Chapter 229 Everyone Is Busy
"Your Highness, aren't you going to take a bath?"
"What's the point of following me?"
Zhao Feng asked the Fourth Prince beside him helplessly.
"Oh, Mr. Zhao, do you think I'm troublesome?"
"I don't dare."
Zhao Feng replied indifferently.
"It's just that it's a rare opportunity to come to Yuqing Pool. Why don't you seize it?"
Zhao Feng looked at the Fourth Prince and asked seriously.
"I don't like taking a bath."
"Let those who like it go. I still like to walk around like now."
"Although it's comfortable to soak in the hot spring, the scene in front of me is inevitably too monotonous."
"I still want to see more different scenery in this world in my lifetime."
The Fourth Prince looked up at the night sky in the distance and answered meaningfully.
"It seems that His Highness the Fourth Prince can get along well with His Highness the Eighth Prince."
Zhao Feng laughed and walked forward on his own.
The Fourth Prince followed closely behind.
"Where is the steward Zhao?"
"I see you have been walking non-stop from just now until now, don't you want to sit down and rest for a while?"
The fourth prince did not even leave a close servant behind him, he was alone.
"It is my duty. If you let the princes get into danger tonight, I will be blamed."
"If the fourth prince wants to rest, please do so. I will not accompany you."
The fourth prince laughed immediately: "It's just walking, how tired can it be?"
"Besides, the steward Zhao doesn't feel tired. I am so young and I am tired. Isn't it ridiculous?"
The fourth prince meant that if you, Zhao Feng, don't stop, I will never rest.
He kept talking to Zhao Feng, regardless of whether he answered or not, just kept talking and causing some noise.
He knew that he had no way to stop Zhao Feng's actions, but he could issue a warning to let people nearby know that Zhao Feng was coming.
Zhao Feng could see what the fourth prince was doing.
But Zhao Feng was neither impatient nor impatient, and did not take his actions seriously at all.
Zhao Feng also noticed that there were several of the Fourth Prince's attendants hiding nearby, occasionally coughing or sneezing. In short, from just now, Zhao Feng's vicinity was as lively as it could be.
In the quiet Yuqing Pool, their movements were particularly abrupt, making Zhao Feng's movement trajectory extremely conspicuous.
As long as you are not deaf or blind, you will probably know that Zhao Feng is coming from a long distance.
Zhao Feng didn't care about this little trick at all, but he felt a little sorry that the Fourth Prince chose the last step this time.
"It seems that he didn't consider my suggestion at all."
Zhao Feng couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
He looked up at the moonlight and knew that it was time and he should work hard.
"There is enough time to adapt."
Zhao Feng said to himself, and then quietly quickened his pace.
The fourth prince also immediately noticed that Zhao Feng's speed had increased. He frowned slightly and kept talking:
"Has Zhao Feng remembered something urgent?"
"If you have any difficulties, please tell me."
"Maybe I can help."
Zhao Feng laughed and said immediately:
"Your Highness can certainly help, and follow me."
As soon as Zhao Feng finished speaking, he walked directly into a hot spring that he had not taken them to visit before.
The fourth prince stopped and raised his arm to signal the attendants nearby.
"Go around, go around quickly!"
"Don't lose the trace of Zhao!"
The fourth prince said anxiously.
On the surface, the range of activities of the princes and princesses does not include these unintroduced hot springs.
As long as they enter, Zhao Feng will immediately have a reason to send them away.
But Zhao Feng has no such restrictions.
Originally, the fourth prince followed all the way and thought that Zhao Feng's patrol tonight was of this intensity, but he didn't expect it to suddenly increase the intensity.
The fourth prince noticed that Zhao Feng had looked at the sky before, so he quickly looked up at the sky. According to the position of the moon, it should have been only half an hour since they entered the Jade Pool.
"You only gave us half an hour to adapt?"
The fourth prince frowned slightly, feeling a little uneasy.
With his Qinggong, he would definitely not be able to catch up with Zhao Feng.
Especially Zhao Feng could get rid of him by passing through the restricted area.
"Your Highness, we can't find the figure of Zhao Zongguan around."
"And..."
The eunuch who came to report hesitated.
"And what!"
"And, two people are missing."
After being urged by the fourth prince, the eunuch continued.
"Did you follow Zhao Zongguan into it?"
The fourth prince asked.
"It should be."
After receiving the eunuch's uncertain reply, the fourth prince couldn't help but sigh.
"Let everyone else gather together, find the trace of Zhao Zongguan, and tell them not to enter the forbidden area."
The fourth prince brought six attendants today, but he didn't expect to lose two of them at once.
If he can't find Zhao Feng later, he has to quickly find the eldest prince and the sixth princess to gather together, so that the two of them will not be attacked by Zhao Feng without knowing and then eliminated.
"You two go and notify them first, tell them that I lost Zhao Zongguan here."
After thinking about it, the fourth prince still found a safe way.
...
Not long after.
The eldest prince received the news and his face was solemn.
"I know, you go back."
The eldest prince casually sent away the eunuch sent by the fourth prince to report the news, and turned back to look at his attendants.
The eldest prince also brought six attendants, and the configuration was the same as that of the fourth prince, two palace maids and four eunuchs.
At this time, the four eunuchs were all wet, obviously they had already been in the water.
The four eunuchs were constantly dripping with water, but they still stood respectfully, obviously very obedient.
"Let's go, don't go here for now."
The eldest prince thought about it and took them away from the place they wanted to enter.
This is a hot spring pool that Zhao Feng had not introduced before.
The eldest prince had previously sent people to investigate the two hot spring pools, but the treasure chests below were all opened and the things inside disappeared.
The three brothers and sisters were too cautious and wasted a lot of time.
Obviously someone was more action-oriented than them and had already started to search for treasure chests in Yuqing Pool.
The eldest prince also completely confirmed what the game in Yuqing Pool tonight was like after hearing the eunuchs report that there was an empty treasure chest under the pool.
But now it seems that they are a little behind.
The eldest prince's body is still dry, and it is not his turn to go into the water.
The four eunuchs around him have some cultivation, so diving to get things is not a problem.
But he had to speed up his actions next, otherwise he would only see these empty treasure chests tonight.
The eldest prince had wanted to take the risk and try the hot spring that Zhao Feng did not allow them to enter, but he changed his mind after knowing that the fourth prince had lost Zhao Feng.
"The four of you spread out and search the remaining hot springs that are allowed to enter."
"Whether you find anything or not, come there to find me in the end."
The eldest prince pointed to the depths of Yuqing Pool. From where they were, they could vaguely see the tops of two rockery mountains standing there, looming in the water vapor.
On the other side.
The Sixth Princess was climbing out of the hot spring.
The eunuch who came to report the news lowered his head and did not dare to look up.
Even though the Sixth Princess was wearing clothes at this time, because her whole body was soaked, all the clothes on her body were tightly attached to her delicate body, highlighting her graceful figure.
Her messy hair was tightly attached to her white jade-like cheeks, which made people feel pity.
The Sixth Princess may not be so smart, but she has perfectly inherited the beauty of Concubine Zhang. Although she is not yet an adult, she has a stunning appearance.
I have to admit that these royal descendants are really impeccable in appearance.
"Got it, go back and report it."
"Remember to tell my fourth brother that there is a treasure chest under the pool, and there are good things in the chest."
The Sixth Princess showed what she had in her hand.
It was a fist-sized night-shining pearl, which was extremely rare.
The Sixth Princess raised the night-shining pearl and compared it with the moon in the night sky, with a smile on her lips.
"If I give it to my mother, she will be very happy."
The eunuch who came to report the news was stunned when he saw this scene, but immediately lowered his head and replied:
"Yes, Your Highness!"
The eunuch lowered his head, turned around and walked out of here, but until he walked out for a long time, he still saw the charming posture of the Sixth Princess holding the pearl under the moon.
The eunuch realized that something was wrong and shook his head to drive the picture out of his mind, and he dared not think about anything else.
…
Puff——
A diving cat turned out from the hot spring and spit out a large mouthful of water.
“Damn, the treasure chest here has also been opened.”
Li Xuan was in a luxurious hot spring, and shook his head and said he was unlucky.
Those princes and princesses were not vegetarians either, and they actually took action before Li Xuan cleaned it out.
Li Xuan’s heart was bleeding when he saw the wooden treasure chest opened at the bottom of the pool.
It took him nearly an hour to sweep all the nearby hot springs.
Under the water, a wet tail stretched out, and it was hung with all kinds of things.
Most of them were simple jewelry, and only a few were strange things, just like the human skin mask before, and the value could not be seen at a glance.
But these things were taken out of the bronze treasure chest, and Li Xuan believed that they had higher value than those gorgeous looking jewels.
Li Xuan also discovered that wooden treasure chests were the most efficient to open, so he could just dive down and open them directly.
The wooden treasure chests were full of valuable jewels, which could be considered a good reward.
It just so happened that Princess Ankang had nothing in her hands except a few pieces of jewels passed down to her by Concubine Xiao.
Moreover, Princess Ankang particularly cherished those relics of Concubine Xiao, and never wore them on her body. She only took them out and touched them secretly when she remembered them occasionally.
Therefore, it was not completely useless for Li Xuan to find so many jewels, at least they could be used to dress up Princess Ankang.
Although Princess Ankang was a princess of the royal family, she did not have a single decent piece of jewel on her body, and her usual dress was as plain as that of an ordinary palace maid.
If it were not for Yu'er serving her, I'm afraid someone would have dragged her to work.
"Let's go back first, the tail is almost full."
Seeing that there was no room on the tail, Li Xuan couldn't help but sigh.
His body is too small now, and there is not enough space to hang things on his body.
I don’t know if there is such a legendary space storage magic weapon in this world.
If there is such a treasure, it will be much more convenient for Li Xuan to go out and borrow things.
Li Xuan was dreaming and rushed to the hot spring where Princess Ankang and the others were, but when he arrived here, he found that there was an uninvited guest.
"Ankang, are you enjoying the bath?"
The Sixth Princess, who was wet all over, came here and raised her eyebrows when she saw Princess Ankang still bathing peacefully.
The palace maid who was watching at the door said that Princess Ankang had been bathing in it from the beginning to now and had never left.
But the Sixth Princess immediately felt strange.
Generally speaking, half an hour of bathing is considered too much, why did Princess Ankang bathe until now?
And she was in poor health, and she should have fainted after soaking for so long.
So the Sixth Princess walked in directly to see what tricks Princess Ankang was playing.
Princess Ankang turned around and saw the Sixth Princess coming in, all wet from head to toe. She was stunned for a moment and asked subconsciously:
"Sixth Princess, why don't you take off your clothes when you take a bath?"
