A white figure appeared in front of Su Ji's window. Her white clothes were fluttering in the wind, and her shiny black hair was falling down lightly. She looked like a beautiful fairy descending from the sky. Her graceful figure was like flowing water, like a budding lily.
"Usually, I can see you everywhere. Now, it's even better. I just arrived, and you're here to join in the fun. Could it be that you miss me too?”
"Oh, looks like I came at the wrong time. Sorry to disturb you guys! But this is my home, so there's no need to apologize. But Gang Leader Zheng, if you have something to do, you can walk through the main door. At that time, I definitely won't mistake you for a thief, right? Lady Wang!"
"She is my family. If she enters through the main door and the Beggar's Sect Master comes to the Prince's mansion just to find a flower slave, it will be a disgrace to your highness and also to me, your younger brother, right? Wangye!"
" Haha, what a family meeting. It seems that I was overthinking." Since Tuoba Li landed on the ground, his hands had been behind his back. Now, he showed his hand that was holding a wine pot and extended it in front of Su Ji.
"Come, come, let's have a drink! I should be the host, right?”
"But I can't drink. I only drink tea, so…"
"That's great. I have green tea at home. Let's go and try it together.”
" This..." Su Ji's mouth turned into an 'O' shape.
"Your highness, you really treat the wise with courtesy? You treat a servant so well. You really make me look at you in a new light.”
"It's rare to meet someone who knows how to taste green tea. Then, the two of you, follow me!”Tuoba Li's face froze for a moment before he immediately smiled.
" Then I won't stand on ceremony. I've taken advantage of someone." Zheng Jun took the lead and walked in front.
"Looks like I can't refuse. Thank you, Your Highness!”Su Ji didn't hesitate and followed Tuoba Li to a courtyard.
The residence here was not very big, but it was very imposing. The entire courtyard was brightly lit.
In front of the door, there were four stone lanterns, each more than a meter tall. There were candles placed inside, very similar to palace lanterns.
The three words 'Bright Moon House' were bold and powerful. Under the illumination of the lights, the golden words were flowing with light and color, looking very luxurious.
After entering the room, Su Ji saw a square table with four chairs. There were no candles in the room, but it was as bright as daytime. Su Ji searched for the source of the light.
Su Ji was really frightened. The luminous pearl was as big as ten centimeters. It was black and very dazzling. It was hanging directly from the beam of the house. It was very beautiful.
"My God!" Su Ji sighed. How was this a prince's mansion? Was this simply forcing people to commit crimes? As Su Ji, although I saw a lot of luminous pearls when I came to this world, such a big one actually made her, a person who had no desires, want to take it for herself.
"You stupid woman, what are you muttering about? It's a mess."
"It hurts!" Su Ji's face changed from a greedy one to a bitter one.
Zheng Jun, this petty fellow, actually flicked her head. It really hurt.
However, this time, Su Ji didn't have the urge to strangle him. Luckily, he woke her up. Otherwise, she would have drooled and embarrassed herself. This time, Su Ji really had to thank him.
Su Ji came back to her senses and sat opposite Tuoba Li. Soon, tea was served.
Su Ji picked up the teapot and put the three teacups together. She poured half a cup for each of them and shook the teacups. Then, she poured them out and poured another cup.
"Alright, let's start tasting!" Su Ji's skillful and strange way of pouring tea was stunning. The two handsome men were dumbfounded.
" I made this tea myself. I made it for fun when I had nothing to do. Sorry to see you laughing at me." Su Ji looked at them with a teasing face. She took a sip of the tea first.
The taste was very similar to the green tea I usually drank, but it was clearer and the fragrance was stronger. She liked elegant people very much. In the 21st century, green tea was very common. She walked her father's tea roots every day.
Now that she was drinking green tea, she felt like she was in her hometown. It reminded her of her father. He always blamed Su Ji for not refilling the tea after drinking it. At that time, she didn't think much of it, but now it had become her wish.
Su Ji sipped the fragrant tea with a nostalgic look on her face. She didn't notice the two people beside her.
"Last time, I drank three cups of tea at Red Sweeping Tower, but I was forced to stay in the latrine for six hours. I wonder if I will do the same this time?”
"What if I'm the same as you? I was luckier than you. I only drank one cup and stayed in the toilet for four hours. I thought it was you that time. Could it be…"
Tuoba Li pursed his lips and stared at Zheng Jun with a mysterious look in his eyes.
"Stupid woman, it really is you?" Zheng Jun struck first, his hands moving faster than his mouth.
A finger immediately fell on Su Ji's head. The result was obvious.
"You, why did you flick me again? It hurts so much?”
"I can understand why you caused him to run his stomach and have diarrhea, but why did you plot against me? My flower servant!"
" Underhand, diarrhea..." Su Ji finally understood. Last time, she had caused Zheng Jun a lot of trouble and forced him to stay in the toilet for the whole night. However, Tuoba Li didn't know about this." The backyard is on fire, and the fish in the moat are implicated. I don't know why you've added more to my toilet tea." Su Ji turned to Zheng Jun and said," Who asked you to have such a foul mouth? Serves you right. I'm still showing mercy."”
Su Ji stuck out her tongue at Zheng Jun, then turned to Tuoba Li. She put her palms together and nodded repeatedly." I didn't do it on purpose. Tuoba Li, please forgive me." Please, I really didn't do it on purpose. I promise!”Su Ji stretched out her hands to both sides of her head and swore to the heavens.
"Alright? I understand that I'm unlucky. You didn't mean to harm me, right?”Tuoba Li's face was already twisted into a ball, and a sinister smile appeared on his face.
Su Ji broke out in a cold sweat. She didn't know if this prince would argue with her.
"You were knocked unconscious by me, yet you dare to call his highness by his full name? Then we'll settle this score when you get home. I'm leaving first!”
Zheng Jun left, but he left behind the teacup that he had shattered.
It seems that Zheng Jun is indeed very angry, and it's not any better than the time he lost to me.
"Tuoba Li, it's been a long time since someone called me that. I remember that my mother used to call me that when she was still alive.”
"I was just anxious at that time and accidentally called him that. I'm sorry!”Su Ji cupped her hands and apologized with a devout look on her face, which made people's hearts ache.
"I don't think I can forgive you for saying that you didn't do it on purpose.”Su Ji's face tensed up as she looked at Tuoba Li nervously." But…it's…" Tuoba Li deliberately dragged out his voice.
" However, you came here to help a friend and volunteered to plant flowers for me. I can let this matter go, but..."
Su Ji craned her neck and waited for Tuoba Li to continue. She had just heaved a sigh of relief when he stopped again. He was really torturing her.
"Tuoba Li, why don't you finish your sentence in one breath? It also saves me from worrying."
Tuoba Li had a helpless expression on his face. Someone had actually called him by his real name twice in the blink of an eye. He was a little unhappy. Coupled with the fact that he had been poisoned, it only added fuel to the fire.
"Lady Wang, I am King Jing of this dynasty, so I naturally won't hold this matter against you. However, I'm afraid that people who don't know the truth will think that King Jing is easy to bully and lose the face of the Northern Wei Dynasty.”
"Ai, your highness, I won't say it, and you won't say it. So what if people find out? Who am I? To Northern Wei, you are insignificant, but you are different. You are the king, the pillar of Northern Wei. If you sneeze, Northern Wei will tremble three times. If you don't say anything, who would dare to say anything? If you feel wronged, I'd rather be punished. Because His Highness has helped me time and time again, causing such a wise, mighty, and handsome Lord Weiwu to be hurt. The degree of my heartache is simply 10, not 100, 10,000, so I'm willing to accept His Highness 'punishment."
Su Ji's face was filled with sorrow as she looked at Tuoba Li pitifully.
Su Ji was sure that no one could escape her skill of "flattering and covering up".
"Alright, since I'm so wise and mighty, I won't argue with you anymore.”
"It's true, as expected of your highness. You really have the demeanor of a general. I really like your highness."
Su Ji's face was full of joy. When she realized that she had said the word 'like', her ears immediately turned red, from the top of her head to her neck.
Su Ji wished she could strangle herself to death. For modern people, they liked to be treated as a joke in such a situation. However, it was ancient times now, so she would definitely be thought of as a lovestruck fool.
Su Ji's face was flushed red as she stood rooted to the ground. Tuoba Li remained unmoved, as if he had not heard anything. He merely smiled.
" Ahem…" Tuoba Li coughed a few times on purpose to stop Su Ji from daydreaming.
"Your Highness, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave." Su Ji stood up and ran away.
To his highness, he was too beautiful. There must be many people who liked him. Perhaps he had seen this kind of thing too many times and did not have any reaction. This was normal.
" Forget it, I will just treat him as a deaf person. Anyway, I don't really like him, so I will just treat it as if this matter did not happen. Dou Dou Fei, it's gone." Su Ji's two index fingers touched each other twice and then separated. This was Dou Dou flying.
Su Ji walked quietly in the silent night. She controlled her emotions and her red face gradually recovered. She strode towards her house.
"Hey!" Mu Heng walked over and patted her shoulder." What are you thinking about? I've been waiting for you for half a day. Where have you been?”
"It's so scary. It's so late at night. Is there anything you need from me?”
"A few days ago, I went out of the residence to handle some matters and just came back. I specially came to see you. I waited for you for a long time and was just about to look for you when you appeared. I called you several times, but you didn't answer. Why are you so focused?"
Su Ji looked helpless. She didn't want to tell Mu Heng what had just happened, lest the prince took the opportunity to make a fuss.
"It's nothing. I was just thinking that I should let wangye try that flower first tomorrow.”
"Seriously, it's so late. Don't damage your body. Take care of your body, okay?”
He put his palms together and begged like a little bunny.
Su Ji was so amused by him that she tried her best to hold back her laughter. Her face was tense, and she let out a scream and burst into laughter.
" Lass, how dare you laugh at me? I'll get angry if you laugh again." Mu Heng's face had indeed turned unusually serious.
" Alright, I've endured it. Oh no, let's talk about it tomorrow. I need to go to the toilet." Before she finished her sentence, Su Ji had already run far away.
He did not understand what was going on, but it was the first time he saw her so anxious.
In her eyes, although the little girl in front of her was not very good-looking, she was very calm when she encountered something. It was as if she had never run away when danger came, nor was she as anxious as she was now. Therefore, he was worried and followed her.
"What happened? What's a toilet?”
Su Ji looked embarrassed when she saw Mu Heng, who was about to catch up with her.
"The latrine?"
Mu Heng stopped abruptly, his face redder than Su Ji's.
" This girl, so what if it's a toilet? Why did you insist on calling it a toilet? I was so nervous for nothing!" Mu Heng shouted at Su Ji from a distance."Be careful, don't fall!"
Mu Heng left with a smile on his face while Su Ji dashed into the outhouse.
Su Ji didn't go back to her own room that night. She stayed in the outhouse for the whole night. It wasn't until daybreak that she dragged her arms and legs and moved to the bed step by step.
Su Ji didn't care about her stomach's protest anymore. She just wanted to have a good sleep because she was so weak that she couldn't even open her eyes.
After a long time, Su Ji slowly opened her eyes. In her dream, she was eating the congee with pork and century egg cooked by her mother. It seemed to be very sweet and fragrant.
When she woke up, she could still smell the fragrance at the corner of her mouth. She subconsciously licked her lips.
When Su Ji opened her eyes, the first person she saw was Tuoba Li's charming face.
Her usual seductive smile looked like a sinister one now. She did not need to guess to know that this was Tuoba Li's handiwork, causing her to poop the entire night.
"Miss Wang, you've already slept for a day and a night. I specially asked the kitchen to make you a bowl of porridge. Drink it!”Tuoba Li respectfully handed over a bowl of warm food.
