When the Sorcerer Queen said this, her gaze was fixed on Zhou Jin’s face.
No matter how calm a child was, they were still a child. How could they not show a trace of abnormality? However, it was disappointing. Zhou Jin’s expression never changed from the beginning to the end.
“Why did you stop just now? Have you seen these flowers somewhere before?” The Sorcerer Queen asked.
“I’ve never seen it before. It’s beautiful,” Zhou Jin said.
The Sorcerer Queen smiled faintly at him. “Are you sure you haven’t seen her somewhere before?”
Zhou Jin raised his head and fearlessly met the Sorcerer Queen’s scrutinizing gaze. He did not say anything and just looked straight at her.
The corners of the Sorcerer Queen’s lips curled up. She bent down slightly and pinched his chin with her cold fingertips. “A lying child is not cute.”
Zhou Jin still did not say anything. The way he looked at her became even more magnanimous and fearless.
The Sorcerer Queen sneered, let go of his chin, and held his hand instead.
Dawa’s back was drenched. Was his brain damaged just now? That was why he felt that this “sister” was amiable, right? She was clearly an extremely dangerous beautiful snake that could bite people to death at any time—
“Sorcerer Queen.” Outside the bedchamber, an apostle bowed respectfully to the Sorcerer Queen. When he saw the child held by the Sorcerer Queen, his eyes flickered. “This is…”
The Sorcerer Queen said indifferently, “He’s the Sorcerer King’s guest. Has the Sorcerer King woken up?
The apostle looked at Zhou Jin suspiciously and said, “He’s awake and lying down again.”
The Sorcerer Queen raised her chin and held Zhou Jin’s hand as they entered the bedchamber.
The doors and windows of the bedchamber were tightly shut, and the light was dim. An oil lamp that was almost exhausted was left on the candlestick, and the dim yellow light shone on the hollow curtain that fell to the ground. The Sorcerer Queen stopped in front of the curtain.
A rustling sound came from behind the curtain, as if someone was turning over, and right on the heels of that, there was a low cough.
Zhou Jin stared fixedly at the hollow curtain in front of him. He clenched his small hand that was not held by the Sorcerer Queen tightly.
The Sorcerer Queen’s gaze passed through the curtain and she smiled lightly.
“Sorcerer King, Xu’er and I have come to see you. I brought you a little guest. He came all the way from the Jade Nation. He’s nine years old this year and is a great sorcerer at the peak of the Heaven Realm. Do you want to see him?” The coughing behind the curtain stopped.
The Sorcerer Queen smiled. “Xu’er, let’s go out first and let the Sorcerer King see this little guest.”
Dawa looked at Zhou Jin worriedly.
Zhou Jin nodded.
Dawa cleared his throat and bowed to the curtain. “Brother-in-law, I’ll take my leave first.”
Upon hearing this, the Sorcerer Queen’s body stiffened, but it was only for a moment before she left with her usual expression.
Dawa also left.
The two of them had already stepped out of the threshold. The Sorcerer Queen suddenly stopped in her tracks and did not turn around. She said, “You can leave too.”
“Yes.” A maidservant walked out from behind the curtain and left the bedchamber without looking sideways.
In the huge hall, only Zhou Jin and the Sorcerer King behind the curtain were left. The already quiet place became even more silent. Dawa did not go far. He stopped in the courtyard outside the bedchamber. He had come out, but he could not help but look inside.
“What are you looking at?” the Sorcerer Queen asked.
Dawa’s eyes flashed and he said, “I’m looking for the Sorcerer King’s reaction. Do you think this child is his and that woman’s flesh and blood? We’ve already left, so how do we know if the two of them have acknowledged each other?”
“Heh.” The Sorcerer Queen casually plucked a small purple flower raised in a potted plant. “How do I know? Need I know? That child’s eyebrows are exactly the same as that woman’s. It would be strange if he’s not her biological son!”
“Ah…” Dawa was speechless. So Zhou Jin actually looked very similar to his biological mother? Then didn’t the Sorcerer Queen already recognize Zhou Jin the moment she saw him? But why did she want Zhou Jin to acknowledge the Sorcerer King?
Wasn’t this unnecessary?
As if guessing her brother’s doubts, the Sorcerer Queen rubbed the delicate flower in her hand bit by bit and said, “I want him to see his son and let him know that I’ve captured his and that woman’s bastard. I want him to watch him die in my hands! I want to destroy all the things he cares about the most!” Dawa shivered. What a terrifying woman!
The Sorcerer King did not ask Zhou Jin to walk up to him. He only looked at the child with an elegant temperament through the hollow curtain. “You… you shouldn’t have come…” He did not want Zhou Jin to see him like this, but the wooden curtain in front of him fell with a bang.
In the Harem.
Yu Wan was settled in a quiet small courtyard. Because she was pregnant with “Wen Xu’”s child, all the maidservants treated her very politely.
Yu Wan put down the snacks in her hand and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief. “I want to rest for a while. All of you can leave.”
The two maidservants looked at each other. One of them walked forward and said, “Miss, just rest. We won’t disturb you.”
“I can’t sleep if you guys stand here,” Yu Wan said firmly.
After all, she was not a true orphan girl, but a member of the royal family of Nanzhao, the Princely Heir Consort of the Great Zhou. She had an innate nobility in her bones. The two maidservants originally wanted to refuse, but for some reason, when they met those calm and composed eyes, they could not say a word.
“Why are you still standing there?” Yu Wan said indifferently.
The two of them felt their hearts pound under that faint gaze. It was clearly not that cold, but it was soul-stirring. In the end, the two of them left. They were guarding the door when a breeze blew past. The two of them blinked and looked at each other in the next second. “Did something go over just now?”
“No… I didn’t see…
“Miss…”
“I told you not to disturb me!” Yu Wan shouted and the two of them fell silent. Yu Wan lowered the curtain and looked at Yan Jiuchao, who had entered in a flash. She said softly, “What happened? Two maidservants almost discovered you?”
“It’s almost the night of the full moon,” Yan Jiuchao said.
During this period of time, they had been traveling so quickly that they had forgotten the days. They did not even know that the night of the full moon was coming.
“If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have let you come to the palace,” Yu Wan said self-reproachfully.
“It’s still early. I’m fine,” Yan Jiuchao said indifferently.
It was indeed not a big deal. There were many experts in the Sorcerer Clan’s palace. If anything really went wrong, they would have been found long ago.
Yu Wan understood that he did not say this on purpose to not let her worry. He had never done anything that he was not confident of. If he said that he was fine, then he was really fine. She pulled his hand and sat down beside him. “Do you think the Sorcerer King will acknowledge Zhou Jin? I mean, can he recognize Zhou Jin as his own child?”
Yan Jiuchao held the chubby hand in his palm. “Blood is thicker than water. He’s also the Sorcerer King, so it’s not impossible for him to recognize his own son. As for whether he acknowledges him… It doesn’t matter anymore. The Sorcerer Queen has long confirmed Zhou Jin’s identity.”
“How do you know?” Yu Wan asked.
“The look in her eyes,” Yan Jiuchao said.
The way the Sorcerer Queen looked at Zhou Jin was extremely well-hidden, so much so that Dawa, who was the closest to her, did not even notice. However, she could not lie to Yan Jiuchao.
“How can she tell?” Yu Wan asked in confusion.
“I’m not sure about that,” Yan Jiuchao said.
Yu Wan touched her chin. “Since she has already seen through Zhou Jin’s identity, why did she bring him over for the Sorcerer King to confirm?”
Yan Jiuchao snorted coldly. “She doesn’t want the Sorcerer King to confirm it. She wants the Sorcerer King to acknowledge Zhou Jin. She wants the Sorcerer King to see her destroy Zhou Jin with his own eyes.”
“This woman!” Yu Wan gasped. She had long guessed that the Sorcerer Queen was not a good person, but she did not expect her to be so ruthless. What was more unbearable than letting the Sorcerer King see his son destroyed with his own eyes? No matter how much pain the Sorcerer King and the witch gave her back then, she returned it ten times or a hundred times!
Compared to her, Nangong Yan and Saintess Lan Ji were all weak. This was really a knife to the heart, making people wish they were dead and regret their actions!
Yu Wan held Yan Jiuchao’s arm and sighed. “To be honest, I don’t sympathize with the Sorcerer King. I just pity Little Zhou Jin. He has to bear such a scheme at such a young age. Fortunately, he was prepared!”
In the palace, Zhou Jin slowly walked out of the bedchamber.
The Sorcerer Queen walked forward with a deep smile and patted his head. “How is it? Have you reunited with that person?”
Zhou Jin looked up at her.
The Sorcerer Queen did not care if he answered or not. The fingertips that were stroking his head flowed to his fair little face. “Look at you. You’re so beautiful. You’re clearlv onlv nine vears old, but vou’re actuallv much more capable than your brother.”
Zhou Jin let her play with his face. His expression was so calm that it was as if he was not the one being targeted by danger.
After the Sorcerer Queen was done touching him, she retracted her hand indifferently and pointed into the bedchamber. “That person is about to die. Do you want to save him?”
Zhou Jin still did not say anything and only looked at her steadily. Such clear but sharp eyes made the Sorcerer Queen feel a little uncomfortable. The Sorcerer Queen curled her lips and said slightly, “Actually, it’s very simple. As long as you give me something, I’ll help you save his life..”
