"General, our Third Miss is famous again.。。”
Ruan Yiying lifted the curtain of the tent and walked in. He was still dressed in white, with a jade belt wrapped around his waist. His black hair was tied up with a jade hairpin, looking handsome and elegant. He waved the jade fan in his hand, not like the military counselor, but rather like a noble young master.
Lin Chengqi was wearing a green robe with a round neck and narrow sleeves. He had a wide belt and a jade pendant. There was no special expression on his cold face as he followed behind Ruan Yiying.
"What's wrong?" Leng Peiyuan raised his head from the desk, his expression no longer surprised. After six years of training, anything could happen to his daughter, who was colder than him.
"Do you still remember the missing woman case that caused the government a headache some time ago?”Ruan Yiying sat on the chair and took a sip of tea from the coffee table.
"Of course." Leng Peiyuan nodded. They had also intervened before. After a period of investigation, they knew that the culprits were a group of men with strong martial strength. However, they were very cunning, and every time they gave alms, they would eventually escape. He even left a note to mock the incompetence of the government, angering everyone so much that they gritted their teeth but were powerless.
"Did they sneak into Yao City to commit another crime?”Leng Peiyuan raised his eyebrows. Those guys were really bold. They dared to mess around under Tian Zi's feet, but Yi Ying asked them if they had been treated by their precious daughter.
"Yes, I am." Ruan Yiying laughed." I didn't expect to be caught red-handed by our Third Miss."”He was getting more and more impressed by that petite but cold Third Miss. Heavens, he said that she captured the two thieves in two moves, then followed the clues and caught the other accomplices through the two arrested people. Amazing, really amazing! It was simply impossible to treat her as a child. Could this be the so-called genius?
Lin Chengqi sat at the side, and his cold eyes could not help but flash with admiration.
"Like father, like daughter." Leng Peiyuan said lightly, but his slightly raised lips revealed his pride. In fact, he had always regretted that the two sons and one daughter that Mu Zhaoyun had given birth to for him did not have the bravery of the descendants of Tiger Sect. Unexpectedly, his daughter, Wan Wan, who he had almost forgotten, was so outstanding at such a young age. The deficiency in his heart was finally filled.
" But…" Ruan Yiying took out a piece of paper from her robe." This is a letter from the butler. I wonder what it says?"”He handed it to Pei Lengyuan. He had a premonition that it was a letter that would make General Leng Ao change his face.
"I'm afraid it's also about catching thieves.”Leng Peiyuan smiled and took the letter." What's going on?!”The faint smile in her eyes froze when she saw the contents of the letter. An unfamiliar man had actually appeared in the residence and was even following the twists and turns?
"What's wrong?" Ruan Yiying asked. Was it something serious? The general looked surprised.
Lin Chengqi raised his eyebrows and exchanged glances with Ruan Yiying. No one knew what was written in the letter that made the general's face change color.
"Take a look." Leng Peiyuan handed the letter to Ruan Yiying.
"Yi, Yu Heng actually appeared in General Manor?”Ruan Yiying was also surprised when she saw the familiar name on the letter.
Lin Chengqi raised his eyebrows. That famous young martial arts world leader?
"You know him?" Leng Peiyuan looked at Ruan Yiying.
"Eh, didn't I tell you?”Ruan Yiying blinked." He's the young martial arts leader, Chu Yuheng. He's also my junior brother.”One of them specialized in martial arts, while the other specialized in military law and formations. Later, after leaving the mountain, one of them went to war while the other returned to his family and became the leader of the martial arts world. They did not have time to move around, but they often exchanged letters.
"Is he also the disciple of the old man?”Leng Peiyuan and Lin Chengqi were both surprised. Leng Peiyuan did not know much about the martial arts world. Lin Chengqi didn't expect that although most people knew that the young leader Chu Yuheng was highly skilled in martial arts, they didn't know which sect he came from. Chu Yuheng himself was more wild and unruly, and he didn't speak to others easily.
"Yes." Ruan Yiying nodded." Yuheng is Master's last disciple."”His master, the old man, was a reclusive expert who was proficient in astronomy, geography, martial arts, and medicine. If it wasn't for a coincidence, he wouldn't have met his master and wouldn't have become his disciple. Everything was fate.
"Since he's Ying's junior brother, I'm naturally at ease.”At least he was not a stranger with ulterior motives. Leng Peiyuan heaved a sigh of relief.
"Haha, General, are you worried that other men will kidnap your daughter?”Seeing Leng Peiyuan's expression, Ruan Yiying could not help but tease him. Although they were technically subordinates, he, Leng Peiyuan, and Lin Chengqi were actually close friends.
Hearing Ruan Yiying's teasing words, Lin Chengqi could not help but smile.
"You're thinking too much." When Leng Peiyuan heard this, he could not help but laugh. "Wan Wan is only nine years old now. She's still a child.”However, when Wan Wan married out, he might really be reluctant.
"Hahaha…"
Ruan Yiying couldn't help but laugh. She was really confused. However, Leng Wanwan didn't seem like a child.
"Right, Ying, Qi, the Empress Dowager's birthday is coming. I'm going back to Yao City. I'll leave the military camp to you. Recently, Roaring Tiger Nation and Bei Bangguo were not very peaceful and had been secretly playing tricks. You have to be careful. Don't let them take the opportunity to come out and harass the people of our border.”Leng Peiyuan's face was solemn when it came to state affairs. Hu Xiao and Bei Bangguo had been eyeing the Heavenly Shine Empire with great ambitions. They could not afford to be careless.
"Don't worry, General." Ruan Yiying's joking expression was gone as well. His refined and refined face was solemn.
"Our army will not give them such an opportunity.”Lin Chengqi promised.
"Alright." Leng Peiyuan nodded." Thank you for your hard work!”
After handing over all the matters, he was ready to return to Yao City.
Yaocheng? general Manor
The courtyard was filled with flowers and trees, and the path was paved with pebbles. A gentle breeze blew, and the flowers and trees swayed. The fresh fragrance of flowers filled the air. There were fake mountains, pavilions, and green ponds.
Leng Wanwan was wearing a white dress, and there was a valuable jade pendant hanging from her waist. There was no expression on her pink face. As she moved, the silver bell on her wrist rang.
Chu Yuheng followed behind her. He was also dressed in a white robe with a jade belt around his waist. His long robe swayed, and his black hair was tied up high. A few strands of hair fell from his forehead, making him look handsome and unruly. He stayed in the General's residence for a few days and went in and out with Leng Wanwan. They didn't discover any secrets hidden in her body, but this little doll was not just an ordinary cold and ruthless person. That aura of supremacy made everyone afraid. No one in the entire General's manor dared to refute her words. Outside the manor, even the evil young master would be afraid of her. Behind her back, people called her a little devil or a little demon girl. However, although she was cold and ruthless, she did not do evil things. Instead, she eliminated many evil people. Only by provoking her would one know how powerful she was.
"Miss Wan Wan, Young Master Chu." The butler looked around and finally saw the person he was looking for.
"What is it?" Leng Wanwan looked at the sweaty butler and asked lightly.
"Someone from the palace has arrived." The butler lowered his head slightly and replied respectfully. The general isn't here, so Wan Wan is in charge of the residence now. The eunuchs in the palace came to read out the imperial edict, so she naturally had to lead everyone to receive it.
"Imperial Palace?" Leng Wanwan furrowed her brows. Although she knew that she had something to do with the Imperial Palace after dressing up as the daughter of a powerful general, she was still repelled in her heart. He had read too many palace dramas and novels in modern times, and the palace had almost become a symbol of conspiracy, darkness, and bloodshed. More importantly, she hated kneeling down to others. It felt like she was inferior to them.
"Yes." The butler nodded." Eunuch is already waiting in the hall."”
"Why are the people from the palace here?" Chu Yuheng raised his eyebrows slightly, his deep eyes revealing some interest. "I want to go with you." He looked at Leng Wanwan and said.
"Up to you." Leng Wanwan left these two words and walked towards the hall.
Chu Yuheng shrugged. He was used to her cold expression. He was no longer as irritable as before and followed after her.
The butler paused, shook his head, and followed.
Leng Wanwan and the others walked into the hall and saw a few palace guards standing guard outside. After entering the hall, a eunuch wearing a green robe and holding a horsetail whisk stood in the room. He wasn't tall and was a little thin. His skin was fair and clear, and there were wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and forehead. He looked to be in his fifties or sixties.
"He's the emperor's eunuch and also the chief eunuch, Xu Mao.”the butler whispered to Leng Wanwan.
Leng Wanwan sized up the eunuch. In many novels, the chief eunuch was a villain who flattered others for power, but this eunuch had sharp eyes and looked a little serious.
"Eunuch, this is our Third Miss.”The butler stepped forward and introduced them to Xu Mao and Leng Wanwan.
"Miss Leng." Xu Mao nodded slightly at Leng Wanwan as he looked at this little girl. A look of admiration flashed in his sharp eyes. It was no wonder that the daughter of the Tiger Sect had such an imposing manner at such a young age.
"Eunuch." Leng Wanwan also turned slightly towards Xu Maofu. Her voice was calm and did not have a trace of fluctuation.
"Everyone from the Leng Residence, listen up." Xu Mao pulled open the imperial edict with both hands, and his sharp voice rang out. "In accordance with the heavens, the emperor has decreed. The Empress Dowager's birthday is approaching, and all officials are specially summoned to the palace with their families to celebrate with her. Respect this!"
"Long live the emperor.”
Everyone in the hall of the Leng Residence knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
Only Leng Wanwan's petite frame stood there, her aura cold. Her cherry lips pursed slightly, not accepting the decree.
Xu Mao raised his eyebrows. The others kneeling on the ground were also anxious. Even Chu Yuheng was worried about her reaction. Although she had always been arrogant and condescending, was this the time to show off her personality? That was the emperor's order. If he was not careful, his entire family would be implicated.
"I wonder if Third Young Lady's current actions are disregarding the Emperor's orders?”This was the first time Xu Mao had encountered such an attitude.
"Didn't you announce the decree? I will enter the palace." Imperial decree? Wasn't it just a piece of paper? If she wanted Leng Wanwan to kneel before a piece of paper, she would have to be crazy.
" You…" Xu Maozhen was furious. He had thought that she only had the arrogance of a tiger queen, but he did not expect her to look down on the royal family like this. She really deserved to be punished.
"Eunuch, Eunuch." The butler felt cold sweat seeping out of his forehead. He quickly stood up." Let's talk further."”As he spoke, he pulled the angry Xu Mao out of the hall.
Everyone only saw him muttering something in Xu Mao's ear. Although Xu Mao's expression was still ugly, he finally left. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, but they didn't dare to criticize Leng Wanwan. They could only hold their breaths and disperse.
Chu Yuheng whistled at Leng Wanwan. This little girl really made him admire her more and more. He was strong enough to challenge the imperial power.
"I also want to enter the palace." She was so strong that he was looking forward to her performance in the palace. 'It should be interesting,' he thought. He could not help but say.
"Up to you." Leng Wanwan glared at him. She was more willing to believe that he was a prodigal son who was so idle that she wanted to chop him up.
Chu Yuheng smiled evilly. He knew she would say that.
