"My dear, have you recognized the wrong person? My name is Xiangxiang, not Xianglan."
Princess Xianglan's eyes were trembling wildly. She was extremely excited inside, but she couldn't show this excitement for the time being, and she couldn't admit herself to the Crown Princess in front of her. She gently pulled Mu Zhi's clothes with her hand, lowered her head slightly, and when she raised her head again, her face had returned to its slightly changed appearance.
"Xiangxiang? You are not Xianglan?" The Crown Princess looked at Princess Xianglan again, and seeing the slightly different look on her face, she calmed down a little. "Looking closely, you and Xianglan are indeed a little different. It seems that you are really not Xianglan. But you look so similar to Xianglan, this is also a kind of fate."
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness. Many people say that I look very similar to the late Princess Xianglan. However, we are not the same person after all. We just look similar."
Even though Princess Xianglan had said this, the Crown Princess still stared at Princess Xianglan. After a while, she suddenly came to her senses and realized that she had lost her composure. So she approached Princess Xianglan and grabbed her hand: "Whether you are Xianglan or not, you look so much like her. Can you...can you come to my tent and let me take a good look at you?"
The Crown Princess held Princess Xianglan's hand tightly. Seeing the expectation on the Crown Princess' face, Princess Xianglan finally nodded: "Your Highness, you can go, but I want to take this friend with me."
"Okay! I know you might be a little scared of me. You and her can come to my tent together."
Seeing this, Zeng Wenyu lowered the door curtain and returned to the bed in the tent. With Mu Zhi following him, he was not worried at all about any problems. Moreover, since he could go to the Crown Princess's tent, he believed that Princess Xianglan would eventually reveal her identity, so it would be even less likely that any problems would arise.
There was no conversation that night, and Zeng Wenyu did not hear any movement in the tent next to him. Although he did not know what Princess Xianglan said to the Crown Princess that night, Zeng Wenyu was certain that she must have made her identity clear.
Zeng Wenyu walked out of the tent early in the morning and stood in front of the tent, watching the people in the camp busying about.
The snow was still falling in the sky, which meant that the battle between the new emperor and Wu Yunzi had not yet been decided. The outcome of a fight between such cultivators would not be decided quickly, especially the Qi-refining cultivators, who were able to counter each other's moves and use various spells to cope with them. Most of them used spells to attack each other from a distance, and the fight depended on who had a more solid foundation and who had stronger background.
"But even if it is a fight between Tribulation Realm cultivators, there should be a result today." Looking at the snowflakes in the sky which had become much smaller, Zeng Wenyu's expression was not relaxed.
Zeng Wenyu had met the new emperor before, and when he was in Xinkang City, he was taken care of by the new emperor's urgent order. Even if that was for the sake of the ghost girl, Zeng Wenyu naturally wanted the new emperor to win in his heart. However, the snowflakes from the sky were still falling, just a little smaller than before, which meant that the man named Wu Yunzi had not consumed much, and he could not help for the time being. He could only hope that the new emperor would win a great victory.
They could not intervene in the battles between the Tribulation Realm monks, but Zeng Wenyu could help with matters in the city and distribute food and water to the people in the slums.
When Zeng Wenyu arrived at the square, Prince Xin Wenyuan was already there. His mental state was a little sluggish compared to yesterday, and it seemed that he had not slept the whole night. However, when facing the people in the slums, he still smiled and encouraged everyone.
Without disturbing Xin Wenyuan, Zeng Wenyu found a place and started doing things within his ability, such as splitting large pieces of wood into firewood, carrying some heavier objects and so on.
Time flies when you are busy, and you don't finish until almost evening.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a loud noise was heard from the horizon, followed by a huge gust of wind blowing over from the horizon. Xin Wenyuan, who was sitting in the tent, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood on the desk. Then his face changed drastically, and without bothering to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, he immediately got up and walked out of the tent and looked at the place where the loud noise came from in the sky.
Everyone in the square could see that Xin Wenyuan's face was pale, his fists were clenched tightly, and his body was trembling slightly, but only those around him could see that his eyes were filled with fear.
After a while, the Crown Princess also came over from behind. She saw Xin Wenyuan with his fists clenched tightly, so she walked gently to his side, pulled open Xin Wenyuan's fists, and held his hands tightly.
The dark clouds that had just been blown away in the sky floated back over, and snowflakes that were bigger than before began to fall from the sky continuously. Seeing such large snowflakes, people in the entire slum began to panic. Half an hour later, rumors that "the new emperor has fallen into a disadvantage, and the new country is in danger" began to spread throughout the camp. If it weren't for the Prince's Guards of the Eastern Palace who were maintaining order nearby, these people would probably have already become chaotic.
A group of people stood in the prince's tent. All the officials in the East Palace who could make decisions were present here. At the same time, Xin Wenyuan's family members were also in the tent. They looked at Xin Wenyuan, who had been sitting in the main seat since entering the tent. No one dared to speak.
"Huh..." Xin Wenyuan, who was sitting in the main seat, sighed deeply, opened his eyes and looked at the people from the East Palace in front of him, "Tell me, what do you think of the current situation?"
When the people standing there heard Xin Wenyuan's words, they looked at each other, and no one was willing to speak first.
Seeing his silent subordinates, Xin Wenyuan's face became worse and worse. Fortunately, the Crown Princess beside him gently pressed his shoulder and said, "Your Highness, we still don't know whether His Majesty has won or lost. Moreover, half an hour has passed, and Wu Yunzi has not returned. The best thing to do now is to maintain the status quo."
"I also know that we have to maintain the status quo, but this news has already been spread here by someone with ulterior motives, which means that this news has also spread to other places. I am afraid that the officials in the city will have some ulterior motives. I am even more afraid of my brothers, especially the third and sixth brothers, who are very ambitious."
"Don't worry, Your Highness. Everyone in the East Palace will support Your Highness." At this point, the Crown Princess raised her head and glanced at the people standing below, "Don't you agree?!"
"Yes, yes, yes! We all support His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The civil servants of the Eastern Palace cannot betray His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at this time. We are all His Royal Highness's most loyal subordinates!"
Seeing that the civil officials had expressed their loyalty, the Crown Princess turned her attention to the military generals.
The generals saw the Crown Princess's gaze, and they pushed out the leader of the Crown Prince's Guard. The leader walked to Xin Wenyuan's desk and knelt on one knee: "Your Highness, we generals are not good at speaking, but we swear to follow Your Highness until death. If something really happens, the Crown Prince's Guard will definitely die before Your Highness!"
Xin Wenyuan looked at the leader of the Prince's Guard and nodded, "Commander Zhao, I believe in you. The Prince's Guards were all selected and trained by me personally, and I have no doubts about your loyalty.
As for the civil servants, I know that some of you were sent here by various families. You don't have to show your loyalty to me here. As long as you don't violate my orders, I will naturally not settle accounts with you.
Okay, everyone, go down. Next, we need to stabilize the people outside and prevent them from causing chaos. The emperor's condition is unclear now, so we can only maintain the area under our management. I believe you all have the ability to handle emergencies here."
Everyone stood up and responded, and then the civil and military officials left the tent. The military officers maintained order outside, while the civil officials began to work to stop the rumors from spreading. At the same time, they were also working to find out who was spreading the rumors among the crowd.
Seeing his men all moving, Xin Wenyuan breathed a sigh of relief. He gently squeezed the Crown Princess's hand on his shoulder and said, "You Ruo, do you think we can survive this?"
