Could he really want me to get struck by lightning again to prove his innocence?
I couldn’t help but withdraw my gaze, looking at Qi Chenxuan and said: “Don’t worry, I’ll make you believe everything I say! But since you say the tower was specially built by the former emperor for someone he liked, ordinary people probably can’t enter, right?”
Qi Chenxuan replied expressionlessly: “Of course! It’s a royal forbidden zone, guarded by imperial troops. Only royal family members can enter. Anyone else who trespasses will be beaten to death with clubs!”
I couldn’t help but swallow hard: “Then, as a side consort of the crown prince, I should be considered part of the royal family, right?”
That guy gave me a sideways glance and coldly asked back: “What do you think?”
Hearing my disgruntled mumbling, he added: “Only princes, princesses, and wives of higher ranks are considered true royal family members. Others who want to enter the tower must have a personal decree from the emperor!”
I rolled my eyes at him: “Then what you said is basically useless! I can’t enter anyway, so what’s the point of knowing?”
That guy coolly responded: “Since this prince is telling you, naturally I have a way to let you in!”
“What way?” I couldn’t help but ask eagerly.
Such a beautiful place – even if I can’t travel back to modern times, climbing to the top to feel the breeze and enjoy the scenery would be nice…
That guy narrowed his eyes and looked at me: “Do you really want to go?”
I couldn’t help rolling my eyes and answered bluntly: “Of course! What kind of stupid question is that? Why would I be talking to him so much if I didn’t want to go?”
Haven’t I done enough?
Qi Chenxuan’s mouth curved slightly: “As I know, the emperor will climb the tower to overlook the view with the princes and the Jing Yue national master in three days. I think if I ask my father to bring you along, he shouldn’t refuse!”
“Really?”
I couldn’t help but exclaim joyfully, urging: “Then go quickly!”
Qi Chenxuan leisurely raised an eyebrow: “But why should I do this? What’s in it for me?”
Damn, I knew this guy wouldn’t be so kind…
