"Crown Prince Consort, the crown prince will set off for Later Qin at noon. Crown Prince Consort, please dress up and don't forget etiquette."
After saying that, the palace maids brought in a red palace dress and several boxes of rare treasures.
The palace dress was woven with the feathers of a fire luan from the north. It was light and elegant, and the color was like fire.
Among the rare treasures, there were all kinds of pearl jewelry, pearl hairpins, and accessories. Each of them was priceless.
These were all personally selected by Dugu Xiu in the past two days.
As a martial artist, when had he ever done such a thing?
What surprised Dugu Xiu was that Yun Sheng didn't have a good impression of him, but Yun Sheng accepted all the things he gave her.
As for the three meals, Yun Sheng also ate and drank well. Other than showing a sour face when she saw him, everything else couldn't be more normal. In that situation, she didn't have the slightest awareness of being a hostage.
Dugu Xiu didn't understand Yun Sheng's temper. She would make things difficult for anyone, but she wouldn't make things difficult for money and her own body.
These pearls and treasures were all money. She was coerced, so it was only right for her to ask for some money as compensation.
She didn't have a summoning ring now, and the magic power in her body was being controlled by the strange Yearning in Dreams. It was getting weaker and weaker. After a while, she might not even be able to use magic power.
In such a state, Yun Sheng could only rely on the trace of internal energy from the Jade Marrow Skill in her body.
She had to conserve her strength and find the right time to undo the Yearning in Dreams before escaping.
Seeing that Yun Sheng didn't say anything, the palace maids took turns to do it.
With exquisite makeup, the young girl's black hair was combed into a high bun. These palace maids were very skillful. When they saw that Yun Sheng's hair was extraordinarily large, they carefully divided her hair into several strands and braided them into small braids.
Then, they decorated the small braids with roses made of accumulated gems. Paired with the fire luan dress, Yun Sheng's lips were blazing red and she was indescribably beautiful.
"The crown prince consort is really suited for the Empress. She will definitely like it when she sees you." The palace maids finished dressing Yun Sheng and couldn't help but sigh emotionally.
They were all palace maids trained in the Later Qin Imperial Palace.
Later Qin emperors all liked to enrich their harem. Later Qin was also a great country. Every year, as many beautiful women entered the palace, there were as many as the clouds in the sky. However, there really wasn't a single one that could compare to this crown prince consort in front of him.
Even the palace maids were stunned by Yun Sheng's beauty. They sighed with emotion that it was no wonder the Crown Prince liked this future Crown Princess so much.
Yun Sheng shook her head impatiently. She had been born in the countryside since she was a child. When she grew up, she often appeared as a hunter. She had never dressed up so grandly like today.
When Dugu Xiu entered, he just happened to see this scene.
He couldn't help but hold his breath.
Most of the Yun Sheng that Dugu Xiu had seen wore a magician's robe, which made her look natural.
However, today's Yun Sheng revealed a different kind of charm.
Following Yun Sheng's movements, the red dress on her body rippled with ripples. Her narrow waist was so small that it could be held with one hand, and her figure was graceful and graceful.
Her already extremely beautiful face was picturesque, and her pair of black eyes were as resplendent as the stars.
Madam Chi Bi, who was following behind Dugu Xiu, felt even more jealous when she saw this.
She sneaked a peek at Dugu Xiu and saw that his gaze was slightly sluggish. His eyes stopped on Yun Sheng's body, unable to move away for a long time.
This was crazy. The Crown Prince had really fallen in love with this woman.
Perhaps Dugu Xiu himself hadn't realized it, but Madam Chi Bi had already understood when he suggested using heart blood to nurture the Soul Yearning and Dreaming Snail with the sole purpose of restraining Yun Sheng.
The Soul Yearning and Dreaming Snail was an extremely special soul snake. For many years, no one in the Ba-Serpent Clan had been able to successfully nurture it.
After all, the Soul Yearning and Dreaming Snail needed the heart blood of the person who nurtured it to grow.
The heart blood was the blood from the most dangerous part of the human body. The slightest bit of carelessness could cause the heart to explode and die.
However, Dugu Xiu relied on his tyrannical constitution and inhuman willpower to persist in taking blood once a day. After a total of forty-nine days, he finally succeeded in hatching the Soul Yearning and Dreaming Snail.
The moment he gave the snake away, it was equivalent to giving away his own heart.
Madam Chi Bi's heart was bleeding.
She had always thought that Dugu Xiu was a heartless person. However, she didn't know that he wasn't heartless. It was just that he had never found someone to entrust his heart to.
The funny thing was that Yun Sheng didn't care about Dugu Xiu's special favor at all.
However, Yun Sheng, don't think that you can be unbridled and fearless just because Dugu Xiu dotes on you.
When we reach the Later Qin Dynasty, this madam will naturally let you see that the imperial harem of the Later Qin Dynasty isn't a place where just anyone can stay.
Upon seeing Dugu Xiu, Yun Sheng's expression became gloomy.
"You don't have to glare at me like that. You want to look for Donghuang Ling 'er, right? I've already brought her to you." Upon seeing Yun Sheng's expression that seemed as if she wanted to eat him up, Dugu Xiu's heart started beating faster.
Behind him was Donghuang Ling 'er.
"Yun Sheng." Upon seeing Yun Sheng, Ling 'er felt guilty and sad. She hugged Yun Sheng, and her eyes turned red.
It was all her fault. She had dragged Yun Sheng down.
Donghuang Ling 'er's martial skill had already been undone.
She planned to disguise herself as a palace maid and follow Yun Sheng to the Later Qin Dynasty.
Firstly, the two of them could take care of each other. Secondly, this time, Yun Sheng was pretending to be the princess of the imperial capital. Since young, Yun Sheng had always been undisciplined. Thus, Donghuang Ling 'er was afraid that she would expose herself in front of the emperor of the Later Qin Dynasty. Thus, she decided to accompany Yun Sheng.
"I don't need any palace maid. Dugu Xiu, I won't be able to run away anyways. Let go of Ling 'er." Yun Sheng winked at Donghuang Ling' er. This stubborn girl, how can she not understand what I mean?
This time, Yun Sheng came out in a hurry. Thus, she didn't even have the time to tell anyone that she had arrived at the Eastern Capital.
Dugu Xiu was also very cautious. Not only did he leave the Soul Binding Technique on Yun Sheng's body, he even used his qi to temporarily seal Yun Sheng's magic.
The current Yun Sheng, firstly, didn't know magic. Secondly, she didn't have a summoning ring. If she wanted to escape from the heavily guarded army of the Later Qin Dynasty, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
If Donghuang Ling 'er was able to escape and find Gu Feng, she would be able to spread the news that she was being controlled by Dugu Xiu. However, no matter what, Donghuang Ling' er wasn't willing to leave Yun Sheng alone.
"Sheng 'er, I advise you to stop scheming. This crown prince won't let her go. Before you and I get married, she will follow you to the Later Qin Dynasty." Dugu Xiu destroyed Yun Sheng's last hope.
"Don't call me Sheng 'er." Seeing that Dugu Xiu was pretending to be intimate with her, Yun Sheng had goosebumps all over her body. She wanted to give Dugu Xiu a slap. However, when she thought of the effect of the Soul Binding Technique, Yun Sheng could only endure it.
"Don't count on Ye Beiming. This crown prince heard that his current situation isn't much better than yours." Dugu Xiu laughed heartily.
Hearing that, Yun Sheng's heart thumped. Dugu Xiu said that Ye Beiming's current situation isn't good. Didn't he go to attend Senior Martial Brother Cheng's wedding? How could he …
Or could it be that Ye Beiming encountered something in Zhou State?
"Remember, from today onwards, you are this crown prince's fiancée. In your heart, you can only think of this crown prince." Dugu Xiu was extremely domineering. He grabbed Yun Sheng, who was already dressed up, by the waist, and carried her. Then, he strode towards the carriage of the Later Qin Dynasty.
The carriage rumbled. After several months, the wedding procession of the Later Qin Dynasty was once again heading towards the Later Qin Dynasty.
