I will be a boss in the future world

Chapter 43 Prince’s Kiss

Except for the mysterious woman who just appeared, the group rushed to Enxing's residence anxiously. When they arrived, they found a wizard concentrating on treating Enxing, while Yan sat quietly by the bed and guarded her.

At this moment, Eun-seong was like a finely crafted doll, lying quietly on the bed. Her eyes were closed, her face was as pale as paper, and her hair fell on the pillow like a waterfall, exuding an indescribable beauty and fragility. The room was filled with a faint herbal fragrance, which made people feel peaceful and at ease.

Yan saw them stand up first.

"Has the murderer been caught?"

Celine spoke first: "We caught him. He's someone close to the queen."

Yan frowned and looked at Yuying: "What?"

"..."

Yu Ying glanced at Celine coldly and gritted her teeth and said, "That's not the case. I said it's not Xu Yechen!"

"If you dare to slander me again, I will never let you go!"

Celine pretended to be afraid and hid behind the king, who looked at Yuying with a dark face.

Now, the more excited she gets when Xu Yechen is mentioned, the more Celine will take advantage of this to make her even angrier, and the consequence will be that the king will be even more unhappy.

Then he pushed Xu Yechen in a bad direction, and Yu Ying had no choice but to shut up.

"Wizard, how is the princess?"

Xuan Luo stared blankly at the fragile person on the bed, his eyes slightly red, his voice trembling slightly, and he asked cautiously.

The wizard shook his head and sighed, "The situation is not very optimistic. The poison that the princess accidentally drank has no cure."

Eun-seong fainted after eating an apple, but in the original fairy tale, the queen made the princess eat a poisoned apple, causing her to be poisoned. In the end, it was the prince's true love's kiss that saved the princess.

But now, it was not him who directly caused the princess to be poisoned, but she was also related to him. So, can the prince's true love's kiss save the princess?

"What if it's the princess's true love's kiss? Can it save her?"

The wizard looked at Yuying in shock and asked in amazement: "Queen, how do you know what I'm going to say next!?"

Celine at the side chimed in, "Does anyone believe in this kind of charlatanry?"

"..."

This woman talks too much!

I thought she was just a cannon fodder, but I didn't expect her to be so capable of stirring up trouble?

Yuying really couldn't bear it anymore, so she walked around the king and slapped him. The crisp sound of the slap was particularly loud in the quiet room.

She just wanted to let this guy experience the feeling of ascension again.

"Even if you are the leader of the slaves, you are still a slave after all. I warned you several times but you didn't listen!"

"What right do you have to interrupt the master when he is speaking?!"

Celine covered her face, which had immediately become red and swollen, with resentment, looked at the king aggrievedly, and said timidly: "Your Highness, I..."

Yuying didn't even give her a chance to explain. She walked back to the king, took his hand and spoke sincerely.

"The person lying on the bed right now is your own daughter. You shouldn't give up trying any possible method, right?"

It is better to have less trouble now. The more excited she gets, the more likely Celine will find something to hold against her.

Yuying sighed softly, and her tone softened, "Before the matter is investigated clearly, please don't be angry, okay?"

"Get out."

"?"

Yuying looked at him in confusion.

Celine looked at Yuying with a smug look on her face.

"Since His Royal Highness asked the Queen to leave, I think it would be better for the Queen to leave first."

"I told you to get out."

The king glanced at Celine gloomily and said, "Is it true that you can't tell the difference between the primary and the secondary by giving you a good face?"

He put his arm around Yuying's shoulders and said, "This is your master. The most basic thing for every servant is to learn the word obedience."

"It seems like you don't understand much?"

He looked at Celine with sharp eyes, and his words were not very harsh, but Celine's face had already turned ugly. She quickly bowed and walked out.

"So, what to do?"

The wizard stroked his white beard and sighed, "As the queen said, only the princess's true love's kiss can save her."

Yuying looked at Yan. He was a prince, so should the task of waking the princess up with a kiss be given to him?

"Eun-seong's true love is right here. Whether it's true or not, you'll know if you give it a try."

Yan frowned and said nothing: "..."

The king glanced at him, his tone was indistinguishable: "Why, are you hesitating? Don't you want to save your future wife?"

Yan remained silent and turned to look at Yuying——

Their eyes met, Yu Ying frowned slightly, not understanding what he wanted to say to her.

"..."

"Can we just kiss directly?"

The wizard nodded and replied, "Yes."

Yan stood up and walked to the bed and sat down. Looking at Enxing who had her eyes closed in front of him, he gave her a kiss on the lips as light as a dragonfly touching the water.

"All right."

He stood up and stepped aside.

Everyone's eyes were on Eun-seong, but she remained the same and had not yet woken up.

"Tell me, how do you want to die?"

Hearing the king's words, the wizard was so scared that he immediately fell to his knees.

"Your Highness, it may take some time for the princess to recover. Please wait a little longer!"

"Yes... yes, the princess needs a quiet environment. Yes, Your Highness, do you think we should leave first?"

The king looked impatient and gloomy, obviously not wanting to believe the wizard's lies anymore. Just as he opened his mouth to deal with the wizard, Yuying reached out and pulled his sleeve.

"What he said is not completely unreasonable. Let's go out and wait and see."

The king glanced at the wizard dangerously and said, "Thank the queen for giving you this life. If the princess still doesn't wake up, you can have your head moved away yourself."

After saying that, he walked out first, followed closely by Yan. The wizard also stood up quickly with a sad face, and stumbled out with them.

Yuying and Xuanluo were the only ones left in the room. Seeing Xuanluo's distressed look, Yuying couldn't help but sigh.

Only after everyone had gone far away did Xuanluo muster the courage to take heavy steps and slowly walk towards Enxing.

Step by step……

Until he half-knelt in front of Eun-seong's bed, he held one of Eun-seong's hands and placed it on her face, stroking it gently.

"Yeah, sorry..."

"Don't scare me, open your eyes and look at me, okay..."

"I agree with whatever you say, please open your eyes and look at me..."

Xuanluo was extremely sad, his voice choked with sobs, his forehead pressed tightly against the back of Enxing's hand, and his tears dripped onto the sheets.

This was the first time that Yuying heard Xuanluo call Enxing's name directly since she came to this world.

Xuanluo, who was alienated from everyone, cried when he heard the rules for the first time.

She didn't know whether Eun-seong liked the prince or the knight who had always protected her.

No matter what, she felt that Xuanluo was miserable.

If Eun-seong likes the prince, his love will be like dust scattered in the world, it will become tiny and insignificant and can never be expressed in words.

If Eun-seong liked him, with his well-behaved and introverted personality, he would choose to avoid this relationship because of the gap in their status.

"Do you remember that I promised you a bouquet of fresh flowers every week?"

"You haven't told me what flowers you want now."

"Didn't you say you wanted me to stay with you forever...silly girl..."

Xuan Luo had to speak slowly so that his trembling voice could finish a complete sentence.

But no matter how much he said, Eun-seong just lay there quietly like a doll.

"Queen, do you think I should hate you?"

"what?"

Xuan Luo said this without warning, causing Yu Ying to frown and fix her eyes on his profile.

She just hoped that Xuan Luo would not act on impulse and stop targeting Xu Yechen without any evidence.

"I thought the best love I could give her was to let her go."

"But can she really be happy after I let her go?"

"Why is it that the treasure I hold in my hands is not valued by others?"

"...Don't be too sad, Eun-seong will definitely get better."

Yuying couldn't think of anything to say to comfort him, so she could only say this.

He shook his head gently, his eyes filled with sorrow, and murmured in a low voice: "Queen, have you ever had someone you wanted to protect?"

"Have you ever felt the pain of seeing her being bullied, like an iron whip lashing you hard again and again?"

"Have you ever regretted so much that you wanted to kill yourself..."

"..."

Yuying really wanted to tell him that Eun-seong was an important figure in this chaotic space-time order, and as long as time and space had not collapsed, it meant that Eun-seong would still wake up.

But she couldn't tell him, because even if she told him he wouldn't understand. Yuying could only watch him pour out his pain to her with a headache, but she couldn't help at all.

"So, if God gives me another chance..."

"Even if I betray all my beliefs and people, I will definitely let her live a happy life."

When he said this, his tone was indescribably firm, and every word sounded as resounding as a vow from the bottom of his heart.

Xuanluo slowly stood up and gently left a kiss on Enxing's forehead.

"Have a good sleep, I will definitely save you."

After saying that, he stood up straight, turned his back to Yuying and Eunxing, and wiped their tears.

Yuying looked at Zhien, still the same...

Sudden--

"Yeah...Eun-seong is awake!"

Xuan Luo quickly turned around when he heard Yu Ying's words. When he saw the person lying on the bed slowly open his eyes and look around in confusion, a smile finally appeared on his face.

The king, Yan and the wizard who were standing outside heard Yuying's exclamation and rushed in immediately.

The wizard was delighted: "I told you! I knew the princess needed a quiet environment, great!"

The king waved his hand and said, "Well, go down and claim your reward, and don't be an eyesore here."

"Yes, yes, congratulations to the princess for finding her Mr. Right!"

Mr. Right...

Yuying looked at Xuanluo.

He returned to his normal self, standing aside politely yet distantly.

So, should Eun-seong’s true love be Xuanluo?

Eun-seong slowly propped herself up and sat up, looking at everyone in confusion, "What...what's wrong with me?"

The king stepped forward and touched Eun-seong's head, "You were poisoned just now, and it was your soulmate who woke you up with a kiss."

Enxing followed his gaze and looked at Yan, her cheeks flushed.

"Thank you...thank you."

"..."

"fine."

Xuan Luo pursed his lips and said, "Now that the princess is fine, Your Highness should deal with the murderer."

"It was Xuanluo's fault for failing to protect the princess. Xuanluo is willing to accept the punishment."

"But please do not condone the murderer, Your Highness. Anyone who hurts the princess must not be let off!"

Eun-seong was puzzled, "The murderer? Was the murderer caught so quickly?"

"Who wants to harm me? I don't seem to have offended anyone, right?"

Xuan Luo said angrily: "Princess, it was Xu, the attendant beside the queen, but Xuan Luo can guarantee that this matter has absolutely nothing to do with the queen."

"..."

Yuying held her forehead in pain.

Hearing his words, Eun-seong covered her mouth in surprise, looked at Yu-yeong in disbelief, and exclaimed: "Servant Xu!?"

"That's not the case, Enxing, believe me, it's definitely not him. He has no reason to hurt you..."

Yuying looked at Enxing earnestly, hoping that she could say something for Xu Yechen.

"Yingying, don't be anxious."

Seeing her anxious look, Enxing also got a little excited.

"I also believe that Attendant Xu is not such a person. Could there be any misunderstanding?"

Yuying nodded vigorously, "Yeah! I think so too!"

Yan also frowned and said, "This is a serious matter. On the one hand, it is a matter of the princess's safety, and on the other hand, it is the queen's confidant. It is better to investigate this matter thoroughly before handling it."

She, Enxing and Yan all pleaded for Xu Yechen as princes, so the king couldn't convict Xu Yechen immediately.

"Well, that makes some sense."

"I will give you an explanation after I have thoroughly investigated this matter."

Xuan Luo wanted to say something, but the king had already made the decision, and as a knight he could only obey.

"This time, the task of escorting Eun-seong to school is given to my nephew. I think my nephew has no objection, right?"

Yu Ying frowned. Although the king would not punish Xu Yechen for the time being, she always felt that something was wrong. They didn't even have a very specific enemy target, but someone wanted to assassinate her and even implicated Xu Yechen.

Now that Xu Yichen was imprisoned, she really didn't want Yan to leave unless it was necessary.

"What about Knight Xuanluo? It would be safer to let Knight Xuanluo take care of the princess, right?"

Xuan Luo lowered his head apologetically, his voice inexplicably bitter, "This time Xuan Luo made such a low-level mistake with the food. I am too embarrassed to accept the queen's compliment. This time it's all thanks to the prince."

"It is a wise choice to let the prince escort the princess to school. Besides, the princess probably doesn't want to see me right now."

"Can……"

The king interrupted their conversation and said, "Okay, it's decided. Let them use this time to develop their relationship."

Yan said calmly: "Then let's decide it this way. I have no objection."

Enxing said sincerely: "Thank you, Yan."

Yan smiled slightly: "It's okay."

"Then I'll leave the matter of Attendant Xu to you, father. I hope that Attendant Xu can be cleared of all charges as soon as possible and the real murderer won't go unpunished."

The king looked at her with a smile, "Okay, don't worry."
