An hour later, Ye Fan's Auspicious Clouds returned to the sky above the Forbidden City.
On the Auspicious Clouds, besides Ye Fan and Akatsuki, there was also a young man in a light blue robe.
The young man looked thin, but he was in high spirits.
This person was none other than Wu Qing, the descendant of an official saved by Ye Fan from a group of teenagers a few days ago.
At this moment, he was holding Ye Fan's hand tightly as he stared at the bottom of the Auspicious Clouds with a face full of surprise.
Before this, he had thought that riding on clouds was just a story that was randomly conjectured by street storytellers and unofficial historical records. Now that he was standing on clouds and high up in the sky, he felt like he was in a dream!
It seemed that the world was so big that it was all-encompassing and full of wonders!
On the other hand, Ye Fan's cultivation had once again broadened his horizons!
"Wu Qing, are you afraid?" Ye Fan asked Wu Qing with a smile.
"No." Wu Qing turned his head and looked up at Ye Fan on the clouds as he said seriously, "I'm not afraid."
"When you see the Crown Prince later, feel free to tell him whatever you want to say," Ye Fan said to Wu Qing.
"Is the Crown Prince very fierce?" Wu Qing asked Ye Fan in a childish voice.
"That depends on who he is dealing with," Ye Fan said with a smile, "He is ruthless and merciless to corrupt officials. But when it comes to the people, he loves them as his own children and cares for them wholeheartedly."
Wu Qing pursed his lips and nodded.
"Let's go see the Crown Prince." As Ye Fan spoke, he urged the Auspicious Clouds under his feet to slowly descend toward the majestic Crown Prince's Palace.
The hundreds of Imperial Guards guarding around the Crown Prince's Palace were shocked when they saw a large group of Auspicious Clouds slowly descending from the sky!
Since they were born, no one had ever seen a cloud descend from the sky, let alone see a person above the clouds!
Could it be an immortal descending to the mortal world?
The soldiers looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
"Archers, get ready!"
Seeing this situation, the leading general in golden armor didn't dare to be negligent. He immediately waved one hand and roared loudly.
No matter whether the person was an immortal or a demon, he had to be on guard to protect the Crown Prince's safety!
Clatter …
When the soldiers heard this, they immediately regained their senses.
Squeak …
Hundreds of soldiers nocked their bows and aimed the arrows at Ye Fan and the other two who were slowly descending from the sky.
At the same time, hundreds of soldiers with spears and huge shields were joined together and formed a shield formation!
Swish …
Hundreds of spears stretched out from the gaps in the shield formation, each spear emitting a cold light!
The bow was like a full moon, and the spear was like a dense forest. Specks of cold light could not be seen through!
The Crown Prince's Palace's Palace was heavily guarded.
Under the nervous gazes of the soldiers, Ye Fan slowly landed in front of the Crown Prince's Palace.
Clatter …
As soon as the three of them landed, a large number of Imperial Guards came to support them and surrounded Ye Fan and the other two!
"How dare you trespass into the Crown Prince's Palace!" The leading general in golden armor pointed at Ye Fan and shouted angrily.
Ye Fan didn't say anything. He raised his hand and waved it at the general in golden armor.
Swish …
An item flew out from Ye Fan's hand and landed on the general in golden armor.
Smack!
The general in golden armor stretched out his hand and caught the item.
He squinted his eyes and looked at the item in his hand.
When he saw the jade pendant in his hand, he was scared out of his wits and his soul flew to the nine heavens!
This item was the Crown Prince's jade pendant!
Anyone who saw this jade pendant would feel as if the Crown Prince was here!
As long as this person had this jade pendant, even if the Crown Prince ordered him to kill himself, he had to obey the order!
Clatter …
Thinking of this, the general in golden armor knelt down on the ground!
"Long live the Crown Prince!" The general in golden armor held the jade pendant above his head and shouted.
Clatter …
Seeing the jade pendant in the general's hand, the rest of the soldiers' faces changed and knelt on the ground!
"I have something important to discuss with the Crown Prince. You don't have to be nervous. Get up," Ye Fan said calmly. He waved his hand at the general in golden armor who was kneeling on the ground.
Swish …
The jade pendant in the general's hand flew back into Ye Fan's hand.
"Yes," the general in golden armor said as he stood up slowly.
The rest of the soldiers also stood up.
Clatter …
The soldiers retracted their bows, turned their spears around, and pulled back their shields to make a path.
"Mister, please follow me." The general in golden armor extended his hand and invited Ye Fan into the palace.
Ye Fan put the jade pendant away and nodded slightly.
The three people and one fox were led by the general in golden armor through three layers of security and came to a large mahogany door.
"Mister, the Crown Prince is inside. According to the rules, I cannot enter without permission. Please forgive me." The general in golden armor lowered his head and said respectfully to Ye Fan.
"I know. You may go." Ye Fan said to the general in golden armor.
"Yes." The general in golden armor bowed to Ye Fan and left respectfully.
In the Crown Prince's palace, the Crown Prince, who was dressed in a golden dragon robe, was reading the memorials that had just been presented by the ministers in the court.
After the court, he didn't even have time to change his clothes before he started reading the urgent reports that had been presented to him.
One moment, he was frowning with a serious expression. The next moment, his eyebrows relaxed and he smiled and nodded. From time to time, he would pick up the imperial brush and write furiously on the memorials.
"Your Highness, he is here." An old eunuch holding a horsetail whisk came to the Crown Prince's side and said softly.
"He is here? Who is here? "The Crown Prince asked as he continued reading the memorials.
"Ye Fan." The old eunuch said two words.
"Ye Fan?" The Crown Prince was shocked when he heard this name. The brush in his hand immediately stopped.
"Yes," the old eunuch replied.
"Where is he?" The Crown Prince asked anxiously with joy.
"He is outside the door." The old eunuch said to the Crown Prince.
"What? Outside the door? "The Crown Prince put down the imperial brush excitedly and said," Invite him in! Invite him in! "
"Your Highness, there is no need to invite me in. I came uninvited."
Ye Fan pushed open the red door and walked into the inner hall with a smile.
Akatsuki, who was carrying Baihu, and Wu Qing, who was dressed in green, followed closely behind Ye Fan.
"Mr. Ye!" The Crown Prince immediately stood up from his throne when he saw Ye Fan. He quickly walked down the stairs to welcome Ye Fan.
It was obvious that the Crown Prince was very happy.
"Greetings, Your Highness," Ye Fan said as he walked up to the Crown Prince. He lowered his head and cupped his hands in greeting.
"Hahaha …" The Crown Prince laughed as he helped Ye Fan up. He said, "I heard that Mr. Eldritch acted according to his own likes and dislikes in the past. He stepped on those who were strong and respected those who were weak. Why are you suddenly bowing to me today?"
"Your Highness is a descendant of the Zi Wei. You are a benevolent ruler. How can you be judged by common sense?" Ye Fan said to the Crown Prince with a smile.
"Hahaha …" The Crown Prince laughed. "I am a benevolent ruler. You are the ruler of the Demon Realm. Since we are both rulers, there is no need to be so polite."
After the Demon Slaying Conference, everyone knew that Ye Fan was the ruler of the Demon Realm. It was no longer a secret.
Ye Fan was stunned at first, then he smiled.
"These two are …?" The Crown Prince asked as he looked at Akatsuki and Wu Qing.
"This is my friend," Ye Fan said as he faced the Crown Prince. He smiled and said, "I'm sure Your Highness has already met her during the Demon Slaying Conference."
When the Crown Prince heard this, his expression changed slightly.
Other than the experts he had brought with him, only the old eunuch and Lu Yuanshan knew about the Demon Slaying Conference. How did Ye Fan know?
"Your Highness, in order to save me, you traveled thousands of miles to the execution ground. Your Highness may be able to hide this from others, but you can't hide it from me," Ye Fan said to the Crown Prince with a smile.
"You don't need to mention this again." The Crown Prince waved his hand and smiled. "As the Crown Prince of a country, you can't even save a person. If this gets out, people will laugh at you. I won't talk about it, I won't talk about it. "
"Akatsuki greets Your Highness." Akatsuki lowered her head and cupped her hands in greeting.
"Akatsuki?" When the Crown Prince heard this, he was shocked. "You … you're the red-clothed woman who didn't lose out to men at the execution ground?"
On the execution ground, he had heard Ye Fan call this woman 'Hong Ji'.
"That's me," Akatsuki raised her head and said.
Although she was wearing a crystal mask, her clear, bright, and beautiful eyes weren't hidden in the slightest.
When the Crown Prince saw this, his heart trembled.
During the Demon Slaying Conference, he had only seen Akatsuki from afar. In addition, the situation at the time was complicated, so he didn't see Akatsuki clearly.
Now that he saw Akatsuki's beautiful eyes, the Crown Prince couldn't help but feel a rush of excitement.
"I wonder if Miss Hong Ji could take off your mask and let this Crown Prince see your elegance?" the Crown Prince asked.
The Crown Prince's question stunned Akatsuki.
She was not the only one. Even Ye Fan was frowning.
"This …" Akatsuki looked at Ye Fan, not knowing what to do.
"Of course, if it's not convenient for Miss Yue, then forget it. Just pretend this Crown Prince didn't say anything." The Crown Prince knew that his words were a bit abrupt, so he explained with a smile.
The stone in Ye Fan's heart fell to the ground.
If the Crown Prince insisted on seeing Akatsuki's appearance, he really didn't know how to respond.
However, when Ye Fan thought this matter was over, Akatsuki's words stunned him.
"Since Your Highness wants to see this woman's appearance, then this woman can only embarrass herself." As Akatsuki spoke, she slowly reached out her slender hand and took off the crystal mask on her face.
When the crystal mask was taken off, the Crown Prince's expression froze.
His mouth was half open as he stood rooted to the ground, dumbfounded.
Akatsuki's beautiful face deeply shocked him.
As the Crown Prince of a country, he had seen all kinds of beauties and seen all kinds of stunning beauties. However, compared to the Red Moon Concubine in front of him, those so-called national toppling beauties were simply mediocre!
Yue Hong Ji's brows were like crescent moons, her eyes were like stars, her skin was smooth, and her teeth were like jade. Her beautiful eyes were clear and flawless, and her red lips were tender and tender. Her long black hair was soft and silky, and her gorgeous white robe showed off her curvaceous figure!
She was like Chang 'e leaving the jade palace, a mysterious woman from the ninth heaven descending to the mortal world!
The Crown Prince's adam's apple moved.
Seeing the Crown Prince look at her in a daze, Akatsuki lowered her head.
Ye Fan standing on the side had no expression as he stared at Akatsuki.
He did not understand why Akatsuki would agree to show her appearance to the Crown Prince.
It had to be known that the Crown Prince had already given her a way out!
He did not know why, but Ye Fan felt a bit uncomfortable in his heart.
Logically speaking, it was Akatsuki's freedom to show her true appearance to whoever she wanted. He had no right to interfere.
But the moment Akatsuki took off her mask, Ye Fan felt a trace of pain in his heart.
He did not know if it was because they looked the same, but Ye Fan felt that the Crown Prince was staring at his wife.
"Cough … …"
Seeing the Crown Prince being attracted to Akatsuki's face, the old eunuch standing at the top of the steps gave a light cough.
This cough made the Crown Prince come back to his senses.
"I did not think that there would be such a beautiful woman in this world." The Crown Prince's gaze did not leave Akatsuki as he spoke with emotion.
Akatsuki's face turned red. She put the crystal mask back on and looked at Ye Fan.
Ye Fan turned his head and expressionlessly avoided her gaze.
"Your Highness, I came this time because I have an important matter to report. Time is of the essence, so we cannot stay here for too long. Otherwise, Matsumoto Takeyoshi will suspect us."
Ye Fan's mood was very bad right now. He did not want to stay here for too long, so he wanted to finish this matter as soon as possible and leave.
