"Little Xue Cheng, don't worry, I'm fine! Alright, I'm still a little tired, so there's no need for breakfast.”Su Lingruo turned around and went back to her room, closing the door and going back to sleep.
Not returning for the entire night and being so happy after returning, perhaps Master had met the Emperor at night. Xue Cheng was thinking about the encounter between her master and Nangong Mingye last night. Her mind was filled with images that were not suitable for children. The corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously, and her face was flushed.
When Su Ling woke up, it was already noon. After lunch, she decided to explore the route near the Cold Palace so that she could escape from the palace in the future. Unknowingly, they arrived in front of a courtyard that had been abandoned for a long time.
No one cared about the courtyard, and weeds were growing everywhere. Because it was already midsummer, the wild trees were lush and green.
The vermilion paint on the eaves of the door was peeling off, and the idle furniture in the courtyard was filled with a rotten and damp smell of dust.
However, when Su Lingruo saw this scene, she actually felt pity for him.
He was alone in this chaotic world that seemed to be bustling but was filled with undercurrents. When could he grow as wild as this strong tree?
She felt a rare sadness in her heart, but she felt relieved when she came to this deserted courtyard.
In the palace, she really had no choice. Now, she didn't even have someone to gamble with. These palace servants now hid far away when they saw her as if they had seen a plague.
Just as Su Lingruo was sighing, she could vaguely see a long shadow through the faint shadow of the leaves under the sunlight.
Who else was in this courtyard?
Shadow turned around and was stunned for a moment when he saw Su Lingruo.
"You only woke up now after drinking so much wine?”The familiar voice was deep and magnetic, and the long green shadow was as elegant as a bamboo.
For some reason, Su Lingruo felt a burst of joy in her heart.
The Preceptor's slender fingers were slowly tucked behind his back. His dark eyebrows were of a suitable shade, revealing a faint heroic spirit. His words were faintly gentle. For a moment, Su Ling was a little fascinated by him.
Seeing Su Lingruo staring at him, Xiao Qianchen's lips curled up slightly under the veil. He looked a little amused.
"Why is Ruo Zhaoyi looking at my master with such infatuation?”
Su Lingruo blinked a few times and said generously,""Because you have a good figure and temperament.”
The Preceptor was speechless.
Su Lingruo looked relaxed and free.
"What is Imperial Preceptor doing in this palace?”
"I'll do whatever you do." Xiao Qianchen was referring to the summer scenery in front of him. Who knew that Su Lingruo's purpose was to escape the palace and survey the terrain? She had accidentally entered the deep palace garden.
Su Lingruo beamed with joy. She could run into him when she couldn't sleep, and she could run into him when she woke up.”
"It's indeed not easy. In this deep palace where everyone is worried, it's all deception. Everyone is squeezing towards the emperor, but you're quite strange, you like to come to these desolate and wild places.”
"Accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. I think that a few days ago, I was still the concubine that everyone said was the most doted on by the emperor. Now, with a word, I was banished to the cold palace. If I were to go to his side again, the next time I might lose my head. I feel that this place is much more comfortable than being by the emperor's side.”
"Aren't you afraid that I'll tell the Emperor?" Xiao Qianchen asked.”
Su Lingruo wasn't worried that Xiao Qianchen would tell the Emperor. Otherwise, he wouldn't have let her stay in his residence last night.
"As the saying goes, honest advice is unpleasant to the ear. Even if you tell the emperor, the current emperor is wise and won't care about these.”After he finished speaking, he saw her light footsteps, her slender waist held tightly, and she leaned against the pavilion.
"You and I hit it off so well that we can be considered friends in this palace. Why don't we call each other by our names in private?”Xiao Qianchen smiled, his bright eyes shining with a beautiful aura.
"Alright, I dislike complicated and cumbersome etiquette the most.”Su Lingruo's face was filled with joy. She leaped to Xiao Qianchen's side and elbowed his strong arm.
"Chenchen, since we're friends now, why don't you take off your veil and let me see what you look like?”
" Cough…" Xiao Qianchen said." You can call me Qianchen. As for my appearance, it's better if you don't see it."”
A cool breeze swept across the lake, mixed with the fragrance of the leaves evaporated by the summer sun. Xiao Qianchen could faintly smell the fragrance of flowers coming from Su Lingruo's body. He took a step back from Su Lingruo.
Su Lingruo pouted and said with a regretful expression,"Don't tell me you look scary. Don't be afraid, I'm mentally strong.”
"…I'm fine."
"Then let me take a look." If Su Ling was really curious about Xiao Qianchen's appearance, just look at his celestial appearance. Tsk tsk, his face must not be bad either. He must be a peerless beauty.
"Actually, I didn't want you to see it for your own good. You're from Yuehai Kingdom, so you might not know this, but no one is allowed to see the Imperial Advisor's face. If his real face is revealed, something bad will happen in the country.”
"…Are you sure you're not bluffing me?"”He wanted to die just by looking at him? What a joke.
"Whether what I said is true or not, you can ask anyone.”

Everyone knew that the Tianxiao Sword was the legendary treasure of the Zhongtian Jade Palace. If the Tianxiao Sword was in Fu Zhisheng's hands, it meant that he and his Divine Flying Team had entered the Heavenly Jade Palace. There must be secret manuals in his luggage.
Ever since Nangong Moran released the news that Grand Preceptor Fu had obtained the Tianxiao Sword and was resting his luggage in Qi City, it attracted the attention of all the pugilistic people in the world. They wanted to capture Fu Zhisheng alive.
Fu Zhisheng, who had just arrived at the Yunlai Inn in Qi City, sensed the tension in the air.
Most of the people in the inn were middle-aged men in their thirties or forties. They were dressed plainly and some wore straw hats. The brim of their hats was lowered so that passersby could only see their thin lips.
Grand Preceptor Fu went to the top floor and only called the shopkeeper after a while.
"We've been working hard recently and don't want outsiders to disturb us. Here's five hundred taels of silver. We'll take care of this shop and leave tomorrow.”
The shopkeeper had never done such a good deal before. Five hundred taels of silver was more than enough to rent more than twenty rooms in this shop for half a year. He was beaming with joy, and the two long and slender mustaches on his lips were pulling and waving.
"Thank you, sir. I'll send someone to ask the original owner to leave.”
At night, the cicadas were still chirping tirelessly. The voice of the night watchman came from not far away."The weather is dry. Be careful not to misfire."
In the room, Grand Preceptor Fu and the others didn't dare to sleep deeply and slept with their clothes closed.
The moon was hidden by the clouds, and the night seemed especially dark. A black shadow quietly sneaked into the night and disappeared from the roof of the Cloud Inn.# Review: ** Time:09120186: 03PM #
