Gongsun Li didn't return the whole night.
For Xi Shi, this result made her feel a mix of emotions.
She imagined the countless kinds of treatment Gongsun Li might encounter tonight, and her heart was hanging high.
In the end…
Xi Shi found the big sister in her heart, Miss Mingkong, and wanted to talk to her.
In fact, Miss Ming Kong, or the empress, was too cold and aloof, and she was not very close to others. This gave Xi Shi a bad impression.
If it wasn't for the fact that she couldn't help herself, Xi Shi wouldn't have chatted with the empress.
But now, she couldn't hold it in anymore.
Xi Shi walked to the empress's room and wanted to knock on the door. However, she realized that the door was ajar and wasn't closed at all. She couldn't help but be stunned.
"What are you looking for me for?"
The empress's frosty and cold voice came from the room, as if she had no emotions at all.
"Sister Ming Kong…"
"You…knew I was coming?"
"So you left the door open for me?"
Xi Shi pushed the door open and asked weakly.
"You're thinking too much."
The empress said calmly,
"This door has never been closed."
Didn't close the door?
Sister Ming Kong doesn't sleep at night?
Xi Shi, who was extremely insecure, could not understand this dangerous move.
She couldn't understand why the empress, who was a top expert in the world, wouldn't use the wooden door as a protective barrier.
To the empress, the most reliable guarantee of safety would always be her incomparably mighty demonic power!
……
"Is there anything you need?"
The empress didn't welcome Xi Shi's arrival.
In the empress's eyes, Xi Shi was just an ignorant and naive girl.
Although their biological age was only two or three years apart, their mental age was worlds apart. There was nothing worth communicating with.
As the empress of the Tang Empire, Wu Zetian's thinking had become rather rational and cold. She had to control her excess emotions so as not to interfere with her judgment.
However…
The empress had yet to realize that because of Pu Qianye's appearance, she had gone against her original intention of maintaining her rationality!
After all, it was not something that the empress would normally do to put aside the political affairs of the Tang Empire and come to Jixia Academy to act as a student.
The empress was also a human, and she would be willful once in a while.
"It's my fault. I disturbed sister's cultivation!”
Xi Shi could tell that the empress was trying to keep people at a distance. She first apologized and then said,
"There's something I want to tell my sister. Ah Li didn't come back last night, so I'm a little worried..."
"Hmm?"
When the empress heard Xi Shi's words, her eyebrows twitched.
Gongsun Li had been called over by Pu Qianye for a private conversation last night, and if she had not returned the entire night…
Didn't that mean…
Gongsun Li spent the night in Pu Qianye's room?
Pu Qianye would never have any scandals with his pursuers…
The empress thought of the information that Shangguan Wan 'er had provided and felt that it was somewhat funny.
"What's there to worry about!"
" Gongsun Li went to Pu Qianye's house last night, not to the wilderness…"
"Nothing will happen!"
the empress said calmly.
Unknowingly, she was also secretly protecting Pu Qianye.
"But…I'm just worried that Mister Pu will…"
Xi Shi couldn't finish her sentence, and her face turned red from embarrassment.
Although she didn't finish her sentence, the empress understood what Xi Shi was worried about.
"Do you think Mr. Pu is a bad person?”
the empress asked.
When Xi Shi heard this, she was stunned and shook her head."
" Of course Mister Pu isn't a bad person…"
"Unfortunately, Ah Li is too beautiful!”
She was afraid that the two of them would start a fire.
The empress slapped her forehead. This girl knew quite a lot!
Just as the empress was worrying about how to send Xi Shi away, Gongsun Li suddenly returned to the small attic.
Gongsun Li, who had slept in the guest room in Pu Qianye's courtyard, felt more relaxed than ever. He was in high spirits, and his pink rabbit ears had become a lot more pink.
"Eh, Ah Li, you're finally back!”
When Xi Shi saw Gongsun Li, she couldn't help but ask excitedly,"
"Ah Li, what did you talk to Mr. Pu about last night? Why did you take so long?"
Gongsun Li patted his head and shook his head."
"I don't remember what Mr. Pu said to me. I just slept in his room…"
Xi Shi and the empress were speechless.
"Well, did you sleep?"
Xi Shi blushed. She felt that Gongsun Li was being too direct.
"Ah, maybe I've been too sleepy recently!”
"I remember walking into Mr. Pu's room last night and falling asleep after saying a few words…"
Gongsun Li didn't know about the complicated thoughts of Xi Shi and the Empress, so he continued to explain with a confused look.
Her words made things worse.
"Mister Pu, it's actually such a person…"
Xi Shi felt that Pu Qianye might have used some despicable means on Gongsun Li…
The empress had the same thoughts as Xi Shi.
However, when she found out that Gongsun Li was still a virgin, she denied this ridiculous idea.
Although this matter sounded very strange, there must be an inside story!
The empress narrowed her eyes. Perhaps she could ask Pu Qianye about this in private?
She wondered if he would tell her the truth.
The empress was looking forward to it.
