"When did this happen?"
The Crown Prince frowned and asked Akatsuki.
"Ye Fan saw it with his own eyes when he passed by Liangguang on a cloud yesterday. He even saved a little girl there."
Akatsuki explained the entire incident to the Crown Prince.
After the Crown Prince heard it, his brows furrowed.
He only knew that there was a locust plague in Henan, a plague in the southwest, and a rain disaster in the south. He knew nothing about the drought in Liangguang!
The Governor of Liangguang, Chen Aimin, did not mention a single word about the drought in his report!
"Where is the child now?"
The Crown Prince asked Akatsuki.
"I've brought the child here."
Akatsuki waved her sleeves as she spoke.
Buzz …
After a flash of red light, a little girl in plain clothes appeared out of thin air.
As they had to walk on the cloud when they came, and the little girl's body was mortal, she could not withstand the wind and cold air at high altitudes. Hence, Akatsuki used invisible spiritual energy to wrap her up and used the Japanese ninjutsu to hide her figure. This was to prevent the little girl from being frightened by the high altitude.
After appearing, the little girl was immediately stunned by the majestic Crown Prince Palace in front of her.
She held Akatsuki's hand tightly and looked timidly at the noble man in the dragon robe in front of her.
"Zixuan, this is the Crown Prince of this dynasty. Quickly greet the Crown Prince."
Akatsuki squatted down and said to the little girl.
"Greetings to the Crown Prince!"
Upon hearing that the person in front of her was the Crown Prince, the little girl immediately knelt down and touched the ground with her head. She did not even dare to breathe loudly.
For her, the county magistrate was already high and mighty, let alone the Crown Prince!
Now she understood that this was the Imperial Palace, the Forbidden City!
"Stand up and speak."
The Crown Prince helped the little girl up and said kindly.
The little girl stood up, her face full of nervousness.
"What is your name?" The Crown Prince asked the little girl.
"I … I'm Zhou Zixuan …" The little girl replied timidly.
"Where do you live? Where are your parents?" The crown prince bent down and asked the little girl.
"My family lives in Guangxi's Zhoujiabao. My father was seriously ill and passed away three years ago. My mother, she … she gave me all her food … and then …"
At the mention of her mother, the little girl started sobbing.
The crown prince's eyes reddened. He squatted down and reached out to hold the little girl's hands.
"Zi Xuan, don't cry. This Crown Prince will help you." The Crown Prince wiped the little girl's tears and said.
The little girl nodded while crying.
"Fulin, immediately issue a decree to dismiss Governor Chen Aimin and hand him over to the Supreme Court to investigate this matter. In addition, order the Ministry of Revenue to transfer funds from the warehouse and send them urgently to the two provinces to provide relief to the victims. "
The Crown Prince stood up and turned to the old eunuch.
"Yes, Your Highness."
The old eunuch said respectfully.
"Also, from today onwards, I will take Zi Xuan as my adopted daughter. She will be named Princess Anle. You will write a decree and announce it to the world."
The Crown Prince said to the old eunuch.
"This old servant will do it right away."
The old eunuch said as he turned around and left.
The Crown Prince's words surprised and delighted Akatsuki.
This Crown Prince was indeed worthy of being the descendant of the Emperor Star. He really loved the people like his own children. He even took the refugee's daughter as his adopted daughter and gave her the title of Princess!
"I thank Your Highness on behalf of Ye Fan." Akatsuki lowered her head and said to the Crown Prince with cupped hands.
"This has nothing to do with Ye Fan." The Crown Prince reached out and picked up the little girl who was crying. He wiped her tears and said, "As the ruler of a country, I don't even know the suffering of the people. I am so stupid. I took Zi Xuan as my adopted daughter and kept her by my side. First, I feel sorry for this child and want her to have a good home. Second, I want to remind myself not to be an incapable ruler who knows nothing about the suffering of the people."
Akatsuki nodded slowly. Her eyes were full of praise.
This Crown Prince understood the feelings of the people and loved them like his own children. He would definitely be a great ruler in the future!
"What about Ye Fan? How is he now? "
The Crown Prince asked Akatsuki.
"He is very good now. He is just too busy," Akatsuki replied.
"If you see him, say hello to him for me," the Crown Prince said to Akatsuki.
"I will definitely pass on Your Highness's words," Akatsuki said.
The Crown Prince nodded.
"The matter is done. I should go." Akatsuki said to the Crown Prince. She looked at the little girl. "Zi Xuan, you stay in the Forbidden City. Remember to listen to your adoptive father. If there is a chance in the future, Sister Hong Ji and your Brother Bufan will come here to see you."
The little girl in the Crown Prince's arms looked at Akatsuki reluctantly. She pursed her lips and nodded.
"You are leaving now?" The Crown Prince frowned and asked Akatsuki.
"It is getting late. Ye Fan is still waiting for me. I should go back." Akatsuki cupped her hands and said to the Crown Prince. "Your Highness, take care of yourself. I will take my leave."
Akatsuki said. She turned around and prepared to use her body movement to leave this place.
"Miss Yue, please wait."
The Crown Prince's voice came from behind Akatsuki.
"Your Highness, is there anything else?"
Akatsuki turned around and asked the Crown Prince.
"After parting today, I don't know when I will see Miss Yue again," the Crown Prince said to Akatsuki. "I have prepared a gift for Miss Yue. I planned to give it to you in the future. Since you and I have met today, I will give it to you."
The Crown Prince said. He put the little girl down and returned to the table. He took out a scroll from a celadon cylinder.
The scroll was wrapped in golden silk and looked extremely exquisite.
"This is a small token of my appreciation. Miss Yue, please accept it."
The Crown Prince walked slowly to Akatsuki and handed the scroll to Akatsuki with both hands.
Throughout the entire process, the Crown Prince's gaze never left Akatsuki's eyes.
"This is …"
Akatsuki frowned and asked.
If it was something too valuable, she would not accept it.
"There is a painting inside. I will give it to you." The Crown Prince said to Akatsuki.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Akatsuki took the scroll with both hands and said respectfully.
"I hope we will have a chance to meet again in the future."
The Crown Prince said gently.
Akatsuki did not say anything.
She nodded respectfully to the Crown Prince, then turned around and used her body movement technique.
Whoosh …
A dazzling red star appeared out of thin air!
The star shot out of the hall and into the Nine Heavens!
The Crown Prince quickly walked out of the hall and looked up!
The blood-red starlight instantly cut through the night sky and disappeared into the boundless horizon.
"The falling flower wishes to follow the flowing water, but the flowing water has no heart to love the falling flower. Sigh …"
The Crown Prince sighed as he watched the dazzling star disappear into the distance …
An hour later, Akatsuki returned to the Lingyun Cave.
"Ye Fan, Ye Fan!"
Akatsuki called out Ye Fan's name when she returned to the cave.
The Lingyun Cave was empty.
Clearly, Ye Fan had not returned.
Akatsuki placed the Phoenix Wing Saber on the stone table, then took off her red veil. She rolled up her sleeves and walked into the kitchen.
She wanted to prepare a sumptuous banquet for Ye Fan.
Buzz …
After half an incense's time, Ye Fan's figure appeared behind Akatsuki!
At this time, Akatsuki was focused on frying in front of the stove. She did not notice that Ye Fan was already standing behind her.
Ye Fan had already obtained the power of the Five Great Magic Pools, so his cultivation had reached a new level.
Even though Akatsuki's cultivation was not the same as before, she did not notice Ye Fan's appearance!
"You're really virtuous."
Ye Fan, who was standing behind Akatsuki, said as he stretched out his hand and hugged Akatsuki's waist from behind.
"Ah …"
Akatsuki let out a scream and instinctively turned around!
At this time, she was wearing an apron and holding a metal ladle. She looked at Ye Fan in shock!
"Ye Fan? You … when did you come back … "
Phew …
Before Akatsuki could finish speaking, Ye Fan kissed Akatsuki's red lips!
"Mmm …"
Akatsuki was caught off guard and let out a moan!
Ye Fan was actually kissing her!
Clang …
The metal ladle in Akatsuki's hand fell to the ground.
She was at a loss and her beautiful eyes were wide open. She did not know where to put her hands!
Thump … thump …
Akatsuki could only feel her heart pounding, as if it would jump out of her chest at any time!
"Did you miss me, hmm?"
Ye Fan moved away from Akatsuki's red lips and asked with narrowed eyes.
When she saw Ye Fan in front of her, the blushing Akatsuki suddenly sucked in a breath of cold air!
At this time, Ye Fan's face was full of evil. His body was surrounded by a murderous aura, and his eyes were full of lust!
In his eyes, a golden light was flickering!
"You … you … what happened to you?"
Akatsuki asked Ye Fan in shock.
"Why, is there something wrong?"
Ye Fan asked with a smile and hugged Akatsuki even tighter.
"How did you … become like this?"
Akatsuki asked anxiously.
At this time, Ye Fan was a completely different person from before!
"You don't like it? Hmm? "
Ye Fan asked and kissed Akatsuki again!
Akatsuki pushed Ye Fan away with both hands!
There was something wrong with Ye Fan!
Bang!
Akatsuki's strength was not what it used to be. After being pushed by her, Ye Fan hit the stone wall!
"Hehehe … you're really strong …"
Ye Fan, who was leaning against the stone wall, laughed strangely.
As he laughed, he walked towards Akatsuki again.
Seeing Ye Fan's evil aura and his lustful eyes, Akatsuki picked up the ladle and scooped a big ladle of ice water from the basin. She splashed it on Ye Fan!
Splash …
Akatsuki was very accurate and the entire ladle of ice water splashed on Ye Fan's handsome face!
After being stimulated by the cold water, Ye Fan, who was indulging in the evil aura, suddenly woke up!
He shook his head and looked at Yuehong Ji with a dumbfounded expression!
At this time, his eyes were clear and his evil aura was gone. He was back to normal!
"Hong Ji?"
Ye Fan wiped his face and asked with a frown.
He knew nothing about what had just happened!
Seeing that Ye Fan had recovered, Akatsuki heaved a sigh of relief.
Ye Fan had finally recovered.
Clang!
The ladle in her hand fell to the ground again!
"What … what just happened?"
