In the endless, silent night, in the quiet and gorgeous courtyard, an elegant man stood in front of the house in a daze. The snow-white underwear made of natural silk was warm in winter and cool in summer. It was specially used by the royal family. A set of ready-made clothes cost several thousand taels, which was the expenditure of an ordinary family for nearly 50 years. One could see how valuable it was.
The man's black hair that fell to his waist was disheveled, and his beautiful black hair was blown up by the wind. He had sharp eyebrows and a strong nose bridge. His sexy thin lips were pursed into a line, and his charming phoenix eyes were staring at the sky. His eyes were filled with sadness that made one's heart ache. His slender figure was shrouded in a layer of melancholy, making one unable to help but want to get close to him, to soothe his melancholy, to make him happy and happy.
The man stood there for the whole night in a daze. When the sun rose in the east, his undergarments were covered with dew. He was still staring at the horizon like a statue, not moving at all, as if he was waiting or sending him off.
The servant girl who had woken up early to serve him had just stepped into the courtyard when she was shocked to see the man's figure. She hurriedly went forward to bow and pay her respects. Her voice was filled with doubt and surprise." Greetings, Your Highness."”
The man did not react, as if he did not notice the movement in front of him. The servant girls were half-squatting, not knowing what to do. They did not dare to get up if their master did not say anything, nor did they dare to remind him. However, half-squatting was hard work. They looked at each other, wondering what was wrong with his highness. It seemed like he had been standing in the courtyard for the whole night. Also, where was his highness 'black cat?
Out of the three of them, one of them was standing straight while the other two were half-squatting. Time seemed to have stopped at this moment. The two half-squatting people gradually lost their strength. Their legs were trembling, but they gritted their teeth and persevered.
At this moment, Housekeeper Zhu stepped into the courtyard. When he saw this strange scene, he stopped in his tracks. Then, he went forward and bowed to the man. He stood up straight and turned to the two servant girls whose legs were trembling. He waved his hand to signal them to leave. The servant girls heaved a sigh of relief and immediately ran out of the courtyard. It seemed that they were fleeing.
"Wangye, Wangye!" Housekeeper Zhu's voice became louder and louder, finally waking up the man who had lost his soul.
Gu Mo Xi withdrew her gaze from the sky and grabbed Housekeeper Zhu's arm with both hands, shaking it violently. Her magnetic and mellow voice was filled with urgency, surprise, and disbelief." Housekeeper Zhu, Mo 'er can talk. Did you know that it can talk?"”
Poor Housekeeper Zhu's old bones almost fell apart from the shaking. Before he could get used to it, another clap of thunder exploded in his ear. What, what did His Highness say? That black cat can speak?! Housekeeper Zhu squeezed out three words from his mouth," Your, Your Highness.”
Gu Mo Xi was shocked and quickly let go. Seeing Housekeeper Zhu fall, she quickly bent down to help him up and apologized with guilt," Housekeeper Zhu, I was too excited. Are you okay?"”
"No, it's fine. Your Highness has defeated this servant.”Housekeeper Zhu, who was standing still, rolled up his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He said respectfully," Your Highness, it's time for the morning court session. Let Ya 'er come and serve Black Cat."”
The latter part of the sentence was completely out of Housekeeper Zhu's selfishness. When his daughter came back the day before yesterday, His Highness had said that he did not need her to serve him anymore. His daughter did not want to miss this opportunity, so she begged him to plead with His Highness. He could not interfere with His Highness's affairs, so he could only try his best. Whether it succeeded or not was up to His Highness. In fact, Housekeeper Zhu hoped that it would fail. This way, his daughter would give up.
Speaking of the black cat, the surprise on Gu Mo Xi's face was no longer there. Instead, it was replaced by a strong sense of loss and sadness. Her phoenix-like eyes were dull and her entire person appeared to be dejected. Her thin lips were slightly open." Housekeeper Zhu, Mo 'er has left."”After saying that, she walked into the room with a body covered in darkness. She claimed to be ill and did not go to the morning court today.
Housekeeper Zhu was stunned. Before he could recover from the news of the black cat's departure, he heard the king's order to not attend the morning court today. He sighed with regret. He thought that the black cat was wild and difficult to tame. The king's good food and drink could not compare to the attraction of the outside world. This heartless little thing.
King Jing claimed to be ill and did not attend court for two days in a row. This was something that had never happened before. All the officials in the court were guessing the king's intentions. Was he really ill or was he faking it? Should they visit him? What gifts should they bring? All of these things were related to their official career. Of course, this was only a part of the officials who wanted to climb up the social ladder. Others were watching from afar and were not convinced by him.
When the news of King Jing's illness reached the ears of the women who admired him, their hearts were in chaos. Those who had connections brought tonics to visit him, while those who had no connections asked their servant girls to keep an eye out for news. They were still after the position of the Princess Consort. Of course, they were genuinely concerned about King Jing. After all, King Jing was such a young and talented man. It would be strange if no woman liked him. Unfortunately, the gates of the Prince's mansion were closed, and the visitors were all persuaded to leave.
After noon, the most powerful person in Tiansheng Kingdom, the emperor, Gu Moran, brought his personal eunuch, TinyMeatball, out of the palace to visit his younger brother. At the entrance of the King Jing Residence, they happened to bump into the Martial King, Gu Moyan, who was also here to visit his brother. The two brothers walked into the residence with their arms around each other's shoulders. They said that they were here to visit, but they did not bring any gifts. TinyMeatball's mouth could not help but twitch. His Majesty did not have the image of an emperor.
They had been to King Jing's Imperial Residence many times, but the two brothers were still amazed by the pleasant decorations in the residence. They were led to the door of the study, and Housekeeper Zhu bowed and left. Gu Moran and Gu Moyan entered the study one after the other. They saw Gu Moxi sitting at the desk reading official documents. Her expression was focused, and her expression was normal. She didn't look sick at all. So they really didn't understand what he was up to.
Gu Moran was worthy of being called a fox by the Prime Minister. She didn't notice it at first glance, but she immediately sensed that something was wrong. The younger brother in front of her seemed to be focused but was actually in a daze. He didn't even notice them coming in.
The servant girl came in with the teacup and put it down. She bent her knees and retreated silently. The two brothers sat down separately. Gu Mo Xi still didn't notice the two people in the study. She looked at each other, and Gu Mo 'an slightly clenched her fist and coughed a few times. Only then did she come back to her senses.
"Big brother, third brother, when did you guys come?”There was no lack of surprise in her tone. Gu Mo Xi really didn't notice when they arrived.
Gu Moyan rolled his eyes and said bluntly," I just arrived. Where is Second Brother feeling unwell?”
Gu Moxi felt better because of his brother's concern, but when he thought of Mo 'er leaving, his heart was still heavy. He knew that his body was fine, so he felt bad for making his relatives worry." Eldest Brother, Third Brother, don't worry. I'm fine."”
"That's good. By the way, why don't I see Black Cat?”Gu Moyan asked casually when he didn't see the black cat. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his second brother's lonely expression. He blinked and turned to his eldest brother, Gu Moran, asking what was wrong with his eyes.
Gu Moyan gave him a look that said,"How would I know?" Gu Moran casually asked Gu Moxi what she was looking at. A subtle smile flashed across her eyes, as if she had found something fun.
"Nothing, it's just some official documents related to the Autumn Examinations.”Gu Mo Xi replied. Her eyes fell on the official document in front of her and her hand froze. Her handsome face was slightly embarrassed as she quickly turned the official document to the other direction. Her earlobes were slightly hot.
After a few seconds of silence, a burst of hearty laughter broke out in the study. Gu Moran looked at his third brother dotingly, shook his head, and turned to look at his second brother. His red phoenix eyes were full of worry. His second brother actually didn't notice that the document was upside down. What happened to him?
"Alright, Third Brother, Second Brother, where's that black cat?”She stopped Gu Moyan softly and asked about the black cat as well.
Gu Mo Xi was silent for a while before she finally told the truth sadly," Mo 'er left."”
He really looked like a child who had lost something he loved. The two brothers were stunned for a moment. Gu Moran sighed at how long it had been since she had seen her second brother like this, while Gu Moyan sighed that his second brother also had such a side to him.
The study room was silent for a while again. Gu Moran suddenly said," Second Brother, have you changed too much about Black Cat? In the past, you wouldn't miss court for two days in a row.”
"That's right. I heard that Second Brother even found the best chef and embroiderer for Black Cat. It's just a pet.”Gu Moyan agreed. He had been surprised for a while when he heard the news.
"What do you mean it's just a pet? Mo 'er is different from other pets. It spoke before it left last night.”Gu Mo Xi didn't want to see her beloved black cat suffer any grievances, even if it was her brother, so she quickly argued for it.
The black cat could talk? The two brothers were shocked by this news. The innocent Gu Moyan was extremely dissatisfied with why he was not so lucky. The eldest brother, Gu Moran, was not so simple. A black cat that could talk was most likely a monster. Seeing that it had not yet cultivated into a human form, it had already charmed the second brother until he lost himself. When it cultivated into a human form, it would be even worse. No, he had to be prepared. If the black cat did not come back, then so be it. If it did, he would not let it go.
At this moment, in the immortal realm, the divine dragon brought Lan Xi and landed outside the Southern Heavenly Gate. The diamond-shaped dragon eye glanced at the black cat beside it disdainfully. It exhaled dragon qi and said in a deep voice," Hurry up and transform into a human."”
Lan Xi did not resist. With a flash of red light, she transformed into her human form. Her eyebrows were dark and her nose was straight. Her pink lips were gently pursed, making people want to kiss her. Her skin was like jade, and the most unforgettable thing was her eyes. Her palm-sized face was inlaid with a pair of cat eyes. It was as dark as ink and as deep as a whirlpool. A hint of slyness flashed inadvertently. It was easy to imagine how shocking it would be when these eyes met you, making you feel that you would have nowhere to hide in front of these eyes.
Her slender figure and graceful curves made the man go crazy. She was wearing a pink backless dress with two straps tied behind her neck, revealing her snow-white back. A light blue denim jacket wrapped around her round buttocks, revealing her slender legs. Her wavy black hair was tied behind her head. Her black hair and snow-white back were both striking.
Her snow-white arms naturally hung by her sides, and her white and slender wrist was adorned with a dazzling diamond bracelet. A similarly snow-white diamond belt was tied around her waist, and her small, jade-like feet were worn in exquisite and beautiful high heels, revealing her cute and mischievous jade toes.
The woman was gentle and docile. Her pink lips outlined a faint smile. She was just standing there, but people could not take their eyes off her. She was harmless and dangerous. This was Lan Xi.
"Hmph, shameless." A disdainful voice sounded in her ear. Lan Xi looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the divine dragon immediately looked away. There was still a red flush on both sides of the dragon's head that had not faded in time. She smiled slightly and did not care.
Arriving at the majestic and solemn Soaring Heaven King Palace, Lan Xi bowed respectfully to the Heavenly Emperor who was sitting on the throne. She placed one hand behind her waist and the other hand on her abdomen. She bent down slightly and her voice rang out in the hall." Lan Xi greets the Heavenly Emperor.”
It was a simple action, but no one could detect any impoliteness. The Celestial Thearch's deep gaze fell on the woman below. As the memorial said, she was dressed strangely, but she was undeniably very beautiful. The young immortals in the hall were infatuated. This demon could not be underestimated. His loud voice echoed in the hall," Lan Xi, listen up. I grant you the position of Ghost Lord and the purple crystal violin. I hope you will do your best for the Upper Realm."”
As soon as he finished speaking, the immortals were in a commotion. It turned out that the Celestial Thearch had already made up his mind and let them speak. He had said that there was no need to ask them about this kind of thing. In the midst of the commotion, Lan Xi took the violin that floated down from above her head. A hint of imperceptible disdain flashed across her thick black cat eyes. It was just taking her instrument back from another world and returning it to its original owner. She would not be so stupid as to be grateful.
