Chapter 75: Chapter 71: Staying True to Oneself, Finding Male Beauty

Although Shen Jingxian had already put on a veil, somehow the rumor of a peerless beauty appeared on the street spread, attracting a crowd. Now, wearing a veil only seemed more suspicious.

This street was obviously no longer walkable.

Finally, Shen Jingxian was escorted back to the palace from both sides by two people, while Pan Jiaojiao, holding a rabbit lantern, still seemed to be in a daze.

When she realized what she had just done, she was suddenly a little annoyed looking at the rabbit in her arms.

That princess had been so impolite to her during the day and even helped the annoying Song Yan, she should have just let her be gossiped about.

But... Pan Jiaojiao looked at the rabbit lantern in her hand, it was quite cute. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

She stood up and walked a couple of steps with the lantern, feeling it suited her temperament. Suddenly, she paused, recalling that just now when she walked over, Song Yan and the man next to her also seemed to be holding rabbit lanterns, and her face fell.

What a useless thing, only such a thing would be given to her.

Furiously, Pan Jiaojiao threw the rabbit into the hands of a maid nearby and said coldly, "Just find a box and throw it in when you get back."

The maid also didn’t know the identity of the person who gave their princess the rabbit lantern earlier; otherwise, she certainly wouldn’t dare to dispose of it carelessly.

In the evening, Pan Jiaojiao’s mind grew more restless. She couldn’t find peace walking around the mansion, and ultimately, she had no choice but to call the afternoon maid to retrieve the lantern.

Little did she expect, the maid’s face changed suddenly, because seeing that the princess seemed displeased with the rabbit lantern, she took the liberty of giving it to her niece, who liked it very much.

"What? Lost so quickly?" Pan Jiaojiao’s tone was harsh.

Her temper was never good.

"Why don’t you just lose yourself instead." Pan Jiaojiao no longer looked at this maid, called for the steward, and also summoned a bunch of guards.

"This girl is not fit for serving, send her away tomorrow."

The maid immediately pleaded, "Commandery Princess, please forgive me! Please pardon this servant! This servant dares not do it again!!"

"A servant with sticky fingers should have their limbs cut off, this Commandery Princess has already been more than merciful... Shut her mouth, she’s too noisy."

The maid was immediately dragged away, while these guards resignedly began looking for a rabbit lantern.

Pan Jiaojiao knew that the loss of the rabbit lantern was related to the maid but she would not let the guards ask about it.

This was not something someone of her status needed to worry about; she only needed to give the result she wanted, and naturally, someone would accomplish it for her.

It’s heard that the Commandery Princess’s fuss in the middle of the night even alarmed Prince Jing, who eventually used the Hidden Guard granted to the Prince Jing Mansion by the Emperor to retrieve the rabbit lantern.

Shen Jingxian was unaware of this; as soon as she returned to the Imperial Palace, she subtly inquired with the Empress about her own man... ah no, where the Dancing Man was.

Under the Empress’s strange gaze, Shen Jingxian got the answer: it was after you left Yi Fen Palace, turn left, walk straight to the end, then turn right, turn right again, turn left, and walk straight past the door.

Song Yan and Wen Ranchen had given her quite a few gifts, and Shen Jingxian didn’t waste any of them, holding all of it in her arms to find the man she dreamed of day and night.

Of course, there were too many items, and Shen Jingxian couldn’t carry them all by herself, so she had the Hidden Guard help her carry some.

Among these items were cosmetics and fragrances for women, whimsical objects like butterflies made of woven grass and trees with strange shapes engraved in jade, as well as sweet cakes, sugar biscuits... and even a greasy roast duck.

Shen Jingxian clearly hadn’t forgotten about the roast duck, as she walked along, she urged the Hidden Guard beside her, "Da Hei brother, walk faster, otherwise the roast duck will get cold and won’t taste good!"

Da Hei was very dark, which was why he was named Da Hei despite being the fourth oldest in the Hidden Guards.

His boss thought he was not dark enough to bear the name Da Hei, so he forcefully passed the name onto him, thus he became the leader of the Hidden Guards.

Having a dark face has its perks, like intimidating others without needing to express anger, though the downside is that even when he is happy, he doesn’t seem like it because his face is too dark.

Now, holding this load in his arms, he inexplicably felt sorry for the two who industriously gifted the princess items today.

All this for someone else’s benefit... never mind, he’s just a silent Hidden Guard.

"Da Hei brother, is it too much for you to carry? Should I call Er Hei?"

"Subordinate can manage!" Da Hei quickly responded, and with the speed of his answer, his pace quickened too.

"Da Hei?"

Goodness me, he disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Shen Jingxian leisurely walked toward her destination, carrying her items. By the time she arrived, Da Hei was already waiting at the door.

Da Hei’s face was so dark that his features were almost indistinguishable, yet, inexplicably, Shen Jingxian thought of Shi Wang.

She wondered how Shi Wang was doing now.

She had considered finding him, but she had seen Shi Wang’s disguising skills; if Shi Wang intentionally didn’t appear, it would be very difficult to find him.

There was actually a deeper reason Shen Jingxian didn’t dare to ponder; perhaps she had already decided in her heart that no matter how the process changed, the outcome wouldn’t change. Therefore, she felt Shi Wang wouldn’t appear again, just like in the original text.

Shen Jingxian walked to Da Hei’s side, thought for a moment, then had Da Hei crouch down and reached out her hand to feel all over Da Hei’s face.

Da Hei was trained as a Hidden Guard from childhood, never had he been so close to a woman, and his face turned red with urgency.

"Is this really a face?"

Shen Jingxian admitted that, from the first moment upon waking and seeing Da Hei, she felt it was impossible for someone to be this dark unless he had put something on his face or was disguised, like Shi Wang.

In the past, Shi Wang had taught her a lot of peculiar knowledge, including how juice boiled from the flower core of the Stone Orchid mixed with the root of Orchid could remove most disguises.

Just now, when Shen Jingxian touched Da Hei’s face, she got some on her hand, but Da Hei’s face didn’t change at all.

Shen Jingxian was inexplicably a bit disappointed.

So it really was this dark.

"Da Hei brother, sorry, seeing you acting strangely just now, I thought you might be someone in disguise."

Da Hei snapped back to reality and inexplicably felt relieved upon hearing the explanation—he thought, no way the princess could possibly... that.

Shen Jingxian looked at the palace before her, not remote nor luxurious, just modest, but it was perfect for housing the princess’s man.

Shen Jingxian raised her hand, knocked a few times on the Brass Ring, and then pushed the door open.

After not walking too far, she saw Mu Yuan napping in the distance.

He lazily leaned under the palace’s only ancient tree, his clothes loosely hung on him, allowing a clear view of his rosy nipple and impressive abs—just like they had first met at the banquet six years ago.

Splendid, this Mu Yuan, a man who sticks to his roots!!
