Both worlds are like dreams
Chapter 41 Night View of Wangxing Tower
Soon, Xue Huang brought Mo Xingyue to an ancient high-rise building.
"Wangxing Tower?" Mo Xingyue said in surprise. "I heard my brother talk about this place. You can see most of the scenery of Shangyang City from here."
"That's right." Xue Huang said with a smile.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry," Mo Xingyue climbed upstairs excitedly, "I want to take a good look at Shangyang City."
The staircase of Wangxing Tower was built in a spiral shape. To get from the first floor to the second floor, one had to walk around the building to reach the staircase on the second floor. When Mo Xingyue climbed up to the second floor, he found that Xue Huang was still standing there. He asked in confusion: "What are you doing standing there? Come up quickly!"
"You go first, and I'll follow." Xue Huang said.
Mo Xingyue looked puzzled, "You didn't set a trap for me, did you?"
"Then I'll go up first." After Xue Huang said that, she jumped up directly, as light as a swallow, and with the help of a few steps on the stairs, she stood on the roof of the building which was more than 20 feet high.
Mo Xingyue could only watch helplessly, and then continued to climb up. After an incense stick of time, he finally reached the top of the building panting, holding the railing and gasping for breath: "You...you can't...do this on purpose?"
"Absolutely not," Xue Huang said, "Because I didn't expect you to be so weak. Didn't Fifth Brother teach you martial arts?"
"He... of course he taught me, but in the palace, princesses are not allowed to practice martial arts. He could only teach in secret, and I could only practice in secret, so over the years, my kung fu was very poor."
"Your Kung Fu is bad because you haven't laid a good foundation. I guess your moves are all weak and powerless, right?"
Mo Xingyue leaned on the railing, looking at the brightly lit Shangyang City, her eyes were surprisingly bright, but her words were full of melancholy, "In the harem, the princess's words and actions must be dignified and proper, even her steps must be light and slow, not to mention her moves."
"In that case, there's no point in being a princess." Xue Huang said.
"So, Brother Lan won't like a girl like me. Fragile, pretentious, and good for nothing."
"Why do you say that about yourself?" Xue Huang leaned on the railing with her elbows, supported her chin with her hands and looked lazily into the distance. "Everyone has their own characteristics. You may not be able to make everyone in the world like you, but there will always be someone in this world who likes you."
"But I want the person I like to like me."
"Are you talking about Brother Qinglan?"
"Besides this, who else can catch my eye?"
Mo Xingyue crossed her arms and looked up at the sky. She had never seen a man as perfect as Brother Lan since she was a child. Moreover, he was gentle as jade, and treated people with humility and courtesy. Even though he was only a prince, the demeanor he exuded was enough to impress anyone.
He was as dazzling as a firefly in the night. Even in the darkness, he could not conceal his brilliant light, which attracted the pursuit and admiration of many girls.
Xue Huang smiled but didn't say anything. She also looked up at the moon rising in the sky.
Seeing this, Mo Xingyue asked: "Hey, I told you I like Brother Lan, you're not angry?"
"I know you like him, and I also know that there are many people in this city who like him. But it also shows that he is really good, and my vision is not wrong!" Xue Huang said with a smile.
Mo Xingyue was angry. She really couldn't understand whether Xue Huang was too confident or too careless. How many women in Shangyang City had Gu Qinglan as their dream lover? And because of Gu Qinglan's brilliant literary talent, there were countless talented women in Shangyang City.
If I were not the Princess Beiling, there would be no comparison.
"I admit that you have a lot of advantages, but I won't give up," Mo Xingyue said, "Brother Lan and I have known each other for more than ten years, and you have only known him for a few days?"
"You've known each other for so many years. If he wanted to like you, he would have made it clear long ago." Xue Huang raised her eyebrows, like a flamboyant little fox.
Mo Xingyue was choked again and said, "Brother Lan is a polite person, he is reserved and introverted, so he won't speak so rashly. Just wait and see."
"You just keep talking tough." Xue Huang said with a smile.
Mo Xingyue snorted and looked towards the long street again. After a while, she secretly glanced at Xue Huang again. She was dressed in white like snow, with clear eyes, like a fairy who didn't know the world. How could there be such a beautiful person in the world? She also had a stunning face, but at this moment, she was inferior to Xue Huang.
Just as he was watching intently, Xue Huang's voice suddenly rang out, "If you want to see it, just look openly."
Mo Xingyue was caught and was startled. She quickly looked away and refused to admit, "Who... who looked at you? I was looking at that building. Stop being so narcissistic."
"is it?"
"Of course," Mo Xingyue asked, "What place is that? It looks so prosperous?"
"Jinxiu Tower." Xuehuang said.
"So that's the Jinxiu Building," Mo Xingyue said, "I want to go and see it."
"Do you know where that is?"
"Beiling's most romantic place. My brother spends all day there, of course I know about it. What? Do you think I can't go? Don't you live there all day too?"
Xue Huang thought: How can it be the same? She is a person in the martial arts world, and she doesn't have so many reputations. But Mo Xingyue is a princess, with a noble status. Even if she doesn't care about these reputations, it will always be unpleasant to say them out loud.
"Let's go!" Mo Xingyue urged.
"It is a place of romance after all. You are a princess. It is not good for your reputation to go there."
"I know," Mo Xingyue smiled slyly, "I'll go secretly. As long as you don't tell anyone, no one will know."
Xue Huang glanced at the night sky and calculated the time. She knew that Mo Ruilin's banquet should be almost over, so she said, "It's getting late. Fifth Brother will be worried if he can't find you. I'll take you back. Next time you leave the palace, I'll take you to other fun places."
"I don't know when I will leave the palace next time." Mo Xingyue sighed.
"I can come find you." Xue Huang said.
Mo Xingyue's eyes widened, "How can we go? It is a serious crime to trespass into the palace."
"I'm not that stupid." Xue Huang said. "Isn't there a Taiji Hall in the Imperial City? There's no one guarding it, I can go in from there."
"You even know this?"
"You are stupid! Wasn't your brother held hostage there? We were fighting there at the time."
"You're stupid." Mo Xingyue snorted and turned to walk away. But after two steps, he stopped again, looked back at Xue Huang, and said awkwardly: "Hey, stay away from my third brother, he's not a serious person."
Xue Huang smiled faintly. She had long known that her third brother Mo Yiming was not a serious person, but she still felt warmed by Mo Xingyue's kind reminder.
She regarded herself as a love rival, but she did not want to use her status as a princess to suppress others, but came to help herself out. As expected of Mo Ruilin, she and Mo Ruilin are siblings, and both have such upright temperaments.
"Thanks for the reminder," Xue Huang said with a smile, "But I think you should ask your third brother to stay away from me. The farther the better. I usually don't hold back when I strike."
"Really?" Mo Xingyue was actually excited. "Then you must teach him a lesson when you have the chance. I have been annoyed with him for a long time. If I were not so weak, I would have beaten him into a pig's head."
"He is your brother after all." Xue Huang said puzzledly.
"Who made him spend his days in debauchery and harming girls? He has two concubines in his house, and countless concubines and maids."
Xue Huang smiled. It was not that she didn't dare to beat up the royal family, but she didn't want to cause trouble for Wei Yunzhou. However, it would be better if Mo Yiming didn't provoke her, otherwise she would have to teach him a lesson.
"Okay," Mo Xingyue said, "I'm leaving."
"Hey," Xue Huang called her, "Do you want to fly again?"
"I don't want to." Mo Xingyue ran away. She would rather take the stairs.
Xue Huang smiled triumphantly. She was just teasing Mo Xingyue, but she didn't expect her to back down so quickly.
Afterwards, Xue Huang also walked down the stairs slowly. Soon she caught up with the breathless Mo Xingyue, and took her back to Tianxiang Tower, just in time to see Mo Ruilin and the others coming out.
"Where did you go?" Mo Ruilin asked curiously. "Did you go to fight?"
"No." Mo Xingyue said.
At this time, Gu Qinglan said: "Your Highness, I will send Brother Wei and Miss Xuehuang back first."
Mo Ruilin nodded, "Thank you for your hard work Qinglan, we will see you another day."
Gu Qinglan bowed and said goodbye to the three princes, then came to Xue Huang and led her into the carriage before she had time to say goodbye to Mo Ruilin.
Wei Yunzhou said that he had something to take care of, and asked Xue Huang to go back with Gu Qinglan first, and then he left alone.
The carriage slowly moved towards Jinxiu Tower.
Xue Huang leaned against the carriage and looked at Gu Qinglan, who seemed to have something to say, so she asked directly: "Brother Qinglan, do you have something to say to me?"
Gu Qinglan nodded.
"About the Third Prince?"
"Yes."
Xue Huang smiled and said, "Don't worry. I know who he is."
"Your Highness did not inform the Second Prince and the Third Prince of the banquet today, but I didn't expect them to come anyway." Gu Qinglan said.
"It seems that they are watching your and Fifth Brother's actions."
"In this fight, only those with absolute advantage can be invincible, so they will try their best to win over anyone who can be used by them."
"I never thought that we, the idlers in the mountains, would be respected like this one day."
"Do you feel that His Highness and I are also trying to win over you and Brother Wei?"
"My second uncle has made his choice. He certainly has his own reasons for choosing you, but you are indeed worthy of his choice."
"Your Highness and I will never let Brother Wei down." Gu Qinglan said.
"I believe you." Xue Huang said with a smile.
