When Nie Tian suddenly heard Jing Rui ask about the Meteorite Stone, his expression stiffened, but he immediately returned to normal and replied, "Your Highness, why are you suddenly asking about this?"
Jing Rui looked sincere on the outside, but he was actually shrewd. For him to suddenly ask about the Meteorite Stone, it must not be simple.
"It seems that Brother Nie does know about the Meteorite Stone. I was not wrong about you." Jing Rui did not answer Nie Tian, but laughed and said no more.
He was very shrewd and sharp, perfectly capturing Nie Tian's reaction, so he guessed that Nie Tian must know about the Meteorite Stone.
Nie Tian frowned, but seeing that Jing Rui did not say anything more, he did not ask anymore.
A moment later, under Jing Rui's lead, everyone entered the palace.
The princes could enter and leave the palace freely, but it was not easy to bring others into the palace.
Jing Rui was one of the few princes who had the Holy Moon Medallion, so he could bring Nie Tian and the others directly into the palace.
Then, Jing Rui quickly brought Nie Tian and the others into a large hall.
"Brother, you're here." A gentle and elegant voice sounded in the hall, and then a figure walked out from the inner hall.
This was a young woman with a devastatingly beautiful appearance. She was graceful and noble, and her entire body exuded a noble aura.
Nie Tian looked at the woman and guessed that she should be the Eldest Princess of the Holy Moon Dynasty.
"Sister." Jing Rui saw the woman and immediately went up to greet her, extremely respectful.
Nie Tian could not help but look at Jing Rui. The latter's attitude this time did not seem fake and was very sincere.
It seemed that the Eldest Princess was very important in Jing Rui's eyes.
"Sister, let me introduce you. These are the bodyguards I invited from the Sacred Spirit Academy for you." Jing Rui let Nie Tian and the others come over, then pointed to Nie Tian and said, "This is Nie Tian, the leader of the bodyguards I personally appointed."
The Eldest Princess nodded slightly and looked at Nie Tian, smiling but not saying anything.
Nie Tian bowed slightly to show respect.
He could see that the Eldest Princess was a very smart woman. There was a hidden wisdom in her beautiful eyes.
What surprised Nie Tian even more was that he could not sense the Eldest Princess' aura at all. It was as if she was not a warrior, but just an ordinary person.
It seemed that the Eldest Princess had used a special method to hide her aura to the extreme.
Then, Jing Rui introduced the Eldest Princess one by one, and the Eldest Princess responded with a smile.
"Everyone, please take a seat. The Eldest Princess waved her hand and asked Nie Tian and the others to sit down. Then, she returned to the main seat and said with an elegant smile, "Youwei, please forgive me for my poor hospitality."
"Princess Royal Highness, what are you talking about? We are all country people, and we are unbearably vulgar. If we have done anything wrong, please forgive us, Princess Royal Highness." Lu Fengming stood up and responded. On the surface, she said it very well.
Nie Tian smiled faintly. Of course, he would not stop someone who liked to say such things. He did not know how to say it anyway.
Then, everyone chatted and laughed, and the scene was not too awkward.
From Jing Rui's few words, Nie Tian learned many things.
The Eldest Princess' name was Jing Youwei. She and the second prince, Jing Rui, had the same father and mother.
In the imperial family, siblings of the same mother would usually be very close.
As for Jing Youwei and Jing Rui, their relationship was deeper than that of ordinary siblings.
Their mother had passed away early, and Jing Rui had grown up with Jing Youwei. Therefore, in his eyes, Jing Youwei was both an older sister and a mother.
Nie Tian found it strange. Such a pair of affectionate siblings could support each other in the palace. Why would Jing Youwei marry into the Xuantian Dynasty?
With Jing Youwei gone, Jing Rui would be much weaker in the palace.
"Nie Tian." At this moment, Jing Youwei suddenly spoke. Her beautiful eyes were on Nie Tian, a gentle and elegant smile on her face. "I heard from Jing Rui that your father is Lord Nie Fenghua?"
Nie Tian frowned slightly. He did not expect Jing Youwei to already know about this.
Obviously, Jing Rui had sent someone to inform Jing Youwei in advance and learn about the identities of all the bodyguards.
Actually, there was nothing strange about this. Jing Youwei was going to the Xuantian Empire with Nie Tian and the others. Of course she had to learn about them.
"Mm." Nie Tian smiled faintly and nodded in response.
"Like father like son. Lord Nie Fenghua must be very happy to have a son like you." Jing Youwei smiled faintly and said calmly.
"Eldest Princess, you flatter me." Nie Tian nodded slightly in response. His eyes flashed as he asked, "Eldest Princess, do you know my father?"
"Of course." Jing Youwei laughed. "Lord Nie Fenghua stayed in the Holy Moon Empire for a period of time, and I was fortunate enough to receive his guidance. Although I was not able to acknowledge him as my master, he is like a teacher in my heart. "
"I see." Nie Tian's eyes narrowed slightly. He did not expect that there would be such a thing between his father and the Eldest Princess of the Holy Moon Empire.
"Mm." Jing Youwei smiled faintly and said, "So, you and I are very fated."
The corners of Nie Tian's mouth twitched. He nodded but did not speak.
He had a feeling that this Eldest Princess was definitely not as simple as she looked.
"Hahaha! Youwei, Jing Rui, why didn't you inform your brother that you were having a small gathering here? "At this moment, a loud laugh rang out, and then a figure walked in from outside the hall.
The newcomer was dressed in an embroidered robe and exuded an imposing aura. As he strode in, he gave off a domineering feeling.
When Jing Youwei and Jing Rui saw this figure, their gazes froze at the same time, and their expressions stiffened. Then, they stood up at the same time, walked down from their seats, and said with a smile, "I didn't know Your Highness had arrived. Please excuse us for not going out to greet you."
When Nie Tian and the others saw Jing Youwei and Jing Rui stand up, they also stood up.
The figure that suddenly arrived was none other than the Crown Prince of the Holy Moon Empire, Jing Chenxiang!
Jing Chenxiang laughed and waved her hand. "Youwei, Jing Rui, you're too polite. How many times have I told you not to call me Crown Prince? Just call me brother."
As she spoke, Jing Chenxiang strode over and sat directly on Jing Youwei's seat, snatching the main seat.
Jing Youwei and Jing Rui's expressions darkened slightly, but they did not dare to say anything.
When Nie Tian saw this, his gaze also froze.
The Crown Prince's status was indeed higher than that of the Eldest Princess and the second prince, but this was the Eldest Princess's territory after all. For Jing Chenxiang to directly sit on the main seat seemed a little overbearing.
It was obvious that the Crown Prince and Jing Youwei's politeness was only an act, or even a trick.
At this moment, Jing Chenxiang glanced at Jing Youwei and Jing Rui and said with a laugh, "Youwei, Jing Rui, don't just stand there. Quickly sit down."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Jing Youwei and Jing Rui forced a smile and sat down.
When Nie Tian and the others saw this, they also sat down.
