into a sneer. He scurried to a hidden pier and said respectfully, “Your Highness, she has gone inside.”

“Okay. I will reward you later.” It was Princess Yuehua’s voice that sounded behind the pier.

The eunuch immediately knelt happily, “Thank you, Your Highness.”

The moment Duanmu Xi entered the Longyin Hall, the door of the Longyin Hall was automatically closed.

The Longyin Hall was so large that she felt chilly. When she saw the memorial tablets and paintings of the ancestors, she ascertained her conjecture. That was, just like the Fengming Hall, the Longyin Hall was the place of ancestral worshipping too.

Looking at the memorial tablets of ancestors, she still chose to kneel and give three kowtows sincerely.

Suddenly, something happened just like the situation in the Fengming Hall. A big halo appeared before the yellow cattail hassock, except that the halo was not red but cyan.

A teleporting formation? She didn’t expect that there should be a teleporting formation in the Longyin Hall but she wondered where the teleporting formation led to.

Amidst thinking, Duanmu Xi stepped into the teleporting formation unknowingly. Somehow, she felt as if something was calling her.

Within several breaths, Duanmu Xi had arrived in another space. Looking at the white expanse, Duanmu Xi was dumbstruck.

What was going on? She thought this space should be a tower or something but to her surprise, it turned out to be a space of voidness. There was nothing here–no wall, no ceiling, or no ground. She felt so unreal as if she were stepping in the air.

Looking at the boundless white expanse, Duanmu Xi felt a bit frustrated. Would she be locked here for another three years like the Flame Tower?

In the Longxiang Palace.

“What did you say?” Huangfu Cang stood up abruptly and stared at Eunuch Wang in astoundment.

Judging from Huangfu Cang’s facial expression, Eunuch Wang realized how serious this matter was and immediately replied with a bow, “According to the guards of the Longyin Hall, someone has broken into the Longyin Hall.”

Huangfu Cang thumped the table and snapped, “Rubbish! They cannot even guard the door! What can they do?”

Eunuch Wang knelt on the ground in fright at once and didn’t dare to say anything more.

Huangfu Cang glimpsed Eunuch Wang kneeling on the ground and flicked his sleeves, “Let’s go to the Longyin Hall.”

He must see who was so bold to break into the Longyin Hall.
