So, when the emperor and queen proposed to use that girl to replace her as Snow Princess, Xueer agreed without hesitation.

In her opinion, that lonely girl must also be longing to be loved, right?

In this way... share all your love with her, and she will definitely be happy.

With this mentality, Xueer hid herself from the public as Princess Snow.

The Emperor and Empress had most of their memories sealed and their appearance changed, and she eventually became Princess Snow and continued her life in place of Xue'er.

"She seems to be doing better than me. Mother likes her very much, too."

Xue'er gently pushed open the door and walked into the bedroom. A few wisps of elegant fragrance brushed past her nose, which was the scent she left behind.

As if it was a last burst of energy, Xue'er felt that she had inexplicably gained some strength these days, and could even go out for a walk alone without the support of others.

I'm afraid, time is running out...

There was a hint of attachment in Xue'er's eyes. It was not that she could face death calmly, but there was nothing she could do about it.

She tiptoed to the bed, touched the quilt with her fingers, and imagined another self.

From then on, she was the Snow Princess.

"who!"

At this moment, a low and hoarse voice suddenly shouted, and Xueer was so scared that she quickly retracted her hand.

She looked back in panic and saw a pale figure standing at the door, with a terrifying gaze piercing through her.

"How could we be discovered?"

Xue'er was shocked. Didn't her father cast a spell on her that would be ignored by everyone? How could an attendant see through it?

No, wait, the other party seems to be...

"Your Highness?" The old lady of etiquette saw a snow-white figure in the room and frowned slightly, "Why did you come back so soon? Could it be Xiao Mian..."

wrong.

The old lady of etiquette's pupils shrank slightly. The prince in front of her...gave her a different feeling.

The prince she had met before had given people the impression of being more resolute and cunning.

And now this...

But as soft as water.

"Mammy..."

Xue'er said with her head down.

The old etiquette officer became Snow Princess's etiquette officer only after her identity was replaced.

Before this, she had always been serving the Emperor and Empress, and had only met Xue'er a few times, but the time they had spent together was definitely not as much as it is now with Princess Snow.

"you..."

The old etiquette officer opened her mouth, but with her sharp eyes she soon discovered traces of the Immortal Emperor's magic on Xue'er's body.

...seems like he encountered something extraordinary.

The old lady of etiquette looked away stiffly, muttering in a low voice,

"Ah... Turns out there's no one here. I must have seen it wrong. I thought His Highness had returned. I'm getting more and more confused as I get older..."

As she was talking, the old etiquette officer left the room with her hands behind her back and her back hunched.

This was the only way she could get away...

"Huh?" Xue'er blinked, "No, you weren't discovered?"

She took small steps to the door of the room, and watched the old figure gradually disappear into the distance. It seemed that he really didn't notice her existence, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems that father's magic is still very reliable... ahem..."

It seemed that she had been out for a long time. Xue'er suddenly felt a little weak. She could only hold on to the wall and walk towards her hidden palace step by step.

When Xue'er left, the old etiquette officer appeared quietly where she had stood, looking at her back with a serious expression.

She hesitated whether to report this matter to the Emperor and Empress, but after thinking about it carefully, she realized that this might be the arrangement of the Emperor and Empress.

...But now, no matter which Snow Princess is fake, she can only treat it as the real one.

"The imperial family... is like this." The old lady of etiquette sighed, "I'm really worried that one day I'll find out something I shouldn't know..."

Perhaps even she, a maidservant accompanying the Emperor and Empress, could not guarantee her safety in this mess.

.......

After entering the auction, Luo Xue’s horizons instantly broadened.

Only then did she realize that the interior space of Tianlie Auction House might be about half larger than she had previously expected.

After all, the auction is the most important place in the entire auction house. The exhibition hall only displays some relatively rare exhibits, which are only exhibited because they do not meet the standards for auction.

Being able to hold daily auctions in a place like this would already be considered a large-scale auction outside the imperial capital.

The imperial capital is indeed much more prosperous, even at the fifteenth ring.

Vivia led the two of them to a VIP room, then dismissed the maids in the room and personally served Luo Xue and Nangong Mian.

The reason why she, an ace auctioneer, was asked to do all this was because she was the only one who knew Nangong Mian well, and secondly, it was to show that Tianlie Auction House valued the Nangong clan.

Of course, the most important thing is...

To prevent Nangong Mian from making random bids.

The price she called out must be paid to the seller by Tianlie Auction House...

If an item is worth 100,000 spirit stones, Nangong Mian will directly bid 1 million, and Tianlie Auction House will have to bear the extra losses itself.

Based on Vivia's understanding of Nangong Mian, she is entirely capable of doing such a thing.

Luo Xue was also somewhat interested. If there was something she wanted at the auction, she would have no problem bidding for it. She had enough spirit stones.

Chapter 163 Who entered my room?

This was Luo Xue's first time attending an auction, but nothing particularly unexpected happened.

After all, this was just a routine auction. Even the finale item was not that surprising to people like Luo Xue and Nangong Mian.

Of course, for Nangong Mian, as long as it is valuable, it’s fine.

It was no surprise that Nangong Mian won the final item, a jade flute that looked nothing like hers and was a rare spiritual weapon.

The grade is quite good, but due to its form, only Le Xiu can bring out the effectiveness of its spiritual weapon.

Of course Nangong Mian was going to sell it for money, but she did not sell it on the spot. Instead, she planned to return to Nangong Holy Land and find an opportunity to sell it to Le Xiu who needed a spiritual weapon and could afford a high price. This way, she could maximize her profits.

Luo Xue actually bought another ancient book "Compendium of Talismans", which made Nangong Mian very confused.

The reason why the three techniques have been lost in the world is not because of the lack of ancient books, but because they are simply impossible to use.

Even if one follows the methods in ancient books, one can only reach the foundation-building level at best.

If the level is higher, even the model cannot be built.

The ceiling only has things for building the foundation... naturally not many people would study it. There might be some mortals who want to find a shortcut and tinker with it a bit.

However, Nangong Mian still did not disturb the little princess's interest. After all, Her Highness had plenty of time, so it was normal for her to try some unconventional methods.

Vivia has been very nervous. She is nervous about Luo Xue. She really can't see through the little princess's thoughts.

Although he always behaves in a naive manner, when he is lost in thought, he appears terribly mature, as if he has gone through countless experiences.

Just getting along with this kind of person, who is deep-minded and of high status, is a headache for Vivia, and she can only serve him with great care.

Nangong Mian has a good personality... As long as you cooperate with her in bragging, we can be good sisters.

It was not until Luo Xue and Nangong Mian waved goodbye and left Tianlie Auction House that Vivia finally relaxed and walked towards her office.

But as soon as she opened the door, she found that a dim figure had appeared in the office.

"who!"

Vivia's heart tightened, but the dim figure bowed slightly to her, took out a bloody head, and said,

"Ms. Vivia, don't worry, he won't disturb your life again in the future."

This is...Linard's head.

Vivia's pupils shrank slightly, her stomach churned, and she almost retched.

He still had the terrified expression he had before death, his eyes bulging as if he had seen something terrible, tears of blood streaming down his cheeks, and his entire head was covered in fishy filth.

When Vivia came to her senses, the dim figure was no longer in the office. Only the faint smell of blood in the air proved that he had been there.

"The legendary imperial clan shadow guard..."

Vivia was still in shock. She had heard long ago that within the imperial clan there was a secret guard group that was only loyal to the Immortal Emperor. They had assassinated everyone from those who were called Du Hai to those who were innate.

Almost no one could live to see their existence, and Vivia knew very well that she was one of the few lucky ones.

Linard was the direct descendant of General Zhennan... and he was killed at will by the imperial clan's shadow guards, just like pinching an ant, or even beheaded.

The reason for sending the head to Vivia was to inform her that the trouble that had been bothering her had been solved, or perhaps as a reward for her taking care of the little princess.

second...

If she behaved inappropriately in front of the little princess, or deliberately exposed her identity, or led her in a malicious way, then the imperial clan's shadow guards would have another head in their hands.

Vivia slowly sat down on the chair, was silent for a while, and immediately drafted a leave application, intending to give up her work during this period and go to Nangong Holy Land to recuperate first.

This imperial capital is really not a place for people to stay...

"Vivya seems to be very afraid of me," Luo Xue recalled Vivya's behavior just now and frowned slightly, "Am I scary?"

"Very cute." Nangong Mian really wanted to ruffle Luo Xue's hair to see if this girl who always looked serious would be cuter with a messy look. "But... it's normal for her to be afraid, haha..."

Nangong Mian laughed it off, trying to get away with it.

After all, it has been many years since the emperor's son and princess appeared in the imperial capital, and their identities are still hidden. Anyone who encounters them will be extremely panicked.

Even the name of the Nangong clan can scare away the onlookers, not to mention the little princess of the imperial clan going out privately...

Among the princes and princesses before Princess Xue, the youngest was Princess Xing, who was about six thousand years older than Luo Xue. She was currently fighting against hostile barbarians at the border and was a cultivator in the Yuhua realm.

As for the other older princes and princesses, they either governed their fiefdoms or commanded troops stationed outside the territory. It had been thousands of years since any princes and princesses appeared in the imperial capital.

Nangong Mian secretly glanced at Luo Xue who was carefully reading the "Compendium of Talismans" and sighed in his heart that the little princess really had no idea how terrible her current identity was.

"I guess the few people who made sarcastic remarks in the crowd just now have been dealt with by the shadow guards..."

"What's wrong?" Luo Xue raised her head and asked in confusion, "Is there something on my face?"

"no no..."

Nangong Mian quickly coughed twice and turned his gaze away.

"Xue, where else do you want to go?"

"No, let's go back to the palace." Luo Xue closed the ancient book, carefully put away her small waist bag, and said, "If I play for too long, the nanny won't let me out next time."

Nangong Mian was stunned. His Highness was really good at planning. How come he even thought about the next time?

If it were her, she would definitely have fun for a while before going back when she thought about how hard it was to get out.

"Then, then I will take you back directly?" Nangong Mian asked again hesitantly, just to confirm.

"Uh-huh."

Luo Xue nodded.

There was no need to go to any special place to return to the Imperial Palace. Nangong Mian found a secluded place where no one was around, took out the token given to her by the old lady etiquette officer, injected spiritual power into it and began to awaken it.

The reason why he didn't give the token directly to Luo Xue was that he was worried that Luo Xue would hide the token and use it when she secretly left the palace next time.

The old etiquette officer could not bear the responsibility of letting Princess Snow get lost, so the token to return to the palace was given to Nangong Mian for safekeeping.

A ray of light extended from the token, slowly enveloping the bodies of Luo Xue and Nangong Mian, bringing a warm touch.

After a moment, the warm light dissipated, leaving nothing behind.

At the same time, the seemingly invisible gazes around fell silent as the warm light disappeared.
