Prince! The political conspiracy is not a play, the show is real

Tao Yao waited from dawn to dusk, but Chu Huanjun still didn't come home.

She couldn't help but imagine a thousand possibilities in her mind that Chu Huanjun would not come back - the most terrifying thing was that if people outside knew that Chu Huanjun was still alive, there would surely be a bloody storm.

Deceiving the emperor is a serious crime - Chu Huanjun was clearly alive and well, but he deceived the entire world. Even if the emperor loved and doted on him, it would be difficult to bear this serious crime.

Thinking of this, Tao Yao's heart couldn't help but tremble three times. He immediately jumped up from the side of the stove and started spinning in place to think of a solution.

It is not a solution to continue like this. She cannot just sit there and wait for death. She must find a way to let Chu Huanjun know that she has become transparent. It is much better for the two of them to find a solution together than to wait alone in agony.

The logic is correct, but she is a transparent person. How can she let Chu Huanjun know that she has become transparent?

Yes, she had become transparent, but she could still manipulate things. If there was something that could let Chu Huanjun know she was still here, then everything would make sense.

The first thing Tao Yao thought of was to leave some words with pen and paper so that Chu Huanjun could see it when he came back.

So she searched the whole house for paper and pen, but there was not a single piece of paper or a drop of ink. Chu Huanjun was definitely not a person who disliked reading, so why was there not a single piece of paper and pen in this house... Tao Yao sighed as she searched. Perhaps in order to hide his tracks, he deliberately did not leave behind these things that could reflect his identity.

In a flash, Tao Yao had an idea. Without paper, pen, and ink, leaving words on the ground with water would have an expiration date. It seemed that he had no choice but to write in blood.

Tao Yao didn't hesitate too much. She made up her mind, put her finger in her mouth, and bit it hard with her teeth, leaving a bloody wound.

He casually tore off another piece of bed sheet and was about to write something on it. As soon as he made a cut, he was shocked to find that not only had he become transparent, but his blood had also become transparent. There was no way he could leave a blood letter.

Tao Yao completely collapsed and had to run around in the yard. There was nothing she could do at the moment, so she had to think about it again to see if there was any other way.

Just as she had racked her brains to come up with a thousand ways to implement them and was disappointed by the results, the courtyard door suddenly rang. Tao Yao subconsciously rushed to the door in three or two steps, holding her breath, waiting for the person behind the door to appear.

The door opened, and Chu Huanjun's forlorn face emerged from behind it. He wore a black hood and a black cloak that completely obscured his figure. He appeared in the small door frame like a helpless dog, looking utterly forlorn.

Obviously, he didn't find anyone and was very disappointed - fortunately, he was not discovered by people outside and returned safely.

Tao Yao was overjoyed and was about to reach out to hold Chu Huanjun's arm, but suddenly she remembered that he seemed to be unable to sense her presence, so she had to withdraw her hand in a daze.

Chu Huanjun slowly closed the door, then slowly took off his cloak and hood. He had pulled the brim of his hood down very low earlier, so Tao Yao couldn't see his expression—but now that the hood was off, his lost expression was clearly visible.

Tao Yao felt a pang of pain in her heart. She wanted so much to stand in front of him, hug him tightly, and tell him that she was still there and had been waiting for him here - but she couldn't do it.

Chu Huanjun walked towards the bedroom, holding the cloak, and Tao Yao followed closely behind. She suddenly realized that she was like a transparent shadow, silently following behind him, trying to make him look back at her.

But the existence of the shadow is always ignored, and Chu Huanjun did not look back.

When he opened the bedroom door, it was still empty. Only the empty table made Chu Huanjun suspicious. It was strange that the bowl of noodles was clearly there when he left.

"Did we get robbed?..." Chu Huanjun smacked his lips impatiently. He didn't know how to cook or wash clothes in the first few days after he came here, so he found a nearby village and kidnapped a few mute servants to serve as servants. But later he found that these mute servants were not diligent in their work and were always stealing his food and things, so he gave them a little money to send them away.

Aside from the mutes and Lu Che, no one else would have known how to get to this place—Lu Che would definitely not reveal the address, as he had already made a deal with Lu Che. So, at this moment, Chu Huanjun naturally thought that the mutes were here to get a free meal again.

"You really have no manners..." Chu Huanjun cursed with a cold face.

Tao Yao, standing by, naturally had no idea who Chu Huanjun was scolding. Since she was the one eating the noodles, she subconsciously assumed he was scolding her. She couldn't help but yell in grievance, "What do you mean by 'no manners?'! I ate all the noodles and cleaned up the table and kitchen. Not only did I not waste any food, I was also considerate, reasonable, and clean. How could I be 'no manners'?"

Unfortunately, Chu Huanjun couldn't hear her shouting, and he was about to go out again with his fists raised. Tao Yao was anxious, and shouted, "Hey, don't go out, it's dangerous!" while grabbing a stool and blocking Chu Huanjun's feet.

Chu Huanjun was quick-witted and dodged the stool's "sneak attack" with a light leap. Tao Yao loosened her grip, and the stool rolled to the side.

Chu Huanjun looked down at the stool that had rolled to the side hesitantly, somewhat confused.

Could it be that the ground is slippery due to the rain, and even this four-legged bench can't stand?

Chu Huanjun squatted down and checked the ground, then picked up the stool and looked at the legs left and right, but could not see anything strange.

Tao Yao squatted aside, feeling anxious.

If Chu Huanjun had a little imagination, he would have discovered her.

"It must be those mutes who came to steal food and were so petty and mean. They deliberately set a trap here to harm me. They really have no manners..."

Chu Huanjun had a cold face, thinking that he couldn't let this matter go. If he didn't teach those mutes a lesson, he would really be looked down upon by them.

With this thought, Chu Huanjun put on his black cloak again and rushed out the door in a rage. Tao Yao chased after him, shouting all the way, and could only helplessly watch Chu Huanjun go away.

Tao Yao was so angry that she could only stamp her feet on the spot, thinking that this was definitely not a solution and the problem had to be solved from the root.

Why do I become transparent?

She had traveled through time and space, and didn't belong to this world. This body didn't belong to her either. Could it be that her body had become transparent because this world was forcibly erasing her, a person who didn't belong here?
