To get from the Eastern Palace to the Zhaohua Hall, one must pass through a small garden.
At this moment, Xiao Xixi was crouching in the flower bed.
She huddled her neck, peering through the gaps in the flowers and plants, as if waiting for someone.
The palace maid Baoqin looked at her nervously and whispered, "Mistress, even if you want to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you can't just wait here. This is against the rules. What if you anger His Royal Highness?"
Xiao Xixi, without turning her head, replied, "I've been in the palace for half a year, and His Royal Highness hasn't even glanced at me. If I don't do something, I'll never see him again."
"But even so, you can't—"
"Shh!" Xiao Xixi interrupted her, "Don't talk, someone's coming!"
Baoqin quickly shut her mouth.
The two of them, through the gaps in the branches and leaves, saw a group of people walking towards them.
Among them, the most striking was the handsome young man in a moon-white brocade robe.
He walked at the front, with a cold and distant expression, his posture upright.
Though only eighteen, he already exuded a commanding presence.
Especially his black eyes, which were like deep, cold pools, making anyone who looked at them feel as if they were frozen.
This person was the Crown Prince of the Great Sheng Dynasty, Luo Qinghan.
Xiao Xixi clenched the amulet in her hand and silently counted down in her mind.
Three, two, one!
When she reached the last number, she suddenly rushed out!
But because she rushed too quickly, she didn't control her distance well and ended up rushing too far, directly lunging towards Luo Qinghan!
Luo Qinghan reacted very quickly and immediately stepped aside.
Xiao Xixi, in a posture like a goose landing on the sand, brushed past the Crown Prince and fell heavily to the ground.
Baoqin, hiding in the flower bed, covered her eyes, unable to bear to watch.
The palace maids and eunuchs following the Crown Prince were all startled by this sudden turn of events.
Eunuch Chang was the first to react, shouting, "Who are you? How dare you attack His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?!"
Xiao Xixi lifted her head, her eyes filled with tears, trying her best to look pitiful.
"Your Royal Highness, don't you remember me? I am Consort Xiao!"
Luo Qinghan looked at her coldly, seemingly not remembering that there was such a woman in his harem.
Xiao Xixi got up, first bowed to him, then presented the amulet she had been holding in her hand, pleading desperately.
"I know that Your Royal Highness is going hunting with the Emperor today, and it's dangerous outside. I am worried about Your Royal Highness's safety, so I specially obtained this amulet. Please accept it."
Upon hearing this, everyone present had a strange look on their faces.
Everyone in the palace knew that the Crown Prince hated all those superstitious things the most. Now, Consort Xiao dared to give him an amulet. Was she tired of living?
Sure enough, Luo Qinghan's already cold eyes became even colder.
"Move aside."
Xiao Xixi, holding the amulet, refused to move.
Luo Qinghan glanced at Eunuch Chang.
Eunuch Chang understood and immediately ordered two strong maids to come forward, intending to drag Xiao Xixi away forcefully.
At this moment, Xiao Xixi suddenly lunged forward and hugged Luo Qinghan's long legs!
"Your Royal Highness, your forehead is dark today, indicating a potential disaster. Please take this amulet; it can protect you from harm!"
Luo Qinghan froze in place.
He looked down at the woman who was hugging his leg tightly, his cold eyes as if they could freeze her into an ice sculpture on the spot.
In his eighteen years of life, he had never seen such a bold and reckless woman!
"Take her away and lock her up!"
