Children of Loulan

Chapter 220 The Lost Pendant

After leaving the house, he called Dale and Baier and told them to wait outside the door. After giving them instructions, he turned and left, his steps were very brisk. Along the way, he was in a good mood, with a faint smile on his face, and walked straight to the kitchen.

Ziya, who was concentrating on teaching Baier martial arts, suddenly heard the prince's call. He quickly followed without hesitation, his steps light and agile. When he approached the prince, he keenly noticed that the prince was in a particularly good mood today, as if the sun was shining all over the world.

Ziya thought to herself that perhaps this was a perfect opportunity to try to convince the prince to change his mind.

After all, with Bayer's current learning progress, it would be almost impossible to defeat him within two years. So he mustered up his courage and prepared to ask the prince to withdraw his previous decision to expel him from the palace.

If he still needs to be punished, let Bayer beat him up, even if it's ten times! As long as he can continue to stay in the palace, however, he had just taken a few steps when he was blocked by the sudden appearance of Bai Xi.

Ziya was immediately furious, and asked with wide eyes, "Why did you stop me? The prince is so happy today, it's a good time to beg for mercy! And no matter how hard Bayer tries to learn martial arts, he will never be able to defeat me in just two years!"

Facing Ziya's questioning, Baixi just stared at him quietly, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes. Then, she said softly: "The reason why the prince is in a good mood must be that there is new progress between him and the princess. But you offended the maids beside the princess. Don't you remember what they said that day?"

Hearing this, Ziya was slightly startled, and the scene of that day emerged in his mind. He nodded silently, indicating that he did remember that incident.

Bai Xi said seriously, "If you still remember, the prince will remember it even more. He has finally shown a happy face and has forgotten those words for the time being. If you go to disturb the prince now and tell him that the princess lacks trust in him, then by then, will the prince continue to be happy or become more angry?"

Hearing Bai Xi's words, Ziya stood there in shock as if struck by lightning. His steps that were about to move forward seemed to be nailed to the spot, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not move an inch. He could only watch the prince walk further and further away, and his figure gradually disappeared from his sight.

At this time, Hanguli woke up slowly, looked around and was surprised to find that there was no one in the room. After a little hesitation, she stood up and walked straight to the door, stretched out her hand and gently pushed it open. However, the scene in front of her shocked her - she saw Dalbaier, Baixi and Ziya sitting in front of the door, with different expressions. Hanguli was confused and asked in confusion: "Why are you all here?"

The four of them stood up almost at the same time. Dar hurriedly explained, "The prince told Bayer and I to wait at the door. He said you were still sleeping soundly!"

Hanguli was very surprised after hearing this. She looked at Ziya and Baixi and asked with a puzzled look in her eyes: "Then why are you two here?"

Facing Hanguli's questioning, Baixi seemed a little uneasy. He hesitated for a moment, then replied with a little embarrassment: "Uh... We are just waiting for the prince here."

Hearing this, Hanguli felt even more puzzled. She frowned and asked, "Prince? Is he in this room?"

As she spoke, she turned around and walked into the house, because she clearly remembered that she did not see anyone when she woke up just now.

Seeing this, Dal and several other people followed Hanguli into the room. After Hanguli stood still, she looked around again, with a puzzled look on her face, and muttered to herself: "Strange, the prince is not here?"

At this time, Bayer hurriedly stepped forward and whispered to Hanguli, "Miss, the prince has gone to the kitchen."

After hearing this, Hanguli became even more puzzled and said to herself, "Kitchen? Is the prince hungry? Why doesn't he have someone deliver the food to the room?"

While they were talking, Dahl had already taken quick action, rushed to the bedside and began to tidy up the bedding. However, just as she was about to finish, suddenly, a small and exquisite object came into her sight - a familiar feeling came over her!

She carefully picked up the pendant and examined it for a long time, as if she had discovered some rare treasure. After looking at it, she confirmed that it was the pendant that the young lady had lost many years ago. Then, with a look of astonishment on her face, she quickly ran to Hanguli and shouted excitedly: "Young lady, look, your pendant is here!"

When they heard her voice, Bayer and Hanguli almost simultaneously cast their eyes towards the pendant in her hand. They stared at it with wide eyes, and their hearts were filled with confusion and shock. After some confirmation, they finally realized that this was indeed the precious pendant that Hanguli had accidentally lost many years ago.

Hanguli took the pendant carefully from the other party with shaking hands, as if it was a rare treasure. She stroked it repeatedly, with a light of disbelief flashing in her eyes, and murmured to herself: "Dal, where did you find it?"

Dahl smiled and replied, "It's right next to your pillow!" Her tone was relaxed and natural, but her eyes also revealed surprise!

Hanguli frowned and repeated in confusion: "Next to my pillow?" Obviously, she was very surprised by this answer.

Dahl nodded vigorously to show his affirmation, and added: "Yes, it's just outside your pillow! I saw it at a glance." While speaking, she also pointed to the specific place where she found the pendant to enhance credibility.

Bayer on the side couldn't help but interrupt: "Miss, this is so strange! You know, this pendant was lost when we were still in Baiya Village. Now it appears here inexplicably... I really can't understand it!" She shook her head as she spoke, her face full of confusion.

Hanguli fell into deep thought, trying to recall. She clearly remembered that when she came back from the palace, there was no pendant beside her pillow before she fell asleep. And the only person in the room with her at that time was the prince.

Could it be that the prince placed it here? But the question is, how did the prince get this pendant? A series of questions came to Hanguli's mind, making her feel more and more strange.

At the same time, she couldn't help but think of the prince's recent actions that seemed to be intended to please her, so she guessed that the prince might have been to Baiya Village that year. However, what the truth was, I'm afraid she could only know it when she went to ask the prince in person.

When Ziya and Baixi saw the pendant, they exchanged glances and understood each other without words - the prince was obviously going to confess to the princess that he had been involved in Baiya Village. However, this matter would only be more effective if the prince himself said it.
