Chapter 471 Horrifying Face
Chapter 471 Horrifying Face
When this exhausted team finally arrived at Yicheng after dark and settled down, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the heavy rain came as expected.
However, the county magistrate brought Ye Nanming a shocking news - the new princess had not arrived yet! This sudden change made Ye Nanming nervous in an instant.
Ye Nanming thought to himself that he had checked the carriage himself before and the new princess was not inside. In order to find out the truth of the matter, Ye Nanming decided not to ask Prince Zhan about it for the time being, but quietly went to the backyard that was specially used to house the new princess Ni Naina to find out.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Ye Nanming immediately sensed a strange atmosphere. It was so quiet that not even a single servant could be seen.
When he gently pushed open the door, the scene inside the room came into view: Ni Naina was sitting quietly in front of the dressing table, wearing an exquisite phoenix mask on her face, and was elegantly combing her long black hair that fell like a waterfall. She was wearing a bright and eye-catching red dress, the color was like a burning flame, and she was so similar to the red-dressed woman who mysteriously appeared last night riding a giant wolf.
Ye Nanming couldn't help but frown slightly, and the doubts in his heart grew stronger.
"Your Highness, why are you rushing here in such a hurry?" Ni Naina turned her head slightly, looked through the mirror at Ye Nanming who was standing not far behind her, and asked softly.
When Ye Nanming heard Ni Naina's question, he hurriedly took a few steps forward and answered after getting closer, "You went to see the witch yesterday. I was really worried, so I hurried to see if you were okay."
After hearing what Ye Nanming said, Ni Nainai smiled slightly, gently put down the wooden comb in her hand, turned around to face Ye Nanming, and said slowly: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern. Everything is fine with me."
Ye Nanming breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at Ni Nainai who was safe and sound, but he couldn't help but ask, "I want to ask, when you went to the witch's place last night, did they give you any trouble? After all, the witch has always been mysterious and her behavior is quite strange."
Upon hearing this, Ni Naina chuckled and replied disapprovingly: "Your Highness, you are worrying too much! I am their guest, who would embarrass her guest?"
"That's good, as long as you are safe and sound, it's enough. You have been traveling all the way and it must be hard work. If there is anything you need my help with, just let me know." Ye Nanming said manly.
"It's just a small matter." Ni Naina said calmly, with an understated tone, as if it was really just a trivial matter.
Upon hearing this, Ye Nanming nodded slightly and said softly: "In this case, I will arrange some meals for the new princess." After that, he turned around and was about to leave.
"Your Highness, please stay!" Ni Naina called softly.
Ye Nanming stopped walking when he heard the voice, slowly turned around, looked at Ni Nainai with a smile, and asked softly, "Is there anything you want to eat?"
Ni Nainai gently raised her hand and slowly took off the mask on her face. As the mask was removed bit by bit, a creepy and extremely ugly face gradually appeared in front of Ye Nanming.
What a face it was! The eyes, mostly white, were extremely asymmetrical, one was exaggeratedly large, and the other was as small as a bean; the huge nostrils that pointed upwards looked like two black holes; the lips were torn from the corners of the mouth to the roots of the ears, which made people shudder; not to mention the cheeks full of deep and shallow burn scars, like a hideous ghost face. Such a face can be described as "horrible".
However, despite facing such a horrifying scene, Ye Nanming's smile did not change at all, still as gentle and friendly, and there was not a trace of disgust or fear in his eyes.
"Don't bother arranging meals. I feel a little tired today and want to rest early." Ni Naina said as she gently took off the bright red shirt on her body, revealing the fiery red inner garment.
"Well, you should take a good rest and don't overwork yourself." Seeing this, Ye Nanming did not force her, but spoke softly, then slowly turned around and left the room with steady steps.
Just as Ye Nanming was about to disappear at the door, Ni Nainai waved her jade hand lightly, a faint light flashed, and the magic that was originally cast on her face to conceal her presence instantly dissipated. In an instant, a beautiful, breathtaking face was revealed in the air without reservation.
Ye Nanming actually had doubts in his heart and wanted to ask her what happened between her and the witch last night, but when he saw the cold expression of the woman in front of him, he couldn't say anything. It was as if an invisible force was blocking him, making him not know how to start, and not knowing where to start asking questions.
Moreover, judging from Ni Naina's calm and composed demeanor, it seemed that everything in this world was under her control, and there was no need for others to interfere. Would such a woman bring obstacles to his plans?
