The lotus depression was still as quiet and peaceful as before. The air was filled with the faint fragrance of herbs.
Above the warm pool, the water vapor condensed into a mist, causing one to feel as if everything was unrealistic, ethereal, and illusory.
A girl was floating in the water with her head resting on the stone platform. When she saw the person coming out of the house, a smile crept up her face. She placed her hands on the stone platform and jumped up forcefully. Then, she stood beside Dark Cloud. Her entire body was drenched, making her figure look lithe and exquisite.
The voice came over and gradually became clearer."…Why do you keep jumping down for no reason? What's so hard about that? Even if you want to die, don't choose the peak. How can anyone die here? Besides, how did they climb up the mountain?”
It was his master's voice. He still loved to complain. Judging from his robust appearance, he should be fine.
As Moon Lord approached, Leng Shuiyun stood there motionlessly. Water dripped down from her hair, and her smile gradually widened. When Moon Lord saw his disciple, he was calm and collected. He turned around and said to his wife," Don't worry. He didn't want to commit suicide.”
"Then who is it?" It was Master's wife's voice, still so gentle and kind.
"Master's wife, Yun 'Er is back to see you!”As soon as she finished speaking, a slender figure pounced on her and was hugged in her arms. Lotus Immortal was sweating profusely. This vile girl didn't know that she was wet all over? She hid in her embrace. This is good. My clothes were also wet by her.
"Don't stand outside. Hurry up and enter the house. Change your clothes first.”Lotus Immortal walked into the house first." Old man, make Yun 'er a bowl of ginger soup to drive away the cold."”
Leng Shuiyun was following behind Master's wife. When she heard the word 'ginger soup', she was frightened and quickly refused," No need, Master's wife. It's fine. I'm not cold."”
"Even if you're not cold, you have to drink it to ward off the cold.”She took out a set of clothes from the wardrobe and changed into them. Seeing Leng Shuiyun's bitter face, she felt secretly pleased. However, she couldn't let her wear wet clothes all the time. She hurriedly urged," Change your clothes first."”
This disciple had lived in Lian 'ao for five years and had been fed ginger soup by him for five years. In the end, when he heard these two words, he looked like he was about to cry. After changing her clothes, she went out and saw that the old man had already placed the ginger soup on the table. It was boiling. As expected, Yun 'Er walked forward with a dark face and picked up the bowl to her nose to sniff. She immediately put it away in disgust and looked at herself with a pitiful expression." Good Yun' Er, drink quickly."”
She understood that she would not go against the words of the two of them. She sat down and drank it mouthful by mouthful. It was impossible for her to drink the ginger soup that had just been boiled. She would definitely torture this girl to death. She frowned. Seeing that she had finished the ginger soup, she handed her a plum." I'll go prepare lunch. You guys can chat."”
Leng Shuiyun felt that her mouth was filled with the disgusting taste of ginger. However, she also knew that Master's wife was doing this for her own good. After she finished drinking, she even thoughtfully handed her a plum.
The taste was slightly replaced." Master's wife, don't trouble yourself. You can eat whatever you want."”
A voice with a hint of a smile was heard." Don't you need someone to cook for you?"”
He put on a serious expression and looked at his master sitting above him. He looked much older than before. Although the injury this time was not a big deal, it still had a certain impact. "Master's wife wrote that Master misses Yun 'Er?”
She smiled kindly and spoke in an amiable tone," Yes, I miss Yun 'Er.”
She reached out and tugged at the white beard on his chin." I think I'm real. It's only half. What's the other half?”
His master stroked his beard and smiled." As expected of my disciple. Smart."”After saying that, he went straight to the point.
" The Phoenix Palace has been active for the past month. Many orthodox kung fu experts of the Central Plains have been ambushed. They are all quite ruthless in their attacks. Those who are slightly weaker will either lose their limbs or even be crippled." "A few days ago, the righteous path experts joined forces to attack the Phoenix Palace. I didn't expect to be surrounded instead. We lost many experts and even I was injured.”
Moon Lord paused for a moment before continuing," The Phoenix Palace used to only oppose the Central Plains. They didn't have any ambitions. But who would have thought that ever since Feng Yi took over as the palace master, the Phoenix Palace's power had gradually grown and now they wanted to unify the martial arts world.”
The more Moon Lord spoke, the angrier he became. Leng Shuiyun could also roughly guess that there was a spy from the Phoenix Palace in the righteous path.
Slowly, Moon Lord's voice weakened." This time, I'm really old. I can't refuse to accept my age. In the past, this injury would have been able to make him feel energetic in a few days. Now, it had been nearly a month. With a little circulation, his chest still hurt a little. Yun 'Er, I won't beat around the bush with you. I called you back to discuss with you if you have the time to help me. You also know that other than the older generation who are highly skilled in martial arts, there are only the few of you in the younger generation.”
"Master, I understand. Yun 'Er will do her best. Master, don't worry.”Feng Yi was the woman who stood proudly on the flagpole. He had only fought to a draw with her, and there was no winner.
"Just remember, don't take any risks.”His master said earnestly.
At this moment, the master's wife entered the house. Her eyes were red." It's not that I want to criticize you, but Yun 'Er is a girl. Why do you have to ask her to go? There are so many men. Do you have to ask a little girl to put herself in danger?”
"Master's wife, don't forget how many of those men you spoke of were defeated by me.”Leng Shuiyun's words were so powerful that it felt like she was stepping on all men.
"Master's wife knows, but she's worried about you.”
Moon Monarch handed a letter to Leng Shuiyun." Take this letter to the Ling Family in Martial City and look for your Uncle Ling. He will understand." Now, many orthodox martial artists were gathered in Martial City. They were just waiting for an order and would attack the Phoenix Palace again.”
Leng Shuiyun took the letter and read through it. She roughly understood the meaning of the letter." Understood, Master. Yun 'er will set off for Martial City tomorrow.”
"You're leaving tomorrow? Yun 'Er has only been back for less than a day.”The Lotus Immortal complained, but she understood the importance of it. She would not stop him.
"Yes, you will set off tomorrow morning. Don't delay.”
"The dishes are almost done. Let's eat first.”After saying that, Lotus Immortal turned around and left, followed by Leng Shuiyun.
He helped set up the bowls and chopsticks and served the dishes that Master's wife had personally cooked. When Master's wife cooked, she would add herbs to strengthen the body, so every dish would taste more or less like medicine, but it tasted very good.
Lan Xuanhan woke up and felt slightly better. He got up and leaned against the bed. Butler Wei came in and said that Sixth Master was here. Didn't this kid just leave? Why did he come back?
Before she could figure it out, she had already entered the house. Sixth Brother was a little mischievous, but he was actually very smart and responsible. He had always been on good terms with him and the Crown Prince. In the harem, only Sixth Brother's mother, Consort Hui, was close to the Empress.
"What brings Sixth Brother back?”Lan Xuanhan asked weakly. His mind was much clearer. Perhaps it was really a heavy rain that woke him up. In fact, he had gained unexpected gains from this impulse.
"Little brother, if you have something to say, say it directly.”Lan Xuanhan gave him a look that told him to let it go.
"I heard that Third Brother angered Imperial Father this time because of his marriage to Princess Lan Xin?”It was a question, not a certainty. He received another 'you guessed it right' look. Continue.
"Third Older Brother doesn't want to get married because he has a girl he likes?”Lan Xuanhan replied softly.
"Then little brother would be so bold as to ask third brother to give Princess Lan Xin to me.”Sixth Brother mustered up his courage. He knew that this path was not easy to walk either.
"Sixth Brother, did Big Brother hear wrongly?" He was surprised and looked at his sixth brother for confirmation. However, the sixth master nodded fiercely.
Just as he was about to say something, someone came to say," Princess Lan Xin came to visit when she learned that His Highness was sick.”
"Third brother, I'll hide first." Godfather Liu hid behind the screen.
Lan Xuanhan sat up and tidied his clothes before waiting for Princess Lan Xin to enter the house.
When she came in, she saw him sitting there drinking tea. It didn't seem like anything serious had happened. "I heard that your highness is suffering from a cold, so I came to visit.”
"Princess, please take a seat." Lan Xin sat down at the side. The maidservant happened to bring tea over and reached out to take it.
"Sorry to trouble you, Princess, but I won't go.”Every word Lan Xuanhan said was just polite.
She furrowed her brows. He was about to become her husband, so why was he still so polite? She did not expect him to ask subconsciously. "This king seems to remember telling the princess last time that I will definitely not marry you.”
It was this result again, so she couldn't help but be excited." You have to give me a reason.”
He shook his head. There was no reason, no reason. He just didn't want to marry her. Who was he lying to? "Does your highness have a girl you like?”
She actually guessed it. Since she had said it out loud, there was no need to hide it. She calmly nodded and admitted that there was another her in her heart. "Lan Xin, ask again, is it Sister Yun 'Er?”
Godfather Liu, who was behind the screen, almost cried out in surprise. Yun 'Er? Could it be General Leng's second daughter, Leng Shuiyun?
"So what if I am?" Lan Xuanhan sat there with a calm expression as if it had nothing to do with him.
"Your highness, could it be that sister Yun 'er cares about her as much as your highness? He would rather be drenched in the rain than kneel for a long night! I don't think so." Lan Xin's voice became louder and louder, and her words became sharper.
Lan Xuanhan was stumped. He believed that Leng Shuiyun cared about him, but he didn't know how much she cared. Lan Xin saw that he was hesitating, so she continued," With your friendship with Sister Yun 'er, why didn't she visit you when you were seriously ill?" Your Highness doesn't know that when you were kneeling outside Jade Dynasty Hall, she had already left the capital.”
Lan Xuanhan, who had been determined not to move, stood up in panic." You said she left?"”
"Leng Shuiyun has already left, and your highness still dares to say that she cares about you?”Lan Xin lost her rationality. At the same time, Lan Xuanhan lost his mind." Old Wei, send the princess out."”
Seeing Lan Xin being pulled away, Godfather Liu quickly came out from behind the screen and patted Third Brother's shoulder. He heard him say," Aren't you going to chase after her? It's a good opportunity."”After saying that, Godfather Liu disappeared like a puff of smoke.
"Old Wei, send someone to find out if Leng Shuiyun really left?”He did not believe that she would leave without saying a word.
The result was often the most disappointing. Old Wei brought back the news that Leng Shuiyun had left for three days.
She left without saying a word. Leng Shuiyun, what do you think I am? He was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood. Before he fell unconscious, he asked," Where are you going?”
Butler Wei almost cried.”
Lan Xuanhan collapsed on the chair and the Prince Cheng residence was in a mess.
